Chapter 89: Hitting the Mark of a Noble Person

  After Han Yi and Duan Yitong left, Cheng Zihan immediately summoned the managers of several departments to hold a meeting, including the principals of various parks in the plantation.

  "This time I've found you all, is to discuss something with you. You also know that in another week, the 300,000 hectares of land in Wang City will be publicly auctioned off. The funds we have on hand are far from enough to compete with the four major families of Beijing and other families, so I'm considering mortgaging the plantation to take out a loan. What do you all think?"

  Cheng Hai furrowed his brow upon hearing this and was the first to speak up, "I disagree. The amount borrowed from the bank is too large, it's not good for our company. It will easily give the country an opportunity to acquire our company. Now that we've just started out, our foundation is thin. If something unexpected happens, the consequences are unthinkable."

  Cheng Zihan looked at Cheng Hai with some surprise, this was not something that Cheng Hai would normally say.

  "Zi Han, I'm being serious here, I don't agree with you mortgaging the plantation for a loan. Qin Ke Xiu had thought of this possibility before he left and told me about it, so we absolutely cannot let you do this. If we borrow too much money and can't pay it back to the bank on time, or if something unexpected happens along the way, then we won't even have the chance to regret it. This is a very dangerous thing, once it goes wrong, the entire plantation might go down with it. We didn't get where we are today easily, so we can't be careless and take risks. As for this land, if we really can't invest in it, then we'll just have to give up on it. Qin Ke Xiu's idea is that if we can't acquire all the land in Wang Cheng, then we should go buy land elsewhere. Recently, the land around Fang Cheng has also been put up for sale, and he's already spent money to buy a 100,000 mu piece of land. There will be another land auction at the end of November, and there should be about 100,000 hectares of land available then. Although Fang Cheng can't compare to Wang Cheng, its development prospects are still pretty good."

  Cheng Zihan nodded, if it was arranged by Qin Kexiu, then there's nothing unusual about it.

  Qin Kexiu really did have a deep plan, and even thought of mortgaging the plantation.

  But the mortgage of the plantation was brought up by Duan Yitong today, and Qin Kexiu is so powerful, can't he have the ability to predict the future?

  However, Qin Ke's concerns are not unreasonable. Her plantation is developing too fast now, and it's estimated that it has already attracted the attention of others. At this time, she should be low-key. If she really buys a large amount of land in Wangcheng, she may provoke those hidden enemies to take action prematurely and strangle her in the cradle.

  It seems that after this incident, she really needs to keep a low profile from now on.

  People fear fame like pigs fear getting fat, now that she's famous, who knows how many people want her dead or want to swallow the wealth in her hands.

  After understanding, Cheng Zihan nodded and also let out a sigh of relief. "Dad, since you've said so, I'll listen to you. I won't mortgage the plantation anymore. Whether we can buy this land or not is up to fate now. If it's not meant to be mine, then I won't force it. I can only give up."

  Cheng Hai suddenly let out a long sigh and looked at Cheng Zihan with relief, "Alright."

  "Now let's have everyone report on the recent situation in each park, one by one." Cheng Zihan put aside his worries and began to care about the situation of the planting garden and breeding grounds.

  Cheng Hai and others reported on the current situation one by one. Everything was fine, and Cheng Zihan's smile also gradually expanded.

  When the meeting was over, Cheng Zihan kept Cheng Hai behind, while others went back to work on their own.

  Cheng Hai sat across from Cheng Zihan, who was propping up her chin with one hand and staring at him.

  Cheng Hai got married relatively late, and is almost 40 this year. Due to years of hard work, he looks older than his actual age.

  Cheng Zihan looked at him, since Cheng Shihao's accident, Cheng Hai had brought Lai Ying back home. However, Li Lan still had some reservations about Lai Ying in her heart, so the two women didn't get along well. Sandwiched between the two women every day, Cheng Hai was truly exhausted physically and mentally. But Lai Ying was his mother after all, he couldn't bear to leave her alone at home, thinking of him and crying every day, so he could only silently endure it.

  Cheng Zihan had always wanted to talk to him about this matter, but never had the chance. Today, he happened to be free, so they talked about it conveniently.

  Li Lan has now moved out of the house and is living with Cheng Zixi, which is not what Cheng Zihan wants to see.

  "Dad, aren't you going to tell me about the current situation at home?" Looking at Cheng Hai's expression, Cheng Zihan couldn't help but sigh.

