"But the biggest problem now is that the project has run into problems."

"The inability to start is due to unforeseen circumstances, though internal strife also plays a part..."

Chen Yifei's half-spoken words led everyone to guess that it involved Deng Yitong and Jiang Laoliu.

"The project can't start, and it's government-supported. Do you really think they'll take away your funds? Who will take them away? I won't. I'm right here, waiting for you to come and settle accounts with me."

"Right now, the money is all managed by our Market Supervision Administration and deposited in the bank. All loan transactions are processed through proper procedures. What are you afraid of?"

When Chen Yifei said that, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

"You mean, we can get the money?"

“Yes,” Chen Yifei said. “Go to the Administration for Industry and Commerce. They will definitely give everyone an explanation. This is not difficult. You can get your money back without any problem. I told you, trust the Shanghai Administration for Industry and Commerce and cooperate with them.”

"Is it meaningful for you to mess around here? If you really hurt me, won't you end up in jail?"

Chen Yifei said these words casually. Mainly because these people were all too stupid.

They insist on doing all this messy stuff.

After Chen Yifei spoke, they had a group of people guard him, fearing that Chen Yifei might run away.

Another group of people, led by Deng Yitong, went to the Administration for Industry and Commerce one by one.

Chen Yifei went inside.

He took a drag on his cigarette and said, "Tsk. Zhao Lei and the Administration for Industry and Commerce should thank me for guiding this matter so quickly."

"Consider it a big gift I'm giving them."

Originally, many people were dissatisfied with the market supervision and management in this area, but now they all need their help, making future management work much easier.

This time, Jiang Laoliu's plot failed.

A flourishing of diverse industries is just around the corner, which is exactly the kind of market regulation that the Administration for Industry and Commerce aims to achieve.

A large group of people from the Administration for Industry and Commerce arrived here, but it was as if they had been prepared for this long time.

The public reception center is very attentive; they listen to everyone's requests.

While everyone was waiting to speak, Zhao Lei stepped forward and said, "We understand everyone's feelings. Since this is a project we are leading, there is no problem with the money."

"It's just that the payments will be made in batches, and the banks aren't transferring the funds as quickly as we can. It's all a matter of time. Apart from uncontrollable factors like time, you can contact us for everything else."

Hearing Zhao Lei's promise, everyone was incredulous. Could he really just hand over the money like that?

I'm still completely confused, so it seems that Chen Yifei really wasn't a fraud.

They don't ask for much now; they'd be lucky to get their money back, and they don't think much about anything else.

You only realize how valuable money is when you lose it.

...

Almost all of Chen Yifei's men have also left.

After everyone had left, Tiger said incredulously, "Wait, Fei-ge, wasn't this all just a pointless fuss?"

"You know, all that effort put into this project, what did the Industry and Commerce Bureau get in return? Jiang Laoliu did get into trouble, but the project still yields nothing!"

"I always felt that it was really a waste of effort for the project to fall through like this."

Chen Yifei looked at Hu Zi: "Look, this is what youth is like."

"What about the money borrowed from banks? Aren't those high-interest loans money too? And what about the money that the Administration for Industry and Commerce distributes in batches and holds in deposits?"

"These are no small sums. To be honest, it's fine to keep the accounts transparent, but the people we contacted, like Zhao Lei and his team, who did the work, shouldn't they get some kind of reward?"

"It may seem like a small amount, but the profits involved are terrifying. Nobody does a free lunch; it's just that people who can't think straight don't realize the benefits."

"..." Tiger felt that Fei was cursing him, but he had no proof.

But Fei-ge is right, these people are really good at making money...

Chen Yifei couldn't care less about the others. He said to Hu Zi, "Quickly call Sheng Zi and Shuan Zi. Tell them to bring over all the money they have."

"Let's take advantage of this chaos and buy up a medicinal herb supplier in the southwest. Then the winery will have raw materials. We can also supply other parts of the southwest."

"...Holy crap!" So that's what Fei-ge was planning.

Tiger thought Fei was just busy doing nothing.

You should do it right away.

Because the market was sluggish at the moment, Chen Yifei took a liking to Deng Yitong's supply point, for example. It must be said that he handled things very well.

It takes time for the funds from the Administration for Industry and Commerce to come through, but there's nothing we can do. As businessmen, and not state-owned enterprises, small businesses like ours aren't prohibited in Shanghai right now.

So it's already quite good that we got all the money back.

Chen Yifei's price war was all about exploiting the time difference.

I have about 100,000 yuan in savings. If I can acquire Deng Yitong's factory for less than 150,000 yuan, it would be a very good deal.

Yes, Chen Yifei was planning to take advantage of the chaos to pick up bargains.

Otherwise, it would take them a long time and effort to find the medicinal herbs needed to make wine.

Although Shanghai is far away, it's still manageable to transport it there by large truck.

Incidentally, he can also transport his greenhouses over to Shanghai by truck for sale.

Fill in the gaps.

Chen Yifei had always made plans.

The mushrooms have become a demonstration site in the southwest, and many people have started growing them. Their agricultural technicians still need to provide technical guidance.

Chen Yifei's products are currently selling well with a monopoly in the market, but that may not be the case in the future. Distributing them nationwide will be the inevitable trend going forward.

He was reborn; how could he lack foresight?

Once this wave is almost over, it's just a matter of waiting for Deng Yitong's factory to run out of funds before we can use the money to buy it back.

Chen Yifei, on the other hand, planned to go home and have a nice meal.

This time, they really helped the Administration for Industry and Commerce a lot, so Zhao Lei insisted that Chen Yifei make time to go over for a meal.

Chen Yifei said with a smile, "I'm going to see my wife. I'll see if she's been threatened at home."

"I'll come see you again when I have time, Comrade Zhao Lei. It's been a long time since I've worked with someone so smoothly."

Zhao Lei also greatly admired Chen Yifei: "This time, Comrade Chen planned everything himself; we were just cooperating. It's a waste of your talent to go to the Southwest."

"Staying in Shanghai will offer better career prospects."

Chen Yifei waved his hand: "You'll see when Comrade Zhao Lei goes there. There are plenty of money-making opportunities over there."

Zhao Lei laughed. That's true. A shrewd person like Chen Yifei would never stay in a place where he can't make money.

He's worrying about nothing.

"In the future, Comrade Chen Yifei, if you need any help, you can come to me."

"It would be my great honor."
