After taking care of Lan Mei's funeral, everyone returned to Changping without Gao Jian.

Longteng survived the refund turmoil, regained the trust of the bank under the financial guarantee of Longwolf Scenic Area and Tianyu Rental and Dacheng Construction, obtained a new round of loan financing, and began to bid for idle land in the new area on a large scale, raising funds to build commercial housing, taking the lead and taking advantage of the opportunity.

A year later, Qin Ruhai established Haina Real Estate Investment Group Co., Ltd., which incorporated Longteng, Tianyu, Dacheng and Longwolf into its four companies, bundled interests and developed as a group, causing an uproar in the industry, and also received great attention from the municipal party committee and municipal government.

Subsequently, Qin Ruhai was elected vice chairman of the Executive Committee of Changping Federation of Industry and Commerce, and his status and influence are increasing day by day.

Under Qin Ruhai's activities, Wang Ergou and Zhao Da were commuted one after another, released from prison one after another, returned to Changping, and were entrusted with important responsibilities as the general manager of Longteng and Tianyu Company respectively, Biaozi's sentence was the longest, and he had to wait another year to regain his freedom. Gao Jian's sentence was also commuted, from the original two-year suspension of the death penalty to 25 years in prison, but there was basically no hope of getting out of prison.

Dong Lin and Chen Fang both resigned to serve in Haina and were also reused. They were joined by more than a dozen executives of the Wu Group, all of whom worked in Haina.

Qin Ruhai handed over Haina to Xu Qing and Wang Ergou to take care of, spent most of his time and energy on the work of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, participated in discussions and exchanges and business friendship everywhere, and soon climbed to a new position, successfully squeezed into the leadership of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, became the youngest vice chairman, and was appreciated and reused by the main leaders of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government.

After three years, Qin Ruhai entered the Donghua political officialdom as the vice chairman of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, which attracted much attention and sought after, and once became the focus of everyone's heated discussion.

When Qin Ruhai heard this, he would always laugh.

One afternoon, Yuan Zhen invited Qin Ruhai to talk about things.

Qin Ruhai took Biaozi and Zhao Da to the appointment.

"Chairman Qin, I can look forward to you, sit down, waiter ......" Yuan Zhen was courteous.

Qin Ruhai raised his hand to stop him, sat down and said, "Yuan Dong, if you have something to say, you don't need to be polite." ”

Yuan Zhen was over seventy years old, with gray hair, but he bent down in front of Qin Ruhai to flatter, "Chairman Qin, you have made me express my heart to some extent! The dishes are ordered, you see ......"

Qin Ruhai said with a straight face: "If you have something to say, I still have something to do, I don't have time to eat and drink here, hurry up, I'm in a hurry!"

Yuan Zhen hesitated, walked closer, hunched his waist, and said hesitantly: "Chairman Qin, I have been doing a good job in the Federation of Industry and Commerce for nearly ten years, why did you suddenly ask to withdraw from the association early? I would like to ask you to take more care of this matter!"

Qin Ruhai said helplessly: "Yuan Dong, I have also heard of this, but you should always know that age is a hard indicator, you are seventy-six, people are persuaded to retire, and they also do things according to the regulations, although I am in charge of this part, but there are obvious policies and regulations on it, I was forced to leave my post more than ten years younger than you, this matter is watched by many people, you let me know my mistakes and make mistakes, doesn't this push me into the fire pit? Besides, you are all a lot old, and several grandchildren are about to graduate from college, you should go back to live in your old age, what do you want to do with other young people?" ”

Yuan Zhen blushed and said: "Chairman Qin, I know that this matter is difficult for you to do, although there is an age limit, but there is an exception gap in everything, please help, let me work for a few more years, and wait for someone to quit without persuasion!"

Qin Ruhai got up and said, "I can't be the master of this matter, or you go and find someone else, no matter how much you talk about it on my side, it won't work." After speaking, he left with Biaozi and Zhao Da.

Yuan Zhen sent them to the car and left, returned to the room and thought about it for a while, and in a fit of anger, he knocked the rotating glass on the round table to the ground and was shattered.

Biao Zi was fascinated, and said to Qin Ruhai in the car: "Ruhai, you tossed that old boy enough just now, and you have to pretend to be a slave at such an age, it's really hard enough for him!"

Qin Ruhai smiled and said: "I do so much, just for such a day, he makes me unhappy, I will also make him unhappy, the competition between me and him has just begun." In the past, he was forced to stay by virtue of his wealth and underworld background, but this time it fell into my hands, not only did he withdraw from the club, but also kicked out the vision. ”

Zhao Da was a little worried, and asked, "Big brother, what do you say he will do next, will he find other leaders to pressure you?"

"Hehe, he has a backer and would rather die than come to me, where he can seek personal interests for the future as an official and a half-position, and now he wants to step down, it is more uncomfortable than cutting meat, I want to put him to death step by step. Next, you have to be vigilant, I don't think he will rest on his laurels. Qin Ruhai said coldly.

A few days later, Yuan Zhen went to the office to find Qin Ruhai again, and it was still the same thing.

Qin Ruhai brought out a lot of rules and regulations, and skillfully rejected Yuan Zhen's unreasonable request.

Subsequently, Yuan Zhen was removed from the post of vice chairman of the Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce. At the same time, Qin Ruhai received many anonymous threatening phone calls and letters, and formed a grudge with Yuan Zhen.