  Cheng Hai smiled wryly, "You know without me saying it, I've messed things up. Now your mom has moved out and your grandma stays at home every day staring blankly at the four walls, her body getting weaker by the day. I'm also at a loss now, the conflict between your mom and grandma is too deep, even if I want to help mediate, it's impossible."

  "What does Grandma like to do most? As long as one has a job and something to focus on, they won't think about so many things every day. That's easy to handle. As for the conflict between Mom and Grandma, I have some good news to tell you." Cheng Zihan said this and paused, looking up at Cheng Hai.

  Cheng Hai looked at Cheng Zihan with some curiosity, "What good news?"

  "I've already found my brother, and once he finishes this semester, I'll bring him back. Once he's back, the conflict between Mom and Grandma will naturally be resolved." Cheng Zihan told Cheng Hai directly without hiding anything since he saw how anxious he was.

  Cheng Hai was overjoyed when he heard this. This son would forever be a thorn in Li Lan's heart, and as long as her son didn't return, she would never be able to put down the hatred between her and Lai Ying.

  This news is indeed good news.

  Seeing Cheng Hai's excited look, Cheng Zihan also revealed a smile.

  So-called elder brother, don't know what kind of person he is.

  "Dad, you can arrange grandma's work now. She has been busy for most of her life and can't stop, but don't let her get too tired, after all, she is old." Cheng Zihan looked at the time and said to Cheng Hai with a smile.

  Cheng Hai nodded and went back to make arrangements with a smile that couldn't be concealed.

  Cheng Hai had just left when Duan Yitong arrived again.

  Seeing Tong coming over so frequently, Cheng Zihan was somewhat perplexed.

  Duan Yitong looked at Cheng Zihan and smiled, then said: "Zihan, my grandfather wants to say that he wants to cooperate with you, together to buy down that piece of land. Our side's money is not much, but the 1.8 billion can still be taken out. Later, we will divide the land according to the proportion of investment funds. He asked me to ask your opinion, if you have no opinion, then tomorrow go meet with him and discuss this matter properly."

  Cheng Zihan was taken aback, and it seemed that Duan Hengshan wanted to cooperate with her. This looked like a pretty good deal, after all, relying on herself alone, it would be difficult to swallow this piece of land. However, even if Duan Hengshan could really come up with 1 billion, it was not certain that he could buy this land.

  "Think about it, Cheng Zihan shook her head and refused. 'Yi Tong, I've already given up on this piece of land,' she said. 'The competitors are too strong this time, and even if we join forces, I'm afraid we still won't be able to buy it. So after careful consideration, I've decided to give up.'"

  "Why?" Duan Yutong was puzzled.

  "Firstly, I don't have enough funds in hand. Even if I had the money, how could I possibly compare with those big families? Their background is not something I can match."

  "Secondly, I'm now too high-profile and have already made myself a target for both sides. If this time, because of this land, I really offend those people, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future. No matter what, my business here has just started and is not stable yet. They have people on both sides, black and white. If I want to go head-to-head with them, it's not worth it. So after considering these factors, I'm no longer so fixated on this land." Cheng Zihan listed out the factors she had considered, then looked at Duan Yitong with a helpless gesture.

  She really wants this piece of land, but the problem is that current conditions do not allow it, and she is also unwilling to take risks. After all, she is no longer alone now, there are too many people behind her who need to rely on her. If something goes wrong, the consequences are not something she can afford.

  Taking all these factors into account and with other people's persuasion, she has basically given up.

  "Knock knock." Just as Cheng Zihan finished speaking, Duan Yitong didn't even have time to open his mouth when the knocking sound started again.

  Cheng Zihan smiled awkwardly and said, "Come in."

  Li Yuan walked in, took a glance at Cheng Zihuan, then looked at Duan Yitong before saying: "Zihuan, the young masters from the Han family have arrived."

  "Who?" Cheng Zihan was indeed unfamiliar with this title.

  "Korean Yi and Korean Chen." Li Yuan reported the names.

  "Really? Let them in quickly." Unexpectedly, Han Jincheng actually came at this time, it seems that he is indeed his own destined noble person.

  "Good." Li Yuan retreated and went out.

  Soon after, Han Yi and Han Jingchen walked in. Han Jingchen still had a cold expression on his face, as if someone owed him millions of dollars that hadn't been repaid yet.

  He walked in and gave Duan Yitong a cold glance, furrowed his brow, then turned to look at Han Yi.

