"I don't know the specifics either. I only know that Jiangcheng Lushan Real Estate Company is responsible for these two projects," Li Hongling replied truthfully.
"Xiao Ling, don't worry. Lushan Real Estate Company is only in the planning stage for the landfill and public cemetery projects; construction hasn't started yet. I'll personally go talk to Jiangcheng Lushan Real Estate Company. Everything can be discussed," Chen Feng reassured Li Hongling.
"That's the only way, I suppose. I originally wanted to find the boss of Lushan Real Estate Company, but I went to the Lushan Real Estate Company building several times and never got to see the boss. I suspect Boss Li Shan is deliberately avoiding me. You're resourceful, you should be able to find the boss of Lushan Real Estate Company," Li Hongling replied truthfully.
"Don't worry, a mere boss of Lushan Real Estate Company, I still have ways to deal with him," Chen Feng reassured Li Hongling.
After speaking, Chen Feng didn't hesitate and went directly to the Lushan Real Estate Company building. He waited all morning, encountering the same situation as Li Hongling. He didn't see Li Shan at all. This meant that Li Shan was indeed deliberately opposing them. He had to admit that Li Shan was quite bold to openly oppose him in his company in Huaxia. If he didn't retaliate fiercely, Li Shan wouldn't know that some people were absolutely not to be provoked. Since Li Shan was deliberately hiding to avoid being found, then fine, he would make Li Shan come out to find him. With this thought, Chen Feng left the Lushan Real Estate Company without looking back.
"Boss, Chen Feng left dejectedly," as soon as Chen Feng left the Lushan Real Estate Company building, his subordinate immediately went to report to Li Shan.
"The head of the Five Continents District Development and Reform Bureau alone, such a minor official, I can handle him," Li Shan said with a smug, wretched smile.
"Boss, I still don't understand why you're opposing Chen Feng. To be honest, our landfill and public cemetery projects this time aren't very profitable," the subordinate asked, puzzled.
"I tell you, you're really a blockhead. Forgot? Earlier, because Chen Feng instigated the Jiangcheng high-level officials, Jiangcheng canceled all financial subsidies for headquarters buildings for projects in Mingshan City. They claimed it was to fully develop the financial industry in Five Continents District. Damn it, it was because of this move by Chen Feng that several financial projects I had fell through, and I lost a lot of money. Since Chen Feng made me lose a lot of money, I'll make Chen Feng lose a lot of money too," Li Shan explained angrily.
"I see. However, I heard from others that Chen Feng is no ordinary person. If we openly oppose Chen Feng like this, won't it backfire?" the subordinate asked cautiously.
"What are you afraid of? Chen Feng is just the head of the Five Continents District Development and Reform Bureau. My own brother is the head of the Jiangcheng Development and Reform Commission. Who are we afraid of?" Li Shan laughed triumphantly.
"Oh my, Boss, I forgot you have a very influential brother. With your brother around, we can indeed openly bully Chen Feng," the subordinate replied excitedly.
"Alright, no need to be so surprised. Hurry up and keep an eye on the two projects. Try to start construction as soon as possible. The sooner construction starts, the sooner Chen Feng will know how formidable I am. Damn it, Chen Feng acts like a clean official, wholeheartedly thinking of Five Continents District. I wouldn't be angry if he was just a clean official, but I'm angry because if he's a clean official, a minister who pleads for the people, he should at least not harm our interests. Since he's ignoring my interests and unscrupulously developing the so-called financial industry in Five Continents District, this time, I will definitely trap Chen Feng severely to let him know what he's capable of," Li Shan said coldly.
The subordinate didn't waste any more time and immediately left the office to work on the two projects. After three days of work, the subordinate realized something was seriously wrong. No matter how busy they were, there was no progress on the landfill and public cemetery projects. The subordinate quickly investigated carefully. The investigation revealed a shocking truth that almost scared the subordinate to death. It turned out that a piece of land near Jiangcheng University of Technology had been requisitioned by the Jiangcheng military to establish a weapons research institute. When the Jiangcheng Land Bureau saw that the military had requisitioned this area, how could they dare to let Li Shan's landfill and public cemetery projects proceed?
"Boss, this is bad, very bad," the subordinate immediately found Li Shan.
"What are you spooked about?" Li Shan replied dismissively.
"We've underestimated Chen Feng," the subordinate said fearfully.
"What are you talking about? Chen Feng's new campus project at Jiangcheng University of Technology this time is bound to lose money. How have we underestimated Chen Feng?" Li Shan asked impatiently.
"Boss, I thought the same thing. No matter how capable Chen Feng is, he's just the head of the Five Continents District Development and Reform Bureau. Your elder brother is the head of the Jiangcheng City Development and Reform Commission. In terms of official positions, we have the advantage over Chen Feng. However, Chen Feng has connections with the Jiangcheng military and has generously donated a large piece of land to the Jiangcheng military for weapon research. The Jiangcheng Land Resources Administration, seeing the Jiangcheng military involved, immediately changed its stance and halted our two projects. Not only did they halt them, but they are also preparing to impose fines," the subordinate explained anxiously.
"What? Chen Feng has connections with the Jiangcheng military? How is that possible? The military and local government are entirely different systems. How does Chen Feng know the Jiangcheng military?" Li Shan asked, bewildered.
"Boss, I investigated Chen Feng. I discovered that Chen Feng is truly extraordinary. Setting aside other things, just his relationship with the Jiangcheng military is not something an ordinary person can compare to. Jiangcheng previously spent a long time in Mingshan City, vigorously developing the chip industry, new energy industry, and cold fusion boundary industry... These industries have greatly promoted the upgrade of Huaxia military weapons, so the Huaxia military has a very high opinion of Chen Feng and has even specially approved Chen Feng to carry a handgun. This treatment has never happened in decades. Chen Feng is definitely the first," the subordinate explained earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Li Shan's first reaction was to collapse onto the ground. It was over. This time, it was truly over. He had kicked a steel plate.
"Quickly prepare the car, I need to go see Chen Feng in person," Li Shan shouted in fear.
"Boss, will Chen Feng see us if we go at this time?" the subordinate asked tentatively.
"He definitely won't see us, but we must go. Even if we have to kneel outside Chen Feng's office, we must see him. It's not just in Huaxia, but in other countries as well, you shouldn't provoke the military. The military can say one word, and even the largest company has to obediently vanish into thin air," Li Shan said fearfully.
"What? With one word, a large company vanishes into thin air? Boss, isn't that too exaggerated?" the subordinate was stunned for a moment.
"Not exaggerated at all. The military only needs to say, 'The military needs to requisition the company,' and what can the company say? Resist the powerful iron tide? Therefore, we must find Chen Feng and apologize to him sincerely, seeking his forgiveness. Only then will the Jiangcheng military not take action against us," Li Shan explained.
The subordinate understood immediately upon hearing this. The poor fear the rich, the rich fear the powerful, and the powerful fear those with guns. Everything is subdued by something else. Thus, the two of them immediately drove to Li Hongling's office. Li Hongling managed Chen Feng's business, so Chen Feng must be in Li Hongling's office at this moment.
"Xiao Ling, let's hide for a bit," Chen Feng said to Li Hongling with a smile.
"What are we hiding for?" Li Hongling asked, confused.
"Later, Li Shan will come to beg us for mercy. We need to make him wait and ignore him a little..." Chen Feng said confidently.
"What? Li Shan will come to beg us for mercy? How is that possible? Right now, aren't we in the advantageous position? Why would he admit defeat and beg for mercy?" Li Hongling continued to ask, confused.
