Chapter 279 Building momentum
"Third Uncle, I'm so sorry to have invited you over so late!"
Upon seeing this, Chen Le greeted him with great enthusiasm.
"What are you talking to me about, kid? Are you being too polite?"
After Uncle Chu came down, he pulled Chen Le aside, and he was incredibly friendly.
for him.
This young man in front of me is extraordinary; he is destined for great things and has already become a prominent figure in the entire Tianzhou.
Most importantly, Chen Le not only made a fortune himself, but also managed to teach his nephew Chu Yaoyang to be completely obedient.
Uncle Chu became happier and happier as he thought about it.
After all, Yaoyang's progress has been so remarkable that it's almost like he's been reborn.
Not only did he stop hanging out with those bad friends, but he also became obsessed with his work, and his net worth has already exceeded 100 million.
Even when his father approached him for a collaboration, the kid turned him down.
If Chen Le hadn't taken him under his wing, would he be where he is today?!
"Little Ale, Yaoyang is getting more and more impressive lately. Last night he even gave me a lesson in economics and finance, analyzing the situation for me for most of the night. I was so sleepy!"
"Third Uncle, it's all my fault. It's all my fault for messing around with him lately. I even dared to show off my limited skills in front of you!"
Chen Le grinned as he spoke.
"That's it, then you give him a good beating!"
“This kid is getting more and more reckless lately, and he’s prone to getting into trouble. We need to keep a close eye on him.”
“He’s been acting up lately, he won’t even listen to his dad.”
Uncle Chu laughed so hard his head was tilted back and forth; he couldn't have been happier.
While he was saying that Chu Yaoyang was too much, the sense of satisfaction he felt was genuine and practically written all over his face.
And this pride all comes from Chen Le.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Uncle Chu cleared his throat and said with a smile:
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that kid anymore, let's get down to business!"
“I’ve heard about what’s going on at your construction site. The entire Mang Village is suing you, demanding that you stop construction immediately!”
"Especially this village chief, Zhao Qiangsheng, has hundreds of villagers blocking the entrance to the government office every day. This has caused quite a stir!"
At this point, Uncle Chu's attitude also became serious.
Chen Le nodded and said seriously:
"That's right, a source of pollution has indeed been found at the construction site, and it has been verified that the pollution levels are exceeding the standards!"
"However, I measured the distance between Mang Village and our construction site—"
"If the pollution source contaminates the land here, the distance it travels will be at least 3 kilometers, which is a straight-line distance of 7 kilometers!"
"Third Uncle, before it gets dark, look over there..."
"You see that bridge? There's a small river flowing under it called the Hulan River."
"That river surrounds the village and is used for irrigation. It's the source of pollution that flows here, causing large-scale soil pollution!"
"But as you can see, this river is at least 7 kilometers away from the pollution source at our construction site."
"Given the distance, it would require a huge engineering project to discharge the pollution here; at least a 7-kilometer-long ditch would need to be built."
"This is clearly impossible."
"Any discerning person would never think that we would deliberately build a seven-kilometer-long ditch just to dump polluting waste onto the farmland of Mang Village, just to prevent the villagers of Mang Village from farming."
"Why would we risk having to stop work and production if the villagers protest?"
When Chen Le said this, Uncle Chu immediately understood, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"I knew you'd come to me; you must have plenty of confidence!"
"Your evidence of pollution is insufficient now, and it can be completely clarified."
"I can report this to my superiors, and it won't delay your construction period!"
"But this is clearly a deliberate act by someone with ulterior motives, and this must be thoroughly investigated!"
"Are you sure you can handle this?"
Uncle Chu turned to look at Chen Le and asked.
"Uncle San, I..."
Chen Le's face instantly turned serious, but before he could finish speaking, Uncle Chu burst out laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha."
"I know, you must be confident, otherwise you wouldn't have come to me!"
"Tonight we must dig out the culprits and punish them severely!"
Uncle Chu's eyes were extremely sharp at this moment.
"I've already contacted the administration department, and they should be here in a few minutes!"
"I've also contacted the Environmental Protection Bureau, the Power Exploration Bureau, and the Health Department; they're all on their way."
"I was anxious, so I came over ahead of time."
obviously.
He was genuinely angry.
Polluting farmers' land and fishing grounds is a serious crime.
We will not tolerate this.
Moreover, this behavior is utterly heinous.
Chen Le remained silent, but was deeply moved.
Uncle Chu's trust in him was truly from the bottom of his heart.
After all, he hadn't even presented a complete chain of evidence yet, and his third uncle had already mobilized such a vast network of connections.
This is all about the bond of ancestral worship!
Chen Le was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.
……
I waited for less than 10 minutes.
As night fell, key personnel from various departments quickly arrived at the scene at the summons of Uncle Chu.
Their figures cast long shadows under the streetlights.
A tense atmosphere filled the air; everyone knew that tonight would be a sleepless night.
Uncle Chu stood in front of the makeshift command post, his gaze fixed intently on the direction of Mang Village, the heart of tonight's operation.
"Third Uncle, there's something I'm worried about."
Chen Le's voice broke the silence.
"Oh? You said."
Uncle Chu turned around in surprise.
Chen Le said in a deep voice, "If Zhao Qiangsheng organizes the villagers to stop us, what should we do?"
Uncle Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, and after thinking for a moment, a decisive look flashed in his eyes.
"Let the fire chief enter the village first and begin the evacuation of people."
He said in a low voice, his tone unwavering, "However—this is a big operation, but we must do it in order to find out the truth."
"You'd better be prepared to handle the pressure."
Chen Le took a deep breath and said seriously, "Third Uncle, if we can't find the culprit and the source of the pollution today, you can take my head off and use it as a football."
"Ah Le, I trust you. Go ahead and do it."
Uncle Chu waved his hands repeatedly, his tone softening, "But you must understand, these people are no pushovers either."
Uncle Chu gently pointed to the key personnel from various departments who were gathered together not far away, discussing animatedly!
Chen Le knew that without Uncle Chu's coordination, mobilizing so many forces would have been almost impossible.
If they can't find the results, they will definitely come after you.
Then, Uncle San turned to Captain Wu beside him and said, "Captain Wu, you take your team and turn on the horns in the car to make some noise and ensure the safe and orderly evacuation of the villagers to the east entrance of the village. The criminal investigation, geological exploration, and health inspection departments will go with us to bypass the village from the west and head straight for the abandoned factory inside the village."
As soon as Uncle Chu gave the order, everyone's eyes instantly focused on one point, and they responded to the command in unison.
Captain Wu took the lead, guiding three or four fire trucks to start moving slowly!
The alarm shattered the night's tranquility, like a silver thread piercing the village's serenity.
Fire trucks drove one after another into the village, their piercing sirens echoing in the night sky, causing a stir.