  Han Yi's face was equally cold and detached, it was unclear what kind of eye contact exchange had occurred with Han Jingchen, the two stood at the door for a while before walking in.

  Two people came together, Duan Yitong seemed to be somewhat restless, especially the strong aura emitted by Han Jincheng's body, which made her feel uncomfortable all over.

  Han Jingchen lazily sat down next to Duan Yitong, and Han Yi sat down beside him.

  Cheng Zihan saw that the two were in a good mood, so she first poured each of them a cup of tea before asking: "Uncle Han, Hanyi, how did you two end up coming together?"

  Han Jingchen glanced at Cheng Zihan and then at Duan Yitong before speaking in a not-too-friendly tone, "Can I ask this little sister to step out for a moment? I have something I want to talk to you about."

  As soon as Han Jingchen said this, Duan Yitong only felt his heart beating rapidly, and he was inexplicably flustered in his heart.

  Cheng Zihan seemed a bit embarrassed and struggled for a moment: "Uncle Han, this is my good friend, whatever you want to say can be said in front of her."

  Cheng Zihan didn't want to be on guard against Duan Yitong like this, after all, Duan Yitong was the person she trusted most.

  Han Jingchen's face was cold and he didn't say a word.

  Han Yi looked at this and that, before slowly saying: "Zi Han, please ask your friend to leave first, Uncle has something very important."

  Cheng Zihan hesitated and glanced at Duan Yitong.

  Duan Yitong was open-minded and quickly stood up with a smile, smiling at Cheng Zihang: "It's okay, Zihang, since you're busy, I'll just head back for now. When I have time another day, I'll come again."

  "I'm sorry, Yitong. Uncle Han is not a bad person and doesn't have any ill intentions. He's just that kind of person, distant to everyone, even strangers." Cheng Zihan couldn't help but explain quietly as she saw Yitong off.

  She really didn't want Duan Yitong to misunderstand her, nor did she want Han Jincheng and Duan Yitong to have any misunderstandings between them.

  Duan Yitong nodded understandingly and said, "It's okay, you can go back. I'll leave by myself."

  "Well then, be careful, come find me when you have time." Cheng Zihan hugged Duan Yitong before sending her out the door.

  Come back and sit down, still can't help but complain, "Uncle Han, you really are, with Tong being one of our own, what's the matter that can't be said in front of her?"

  Han Jingchen glanced at her lightly and said coldly, "She is one of your own people, but to me, she is an outsider. You trust her, but I don't."

  Cheng Zihan was taken aback and looked at Han Jingchen in confusion. Although Han Jingchen was a cold person, he would never intentionally target others like this.

  It's as if he came to the plantation, and for most people in the plantation, it was also very cold, but never said anything too excessive.

  His attitude towards Duan Yitong today is not just a cold attitude towards strangers, but a very obvious rejection.

  "Uncle Han, why are you treating her like this? She's a very important friend to me, more important than my own life." Cheng Zihan said seriously, looking at Han Jingchen.

  Han Jing's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he glanced at Cheng Ziheng before his expression remained resolute. "I don't care how important she is to you; I only know that you are very important to me. Anyone who has designs on you, I will eliminate them at all costs. Including the person just now."

  Han Jingchen's words shocked Cheng Zihuan, the killing intent in his eyes was too obvious, as if he really wanted to kill Duan Yitong.

  "No! Uncle Han, don't hurt her!" Cheng Zihan really didn't understand why Han Jincheng was so disgusted with Duan Yitong. They shouldn't have had any contact before, and the number of times they met could be counted on one hand. How did he end up having such a big opinion about her?

  What is the reason after all?

  "Don't worry, I won't hurt her. But if she dares to lay a hand on you, I'll make her regret being born into this world!" Han Jinchen's face was cold, his tone calm and even, without the slightest fluctuation in his voice, but it was precisely this that made Cheng Zihuan feel a sense of fear in his heart.

  She lowered her head and bit her lip, no longer speaking, looking pitiful.

  Han Yi looked at the awkward atmosphere and hastily spoke up to ease the tension: "Right, Uncle, didn't you come to find Zi Han for something?"

  "En." Han Jingchen nodded and then pulled out a bank card from his pocket, handing it to Cheng Zihuan.

  Cheng Zihan raised her head in surprise and looked at him, "What do you mean?"

  "I don't like it when people bully you, especially when they bully you because you have no money. Here's some money, it should be enough for you to buy that land." Han Jinchen seemed a bit awkward, his eyes darting back and forth as he spoke, not daring to look at Cheng Zihuan.

