Chapter 1172: Chapter 1170: Lin Zheng
Under Lin Zheng’s enthusiastic hospitality, Shu Ya and the others first headed to their resting place. Looking at the incredibly luxurious hotel, Hao Jian glanced at Shu Ya and smiled, “It seems this Lin Zheng knows how to handle affairs; at least he’s giving us face.”
“Moreover, this guy is quite a seasoned player.”
The reason for this comnt was based on his own observations. After all, he had co with Shu Ya, so naturally, assessing people was sothing he had to do alongside.
And at first glance, when Hao Jian saw Lin Zheng, he felt a hint of goodwill, as if this person naturally invoked positive feelings in others.
Later, while chatting with Shu Ya and him on the road, Hao Jian gained a new understanding of his deanor. Furthermore, when he looked at Shu Ya, his eyes revealed only professional dedication without any other implications.
Unlike before, whenever Shu Ya went out, mbers of the opposite sex would either show scorching or blatantly revealing gazes, none of which he saw in Lin Zheng.
If he had to describe it, Lin Zheng’s character was as upright and forthright as his na implied. But what puzzled Hao Jian was why, despite such a person’s existence, were there frequent disappearances in Hao’an City?
Was it their own fault or sothing else?
Hao Jian never believed those police officers were truly incompetent. To beco a police officer, no one could be an idiot, yet every month, there were at least five or six disappearances, sotis rising to over twenty.
So many cases, there should be so clues, right? But the result was that they never found any of the missing people.
Could it be because Lin Zheng was rely a district-level secretary?
Hao Jian mused internally that Lin Zheng was just a district-level secretary in Jingtian District, Hao’an City, with not much power.
“Hehe, that’s why I chose to collaborate with them.”
Getting Hao Jian’s affirmation made Shu Ya very happy. Holding Hao Jian’s waist, she said with a giggle, “Secretary Lin suggested we rest for a bit. At one in the afternoon, we’ll head to the governnt office for a small eting to resolve so minor issues. Once that’s done, we’ll visit the mining area.”
Upon hearing this, Hao Jian nodded, “Mm, that’s good. But the weather is changing, so it’s best done quickly; otherwise, today might get delayed.”
“Okay!”
Shu Ya responded, then released Hao Jian’s waist and ran to her room to rest. Hao Jian found a sofa nearby, closed his eyes slightly.
At one in the afternoon…
“Have you all prepared the docunts?”
Shu Ya stood by Hao Jian, looking at the six employees in front of her, three n and three won, her tone calm.
“President, we have everything. Don’t worry, this is a big task for the company, and we’ll complete it perfectly!”
A man patted his chest, confidently assuring Shu Ya.
“What about you all?”
Hearing Shu Ya’s voice, the other five nodded together, their eyes brimming with confidence. Becoming company elites wasn’t just about their academic credentials but their competence as well.
Over the years, the wealth they’ve created for the company ranks in the top ten, and Shu Ya, being generous, bought a villa for each of them in Hua City’s downtown area.
Because of this, they were even more willing to work tirelessly for the company. After all, where else could one find such a good boss?
“Let’s go, Secretary Lin is waiting for us.”
After finishing, Shu Ya linked arms with Hao Jian and led the way into the governnt office building. The six employees, seeing Shu Ya and Hao Jian’s intimate manner, thought nothing of it and followed closely behind.
The long-ti employees naturally knew Hao Jian’s identity and his strength. Without him, there would be no Shu Ya Group.
As for this golden couple, they couldn’t help but wish them well.
“Secretary Lin, the guests have arrived.”
As Shu Ya and the others entered the office hall, Lin Zheng received a call from the lobby staff at the top floor. Upon hearing the word “guest,” he knew who it was and quickly responded, “Please invite the guests in right away.”
“Okay!”
Lin Zheng nodded, then seed to rember sothing missing and added, “Also, have Han Lin and Ouyang Lan co up and tell them the guests have arrived.”
“Understood, Secretary.”
Ending the call, Lin Zheng stood up, left his office, and headed towards another room on the sa floor. On the top floor, there was a eting room, the most prestigious in the entire office building.
“Now we just wait for the guests to arrive.”
Upon reaching this eting room, prepared long in advance, Lin Zheng’s eyes glowed with a faint light, his hand clenched slightly, “This ti, we should be able to resolve everything with this issue…”
With that, his voice echoed within the eting room, his gaze deep, imbued with a tinge of sorrow.
“Secretary Lin.”
