No named entities.

Chapter 27, The Plum in the Golden Vase. Characters: Li Ping'er, Pan Jinlian, Ximen Daguoren

Eastern short film

No.

No.

But this didn't stop Lin Dongfan from sticking a knife into Han Zhang's heart: "I heard you lost ten million in three days—true or false?"

"Don't mention it; last time my luck was bad."

Back when Han Zhang divorced his wife, he wasn't as depressed as he is now; he put a cigarette to his lips, reached into his pocket, and depressingly discovered he'd forgotten his lighter.

So he timidly asked Lin Dongfan, "General Manager Fan, could you lend me a fire?"

No.

Lin Dongfan turned to the next page of the book and continued reading word by word.

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan, whole village, ban on fishing

No.

No.

Han Zhang glumly explained to Lin Dongfan, "I took your money, so I have no reason to stab you in the back. Actually, I oppose this matter. But I'm low-ranking and powerless; my opinion doesn't count."

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan, Hai Long Hui, Guo Lichun, Cai Yang

Guo Lichun, Yugang Xincheng

Secretary Yu

No.

Speaking of this, Han Zhang hesitated a bit, feeling Lin Dongfan had gone too far—a businessman actually treating me, the bureau chief, as cannon fodder? He even went so far as to ask me about Secretary Yu's position.

Yu Huacheng, Haishan City

Yu Huacheng, Haishan City, Provincial Anti-Corruption Bureau Chief Liang Wei

outsider, local

Now he is nominally the top leader, but in reality he's being suppressed by Guo Lichun. Guo Lichun, who climbed up step by step from the locality, is the true boss of Haishan Shi, with deep roots.

the person with surname Guo

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan, Haishan, Mayor Guo

"So you mean if the Guo surname doesn't loosen up, no one can lift the fishing ban?" Lin Dongfan closed the book, his eyes fixed on Han Zhang.

Han Zhang gave an embarrassed laugh: "You see, I'm useless anyway; I have no choice, but……"

"But what?" Lin Dongfan pressed.

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan, Civil Affairs Bureau

"Is this idea terrible?" Lin Dongfan frowned slightly.

Han Zhang laughed: "Whether it's terrible or not depends on your perspective."

No.

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan, Han Pangzi

Han Zhang

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan, Zhang Yinlan

No.

Your idea isn't terrible at all; it's actually quite clever—this is borrowing strength to strike strength.

No.

This is undoubtedly a terrible idea, because it can't solve the actual problem.

Although Zhang Yinlan is a fiery woman who won't tolerate even a speck of sand in her eye, no matter how fiery she is, she doesn't dare to confront Mayor Guo head-on.

In the end, it's just pointless tinkering—no problem gets solved."

Hearing this, Lin Dongfan couldn't help but look at Han Zhang with new respect—he didn't expect this dead fathead to still have some useful ideas; no wonder he could be a bureau chief.

But Lin Dongfan didn't think that in the end it was just pointless tinkering.

Zhang Yinlan

No.

Therefore, Zhang Yinlan must prevent the situation from worsening to avoid negative publicity; given this premise, she will inevitably employ every means to solve the problem.

If Guo Lichun doesn't give her face, she will go find Yu Huacheng to mediate.

Provincial Committee, No. 1 Wang Daochen, Yu Huacheng

In that case, this war will ultimately evolve into a showdown between Yu Huacheng and Guo Lichun!

Lin Dongfan looked at Han Zhang with a smile: "Since you think my idea is a terrible idea that can't solve any problem, dare you make a bet with me?"

Han Zhang, Lin Dongfan

As soon as the word "bet" was mentioned, Han Zhang felt an irresistible itch.

He rubbed his palms together, grinning: "General Manager Fan, if you're willing to put up ten million, no matter what you want to bet on, I dare to take it."

"Within 24 hours, Zhang Yinlan will bombard Guo Lichun—that's the bet." Lin Dongfan said confidently.

Han Zhang frowned dubiously: "General Manager Fan, didn't I hear wrong? I feel this isn't a bet—you're just giving me money. If I refuse it, I'd seem rude."

"What if you lose?" Lin Dongfan asked with a smile.

Han Zhang scoffed at the idea of a single beating, full of confidence, replied: "I cannot possibly lose."

"What if you lose?" Lin Dongfan pressed.

Han Zhang declared without hesitation: "If I lose, I have no money, but I have one life. By then, as long as you don't make me practice the Sunflower Treasure Canon, you can have me do anything."

What I want you to do is very simple.

Please go ahead.

If you lose, you help me get close to Zheng Canghai and gather dirt on the Sea Dragon Society and the Sea God Foundation.

Fan Zong, I didn't hear wrong, did I? You're a big wealthy businessman who drives a Rolls-Royce around town, yet you actually work for the Economic Investigation Team and the Anti-Corruption Bureau—are you sure you haven't lost your direction in life?

You just don't understand this.

Even with his true identity almost exposed, Lin Dongfan still maintained a calm and composed smile.

Lin Dongfan explained calmly: "I'm a mighty dragon that has crossed the river, he's a local snake born and bred here. It's a situation where we cannot both coexist; sooner or later one of us will have to go. But I don't want to die—there are still many girls in this world who need me to pamper them. So I can only strike first to gain the upper hand; have I made myself clear enough this time?"

Then why don't you just find someone to take him out? No need to make it so complicated. Han Pangzi really dares to say anything, not at all seeing himself as a boss, acting like a thug.

Lin Dongfan smiled faintly: "Just said I don't want to die—how could I get involved in hiring assassins? Sending him to prison to treadle a sewing machine—that's the perfect finishing move."