  Cheng Zihan was stunned and stared at him with a mixture of shock and amazement.

  Han Yi looked on with a sly smile.

  It was a long time before Cheng Zihang came back to his senses. "You, are you going to let people throw money at them until they're dead?"

  "En." Han Jingchen nodded directly.

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched violently before she nodded, "How is that possible? One person's money can't be more than an entire family's."

  Seeing Cheng Zihan's disbelieving expression, Han Jincheng explained kindly: "I took out all the money from the Han family."

  Cheng Zihan was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped.

  Han Jinchen, actually took all of the Han family's money for himself?

  Cheng Zihan thought Han Jingchen was really crazy, but she was also secretly moved.

  She and Han Jinchen can be said to have no relationship at all, but he has repeatedly helped her, and this time he came to help her again. How is she supposed to repay this kindness?

  "Take it, don't worry about the funds, just name a price. I've got 100 billion here, I've taken out all the usable funds from the entire Han family. This time, Old Man Han doesn't have the capital to compete with you." Han Jingchen added, seeing Cheng Zihans stunned expression.

  This time Cheng Zihan was really severely struck.

  But then couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you afraid he'll come after you?"

  "How dare he?" Han Jingchen coldly snorted, then took out a bank card and handed it over.

  Cheng Zihan looked at him in surprise, "What is this again?"

  "This is mine, not a lot of money, only about 7 or 8 billion, you take it." Han Jinchen said this without even frowning.

  Cheng Zihan wants to scold the sky, damn it, anyone's assets are more than hers, a whole company, does she still want to live?

  Cheng Zihan felt so poor for the first time!

  Han Jingchen is indeed a pervert of the Han family. In the past decade or so, he has made significant contributions to the country and, as a member of a national secret organization, has secretly assassinated many people for the sake of national secrets, earning a substantial amount of reward money each time. Over the years, his accumulated wealth is naturally not small.

  And when he killed the national leaders of other countries back then, he didn't hesitate to seize their assets either. Some were directly handed over to the state, but most of them he kept for himself.

  Cheng Zihan now particularly wants to do one thing, which is to rush over and hug Han Jingchen's thigh, shouting shamelessly: Big shot, let's be friends.

  She's absolutely moved this time, she has absolute capital to compete with others now, and doesn't need to give up her original plan.

  Cheng Zihan was moved to tears.

  Han Jingchen finally let out a sigh of relief as he looked at her like this.

  The funding issue has been resolved, now it's just a matter of time.

  "This matter, you must keep confidential, including to your good friend. I don't trust her." Han Jinchen reminded Cheng Zihan as he was about to leave.

  Cheng Zihan nodded, this matter involved too many people, if it was leaked out, it would likely affect Han Jincheng as well. After all, he was a special person, and although he no longer served the country, his existence was probably still a thorn in its side, and they might try to find a way to get rid of him.

  Cheng Zihan naturally didn't want Han Jingchen to be in the spotlight, so even if it was for him, this matter had to be kept secret.

  It's like this, sorry to Duan Yitong.

  Han Jinchen came just to deliver the money and after finishing, he hastily left Wangcheng.

  During this time he was really busy, always appearing and disappearing suddenly, Cheng Zihang didn't even know what he was busy with, not even Han Yi knew.

  After seeing off Han Jinchen, Cheng Zihan and Han Yiqi slowly walked back to the office.

  "Han Yi, do you know what Uncle Han actually does? He's really so mysterious." Cheng Zihan couldn't help but ask as they walked to the office door.

  Han Yi furrowed his brow and thought for a moment before shaking his head, "I don't know either, he never tells me what he's busy with. But I do know that he seems to be searching all over the world for someone, and it's a woman."

  "Looking for a woman?" Cheng Zihan was surprised. She thought that Han Jincheng, this kind of man, wouldn't have women, but unexpectedly, he's actually searching all over the world for one?

  This is really curious, Cheng Zihan was very curious, what kind of woman can conquer a man like Han Junchen.

  "En. As for the specifics, I don't know either. My younger uncle will come in two days, or you can ask him." Han Yi nodded.

  "Is Dry Dad coming?" Cheng Zihan was even more surprised.

  What's wrong with these people from the Han family? They come here every day for no reason.

  "En, Uncle is worried about you, so he asked your younger uncle to protect you. I'll also stay here. The matters in Nanshi have been arranged and someone will report directly to me if there's any situation. If something urgent happens, I'll go over. For now, I'll stay by your side." Han Yi told Cheng Zihuan everything without hiding anything.

