Protagonist:

Chen Yi

Sun Sheng really wanted to keep cursing people, but he couldn't.

Chen Yi's laughter woke him up. If Sun Maoxin were a city high official with absolute power, he might be able to save both the gold mine and his son. In other words, he could suppress this whole matter. But reality was cruel. Sun Maoxin was nothing but a fence-sitter; without the support of the He Family and the Chen Family, he couldn't even control the Standing Committee. He could only pretend to be fair, supporting the He Family when they were in the right and the Chen Clan when they were in the right. As for fighting Chen Yi, the Chen Family's direct grandson, when he himself was in the wrong, that was certain defeat with no chance of victory.

Sun Sheng stuck out his tongue, licking his lips like a snake, and said: "Mr. Chen, you don't know, the gold mine issue is very complicated."

"Call him Mr. Chen." Fang Yu was smug; he had long disliked Sun Sheng's various methods of running from Xijing to Jiangning to make money, and with his identity as a Jiangning official's son, he had reason to hate Sun Sheng.

"Yes, Mr. Chen." Sun Sheng said with his head bowed: "Mr. Chen, the gold mine output in Wuxin County is very small. When I first arrived five years ago, in such a small county town, there were actually hundreds of small gold mines—some were just three brothers teaming up. As long as they earned several times more than farming, who cared about environmental pollution or world responsibility? It's just that my gold mine, although the mining permit hasn't been approved, really does have all sorts of environmental protection equipment if they inspect it. Moreover, the largest Panshan Gold Mine is still under the name of Fengfan Group, so it's not illegal, right. If we're talking about..."

He paused, looked at Chen Yi's expression, and said: "If my gold mines are all shut down, do you know what will happen? Today you leave with your front foot, and they enter the mountains to snatch the mines with their back foot, and they definitely have to fight. The workers at the mines are all fierce. After that, those small gold mines will open again, won't they?"

Chen Yi blinked for a long time and said honestly: "What does that have to do with me?"

"What?"

"What does that have to do with me?"

Sun Sheng's face turned green with shame.

Fang Yu laughed smugly and said cheerfully: "Sun brat, got slapped in the face, huh? Pretending to be an environmentalist, we young masters are just here to mess with you."

Kong Qian scratched his head and cheeks, unable to speak. The Political and Legal High Official was one of the Sun family's men; he was working right under their noses.

The conversation couldn't go on. Sun Sheng flicked his sleeve and left, while Chen Yi continued his breakfast.

As he was about to finish eating, he summoned Nude Bear and ordered: "From today on, the Wuguan Inspection Team will take over the gold mines. The old gold mines in Wuxin County are not allowed to operate, and neither are new ones."

"What if the locals insist on opening them?"

"No killing, no serious injuries. It's best to arrest them, detain them for two days, then release them. If ore is found, confiscate it. In short, don't let anyone start work smoothly or operate long-term." Chen Yi said with a smile: "Consider it pre-training before heading to the Continent."

Nude Bear immediately understood and nodded fiercely, saying: "I will definitely train the students well."

"You must have the spirit that Jiangning is our master." Chen Yi taught him: "Treat this as a rare opportunity and turn Wuxin County into our territory."

"Yes." Nude Bear was extremely excited. When he was in the West Continent, war had no place for him to participate, but now that he heard about snatching territory, he was naturally stirred up.

Kong Qian opened his mouth, then decided to pretend he hadn't heard and shut up. Young masters of great families, let them play their territory-snatching games; as long as this is the Party's world, that's fine.

Sun Dasheng's Land Cruiser had never driven this fast before.

In the past, when he came to Wuxin County he looked at money, and when he went to Jiangning he spent money—a carefree and happy life. Except when cutting in line and bullying people, he never needed to drive fast.

But this time, Sun Dasheng was truly furious.

Why did he come from Xijing to Jiangning? Wasn't it "better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox"? Although he wasn't a real chicken comb, at least he was a chicken head.

Chen Yi's appearance completely shattered his fantasies and dreams. Jiangning's clans were not as deeply rooted as those in developed countries in Europe and America, but they were closer to the center of power. One thing Sun Sheng clearly understood was that whether his father supported him or not, they had no way to deal with Chen Yi, unless Chen Zhongguo made an honorary mistake or died.

The Land Cruiser drove straight to the Standing Committee Compound. Among the 25 small buildings inside, not only current Standing Committee Members lived there, but also Standing Committee Members who had been promoted to Southeast Province and Beijing. Generally speaking, retired Standing Committee Members and those transferred to other places would voluntarily vacate their homes, otherwise they wouldn't live comfortably. So until today, the 25 buildings were still not full, with half empty like a chicken coop waiting for hens.

Sun Dasheng stumbled into the door, as if he had been beaten as a child. But he was also strategic; he didn't go to his father to cry, but first found his mother, and then had her persuade his father. Most of the money earned from the gold mine had been squandered by him, but quite a bit had also subsidized the household—this was the source of his letting his father step forward.

After finishing his crying, Sun Sheng felt he had completed his mission and decisively stayed home to sleep in.

