Carrying a Jurassic on me-Chapter 767 - 397: Prepare Several More_1

The staff member that Yan Fei had questioned took the materials Yan Fei handed over. He casually opened it and after reading it, he was not calm anymore. His words became stammered: "As for this, maybe you should ask Mayor Chen if it’s suitable to submit these materials when he comes?"

He was just a minor employee, Yan Fei dared to ask, but he really didn’t dare to express his opinion—he handed over incriminating materials during someone’s work inspection, which appeared to be an attempt to open the leader’s eyes!

Yan Fei was a bit regretful: "Okay then! When Mayor Chen comes, I will ask him."

The staff member was a bit embarrassed. The last time Yan Fei went to rent land, he went along. They also had previous interactions, making them somewhat familiar with each other. Now seeing Boss Yan actively coming to ask for his opinion, and him not daring to give an opinion, he felt somewhat guilty: "Maybe I should take another look?"

Yan Fei nodded: "Have a look! See if you can provide some suggestions!"

"What suggestion, I just want to take another look!" This guy humbly added a sentence.

Unexpectedly, after reading it for a while, he did come up with a suggestion: "Boss Yan, please don’t be upset after I speak out... Is this written in a formal style? If it’s prepared to be directly submitted to the leaders, there’s no need to be so formal. Some aspects can be slightly exaggerated, like the damages caused to our site."

"Be more specific, how can I make it less formal? How can I exaggerate more?" Yan Fei’s interest was aroused upon hearing this.

"Now I’m just speaking off the cuff, don’t blame me if I’m wrong," he started after issuing a warning. "It’s like writing a letter. For example, it’s a letter written to a leader. Just depict our situation as more tragic and slightly exaggerate the other party’s behavior. Don’t be too formal, appearing as a helpless rural entrepreneur who had to write this letter, hoping the leaders could uphold justice for us."

"After listening to you, I feel like this is similar to a primary school student tattling." Yan Fei muttered while stroking his chin, then asked again, "Will this work? What if Mayor Chen says it’s not suitable to submit?"

"If it’s not suitable today, there’s always tomorrow! If you get acquainted with them today, you can send materials directly next time. Look at how much beef you have lost, someone needs to be held accountable!" This guy laughed. "Since we are filing a complaint now, we have to be biased towards ourselves. Anyway, if it draws attention from above, it will be investigated again."

Deeply enlightened, Yan Fei nodded, took his materials and prepared to discuss it with his wife. When he hadn’t walked far, he saw Old Pan and Lin Baoguo coming.

As soon as Lin Baoguo saw Yan Fei, he praised: "You did well last night. I have to thank you this time."

Yan Fei was not modest at all: "Of course, look at which university my wife went to. Can’t I make some progress? Now my awareness is already extraordinary. I am not bragging, bring a few more of these advanced flags, and I will hang them in my office..."

As they saw him talking nonsense, Old Pan interrupted him with a laugh: "What are you holding in your hand? Where are you planning to go?"

When Yan Fei explained the situation, Old Pan said directly: "Since you have never done this before, why not let whoever suggested the idea to help you write it? It shouldn’t take much, any complaints you put forth will be enough. If the authorities pay attention, no matter how much you’ve written, it won’t be of any use."

People perceive Yan Fei to be mysterious and complicated, most know that he is not to be trifled with. To those who do not know him well, he’s like a hedgehog, completely covered in spines, and considered difficult to get along with. They feel that although he hasn’t reached the point of recklessness or ruthlessness, he isn’t far from it.

This impression is only half true. He is ruthless towards those who offend him personally, but ordinarily he behaves somewhat as a big boy. For example, right now. Old Pan knew, once that young man wanted to please him, Yan Fei could easily ask that young man for help. However, he believed that the person had already given his advice, and it would be embarrassing to bother him again.

Reminded by Old Pan, when Yan Fei went back to find that young man, he was quite willing to help, although he modestly said, "I’ll try my best. If you are not satisfied, it’s okay, my skill is actually not that great."

This is how people who have dealt with Yan Fei behave. If it is someone who doesn’t know him, they definitely wouldn’t dare to take up this task, for fear that if it’s not done well, they might offend someone. However, this young man has dealt with Yan Fei before, knowing that the rumors cannot be fully believed and that Boss Yan is not an unreasonable man.

Just like the Huangtuwa incident, during that time not only was Yan Fei dissatisfied, but those who went with him were also very uncomfortable. It was obvious that the village head was tricking people. He thought they were from the town and were a few young men who had never done farming work and didn’t understand agricultural affairs, so they could be fooled easily. But in reality, none of them were fools, who couldn’t see through it?

But Yan Fei didn’t say anything in the end, he just changed to a different village, and never mentioned any sort of revenge. If it were an individual who was truly arrogant, they would have dared to point their finger at the self-interested village leader and curse him. After the cursing, the village head would not dare to offend him and things would have to go his way in the future.

From this it can be seen that justice lies in the hearts of the people. Being reasonable has its benefits, at least people are willing to come and interact. They may not necessarily seek any large benefits from Boss Yan, but rather establish a good connection.

