Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Hey, I always thought that all the young masters in the circle of Kyoto playboys were daring and daring, but now it seems that's not entirely true." Upon hearing that He Dahai was going to reject this idea, Xu Wei immediately began to provoke He Dahai. After getting along with him for some time, he had already figured out He Dahai's weakness, which was that this person was very concerned about his face. If you wanted to force him to do something, just use the excuse of face and he would succeed.

Sure enough, after Xu Wei's provocation, He Dahai's expression changed again and again. "Xu Wei, what do you mean? Do you mean that I am not brave enough? I can tell you that I am brave enough, but this matter is really difficult to handle, because I really can't say anything to my brother-in-law."

"Hey, Mr. He, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? What does it mean to be able to pass on a message and what does it mean to be unable to pass on a message? Those who give you money are just trying to buy a good official position. In fact, they are doing something illegal. You took their money but did not do anything. They dare not expose it because they call it bribery. You are not a government employee, so it is not called taking bribes. Do you understand? So if something goes wrong, it is their fault, not yours. Besides, this matter will kill the bold and starve the timid. It is normal for rich people to have some money. Everyone will take some detours, right? So, you don't need to worry about whether you can talk to your brother-in-law. The main problem is whether you really have such a brother-in-law. Do you understand?"

In order to get He Dahai to agree, Xu Wei tried his best to persuade him and minimized all possible problems. It seemed as if he was saying that this was a good thing that was sure to make money and there was no risk.

He Dahai was almost an idiot in politics. Otherwise, at his age, the He family would have found a way to arrange a civil servant status for him. It was because he was not cut out for it that no one mentioned it. Now, after listening to Xu Wei's explanation of how the matter was resolved, he was finally tempted. "Xu Hai, you mean that people who give money don't dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing."

"Of course I wouldn't dare to talk nonsense. Think about it, the people who gave you money must be civil servants, right? Otherwise, how could they get promoted? And since they are civil servants, they won't talk nonsense due to their status. Otherwise, they will be the first to be in trouble. So there is no risk in this matter." Xu Wei once again patted his chest and made a promise.

Xu Wei was doing ideological work for He Dahai according to his father's wishes. As long as this matter was accomplished, Feng Sizhe could be attacked from another aspect. Otherwise, although Feng Sizhe was bold in doing things, he was very careful about many details. It was too difficult to find problems with him. So he could only find a way from his relatives. Besides, He Dahai and his father He Shengjun were introduced to Haibei City by Feng Sizhe, so as long as He Dahai made a mistake, it would definitely not be due to Feng Sizhe.

He Dahai was also somewhat tempted by what Xu Wei said. He had seen many young masters and young ladies in Kyoto using their family power to trade power for money. Of course, buying official positions also happened, and it was not uncommon in the upper-class circle of powerful young men. Therefore, it was not the first time he heard of such things. Now that he heard Xu Wei say this, he thought that maybe this thing could really work. As long as he didn't take a lot of money, the problem shouldn't be a big deal. Besides, although the He family's influence was not as great as before after the death of Mr. He, it should be able to cover up any problems in a small place like Haibei.

Seeing that He Dahai was moved, Xu Wei told him how unsuccessful several people in officialdom were and how much money they wanted to spend to become what kind of official they were.

These people on the list are indeed those who want to buy official positions, but they just can't find the right way. Now that Xu Wei has said it, He Dahai nodded. "Well, if there is really no risk as you said, I think we should give it a try, but I have to say, don't let anything happen, otherwise my dad will beat me to death."

"Hey, look at what you said. What can possibly happen? Besides, didn't I just say that these people just want to be a small official, a section chief at most. Even if something really happens, it's not a big deal." Seeing He Dahai nodded in agreement, Xu Wei continued to cheer him up.

"Well...well, I'm only responsible for collecting the money. I can't possibly arrange work for them. You have to understand this." He Dahai looked at Xu Wei and said with a look of trust in him.

"No problem, just collect the money, haha." Xu Wei nodded in agreement immediately. If he could get the job done this time, he would definitely be looked at differently by his father.

So, without anyone knowing, He Dahai, under Xu Wei's arrangement, privately met with five people who paid for official positions and accepted a total of 120,000 yuan in bribes.

