Ten minutes later, the Qiao family's car stopped outside the yard of the Yanjing Municipal Construction Committee.

Li Xiangnan, Wang Defa and Qiao Henwan sat in the car and looked into the yard. Four or five Jeep 212s were parked in the yard. Uniformed staff were escorting people out of the building and putting them into the jeeps one by one.

"I came here this morning, intending to ask their deputy director about the situation at Site 12. I had just climbed the stairs and wasn't even inside when a car suddenly pulled up behind me. Three or four people got out in a hurry and rushed into the building, issuing orders as they went. They said they had to bring the person back today. I looked outside and saw cars constantly coming in. Seeing this, I remembered what you said last night and immediately felt that something was wrong..."

Qiao Henwan was still feeling scared as he recalled the thrilling scene in the car.

Li Xiangnan nodded, stuck his head in and stared inside, counting the officials who had been arrested.

Those people were not handcuffed, but were taken to the car by two staff members.

Suddenly, he saw someone who looked vaguely familiar.

Wen Xianping!

Although Li Xiangnan didn't know him, the man's facial features were somewhat similar to those of Sun Jie's wife, Sister-in-law Wen Li. He guessed that he should be Sister-in-law Wen Li's father.

"Hey? Isn't that Zhu Xuanlong?"

Wang Defa's exclamation interrupted Li Xiangnan's thoughts. He turned his head and saw Zhu Xuanlong being taken into the second jeep by several people.

Congratulations Xuanlong!

Head of the Approval Section of the Construction Committee.

He also has another identity, the Mu family's in-laws.

How come he was caught too?

Li Xiangnan frowned.

He remembered what Defa said, that he learned about the land corruption case from the conversation between An and his son.

Logically speaking, the corruption investigation must be kept confidential, and the An father and son should have no way of knowing that Plot No. 12 was involved in a corruption case.

If they knew, they would probably have been called in for questioning.

The An father and son learned from comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission or the Procuratorate that there were major problems with Plot No. 12, which was An Youjun's land!

But what exactly went wrong with that piece of land? Why did the Construction Committee alone arrest so many people and bring them back for investigation?

"Let's go!" Wang Defa suddenly reminded again.

Li Xiangnan turned his head and saw that the jeeps were driving out of the yard one after another.

"Follow!" He patted the front seat, signaling the driver to follow.

Seeing his resolute attitude, Qiao Henwan asked in surprise, "Do you suspect... they're going to arrest other people?"

"Look first and then talk!"

Li Xiangnan himself was not sure.

He always felt that the problem with that piece of land was not simply a matter for the Construction Committee.

Soon, we followed the convoy quietly and arrived at the Yanjing Municipal Finance Bureau.

After arresting two people here, the convoy headed north again and took away three more people from the Agricultural Bureau, Forestry Bureau and Civil Affairs Bureau. Finally, they went to the street office and the police station to take away two more people. Only then did the team march into the compound of the Discipline Inspection Commission in a mighty manner.

In the evening, the three people who had followed us all the way had dinner at a state-owned restaurant next to the notary office opposite the Discipline Inspection Commission compound.

None of the three spoke.

The shock brought to the three people throughout the afternoon was absolutely unprecedented.

How determined were the higher-ups? How big a problem was involved with that piece of land that they brought so many people from so many departments back for questioning at once?

What Qiao Henwan said was absolutely right. There was an earthquake in the officialdom of Yanjing.

The arrest of so many people will definitely cause panic in the entire Yanjing officialdom.

But what is even greater is the deterrent force brought about by an inexplicable pressure.

This time, it might be for real!

After Shen Yujing shocked the entire Yanjing population, it seemed that the coming of this storm had been foreshadowed.

"Don't worry, the stricter the inspection, the better it will be for ordinary people like us! A clean and honest official atmosphere will directly improve our business environment!"

After a quick dinner, Li Xiangnan comforted Qiao Henwan before parting.

"Don't worry, we have nothing to do with Plot 12! The only uncertainty is what role Lin Weiguo played in it!"

"I know!" Qiao Henwan nodded. After going through so many things, her character had become much tougher. She smiled and said hello, "Then I'll go back and take a look! I'll also tell Taozi about this."

After saying that, she got into the car and drove away.

Li Xiangnan and his companion walked along the outer wall of the hospital to the territory of the pharmaceutical factory next door. There were already lime lines on the ground, and they would start building the foundation tomorrow.

"Taozi is really fast. It seems that she and Henwan haven't been playing every day during this period. She has arranged many things in advance!" Wang Defa said with emotion.

"Well, Gong Kaijiang is still in Yanjing. I asked him to patronize Taozi. Otherwise, it is unrealistic for a female comrade like her to supervise the construction of a factory!" As he spoke, Li Xiangnan took out a cigarette and gave it to Defa.

"After all, they're all from the Red Emblem Chamber of Commerce, so they're one of us! Don't worry!" Wang Defa agreed. He took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "Have you planned the production line for the pharmaceutical factory? Should we make it ourselves or import it? We can do both simultaneously."

"This isn't urgent! The current director of the Science and Technology Department is Xu Hanlin. We don't have to worry about the approval of the patients we saved before! It's about this production line you mentioned..."

Li Xiangnan frowned, "I'm afraid I need to discuss this matter with Taozi! After all, we still have to respect the Jiang family's intellectual property rights, and we have to consider their privacy when designing this!"

"reasonable!"

The two walked to the vicinity of Plot 12. From afar, the construction shed and the half-finished steel bar warehouse were exposed under the starry night, like shadowy and dormant monsters.

"On the third day after you went to the Ji family, the people on the construction site left. I don't know where the An family arranged them to go!" Wang Defa explained.

Li Xiangnan nodded lightly, looked up at the more than 100 acres of open space, and suddenly smiled.

"Fatty, what do you think, if this piece of land falls into my hands one day..."

"???" Wang Defa suddenly turned around, his mouth opened in surprise. He was stunned for a long time before he used his hand to pull his stunned chin back. He said in surprise, "Xiao Li, you have to know that this piece of land is not cheap! If the government can transfer this land, that would be great, but it will cost a lot to get it!"

Li Xiangnan did not deny it and nodded silently.

"Let's not think about it for now! Let's go home first. Come with me, Brother Guoqing and Sister Dujuan are here!"

"Really? Oh my!" Wang Defa was delighted and immediately broke into a run. "Hurry up! I haven't seen them for a while, and I miss them so much!"

Li Xiangnan followed with a smile.

This night was extremely lively.

The next morning, Li Xiangnan rushed to school early to report, and asked for leave from the department head Zheng Tongxi. After giving the note to the teacher, he rode his bike to the Ministry of Health.

He made an appointment with Lin Jianzhou to meet at the department today.

After signing and waiting all the way upstairs, I finally met Lin Jianzhou at the office door at nine o'clock. He had been in a hurried meeting for an hour.

"Xiao Li, come in and sit down. I've been out for a month and I'm feeling so much! We need to have a good chat today! I have a lot to tell you! Please come in!"