Arriving in the eting room first weren’t Hao Jian and the others, but a man and a woman. The man was tall and slender, with a resolute face — this was Han Lin, Lin Zheng’s right-hand man. As for the woman, though already married, she still exuded charm — she was naturally Ouyang Lan.
Having followed Lin Zheng for over ten years, her husband was even Lin Zheng’s brother. There were multiple opportunities for her to be promoted, but she turned them all down, because in the hearts of the three of them, there was an emotional knot. Until this knot was untied, they would not be transferred from here.
“The guests are arriving soon, let’s wait a bit.”
The two nodded, then walked to Lin Zheng’s side and sat down.
“Secretary Lin.”
A minute later, Shu Ya first walked into the eting room, saw the three people already present, and smiled slightly.
“Please take a seat, everyone.”
Lin Zheng nodded, stood up smiling, and gestured to the seats beside him.
Soon, Shu Ya and her entourage sat down directly, and without any pleasantries, Shu Ya imdiately began the discussion on the matter at hand.
Half an hour later…
“President Shu, we hope you can resolve the issues with this mining area quickly. If road construction is needed, our governnt will assist so that you can start operations as soon as possible.”
“Secretary Lin, once the road is accessible, we will naturally comnce the mining operations. However, before extraction, we need to inspect the site first.”
“That would be good.”
The dozen or so people negotiated together and, for their respective interests, made appropriate compromises. No major issues arose, and the cooperation details were quickly finalized.
Typically, in such mining tenders, the governnt takes the lead, and businesses invest in shares. However, the governnt primarily provides legal support and so essential supplies, but not too much.
After an hour of discussions, it was nearing 2:20 in the afternoon. Seeing that it was getting late, after the discussions concluded, Shu Ya stood up and stated her requests to Lin Zheng.
With Lin Zheng’s consent, the group chatted and laughed as they went downstairs, got into the cars, and headed toward the mining area.
“President Shu, Chairman Hao, the mountain where the mining area is located has an altitude of 361 ters, which is relatively high. We’ve discovered that many of the minerals are on the surface, indicating it’s a rich mine. Once it is mined and refined, we can obtain nearly a hundred tons of minerals.”
Han Lin, who was behind Lin Zheng, Hao Jian, and Shu Ya, held a docunt in his hand, flipped through it, and explained to the three while looking at the bare hill in front of them.
This explanation was mainly for Hao Jian, as he knew that Lin Zheng and Shu Ya were already aware of the situation, but the Chairman Hao referred to by Lin Zheng hadn’t known until now.
“This mountain…”
Hao Jian looked at the mountain, his eyes flickering with faint light. Previously, Shu Ya had ntioned that the minerals inside this mountain belonged to a kind of rare mineral, an exceedingly peculiar type, looking like jade but with a tallic luster. However, experints showed that jewelry made from this mineral had…
…a stronger health benefit than jade. If jade’s beneficial level to the human body is one, then this mineral is three.
However, inside this mountain, Hao Jian sensed a slight hint of danger, but it was not a major concern.
“Bare…”
Looking at the mountain devoid of scenic beauty, Hao Jian felt sowhat speechless inside, curious as to how these people had only just discovered minerals on this mountain; especially since, as Shu Ya ntioned, they were rare minerals.
Yet, upon observing the three of them, Hao Jian pondered slightly, sensing there might be so hidden reasons.
“Let’s go!”
Lin Zheng nodded and took the lead in heading up the mountain.
“Let’s move.”
Seeing Lin Zheng, Hao Jian smiled, shook his head, took Shu Ya’s hand, and walked alongside Lin Zheng, while the others, noticing the three leaders move, naturally followed.
“Boom!”
As if heaven was playing a trick on them, they had just prepared to head up the mountain when suddenly thunder sounded from the sky, and the already gloomy weather instantly turned pitch black, as if night had suddenly fallen.
The sky engulfed in dark clouds, after a few more claps of thunder, torrential rain poured down quickly onto the ground, splashing mud everywhere.
“Damn!”
Seeing the weather, Hao Jian inwardly cursed. Why now of all tis? Isn’t the weather just ssing with them when they are about to head up the mountain?!
More importantly, none of the dozen people had umbrellas, so when the rain started falling, they hurriedly ran back…
“Boom…”
As they were sprinting away, Hao Jian suddenly heard an extrely faint sound. At the sa mont, all the hair on his body stood up, and a vague sense of danger abruptly ca upon him!
“Why is my luck so bad!”
When Hao Jian turned his head to look, his expression slightly changed.
