Chapter 2086 Is it really that urgent?

Guo Weiguo looked at Pi Yangyang with some confusion, and asked hesitantly, "What does Mr. Pi mean?"

Pi Yangyang smiled slightly, "Isn't the bidding meeting for Xingyi Industrial Park in a few days? If something goes wrong then, wouldn't that serve as a deterrent to those bigwigs?"

Guo Weiguo suddenly realized and said solemnly, "That makes sense! But wouldn't doing this have too much of an impact, on the image of some departments..."

At this moment, Old Xue suddenly said, "Soldiers shed blood and sacrifice themselves to protect the peace of the region! But these people in our families enjoy peace and tranquility, yet they always think about preying on the people! Such people are simply a tragedy for China!"

"Xiao Guo, when it comes to cracking down on these kinds of people, we can't be soft-hearted or worry about the consequences. We have to use swift and decisive measures to deter those who are tempted to make trouble."

Guo Weiguo's expression changed, and he immediately said, "I was overthinking it! They can disregard the interests of the people and public morality, so why should we care about their reputation and image!"

Pi Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly, "Then I'll leave this matter to Director Guo."

Guo Weiguo said solemnly, "Mr. Pi, rest assured, I can't stand these kinds of parasites more than anything else in my life. Just do as you said, and let's give those big rats a warning."

Originally, Pi Yangyang wanted to report the matter directly to the relevant authorities.

But he realized that he wasn't familiar with the people in those departments, and they certainly wouldn't follow his ideas.

That's why he thought of handling it through Guo Weiguo.

Given Guo Weiguo's status, position, and connections, handling this matter would certainly be very simple for him.

"Xiao Pi, you've done a great thing for the people, that's remarkable."

Old Xue said happily.

Pi Yangyang smiled slightly and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Old Xue, actually, I did this for my own selfish reasons, not for the noble reasons you make me out to be."

Old Xue asked curiously, "Personal motives? Tell me about them?"

Pi Yangyang said without hesitation, "To be honest, my Yan Group is also competing for the Xingyi Industrial Park project. My rival wants to get the project through Bai Xiaopeng, so I have to cut off his path."

Old Xue laughed heartily, "Is that all? As long as you sincerely want to do the project and don't take any crooked paths, what kind of selfish motives are you talking about? I've heard that this industrial park is personally supervised by a big shot, and it's designed to regulate industrial enterprises around Beijing, achieve unified management, and reduce pollution."

"Little Pi, if you really get this project, you can't cut corners."

"No way, I'm planning to move all the factories under my Yan Group there for centralized management. If we cut corners, we'll only hurt ourselves."

Pi Yangyang answered very decisively.

Old Xue nodded and said approvingly, "That's why young people are so capable; they think of everything more thoroughly than us old folks."

Then, he looked at Xue Ziming and said, "Alright, you young people rarely get to see each other, you must have something to talk about, so we won't disturb you any longer."

Immediately afterwards, he and Guo Weiguo went to the other side.

Xue Ziming walked over and sat down opposite Pi Yangyang.

"Brother Xue, there is indeed something I want to tell you this time."

Xue Ziming asked, "What is it? Is it about the mining area in Africa?"

Pi Yangyang shook his head. "No, it's about the bullet in your body."

A flicker appeared in the depths of Xue Ziming's eyes. He turned to look at Old Master Xue and Guo Weiguo, only to find them chatting idly and not paying attention to this side.

He stood up and said, "Let's go for a walk."

Pi Yangyang knew that Xue Ziming didn't want his family to know about the bullet.

After all, revenge is dangerous, and his family all want him to be safe and sound and not risk his life again.

Pi Yangyang got up, and the two of them said goodbye to Xue Lao and Guo Weiguo before leaving the small courtyard and entering the government compound, where they walked and talked.

"Brother Pi, have you discovered something?"

After coming out, Xue Ziming asked excitedly.

Pi Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's not really a discovery. I asked one of the programmers in my company to search for information about this bullet online. His efforts paid off, and he actually found some information..."

Xue Ziming's expression suddenly tightened, and he asked urgently, "What is it?"

“On the internet, someone is offering a reward of ten million dollars for the owner of this bullet,” Pi Yangyang said calmly. “However, this information is from three years ago. Under this reward post, someone replied that the owner of this bullet was a top sniper from the Middle East. That’s all…”

Xue Ziming's hands clenched into fists unconsciously, his eyes flashing with a cold light, and he said in a deep voice, "A top sniper from the Middle East..."

