Upon hearing Chen Yiyang’s words, the secretary imdiately felt a headache coming on.
A few days ago, the biggest news in West Capital City was about the suspected last Prince of Persia’s ancient tomb being looted and filled.
Recently, West Capital City has been having a heated discussion on whether to increase compensation for land contractors and owners when a tomb is discovered on comrcial land.
Now, when Chen Yang ntioned that an important ancient tomb was also found on his contracted land.
The secretary could only ask in a very gentle tone.
"Do you have any ideas on how to resolve this matter?"
After hearing the secretary’s question.
Chen Yang imdiately said, "I hope the city governnt can give another piece of land to compensate for my loss."
When a tomb is discovered on land, the governnt compensates the original owner with another piece of land.
West Capital City has a clear policy on this.
Of course, in actual implentation, this policy is often inconsistent.
But now that Chen Yiyang has made this request, it’s evidently feasible.
So the secretary said, "Agricultural land in West Capital City has always been tight. It might be challenging to give you a good piece of agricultural land right away."
"If there’s no agricultural land, industrial land would be fine."
When Chen Yiyang said this, the secretary imdiately sensed sothing and tentatively asked, "Which piece of land are you interested in?"
"The piece of land next to the Aiya Electric Vehicle factory," Chen Yiyang directly revealed.
These matters should be stated as clearly as possible, without being vague. Otherwise, things could take a peculiar turn.
"I can’t give you an imdiate answer on this matter right now. But I assure you we will do our best to resolve it."
The secretary thought for a mont, unable to give Chen Yiyang a confird answer on the spot.
Because too many interests are involved behind this issue, he couldn’t make a decision alone.
"Alright, then I will thank the secretary in advance." Chen Yiyang wasn’t anxious either.
After that, both he and the secretary tacitly avoided further discussion on Madam Wang Rui’s notebooks.
After concluding the eting with the secretary, Chen Yiyang drove to see Old Yu.
Upon entering Old Yu’s house, Old Yu had just hung up the phone.
"You kid, you went to see the secretary driving my car," Old Yu pointed at Chen Yiyang as soon as they t.
"It wasn’t intentional, I only have your car in West Capital City."
Chen Yiyang joked in explanation.
"The secretary just called here. Said they agree in principle, but it needs to go through a eting.
But it should be sorted in just a few days. Once it’s discussed at the eting, you can go sign the contract and get that piece of land."
After Old Yu finished speaking, he thought for a mont and reminded Chen Yiyang, "By the way, don’t say anything publicly until the contract is signed."
"I understand."
"You can take back this inkstone this ti, but I’ll keep the porcelain pot from last ti."
Old Yu took out Wu Changshuo’s inkstone and handed it to Chen Yiyang.
"Old Yu, what about the car?"
"You can keep using it for now. I’ve gathered the funds. In a couple of days, I’ll transfer the remaining money from buying the comic books to you."
"That’s fine." Chen Yiyang said with a smile, "I thought you were planning to take back the car and have walk everywhere."
"Don’t hint around, kid."
Old Yu pointed at Chen Yiyang and said, "Now’s the perfect chaos to settle personal vendettas. If you don’t strike now, when will you?"
"Are you saying?" Chen Yiyang wasn’t sure what Old Yu ant.
"I’ve paved the road for you. That guy was unlucky enough to let people find out about . So, since that’s the case, send him along."
With Old Yu’s words, Chen Yiyang naturally felt more confident.
Early the next day, after confirming that today’s tip on picking up bargains was unimportant, he imdiately drove to see Chairman Liu of Aiya Electric Vehicle.
"I saw you on the TV news yesterday. I thought about giving you a call but feared you were busy and didn’t want to disturb you." Chairman Liu was very courteous in speaking to Chen Yiyang.
"Are you referring to the news about Madam Wang Rui’s notebooks?" Chen Yiyang inquired.
"Yes, exactly, that news piece." Chairman Liu eagerly said to Chen Yiyang,
"I saw online discussions. Madam Wang Rui chose to donate her notebooks to her hotown’s school before passing.
But the school sold her lifeti of hard work, the notebooks, as trash.
Now, the notebooks are proven to contain a formula that can change the mathematics world. Netizens are advising you, the notebook holder, to donate to Imperial University, rather than the school in West Capital.
Can you hint to what you are thinking?"
Seeing Chairman Liu’s pleading eyes, Chen Yiyang took a sip of tea, smiling as he said, "Are you thinking I should use this to barter with the West Capital City Governnt to see if I can lease the land next to Aiya Electric Vehicle factory?"
"That’s exactly what I think." Chairman Liu then candidly spoke.
Directly addressing Chen Yiyang, "Brother, if you can establish a bridge or take to talk to the secretary, we can negotiate any demands you have."
