Officialdom: Reborn in the 90s, all I want to do is quit my job and make money.

After Secretary Liu finished her report, she tactfully withdrew and closed the door behind her.

Lin Yu was the only one left in the office.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Lin Yu mentally prepared himself again and again.

That old idiot Liang Wenyuan, he doesn't know anything!

He just saw how well things were going on on the Han River and it even made it into the internal reports, so he got jealous and wanted to come over and try to get some credit for it!

Joint booth?

To put it bluntly, they want to claim half of the credit for the Han River's success as Jiangcheng's!

Old Deng! Old fox! Cunning old fox!

Lin Yu could only console himself with this thought.

After all, in Jiangcheng, under his guidance, several large factories had long since been revived, their products were selling well, and their workers were full of enthusiasm.

At times like this, Liang Wenyuan would definitely want to take Jiangcheng's products to the Canton Fair to make a name for themselves and grow the business.

That makes sense.

It's only human nature!

He absolutely, positively will never discover the "true purpose" of his products!

Correct!

He's just an administrator, not a weapons expert!

He can't tell!

Lin Yu let out a long breath, feeling his heart, which had been hanging in his throat, slowly return to normal.

The plan is still under control.

The problem is not big.

He glanced at the doorway, then reverted to his lazy, aloof demeanor, slumping back into his chair.

...

Days passed by.

The entire city of Hanjiang was immersed in excitement.

The production line at Hongqi Steel Pipe Factory operates 24 hours a day, continuously producing gleaming special steel pipes with "high-efficiency flow guiding threads" engraved inside. These pipes are then loaded onto trucks and transported to freight trains at the railway station.

At the Flying Tractor Factory, the workers were in high spirits, welding thick steel plates onto the tractor's cab and cab, thoughtfully including several pre-installed ventilation openings. They called it: an enhanced, safe, agricultural tractor! Robust! Durable!

Hongxing Gas Cylinder Factory is even more impressive. They strictly follow Consultant Lin's "latest safety standards" and add an "explosion-proof pre-fragmentation layer" to the outer layer of the gas cylinders, claiming that it can effectively reduce the power of an explosion and protect the lives and property of the people.

Throughout the industrial zone along the Han River, machines roared and sparks flew.

In the city, laid-off workers who were previously idle and prone to causing trouble now all have jobs.

Under Li Dakang's strong promotion, the planning for sustainable urban development was fully rolled out.

People are needed everywhere – digging ditches, planting trees, laying pipes…

The workers' wages have increased visibly.

The worry on his face was gone.

Instead, they are replaced by genuine smiles and hopes for the future.

The entire Han River area is thriving.

The mastermind behind all this, Comrade Lin Yu, was slumped in his office, flipping through the production progress reports sent by various factories, a perverted smile on his face like that of an aunt.

it is good!

Very good!

The more you produce, the bigger the crime!

At that time, there will be both witnesses and physical evidence!

What does it mean to have irrefutable evidence?

This is!

He could almost see it: Old Ma on his left, Little Ma on his right, and Little Li in the middle.

Hehehehehe....

...

The day of the Canton Fair's opening has finally arrived.

Hanjiang Railway Station.

The platform was packed with people, and red flags were waving everywhere.

Li Dakang personally led the team, with the entire city government office mobilized, to hold a grand farewell ceremony for the "Han River Team" who were about to head south for their expedition.

Lin Yu stood beside Li Dakang, looking at Qin Fugui and several factory directors from Feiren Factory and Hongxing Factory, each wearing a big red flower on their chest, their faces beaming with excitement and pride at "winning glory for the Han River".

His eyes welled up with tears.

finally...

Finally!

Finally, we've sent these gentlemen away!

You guys need to give it your all!

"Comrades!"

Li Dakang cleared his throat, picked up the tin megaphone, and began a passionate pre-battle mobilization.

"You are the pride of Hanjiang! You are the future of Hanjiang's industry!"

