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

Watching Li Dakang and Liang Wenyuan rush out in a hurry, Lin Yu leisurely leaned back in his boss's chair.

It became.

The bait has been cast.

He could imagine how excited the two old men were as they described that "blueprint" to Governor Zhao Dagong.

Strategic Summit?

Nanjiang's reputation?

Attracting billions of dollars in investment?

I don't believe you for a second!

Lin Yu grinned, unable to suppress his laughter.

Hehehehehehe...

That familiar smile, the one that sent blood pressure soaring for all the leaders, was once again brazenly displayed on his face.

just wait.

Just wait!

Wait till I burn all your budgets, leaving not a single penny!

I'll make sure you throw away all that face you care about!

After all your hard work over the decades, you've gone back to square one overnight!

By then, you won't treat me like a precious gem anymore, but rather like a jinx that you'd love to expel from the "world"!

At that time, Lin Yu resigned, took the compensation for mental distress paid by these old men, and with the "trade secrets" of the state-owned enterprise in Nanjiang Province in his pocket, went to the Middle East to find his half-brother in a foreign land!

Hehehe, when the time comes, we'll become a warlord too.

In the morning, I'm dressed in a suit and tie to discuss business; in the afternoon, I'm in shorts and acting as a strategist; and in the evening, I'm at a bonfire party with a cute little black girl. I can't possibly keep up this schedule anytime!

Gee tut.

This is true romance for men!

That's what you call a perfect closed loop!

As for how many years he'll be imprisoned?

What's there to be afraid of! Even prisons in the 1990s had to abide by the Basic Law!

Even if they emerge, they will still be the same Middle East where the reform spring breeze blows across the land.

Besides, I'm just a kid who wants to make money, what bad intentions could I possibly have?

They just don't understand.

At most, it'll be a disciplinary action; they can't really execute him, can they?

Lin Yu felt increasingly ecstatic, almost floating on air.

He has already started planning which department's budget to start burning through first.

……

at the same time.

Tea room at the Nanjiang Provincial Party Committee Guesthouse.

Zhao Dagong was personally making tea for Abdullah.

The aroma of tea mingled with the scent of spices on Abdullah's clothes.

"Governor Zhao, good tea." Abdullah picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and showed no expression on his face.

"I'm glad Your Highness likes it." Zhao Dagong said with a smile.

The secretary walked in quickly and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhao Dagong's smile remained unchanged.

He took a note from his secretary, on which a few lines were scribbled.

When the words "strategic summit," "billions in investment," and "Lin Yu's proposal" came into view, Zhao Dagong's hand holding the teacup remained motionless.

But in his mind, he immediately connected all the dots.

You little bastard!

Zhao Dagong cursed inwardly.

This guy's up to his old tricks again!

Previously at the train station, he cried and begged Run to go south and earn a small goal for him.

Goodness, now that he's met a Middle Eastern tycoon, his dreams have changed way too fast. He's fast-forwarded to the Middle East to become a warlord and experience the romance of men, huh?

Oh shit!

Even the title of deputy director of a provincial government can't hold back your heart that wants to run away!

Zhao Dagong glanced at Abdullah across from him, who was sizing him up.

He was certain that this so-called "strategic summit" was a huge mess deliberately orchestrated by that kid Lin Yu.

The goal is to mess things up, create chaos, and then stage a scene where "I'm the clown," so that I can get out of there naturally!

but……

Zhao Dagong's mind raced.

He had to admit that Lin Yu was a little bastard.

Although it was ill-intentioned, this twisted logic actually makes some sense!

They've already thrown two hundred million US dollars at you, and they're openly trying to poach your employees right in front of you, the provincial governor.

If you don't react on your end and just rely on promotions to suppress people, what kind of skill is that?

Doesn't that tell the whole world that our Nanjiang Province has no other tricks up its sleeve besides using official positions to bind people?

Stingy! Petty! Lacking in vision!

Besides...

Zhao Dagong looked at Abdullah.

This is a customer who's practically delivered to our doorstep! A business opportunity that's practically handed to us!

If we don't squeeze some investment out of him, it would be a disservice to the huge commotion he's made today!

Selling the big brother's products is selling, but selling this bastard's products is still selling, isn't it? It doesn't interfere with anything!

As for that kid Lin Yu...

Want to run?

Ha ha.

Are you trying to mess things up and use the opportunity to run away?

Sure.

I'll give you an even bigger mess, let's see how you clean it up!

Thinking of this, Zhao Dagong put down his teacup.

He looked at Abdullah, and his smile became fervent.

"Your Highness," he began, "my subordinates have just delivered some good news."

"To express our welcome to you and our emphasis on future cooperation, our province has decided to hold an unprecedented 'Namgang-Middle East Future Cooperation Strategic Summit' on the Han River!"

"And the person in charge of this summit is that young man you admire very much."

"Lin Yu".

……

Lin Yu's office in the municipal party committee compound.

When Li Dakang and Liang Wenyuan pushed the door open again, Lin Yu was sitting with his legs crossed, humming a little tune.

Seeing the two of them looking so lost and disoriented, Lin Yu felt incredibly pleased.

Become!

Did the governor scold you?

The plan was rejected, wasn't it?

Let's see if you dare to make up those wild ideas again!

"Ahem," Lin Yu cleared his throat, feigning concern as he asked, "Mayor Li, Mayor Liang, how is it? What did the governor say?"

Li Dakang opened his mouth, his Adam's apple bobbed, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Liang Wenyuan's face was grim, and he looked at Lin Yu with a strange expression.

No one spoke in the office.

Lin Yu felt a sense of satisfaction, but put on a pained expression.

"Sigh, I knew it. My ideas were too radical, too far-fetched..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

"Governor," Li Dakang finally found his voice, which was extremely hoarse, "he...agreed."

"Agree my ass! I knew it... huh?"

Lin Yu's expression froze.

Before the grief on his face could fade, his mind was filled with questions.

Wait a minute.

agreed?

What did you agree to?

"The governor has approved your plan!" Liang Wenyuan shouted at the top of his lungs. "He agreed to hold that strategic summit!"

boom!

Lin Yu's mind went blank for a moment, unable to process anything.

He stared blankly at the two people in front of him, thinking there was something wrong with his ears.

No...no way?

You actually agreed to this?

Has that old fox Zhao Dagong lost his mind?

Such an outrageous and wasteful plan, and he approved it without even blinking?

This unscientific!

My perfect plan has run into a major problem right from the start?

"It's not just about agreeing..." Li Dakang's face was contorted, a mixture of laughter and tears in his expression. "The governor said, if we're going to do it, let's do it big! We need to show the whole world the strength and determination of Nanjiang!"

"The Provincial Department of Finance has allocated 500 million yuan on the spot! As seed money!"

"puff--"

Lin Yu almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Five...five hundred million?!

Damn it! Five hundred million in the 1990s!

This amount of money is too much for anyone to handle! Even if I burned it 24 hours a day, my hands would cramp up!

These old guys are really crazy!

However, this is not the end.

Looking at the completely bewildered Lin Yu, Li Dakang added another sentence.

"The governor also said, to show his absolute trust and support for you..."

"He has decided to appoint you as the sole commander-in-chief of the preparatory committee for this 'Nanjiang-Middle East Future Cooperation Strategy Summit'!"

"Fully responsible for all matters!"

"Also..." Li Dakang paused, looking at Lin Yu with a strange expression.

"Prince Abdullah was overjoyed upon hearing this, and he immediately decided to personally sponsor the summit with another billion US dollars!"
