If the case that happened in Bannong Villa could still make Zhou Jiyao calm down, but the Erdaohe demolition project was blocked and he could not stay abroad at all.

Because this large-scale project requires hundreds of billions of dollars to invest, every day of delay is a huge loss. Although a special group composed of governments coordinates the interests of the demolition households, the situation is complicated after all.

In addition, some people secretly fanned the flames and exposed Zhou Jiyao's collusion with officials and businessmen to infringe on the interests of the people. People were resentful for a while, and some demolition households were motivated to fight against the construction workers. Not only did they prevent the construction of the project, but they even injured the construction workers. Now they have sent people to occupy the engineering command center.

Although there was no large-scale commotion, the government working group was still worried about affecting stability. After all, stability is overwhelming at present, so construction can only be suspended, which made Zhou Jiyao a little worried and could only rush back from abroad.

However, after getting off the plane, Zhou Jiyao neither went to the company nor went home. Instead, he called Dai Jialang and asked him to drive Ouyang Juan directly to the airport.

Dai Jialang didn't expect that Zhou Jiyao would come back suddenly, and he didn't know why he hurriedly sent Ouyang Juan to the airport. Although Ouyang Juan had been in contact with Zhou Jiyao by phone, she was a little confused.

"Does he want to send me out?" Ouyang Juan said a little nervously while packing her things.

Dai Jialang hesitated: "Maybe he thinks this place is not safe, so he wants to change it for you."

Ouyang Juan complained: "Even this place is not safe, and I don't know if there is still a safe place. I hope to give birth to the child as soon as possible, otherwise I will always be so worried."

Dai Jialang snorted and said, "Even if you are born, it is not necessarily safe. Didn't Tang Wan's son be kidnapped?"

Ouyang Juan glared at Dai Jialang and said angrily: "Can you say something auspicious when you have a dog's mouth?"

Zhou Jiyao went abroad this time to follow the government delegation to inspect, so he only brought two entourages, one of his full-time drivers, and the other was a business manager of the company. However, Dai Jialang did not see these two entourages at the airport, only Zhou Jiyao.

"Do you know Zhoujia Town in Wudong County?" Zhou Jiyao got into the car and asked Dai Jialang.

Dai Jialang was stunned for a moment and said, "I have heard of it, but I haven't been there."

Zhou Jiyao said: "Let's go there now."

Ouyang Juan acted coquettishly and said, "Oh, why are you doing so far?"

Zhou Jiyao stroked Ouyang Juan's belly and smiled, "There is the closest to the sea and there is a sea view room. Don't you want to go out and relax?"

Ouyang Juan snorted: "What if I'm going to give birth?"

Zhou Jiyao said with a look of surprise: "What? Do you think it is the countryside? You will know when you get there. There are modern large hospitals everywhere. In fact, there are senior sanatoriums that are not as good as those in Nanzhao City. Even the provincial leaders have to stay there for a few days every year."

Although Ouyang Juan is Zhou Jiyao's mistress, Zhou Jiyao only talked about some irrelevant topics with her along the way, and did not mention a word about what happened in Bannong Villa. Ouyang Juan also understood the reason why she would not ask if she shouldn't ask.

Wudong County is about 300 kilometers away from Nanzhao City, but the expressway has been opened and it has arrived at its destination in less than three hours.

As Zhou Jiyao described, Zhoujia Town does not look like a small town, but rather like an antique town.

Although it is not as prosperous and bustling as Nanzhao City, the well-connected streets are flat and clean, and the buildings on both sides are almost all newly built and have a unique decorative style.

The most important thing is that this is a very green town. It looks like buildings are hidden among the green trees, which are particularly pleasing to the eye in the drizzle.

"This is my hometown." Zhou Jiyao said with emotion.

Dai Jialang had already learned about Zhou Jiyao's family history from Ji Wenlan, so he was not surprised. Instead, Ouyang Juan said in surprise: "Oh, it turns out that you are from here, the scenery is good."

Zhou Jiyao said proudly: "You have never seen what this place used to be. To put it bluntly, it is a small fishing village. Later, I invested a lot of money here to turn it into what it is today."

Dai Jialang smiled and said, "I heard that Shenzhen was also a small fishing village in the past, but now it has become a prosperous metropolis."

Zhou Jiyao sighed: "Yes, this is the power of capital. As long as you have money in your hands, nothing can be changed."

According to Zhou Jiyao's instructions, the car passed through the streets and crossed the entire town. Finally, it came to a lakeside, with a Gothic building next to it, almost all of which were built of stones, and a green grass at the entrance.

Several high-end cars were parked in the driveway. As soon as Dai Jialang's car stopped, a group of men and women came out of the gate, each of whom shook hands with Zhou Jiyao respectfully.

