The arrival of Old Zhang made it difficult for Cai Zhaohui to implement the method he wanted to use to forcibly take Zhao Hanyun back. After waiting for two days and seeing that Old Zhang had no intention of leaving, Cai Zhaohui said goodbye to everyone with a dark face. Zhang Jiayao also left with him. He was kicked back by Old Zhang, who said that he had no ability and was just pretending to be dead all day long. He should go back and study hard with General Cai.
So Zhang Jiayao took the gift from Zhao Hanyun back home. He decided to ask his boss to give him a few days of sick leave. Staying away from the old man and Zhao Hanyun was Zhang Jiayao's current motto.
"Grandpa Zhang, are you just going to let your major go back like this?" Zhao Hanyun handed Old Zhang a cup of tea. The tea leaves were from an unknown small tea tree that she had thrown into the space when she was free. Now it has grown very well. Zhao Hanyun used her spiritual energy to dry it directly. After trying it, she found that the taste was not bad. This is how he developed a habit of drinking tea. Then one time, Yuan Zhicheng found out and robbed a large bag of it. After that, Zhao Hanyun's tea had a market. Then Zhao Hanyun directly bribed those old stubborn people in Kyoto. Although they had hardly seen Zhao Hanyun, they liked this girl just for the fragrant tea.
"Look, this Cai kid is dishonest, and I can't be as dishonest as him. Letting Jiayao go back with him is to give him face. Even if I want to keep my grandson, it's not impossible. But I, your Grandpa Zhang, am a good man who abides by the rules. Let them solve the army's affairs themselves. As an old man, I'd better drink tea."
Zhao Hanyun smiled without saying anything, and silently poured another cup of tea for Mr. Zhang. He looked at Zou Li and gave him a look, saying, "It's up to you now."
"You two little rascals, stop flirting with me." Before Zhao Hanyun could turn around, Old Zhang's words came from beside them: "What are you thinking? Do you really think I, an old man, can't guess?"
Zhao Hanyun was somewhat helpless. As expected, old people are more clever. Luckily, Mr. Zhang was on Zhao Hanyun's side, otherwise it would probably not be his turn to drink the tea here.
"Grandpa Zhang, what does that mean?" Zhao Hanyun asked with a smile. Since the conversation has come to this point, he should at least come up with a sequel.
"Come, fill this cup of tea for grandpa first." Old Zhang pointed at the teacup in front of him and smiled with his eyes narrowed into slits. Zhao Hanyun looked like a fox that had stolen some meat, and no one knew what bad ideas he was planning.
"Uncle Zhang!" Seeing Zhao Hanyun pouring tea obediently in front of Old Zhang, Zou Li shouted from the side, causing Old Zhang to roll his eyes. After all, Old Zou was not that good-looking, but he gave birth to such a beautiful and delicate child, who was also a little romantic. They all heard that this guy had confessed his love to this little girl since they were young, and he still cherished her so much after so many years. It really made people jealous.
"Okay, okay, that's what I said." After letting Zhao Hanyun sit down, Old Zhang cleared his throat and said, "The meaning of the above is actually similar to Cai Zhaohui's. But after all, old man Yuan has made contributions to the country, and it's not easy for the country to directly offend him. So, I'm here as a representative to convey the meaning." As for why he asked Old Zhang to come, it was because after Old Zhang was critically ill last time, his son and grandson went to the Yuan family for help, but were severely scolded and driven out by Yuan Zhicheng. The news had spread widely. Then, after Old Zhang miraculously woke up and got better, every time he met Yuan Zhicheng, they would quarrel with each other, making them like two fighting cocks.
So, those who knew about the relationship between the two were happy to watch the fun, while those who didn’t think that the two families were mortal enemies!
"If you ask me, why should Old Yuan give those people face? Even if they contribute a lot, those unworthy ones will still take it away. I think we should just keep them hanging and let them see that we have good stuff here. If they want to take a bite, they will be beaten. Whether they can eat it or not depends on their ability!"
Mr. Zhang's words gave Zhao Hanyun a new understanding of politics. It seemed that this was how the old man viewed those greedy people. But why did he sound like an old rogue?
"What does that mean?"
"What else could it be? This farm can be given to you, but the base inside must be used to train talents for the country." Even though people didn't want the farm built by Zhao Hanyun, they had to give some compensation since they didn't make things difficult for her, that is, it would be used to train talents for free. The Yuan family's strength was still there, and they were embarrassed to send people there before, but now that they have a new target, they will certainly not let it go.
"People can come, but there's only one batch per year. They're assessed monthly. If you don't pass, you're not allowed to come again. Even if you pass, you'll need to take another assessment before you can stay. The annual assessment is your own responsibility. Those who are incompetent and timid don't need to come. My people have the final say here. If you dare to place someone here, you won't be allowed to come here in the future. That's all I have to say for now. I'll add more later if I think of anything."
After hearing the conditions proposed by Zhao Hanyun, Mr. Zhang couldn't help but want to praise him. Even the country's selection of special forces is not so strict. They have to be assessed every month and abide by the rules here. Even Old Yuan didn't have such courage to say this back then. It seems that they are getting old!
"I will tell all these to the higher-ups and give you the answer tomorrow." Old Zhang wrote down everything, set a date for Zhao Hanyun, and then left with the tea and other goodies he had robbed from Zhao Hanyun.
"What is Cai Zhaohui going to do?" Zou Li asked Zhao Hanyun who was writing something there. The coldness in his tone made Zhao Hanyun feel a chill on his back.
"Haha, isn't he known for having the best Qinglong team under his command? Let's go check it out!" Zhao Hanyun thought of the list of people listed in the information Zou Li gave her, and matched them with the people Cai Zhaohui brought with him. "I heard they're already in the car."
"Even if it's at the edge of the sky, I'll find it for you." Zou Li said, and put his arm around Zhao Hanyun: "Come on, I'll take you to join in the fun."
Cai Zhaohui was currently in the car, talking on the phone with a gloomy face. The people following him were beside him, and they didn't dare to utter a word. After Cai Zhaohui finished his call, they spoke cautiously, "General? About this?"
"We don't need to worry about it. The higher-ups have compromised." As he said this, Cai Zhaohui slammed his hand down on the table in front of him. "What a bunch of cowards! It's just the Yuan family, what's there to be afraid of? One day..."
This was not said out loud, but the few of them looked at each other tacitly, seeing the ambition in their eyes: "We will rely on the general from now on."
"Wow, you are so arrogant, aren't you afraid that the wind will bite your tongue?" A voice came from the door, which made the people inside stiffen. They had just heard this voice two days ago.
"Zhao Hanyun, why are you here?" There was still someone brave enough to open the door. Seeing the two young men at the door, Cai Zhaohui's eyes twitched suddenly. What did it mean that Zhao Hanyun appeared here?
