Chapter 1745: Chapter 1747: A Simple Favor
Feng Jun’s classmates were truly overwheld upon entering the estate; aside from the scenery, the countless beauties were also a dizzying sight.
Wang Qianqiu couldn’t help but exclaim, “You have so many beauties here, it’s like you could open a movie company.”
Yu Qingzhu heard the remark and gave him a glance, a look devoid of any emotion, but the Little Princess of the Yu Family always carried an air of superiority when looking at n—who are you comparing to?
“Let’s talk about it later,” Feng Jun also knew that although Yu Qingzhu seed harmless, her presence was not sothing regular people could withstand, “Let introduce my classmates first.”
So, Feng Jun led everyone to take a walk around the area, looking at the mountains, and then at the big river. In the misty Spirit Gathering Array, so were cultivating, but he didn’t elaborate much and instead pointed to a yacht by the shore.
“That’s my boat. At night, you can take a ride on the river and see Zhengyang’s night view. You’ve co at the right ti, in a few more days it’ll be cold at night… By the way, there’s a barbecue on the boat, are you interested?”
“Let’s have beer on the boat,” Cao Rui, with a good physique and not a small alcohol tolerance, said, “Having a barbecue requires soone to grill, plus the boat is unstable.”
Feng Jun chuckled, “There’s soone in charge of the barbecue; the waves in the big river aren’t too big, the boat is very stable, but it depends on whether you want to… although in this weather, a barbecue might feel a bit chilly.”
This ti Zhao Mingshun chid in, “Boss Feng, how much did your yacht cost?”
Feng Jun frowned and thought carefully, “How much… One or two million, I forgot the specifics.”
All the classmates rolled their eyes in unison, and another female classmate Bai Na extended a thumb, “Indeed… a true Big Boss.”
Feng Jun indicated he wouldn’t respond to that comnt, “But I’m not here most of the ti, only use it once or twice a year.”
He really wanted to consider his classmates’ feelings, but… no need to be too hypocritical, right?
Bai Na, being a bit bold, was barely of average looks, so she didn’t have any reservations, “Big Boss, what’s your main business now? Jade or that Cancer Care Center?”
The main business is the Cultivation Path, but would I say that? Feng Jun smiled and replied, “I dabble in logistics, whatever makes money.”
“Logistics?” Zhang Guofeng, who hadn’t spoken, had his eyes light up, “Do you have connections on the railroad?”
“No connections,” Feng Jun shook his head, answering straightly, but in the next mont, he changed his tone, “Tell what you want to transport; if it’s not too sensitive, I’ll help you sort it out.”
“Really nothing sensitive,” Zhang Guofeng replied earnestly, “Building stones… Our county’s primary project, but we’re lacking railway wagons to ship them out.”
When he graduated from university, because of his poor grades, he didn’t go through campus recruitnt but opted to return ho. His parents, with so influence in the county, helped him secure a temporary position which has now beco permanent.
Though the area has officially transitioned from county to district, it essentially remains a remote county district, and locals still refer to it as a county.
“County matters…” Feng Jun got a bit tangled when he heard the situation, “I can help you, no problem, but whether you can have practical benefits?”
Zhang Guofeng hesitated a bit but then nodded, “Yes, the county has a reward system; others won’t cheat out of it; when I make money…”
“Hold it,” Feng Jun waved his hand and then pulled out a walkie-talkie, “When you make money, just treat to a al… Say anything else, and I won’t handle this matter, okay?”
He always wanted to be approachable, but… really can’t go back to how things were; just this faint “okay” instantly made Zhang Guofeng feel the imposing aura.
So he could only smile and reply, “No problem about the al, even a full banquet is fine.”
The two female classmates looked skyward, pretending not to hear.
Feng Jun pressed down the walkie-talkie, “There’s a matter, over at Neiyang, who can secure affordable railcars? It’s for regular use.”
“,” Beauty Lin was the first to respond; these guys were getting increasingly outrageous now, taking advantage of Feng Jun’s leniency, even managing two walkie-talkies and integrating into Luohua’s frequency, “How many regularly?”
“Stay out of it,” Xu Leigang’s voice erged, “Leave Neiyang to ; if they dare deny railcars, I’ll tear down their ho, kidnap my godson!”
That sounds like so camaraderie battle talk. Beauty Lin was unconvinced, “Co on, Xu Leigang, tell who you’re contacting?”
“Ahem,” a soft cough ca through the walkie-talkie, from a woman, her voice leisurely, “You’re saying Neiyang belongs to the Jin City section? Are you implying I’m insignificant?”
Once Yang Yuxin got upset, Beauty Lin had to kneel; she instantly fell silent.
Before long, her voice ca through the walkie-talkie again, “Take down a phone number, just contact this person directly…”
Zhang Guofeng quickly jotted down the number and na on his mobile phone, then looked at Feng Jun in astonishnt, “This lady, she, she, she… how should I address her?”