  Cheng Zihan's heart was even more deeply moved.

  Han Jingchen is really good to her, so good that she can't believe she has such a blessing, getting someone who wholeheartedly cares for and loves her.

  Han Xuanzhao arrived at noon on the second day and rushed straight to the plantation.

  As soon as he saw Cheng Zihan, he didn't say a word and directly hugged her, turned around in a circle, and only put her down afterwards. "Little girl, it seems that you've been living quite comfortably lately. Look at your figure, it's trending towards horizontal development!"

  Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched, "Who talks like that? I'm not the one who's been developing horizontally! You're the one who's been developing horizontally!"

  Women care most about their appearance and figure, and as a would-be woman, Cheng Zihang naturally also cares.

  Han Xuanzhao silently looked at Han Yi and smiled insincerely.

  Han Xuanzhao brought a special team this time, specifically to protect Cheng Ziheng here.

  The troops arrived at the plantation and dispersed around it, standing guard.

  "It's okay, I like your chubby and cute appearance." Han Xuan Zhao pinched Cheng Zi Han's face, smiling as she said.

  Cheng Zihan pouted and ignored him in anger.

  Han Xuanzhao's mission this time is to protect Cheng Zihan and Han Yi. Han Yi is now being targeted by some people because of the anti-corruption matter, and he himself is in danger alone outside, so Han Jingchen arranged for someone to come over to protect Cheng Zihan and incidentally protect Han Yi.

  Now Wangcheng has gathered too many people, and the people of the top ten hidden world families are not simple. Coupled with the previous conflict between Cheng Zihan and Chu's family, I'm afraid the other party will secretly kill them.

  Considering that the Chu family and several other families have special abilities, this time they are from the strongest special forces within the national special forces department. Every person in the team is a rare talent, with some having minor or major special abilities.

  This time, only twenty people followed Han Xuanshao to Wangcheng openly, but secretly infiltrated one hundred and fifty people. As long as the top ten hidden families do not join forces, Cheng Zihuan will be absolutely safe.

  As the land auction approaches, Wangcheng has also gathered more people. The news that Wangcheng is located in the Great Huaxia Dragon Vein spread quickly and soon became known to everyone, so everyone wants to come here to buy land and get some dragon energy.

  Thanks to Han Jinchen's support, Cheng Zihan temporarily had no worries, so he didn't worry about the upcoming auction either.

  The plantation's accounts were much easier to manage with Han Yi's help, and the initial daily accounting was changed to weekly accounting, making things less tedious and more effective.

  After a period of tempering, Cheng Zihan is no longer as flustered as he was at the beginning, and he is also doing things with a clear head.

  Han Yi just helped out on the side, while all other matters were handled by Cheng Zihan himself.

  Cheng Zihan didn't want to always rely on others, so she did everything personally.

  Duan Yitong had also come a few times, just to probe Cheng Zihans mouth, wanting to know if she really gave up on that piece of land in Wangcheng.

  However, Cheng Zihan promised Han Jincheng not to reveal it, so she didn't tell her too much.

  "Ah, I'm finally done with work, I'm exhausted! Time to go have a big meal!" With the last account settled, Cheng Zihuan slammed shut the file folder, stretched out her arms and let out a loud whoop.

  Han Yi couldn't help but look at her, and during this time, Cheng Zihan had indeed become more and more plump, with a chubby face that looked especially cute.

  "What do you want to eat today?" Cheng Zihan wanted to do something, and Han Yi would never pour cold water on her, so even though he saw her getting rounder and rounder every day, he just silently watched with a cold eye and encouraged Cheng Zihan to eat more.

  "I want to eat roasted chicken, let's go to the farm! Dad said that the chickens over there can be slaughtered, we'll catch them and roast them for food. Hurry up, hurry up." As a foodie, Cheng Zihang naturally got excited when it came to eating.

  Han Yi was forced to follow Cheng Zihan, and he found that he had also been gradually gaining weight recently. Cheng Zihan's actions undoubtedly played a part in his obesity.

  Two people left the office and directly found Liu Zhenke, asking him to drive them to the breeding farm.

  After the last incident, the farm has been developing well and recently added a new batch of calves and lambs. The number of cows and sheep has now reached 1,000 heads.

  There are some free-range chickens raised on the side of the orchard, which have been raised for more than two months and can be eaten now.

  As soon as they arrived at the farm, Cheng Zihan excitedly jumped out of the car.

