Power and Wealth

Inside the Camry.

Although Dong Xuebing could guess the answer, he still asked Hu Silian.

"… did Da Feng County apologize?"

Hu Silian clenched her teeth. "After Pang Zhou is suspended from his duties… we did not hear anything from them."

"That's all?" Dong Xuebing's face changed. "They gave us so many troubles, and don't even want to apologize?!"

"Da Feng County felt it was a misunderstanding, and punishing Pang Zhou is enough. They didn't feel the need to apologize."

Li Feng had interfered with the City Commission for Discipline Inspection to remove Dong Xuebing from his position forcibly and even got the City Government leader to scold Yan Tai County's leaders. After the truth is found out, he left with Peng Kenong as if nothing had happened and let Pang Zhou shoulder everything. Damn! He doesn't even feel apologetic for what happened?! Isn't he the one who wants me to apologize to him at the hospital?!

When something happens, you want an apology from us!

But then things are not in your favor, you pretended nothing had happened.

Bastards!

Dong Xuebing did not expect an apology from Li Feng, as he is a County's Mayor. It is impossible, but after creating so many troubles, he still instigates the Provincial Government to interfere with Yan Tai County affairs again?! You are too overbearing! Dong Xuebing knew Xie Huilan had gone to the City, and Xiang Daofa had complained to the City Government, are not because they wanted Peng Kenong's investment back or want Li Feng to be punished. They wanted an apology from Da Feng County! If not, how are they going to pacify Yan Tai County government staff?! Just because you have connections in the City and Provincial Governments, you don't need to apologize?!

"What are the leaders going to do?" Dong Xuebing asked.

"This will not be the end. I heard Party Secretary Xiang and Secretary Cao are furious. Mayor Xie is also…"

How can they not be angry? Da Feng County is shitting all over Yan Tai County again and again!

Dong Xuebing does not have a good temper in the first place and could not hold back anymore. "Sister Hu, this incident is started by our Investment Promotion Agency, and I should be responsible for this. Help me inform Mayor Xie that I will handle this! I swear I will give all the leaders a satisfactory outcome!"

"You? What are you going to do? Xuebing, you must not…"

Du… du… du… Dong Xuebing hangs up and drove back to the Investment Promotion Agency.

Lin Pingping had just returned to the Agency when she saw Dong Xuebing parking his car. She quickly got out of her car. "Chief, I heard the City government is not doing anything to Da Feng County for snatching our project. They claim this is healthy competition. They had come to our County to get investors. How can this be healthy competition?! Also, we had signed the intent to invest letter! They are too…"

Dong Xuebing interrupted Lin Pingping. "Notify all the department heads to come for a meeting!"

Lin Pingping got a shock and looks at her watch. Everyone should be having lunch in the cafeteria at this time. Still, after seeing Dong Xuebing's expression, she did not say anything and went to call the rest.

A few minutes later.

Top floor. Small meeting room.

When Lin Pingping informed the rest about the meeting, she also told them what she found out. Everyone thought yesterday's incident had ended. When they heard Da Feng County did not apologize for what happened and even used their connections in the Provincial Government to suppress them, they are furious!

This is not the end!

Li Feng had declared war on Yan Tai County!

When the meeting started, Sun Shuli, Jiang Hailiang, and the rest wanted to voice their opinions.

"Chief, Da Feng County…"

Dong Xuebing waved his hand to stop them. "I know what you all want to say. Our Agency started this incident, and we must take responsibility and settle it for our County since Da Feng County refuses to apologize. Fine! I will force them to give us an answer!" Dong Xuebing had said this before when he was furious, and he is saying this again!

Everyone is confused and didn't get what Dong Xuebing mean by forcing them to give us an answer.

Dong Xuebing continued to assign duties. "Old Sun, you will cover me when I am not around these few days. If any major decisions need to be made, discuss them with the rest in a meeting. If you all cannot get me through my phone, you all can go ahead with your decisions. Everyone must be on your toes."

Sun Shuli paused for a few seconds. You are not around? Where are you going?

Dong Xuebing continued. "Director Luo, our office operations must not go wrong. Business Section Chief Lin and Section Chief Jiang, you two must continue to get investments and try to get better results than last month."

Luo Haiting asked. "Chief, you are…"

Dong Xuebing calmly replied. "Da Feng County's investment fair is about to start. I felt they had done a good job, and many investors should be visiting the fair. I will be going over to take a look."

You are going there to take a look?

Are you sure you are going there to take a look?