"You previously ntioned that Zhao Cheng ca to see you, asking for shares from you?" Chen Yiyang, facing Chairman Liu’s eager eyes, instead brought up another matter.
"Yes, he directly ca to my office to discuss." After Chairman Liu said this, he added in a whisper, "There’s a recording."
After hearing Chairman Liu’s words, Chen Yiyang instinctively glanced around.
Frightened, Director Liu hurriedly promised, "I thought he didn’t seem like a good person that day, so I recorded it just in case. Normally, here in this office, I discuss private matters with others, so the recording is in case I’m ever caught and there isn’t enough evidence."
After hearing Director Liu’s words, Chen Yiyang cald down, thinking to himself that he hadn’t said anything illegal, so he also stopped looking around.
He directly said to Director Liu, "Do you think Zhao Cheng’s behavior involves extortion?"
"Are you saying?" Director Liu looked at Chen Yiyang incredulously.
"Use being extorted and blackmail as a reason to report to the police."
After hearing Chen Yiyang’s words, Director Liu was silent for a while.
He was unsure whether to offend Zhao Cheng and the people behind him just to have Chen Yiyang help make connections.
Seeing Director Liu not speak, Chen Yiyang got up to leave.
Director Liu hurriedly stopped Chen Yiyang.
"Just be honest with , have you arranged everything, just waiting for to spark it off?"
Chen Yiyang still said nothing.
After another mont of silence, Director Liu slapped his thigh.
"I’ve been around in West Capital for so many years, how can I be afraid of a petty scoundrel like him?"
That night, Director Liu reported to the police.
Then Chen Yiyang also ca forward to testify that Zhao Cheng had attempted to extort him too.
Faced with this sudden situation.
Because it involved the largest electric vehicle manufacturer in West Capital. And recently, West Capital has repeatedly been trending due to various negative news.
Several leaders in West Capital City really didn’t want to see the city’s na hanging on national trending news anymore.
Thus, the West Capital City Governnt quickly made a decision.
First arrest Zhao Cheng and then slowly gather evidence to convict him.
Soone like Zhao Cheng, who mingles around daily, is respected by everyone.
Mainly because it’s unclear how many people are behind him.
But now that he’s fallen, all those who had grudges erged.
Chen Yiyang estimated that this guy wouldn’t be out for at least ten years.
A few days later, the West Capital City Governnt decided to compensate Chen Yiyang with that piece of industrial land next to Aiya Electric Vehicle due to the loss caused by discovering an ancient tomb in the land he contracted.
Of course, Chen Yiyang also had to put in quite a bit of money, which ant signing a new land lease contract with the city governnt.
He then turned around and rented the land to Aiya Electric Vehicle.
An eight-year lease contract totaling forty million, Aiya Electric Vehicle paid in full in one go.
With the new land, Aiya Electric Vehicle also signed a long-term electric motorcycle trade contract with Gena.
And Chen Yiyang could earn a commission based on the transaction volu between both parties in the future.
The cash in Chen Yiyang’s hands now directly reached sixty million.
If he also considers his fixed assets.
It finally felt like a small goal was achieved.
Of course, his gains in West Capital City hadn’t ended yet.
"I helped you and stirred up the news, making the West Capital City Governnt compensate you with a piece of land. Shouldn’t you repay now?"
Isis and Chen Yiyang t at a café.
The mont they t, Isis couldn’t wait for Chen Yiyang to sell her the Ancient Egyptian Stone Tablet he had.
"I’m not interested in antiques from other countries," Chen Yiyang said. "As long as the price is right, I’ll sell."
"One million." Isis offered a price she considered high on the spot.
For a regular stone tablet, a million is already a premium price.
But for Chen Yiyang, who already knew the significance of the stone tablet to Isis from Old Yu.
One million, of course, wasn’t enough.
So Chen Yiyang responded with silence.
"Two million, that’s all my savings. Sell the tablet, you also hope that I can bring back our Ancient Egypt historical artifacts to my country, right?" Isis pleaded.
Seeing this, Chen Yiyang knew he couldn’t remain silent.
So he said, "One day I was reading the news and saw a story from an international political refugee aid organization with your photo in it. Were you involved in such activities when you were younger?"
As soon as Chen Yiyang spoke.
Isis imdiately understood that her secret was out.
If buying the stone tablet as an individual, two million was indeed all she could afford.
But if the organization behind her was to buy it, two million would be far from enough.
So Isis temporarily left to make a call.
Over an hour later, when Chen Yiyang was nearly dozing off from checking his phone.
Isis ca back.
"We invested in a food factory in Shancheng, valued at about forty million. This is our final offer."
