Chapter 728: Chapter 728

Qian Xuan gave Liu Zhizhong a cold look, "Don't be in such a hurry; the more anxious you are, the more suspicious it looks! Whether there's something to hide or not, you know it in your heart, right? Besides, all murderers argue that they've never killed anyone. I'm not really concerned about you two, just making an offhand remark, haha…"

Luo Shuxiu also smiled and nodded, "Mhm, that's Underclassman Zhizhong and his mother-in-law's business. It's not really related to us!"

Liu Zhizhong had a pained expression on his face, "Sister Shuxiu, you're here too. My mother-in-law and I are innocent as daylight..."

These two, watching Liu Zhizhong with his bitter face, laughed out loud again. They were just after a pleasant atmosphere, a bit of fun.

Regardless, they continued to enjoy their meal happily!

Liu Zhizhong went on to say, "Brother Xuan, the place at Ru River Shuangxin Valley is really nice. I actually have a little idea, and I'm wondering if it might be possible."

"Oh? What's the idea?" Qian Xuan became curious, wiping his mouth with a napkin while showing great interest.

"I was thinking that even though that place is within the Shennong Grand Canyon nature reserve boundaries, it's quite remote. Only some fishermen who ride motorcycles can get there, or you'd need a helicopter. Or with my kind of super off-road RV, it would be possible."

"Could we find a way to set this place aside? It would still be part of the nature reserve, but we could enclose a large area as a private leisure residence. And all this without disturbing the outside world."

"For housing, we could use local materials, create buildings with the natural stones and such. We don't need electricity; portable power packs would suffice when we're staying there. Not wiring the place up for electricity would minimize the risk of exposure and protect our privacy."

"As for water, we'd only need to set up for sanitary water use. We could take it from the Ru River. And for the disposal of wastewater, we can treat it and run pipes to discharge it five kilometers downstream of Shuangxin Valley."

"I've seen satellite images of the whole geographical area, and within a twenty-kilometer radius of Shuangxin Valley, there are no residents, making it secluded and tranquil. If we could find a way to secure it, it would indeed be an incredible spot!"

"You and Sister Shuxiu have a helicopter; you could actually go and take a look in person. If necessary, we could join forces and develop the place. As for the money, I'll cover it; my money isn't an issue, it's expendable. The main thing is, hehe..."

As he spoke, Liu Zhizhong's laugh turned sly.

Qian Xuan also smiled knowingly before rolling his eyes at Liu Zhizhong, "I, of course, get what you're scheming, huh huh... That place is part of Shennong County, which belongs to Donghua City. But the Shennong Grand Canyon nature reserve is managed by the Provincial City; it's under the jurisdiction of the Cultural and Tourism Bureau, Land and Resources, and Environmental Protection departments."

Liu Zhizhong nodded and uttered two affirmatives.

"Don't just make noises. If you say you want to be the County Mayor of Shennong County, or even the County Party Secretary, and after five or six years become the deputy mayor, Brother Xuan would have no problem making that happen for you. But securing such a large piece of private land, twenty kilometers in diameter... heh, you'd better approach the Zheng Family for that—it might be easier."

Liu Zhizhong was left speechless.

Luo Shuxiu said, "Underclassman Zhizhong, you take care of Zheng Sanjing's funeral and farewell ceremony. Make sure it satisfies everyone, then bring this matter up with Feng Xiaoyue later, and it might just work out."

Qian Xuan added, "Absolutely, your sister-in-law's got it right. If the Zheng Family asks, they could grant you an area of fifty kilometers in diameter, not just twenty! Of course, knowing you, you wouldn't go that extreme. I believe you."

Liu Zhizhong looked astounded, "Is the Zheng Family really that powerful?"

Qian Xuan nodded seriously, "That's the way it is. The Zheng Family's influence covers all your needs."

"Alright, I'll give it a try."

"It's not about trying; it's about making an effort."

"The Shuangxin Valley you mentioned really interests me. However, it looks like the location is too far from my base but quite close to Yangzhou. So, I'm not going to consider it. Once you've got things set up, I could definitely visit with your sister-in-law."

Liu Zhizhong laughed, "We'll definitely have to make sure there are enough rooms!"

"Mhm, and set up swings for my kids and everything!"

At Qian Xuan's words, Luo Shuxiu's face turned red, and Liu Zhizhong lowered his head, somewhat embarrassed.

But Qian Xuan was quite relaxed as he continued, "As for craftsmen and designers, you should contact Feng Xiaoyue. As long as the Zheng Family gives the word, they have plenty of ways to get things done. In terms of landscape planning and construction, the Zheng Family has lots of connections; they'll ensure your satisfaction. Even this villa estate of mine was made possible by the Zheng Family's resources. How about that, not too shabby, right?"

Liu Zhizhong was delighted, "That's great, Brother Xuan. With your word, I have nothing to worry about."

"That's good then! If you're reassured, that's what matters! After dinner, I'll see you out; I have something private to discuss."

Things suddenly took a secretive turn, to the point that even Luo Shuxiu stepped away! Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel※fire.net