Lin Pingping, Luo Haiting, and the rest were speechless. None of them believe Dong Xuebing will be just going there to take a look. Chief Dong is going…

Sun Shuli felt this is not a good idea. "Chief Dong, this…"

Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "That's it. Meeting dismissed. Go back to work. Director Luo, I will leave my Mercedes MPV where and will be driving the Camry. Ok! That's all!" He grabbed his bag and went downstairs for his car.

Luo Haiting, Lin Pingping, and the rest exchanged looks and knew Da Feng County had gone too far this time. They had thoroughly angered Chief Dong, and all of them knows his temper. They know Chief Dong will be going to Da Feng County's investment fair, and who knows what trouble is he going to get himself into there!

Guo Panwei ran after Dong Xuebing and wanted to drive for him.

But Dong Xuebing did not allow Guo Panwei to follow him. "Panwei, stay and familiarize yourself with the work here." This is to protect Guo Panwei as he does not want to implicate him. He is not going to Da Feng County to learn from their investment fair. He is going there to settle the score!

"Chief, I…"

"No need to say anymore. Go back now. If I need your help, I will call you."

Dong Xuebing boarded the Camry and sped out of the Agency towards Da Feng County.

…….

At the same time.

County Government Office building. Xie Huilan and Deputy Secretary Cao are having a meeting in her office.

Hu Silian waited for a long time, but Secretary Cao did not leave. She remembered what Dong Xuebing said over the phone, and she could not remain calm. She knocked on the door and entered. If it were someone, she would not inform Xie Huilan. A department's head whereabouts is not that important for the Mayor to be concerned. But this is Dong Xuebing, and it is different. Hu Silian had noticed Xie Huilan treated Dong Xuebing differently from others. That's why she decided to report to Xie Huilan as she knows Dong Xuebing will wreak havoc at Da Feng County this time.

Xie Huilan looks up at Hu Silian after getting interrupted.

Hu Silian quickly says. "Mayor Xie, there is an emergency."

"… what is it?" Xie Huilan and Cao Xupeng look at her.

Hu Silian replied. "I just spoke to Chief Dong over the phone, and he said it's his Agency that should be responsible for yesterday's incident. He wants me to tell you that he will settle this."

Cao Xupeng frowned. "How is he going to settle this? Is he going to create trouble again?" He is afraid of Dong Xuebing as he is a troublemaker.

Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes. "Call Xiao Dong and tell him I want to see him."

"I tried calling, but his phone is off." Hu Silian replied.

Xie Huilan did not say anything and made a call. "Hello, Mayor Zhao. Try to get in touch with Xiao Dong and ask him to come over to the County Government… yes… that's all."

Zhao Xinglong knew something might have happened and called Dong Xuebing's phone immediately. But Dong Xuebing's had switched off his phone, and he called the Investment Promotion Agency Office.

Luo Haiting answered. "Hello, Mayor Zhao?"

Zhao Xinglong asked. "Where is Xiao Dong? Get him to the phone."

"Chief Dong? He… has gone out and is not around."

"Gone out? Where did he go?"

"Err…" Luo Haiting hesitated but knew she could not keep this from the leaders. They will find out sooner or later. "Chief Dong had gone to Da Feng County?"

"Why is he going there?"

"I don't know. He did not say anything."

Zhao Xinglong's heart skipped a beat and quickly called the Mayor's Office. "Xiao Dong had just left for Da Feng County!"

Cao Xupeng got shocked. "Why is he going to Da Feng County?"

"What else can he do?" Xie Huilan smiled. She knows Dong Xuebing too well. "You should know his temper, and he believes in an eye for an eye. Da Feng County's investment fair is about to start, and they had snatched a project from us and almost caused him to lose his position. Yet, they still refused to apologize, and how can Xiao Dong stand it? He must be going there to snatch their projects."

"What?!"

Zhao Xinglong and Hu Silian were stunned!

Cao Xupeng also draws in a deep breath. He does not doubt what Mayor Xie said, as Xiao Dong will do such things!

But the City Government is treating this investment fair seriously and even featured the fair on the City's newspaper headlines!

Xiao Dong will take the bear by the tooth by snatching Da Feng County's investment right under their nose! He is going to slap Da Feng County in front of the whole City!

Li Feng might have snatched their project, but that is during normal times! If Yan Tai County is holding an investment fair, Da Feng County will not dare to snatch our investment. Both scenarios are different! The investment fair also carries political weight in it!

But Xiao Dong is going there to their investment fair to snatch their investors!

Damn!

This is too unethical!
