The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future

The two of them had a long time to go out.

"Where are you going tonight?" Lin Ming asked Xiang Ze with a smile.

Xiang Ze pursed his lips: "Brother Lin, tonight is a family dinner."

"Family dinner?" Lin Ming was startled.

Xiang Ze said: "My dad knew you were coming today, so he made time in the evening. He wanted to see you."

"Because of Guanyun Village?" Lin Ming asked.

"Not just this." Xiang Ze didn't say much.

But Lin Ming also knew what he meant.

Because of the note he gave Xiang Ze last time, Xiang Weidong overcame the difficulties, so there was a transfer order from the imperial capital.

In addition, he made so much money with Xiang Ze, and there was also the problem of the land in Guanyun Village.

I think Xiang Weidong's view of me at this moment is no different from that of the old man of the Zhou family and Zhou Mingli.

"Since Uncle Xiang invited you over, then don't worry about us for now."

Chen Jia knew the reason.

So he immediately said: "It's just right, Pingping and Qingyao and I will go shopping first. We don't have any burden if you are not around."

"Sister, what you said is not nice. Am I a burden when I am around you?" Lin Ming said speechlessly.

Chen Jia smiled: "You grown men don't have the patience to go shopping. If you keep following me, I will be anxious."

"What about tomorrow's dinner?" Lin Ming asked.

"Chanel will arrange a car to pick us up, so you don't have to worry." Chen Jia said.

"Well..." Lin Ming looked resentful.

Without Xuanxuan here, he still wanted to spend the night with Chen Jia.

Now it seems that there is probably no such opportunity.

...

The next time.

Xiang Ze first sent the three women to the hotel to check in, and then took Lin Ming to Seaview Garden.

Seaview Garden Community is Xiang Weidong's home.

Under normal circumstances, Xiang Weidong would arrange to receive guests in the official compound.

Seaview Garden has absolute privacy for him.

This shows his attitude towards Lin Ming.

"Brother Lin, don't worry."

Xiang Ze said while driving: "I have arranged people to follow my sister-in-law in secret, and there will be no problem."

Lin Ming smiled: "Tianhai City is your home, Xiang Ze. If Chen Jia really has an accident, then your Xiang family will lose face."

"Hehe, no, absolutely not!" Xiang Ze laughed.

"Uncle Xiang invited me to your house this time, it's not really just to treat me to a meal, right?" Lin Ming asked.

"Brother Lin, you're overthinking this. It's really just a meal."

Xiang Ze shrugged: "For now, my dad's work is going very well. If I really want to chat with you, it's just about Guanyun Village."

Lin Ming's mouth curled up.

As expected!

Tianhai City officials want to develop Guanyun Mountain and build a large-scale comprehensive tourist resort.

Guanyun Village is a very difficult existence for them.

Think about it.

Under such a landmark building, it is really inappropriate to keep a backward village like Guanyun Village.

But there is no way.

The villagers of Guanyun Village disagree!

Money may not be a problem.

But many elderly people have obsessions in their hearts and are full of affection for Guanyun Village. They think this is the place where they have been raised for generations.

No matter how much money is given, they are unwilling to relocate.

Tianhai City officials have always been very troubled by this.

And at this time, Lin Ming suddenly jumped out.

He said that he wanted to take over a land parcel with a radius of 30,000 square meters with Guanyun Village as the center.

It is impossible to say that Lin Ming did not investigate in advance.

But he knew that even the Tianhai City officials could not persuade the Guanyun Village villagers, but he still said firmly that he wanted to take over the land.

This made Xiang Weidong and the entire Tianhai City officials confused.

"Xiang Ze."

Lin Ming suddenly asked: "What do you think about global warming?"

Xiang Ze's face twitched.

How did they suddenly talk about nature while chatting?

Brother Lin is indeed a hermit, always surprising.

"That... um..."

Xiang Ze thought again and again, and finally said: "Brother Lin, with my little knowledge, if you ask me what the future direction of Mercedes-Benz is, maybe I can still talk about it, but if you ask me about global warming..."

"Sorry, I can only say that I am uneducated, and I can only say "Fuck" to the world."

Lin Ming glanced at Xiang Ze.

He added: "Today

It's December 15th, the 25th day of the second month of the lunar calendar. When do you think it will snow? "

"Didn't it already snow before?" Xiang Ze said subconsciously.

Lin Ming then asked: "Then do you think it will rain again this year?"

"No way."

Xiang Ze shook his head: "It's so cold. The weather forecast seems to say that it will drop below zero the day after tomorrow. It's probably impossible to rain, but snow is more likely."

"Oh. "

Lin Ming responded.

Then he leaned back and stopped talking.

Xiang Ze secretly glanced at Lin Ming.

He always felt that Lin Ming seemed to have something to say.

…

4pm.

Seaview Garden Community.

7th floor, 701.

Official people always seem to like living on the 7th floor.

I don't know whether the so-called 'seven up and eight down' is true or false.

Although Xiang Ze had the password of his own house, Lin Ming still knocked on the door politely.

After a while, the quaint and heavy entrance door opened.

A middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties, with a square face, a straight figure, and a handsome face came out.

The top leader of Tianhai City, Xiang Weidong!

Xiang Ze looks a bit like Xiang Weidong, but he didn't follow well, and he probably couldn't be as handsome as Xiang Weidong when he was young.

"Uncle Xiang." Lin Ming called out.

"Mr. Lin. "Xiang Weidong smiled.

The two shook hands.

Lin Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Xiang, Xiang Ze said this is a family dinner, you can just call me 'Xiao Lin'."

"Haha, OK."

Xiang Weidong smiled and nodded.

However, the majesty from his status was always maintained, and even Lin Ming felt a lot of pressure.

"Come in quickly."

Xiang Weidong looked at the things in Lin Ming's hand: "Didn't Xiang Ze say you just got off the plane? Why are you carrying so many things?"

"It's just a little thought, Uncle Xiang, please don't despise it. "Lin Ming said as he walked in.

The house is very big, with north-south ventilation.

It should be about 170 square meters.

The decoration is not luxurious, but very charming.

The walls are covered with calligraphy and paintings, and there are also handwritings below, all of which are works by famous masters of the Chinese Painting Association and Calligraphy Association.

From a businessman's perspective, these calligraphy and paintings alone can sell for a lot of money.

Obviously, these are all given to Xiang Weidong by others.

"Dad, Brother Lin knows that you like to eat fish, so he bought two for you."

Xiang Weidong said with a smile: "Sister-in-law also prepared some cosmetics for my mother. I was talking about it on the way here. It's not easy to take things on a plane. Why make such a fuss?"

"Really?"

Xiang Weidong smiled and glanced at Xiang Ze.

Then he said to Lin Ming: "Xiao Lin and his wife are thoughtful."
