Reborn in 95, I unearthed a gold mine after the family split up.

Chapter 240 is actually like this

Mr. Li, standing nearby, smiled broadly and said, "Boss, once Zhang Dong really paves the way with money, I wonder how embarrassed this kid will be this time."

"I'm curious to see if this guy can still smile like before after being exposed for giving huge sums of money to local officials."

The staff of Tiancheng Real Estate chatted and laughed as they entered the municipal government conference hall.

But as soon as they entered, they spotted Zhang Dong on the stage.

At this moment, Zhang Dongzheng had his arms crossed over his shoulders and a smile on his face.

Seeing the other party's expression, the group of senior executives from Tiancheng Real Estate, including Lin Zicheng, who were chatting and laughing, were all extremely surprised.

Lin Zicheng, who was walking ahead, turned around in shock and asked his subordinate, "What's going on? Why does this kid still have that expression even now?"

Contrary to his previous expectations, Lin Zicheng could no longer suppress his doubts.

One of the vice presidents cursed out, "Damn, I think this kid is just faking it."

"I have to say, this kid is really good at pretending. His acting skills are top-notch. The press conference is about to start, and he can still be so calm and composed."

"Hey, I know what's going on," a fat subordinate said mysteriously.

Lin Zicheng frowned: "Then tell me quickly, what exactly happened?"

Hearing his subordinates whispering amongst themselves, eager to see Zhang Dong's expression, Lin Zicheng was also filled with anticipation. He felt that even if Zhang Dong was confident, he probably wouldn't be as smiling as he had been when he met him that day.

But when he suddenly entered the municipal government conference hall, he was shocked to see Zhang Dong standing on the stage with a smile on his face.

"Boss, there was a car accident before. A director of the security bureau was handling the traffic problem on the spot. This official had a smile on his face the whole time, and everyone called him 'Smiling Brother'."

"As a result, the bureau chief was forced to step down because of the smiling expression on his face at the scene of the car accident."

"I only found out later that this was the same expression she had when attending a relative's funeral."

Lin Zicheng immediately understood what his subordinate meant: "You mean, the reason this kid has a smile on his face is because he's born with it, is that what you mean?"

The fat man who had spoken nodded eagerly.

"Boss, this is the only reason I can think of to explain his expression. Otherwise, there's no way to explain why this kid is so strange."

His subordinate's words made a lot of sense, and Lin Zicheng nodded slightly.

"That's right, it seems so. But whatever his expression, I want to hear the truth. Whether he's crying or laughing is irrelevant..."

"Yes, yes, we came here today to find out the truth of the matter and the final outcome."

"By then, the land's function will definitely be changed back to commercial use. As long as it's put out to public bidding, victory will surely be ours, hehe..."

After Lin Zicheng and his group entered, they found seats and sat down, eagerly awaiting the start of the reception.

A dozen minutes later, the leaders of the municipal party committee and government, as well as members of the inspection team from the provincial capital, were all seated on the rostrum.

Zhang Dong was also arranged to sit on the dais.

At this moment, Lin Zicheng's men were once again filled with confusion and bewilderment.

"Boss, what's going on? Why is this kid sitting on the stage? What qualifications does he have?"

Lin Zicheng, who was full of expectations, had not thought of this. After his subordinate reminded him, he came to his senses and suddenly felt that the matter was indeed somewhat surreal.

With his brows furrowed, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Yeah, if this kid was bribing and giving gifts to the city's top leaders, how come he was arranged to sit on the dais after the investigation?"

"Is Mr. Lin Zicheng, the owner of Tiancheng Real Estate, present?"

Just as I was filled with doubt, I heard the staff on stage starting to look for Lin Zicheng.

This surprised Lin Zicheng's men even more.

"Boss, the staff at the press conference are looking for you. It looks like they want you to go on stage."

Lin Zicheng had just heard the staff on stage calling his name, but for a moment he was caught off guard.

Even after his subordinates reminded him, Lin Zicheng was still somewhat confused.

"Are you hallucinating? Why are the staff calling me up on stage? What's going on?"

One of the subordinates sneered, "Needless to say, they want you, boss, to go on stage and witness this moment with your own eyes. Otherwise, what other explanation is there?"

After his subordinate's explanation, Lin Zicheng felt that it was indeed the case, so he stood up and walked towards the podium.

The staff smiled when they saw Lin Zicheng appear.

"Mr. Lin, our Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has already received your report. We take it very seriously and have dispatched a joint investigation team to investigate and understand the issues you raised. Next, it will be time for the city's main leaders to clarify the facts..."

Upon hearing this explanation from the staff, Lin Zicheng realized that the staff at the press conference were all members of the provincial discipline inspection commission's investigation team.

It seems his subordinate guessed correctly; the provincial discipline inspection commission staff asked him to come up on stage so that he could witness firsthand how this matter would ultimately be handled.

"Distinguished leaders and guests, we are holding this press conference here today because our municipal party committee and government want to clarify a fact in public."

"This matter involves the handling of a commercial land plot near the university town."

"Originally, that piece of land was designated for commercial use, and the municipal government intended to use it for commercial purposes. The reason for changing the land's use was this..."

Zhang Dong noticed that the first person to speak was the deputy mayor he had met before.

At this moment, he spoke eloquently, explaining the truth to everyone who had come to attend the press conference...

After hearing the deputy mayor finish explaining the situation, Lin Zicheng, who was standing to the side, was stunned and his mouth was agape in shock.

"What? That's how it turned out? Zhang Dong successfully persuaded the relevant city leaders, which is why the land's function was changed?"

Seeing the shocked look on Lin Zicheng's face, Zhang Dong smiled faintly.

"Mr. Lin, you still don't believe me? Then take a look. These are the professional drawings that the design institute created for the construction of the school."

“Mr. Lin, things are not as you suspect, there is no underhanded dealing involved.”

"However, we did acquire that land."

"Our purpose in acquiring that land is not for real estate development, but to build a computer science college as a public service facility to cultivate a large number of professionals for society..."

"Is that so?"

"how come?"
