Chapter 1386: My Own Money

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Why do 1 feel that theres 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?

Lets go down and take a look first. Lin Yi smiled.

Id like to know whats 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 Yis character very well, and they didnt think that he could do such a thing.

At the entrance of the office building, countless people who pa.s.sed by also surrounded the area. Other than eating, drinking, and p.o.o.ping, these commoners greatest hobby was to watch drama.

What are you doing?! w.a.n.g 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 dont have the chance to go. We want an explanation.

w.a.n.g Yunjiangs face was cold as he looked at the people holding the banners below. His expression was very ugly.

He knew Lin Yis 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 w.a.n.g has placed a lot of trust in you, giving you full responsibility for this matter. I didnt expect you to be playing this kind of game behind the scenes. Can you justify Secretary w.a.n.gs trust in you?

Yu Zhaoxi and Zhou Feng echoed each other and pointed the spearhead at Lin Yi.

Coupled with the other peoples accusations, he looked like he was being condemned by everyone.

Im 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.

Were all farmers in the county. Were 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 w.a.n.g Yunjiang,

Secretary w.a.n.g, our county is at a critical moment of poverty eradication. Now that such a thing has happened, we have to deal with it seriously.

w.a.n.g Yunjiangs eyes darted around. With Lin Yis 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 dont have to add insult to injury. Its pointless.

At this point, Lin Yi could not be bothered to be polite.

Since Im in charge of this matter, its up to me to decide who to choose. I dont think you people have the right to say anything about my decisions.

Why should you decide? Youre not doing good for the commoners, and youre even using your position for personal gain. How can you have the cheek to say this?

But Im the one who is leading the study in the northeast. i pay for the entire process myself, so who Im 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 dont understand. Whats the point of sending such a huge force to suppress me?

What did you say? Youre 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 w.a.n.g has approved my expenditure.

Yu Zhaoxi looked at w.a.n.g Yunjiang, but the latter was expressionless and answered his question with silence.

Thats impossible. Stop fooling us. Who would be stupid enough to use their money to do official business! The person holding the banner said.

If youre really that rich, why are you still working here?

Couldnt 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 isnt expensive. Its 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 w.a.n.g 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.

Im really impressed that you can think of such a clumsy trick.

What are you talking about? 1 dont understand. Yu Zhaoxi pretended to be calm.

It doesnt matter if you dont get it now. Youll understand in no time.

Lin Yi looked at w.a.n.g Yunjiang. Secretary w.a.n.g, get someone to arrest these troublemakers. I want to sue them for a.s.saulting me and harming my reputation. Im prepared to pursue this matter to the end.

Ill take care of this.

w.a.n.g 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 w.a.n.g Yunjiang had called someone to arrest them, the people who reported Lin Yi panicked.

We didnt do it on purpose. Why are you arresting us?!

You guys are brainless. You dont even know that youve been used. Lin Yi said.

But if you tell me the truth and tell me who the mastermind is, well call it even. Otherwise, even I dont know when youll 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 dont know anything else.

You, what nonsense are you talking about? What has this got to do with me?!

Its you. You asked your brother-in-law, Zhang Bangyong, to come and find us. Dont think that we dont know!

Yu Zhaoxis forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was fl.u.s.tered.

Dont be ridiculous. i didnt do this!

Yu Zhaoxi, look at what youve done! w.a.n.g Yunjiang snorted.

Secretary w.a.n.g, you have to believe me. Ive really never done such a thing!

I dont want to hear any explanations. Ill report this matter to the higher-ups.. As for the outcome, you can leave it to fate!
