240: Chapter 240 Seeking Care 240: Chapter 240 Seeking Care After having so drinks, Sun Xiaozhen turned to Ji Yang and said, “Actually, everyone ca here this ti seeking your care and protection.”
Ji Yang looked at the few of them and said, “We are all old classmates.
You ca to help when I needed it.
Tell , what’s the matter?”
With a sigh, Guo Song said, “Old Ji, the situation is like this.
As you know, our family is in the real estate business, which involves dealing with all sorts of parties, and unavoidably, with so officials as well.
There have been so many changes suddenly in the province, and several people from our family have gotten into trouble.
Although I’m not central to it, I’ve still been implicated to so extent.”
Ji Yang didn’t understand and asked, “What have you been implicated in?”
Sun Xiaozhen explained, “Their eldest uncle and second uncle have been put away, and his dad has also been sowhat affected.
Luckily, he didn’t get put away, but I’m afraid there’s not much left of their family wealth.
Old Guo used so of his money to build this folk village here and hasn’t been affected.
However, this once-rich playboy has only this bit of money left.
If it’s taken away, then there will really be nothing left.”
“Old Guo, this isn’t too bad for you.
As long as you do well here, you’ll have a decent life,” soone comnted.
“Old Ji, if it weren’t for people sparing out of respect for you, I’d probably be finished,” Guo Song replied.
“They said that since I’m investing with you here, they let off.
Nevertheless, I have offended quite a few people back in the provincial city.”
Ji Yang suddenly understood.
These junior masters all had their own circles.
When they were influential, naturally there were those who were not.
Now that these others were rising, they were thinking of settling scores with them.
Ji Yang then turned to Wei Min and Qian Yongping.
Seeing Ji Yang look over, Wei Min gave a wry smile and said, “Although I tend not to cause trouble, the changes in the provincial city this ti are too significant.
I have been sowhat affected, so the next step for can only be to develop here in Qingyuan Village.”
Qian Yongping said, “I’m in a similar situation.
Anyway, the family business is almost ruined, only a small part remains.
Before, they looked down on my ventures here, but now, many people want to take away my investnts here, so today, everyone is here seeking so help from you.”
“Sun Xiaozhen, shouldn’t your Sun Family be stronger than ?” Ji Yang looked at Sun Xiaozhen.
Sun Xiaozhen said, “Although I belong to the Sun Family, everyone knows that I’m just a side branch, as peripheral as they co.
Who would give any face?”
Ji Yang understood in his heart that Sun Xiaozhen’s situation was indeed awkward.
Being part of the Sun Family, her branch had not benefitted much from the family, and she could not help these few old classmates even if she wanted to.
“How do you need to help you?”
“We don’t want you to do anything specific,” they said.
“Just occasionally show that you are on good terms with us, and that will suffice.”
Ji Yang laughed and said, “What kind of big shot am I, for them to give face?”
Sun Xiaozhen responded, “Don’t say that, your influence is stronger than any of ours.
Just say it, will you look after them?”
“Of course,” Ji Yang assured.
“Rest easy, as long as you’re with , no one can touch you.”
Ji Yang had also learned a bit about his own situation lately.
Many families owed him favors, and even among the new leaders, there were several who had an obligation to him.
To say that he could fully protect them might be an overstatent, but surely, by stepping forward to help them, he could keep them under his care to so extent.
Upon hearing Ji Yang’s words, everyone quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
They used to look down on Ji Yang to so extent, but now they realized that Ji Yang’s influence was sowhat considerable.
Guo Song’s visit was even on the advice of the family’s old man, who had understood Ji Yang’s significant influence and saw his potential as limitless.
Thinking of this, Guo Song turned to Ji Yang and said, “Old Ji, whatever you need to do in the future, just say it.
Even if it’s integrating with the tourism industry or sothing else, I will support you with all my might.”
Ji Yang nodded slightly and said, “Our biggest problem here is recovery.
The conditions here are actually very good in all aspects.
As long as we work together, we can reheat this place.
Everyone needs to think of ways in this regard.”
Wei Min admitted, “Old Ji, I think the biggest highlight here is that kind of rice wine.
You don’t know, many people in the province like that stuff.
It’s a pity that it was monopolized by the Chu Family in the past.
If we can get that going, we can definitely attract lots of people.”
Guo Song also said, “Indeed, the Chu Family made a fortune on that.
However, I heard that several new families have taken over that pharmaceutical factory this ti.”
Ji Yang realized they didn’t know the inside story and had to explain the Chu Family’s maneuver.
“What?”
Everyone was shocked.
Sun Xiaozhen said, “Are you saying that thing the Chu Family couldn’t get is going to be smashed?”
Ji Yang shared, “What I’ve co to understand is that the Chu Family has disclosed the rice wine brewing technique.”
Everyone was left speechless.
Qian Yongping looked at Ji Yang and asked, “What would be the situation if everyone starts doing it?”
Ji Yang replied, “That rice wine has so ingredients that are only effective when grown in Wushu Village.
It’s ineffective when brewed with materials grown elsewhere, so having the technique is useless without the right resources.”
“So it’s all about the raw materials.
Whoever controls the raw materials there will beco wealthy.”
A thought flashed through Ji Yang’s mind: perhaps the next step would see everyone scrambling for land, and could this be an opportunity for the village?