Feng Jun thought for a mont, feeling it wasn’t appropriate to directly ntion Yang Yuxin’s na, “Just say, she’s Gu Jiahui’s mother.”
“Alright,” Zhang Guofeng nodded and made a note on his mobile phone.
He wasn’t in a hurry to make the call because at least three people had expressed over the walkie-talkie that they could secure a railcar, and they seed quite confident.
These days, there are many who boast, but actually accomplishing sothing is another matter altogether, especially in a small place like Neiyang, where many people scam under various pretenses, claiming to have provincial or ministerial connections, hard to discern.
However, it could be ascertained that this last woman seed the most assertive and seed to be doing well in the provincial capital, Jin City. Her credibility was the highest; if she couldn’t do it, no need to contact the other two.
They chatted for a few more minutes when Zhang Guofeng’s phone rang. Although he didn’t want to interrupt the classmates’ conversation, upon seeing the number, he walked aside to take the call, “Hello, Director Liu.”
Director Liu’s voice was a bit displeased, “Xiao Zhang, why aren’t you back yet? Just attending a school celebration, it’s been days, hasn’t it?”
Zhang Guofeng wasn’t very afraid of Director Liu because he was basically Liu’s man—in strict terms, Director Liu was his father’s classmate.
So he explained in a low voice, “Director Liu, I ca to Zhengyang to see a classmate who’s particularly capable. The school sent a car for us to visit together… Maybe we can get a railcar, I’m also handling county affairs.”
“The school sent a car?” Director Liu was quite sensitive to such matters. Jiangxia University isn’t a typical school. If Jiangxia University sends a car for alumni visits, those alumni are certainly significant, “Is this the one who donated a million?”
This remark alone showed their relationship was indeed good.
However, the next mont, Director Liu’s voice beca excited, “Damn it… you are in Zhengyang? Director Yang is also in Zhengyang!”
“Director Yang?” Zhang Guofeng expressed his confusion, “I don’t know who Director Yang is… male or female?”
“Director Yang is definitely female, haven’t you heard of Jin City Yang Family?” Director Liu was excited, “Soone from the railway just called, saying they’d allocate so transport capacity for us, supposedly at Director Yang’s request, just wanted to know who made a ss up…”
A call from Yang Yuxin was not casually made. Upon receiving her call, instead of thinking about how to please Director Yang, people’s first instinct was to consider… Who the hell did I offend?
Jin City is the stronghold of the Yang Family, with many posing under various flags, but generally, everyone had sharp eyes—it’s the hotown, after all, everybody knows who’s genuinely important and who’s just inflating things.
But now, with a mistake in resource allocation, people’s first thought was, of course, to appease the Yang Family’s anger.
Sure, the Yang Family showed signs of decline, lacking prominent figures, but Yang Yuxin married into the Gu Family—alright, although Yang Yuxin’s husband died in a car accident, her brother-in-law is currently very influential!
Hence the saying “a centipede dies but never falls”—the Yang Family looked like it was in trouble, yet Yang Yuxin was still holding things up.
When Yang Yuxin greeted that person, they were instantly panicked, the call to Neiyang was straightforward and blunt, “I might have neglected soone before, if there are any complaints, bring them up, damn it, you think having Director Yang target ? You’re not even at that level!”
Over in Neiyang, the experienced ones knew that the only one who could cause such a reaction from Director Yang was just that soone—you’re anxious? Being anxious is right, since you’re always denying us railcars, are you even justified?
To be honest, there were quite a few people here who could connect with Yang Yuxin, but whether their words could reach her was doubtful, as for influencing Yang Yuxin? Only heaven knows.
Once the railway segnt in Jin City erupted, several people claiming connections with Yang Yuxin rushed to make calls—what was Director Yang up to today?
Nobody really knew what Yang Yuxin was thinking, and she wasn’t comfortable sharing that either. Her beliefs had shifted, let alone ntioning her complicated ties with Feng Jun that couldn’t be explained to others.
But anyway, although these people couldn’t get a word in, they knew that Yang Yuxin had been staying in Zhengyang for so ti—occasionally going out for other engagents, but mostly being there.
“Director Yang is female?” Zhang Guofeng was stunned, tentatively asked, “Gu Jiahui’s mother?”
“Gu Jiahui’s mother?” Director Liu mumbled in confusion, then quickly caught on, “Oh, yes! She’s the Gu Family’s daughter-in-law… Gosh, Guofeng, you really hit the jackpot, being able to latch onto the Gu Family!”
“Uncle Liu,” when Zhang Guofeng heard him even say “Gosh”, he knew he couldn’t address him as Director Liu anymore, his identity needed switching, “Uncle Liu, it’s not my connection, it’s my classmate’s connection… Which Gu Family are you referring to?”
