Chapter 1027: Chapter 1027: Old and Cunning
Elder Yu talked about taxes casually, it wasn’t like he said “Why don’t you just confess and be done with it.”
He had heard too much about those grey areas, and not that he considered them “reasonable just because they existed” and could just tacitly accept them. When he was in charge, if he found something disagreeable, he wouldn’t hesitate to start a fight.
But now, as an old man who had left the power center years ago, why bother with these concerns?
He just wanted to hint to Feng Jun: I know quite a bit about your affairs, and I just can’t be bothered to fuss over them.
Then he asked, “I heard that Yuan Zihao is allowed into the bamboo forest in your valley?”
Who leaked this information? Feng Jun’s brow slightly furrowed.
But the next moment, he couldn’t be bothered to think about it, as there could be too many potential leakers.
Not to mention old cadres like Elder Yuan and Elder Peng, or people like Gao Qiang and Xu Leigang who had a connection with the Yu Family. Strictly speaking, there was no one in the entire estate above suspicion—only Gazi was relatively reliable.
Wang Haifeng had a brother in government, Sister Hong had quite a few businesses in Zhengyang, and Teacher Mei worked in the system… Truthfully, given the Yu Family’s deep roots in Zhengyang, it wouldn’t be hard to find a point of leverage on anyone.
So Feng Jun decided not to fuss over this matter. The original grounding order was partly because Elder Yu’s health couldn’t support him going to the bamboo forest and also to make it clear who was in charge of the estate.
What do you think?