  Lai Ying has been helping out at the farm lately, and Cheng Hai assigned her to take care of that plot of land in the orchard. Indeed, as Cheng Zi Han said, having something to do gave her a sense of purpose, and she no longer spends every day staring blankly at the four walls at home. Now she looks spirited and radiant.

  Li Lan was also excited because she had heard from Cheng Hai that her son had been found, so she couldn't wait for time to pass quickly, and she could see her son soon.

  When Cheng Zihan arrived, most of the other employees at the breeding farm had gone to eat, so there were only a few people in sight.

  It's just Lai Ying who is still happily busy in her own vegetable garden.

  Cheng Zihan directly pulled Han Yi into the orchard, the fruit trees were not very big, but they were very sturdy, and it was estimated that in another year or two, they would be able to bear fruit. Some of them had been grafted, and they should be able to eat the fruit next year.

  Longan and lychee are local specialties. The 300-year-old green longan tree I bought earlier has also been planted here, and after some time of care, it has started to sprout new buds. It seems that next year there is hope to eat fresh lychees.

  In the orchard, there were many chickens being raised. Because they were afraid that the chickens would run to the nearby vegetable garden to eat vegetables, a fence was built around it. As soon as Cheng Zihang and Han Yi entered, the chickens immediately surrounded them, clucking at them, apparently thinking they had come to feed them.

  Cheng Zihan smiled and directly squatted down to pick up one of the plumpest chickens, then pulled Han Yi away from the orchard.

  These chickens are not afraid of people, being held by someone and still looking like they're enjoying themselves, quietly letting Cheng Zihan hold them.

  Cheng Zihan hugged the chicken and went straight to find Cheng Hai.

  Cheng Hai was preparing lunch, and Li Lan was helping him in the kitchen. When they saw Cheng Zihan arrive, they both put down what they were doing and walked out to see the chicken in Cheng Zihan's hand, and Cheng Hai immediately understood what was going on.

  "Is Gluttonous Cat going to eat chicken now?" Cheng Hai took over the chicken from Cheng Zihan's hands and asked with a smile.

  Cheng Zihan nodded bluntly, "Yeah, I want to eat roasted chicken."

  Cheng Hai took the chicken and went straight into the kitchen. Li Lan led Cheng Zihan and Han Yi to sit in the hall.

  Because during this period of time, Cheng Hai and Li Lan were busy every day at the breeding farm, so they simply built a simple small house by the fish pond and lived here.

  The house is very simple, with only a bed and a table and chairs, nothing else.

  Lai Ying now lives in the small house next door, which is also very simple. In order to prevent her from being bored, he specially bought a small radio for her, so that she can listen to it when she has nothing to do.

  "Mom, how come there's nothing here? I'll ask someone to help you bring the TV over when I get back, so you can have some entertainment at night." Cheng Zihan looked around the empty house and felt embarrassed.

  She often comes to this side of the farm for no reason, but rarely cares about the living conditions of the workers on this side.

  Most people now live in the farm, on the plantation side there is a large staff activity center, with indoor table tennis, badminton and even billiards, as well as TVs to watch TV. When they have nothing to do, they can also sing and dance in the empty activity center, or at least get together to play cards or mahjong.

  But the conditions on the breeding farm are much worse, there is no large activity center here, and meals need to be cooked at home, which is not as convenient as the plantation.

  Cheng Zihan still doesn't care enough about the lives of employees on this side. If they compare, they will inevitably feel mentally unbalanced and are likely to cause more problems.

  It seems that after all, we should let Liu Zhenke pay attention to this and set up an activity center for the breeding farm, so that employees here have a place for leisure and entertainment, and they will naturally not have any dissatisfaction.

  There is a vacant land next to the farm that was previously reserved, which can be used now.

  At noon, Cheng Zihan had a delicious roasted chicken at Cheng Hai's place and also met Lai Ying. She was no longer as cold as before, although she wasn't overly enthusiastic towards Cheng Zihan, but was much friendlier.

  A harmonious and beautiful scene unfolded on the dinner table, with Cheng Zihang's appetite greatly satisfied, as he finished three large bowls of rice.

  Han Yi looked on silently, embarrassed, and subconsciously glanced at Cheng Zihans increasingly thick waist. At this rate, it's estimated that it will soon become a barrel waist.

  After eating and drinking enough, Cheng Zihan accompanied Cheng Hai and Li Lan for a while before reluctantly leaving.