These things were done without the knowledge of the He family and Feng Sizhe. Xu Wei arranged all these things, but he was very smart. According to his father, he never showed up, so those people who paid for official positions did not know that Xu Wei was controlling all this. All they knew was that He Dahai, who met them and took their money, had a cousin-in-law who was formerly the executive vice mayor of Haibei City and is now the mayor of Lianhua City.

The root of the disaster had already been planted. After seeing his son "helping" He Dahai to do these things, Xu Fengjun came to the provincial capital, met with the leader Liu Yuesong, and told him what had happened.

Upon hearing Feng Jun's report, Liu Yuesong nodded happily. "Great, Feng Jun is really quick to act. Very good. This time we can catch evidence of his relatives' crimes. This will have some influence and destructive power on him. How about this? You go back to Haibei City immediately and report this matter to your Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. I want to see if he will come out to take care of the He family's problems. As long as he comes out to take care of it, things will be easy to handle."

Liu Yuesong was thinking about how to deal with Feng Sizhe's relatives. In that case, it would be an invisible blow to Feng Sizhe. If Feng Sizhe took care of it, he would be in trouble. If he didn't care, that's fine too. In that case, when others knew about it, they would say that Feng Sizhe was too stingy. He watched his relatives in trouble but didn't help them. This would make many people who had already favored him and relied on him have new ideas. The most important thing was that the He family would also have opinions about him. If that happened, Feng Sizhe would suffer a great loss.

So, when Xu Fengjun returned to Haibei City, not long after, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection received information about He Dahai accepting money to buy official positions for others. When Wang Changhui, secretary of the Haibei Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, heard the report from his subordinates, he quickly took it seriously. After thinking about it, he called the mayor Wei Zuosheng.

Even Wang Changhui knew that Shengjun Real Estate, which was booming in the real estate industry in Haibei City, was introduced by Wei Zuosheng, so if he wanted to do anything with the young chairman of Shengjun Real Estate, he had to give a heads-up to the mayor.

Although Wei Zuosheng had said hello to Shengjun Real Estate's development in Haibei City and given some care within his authority, it was all to give face to Feng Sizhe. How could he really have time to take care of Shengjun Real Estate? So when he heard the news about this sudden situation, he was also very shocked. He didn't expect that He Shengjun's son would be so bold as to engage in the business of buying and selling official positions.

In view of the fact that this matter was related to Feng Sizhe, Wei Zuosheng attached great importance to it after receiving the report. He asked Wang Changhui to investigate the case carefully and not to believe everything he heard. He should focus on evidence. After that, he did not call Feng Sizhe immediately. In his opinion, it would be better not to tell Feng Sizhe before the matter was confirmed.

In this way, until He Dahai's affair of buying and selling official positions was discovered, Feng Sizhe still didn't know the truth of the matter. He was still working hard in Lianhua City for the goal he and Secretary Xia Xiang had set years ago to make Lianhua City a medium-developed city in the province. It was not until He Shasha called him that he knew what had happened.

He Shasha was very anxious on the phone because her cousin had called her. He Dahai told his sister that he had committed a crime in Haibei City and that the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection was investigating him. Five people who had given him money had been detained by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. He would most likely be called in for a talk next. He asked his sister what he should do.

He Dahai was very anxious on the phone, and even said that if things really didn't work out, he would run back to Kyoto. As long as he returned to the He family in Kyoto, he didn't believe that anyone would dare to arrest him.

Of course He Shasha didn't agree with He Dahai running away. If you run away, it proves that you are guilty. At that time, no one will listen to your explanation. So while He Shasha was trying to calm him down, she called Feng Sizhe and asked him what to do next.

Feng Sizhe was busy with the economic development of Lianhua City every day and had long forgotten about introducing He Shengjun and his son to Haibei. Now when He Shasha called him, he realized what had happened. After He Shasha introduced the situation in detail, Feng Sizhe realized that his brother-in-law was so bold that he actually participated in the buying and selling of official positions, which was illegal. He himself was afraid that he could not stay out of it this time, because He Dahai was using himself as a cover.
