In the director's office of the Butterfly Garment Factory that morning, Qin Chuan took advantage of Li Ya's busyness to secretly exchange messages with Teacher Yang from the provincial capital.
Since their relationship was fully confirmed, Teacher Yang's attitude towards him had become significantly warmer, even proactively sending messages to check on him.
This had never happened before, and it was clear that Teacher Yang had genuinely developed feelings for Qin Chuan. This was a very good sign.
In her message, Yang Zimo told Qin Chuan that she had started her job!
She was working as a junior employee at Jinmei International.
Apart from a very small number of people, no one else knew her true identity.
Hearing that Teacher Yang had started working, Qin Chuan was naturally very happy and congratulated her repeatedly.
"Xiao Chuan, what are you doing? I've called you a few times, but you didn't respond?"
Just as Qin Chuan was engrossed in texting with Teacher Yang, a voice suddenly came from beside his ear.
Qin Chuan was startled and realized that Li Ya, who had been working behind the office desk, was now standing behind him, her eyes glancing at his phone.
"Oh, a customer was asking me something, and I was explaining it to him in detail."
Qin Chuan's expression remained unchanged as he quietly turned off the phone screen.
"Why bother texting for something like this? It's much more convenient to call directly," Li Ya said.
"He's in a meeting, how can I call?" Qin Chuan replied with a smile.
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door. Li Ya called out, "Come in!"
Zheng Chengdao and Qin Erge pushed the door open and entered.
"Well, well, our two capable assistants are back! Have you seen them off?" Qin Chuan asked with a smile.
"Yes, we have. Our car followed them for several miles before returning," Zheng Chengdao said.
Qin Chuan nodded with satisfaction. He really liked Zheng Chengdao's meticulous approach to tasks and felt completely at ease.
Sometimes, Qin Chuan would curiously wonder about this capable subordinate's past. His intuition told him that Zheng Chengdao's experiences were definitely special and not as simple as just having been involved in some minor trouble for a few years.
However, these were private matters, and Qin Chuan didn't want to pry.
"Come, sit down, have some tea, and let's chat."
Qin Chuan invited his second brother and Zheng Chengdao to sit.
"Where did you hide those two cars?" Qin Chuan asked after they were seated.
"Of course, in a very secure place where they absolutely won't be found," Qin Erge chuckled.
"What are you talking about? What two cars? Are they Liu Sanhu's cars?" Li Ya asked from the side, looking confused.
"Yes, they are Liu Sanhu's two cars." Qin Chuan nodded. "These two guys are incredibly audacious. Not only did they remove the engines and tires, but they also moved the remaining car frames away in the middle of the night yesterday!"
After speaking, he shot a stern look at Qin Erge and Zheng Chengdao.
"Xiao Chuan, I only dared to do this after getting your permission. If you hadn't agreed, I wouldn't have dared to do anything so reckless, even with ten times the courage!" Qin Erge said, plastering a fawning smile on his face.
Li Ya widened her beautiful eyes again, looking at Qin Chuan in astonishment. "When did you agree?"
"It was last night after we got home. Didn't I receive a call? This scoundrel said he liked that Audi and asked if I could get it." Qin Chuan explained, then looked at his second brother and Zheng Chengdao.
"At the time, I thought about it and felt it wasn't impossible. Liu Sanhu and his gang aren't exactly good people. It felt too easy for them to make a million yuan this time. Plus, with Huang Lianqin as a weakness, I agreed."
Li Ya was completely stunned. She never imagined that such a big event had happened after they went home to sleep last night.
These people were truly audacious and would dare to do anything.
Li Ya had seen Liu Sanhu's Audi before. It was almost the same model as the one she had just bought, worth five or six hundred thousand yuan.
Such a luxury car was not something anyone would dare to covet. If they reported it to the police, the consequences would be severe if they were caught.
"You... you really are..."
After understanding the whole story, Li Ya's feelings were complex, and she didn't know what to say.
"Who brought this up first?" Li Ya suddenly asked curiously.
"This must have been suggested by Second Brother first, then you contacted Brother Dao, and after you two discussed it, Brother Dao thought it was feasible, and then Second Brother called to ask for my opinion," Qin Chuan said with a smile, looking at the two in front of him.
"Damn it, Xiao Chuan, you're truly a genius. Your guess is absolutely spot on!" Qin Erge looked at his younger brother with shock, then began to pound the sofa with his fists as if weeping. "Lao San, if you keep this up, you'll lose me as your second brother, you know!"
"Why?" Li Ya turned into a curious baby and quickly asked.
"Why else? This guy is too smart. He puts a lot of pressure on me and Big Brother. He doesn't have any dignity as an older brother!" Qin Erge said, putting on a very aggrieved expression.
His words made Li Ya burst into laughter, and she leaned affectionately on Qin Chuan's shoulder with a proud look on her face.
The man she had chosen was naturally the smartest!
Zheng Chengdao also smiled, and a look of genuine admiration appeared in his eyes as he looked at Qin Chuan. He knew that this kind of thing would definitely be perfectly handled by the boss. Their young boss was truly too intelligent. His future achievements were highly anticipated.
"So, what are you planning to do with those two cars next?" Qin Chuan asked after the laughter subsided.
"That's simple. Find a reliable repair shop, repaint the entire car, replace the tires and glass. As for the license plates, just discard them, and everything will be fine!" Qin Erge said quickly. "As long as these cars don't leave Yongnan County, there will definitely be no problems!"
"From now on, this Audi A6 will be Brother Dao's and mine. We won't have to fight with those guys over a car anymore," Zheng Chengdao said with a smile. "You can drive the A6, and I'll drive the Santana. That car is also very new, no need to repaint it, just replace the tires and glass, and it'll be good to go."
"Really? That's great, thank you, Brother Dao!" Qin Erge was overjoyed.
Seeing his excited second brother, Qin Chuan didn't bother to say anything more. He stood up and said, "Do whatever you want. I need to go to the county government now!"
"Boss, do you want me to accompany you?" Zheng Chengdao asked.
"No need. Everyone go about their own business. I'm just going there to take a look, and then I have to go to the electronics factory. There's more work to be done there."
Half an hour later, in the county magistrate's office, Qin Chuan was chatting with Ye Qingping, and Wang Ping'an brought over freshly brewed tea.
"What did you say? Those big capitalists left early this morning?" Qin Chuan frowned.
"Yes, they left!" Ye Qingping nodded. "They came this time for a simple inspection. If there's any cooperation later, it will be after the new year."
Qin Chuan sighed. "It seems I've returned too late. I've missed an opportunity!"
"Qin Chuan, I know what you're up to. Don't worry, if the project is finalized, I'll actively recommend your sand quarry," Ye Qingping said. "Don't forget, we are close partners now. If I don't take care of you, who will?"
"Really? Thank you very much, County Magistrate!" Qin Chuan was very happy. Ye Qingping's words gave him peace of mind.
"Don't thank me just yet. Your Xinhua Electronics Factory is currently developing a project called an 'Electronic Locker,' and it's already entering mass production," Ye Qingping said. "After I heard my sister talk about the various uses of this 'Electronic Locker,' I was very pleased!"
"This proves that I didn't misjudge you!"
"If you can really achieve something, there will be benefits everywhere in the future. I will definitely not treat you unfairly!"
"Don't worry, Magistrate Ye, I definitely won't disappoint you!" Qin Chuan's face was filled with strong confidence.
