Chapter 266: Chapter 266 Another Change

While Ji Yang was in the process of changing clothes, his cell phone began to ring.

He picked it up and saw it was a call from Chu Shuyuan.

He signaled to both women to swim first, then Ji Yang walked to the side to answer the phone.

Both women were understanding and didn’t make any fuss at this time, giving a slight nod.

After picking up the call, Ji Yang asked, "Sister, what’s happened again?"

"Can’t I call you if nothing’s happened? Are you exercising with some woman again?"

"Sister, look at what you’re saying. I just got home from a team meeting."

"Fine, I don’t care about that mess. Health is important; you can’t mess around with shady characters."

"Got it." Ji Yang also touched his nose.

After finding a sofa to sit down, Ji Yang talked about the situation in Qingyuan Village and the county, especially mentioning the power struggle between two leaders in the county.

Hearing this, Chu Shuyuan said, "I was just about to discuss this with you. There have been some changes among the leadership in Capital City recently, and after the adjustments, some new families have emerged."

Ji Yang wasn’t very familiar with the matters in Capital City, he just listened, knowing that it must have something to do with Qingyuan Village.

Sure enough, Chu Shuyuan continued, "Let’s put it this way, the rice wine from Qingyuan Village is getting more popular. Because of its various health benefits, the families in your province can no longer control it."

"That powerful?"

Ji Yang knew it was a good product, but he hadn’t realized it was that influential.

Chu Shuyuan explained, "It’s said that a certain life factor has been extracted from that rice wine, which also benefits longevity. Think about it, many old comrades want to live longer."

Having heard this, Ji Yang understood that indeed, everyone wanted longevity. If one could control this product, it would be beneficial for the entire family.

Chu Shuyuan added, "After our Chu Family disclosed the formula, it received a lot of support from other families, showing them the benefits. As a result, some of the newly rising families learned about the situation there and started thinking about getting involved."

"So you mean, a certain family is going to take over the pharmaceutical factory?"

"You’re thinking too small. Since it contains longevity factors, it naturally requires state intervention. So now, the state is negotiating with those families, and all the shares of the pharmaceutical factory will be nationalized. The Wu Family Sisters and others will have to be prepared to give up their shares."

Ji Yang said, "I never planned to make money off it. As you know, several people own small shares, and even my mother holds a significant amount."

"Mhm, when the time comes, everything will be nationalized. But don’t worry, the compensation due to you guys will still be paid."

"All of that isn’t an issue; we comply with management."

"It’s good you’re mentally prepared for this. Also, there’s another thing: Wushu Village will become a special park dedicated to research and development related to these matters."

"So, it sounds like some families are going to plant their people there?"

Ji Yang felt somewhat speechless about these privileged offspring being parachuted in. He guessed that once those young masters arrived, they would probably cause some trouble.

After a moment of hesitation, Chu Shuyuan said, "You’re now a deputy county head, so someone may take over your job as head of Qingyuan Village."

"I’m currently holding a deputy county head position, too."

"That’s why there’s still debate over your appointment. Some people want to keep you in your place, but many others plan to move you to a different position."

Ji Yang fell silent. He lacked a strong background, which is why his position could be so easily shuffled.

"You don’t need to worry. After all, some families owe you favors. Even if they decide to move you, it can only be to a better position, otherwise, it wouldn’t be acceptable."

"I don’t really care about that, I’m just concerned that Qingyuan Village’s hard-won progress might face problems again."

"You needn’t worry too much about that. This time, they will definitely choose capable comrades to go. However, those you have promoted might experience job changes."

"These people supported my work and came to Qingyuan Village. If their next positions aren’t improvements, I will find it hard to persuade them."

"You don’t need to worry about that. Everyone owes you favors, and will take care of your people. Regarding your situation, there’s a consensus that you should go to the provincial party school for further study. After you complete your studies, you’ll move up to a higher level. Your limited experience is a handicap; a transitional phase like this can make it easier to promote you."

"Further studies again?"

"This time you’ll be able to get a graduate certificate. Having a grad degree will be better for your future development."

Ji Yang knew that he had no say in this matter. That Chu Shuyuan apprised him of the situation ahead of time was because people owed him favors. In fact, this might actually be a good thing for him.