On the one hand, Qin Ruhai continued to expand his strength, forming an alliance of interests with many companies on the side of Changping and Donghua, and on the other hand, suppressing many companies under Envision, and weakening Yuan Zhen's strength step by step through positive investigation and private division.

A year later, Envision was acquired by Haina Real Estate and merged into Longteng, Yuan Zhen fled with the money, and Qin Ruhai won the final victory. Subsequently, Haina established its headquarters in Donghua, acquired and merged many small and medium-sized enterprises, and became a "giant" group in the province's cross-industry field, with nearly 100 large and small companies, which were soon reorganized and listed.

Qin Ruhai stepped down as vice chairman of the Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and became chairman of the board of directors of Haina Group, but handed over the specific affairs to Zhong Ling, Dong Lin and others to take care of, and settled in Donghua. Wang Ergou, Zhao Da, Li Wen, Li Wu, Li Quan, Li Zhi, Liu Ping, and Jing Yunduo also moved to Donghua one after another, settling down their families and eliminating worries.

Xu Qing and Zhang Yaxin took care of Yang Cuihua at home, lived with Qin Ruhai, and lived a peaceful life.

Qin Ruhai tried his best to thank the unimportant socializing and socializing, and left time for his family.

Now, Zhong Ling and Zhong Qi's marriage, as well as Xu Nianru and Qin Ruyi's studies, have become a major event in the family, and they are always mentioned in casual conversations.

Zhong Ling was busy with company affairs, either in meetings or on business trips, and had no time to take care of his own affairs. Zhong Qi talked to a few people, but broke up for many reasons. Xu Nianru is studying in graduate school in other places and has already had a boyfriend. Qin Ruyi transferred to the city No. 3 Middle School to study in the second year of junior high school.

Qin Ruhai talked to Zhong Ling a few times, and asked her to put aside the company's affairs first, go outside, get to know more and make friends, and quickly solve her marriage.

But Zhong Ling will always shirk it, saying that the company's affairs are busy, and that he doesn't have that kind of thought, so he will slow down first.

Qin Ruhai was not at ease, and forcibly gave her a one-month vacation, let her go on a trip to relax, and watched her and Biaozi leave by plane.

The January holiday is not over yet, and Zhong Ling returned early.

Qin Ruhai and the others saw that she had found nothing, and came back empty-handed, and they were even more anxious and worried.

Under Qin Ruhai's introduction, arranging for Lu Feng to meet Zhong Ling gave Zhong Ling a lot of pressure and burden.

In fact, Zhong Ling has a dead knot in his heart, he is reluctant to give up his love for Qin Ruhai, he has admired him since he was a child, and then it became more and more serious, knowing that it was impossible, but he couldn't accept others, so he simply put all his mind on study and work, and envied Xu Qing and Zhang Yaxin for being able to accompany him, but he didn't dare to approach, and he had already blocked himself.

The result was obvious, and Zhong Ling quickly rejected Lu Feng's pursuit. Qin Ruhai is very optimistic about Lu Feng, as the second son of the chairman of the Dragon Wolf Scenic Area, he has the same ability and conduct, and Zhong Ling is a golden boy and jade girl, so he has great hopes for this matter.

After Qin Ruhai learned about it, he talked to Zhong Ling again.

"Ling'er, Lu Feng is Uncle Lu's second son, his ability and conduct are good, he will inherit his father's business in the future, I introduced you to each other, I have thought it through, how can you ......?"

Zhong Ling didn't say a word, but he didn't dare to say anything in his heart.

"Ling'er, what are you thinking, what concerns and thoughts can you say, so if you repeatedly evade shirking, how can I explain to our mother?"

"Brother, I don't want to leave you, please don't push me anymore. The more you do this, the more I have no idea in my heart, so let it be!"

"Ling'er, our mother's health is not as good as day by day, and now my biggest wish is the marriage between you and Zhong Qi, you are thirty-two, and Zhong Qi is also over thirty, which is not small, are you willing to let our mother die without regret and leave?"

"Brother, don't force me, I'm going crazy again, do you know, how much I envy Sister Yaxin, you don't understand my thoughts, you don't understand...... I ......"

Zhong Ling said this and returned to his room with tears in his eyes.

Qin Ruhai was thinking about what she said just now, and suddenly understood, she was angry and anxious, and went to Xu Qing's room with hesitation.

"Qing'er, it's terrible, what can I do about this? Ling'er...... Alas...... What can I do about this?!" Qin Ruhai's heart was confused, and he couldn't think of how to speak for a while, and his heart jumped to his throat.

Xu Qing thought that Zhong Ling had caused some trouble or encountered some accident, so she hurriedly asked: "Ruhai, what's going on, don't worry, tell me slowly." ”

After a while, Qin Ruhai said: "Zhong Ling, she rejected Lu Feng's pursuit, I just talked to her, she said that she was reluctant to leave me, and she envied Yaxin, alas, I have always treated her as a sister, but she ......"

Hearing this, Xu Qing was also very ashamed and anxious, and asked again: "Ruhai, does anyone still know about this? Where is Zhong Ling now, and how did you enlighten her?"

Qin Ruhai said with a gloomy face: "After she said this, she hid in the room, I just came to you to think of a way, she drilled the tip of the horns, she must be corrected, in case it is spread, how should this matter be done?"

Xu Qing heard the movement outside the door, hurriedly sighed, and slowly got up to open the door.
