After dealing with Zhang Hong and Zhu Datou, Lin Yu returned to the Wang family courtyard.
The elderly couple had already returned from grocery shopping.
Zhao Lihua quickly came over and looked Lin Yu up and down with concern, "Xiao Lin, are you alright?"
"Lihua, what are you yelling about? Do you think you can call me 'Little Lin'?" Wang Daosheng glared at him. "Didn't I tell you to call me Teacher Lin?"
Lin Yu smiled and waved his hand, "Dean Wang, judging by her age, Aunt Zhao could be my grandmother, so it's only right that she calls me Xiao Lin!"
"Exactly! Let's each keep our own names. My grandson is almost in middle school, what else should I call him but Xiao Lin!" Zhao Lihua couldn't help but mutter, then said to Lin Yu with a grin, "Xiao Lin, wait here, I'll wash some fruit for you!"
"Thank you, Aunt Zhao!" Lin Yu said with a smile.
As soon as Zhao Lihua left, Wang Daosheng hurriedly invited Lin Yu to sit down on a small stool in the courtyard and asked anxiously, "Teacher Lin, did you go to see that Zhang Wuwan?"
Lin Yu nodded. "I've already spoken to him. Don't worry, he and Zhu Datou will never dare to cause you any more trouble! As for the relocation..."
Lin Yu shook his head and continued, "In reality, Zhu Datou has no ability to develop it. Originally, they designed this project to siphon money from the banks and squeeze your compensation money. Even if the buildings are built, it will most likely end up being an unfinished project, adding to the burden on the government!"
After hearing this, Wang Daosheng was furious. "These people are simply outrageous! They're deceiving their superiors and deceiving their subordinates! They're absolutely wicked!"
Lin Yu nodded and said, "Dean Wang, don't worry. This project has been cancelled now, so you can continue to live your lives in peace. If you and Aunt Zhao have any difficulties, just tell me!"
"Oh, right!"
Lin Yu suddenly remembered something and quickly added, "Zhang Yonghui from the Health Department has been dismissed and is under investigation. Your license will be reinstated soon, and you can go back to work anytime! After working for another two years, you'll be retiring soon. You've spent your life treating patients and saving lives; you should at least get a pension, right?"
Wang Daosheng's old eyes reddened as he nodded. "Thank you, Teacher Lin. To be honest, my wife and I are really reluctant to leave here. After all, I'm not old enough to retire so early, and my wife has long been used to life here. When people have a headache or fever, they're used to coming to our little clinic. If we leave, I'm afraid they won't be able to adapt!"
Zhao Lihua was carrying fruit over when she heard this, and her eyes turned red.
She was a well-known village doctor in the area, and many neighbors from surrounding villages and towns came to her for treatment.
Although she doesn't earn much money, this job allows her to realize her life's value and gives her an irreplaceable sense of mission.
"Xiaolin, come and have some fruit!"
Zhao Lihua brought over the fruit platter, then went to the yard and picked some of the fruits and vegetables she had grown, put them in a large bag, and asked Lin Yu to take them back.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Teacher Zhao, you don't need to bother! I have all these things at home!"
"Hey, how can that be the same? We grew these ourselves, without pesticides or fertilizers. Just take them home and eat them!"
Zhao Lihua insisted that he take it back.
Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Lin Yu shook his head and smiled wryly, finally agreeing to accept it.
The elderly couple then insisted that he stay for dinner.
At the dinner table, Zhao Lihua kept chatting with Lin Yu, even trying to introduce him to potential partners. Lin Yu was left both amused and exasperated.
After finishing his meal, it was getting late, so Lin Yu got up to say goodbye to the elderly couple.
Back at the hotel, Lu Xueqing hadn't finished get off work yet. She had called when she got back. It turned out she had to work overtime today, so Lin Yu didn't have to cook, which was a relief.
A short while later, Feng Jiu hurriedly came over to report to Lin Yu.
"Young Marshal, I finally know what I'm supposed to do every day!"
Lin Yu raised an eyebrow. "Hmm? You found out?"
Feng Jiu nodded and said, "This afternoon, they headed to Turtle Mountain again, and I've had people following them the whole time. To be honest, that Japanese feng shui master is quite something; he actually used a feng shui formation to get our brothers lost! Luckily, our brothers caught a lone Japanese man and brought him back. I interrogated him personally and finally found out what they were up to!"
Lin Yu was speechless: "You're so slow, just say it already!"
Feng Jiu pursed her lips and continued, "As you predicted, they are indeed looking for a large tomb! This Japanese master is named Sato Saki. His great-grandfather, Sato Shigeo, came to Guanzhong with the Japanese army eighty years ago and found a large tomb in Guishan! It was the tomb of a Han king, and it is said that they found a treasure inside, the Nine Dragon Jade!"
"The Nine Dragon Jade?" Lin Yu frowned, puzzled. "Since they found the treasure back then, what are they doing here again?"
Feng Jiu shook her head and said, "They didn't take the Nine Dragon Jade back then! They couldn't have taken it! Because the Han King's Tomb was full of traps, and the Nine Dragon Jade was right at the eye of the trap. Sato Hideyuki calculated that if they took the Nine Dragon Jade, they would all be buried inside and wiped out!"
"So he came up with a plan! He went out and made a replica of the Nine Dragon Jade, then placed the replica in place of the original at the core of the formation! However, just as he returned and was about to make the replica, our Red Army returned and liberated Guanzhong, and their conspiracy failed!"
After listening for a while, Lin Yu suddenly realized and said, "So, this idiot Sato came here this time to carry on the legacy of his great-grandfather, that bastard, and to steal the Nine Dragon Jade, right?"
Feng Jiu nodded repeatedly, "That's right, Young Marshal! That's roughly the information we received. Their first trip into the mountains was to find the notebook that Biaozi left behind. The notebook contained the exact location of the tomb, as well as photos and information about the Nine Dragon Jade. And it's quite obvious that they've already found it!"
"Yesterday, Koizumi Mami took Kameda Shinichi to the jade factory, actually to make a replica of the Nine Dragon Jade Disc. This time, they went into the mountains again to raid a tomb! They'll exchange the replica for the real Nine Dragon Jade Disc!"
Lin Yu smirked coldly, "Trying to steal our Great Xia's treasures? Dream on! Besides, they underestimated our ancestors' mechanical skills. Since the Nine Dragon Jade is the core of the array, it must contain mysterious power. It can't be easily replicated. Even if they create a replica that looks exactly the same, it can't replace the function of the core. These guys are simply courting death!"
Feng Jiu said worriedly, "Young Marshal, what if they just happen to stumble upon the Nine Dragon Jade by sheer luck? Shouldn't we send someone to follow them?"
Lin Yu shook his head. "The Han King's Tomb is a large tomb, and it must be fraught with danger. Don't let the brothers take any risks!"
"Young Marshal, what do you mean...?" Feng Jiu asked, puzzled.
Lin Yu's lips curled slightly, and he said with a playful look in his eyes, "Why don't we two go and have some fun with this little life!"
