At the Pinnacle of Power: My Insider Report Alarms Bigwigs in Beijing's Elite Circle

The following afternoon, Lin Yi accompanied Xiao Yuan to Qinghe County for a visit and inspection.

After the inspection, Xiao Yuan was invited to a dinner prepared by the Qinghe County Party Committee, while Lin Yi went home alone.

Lin Yi's home is in a railway residential area in Qinghe County. It was a welfare house allocated to his father, Lin Zhengguang, in 1997. It has two bedrooms and one living room, and is more than 60 square meters. It cost more than 20,000 yuan at the time.

When Lin Yi returned home, his aunt Lin Zhengying and uncle Lin Zhengjun were both there.

The eldest brother is like a father.

Lin Yi's grandparents have both passed away. His father, Lin Zhengguang, has always taken good care of Lin Yi's aunt and uncle, and the three siblings have a very good relationship.

On important holidays, Lin Zhengguang would invite his younger siblings to his home for a gathering.

Lin Yi's aunt, Lin Zhengying, works as an accountant at a farm in the county, while his uncle, Lin Zhengjun, grows and sells vegetables in the countryside. Both of them live very hard lives.

"Xiaoyi is back!"

"Brother Lin Yi."

When Lin Yi entered the house, his aunt and uncle's families, along with their children, greeted him.

Lin Zhengguang and Fang Lan, a married couple, also came out of the kitchen with smiles on their faces.

"Hello, aunt, uncle, sister, and younger brother/sister."

Lin Yi greeted his aunt and uncle's families with a smile.

When Aunt Lin Zhengying saw Lin Yi, she immediately thought of Fang Li's rumors and said angrily, "Sister-in-law, you should call Fang Li over today and make him apologize to Xiao Yi!"

“I invited him to my house for dinner, and he said he was going to have dinner with the deputy county head that evening, and we’ll see how things go after dinner.”

Fang Lan looked dejected.

Because she overheard her son talking about work on the phone, she took it upon herself to invite her younger brother, Fang Li, over for dinner tonight so they could discuss things over the table. However, to her surprise, Fang Li didn't even want to come.

She remembered that after Lin Yi started working in the municipal government office, especially after he became Xiao Yuan's secretary, Fang Li would come to her house several times a week, each time bringing a lot of things. She was incredibly enthusiastic.

After Lin Yiyi firmly refused Fang Li's request for help, Fang Li visited less often, only coming over once a year during holidays as a token gesture.

This stands in stark contrast to the close sibling relationship between Lin Zhengguang and his two siblings.

After saying hello, Lin Yi returned to his room.

To be precise, it was his and his sister Lin Qian's room.

The room was only a dozen square meters, with a bunk bed, a desk, and a small wardrobe, making it feel very cramped.

There are two posters on the wall of the room: one of Ronaldo, the first love of football fans born in the 1980s, and the other of Li Yang, the founder of Crazy English.

Lin Yi liked playing soccer when he was in school, while Lin Qian liked English.

Lin Qian is currently a sophomore at the Donghai Foreign Languages ​​Institute, and her dream is to become a diplomat after graduation.

In her previous life, Lin Qian felt resentful about what happened to Lin Yi after his accident. She felt that the system was too dark, so she gave up her dreams and went to work as a translator in a private company, but she didn't have a good life there either.

"Xiaoqian, in my past life, I couldn't help my family or you. I even became a negative example, causing you to give up your dreams. In this life, I will do everything in my power to help you realize your dream and become a diplomat!"

The image of his younger sister flashed through his mind, and Lin Yi quietly clenched his fists.

"Besides helping my sister realize her dream, I need to earn some money as soon as possible to make my family wealthy!"

Lin Yi looked at the small, cramped bedroom and thought to himself.

Although he currently only has 50,000 in savings.

However, the European Championship, co-hosted by Switzerland and Austria, kicked off yesterday.

He vividly remembers the results of some of the matches.

With this 50,000 yuan, you could easily earn hundreds of times the return by buying football score parlays.

Then, he can use the money he earns from betting on the European Cup to invest in the stock market.

Although 2008 was a bear market, it wasn't a problem for Lin Yi—even in a bear market, there are winning stocks!

Besides, the stock market is poised for a major rebound in 2009!

Double your money, compound interest.

With these four words combined, the stock market will become Lin Yi's personal ATM!