Turning back, Yan Fei continued to entertain Old Pan and Lin Baoguo. The matter can be said to be related or unrelated to the two of them. It depends on how it is said. If it was related it’s in keeping the local area safe - if security were really chaotic, the farmers definitely wouldn’t be willing to raise cattle. Indeed, there are places where due to security issues, the farmers are unwilling to raise cattle, which is the reality of the situation.

Even without these things, considering the relationship they’ve had all along, Yan Fei still needed to speak up favorably. He didn’t need to mention his own uncle, who was already a family member. Old Pan was indeed a passionate person and had helped out a lot. Despite his busy schedule with his usual training programs, he never really complained.

Now that they were seeing some results for their hard work, and considering that Yan Fei himself didn’t want to draw too much attention, he knew what he needed to do.

Beginning from the afternoon, several consecutive calls came in from the county office, notifying them about the approximate arrival time of the visitors from the city, as well as stressing some other important points. In essence, they were asked to pay attention to minor details. It wouldn’t be quite right if a worker suddenly popped up pushing a cartload of cow dung while the leaders were happily touring the cow shed, would it?

Yan Fei thought it was just like those sanitation checks back in elementary school. Every time, they’d pick up the garbage, clean up, sprinkle some water, and even out uneven areas with sand to make it all look perfect. No one cared whether there was a rubbish pile under a puddle of water or mud - it was what the surface looked like that mattered. Back then, the students would often carry baskets to the riverside, dig up sand, and pave a layer at the entrance of their own classrooms.

Yan Fei argued a whole lot about this at the time. There were always a few good students in the class who stood with their notebooks and took notes about who had dug up how much sand. These people didn’t do any work.

The key was that such goodies never came his way. He didn’t enjoy carrying the load with someone else as little jerks would consider him clumsy and intentionally put the load closer to him. So, he always carried a small basket on his own and brought back some sand. Luckily, he was considered a special student and was treated favorably. Regardless of how much he brought back, they’d count it as him having worked...

As he lost himself in these thoughts, he realized he had some free time again.

As for looking good on the surface, the few people appointed from the countryside were very experienced. Plus, it wasn’t their first time here, and they were already familiar with everyone on the farm. They coordinated and attended to everything, and Yan Fei wasn’t needed at all.

Inside the house, Xu Xiaoyan and the others were also busy cleaning the already tidy rooms once again. It left Yan Fei, Lin Baoguo, and Old Pan with no choice but to stand outside until they were called in after the cleaning. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Mayor Chen fittingly arrived on time. Even though the people sent from the city this time could only be considered as the vanguard, they were still of decent rank. After all, there are third-rank officials at the prime minister’s doorstep. It’s always beneficial to treat guests with respect.

Yan Fei came over with several freshly written pages and asked Mayor Chen, "Uncle Chen, what do you think of this letter? Is it appropriate to hand it in while the city officials are here?"

After Mayor Chen had a quick look, he knew what it was all about. They were all from the same town after all; there was no way he wouldn’t know about this, even if Yan Fei and Old Pan hadn’t mentioned it before. He merely pretended not to know.

After reading, he paused for a brief moment before nodding, "It’s fitting to hand it over to this first batch of visitors. If you were to do it when the official leaders come over, it would feel like an unexpected attack. Hand it over in a while! See if there’s anything else that needs to be prepared. I’ll take a stroll around the farm and you can call me if anything comes up!"

As soon as Mayor Chen left, Old Pan and Lin Baoguo followed along with him. Yan Fei entered with the few pages and suddenly paused, "Right, I forgot to ask Mayor Chen who it’s suitable to hand this to. Should I pass it to Xiaobin or give it directly to the leader? What if they don’t end up giving it to the higher-ups after we hand it over to them?"

There were only a few women in the room now. None of them could give him a suggestion.

Yan Fei wanted to rush out and ask again but then decided not to. Holding the pages he called out to his aunt and the others, "You guys, if you’re free I could use your help with copying this letter. Copy a few versions so we can hand them out to the leaders to prevent any malicious hiding."

Xu Xiaoyan was puzzled, "Aren’t you thinking a bit much? Who dares to casually hide something like this?"

Yan Fei felt justified, "It’s hard to say. What if someone thinks this minor issue isn’t worth mentioning and doesn’t want to spoil the leaders’ mood? They might verbally agree with us and then not hand it over after they leave. Or, they could have a relationship with the person who’s been detained. If they don’t hand it in, we wouldn’t even know about it. Let’s copy a few more versions and distribute more of them. We can also save a few for the next time the reporters come. Give it to everybody we meet. Only then will we be absolutely certain..."

Seeing him like this, Xu Xiaoyan couldn’t help but obey. "Given how you’re talking, it’s as if no one cares about this issue. Alright then, give it to me! We’ll quickly copy it out. How many pages in total? That’s perfect. Let’s decide to copy one page at a time. It’ll be faster."

Handing the papers to Xiang Rui, she picked up a pen and started copying while mumbling, "Do you think all people in power are like you, dealing with things as they please?"

Yan Fei took a copy of the paper and began copying next to Xu Xiaoyan, "This is just to make sure we’re playing safe. After all, it’s just a few pieces of paper, not an expense."

After making one round of copies, he frowned a little, "I wonder how many people will come. We will keep one copy, but will the rest be enough for one per person?"

Before he could decide whether to make more copies, someone standing guard upstairs yelled, "Hurry up, I see the cars approaching..."
