Chapter 1526: Chapter 733 Interview_2

...

Several elders took turns to register their names, then Sixth Master yelled angrily, "Don’t fight over it, none of you can use a phone anyway, don’t even know to talk into the bottom part and still fighting over nothing!"

After yelling at others, he switched to a smiling face, "Old squad leader, let me tell you, one of my grandsons went to college, and now he’s met a righteous boss who invited us to tour the Capital. I thought I might as well visit you..."

So these old fellows from the little village became the most welcomed tourists upon arriving in the Capital.

The reporters in the Capital also didn’t forget the hero who made this trip possible, and that afternoon Yan Fei received a call requesting an interview. When he heard that they wanted to interview him, Yan Fei immediately tried to excuse himself using his business in Frozen Soil City.

Hearing this, Director Pi was displeased, "You little rascal, they want to interview you and you’re not happy? You’re not afraid when you do bad things, but now you’re afraid when you do something good? Let me speak to them."

"No, no, no, I’ll do it myself," Yan Fei quickly surrendered. "Well, Comrade Journalist, how about we do the interview when I get back? I really can’t leave right now, I’m stuck here in Frozen Soil City and can’t return for a while!"

As it turns out, the journalists in the Capital have wide-ranging connections, and instantly said, "That’s alright, as long as Boss Yan agrees. We have colleagues in Frozen Soil City as well, how about I have them contact you shortly? It won’t take much of your time, at most half an hour."

Thus, Yan Fei could only schedule a time and place with another journalist who called, and he accepted the interview.

There isn’t much to say about the interview, but by evening, even the news in Frozen Soil City was broadcasting about the Capital tour group, casually mentioning that Boss Yan, the sponsor of the trip, was currently touring their city.

Following this little episode, Yan Fei clearly felt that the attitude of the people at the scrap recycling station towards him had changed significantly.

Initially, everyone was quite enthusiastic about him, but only some straightforward ones. They felt that Boss Yan was a decent man, very forthright and cared for justice—such a big boss still so impulsive, seeing injustices and reacting fervently was quite satisfying.

However, another portion who were more mature felt that his actions were somewhat unprincipled. Even if the wine he brought was highly praised by Director Pi, if they disliked it, they just couldn’t stand it.

But with this interview and further understanding in the afternoon, this group of people also changed their view on him—no matter what, Boss Yan was clear and decisive about major issues and ready to act, and this was enough for them to alter their opinions.

In the evening, as Yan Fei was having dinner, he received another call. Upon seeing the number, he stood up and moved aside, "Uncle Meng, hello!"

It was Assistant Meng who had led the team from the Ministry of Agriculture visiting Wan City last time. Yan Fei wasn’t sure if the assistant had been promoted recently, but thinking that he didn’t expect anything from him, he promptly addressed him as Uncle Meng.

Assistant Meng was very pleased when he heard this, "Yan Fei, I saw the news. With you leading the way, perhaps there will be more such tour groups in the future, you’ve really done another great deed!"

Yan Fei humbly replied, "It’s just a small matter, I knew Yang Hongqi from school days, and after he arrived he talked about their situation there, mentioning that his biggest wish was to take the old fellows to see the great changes in our prosperous state. I figured it was no big deal, just lending a hand, and it also ensures he works well for me in the future!"

Assistant Meng burst into laughter.

After a bit more idle chat, Assistant Meng finally got to the main topic, "Xiao Fei, about that wine of yours, you still have some, right?"

"Yes, just tell me how much you need, I’ll arrange for someone to bring it over." Yan Fei was very generous, not worried about being shortchanged.

"No need for you to send it over, I’ll send someone to pick it up," Assistant Meng said cheerfully. "Also, I wanted to ask, can you supply this wine long-term? Maybe we should sign a contract or something?"

"Supply is not a problem, and it’s okay to sign an agreement, but the quantity can’t be large," Yan Fei said. "As you know, the production is just that little, and it hasn’t been inspected or anything, almost considered a non-warranty product. Providing it still involves the risk of getting checked!"

This is just a joke, not even considering who is asking for the goods. Even if they are non-warranty products, would anyone dare to inspect them?

Assistant Meng laughed heartily again and then settled the matter.

After hanging up the phone, Yan Fei purposely showed off to those present: "Look, I’ve just made another deal."

As soon as he mentioned what the deal was, everyone at the dining table laughed: "Seems like we’ve gotten ourselves quite a bargain!"

For the next period of time, life for Yan Fei became carefree. He roamed around Frozen Soil City, traveling back and forth by boat, and even went out to sea when he felt like it.

For Lin Haihu and Yan Chao, who had never traveled far, these days were like living a fairy tale. Eating seafood every day, riding cars and boats everywhere, playing however they wanted to, and visiting every nearby scenic spot.

Frozen Soil City is quite famous now, with a reputation no less than the special economic zones in the south or Wuyang City. Its development is indeed good.

Of course, no matter how well it developed, for Yan Fei, what truly made him happy was achieving his purpose for the trip—at least in his view, Director Pi and others haven’t linked him to the mysterious person selling ’junk planes.’

However, it’s a pity that another goal Boss Yan had, under his wife’s strict watch, was never achieved.

A frustrated Boss Yan could only vent his anger in other ways—recently, the new leader of Bay was crying out for independence and autonomy, Japan just lost an airbase, leading America’s fleet, under the guise of having lost the base, to loiter around the nearby waters, seemingly saying, ’little brother, go ahead and make trouble, I’ve got your back.’

Just a few waves later, Boss Yan got annoyed, took advantage of a stormy night, and caused quite some damage on those ships, capturing some laborers to hold in reserve for future use.

After spending most of the month playing in Frozen Soil City, Yan Fei finally couldn’t resist the pressure from home anymore and had to prepare to return.

Though the admission notice had not arrived yet, everyone in the field knew it was probably a done deal that Boss Yan would go to school in the Provincial City—everyone thought, even without the notice, Boss Yan wouldn’t have trouble getting in. The two old men often walking by the river, if they indeed went to speak up for him, getting into school wouldn’t be a difficult matter.

Since he was about to leave, he had to rearrange things in the field before he left. After all, going to school isn’t like now; he can’t come back anytime—it’s not really that everyone thinks he can’t come back from school, but considering he’d be with his wife, they fear he wouldn’t return.

Besides that, everyone in Sancha River township knew about the tour group matter. Many people, subtly and not so subtly, were inquiring if Boss Yan had thought of organizing such a trip in our area.

There’s also the matter of the novel. According to news passed by Will, a publishing house there expressed great satisfaction and hoped to discuss copyright issues with the author.

If these were minor matters, then there was one big thing; Boss Yan’s thesis was set to be published in the next issue, which is just a few days away.

Other things, like increased business in the field and the fertilizer plant starting production were ’small matters’ that the people in the field didn’t even want to ’bother’ him with.

With a whole bunch of things piled up and non-stop phone calls, there was nothing Yan Fei could do. He bid farewell to Director Pi and his group, took the reluctant Yan Chao, the nearly resident Lin Haihu, and his wife who was also pushing him to return, and prepared to start the journey home.
