"I'm not particularly resourceful; I just happen to know someone there." Ye Xingchen dialed Liu Zhenye's number and explained what had happened.
“Brother, I know about your situation. His name is Chen Peng, right? I’ll have the Economic Crime Investigation Division in charge contact him right away. I know those bastards too well; they just want some benefits.”
"The police force needs a clean-up; this kind of bad practice cannot be allowed to continue."
"Okay, thanks, Brother Liu. See you later." Ye Xingchen hung up the phone.
"How is it?" Chen Peng asked nervously.
"It's resolved. Someone will contact you soon." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
"Thank you so much!" Chen Peng was overjoyed.
"The police station's procedures take a long time. How could it be resolved so quickly? Is your friend reliable?" Liu Zhen asked with disbelief.
He didn't believe Ye Xingchen was really that powerful; he thought, "Don't brag."
"The procedures are just for ordinary people to see. If you have the right connections, the procedures don't matter." Ye Xingchen glanced at him.
Liu Zhen's face darkened, and just as he was about to retort, Chen Peng's phone rang. It was the criminal police officer in charge of his case.
"Hello, Officer Chen." Chen Peng was delighted and quickly answered the phone.
"Mr. Chen, your case has been closed. Come to the bureau tomorrow to complete the formalities, and the money you were scammed out of will be credited to your account within three working days," the other party said.
"Okay, thank you, Officer." Chen Peng was overjoyed; he really hadn't expected the matter to be resolved so quickly.
"No, don't be so polite. It's just my job. You and Director Liu have such a good relationship, why didn't you say so sooner? I'll have to ask you to put in a good word for me with Director Liu later."
The other person's constant use of polite formality left Chen Peng completely bewildered. When he visited the bureau before, this person hadn't been so courteous.
They often leave you hanging for an hour or two, and speak very formally, which makes you feel helpless. Now, the other party's attitude is actually so good?
"Is it resolved?" Ye Xingchen asked after he hung up the phone.
"Thank you so much for solving Xingchen's problem. Do you know Director Liu over there?" Chen Peng asked.
"Yes, I know him. It's good that it's been resolved. You'll have to treat me to a drink later," Ye Xingchen laughed.
"No problem." Chen Peng nodded.
Liu Zhen's face was bruised and pale; the scene was indeed very awkward.
"Teacher, I won't stay any longer. My friend invited me to dinner. We'll find another time," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"Alright, Xingchen, then I won't keep you any longer." Liu Chuanfu stood up and shook hands with Ye Xingchen.
Ye Xingchen arrived at Lü Peng's private room. Lü Peng and his wife were extremely grateful to him. He left the room drunk and was about to leave.
"Xingchen, are you done?" Just as I was about to call a designated driver, Wu Meiyue's voice came again.
Wu Meiyue had changed into a sexy lace dress at some point, revealing her smooth and slender legs without any reservations. The V-neck at her chest was low, and a glimpse of white skin made people dizzy.
After all, she was the class beauty, so she had good personal qualities. Moreover, judging from her appearance, she was deliberately waiting for Ye Xingchen here.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Ye Xingchen pressed the car key, and the headlights of a large G-Class not far ahead flashed.
"We've been drinking until now, and we just finished. Everyone else has gone home, and I'm about to leave." Wu Meiyue's eyes lit up: "Is this your car? It must be very expensive!"
"It's alright. It's getting late, you should go back too," Ye Xingchen said.
“My home is a bit far away, and it’s quite late now. I’ve also been drinking.” Wu Meiyue frowned slightly, looking troubled.
She was waiting for Ye Xingchen to offer to take her back, so that she would have a chance.
"Let's take a taxi back. It's not too late now, it's a little past eleven," Ye Xingchen said casually.
"Oh? But, but it's dangerous for a girl like me to drink. Who knows what the driver did before? What if..."
Wu Meiyue's voice trailed off as she tentatively asked, "How about... you take me home? Or can I go to your place?"
As she spoke, Wu Meiyue tossed her hair and thrust her chest forward, blatantly flirting with men.
"Don't worry, the area is very safe now. It's not convenient for a lone man and woman to go to anyone's house this late. Goodbye, designated driver."
Ye Xingchen saw through her intentions at a glance. Although she was beautiful and Ye Xingchen was skilled in bed, he was not a dog in heat.
This kind of woman is too goal-oriented; it goes without saying what she's after. Ye Xingchen has absolutely no interest in women like that.
After he finished speaking, he got into the car without looking back, and a designated driver quickly ran over to open the car door for him.
"Hey, Ye Xingchen, ugh, you bastard..." Wu Meiyue stomped her feet angrily, watching Ye Xingchen leave.
Ye Xingchen had a designated driver take him to a private club. Ning Xin had found this place; the land in Longhu Park that they had previously invested in had already doubled in value.
This club is privately owned and mainly caters to the children of wealthy and powerful families. It's a four-story villa that looks ordinary from the outside, but is extremely luxurious inside.
"Brother Lin, I just got the news that the new district near Longhu Park has been established, and the land we selected is going to be used to build a landmark, tentatively named Twin Towers."
Ning Xin's tone was excited in the private room: "It's like the very center of the new district. The municipal government will be moving to the vicinity of the Twin Towers in the future. Moreover, there are several prestigious schools and hospitals nearby, and the Longhu University Town is also planned next to it. We've made a fortune on that piece of land."
"The Twin Towers, I knew there was a master in the Celestial Mirror. If I'm not mistaken, the Twin Towers face east, with the left side higher than the right, which signifies the arrival of auspicious energy from the east. This is in harmony with the terrain of the heavens and the sea, and can connect the earth's veins from all directions," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"Brother Ye, you're amazing! I glanced at the plan, and it's definitely one high and one low." Ning Xin slapped his thigh: "Our plot of land is right in the center of the plan. The government requisitioned it, and our money tripled."
"And I listened to you and bought several plots of land nearby that very day. Now developers are flocking there like crazy, and land prices have skyrocketed."
"Government planning is too slow, and I urgently need the money. Do you think you can find a way to realize some of my investment?" Ye Xingchen smiled, knowing that starting a company also required funds.
“No problem, Brother Ye. Your investment has now increased to 1.5 billion. I’ll withdraw 1 billion from the company for you first, and the remaining 500 million will arrive in three months at most,” Ning Xin said without hesitation.
When the government requisitions land, the money is usually not paid so quickly, but Ning Xin is different. His uncle is the top official in the city, and he only needs to make a few trips to get the money for the requisitioned land.
"Haha, let's celebrate properly today! Manager Li, call a few girls over." Ning Xin was exceptionally excited, even though their project had caused a lot of trouble due to Wang Qiang cutting corners.
The repairs cost a lot of money, but Jianning Real Estate's reputation wasn't ruined. Moreover, he made a fortune by buying several plots of land on Ye Xingchen's advice. From now on, he will be Ye Xingchen's loyal follower.
A row of girls were called up; after all, this was a proper high-end venue, and the girls were all of extremely high quality.
However, on the far left of the row of people, Ye Xingchen discovered that Li Li was among them.
