"Then what is going on with this land use approval?" Fang Shen asked as he pointed at the document.
Zhu Ming wiped the sweat away from his forehead and explained, "This was an abuse of power. Don't worry, Mr. Fang. The related personnel will be dealt with severely and bear relevant legal responsibilities."
Hearing that, Director Li of Bureau of Natural Resources of Jianghai County staggered and cried in his mind, "I'm screwed. My career will end this time. I hope I won't be accused of corruption."
Fang was satisfied with this result. He turned to Shen and stated, "Mr. Shen, I want to report that Xiao Dazhuang, head of Jianghai Village, is suspected of being involved in corruption, misuse of authority, forming a sinister gang, and…"
After a short pause, he continued, "intentional killing!"
Xiao Dazhuang kept rather calm at the beginning, but after hearing the letters of "intentional killing", his face turned pale.
He could be put to death because of the last accusation.
"Fang Shen, I know I have treated you badly since your parents went missing, but I've never tried to kill you. Why are you being so ruthless?"
"Well," Fang looked at him in the eye and stated calmly, "that's because I don't want to waste time on you."
Ignoring Shen and Zhu, Fang turned around and entered the house.
After shutting the door, he spoke to the dumbfounded Liu Huihe, "Huihe, I'm hungry. Let's have lunch."
Xiao asked the policemen to catch Fang at a heavy price, and he was arrested by them in the end.
People left the yard one after another, but Shen and Zhu stayed. They stared at each other and made a decision.
They knocked at the door and asked, "Mr. Fang, may we have lunch with you together?"
Liu looked to Fang in an attempt to ask for his opinion.
"It's up to you." Fang answered.
She dried her hands on her apron and murmured, "Fang Shen, they are high-raking officials from Jianghai City. We should not offend them."
"Alright. You don't need to fawn on them." Fang said indifferently.
After entering the house, Shen and Zhu treated Liu politely and flattered Fang.
Liu opened a bottle of wine for them and went back to the kitchen. Fang, Shen and Zhu chatted while eating.
"Mr. Zhu, I'd like to contract for the mountain behind our village. Is there any problem?" Fang asked curiously.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhu answered, "Mr. Fang, if you want to contract for such a large mountain, you have to have a project first. Otherwise, you will be able to get the land use approval."
"I want to plant Chinese herbs and breed animals on the mountain." Fang replied.
"Well, there'll be no problem. Self-employment of peasants is greatly supported by the country now." Zhu stated affirmatively.
Hardly had his words faded away, he regretted having said that. The Ye Clan thought highly of this young man, so he couldn't be a peasant.
Fang was not angered at all. He raised his glass and said, "Well, please help me get a land use approval. I want to contract for the whole mountain. You may rest assured; I will greatly enhance the villagers' incomes."
Zhu shook his head repeatedly. "No trouble at all. No trouble at all."
After lunch, Shen and Zhu said goodbye to Fang and went to Jianghai County to follow Xiao Dazhuang's case.
Fang planned to go to the mountain. He had been in the villager for several days, but he hadn't checked the situation in the mountain yet because of Xiao.
When he was about to get out, Liu Huihe insisted on going with him. He didn't oppose.
