Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

"Lin Yi, I haven't been to the construction site these days. How is the construction of the community going now?"

Huangfu Qingling sat down and asked slowly, her face full of relaxation.

Although there are still some "government affairs" to deal with, she now also does not forget to rest.

"There have been some problems on the construction site recently."

"I want to ask Mr. Bao to solve it."

Lin Yi ordered a glass of wine and spoke slowly.

"It shouldn't be a small matter for you to come and look for Bao Bu Tong, right?"

Huangfu Qingling frowned slightly, feeling that things were not simple.

Afterwards, Lin Yi told the whole story.

He also mentioned his own speculations.

"Logically speaking, it is indeed very likely that Zhou Chaoxian was the first."

Bao Bu Tong analyzed, "However, we still need to gather enough evidence."

"Lin Yi, I think if you just tell everyone that this is something arranged by the court, won't all the problems be solved?"

Huangfu Qingling spoke slowly, "Actually, you can be bolder about these things. There's no need to restrain yourself."

After all, in any matter, "the emperor" and "the imperial court" can overwhelm all businessmen!

Even Lin Yi can do whatever he wants!

"Yeah, Lin Yi, you don't have to be so restrained."

"If the imperial court wanted you to build a residential complex, why would those merchants be so difficult?"

Bao Bu Tong also tends to think this way.

"No, with great power comes great responsibility."

Lin Yi shook his head slightly. "If we can use the name of the emperor and the court to oppress others today, then someone else can do the same tomorrow."

His voice was serious, and the meaning was profound.

Even Huangfu Qingling was in awe.

She had never seen such a restrained person who could work seriously from the time she was born to the time she became the empress!

This reminded her of Lin Yi's previous behavior and thoughts.

This person really only wants to make money, and he even wants to make money under the moral code!

Although he earns a lot, he never owes anyone anything!

Huangfu Qingling's shocked heart was filled with a hint of joy.

This is the prime minister candidate she has been looking for!

Someone who can truly assist you!

He claims to only want to make money, but he truly upholds justice, kindness, and benevolence... He doesn't even have a desire for power...

"Business is business. Since I'm doing business, I can't abuse my power and wantonly intimidate others."

Lin Yi continued, "We'd better ask Mr. Bao to come forward as the official in this matter."

"There's no problem showing up."

Bao Bu Tong nodded slightly, agreeing with Lin Yi's thinking. "We should have come up with the same idea!"

After that, the two of them spoke in unison about how to find evidence.

Then wait and fish!

If you pretend you didn't notice anything, the criminal will strike again or even multiple times.

As long as we stake out the right position and conduct sting operations, we can catch the person no matter what!

After saying that, Bao Bu Tong and Lin Yi laughed, and Huangfu Qingling also smiled knowingly for having such capable ministers in the future.

From the second day on, the construction site seemed calm. Lin Yi simply ordered the substandard cement to be re-burned.

But secretly, Bao Bu Tong had sent people disguised as people to enter the refugee group and start collecting evidence.

On the one hand, we always have someone on duty at the cement burning site to ensure safety.

On the other hand, through visits and conversations, we can find out whether there is a "traitor" inside or outside.

After several days of visits and investigations, as well as surveillance, Bao Bu Tong had a complete grasp of the entire case.

However, the situation of cement has not improved much.

Cement burned at night will become thin when it is ready to be used during the day.

Only by confirming that the cement is well burned during the day can the quality be guaranteed.

As Lin Yi's movements slowed down, Zhou Chaoxian next door had already proudly built the framework of a ten-story hotel and had even begun filling in the walls step by step.

After collecting enough evidence, Bao Bu Tong took action to close in and arrest the suspects.

Two days later, Bao Bu Tong brought his men and Lin Yi to Zhou Chaoxian.

"Mr. Zhou, we already have enough evidence."

"You deliberately destroyed the materials on Lin Yi's construction site!"

When Bao Bu Tong said this on behalf of the government, Zhou Chaoxian pretended to be surprised, with a hint of innocence on his face.

"Ah? I don't have any!"

Zhou Chaoxian's voice was innocent. "I've been arranging the construction of my own building. How could I possibly destroy other people's materials?"

Having said this, he spread his hands and shrugged.

"Don't bother to make excuses. Just come with us."

"We already have enough evidence."

Bao Bu Tong said this and took Zhou Chao away first.

Next to the prefect's cell, in the interrogation room.

Zhou Chaoxian sat inside with a relaxed look on his face.

He had already prepared himself mentally for being caught and was working on turning himself into a "non-stick pan".

"You said I destroyed Lin Yi's materials. How could I destroy them alone?"

"These people are mine? I've never seen a time when they were mine?"

"You didn't deliberately send someone to arrest me, did you?"

……

Faced with Bao Bu Tong's questions, Zhou Chaoxian's counter-questions directly put him in a completely unrelated position. Even if the people who were caught before confessed directly, they could not implicate Zhou Chaoxian in any way.

"Lin Yi, should I find some more evidence?"

After leaving the interrogation room, Bao Bu Tong walked towards Lin Yi.

"Forget it, let's just take a good look at the materials."

Lin Yi suddenly and unexpectedly "compromised"!

Before letting Zhou Chaoxian go, Lin Yi reminded him of something.

"Boss Zhou, let me remind you."

"Don't build the house too high, there may be hidden dangers."

However, these reminders were regarded by Zhou Chaoxian as a "declaration of surrender."

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you would admit defeat one day!"

"If you can't make something, can't others make it?"

Zhou Chaoxian sneered and continued to mock.

Seeing his attitude, Lin Yi could only shake his head slightly.

After Zhou Chaoxian was released, the corners of Lin Yi's mouth rose slightly.

"He'll still destroy your material, why are you so happy?"

Bao Bu Tong was very puzzled when he saw that Lin Yi was not angry but laughing instead.

"He doesn't have much time left."

Lin Yi had seen the building before when he went to arrest Zhou Chaoxian.

Sooner or later, something will go wrong!

Not only was the foundation unstable during the initial construction phase, but even some of the walls and floors had various problems.

"Okay, I'll be more careful from now on."

Lin Yi took a step back to advance and put the matter aside for the time being.

Bao Bu Tong reported the matter to Huangfu Qingling, but even she didn't know what Lin Yi meant.

In the days that followed, Lin Yi continued to build the building steadily, without paying any attention to the progress of the super high-rise building next to him.

Suddenly, one day, there was an earthquake.

When Lin Yi arrived at the construction site, he felt the ground shaking constantly.

Even the water in some buckets was shaking!
