Gu Yuanming has been having a good time these past few days.
The county government verified the funds in Wu Changfeng's account.
Ten million, a full ten million, lay in the account, radiating dazzling light.
Moreover, Wu Changfeng was very generous.
The land transfer fee plus the factory construction fee, totaling 2 million yuan, has been transferred to the county's special account.
County Chief Guo planned to allocate a sum of money, reported it to the city government, and begin repairing roads and rebuilding schools that were on the verge of collapse.
The city provided strong support and allocated 30,000 yuan as a special fund.
In short, for any project that benefits the people, as long as Chishui County submits a report and contributes the majority of the funds, the city will definitely give a token amount.
County Chief Guo also enjoyed some glory in Jiangcheng City.
Jiangcheng City was the first to complete the investment attraction process, and the third in the province.
But it ranked first in terms of investment attraction funds!
In other counties, the investment attraction budget was only around 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.
County Head Guo and Gu Yuanming were commended by the city government, which called on other counties and districts to follow suit and learn from their advanced work experience.
But today, County Chief Guo is a little panicked.
He hurriedly called Gu Yuanming over, and the two closed the door.
Gu Yuanming sensed something was off and asked, "County Chief, what happened?"
County Chief Guo lit a cigarette and paced back and forth in his office: "That Wu Changfeng you were in charge of attracting investment to has gotten into trouble!"
"What!" Gu Yuanming jumped to his feet. "What happened? He's been out of town contacting suppliers these past few days, how could something have happened?"
"Shangshui Village is Wu Changfeng's village. The village chief called his superiors to inquire whether Wu Changfeng had been arrested on suspicion of fleeing."
"Run away? Don't be ridiculous!" Gu Yuanming pointed out the problem directly: "Run away and don't even want the money? Millions are still in the bank account."
County Chief Guo asked, "Does he have a history of owing money?"
"Yes, there is." Gu Yuanming said bluntly: "When the China Merchants Group was still the Economic Reform Commission, I investigated Wu Changfeng, and he did indeed owe money."
"It's true! We're doomed, this guy ran away and has become a black mark on our county!"
Gu Yuanming smiled and said, "That's impossible. I only owed 30,000 yuan, and I've already paid it off."
"Huh?" County Magistrate Guo was taken aback. "Is that really true?"
"With millions in the account, who would run away for 30,000 yuan? That's absurd."
"Damn it!" County Chief Guo blurted out, "So it was all a misunderstanding!"
"Something must have been embellished and spread as a rumor. Wu Changfeng's arrest must be a misunderstanding."
County Chief Guo nodded: "I'll call and inquire personally, and have the county issue a certificate and fax it to the municipal office."
...
Window City.
Wu Changfeng squatted in the corner of the detention cell, feeling extremely depressed.
The call was made back; surely the village chief wouldn't refuse to provide any proof?
How long has it been!
It's both funny and sad to think about how I got arrested.
During this period, the window city was very prosperous and its economy was thriving.
Although farmers were liberated from the land, agricultural technology still lagged behind that of other countries.
Selling grain doesn't earn you much money.
Therefore, farmers from all over the country with ideas packed their bags and flocked to the window city.
He tried to get a job in a factory, earn some money, build a house back home, get married, buy household goods, and improve his life.
These people are no small number; the number of people getting off the train at the station every day can reach as high as 300,000!
This has had a huge impact on the window market.
Countless farmers squatted by the roadside, looking bewildered.
They came, but they didn't consider how to find a job or whether there would be any jobs available when they arrived.
I just heard from others that money is everywhere in the window market.
The reality was far less rosy than they imagined.
On one hand, there is a continuous influx of migrant workers, and on the other hand, the city's capacity to accommodate them is limited.
This has caused considerable public security problems.
The city even appealed to neighboring cities for help, requesting law enforcement officers to maintain order.
But there are too many people, and it's impossible to manage them all.
The authorities were caught off guard and repeatedly appealed to the people of the whole country to be rational and not rush to the window cities.
The media also spoke out one after another, trying to slow down the pace of people entering the window city.
Wu Changfeng arrived at the window city at this critical juncture.
He happened to be passing by when two groups of migrant workers got into a fight, which led to Yangchi's arrest.
Next to Wu Changfeng squatted a man from Northeast China named Zhong Yutong, who was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, tall and broad-shouldered.
As classmates and friends, the two started chatting when they had nothing to do:
"Hey bro, what brings you in here?"
Wu Changfeng recounted his experience in a depressed mood.
Zhong Yutong almost burst out laughing: "You're being too aggrieved. There are so many fake IDs these days, it's normal that people don't trust them. But it's okay, as long as your family faxes over the proof that you're not part of the same group, it'll be fine."
"Why were you brought in?" Wu Changfeng asked.
"Don't even mention it." Zhong Yutong pinched his nose. "I'm an employee of the submersible motor factory. There's a company here that owes us money. The factory manager gave me a death order: don't pay back the money, don't go back to the Northeast, or you'll die in the South."
"When it comes to getting money in Northeast China, you have to resort to unorthodox methods. First, have a barbecue; if one meal isn't enough, have two, and that usually solves the problem."
"Damn it, I'm not used to the climate in the south. I've had almost 10 barbecue meals with this dog, and it's so stubborn about money. It's like Nezha's mother is pregnant but can't give birth!"
"Tell me, how can I tolerate this?"
Wu Changfeng nodded: "Absolutely unacceptable."
During this period, there was a very serious problem among companies.
Triangular debt!
You owe me, I owe him, and he owes you.
