Chapter 365, Episode 0394: Ye Zhenwen's True Purpose
After Rong Siqin and Ye Zhenxing got married, Rong Siqin would often go to the company when he was at work. At first, when the receptionist asked her who she was looking for, she said she was looking for the president.

Ye Zhenxing was already trusted by him at that time, and he was carefully cultivating him, arranging for him to work in the office next to the president's office.

The couple had already agreed that when the receptionist called the ninth floor to inquire, the person who answered the phone was Ye Zhenxing, who was already waiting there.

After one, two, and three times, with the couple's careful guidance, when Rong Siqin went to the company again, the reception staff and security guards no longer stopped her, and they implicitly accepted that she was the president's wife.

Ye Zhenwen is a serious person and a workaholic. No one in the company dares to talk about these gossips in front of him. Ye Zhenxing and his wife dared to do so because of this.

Lin Yiwen: "Big brother, why did second brother and the others do this?"

I don't understand, I really don't understand.

Ye Zhenwen could no longer bear it and smacked her on the head. "Go back and think about it carefully."

"Oh." Ye Yiwen covered her forehead, looking aggrieved.

Ye Zhenwen ignored her and poured another cup of tea for Lin Yuexi and her husband, who were engrossed in watching the show. Then he frankly revealed the true purpose of his trip.

"Academician Lin, I wonder if I would have the honor of cooperating with Yuexi Group?"

Lin Yuexi was stunned. Cooperation? Why would Yuexi Group want to cooperate with her?
Does she think that just because her name is Yuexi, she can decide things for the group?

Seeing his wife's terribly bewildered expression, Huo Han, who usually hides all his emotions with a poker face in public, almost lost control of his expression.

"I don't interfere in the affairs of Yuexi Group, and I never ask about them," Lin Yuexi said truthfully. As for whether the other party believed her or not, she didn't care.

Ye Zhenwen: "Academician Lin, please don't refuse yet. Here's the thing: Beiji has discovered another oil field, but that oil field doesn't actually belong to Beiji."

Lin Yuexi and Huo Han immediately understood and said in unison, "Also in the desert?"

Ye Zhenwen nodded helplessly and explained the whole story to them.

With the technical support of the state, although Shar had some doubts and often sent people to the desert to check, the matter of the rare minerals was well concealed, and the mining activities had ended at the beginning of this year.

It wasn't a very big mine to begin with, but with the technological support of a major power, it'll be completely mined out in a few years!

The development of North Korea today is so different from what it used to be that it's like a completely different country. Much of the land has been put to use, the soil quality has been improved to grow crops, factories have been built, and the lives of the people have improved a lot.

For Beiji, however, that mine was their biggest source of income. Both the country and the people were uncertain about the future once the mining ended.

Then a few young people who had studied in our country for a few years and returned home, with boundless courage, carried their equipment and went into the desert. In most people's eyes, the desert is almost synonymous with barrenness and dead ends, but for the Beiji people who discovered a mine on the edge of the desert and that mine changed the lives of people all over the country, the desert is a blessed land with a treasure trove of knowledge.

No one expected that these young people would actually find a treasure, an oil field with amazing underground reserves. It was discovered by accident; one of the young men accidentally fell into a deep fissure in the ground, where oil had seeped to the surface.

Ye Zhenwen and his team were certainly happy, but then a problem arose: the place where the oil field was discovered was very close to the Kingdom of Shar, or even within Shar's territory. However, the border between the two countries was ambiguous, so it could be said that the area was a common zone.

However, if you say that's North Ji's territory, Shar could definitely send troops immediately.

So, for now, we can only think about mining, and we even have to worry that Shar will also discover that oil field, since there's a not-so-wide but over 800-meter-deep fissure in the ground there.

Moreover, this wealth is far greater than that small mine before; who wouldn't be envious?

It's right next to us!
Ye Zhenwen was green with envy, so much so that his eyes were almost crossed. However, Ye Zhenwen was a rational person. He knew that small Beiji couldn't take over this oil field, and even if it did, it wouldn't be able to hold onto it.

Fortunately, he has the backing of the state, so naturally, this kind of thing has to be reported.

Do you think we could refuse such a good thing? It's been offered to us on its own initiative. Even landlords don't have much surplus grain. It's not easy to have a chance to generate income. It would be foolish to turn it down.

Through the above-mentioned operations, the ownership of that oil field fell to the Moonrise Group. That's right, it didn't belong to any country; rather, the Moonrise Group bought the entire desert and Gobi region between the two countries.

One side had no idea what was in the desert, while the other side was willing to sell or give it away at a loss, and the matter proceeded smoothly.

Troops and technical personnel have already been dispatched there. Once the survey is completed, mining will begin.

Lin Yuexi and Huo Han still didn't understand what he wanted to do.

“Originally, Beiji had an agreement with the higher authorities that Beiji people would be given preferential treatment when the oil field was being developed. However, I heard recently that Yuexi Group was planning to recruit people from China for the development and was not planning to use Beiji people.”

Lin Yuexi and Huo Han's expressions turned cold.

Huo Han asked, "Is the news true?"

Ye Zhenwen nodded solemnly, “Minister Liu retired due to illness a while ago, and the newly appointed Minister Hao and Ye’s family, to be precise, have a conflict with me. That contract was signed by the former minister, and not long after it was signed, the former minister fell ill.”

Don't even mention the contract or anything like that; there's a lot of room for manipulation inside. The difference between those who support it and those who oppose it is like night and day, and it's not impossible for a contract to be voided for any reason.

Ye Zhenwen had worked with Minister Liu for many years, and he was also good at interpersonal relationships, maintaining good relationships with those around Minister Liu.

Zuo Zhongyi, the former secretary to Minister Liu and now section chief, informed Ye Zhenwen after learning that Minister He had already discussed with the person in charge of the oil field at Yuexi Group about recruiting people domestically first.

It was also a coincidence that the person in charge of the oil field at Yuexi Group was Lin Yuexi's fourth uncle, Leng Bai. Ye Zhenwen originally planned to go to Leng Bai, but he just happened to run into Lin Yuexi.

He knew that Lin Yuexi didn't care about the affairs of Yuexi Group, but he also knew that Lin Yuexi was practically the only one who could make decisions in Yuexi Group, because the existence of Yuexi Group was because of her.

She doesn't concern herself with the Yuexi Group because she's busy with research and doesn't have time for it.

"Academician Lin, the people of Beiji need this job."

Ye Zhenwen did not mention anything that might make people uncomfortable, such as that the oil field was discovered by Beiji people; he simply stated the demands of Beiji people.

They don't have big demands; they just want a job, a stable income, something to look forward to in life, and hope for survival.

Lin Yuexi fell silent.

Her silence made Ye Zhenwen feel uneasy, and even Ye Yiwen, who was standing next to her and didn't quite understand what was going on, was watching her nervously.

Huo Han remained seated expressionless, neither disturbing Lin Yuexi's thoughts nor interfering with her decision.

About two minutes later, when Ye Zhenwen's back was soaked and water stains were visible, Lin Yuexi finally spoke:

“This is not something I should normally get involved in, but if a contract has already been signed and someone is trying to break it for personal reasons, I will not allow the group bearing my name to lose face internationally, at least not while I am alive.”

Babies, I'm taking a day off tomorrow!