Dai Jialang was surprised to see Qi Fei and several senior executives of the company. Unexpectedly, they had already been waiting here. Obviously, they should have received an early notice from Zhou Jiyao.

However, there are two older women who are not as polite to Zhou Jiyao as others. Both women are at least over 60 years old.

One of them is fat and full of silver silk, while the other is thin but energetic and does not feel old.

They kept standing on the high steps, staring at Ouyang Juan. After everyone greeted Zhou Jiyao, the two women walked down the steps.

"Big sister, second sister, she is Xiaojuan, I will give her to you for the time being." Zhou Jiyao said.

The fat woman took Ouyang Juan's hand and smiled and said, "It's really a sign of growth. Don't worry, what she has in her belly is the seed of our Zhou family. We promise to keep her safe."

The thin woman snorted: "Zhoujia Town is not Nanzhao City. I want to see who dares to come here to play wildly."

Dai Jialang stood there after getting off the car. No one noticed him except Yu Houhong glanced at him. Obviously, everyone just regarded him as Zhou Jiyao's driver.

However, Dai Jialang's eyes had already scanned everyone present, and guessed that the two old women should be Zhou Jiyao's elder sisters Zhou Rumei and Zhou Ruju, and the young men should be Zhou Jiyao's sons and nephews, and the rest should have been associated with him.

It is said that Zhoujia Town is almost the world of Zhou Rumei and Zhou Ruju. The town government is just a decoration. Of course, all of this is attributed to Zhou Jiyao. He almost symbolizes the founder of this town, and even the provincial government officials often come here for a walk.

"Chairman, several major shareholders are already waiting upstairs." Yu Houhong walked to Zhou Jiyao and said in a low voice.

Zhou Jiyao waved his hand and said, "You all go upstairs and wait a while, I'll go up in a few minutes."

After saying that, he waved to Dai Jialang and said, "Come with me."

Zhou Jiyao's words immediately focused the eyes of a group of people on him. Although he was a little nervous, he still felt a little flattered and hurriedly followed the group of people into the house.

As soon as he entered the door, there was a huge living room, large enough to accommodate a hundred people dancing inside. Dai Jialang had no intention of looking around. He didn't know what Zhou Jiyao was anxious to say to him.

There was a small reception room downstairs. Dai Jialang followed Zhou Jiyao in. Zhou Jiyao sat behind a large desk as if he had arrived at his home, and took out a large cigar from the drawer and lit it. He waved at him and said, "Close the door."

Dai Jialang closed the door and stood there with a little fear and fear. Zhou Jiyao slowly sucked a few cigars, but his eyes kept looking at Dai Jialang, as if this was the first time we met. It was not until Dai Jialang was a little uncomfortable when he looked at him, and then he slowly said, "Sit down."

Dai Jialang walked to a chair next to the desk and sat down. Zhou Jiyao said, "These were basically relatives in my family. You have never seen them before. There will be a dinner party in the evening. You can come too. I will introduce them to you later."

Dai Jialang was a little flattered and said, "I didn't expect the chairman to have so many relatives. I've been with you for a long time. I didn't expect to see you before."

Zhou Jiyao was silent for a while and said, "If Nanzhao City is the battlefield for me to fight, then this is my base camp. Everyone must have their own roots no matter where they go. This is the roots of our Zhou family."

Dai Jialang nodded in a vague way, but he didn't say anything.

Zhou Jiyao sat upright and said, "From today on, Ouyang Juan has been given care to my two sisters, and she lives here until the child is born."

Dai Jialang pretended to be relieved and said as if he had taken off a heavy burden: "This place must be much safer than Nanzhao City. Since it is the chairman's elder sister, there will definitely be no problem."

Zhou Jiyao stared at Dai Jialang and asked, "What? You seem to feel relieved when you look like this?"

Dai Jialang smiled flatteringly and said, "It's really a bit suffocating when staying in the house all day."

Zhou Jiyao laughed dryly and said, "Why, I haven't found a chance to sleep with my girlfriend during this period?"

Dai Jialang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I haven't even seen each other before. Chairman, I don't mean that. I just like to run outside and don't like to stay in the house all day."

Zhou Jiyao nodded and said, "Young people don't like a constant life. Since Ouyang Juan no longer needs you, I'm going to give you an important job."

Dai Jialang hurriedly asked, "What's the job?"

Zhou Jiyao did not directly answer Dai Jialang's question, but asked: "You have been to Erdaohe before. Do you have any impression of that place?"

Dai Jialang was shocked because he found Xiaohu in a dilapidated building in Erdaohe based on Sun Qian's words. It was unclear why Zhou Jiyao suddenly mentioned this place.

"I don't have any deep impressions. It's just a mess." Dai Jialang said carefully.
