After listening to Qiao Zhixia's request, Mayor Hao did not express his opinion in person at the dinner table. Instead, he tactfully asked her to go to the town government another day to discuss the matter with him in detail.

Qiao Zhixia knew what he meant when she saw his old-fashioned look.

He had no reason to refuse such a mutually beneficial opportunity, and his attitude was simply to gain some benefits.

Two months later, she went to Mayor Hao's office with a gift box of fine tea and two thousand yuan in new cash.

She knew that Mayor Hao was greedy, but she didn't expect him to be so greedy that he would look down on her little money and ask for 5% of her annual income.

This is not a lion's wide mouth, it's simply a black hole. Isn't he afraid of choking to death if he bites off too much?

Looking at the old man's greedy and shameless face, she turned and left without staying for long.

"Village head, this Jingyang Group may be able to lead our entire village out of poverty. We should support it with all our strength, right?"

The deputy head of the township is a young man in his teens. He is still quite passionate about this job, but unfortunately he is suppressed by Head of the Township Hao everywhere.

"Xiao Li! You are still too young. It's really too much for a short-sighted country woman like her to want to make a name for herself! This is teaching her how to do things and behave. Don't worry, she will come back to beg you. If the Jingyang Group really becomes successful, it will be a big cake. If we don't take a bite, others will take it. If you don't work for yourself, you will be ruined!"

Qiao Zhixia became a little absent-minded after she returned. Everything had been going smoothly since she started her business, which made her very angry when she faced these bad things.

If she missed last year's Canton Fair, there would still be next year's. She no longer believed in evil.

But the difficulty lies in land contracting. How can she get the land without the approval of the township government?

Seeing that she looked worried, Qiao Chudong went up to her and asked her if she had encountered any difficulties.

The two sisters sat on the stone bench in the yard and chatted. After hearing about Mayor Hao's ambition, Qiao Chudong clenched her fists in anger.

"He really dares to think that since their status does not allow them to engage in business, he might as well just take kickbacks. 50% of the time, how dare he do that?"

Qiao Zhixia looked terrified, "Isn't it because he saw that there was no one behind us? With such a big piece of cake in front of him, he will definitely take a big bite."

The gentle Qiao Chudong could only pull Qiao Zhixia aside and comfort her: "Don't worry too much, we can always find a way. You haven't had a good rest recently, and you are still feeling tense."

Qiao Zhixia was busy with company affairs during this period. At night, she secretly used undiluted spiritual spring water to grow some vegetables and stored them in the space for emergency use. She also found time to read books and do homework. She was really exhausted.

When she was lying on the stone table and about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard Yaya running towards the door happily.

"Uncle Yang..."

Yang Shuo's tall figure appeared outside the courtyard gate, carrying two boxes of cakes in his hands. "Yaya, where's mom? Can you let uncle in?"

"Okay~" Yaya was completely defenseless against Yang Shuo.

Qiao Zhixia raised her head and said, "Sister, go quickly, Brother Yang Shuo is here to see you..."

Qiao Chudong gave her a loving look but walked away.

Ever since Qiao Chudong divorced He Xuyang, Yang Shuo has been visiting her more and more frequently.

After all, Yang Shuo was Yaya's savior, so it was difficult for her to refuse.

Besides, Yang Shuo was a man of measure and discretion, so he would not embarrass her.

"Why are you here?"

"It's your birthday, did you forget?" Yang Shuo shook the egg cake in his mouth. He remembered that Qiao Chudong loved to eat this the most.

On the other side, Qiao Zhixia was sleeping soundly on the stone table when she heard someone knocking on the table next to her head.

She looked up and sat down on the table, and saw that the person who came was Yang Shuo, "I heard your sister talk about the matter of Mayor Hao."

"ha?"

"I'll go and help you guys solve this matter. I know a few people in the city who can help you smooth out the relationship."

"Uh." She was still dizzy.

"Tomorrow is Monday. Prepare the materials and give them to me. I will go and help you..."

Yang Shuo did not show up for the next week, but he asked her to go to the township government again.

Mayor Hao didn't waste any more time talking and went straight to the point: "It's 50% that makes things difficult for you, Boss Qiao, but it's still not enough to reduce it to 40%. Then I can only take back the fields and forests that I contracted to you as an exception."

Qiao Zhixia was amused by his shameless laughter. She was not someone who would swallow her anger in silence, so she immediately shouted back:

"Contracting out as an exception? Which piece of land was not contracted through legal means? Mayor Hao, you are too greedy. Can you take it back just like that? Is the contract just a decoration? Or do you think you can cover it up, Mayor Hao?"

Mayor Hao had never expected her to be so arrogant. He was secretly angry and mocked her for being young and ignorant, and not knowing her own limitations.

"Xiao Qiao! You are so young and reckless. Without your support, you still dream of becoming big and strong? It's just a dream! If I want to deal with you, there are naturally many ways. I have seen your fruit farm, and it is well managed and planned. You said that you want to take it back now and arrange for someone else to take over. Wouldn't that save a lot of costs?"

Mayor Hao laughed shamelessly, but he did not anger Qiao Zhixia.

Qiao Zhixia stood up, crossed her arms, and looked at him with cold eyes.

"Xiao Hao! You really don't want to think about it! You admit that you do have a certain amount of power in this town, but have you forgotten that you have money? But outside this place, you are nothing! No, you are not even a fart! But where can you spend your money?"

She has a system and space, so she can be successful wherever she goes. Why would she put up with his bullying?

You want to pick her up? You're dreaming!

Mayor Hao narrowed his eyes, trying to see a trace of fear in Qiao Zhixia's eyes, but unfortunately, there was not a trace.

"Are you really right?"

"You are against me! You are against the national poverty alleviation policy! If you say it is clear, I will spend money to help you "promote" it in the newspaper. Will all the things you have done and the little tricks you have done behind the scenes to make money be discovered? Will your second wife who lives in the county cry?"

After Qiao Zhixia finished speaking, Mayor Hao's expression suddenly changed.

"You actually checked?"

Qiao Zhixia smiled wickedly, "There's no way. When this person encounters difficulties, he will find ways to solve them. And the biggest difficulty right now is you, so... I will solve you."

"You...you just wait."

Qiao Zhixia sighed twice. Useless people like to say this.

"Let's just wait and see which of you finishes first!" Qiao Zhixia went to the county seat and directly sent a letter of accusation to the county government.

He became arrogant when I invited a small village chief to dinner. Does he really think he is such an important person?

Although she entrusted the import and export business rights to Yang Shuo, she was not idle!

They investigated the entire family of Mayor Hao. It is worth mentioning that he got the position of Mayor by substitution, and after taking the position, he began to collect money from all sources.

Although the position was not high-ranking, he made a lot of money.

After 꿷꽭 confronted him head-on, he must have felt guilty and would have been moved.

Sure enough, two months later, one night, Mayor Hao and his wife were caught by investigators while they were moving the gold bars hidden in their home.

Obviously, Qiao Zhixia won this head-on battle.

And the better news was that Yang Shuo finally came back and brought her the news that the import and export license had been approved.