But just as he slept until dinner time, he was woken up by the furious Sun Maoxin: "What did Chen Yi say? Tell me everything word for word."

"He just wants to take my mine, very domineering. What's the use of saying it?" Sun Dasheng resisted with his mouth, but still repeated the situation at that time.

The nonsense spoken earlier was all idle chatter. When he got to the sentence "You can go ask Deng Ge, Secretary Deng," Sun Maoxin suddenly understood.

"Old man, what are you thinking?" His wife was anxious.

Sun Maoxin was stunned, and after a long moment said: "This is a warning to me."

The old woman was anxious and hurriedly asked: "Who?"

"I also want to know. Is it Chen Yi... or Old Master Chen?" Sun Maoxin sighed, with a desolate autumn air.

"What can Chen Yi do to you?" Sun Sheng said with a hearty laugh, flattering him.

"If he wants to, he really can bring me down." Sun Maoxin picked up his teacup, inhaling the steam, and said: "I estimate it's him. Old Master Chen probably can't be bothered to manage me."

Seeing Sun Maoxin speak as if it were true, Sun Sheng couldn't help but ask worriedly: "How would he do it?"

"How did you bring down the County Magistrate of Wuxin County?" Sun Maoxin glared at him hard.

Sun Sheng's face turned green again, and after a long time he timidly said: "You know about that?"

"You went to the Director of the Organization Department and sent word to Southeast Province—how could I not know?" Sun Maoxin said helplessly: "Everyone keeps silent, and this matter is past. It's not just you who is clever. What you do in Jiangning, he can do in Southeast and Xijing just the same."

"He dares."

"Old Master Chen is very healthy; what does he not dare?" Sun Maoxin lowered his voice, nearly roaring: "When you flew my flag, what did you use? Wasn't it because I still have one term? Old Master Chen of the Chen Family can live at least two terms."

Sun Sheng retreated a few steps, somewhat afraid. He rarely saw his father angry, and even less after becoming a Jiangning City High Official.

Sun's wife no longer protected her son and asked softly: "Then, then what should we do?"

"Forget about the gold mine, wipe your butt clean quickly..." Sun Maoxin vented his anger, his tone softening a bit. He sat on the sofa and began explaining the key points to his son: "First, get the account books in order. That's the most direct evidence. If you can leave no traces, don't leave any. Also, don't mess up with money. If you owe people, don't default. Don't be greedy for small gains. Also, how many people who know you are in those companies?"

"Not a few."

"Give them all severance pay. Give more to those willing to go to other places. Tell them to start work again after the wind dies down. Keep them under control, don't let them talk nonsense everywhere..."

Sun Sheng suddenly remembered the news sent back by several factory directors at noon, and his heart tightened involuntarily. He said: "That... Chen Yi seems to have arrested the middle management personnel and forced them to write self-criticisms."

"What?"

"He calls it service evaluation. I'm afraid... I'm afraid... there's everything written."

Sun Maoxin was so anxious his eyes turned red, but instead he calmed down. He sat back in his seat solemnly, and after a long moment said: "Let them write if they wrote. This kind of thing loses its force over time. But... Wuxin County, you don't go there anymore."

Sun Sheng dazedly said "yes," then went back and lay on the bed to sulk.

He had originally hoped that after waking up tomorrow, he'd be in a better mood and then think of a way to end all business in Wuxin County.

Unfortunately, this was destined to be another unpleasant morning.

"Chen Yi smashed our hotels and the shopping mall." This was the informant's first sentence.

If Sun Sheng were a woman, he should have comfortably fainted, as if ravaged by countless men.

But he is a man; whether this feeling of being ravaged by countless men would be even worse or even more pleasurable, he didn't know.

"Go back. Where is Chen Yi?" Comrade Sun Sheng, who had just decided not to be Sun Dasheng, swung his arms and rushed to the garage.

"Seems to be at Jiangning University."

Sun Sheng didn't say a word, his mind full of thoughts of stabbing someone to death.

There really was a sharpened Tibetan knife in his car.

Another high-speed drive; the Land Cruiser's tires were about to catch fire, relying entirely on the Municipal Party Committee pass to rush straight into Jiangning University's gymnasium.

Wu Jingjing was drawing her bow and shooting arrows; besides a group of Southeast Asian students as her audience, there were also Chen Yi and Yin Senyong. The latter had played basketball in the backyard of the martial arts hall for half a month and finally liked it, clamoring to find a place to "practice with experts"; within a radius of several tens of kilometers of Binjiang Road, Jiangning University was the most suitable.

Sun Sheng held the Tibetan knife high, forced a "Take that!" from his chest, imagining his running movements like a Japanese samurai preparing to slash... needless to say, he would not put anime movements into practice.

Thinking of the Chen Family, thinking of the Chen Clan, thinking of his old man's words, Sun Sheng silently withdrew, ruthless in his heart: I will report your behavior to everyone, everyone!

Inside the gymnasium, Chen Yi wore the Level 7 Listening Scroll and finally nodded in satisfaction: Not easy; if you didn't go around publicizing my arrogant and domineering name, I wouldn't have to keep messing with you, what a hassle!

No matter the time, tacit understanding is always the most important.
