It cannot be said that it was all because of Li Lin that they settled down in Pingyang, but Li Lin's influence was definitely indispensable.

In Ren Li's heart, she may really regard Li Lin as a relative and the first person she thinks of when something happens is Li Lin.

Whenever Li Lin thought of the living conditions of the three members of the Ren family, he couldn't help sighing.

About an hour later, Ren Li arrived at the county government.

Zhang Yupei took her into Li Lin's office.

"Brother Lin, I have wanted to visit you for a long time, but I never found the time... No, I heard that you have been busy recently, so I didn't disturb you rashly..." Ren Li stood in front of Li Lin and said a little nervously.

Li Lin smiled gently, asked her to sit on the sofa, poured her a cup of tea, sat down opposite her, looked at her and said, "I have been traveling frequently between provinces, cities and counties for projects recently, and I don't have much time at home. I also want to visit the cotton mill when I have time, but I'm too busy... In fact, your father, you and I are all family. If you have time, send a text message or call us to say hello. That will show your appreciation."

Ren Li held the teacup in her hand, pursed her lips, and felt that it was difficult to speak... until Li Lin said these heartwarming words, she spoke with difficulty, "Brother Lin, you don't blame my dad anymore, right?"

Li Lin said, "I blame him! I blame him for not being a competent father!"

Ren Li quickly explained, "Actually... don't blame my dad. He asked for my opinion beforehand, and I agreed! I am willing! He didn't go against my wishes... Brother Lin, do you understand my feelings?"

Looking at Ren Li's tearful eyes, Li Lin sighed helplessly.

Although the truth is cruel, it is the truth and we have to face it sooner or later.

Li Lin didn't care what Ren Li was thinking, and said, "Lili, you are so outstanding, you will be dazzling wherever you go... The municipal government and the provincial government have recruited many civil servants in the past two years, all of whom are excellent young men. I will help you find someone... I am getting married soon, and your sister-in-law is a teacher at Handan University. We are in love and have been dating for a long time..."

The words were spoken very implicitly, without a single word of "rejection", but they were all heart-wrenching "rejections".

Ren Li lowered her head and said nothing, accepting her fate.

She sighed, forced a smile, pretended to be relieved, and said with a smile, "Brother Lin, then you have to introduce a few more to me so that I can choose carefully... I want someone who is 1.8 meters tall and has six-pack abs... and... someone who is as manly as you..."

Li Lin smiled and said, "Don't worry, I may not be able to help you with other things, but your brother Lin can help you with this matter! I will call the provincial government later and find someone to help you!"

Ren Li smiled and said, "As long as you like someone, I can like him too... Brother Lin, we should still be like before, right? Can you still come to my house to eat hotpot when you are free? You also know that my dad is unfamiliar with Pingyang, and you are his only true friend... If you get angry with him and ignore him, he will be very sad..."

Li Lin said, "Don't worry, Lili, it's still the same as before. I'll call your dad and arrange a drink when I'm free! But your dad needs to go out more often. How can he be in good spirits if he stays at home all day?"

Ren Li smiled and said, "It's settled then. If my dad knew you invited him out for a drink, he would be so happy..."

The two were talking.

Ren Li's phone rang.

She didn't want to answer it.

But Li Lin made an excuse to pour tea and stood up and went to the tea cabinet.

Ren Li hesitated for a moment before pulling out her cell phone. It was a call from her subordinates at the cotton mill. She answered and said, "If you have anything important to say, talk to me when you get home. I'm busy..."

The subordinate hurriedly said, "Mr. Ren, the tax bureau suddenly came to check our accounts, saying that they suspected that we had falsified accounts and evaded taxes..."

"What? How can they slander me?" Ren Li said with a gloomy face, "Tell them to wait. I'll be back soon!"

Hang up the phone.

Ren Li stood up and said to Li Lin who was boiling water, "Brother Lin, something urgent happened at the factory. I'll go back and talk to you another day."

Li Lin put down the kettle in his hand and said, "Well, you are always welcome here. Also, don't force yourself to do anything when you encounter it. Just call me when you need to..."

Ren Li nodded, "Okay, Brother Lin, if I encounter something I can't solve, I will ask you for help as soon as possible."

Li Lin didn't say anything else, just nodded and watched her leave.

Ren Li had just left half an hour ago.

Yang Tong, the person in charge of Longjian in Shannan, called.

"Chief Li, I have an emergency to report to you. The Municipal Taxation Bureau conducted a surprise inspection and brought a large group of people to the factory to check our accounts..."

Li Lin asked back, "Manager Yang, can't Long Jian's accounts withstand scrutiny?"

Yang Tong said, "It can withstand investigation! The preferential conditions promised to us by the municipal government were three years of tax exemption. Since it is tax-free, of course we report it truthfully. We did not even do any reasonable tax avoidance. It is all real accounts! But County Magistrate Li and the tax bureau also know this situation. Why do they still come to investigate us? I am worried that they will find an excuse to cancel our tax-free qualification, which will cause great losses to our factory!"

Li Lin knew that Longjian used all its profits for factory expansion, and with a loss-making mentality, it increased the salaries of its employees and paid social security in full and on time, which meant that they had prepaid the tax refund in advance. If the tax refund could not be transferred to Longjian's account on time, it might face operational difficulties in the short term...

Then, Yang Tong asked cautiously, "County Magistrate Li, did you know in advance about the surprise inspection by the Taxation Bureau?"
