Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Why do 1 feel that there’s something fishy going on?” Li Qingkai said.
“Lin Yi has been in the county for so long. Not only did he not embezzle a single cent, he even spent a lot of money. Yet, these people actually came to report him. What are they thinking?”
“Let’s go down and take a look first.” Lin Yi smiled.
“I’d like to know what’s going on.”
The three of them walked down together. At the same time, the people from the other departments in the office building also followed them out, wanting to know what was going on.
They knew Lin Yi’s character very well, and they didn’t think that he could do such a thing.
At the entrance of the office building, countless people who passed by also surrounded the area. Other than eating, drinking, and pooping, these commoners’ greatest hobby was to watch drama.
“What are you doing?!” Wang Yunjiang pointed at the people holding the banners.
“We want to report the director of the Office of Poverty Alleviation, Lin Yi. He took benefits from others and promised to bring citizens to the northeast to study. On the other hand, those of us who really need the opportunity don’t have the chance to go. We want an explanation.”
Wang Yunjiang’s face was cold as he looked at the people holding the banners below. His expression was very ugly.
He knew Lin Yi’s character too well. Why would he care about these tiny bits of money?
Someone must be up to something!
Yu Chaoxi, who was standing at the side, stood with his hands behind his back and nodded in satisfaction. This was the effect he wanted.
“Stop, stop, stop. Everyone, stop arguing.” Zhou Feng stood up and said.
“We are also heartbroken to have such a person among our officials. 1 promise everyone here that we will handle this matter seriously and give you an explanation!”
At this moment, Yu Zhaoxi turned around and looked at Lin Yi.
“Secretary Wang has placed a lot of trust in you, giving you full responsibility for this matter. I didn’t expect you to be playing this kind of game behind the scenes. Can you justify Secretary Wang’s trust in you?”
Yu Zhaoxi and Zhou Feng echoed each other and pointed the spearhead at Lin Yi.
Coupled with the other people’s accusations, he looked like he was being condemned by everyone.
“I’m quite curious. What right do you have to criticize me?” Lin Yi said to the cursing people.
“You still have the cheek to ask this?!” The leader of the group accused.
“We’re all farmers in the county. We’re the ones who are most qualified to learn, but you used your power to give the spot to someone else. Do you want me to expose this scandal to everyone?”
“Alright, alright, stop arguing.”
Yu Zhaoxi stood up and shouted at those who were raising their banners in protest. Then, he said to Wang Yunjiang,
“Secretary Wang, our county is at a critical moment of poverty eradication. Now that such a thing has happened, we have to deal with it seriously.”
Wang Yunjiang’s eyes darted around. With Lin Yi’s contribution to Dongsan County, he would not do such a thing.
However, the matter in front of him was not minor. He had to think of a way to calm this everyone down.
“Yu Zhaoxi, you don’t have to add insult to injury. It’s pointless.”
At this point, Lin Yi could not be bothered to be polite.
“Since I’m in charge of this matter, it’s up to me to decide who to choose. I don’t think you people have the right to say anything about my decisions.”
“Why should you decide? You’re not doing good for the commoners, and you’re even using your position for personal gain. How can you have the cheek to say this?”
“But I’m the one who is leading the study in the northeast. i pay for the entire process myself, so who I’m willing to bring is my own business. What does it have to do with you?” Lin Yi said.
“If you want to go, you can pay for it yourself. i really don’t understand. What’s the point of sending such a huge force to suppress me?”
“What did you say? You’re paying yourself?!”
Yu Zhaoxi and Zhou Feng were stunned. They never thought that Lin Yi would do such a thing.
This was not a small sum. Was he a fool?
As for those clamoring below, their expressions were also extremely awkward.
If the county paid for it, there would be a reason to report him.
However, if he paid out of his own pocket, they could not control him at all!
“What do you think? You can go to the county and check if Secretary Wang has approved my expenditure.”
Yu Zhaoxi looked at Wang Yunjiang, but the latter was expressionless and answered his question with silence.
“That’s impossible. Stop fooling us. Who would be stupid enough to use their money to do official business!” The person holding the banner said.
“If you’re really that rich, why are you still working here?”
“Couldn’t I have come over to kill time since i had nothing to do?”
Lin Yi searched his pockets and took out his car keys, waving them in front of everyone.
“This car isn’t expensive. It’s only about a million yuan. I still have this bit of money, so swallow your ignorance to avoid making a fool of yourself.”
A car worth more than a million yuan!
This time, not only were the onlookers stunned, but even Wang Yunjiang and the others were stunned. They did not expect Lin Yi to drive such a good car.
Lin Yi smiled and shook his head, putting away the car keys.
“I’m really impressed that you can think of such a clumsy trick.”
“What are you talking about? 1 don’t understand.” Yu Zhaoxi pretended to be calm.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t get it now. You’ll understand in no time.”
Lin Yi looked at Wang Yunjiang. “Secretary Wang, get someone to arrest these troublemakers. I want to sue them for assaulting me and harming my reputation. I’m prepared to pursue this matter to the end.”
“I’ll take care of this.”
Wang Yunjiang picked up his phone and said a few seconds later,
“Old Ma, bring some people over. Someone is causing trouble here. Come and take them away.”
“Well…”
Seeing that Wang Yunjiang had called someone to arrest them, the people who reported Lin Yi panicked.
“We didn’t do it on purpose. Why are you arresting us?!”
“You guys are brainless. You don’t even know that you’ve been used.” Lin Yi said.
“But if you tell me the truth and tell me who the mastermind is, we’ll call it even. Otherwise, even I don’t know when you’ll be released,” Lin Yi said.
The people in the county had never experienced this kind of intimidation before. They immediately cowered and pointed at Yu Zhaoxi and Zhou Feng.
“They asked us to come and gave us 200 yuan each. We really don’t know anything else.”
“You, what nonsense are you talking about? What has this got to do with me?!”
“It’s you. You asked your brother-in-law, Zhang Bangyong, to come and find us. Don’t think that we don’t know!”
Yu Zhaoxi’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was flustered.
“Don’t be ridiculous. i didn’t do this!”
“Yu Zhaoxi, look at what you’ve done!” Wang Yunjiang snorted.
“Secretary Wang, you have to believe me. I’ve really never done such a thing!”
“I don’t want to hear any explanations. I’ll report this matter to the higher-ups.. As for the outcome, you can leave it to fate!”