Pi Yangyang said with some guilt, "We've only found this much for now, so it might not be of much help to you. However, I've asked Mu Ye to continue the investigation. With his abilities, he'll definitely be able to find the owner of this bullet; it's just a matter of time."

"No, this message from you is already very important to me!" Xue Ziming said excitedly. "This way, at least the scope has been narrowed down a lot."

Pi Yangyang smiled and said, "It's good that it's helpful, but this matter can't be rushed. We can only take it slowly. I think no one can completely hide their traces unless they have never appeared before."

"Yes, every goose leaves a trace. Since he fired the gun, it's impossible for him to leave no trace at all."

Xue Ziming said with great certainty.

"Thank you, brother!" Xue Ziming suddenly patted Pi Yangyang's shoulder lightly and said gratefully.

Pi Yangyang said, "There's no need for such formalities between us. I will do my best to help if I can."

"I have a feeling that maybe it won't be long before I find this person and avenge my parents!"

A sharp glint flashed in Xue Ziming's eyes as he spoke with great confidence.

The two chatted for a few more minutes before Guo Yun came out and called them back to prepare for dinner.

Back inside, Guo Weiguo was already opening a bottle of wine.

…………

Meanwhile, at the Langfa Sect's Taoist temple, Bai Zheteng and Bai Yuanji looked at the dozen or so Japanese dishes and the pot of sake laid out in front of them, but had no appetite at all.

Hayato Tsunekawa and Sen Ryo sat opposite them. A woman in a kimono poured them drinks and then stepped aside to serve them.

"Mr. Bai, the bidding will be open in a few days. How are your preparations going?"

Hayato Tsunekawa raised his glass, gesturing for Bai Zheteng and Bai Yuanji to drink.

After taking a sip, he asked slowly.

"Chairman Xia, all the preparations have been carried out according to your arrangements." Bai Zheteng frowned slightly, forced down a glass of wine, and said, "The negotiations for Bai Village have been basically completed. Negotiations for Wu Village are still ongoing, but with Mr. Liao involved, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Yes, the bidding will open in just a few days. You must take over the back mountain of Wu Village before then," said Hengchuan Hayato. "Remember, people are greedy. If all else fails, throw in more money. I don't believe the people of Wu Village would hate money!"

Bai Yuanji frowned and said, "Chairman Xia, there shouldn't have been any problem. However, it seems that Wu Village has been bewitched by someone and is unwilling to talk to us at all. Even when we meet, it's all just empty talk, and they never give a clear answer."

Hayato Tsunekawa's eyes flickered, and he said in a cold tone, "The person you're talking about, is it Pi Yangyang, the chairman of the Yan Group?"

"Yes, it's him!" Bai Yuanji said indignantly. "This person used some method to make everyone in Wu Village trust him completely. Even when Wu Village moved graves, they invited him to preside over the sacrificial rites and the grave-moving ceremony. This is simply outrageous..."

Hayato Tsunekawa gave a cold laugh, "Didn't Bai Xiaopeng already accept the 80 million you gave away?"

“Yes, we accepted it,” Bai Zheteng said. “Moreover, Bai Xiaopeng made a promise through Liu Chang’e that there would be no problem with the second and third stages.”

Hayato Tsunekawa's expression darkened slightly. "This greedy deputy director, offering a full 80 million for just these two segments, is simply outrageous."

Liao Sen said coldly, "His two sons are abroad. Should I give him a warning?"

Hayato Tsunekawa waved his hand and said, "No need! Our goal now is to take the second and third dan. There's no need to cause trouble. We can give him a warning after we take those two dan."

Liao Sen respectfully replied, "Yes, Chairman."

“Since he has agreed to the second and third phases, you can start preparing.” Hengchuan Hayato’s hawk-like gaze fell on Bai Zheteng and his son again, and he said in a deep voice, “The machinery can be brought in to the back mountain of Bai Village now, under the pretext of helping them relocate graves, and the work can begin.”

Bai Zheteng was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Chairman Xia, is it necessary to be in such a hurry?"

Hayato Tsunekawa said firmly, "The sooner the better. If we delay, things might change. We must complete our goal as quickly as possible."

Bai Zheteng nodded, "Okay, we will carry out Chairman Xia's instructions."