  In the afternoon, another big battle, Cheng Zihan returned to the plantation and directly called Liu Zhenke into his own office, then told him his thoughts, and let him arrange related matters.

  Liu Zhenke acted quickly and found someone to rush out the design drawings of the activity center on the same day, then found a construction team and headed straight to the farm.

  The staff at the farm know that an employee activity center is going to be built soon, and they are all very excited, just waiting for the activity center to open so that there will be a good place for entertainment.

  Considering that the staff of the farm have nothing to do after work and go back to eat and rest, Cheng Zihang specially arranged for two large buses to pick them up. After they finish work, if anyone wants to come over to the garden for activities, they can take the bus directly. At around 9 o'clock, send them back.

  This measure has indeed been recognized by the staff of the breeding farm. On the day of implementation, almost all the staff of the entire breeding farm came to the planting garden to play. In addition to increasing a place for activities, it can also communicate the relationship between the two gardens, which is a win-win situation.

  "This can finally be put to rest." Sitting at the door, looking at the people playing enthusiastically inside the house, Cheng Zihang couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

  Han Yi and Han Xuan Zhao sat next to Cheng Zi Han, heard her words, and also looked towards the house.

  People in the house are playing ball and cards, having a great time.

  "The land auction is starting the day after tomorrow, and these next few days may be a bit rough. You must be extremely careful yourself, don't leave the plantation for no reason, I'll have someone protect you 24 hours a day." Han Xuanzhao withdrew his gaze, intently staring at Cheng Ziheng.

  "Twenty-four hours? You're not planning to have someone watch me even when I'm bathing and sleeping, are you?" Cheng Zihan's mouth twitched as she couldn't help but talk back.

  Han Xuanzhao looked at Cheng Zihan silently, stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead, "What are you thinking about? It's for your safety, not to take advantage of you. What kind of healthy stuff is in that little brain of yours?"

  "Ouch." Cheng Zihan clutched her forehead in pain and stole a glance at Han Xuanshao, nodding slightly.

  "This time, although Uncle helped secretly, the Han family can't participate anymore. However, if you spend too much money to buy that land, I think it will still be a loss. The market value of that land is at most around 30 billion, and more than that would not be worth it." Han Yi was much more rational than Cheng Zihan, and now Cheng Zihan had enough money on hand to engage in a fierce battle with other families, perhaps even buying the land at a high price. However, no matter what business she did during this period, she would inevitably suffer losses. If the land exceeded 50 billion, she would absolutely lose everything! Even if she were doing real estate now, the holiday prices were already very high. The 30 million square meters of land were all used for real estate development, but after deducting labor costs and land purchase fees, she would still be losing money. Even if she made a profit, it wouldn't be much."

  This was originally a trap, and the one who fell into it was Cheng Zihan.

  The four big families will inevitably take advantage of the situation to raise prices, even if they can't get it, they won't let Cheng Zihang get it easily, so the price will definitely be driven up to an astronomical level, and it's estimated that all of Cheng Zihang's assets will be exhausted.

  Unless there's a way to make the ten major hidden world families and the four major families in the capital withdraw from this land auction, Cheng Zihang will definitely lose big.

  The news that Wangcheng has a dragon vein was intentionally released by someone, just to make people curious about Wangcheng. It's estimated that the person who spread the news didn't know if Wangcheng really had a dragon vein at the time, but it ended up attracting the attention of the four major families and the ten hidden world families.

  At first, the five old men of the Chu family didn't discover the dragon vein when they came. The dragon energy of the dragon vein became more and more prosperous after Cheng Zihans plantation developed better and better, which is also one of the main reasons for the exposure of Wangcheng.

  But most importantly, it's still the black hand behind.

  "But even if the Han family withdraws, the other three families and those ten hidden families will definitely not withdraw. They will definitely fight to the end with me, even if they don't get it, they will definitely bite off a piece of my flesh." Han Yi thought about this, Cheng Zihuan naturally also thought about it. But she has no way out now, can she really draw a circle and curse those ten families not to participate in this auction?

  Is there any way that something can happen on the other side of the capital to force the four major families back to deal with it, so they won't be able to attend the next auction?

  Cheng Zihan scratched her head.

  Han Xuanzhao looked at her silently for a moment before speaking: "This time, you were clearly set up by someone. Don't you find it strange? There has been a hand behind your back controlling everything. The other party is very familiar with you, including your personality and way of doing things. They deliberately laid a trap for you, waiting for you to jump in voluntarily."

