Lin Xiao naturally did not realize the details and only felt that Zhang Qing was being too impulsive. "Ke Boss, if you let him go first, and if there really is a problem with the house quality, I, being new here, cannot pay the money." As Lin Xiao watched Ke Boss release Zhang Qing, her tone softened.
"Let’s invite a structural expert from the city to assess the house. If the quality is fine, we can discuss the next payment plan. If there are issues that can be remedied, you will bear the repair costs. If it cannot be repaired and is deemed a dangerous building, Ke Boss, we will have to resort to legal procedures."
Lin Town Head took two steps back in fear. Initially, he had intended to fool her, not expecting her thoughts to be so organized. In just a few words from Zhang Qing, Lin Town Head had already formulated such a plan.
"The quality of relocation housing is a matter of public concern. Your money is hard-earned; rest assured, we will give you a satisfactory answer."
"Lin Town Head, I’ve waited years for this money; it’s more than enough pain already. Once the assessment results come out, I hope you can give me a clear answer."
"It’s settled then." Lin Xiao proactively extended her hand to shake hands with Ke Boss as a farewell.
Ke Boss hesitated for a moment. Zhang Qing complained softly, "Lin Town Head, you don’t know how expensive living is unless you manage a household. If we pay Ke Chenghui's money now, we’ll all be left with nothing."
"Zhang Town Head, some problems must be resolved."
Yesterday, Lin Xiao reviewed the complaint cases from Gengxu Town; residents of Cui Ping Nan Yuan had complained about tilted houses and cracks in significant numbers.
Zhang Qing wanted to say more but noticed another boss approaching.
"Lin Town Head, hello! It’s an honor to meet you." Yang Feng’s triangular eyes glinted mischievously.
Yang Feng's cousin Wang Hao was the head of the Transportation Department at the county level. He was involved in road construction in Township and would often follow his boss during festivals to collect money. Ke Hongxin had already promised him that this time they would settle the final payment.
Every time he came on a mission, he would stir up trouble at first and then drag others away when it was time to leave.
"Zhang Town Head," Yang Feng said as he casually offered Zhang Qing a cigarette.
"Yang Boss, please tell us about your situation." Lin Xiao found Yang Feng's type of person quite distasteful but did not show it on her face.
After listening to Yang Feng's situation, she asked, "Zhang Town Head, has Taihu Road been inspected?"
"We generally don’t organize inspections for town-level roads," Lin Town Head replied.
Yang Feng interjected before Zhang Qing could respond. "The standards for town-level roads are relatively low; we haven’t organized inspections."
Zhang Qing did not expect Lin Xiao to ask this question.
"We are all small projects and cannot compare with Ke Boss's wealth; I truly cannot afford it," Lin Town Head said. Last week Ke Shuji promised to settle our payments this time. Yang Feng clearly did not take Zhang Qing and Lin Xiao seriously and directly brought up Ke Hongxin's name.
"Boss Yang, I'll set aside this payment for you. After the holiday, once the road inspection is completed, I'll release the funds. The audits at all levels are strict now, and without completion and acceptance, it will be hard for us to explain in the future."
Yang Feng didn't expect that bringing up Ke Hongxin would be of no use. He wanted to argue a bit more but couldn't find the right words, simmering with frustration.
"Town Head Lin, please continue with your work." Yang Feng forced a smile. As Zhang Qing stepped out to call in the next person, he quickly slipped a card under Lin Xiao's notebook and hurriedly made his exit.
"Boss Yang, you forgot your things."
Yang Feng turned back, ready to deny it with a smile, but when he saw Lin Xiao's stern expression, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Lin Xiao tossed the card back at him. "Boss Yang, take care of yourself."
Yang Feng left in embarrassment.
When Niu Dazhuang entered and saw Yang Feng's grim face, he felt a wave of unease wash over him. He hadn't expected this young town head to be so formidable.
With such backing, Yang Feng still couldn't manage things; his chances were even slimmer now.
Unexpectedly, after some discussion between Lin Xiao and Zhang Qing, they decided to fully release the thirty thousand yuan for river maintenance funds that had not been allocated for two years to Niu Dazhuang.
Niu Dazhuang nearly fell to his knees in gratitude.
Seeing Niu Dazhuang receive the funds, the other bosses suddenly felt hopeful as if they had received it themselves. Unfortunately, while some of them managed to get a share, others left empty-handed.
Ke Hongxin was unaware that during his absence, Lin Xiao had distributed most of the money from their accounts.
Lin Xiao knew that Ke Hongxin would undoubtedly be angry. However, she realized that in this battle, she had won in the long run.
