Chapter 271 Pedantic and Inflexible

"Director Xiao, to be honest, Chen Feng is younger than me."

The accountant said softly.

Honestly, if she hadn't seen Chen Feng with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed Chen Feng was so young.

"What? Chen Feng is younger than you? How is that possible? He's a deputy county head and not old, so how could he be connected to the Wang family in the capital? To tell you the truth, even people at my level have no chance to curry favor with the Wang family in the capital!"

Xiao Teng replied with disbelief.

"Director Xiao, I understand how you feel. But reality is reality. Chen Feng is indeed very young and indeed has connections with the Wang family in the capital, and it's not just a casual relationship. By the way, Director Xiao, didn't you say you have connections in the capital too? You could try to confront Deputy County Head Chen."

The accountant tentatively said.

"Are you out of your mind? Confront him? Am I tired of living? Confront the Wang family in the capital? Do you know how powerful the Wang family in the capital is? They are like the Ye family in the southern part of China. The Wang family in the capital is powerful to a mythical degree. You want me to provoke the Wang family?"

Xiao Teng scolded.

"Is the Wang family in the capital that powerful?"

The accountant asked, feeling dizzy.

"Ten thousand times more powerful than you can imagine! Stop with the nonsense, and quickly transfer all the money from my account to the account Chen Feng gave you. Hurry!"

Xiao Teng said anxiously.

"Director Xiao, all the money in your account is in national debt, funds, and futures... Liquidating it now will result in significant losses. Are you sure?"

The accountant tentatively asked.

It had to be said that Director Xiao had truly extensive connections, with avenues to insider information on national debt, funds, and futures... Thus, the money in his account was constantly generating more money. Liquidating it now meant huge losses.

"Are your ears deaf? Didn't I just say? The Wang family in the capital is a terrifying presence in the political arena, and not a trace of offense can be taken. What does losing money matter? It's better than losing your life. I'm not scaring you, the Wang family in the capital can make a provincial leader disappear without a trace, causing not even a ripple, as if they killed a dog!"

When Xiao Teng put it like this, the accountant stopped talking and immediately proceeded with the operation on Xiao Teng's account.

Since there was no fear of loss, the operation was very fast.

Within half an hour, the appropriation amount Chen Feng requested was gathered.

"Director Xiao, everything is done. What should I do next?"

The accountant asked softly.

"Transfer half of the money from my account to Deputy County Head Chen Feng."

Xiao Teng said seriously.

"What? Transfer half the money to Deputy County Head Chen Feng? Will Deputy County Head Chen Feng accept it?"

The accountant was stunned.

"You're still not experienced enough in the political arena. To tell you the truth, Chen Feng will definitely accept this huge sum. Firstly, Chen Feng has a background, so he can accept any amount of money. Secondly, Chen Feng is a person who is neither entirely good nor entirely evil. There are some monies Chen Feng won't accept, for example, the hard-earned money of ordinary people, Chen Feng definitely won't accept. But money from people like me, he will absolutely accept."

Xiao Teng said confidently.

"Alright then, I'll try with Chen Feng. If it fails, you can't blame me."

The accountant said softly.

"Don't worry, this will definitely succeed. Don't forget, when you go to Chen Feng, you must tell him that I will never support the Da Wang family's Miao cult in Jiu Miao County from now on."

Xiao Teng said very seriously.

"Director Xiao, I don't understand. Wasn't the whole thing caused by greed for money? How did it get related to the Da Wang family's Miao cult in Jiu Miao County?"

The accountant asked, confused.

"You don't need to understand. You just need to know that with your current level of political intelligence, it's best for you to just stay an accountant."

Xiao Teng replied with a smile.

After Xiao Teng said this, the accountant stopped asking.

The whole situation was becoming more and more complicated. Honestly, her intelligence was not enough. She would just do as she was told.

Leaving Xiao Teng's private room, the accountant found Chen Feng again.

"Deputy County Head Chen, Director Xiao said he wants to transfer half the money to you. Do you want it?"

The accountant asked directly.

"Yes, please transfer it to my overseas account."

After speaking, Chen Feng gave the accountant the account of Ye Meizi from the Japanese family.

The accountant was momentarily stunned.

Firstly,

Chen Feng actually dared to accept this huge sum.

Secondly, he dared to entrust the safekeeping of this huge sum to a foreign woman.

"Is there something you want to ask?"

Chen Feng asked with a smile.

The accountant was still too inexperienced in the ways of the world; everything was written on her face.

"May I ask?"

The accountant asked with a flushed face.

"You already know about the matters between me and Xiao Teng, so you're not an outsider anymore. Feel free to ask."

Chen Feng continued with a smile.

"Since you say so, I won't be polite. I just want to ask two questions. First, you gave me an impression of integrity, so how could you also accept money like them? Second, are you really confident about letting a foreign woman keep so much money?"

The accountant asked seriously.

Chen Feng took a deep breath and answered them one by one.

First, accepting money.

This question was easy to answer.

He was an honest official, true, but not a rigid and inflexible one.

A rigid and inflexible honest official could only stay at the bottom of the political arena for life and would be unable to help many ordinary people!

Therefore, to make great strides in the political arena and help more ordinary people, one's mind must be flexible, and one must accept money when it's appropriate.

Of course, when accepting money, not a trace of evidence should be left.

This is the vision of an honest official.

There are things to accept and things not to accept!

The hard-earned money of the common people must never be accepted.

Money from corrupt officials in the political arena is always welcome!

As for the second question, it was also very simple.

Ye Meizi from the Japanese family was his woman, and since she was his woman, he naturally trusted her infinitely.

Moreover, Ye Meizi was the daughter of a zaibatsu, and she truly had no covetousness for his assets.

"Deputy County Head Chen, to be honest, you are the most unusual person I have met in my many years in the political arena. If I say you are very righteous, no, if I say you are very evil, no, you are just hard to figure out! However, one thing is certain, you have a kind heart."

The accountant sighed.

"You flatter me. Alright, I've dealt with Xiao Teng, and I need to return to Jiu Miao County to handle the Da Wang family's Miao cult matters."

With that, Chen Feng immediately returned to Jiu Miao County.

"Deputy County Head Chen, how did you manage to get Nan Miao City to no longer support the Da Wang family's Miao cult?"

As soon as Chen Feng sat down, Mu Chi Wang Mu asked with emotion.

"Evil cannot triumph over good."

Chen Feng replied with a smile.

"Is it that simple?"

"Once you understand the way the political arena works, even the most difficult things become simple."

Chen Feng continued with a smile.

"Deputy County Head Chen, what do you plan to do about the Da Wang family next?"

Mu Chi Wang Mu tentatively asked.

"Annihilate them."

Chen Feng replied with a murderous look.

"Annihilate them? Isn't that too harsh?"

Mu Chi Wang Mu was stunned.

"When dealing with evil forces, you must be ruthless! Being merciful to evil forces is the greatest cruelty to good people. You are Miao, and you should know how many innocent Miao people the Da Wang family's Miao cult has killed over the years. If the Da Wang family is not annihilated, the wronged Miao people will not agree."

Chen Feng continued with a murderous look.

"Deputy County Head Chen, although the Da Wang family has lost the support of Nan Miao City, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse. If you relentlessly pursue them, what if they become desperate?"

Mu Chi Wang Mu asked with concern.
