The Ambitions to Conquer the Official Career-Chapter 483: Everyone Seems Very Calm

"Are you being transferred?" While still on the road, Xiao Li’s call came through, having already heard the news.

"It seems the news spread quickly!"

"Yes, it’s all over Xincheng now."

"Right, I’ll be going to the provincial investment promotion bureau as a deputy director, probably ranked towards the bottom."

"That might be good, fewer people targeting you. Actually, I’m quite happy with this arrangement. After all, your age is a disadvantage. Where are there people in their twenties who become deputy heads? If you really were made a deputy head, I guess there would be uproar online."

Ji Yang had never really thought about this, but now that he seriously considered it, it was indeed the case. Without someone to shield him, he’d face too much skepticism.

Xiao Li then said, "I think this matter involves people in the province wanting to put you in your place, but there are also those on your side who want you to lay low for a while."

"I understand."

If Ji Yang had harbored any dissatisfaction before, he now knew more of the inside story and realized they weren’t trying to completely take him down. Instead, they were consciously letting him avoid some storms.

"I’m still a bit worried about you." Ji Yang thought of Xiao Li, who had moved to Xincheng because of him, and worried if his departure would adversely affect them.

"Don’t worry. Our industry is among the top in national technology, expanding rapidly. The government supports us, too. Many people are watching. Otherwise, the Xiao family would have already taken action."

Ji Yang replied, "I don’t fully understand the big family affairs, just as long as you’re okay."

"The construction here is progressing quickly, many people are utilizing their resources to help development. As long as the roads are through, the distance from here to the province is very short. I’ve long since secured a piece of land from the province and collaborated with Huifang to develop a real estate project, which is almost completed now."

"How come I didn’t know about this?"

Xiao Li laughed and said, "Compared to the projects we are currently working on, that real estate project is quite small, just a few billion in a small project. The whole residential area is built with villas and isn’t for external sale. We’ve absorbed it ourselves, and you can stay there when it’s time."

"That’s not very good; living in such a place isn’t suitable for my status."

"It’s not about moving your home there. You’d just come to stay."

Ji Yang realized then, each of these women had a villa there, and regardless of whose house he chose to stay in, it would be possible. Naturally, the owner wouldn’t be himself.

Ji Yang didn’t know how they had managed it, but it was clear that once he was in the province, housing wouldn’t be an issue.

"You shouldn’t worry about those women either. Their overall situation is good, whether in real estate development or other project expansions, all is quite commendable. Even if someone tried to take something, they wouldn’t suffer a loss."

Hearing what Xiao Li had said, Ji Yang felt much more at ease, as long as those women weren’t too negatively impacted.

"What about the Tongtian Grand Canyon?"

"That has been even less affected. I got that land from Huangfu Kun. The whole development hasn’t much to do with you. Even if something comes up, it won’t affect you. You just wait to collect the money."

After ending the call, Ji Yang looked at his secretary and driver, thinking that he should take them with him to the province. After all, during the conversation, he mentioned he could arrange for a few people at the Investment Promotion Bureau.
