Chapter 342 Progress Regarding the University Town



Everyone burst into laughter when they saw it.

Of course, Lin Yifeng didn't explain to the group that he was the author of "The Immortal of Immortality".

The reason why novelists like to use pen names is simply to ensure their safety.

What if one day I kill off the characters in the novel, or update too late, and who knows what kind of person on the leader's end might do a solo kill?

Moreover, Lin Yifeng was extremely familiar with Ye Wuzheng and the others.

If they knew it was Lin Yifeng who wrote the novel, they'd probably chase him for days for the original manuscript. Pressuring him to update in person is no laughing matter.

After a few rounds of drinks, Lin Yifeng and his group prepared to disperse and go home.

However, before Lin Yifeng left, Ma Ning deliberately called out to him.

"Young Master Lin, I reckon you'd better be careful in a couple of days."

"The higher-ups have started reviewing it now."

Lin Yifeng raised an eyebrow and handed Ma Ning a cigarette.

"There's a chance?"

Ma Ning nodded with a serious expression.

"The province has already made a move, and the plan should be finalized in the next few days."

"Just be careful then."

"Don't wander off yet. You need to go to the Makino City government if something comes up."

"besides……"

Ma Ning paused for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes.

He then shook his head at Lin Yifeng and explained with a smile.

"I won't go into the rest, it's nothing serious."

"You're probably thinking you'll be very busy these next couple of days."

Lin Yifeng nodded. Ma Ning didn't explain further, perhaps because the rest wasn't important.

With Ma Ning's reminder, Lin Yifeng also planned to stay in Muye City for a few more days to see how things went. If necessary, he would have to make a trip to the government to help out.

Two days later, Lin Yifeng finally understood why Ma Ning hadn't finished speaking.

For Lin Yifeng, the next few days were pure torture.

He originally thought this matter was something that could be discussed internally within the government. However, perhaps because of someone on the inside, the news that Lin Yifeng was the main person in charge of the university town immediately spread throughout the university circle of Muye City.

Originally, the provincial authorities wanted to try this out in the Pingyuan New Area, relocating a total of three schools to the University Town. If the results were good, other schools would be moved there.

Logically speaking, the three undergraduate institutions in Makino City each have one place, and they can also receive government subsidies for university construction.

This was originally a good thing.

However, since Pingyuan University, a junior college, is located in Pingyuan New Area, you can't just move the junior college that was already there just to relocate three undergraduate institutions.

The fact that Pingyuan University is not located in Pingyuan New District has become a laughing stock.

This meant that the four remaining universities had to compete for the remaining two spots, while Pingyuan University watched from the sidelines, laughing as they fought tooth and nail for the school's spots.

It was because of the leak of inside information that people from all four universities came to Lin Yifeng.

For four or five consecutive days, leaders from the four universities invited Lin Yifeng to dinner one after another, each trying to get him drunk at noon so he wouldn't meet with people from other universities that evening.

The people at night wanted nothing more than to get Lin Yifeng completely drunk, so that he wouldn't be able to negotiate with people from other universities the next day.

In general, whenever Lin Yifeng attended a dinner party, the university leaders would drink like crazy.

They adopted a stance that suggested, "If you don't drink me to death today, I'll drink you to death too."

After four consecutive days of intense drinking sessions, Lin Yifeng finally couldn't take it anymore on the fifth day and turned down all the remaining drinking sessions.

He sat in his office eating fruit, but his stomach still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Fuck it."

"Where did this bad habit of drinking culture come from!"

"Even though they're a bunch of university leaders, they're more likely to drink than people on a construction site."

Xu Qingyi, who accompanied Lin Yifeng to the drinking party, was also at a loss for words.

He also witnessed what true absurdity was. This group of people from the school had practically brought in all the drinkers on campus, just to take down Lin Yifeng.

Xu Qingyi even felt that these leaders weren't studying academic matters all day, but were instead figuring out the best ways to drink.

Now, when Lin Yifeng recalls Ma Ning's words, he understands why he hesitated so much.

To get things sorted out in the university town, besides government backing, the support of university leaders is also indispensable.

Early the next morning.

Lin Yifeng was also invited to visit the teachers' college they had visited before.

Teachers' College is one of the most active members of this group. As the most famous university in Makino City, it is also the poorest university in Makino.

Even students at the school joke that studying at school is the beginning of torture, but once they graduate, they will be able to reach the pinnacle of life.

Most of the students graduating from this school are assigned to high school positions, and some with connections are even able to get direct entry into the education bureau.

Students here can even pursue further studies and eventually become teachers at universities.

Lin Yifeng and Xu Qingyi had visited the Teachers' College a long time ago and were shocked by its dilapidated state.

With the old buildings, dilapidated community, and corridors, Lin Yifeng suspected that the school leaders might have embezzled funds.

It wasn't until later that I learned that the teachers' college facilities were so dilapidated that they could only repair a portion of them each year, with most of the funds going towards the renovation of the school buildings.