"Your trip south to Guangzhou represents the hopes and expectations of millions of people along the Han River!"

"I hope you can carry forward the fine tradition of Hanjiang workers who are not afraid of hardship or fatigue! Show our spirit and our prowess on the stage of the Canton Fair!"

"Let customers all over the world see just how amazing our Hanjiang products are!"

"good!"

Qin Fugui and the others roared in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.

Li Dakang nodded in satisfaction, then turned his gaze to Lin Yu beside him, his eyes filled with admiration and gratitude.

"Now, let's give a warm round of applause to our specially appointed advisor to Hanjiang City, Comrade Lin Yu, the chief architect of this 'Hanjiang Takeoff' plan, who will say a few words to us!"

Clap clap clap clap!

Thunderous applause erupted instantly.

Qin Fugui and the others looked at Lin Yu with an almost reverent, fanatical gaze.

Lin Yu: "..."

Gan!

That's the fucking way to do it!

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and take a step forward.

He looked at these warriors who were about to bring "weapons" to the world, and at their simple yet fervent faces.

All those words can be summed up in one sentence.

"Comrades...have a safe journey!"

After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply to everyone.

Go on!

Go, everyone!

My big villa! My little Mercedes!

My bright future depends entirely on you!

"Waaah—"

The train whistle sounded, a long, drawn-out wail.

Qin Fugui stepped forward excitedly, grasped Lin Yu's hand tightly, and his eyes filled with tears.

"Advisor Lin! Rest assured! We guarantee to complete the mission! We will not let you and the mayor down!"

Lin Yu grabbed his hand and shook him hard.

The force was so great that Qin Fugui's face turned white.

Please!

Lin Yu's voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly.

Yes, I was excited.

The train slowly started moving.

Qin Fugui and the others stood at the carriage door, waving their hands vigorously.

Lin Yu stood on the platform, waving vigorously.

Two lines of clear tears silently slid down his cheeks.

Goodbye!

Han River!

Goodbye!

This darn classroom smell!

I, Lin Yu, am free!

Standing to the side, Secretary Liu was deeply moved by the sight of Consultant Lin's emotional tears.

What a profound emotion this is!

Advisor Lin has sacrificed so much for the future of the Han River!

high!

That's brilliant!

...

The train disappeared into the distance.

The crowd on the platform gradually dispersed.

Li Dakang breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, patted Lin Yu on the shoulder, and looked very pleased.

"Advisor Kobayashi, we... succeeded!"

"Um."

Lin Yu wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, his mind already soaring to the heavens.

What should we do next?

Should we go to Shekou in Shenzhen first to check out the land prices there, and maybe look for Xiao Ma while we're at it?

Or should we go to Hangzhou and find a young man named Lao Ma to talk to him about the future of e-commerce?

Life is truly full of wonderful expectations!

Just as Lin Yu had begun to plan his magnificent business empire.

Secretary Liu, who was standing next to him, suddenly slapped his forehead.

"Oh, by the way, Mayor, Advisor Lin, the office in Jiangcheng just called again. There's something I forgot to report to you both."

Li Dakang was in high spirits and waved his hand, "Speak!"

Secretary Liu cleared his throat and spoke in a tone filled with utmost respect and excitement.

"Our colleagues in Jiangcheng said that Mayor Liang has given our joint participation in this exhibition the highest level of attention!"

"To ensure that our Hanjiang products make a stunning debut at the Canton Fair, we must be absolutely certain of success..."

"Mayor Liang has used all his connections to specially invite several experts from the Provincial Foreign Trade Department to come south with him!"

"They said...they'll be going to Guangzhou to provide on-site professional technical guidance and performance endorsement for our products!"

boom--!

The smile on Lin Yu's face froze.

He slowly, mechanically, turned his head and looked at Secretary Liu.

The tear stains from just falling haven't dried yet.

"What the heck?"

"What...what did you say?"