As for the twelve-year real estate bull market that followed 2009, it held no appeal for Lin Yi—it was too slow!

For him, money is just a number; he has no worries about it at all!

"Compared to making money, it is much more difficult for me to achieve something in my political career."

"Although Xiao Yuan is grateful that I saved him, he has taken me in as his sworn brother and will take care of me. I can even enter his circle, get to know many powerful people, and make many connections, but these are ultimately external forces. You have to be strong yourself to succeed. If I want to go far in my career, I still have to rely on myself!"

Lin Yi then thought about his work, his mind becoming very clear.

Although he possessed memories of his past life and the power of a prophet, and could leverage Xiao Yuan's influence, he was well aware that he lacked experience and practical combat skills in his previous life.

The officialdom is like a battlefield.

Wealth, beauty, interpersonal relationships, and power struggles are like a minefield; one wrong step and you're doomed!

Xiao Yuan from the previous life is the best example—even with his powerful background, he still capsized in a ditch!

At this moment, Xiao Yuan is in the largest private room of the Qinghe Hotel, receiving a banquet from the Qinghe County Party Committee.

All members of the Qinghe County leadership team who were at home, including the county party secretary and the county head, were present.

Meanwhile, in another private room...

Fang Li, the vice president of Qinghe County Hospital, hosted a banquet for Liu Dahai, the vice county head in charge of medical and health care, with Jin Hui, the director of the county health bureau, in attendance.

In addition, there were two pharmaceutical representatives, both young married women who were above average in looks but knew how to dress well and had an open personality. When toasting, they practically wanted to sit on Liu Dahai's lap, which made Liu Dahai very happy.

After the meal, Liu Dahai and Jin Hui had their fill of tofu, while the two hospital representatives had their appetites piqued. Fang Li, the organizer, had achieved his goal, and everyone was happy.

At 8:30, the dinner ended. Fang Li saw Liu Dahai and Jin Hui off and then returned to his car.

"Dad, how did it go? Did Liu Dahai agree to promote you to the position of county hospital director?"

Fang Li's son, Fang Zhenhai, sat in the driver's seat and asked impatiently.

Fang Li smiled smugly: "He almost put his hand inside those two little sluts' skirts right in front of me, what do you think?"

Congratulations, Dad!

Fang Zhenhai was overjoyed, then suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Dad, I saw Mayor Xiao having dinner inside, with the Party Secretary and the County Head accompanying him. However, I didn't see Lin Yi. It seems you were right, Lin Yi was disciplined and is no longer Mayor Xiao's secretary, otherwise he wouldn't be absent!"

"How could I be lying?"

Fang Li held his head high, looking very proud and confident.

"That's right, whatever my dad says goes!"

Fang Zhenhai offered a flattering remark, then suggested, "Dad, now that you're going to be the dean, shall we go visit Lin Yi's family?"

"Then let's go for a spin."

Fang Li nodded slightly.

He knew that his son was still resentful about Lin Yi's refusal to help him and wanted to go to Lin Yi's house to show off and humiliate him!

Isn't he the same?

at the same time.

In the largest private room of Qinghe Hotel.

The banquet was drawing to a close.

"Mayor, it's still early. How would you like to arrange the next event?"

Zhou Hongjian, the Party Secretary of Qinghe County, asked for instructions.

Xiao Yuan wiped his hands with a wet wipe and said, "My uncle was hospitalized a couple of days ago, and I didn't have a chance to visit him before he was discharged. Today, I came to Qinghe, so I thought I'd go visit him at home."

"Mayor, is your uncle in Qinghe?"

County Party Secretary Zhou Hongjian was somewhat surprised.

Everyone else looked shocked!

They had no idea about this!

Xiao Yuan said calmly, "My uncle is Lin Yi's father."

"Lin Ke's father is sick and hospitalized. We didn't know about it and didn't visit him. Mayor, we haven't done a good job. We hope you can give us a chance to make amends and let us accompany you on this trip!"

County Party Secretary Zhou Hongjian immediately made a self-criticism.

Although he didn't know why Xiao Yuan mistook Lin Yi's father for his uncle, it didn't matter.

Importantly, this information was crucial for him and Qinghe County—after Xiao Yuan left Qinghe, they had to take good care of Lin Yi's family!

"it is good."

Xiao Yuan did not refuse.

He came to Qinghe County specifically to support Lin Yi!