  Cheng Zihan furrowed her brow and glanced at Han Xuanshao. What he said wasn't impossible, Cheng Zihan herself had also felt that someone was secretly plotting against her from behind her back. However, she had offended so many people that for the time being, she didn't know who exactly was designing a trap to harm her.

  Her interpersonal relationships are indeed poor, otherwise why would so many people want her dead?

  Headache, Cheng Zihan covered her forehead and looked at Han Xuanshao, "I know, but I don't know who it is."

  "No, you know who it is. You've already had suspicions in your heart, but you're just unwilling to believe that this guess is true. You're escaping." Han Xuanshao pierced through Cheng Zihan's words very bluntly.

  Cheng Zihan's eyebrows jumped, and she looked at Han Xuanshao with a puzzled expression.

  "Zi Han, actually you see everything clearly and understand it all in your heart. It's just that you don't want to believe this fact, so you deceive yourself. Ask your own heart if what you said is really true. Don't you know who is secretly harming you behind your back?" Han Xuan Zhao looked at Cheng Zi Han steadily, his face serious and solemn, not allowing her to continue evading and dodging.

  Cheng Zihan was stunned and couldn't snap out of it for a long time. After a while, she sighed, "It can't be her."

  Han Xuanzhao opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't say anything.

  Han Yi also shook his head and sighed, they could all see that Cheng Zihan was still escaping, in fact she had already had doubts, although she didn't know when she started doubting, but she was unwilling to admit this fact.

  After being directly pointed out by Han Xuanzhao, Cheng Zihan's mood was not very good for the whole day. He lay there listlessly, not speaking a word, occasionally sighing, looking like he was feeling unwell in his heart.

  Han Yi looked at her for half a day and finally couldn't take it anymore. He went over and pulled her up, directly dragging her out of the office.

  "Korean Yi, where are you taking me?" Cheng Zihan struggled symbolically for a moment, then let Korean Yi pull her along.

  "Come and see what your so-called good friend is doing." Han Yi didn't even turn his head, speaking to Cheng Zihan in a stiff tone for the first time.

  Cheng Zihan's footsteps suddenly stopped, standing still on the spot, no matter how hard Han Yi pulled, she couldn't move.

  Han Yi also stopped and turned around to look at her, "Do you want to keep avoiding it until when?"

  "Han Yi, it's not her. You won't understand the relationship between us. Anyone is possible, but absolutely not her. Don't say anything else, I don't want to hear it." Cheng Zihan seriously looked at Han Yi, making excuses for Duan Yitong.

  Han Yi took a deep breath. "Then how do you explain that she came to ask you to mortgage the plantation that day? And also that day, wanting to buy shares in the plantation, what did you say?"

  "She just wanted to give me advice, she's not a bad person, definitely someone is framing her behind her back. No matter what, I won't believe that she did these things, Han Yi, if you really consider me as your friend, then don't stab her in the back again. Both of you are important to me, I don't want to lose either one of you."

  In the end, Han Yi couldn't bear to tell Cheng Zihuan some things he knew, which would have hurt her. Cheng Zihuan's feelings for Duan Yitong were too deep, and if she had found out that her most trusted friend had betrayed her, it was estimated that she would have a hard time accepting it.

  And now he has reached an agreement with Duan Yitong, and Duan Yitong also promised not to harm Cheng Zihan. Let's observe for a while and see if Duan Yitong really takes any other action, it's not too late to expose her then.

  Two people walked out of the office building and didn't go to the plantation to check on other things, they just left the plantation directly.

  Just arrived at the door, saw several uninvited guests.

  Cheng Zihan's face sank as soon as he saw the few people in front of him, clearly not very willing to see them.

  Those few people walked up with a smile and greeted Cheng Zihang, "Miss Cheng, how have you been lately?"

  Digression

  Or some friends might jump out and say, this is the post-80s era, how can you take out tens of billions or hundreds of billions for nothing? Here's a note: the story background is written according to the general situation of the late 90s and early 2000s, but it's not entirely based on reality. This should be considered a modern fantasy setting. And 300,000 hectares of land is not small, even if placed in that era, its value wouldn't be low.

  There may be some exaggeration inside, I hope everyone doesn't take it too seriously and just enjoy the laugh.

  These days I might have to run to the hospital every day, so there's less time for writing, but I'll try my best to update 20,000 words every day. This is the first update, and the second one might not be ready until around 11 pm. If you can't wait, dear readers, take a nap first and read the story when you wake up~
