Lin Yi understood Yang Guangxiaâs words.
Although he was very rich now, in the eyes of those in power, he was indeed nothing.
Even if he developed the photolithography machine, his influence would still be lacking.
However, if he entered the circle of power, his future was limitless.
âI got it.â
âAs long as you understand.â Yang Guangxia said,
âDonât forget to send me some meat when you slaughter the pig. Iâm still waiting to eat some pork.â
âIâll send it to you before anyone else. Youâre already so old. Can you not be so greedy?â
âThen 1â11 wait.â
After chatting for a while, Lin Yi got out of the car and left.
Watching Lin Yi leave, Mo Hongshan said,
âChief, isnât it a little too early to tell him this?â
âOn the other hand, I think it is timely. He participated in the Central Guards Brigadeâs operation a few days ago and received a personal second-class merit. Although 1 donât know what he did, you should know how difficult it is to obtain a second-class merit.â
âHe got a second-class meritorious service award right after he joined the mission?â
Mo Hongshan and Gao Chong were shocked.
âIâve been in the army for so many years, but Iâve only gotten a third-class merit.â
âThe Central Guards Brigadeâs operations are all very confidential, so 1 didnât ask much about this. However, the fact that he was able to obtain a second-class merit is enough to show that Lin Yi did something earth-shattering. Ordinary people wouldnât have been able to do such a thing.â
âChief, are you saying these things because youâre afraid that heâll turn traitor?â
âIâm worried about that. Heâs too outstanding. I reckon it wonât be long before heâs targeted by people outside the borders. All kinds of temptations will follow, and such things are common in the history of the Central Guards Brigade. 1 know heâs not that kind of person, but I still have to do what needs to be done. Iâm really afraid that heâll go down the wrong path.â
Mo Hongshan and Gao Chong looked at each other and smiled.
âI donât think thatâs possible. His temperament is far more tenacious than we imagined. He wonât be tempted by those things. I believe that it wonât be long before he becomes the sword of the Central Guards Brigade. Itâs only a matter of time before he completely conquers Tilia Island.â
âHahaâ¦â Yang Guangxia laughed. âI think so too. I havenât seen such an interesting person in so many years. I believe he wonât disappoint me.â
After leaving the hospital, Lin Yi drove to Tangchen First Class.
When he arrived, Du Dahai and Du Yao had already set up their stall.
âBrother Lin, why are you so late? Iâve been waiting for you for a long time.â
Du Yao walked over and said.
âSomething came up at home, so I was delayed.â
Lin Yi looked at the dishes in front of Du Dahai. âBusiness should be good. Only half of your stuff is left.â
âItâs going much better than yesterday. 1 expect itâll be sold out by noon.â
Lin Yi nodded. âFrom now on, if we have any vegetables at home, we can sell them here. Itâs much better than going out to the county.â
Du Dahai smiled honestly.
âItâs because you set up a stall here that 1 dared to follow you. If you donât come in the future, 1â11 have to go to the county city.â
âWhat are you afraid of? Iâve already reserved the spot for you. Just set it up here. No one will disturb you.â
âThat wonât do either,â Du Dahai said.
âNot many people in the village know that Iâm selling vegetables here now. If this goes on for too long and news of this spreads in the village, they will definitely call you and ask you to help them get the permit to sell vegetables in the city. When that happens, youâll be disturbed. 1 canât cause trouble for you.â
âThatâs true.â Lin Yi smiled.
Lin Yi liked to stay in Happiness Village mainly because of these simple villagers.
They were very self-aware and knew how to think about others. They did not like to burden each other. Everyone was very honest.
âBrother Lin, donât chat with my father for now. I have something to ask you.â
Du Yao pulled Lin Yi aside excitedly with a mysterious expression.
âWhat happened?â
Du Yao took out her phone and opened the app for QQvideos.
âBrother Lin, 1 watched a wilderness survival program this morning. Thereâs someone who looks exactly like you and has the same name. Was it you?â
Lin Yi looked at the video.
It was the show that Yan Ci had recorded previously. He didnât expect it to start showing so quickly.
âI recorded it for fun some time ago. Donât make a fuss. Itâs not a big deal.â
âIsnât it a big deal?â Du Yaoâs eyes lit up.
âYouâve been filmed in a show. Coupled with your looks, as long as you work hard, it wonât be a problem for you to become a celebrity. Most importantly, youâre in the same group as Zhao Yinian. This wall bring about a huge wave of popularity.â
âSheâs just a B-list celebrity. How much traffic can she have?â
âThatâs where youâre wrong.â Du Yao said.
âBecause of this show, sheâs already popular. Moreover, a few days ago, she even appeared in a television drama. Although sheâs also acting as the second female lead, sheâs very popular. Sheâs constantly trending on Weibo and will soon step into the ranks of A-list female celebrities. If you were in same group as her during this show, your value will definitely rise in the future. You might even become an A-list celebrity.â
âDonât you know my situation? 1 really canât be bothered with those small sums of money.â
âTrue.â
Du Yao recalled the night she came to Zhonghai. She had spent more than 300,000 yuan on food and accommodation. Brother Lin didnât even blink. He must be someone who didnât lack money. He probably wouldnât get involved in the entertainment industry.
âDonât waste Little Yiâs time. Help me get the fruits from the car,â Du Dahai said.
âGot it, Dad.â
Du Yao helped Lin Yi move the fruits out of the car and prepared to work.
At noon, Du Yao went to buy three lunch boxes, and lunch was settled just like that.
âBy the way, you come here to sell vegetables every day. Donât you have to attend school classes anymore?â
âI resigned half a month ago. Iâm preparing for the second round now.â
âAre you done with the written test?â
âI finished that a long time ago.â Du Yao smiled and said.
âThe interview is in ten days. Iâm a little worried. 1 only did my internship to get more experience, but Iâm afraid Iâll still be nervous during the interview.â
âWhat was your score on the written test?â
Because he had worked in school for a period of time, Lin Yi had some understanding of the postgraduate entrance examination.
The school admitted postgraduate students based on the combined results of the written examination and interview.
Therefore, if the written test results were high, the pressure she would face during the interview would not be so great.
âThe written test results werenât ideal. Although I passed, I was ranked eighth. I still have to work hard during the interview.â
âYour results are not bad. Itâs not as bad as you think. Thereâs still a high chance you will make it.â
âThank you, Brother Lin. 1â11 work hard.â
At around one in the afternoon, Du Dahaiâs vegetables were almost sold out. It wouldnât take long for them to finish their work for the day.
On the other hand, Lin Yiâs business was bleak.
Although many people approached to inquire about the fruits, they scoffed when they heard the price.
He only sold a total of 10,000 yuan worth of goods. It could be described as a tragic sight.
At this moment, Lin Yi saw two female mounted police officers stop in front of his stall.
He muttered in his heart.
First, it was the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, then the general police, and now the traffic police.
Did he need all the official departments to come over to inspect his stall before he could properly conduct his business?
