Chapter 135 [Seeing the Light of Day Again]

Chu Yanran said with tears in her eyes: "As long as he comes back safely, I will not behave with him in the future, he will do whatever he likes..."

Qin Qing and Chu Yanran were also thinking about it. If Zhang Yang heard the two of them at this moment, he would be so happy that he would jump up and cheer loudly.

The rescue of Zhang Yang has become a major news in Jiangcheng City. TV stations, radio stations, and newspapers have all noticed this incident, and many reporters have also come to the scene.

After a daytime excavation, at 6 o'clock the next afternoon, I finally dug the giant rock that blocked the entrance of the cave. As long as I remove the huge rock, I should be able to find Zhang Yang. However, new problems are placed in front of them. The excavation has been carried out very deeply. In order to prevent the collapse incident from happening again, corresponding reinforcement must be carried out. Moreover, this huge rock is too large, and it is difficult to remove it with manpower alone.

The final solution was to drill hole blasting. Relevant blasting experts were invited. Through on-site observation, the possibility of collapse again after blasting was very high, and it was possible to damage the underground palace under the pagoda. Therefore, two different opinions arose. In the end, Li Changyu made a decision. If the passage was not cleared in time, he would probably be suffocated to death inside, and there would be at least a glimmer of life for the blasting. As for the possibility of damaging the underground palace, there is no more important than human life.

Zhang Yang realized from the shock of the stone that the rescue team was already outside. He was surprised and happy. It seemed that the road was always clear, and God had not completely given up on him. He also understood that such a large stone could not be removed simply. Now his destiny is in the hands of the rescue team, and the only thing he could do was wait.

After more than an hour of hard work, the rescue team finally got their eyes on the boulder. Although they knew that Zhang Yang could not hear their voices inside, they still made routine calls to remind Zhang Yang to be farther away from the boulder.

Zhang Yang was completely isolated from the world inside. When the guy heard nothing outside, he walked towards the huge rock curiously. After waiting for a while, there was still no movement. Zhang Yang was really anxious. He was about to be trapped in this dark cave for a day and a night. Even if he was very skilled in martial arts, he could not just waste it. He had not been able to get in the drip of water for a whole day, and his temperament became a little anxious. He shouted loudly: "What's going on? Keep going!"

Just when Zhang Yang was uneasy, the huge rock was detonated. After a dull loud noise, the narrow underground space began to shake, and the broken stones flew everywhere, and the soil above his head also fell. Zhang Daren was buried by the falling soil and stones without having time to react.

After the smoke of gunpowder, two firefighters rushed to the scene first. The boulder had been successfully crushed. The explosion was controlled perfectly and did not cause an unexpected collapse. However, they did not see the shadow of Zhang Daren from the scene. The two firefighters took a step forward, dispelling the smoke with their hands while shouting: "Is anyone there?"

After a while, I heard a weak voice saying, "Damn, you are planning to bury me alive!"

Zhang Daguanren climbed out of the soil and sand and stones with difficulty. Fortunately, he had strong ability to resist attacks. If it were someone else, the impact of the explosion and small stones flying out could no longer bear it.

When Zhang Daguanren crawled out of the crypt in a mess, deafening cheers came from the scene. Chu Yanran separated the crowd and rushed out desperately, throwing into Zhang Yang's arms with tears in her eyes. Zhang Daguanren was like a mud monkey, holding her soft jade and warm in her arms, and said softly: "Silly girl, don't cry, am I back!" His eyes saw Qin Qing in the distance, and there was also crystal tears in Qin Qing's beautiful eyes. She showed a hint of relief, nodded gently, and then turned around and disappeared outside the crowd.

Several leaders who were in charge of the scene came over. Li Changyu felt relieved when he saw that Zhang Yang was fine and smiled and said, "Zhang Yang, you will be in the limelight wherever you go."

Zhang Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I don't want to show this kind of limelight! That's right... TV, newspaper, etc., let's not go to it!"

Li Changyu looked around and said, "I'm afraid you can't help it!"

Qiu Changzai, director of the Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau, came over and said, "Director Zhang, what exactly is there?"

Zhang Yang thought about it and said mysteriously: "It's all treasures. I think it's hard for Nanlin Temple to be famous this time!"

Qiu Chang's eyes were glowing excitedly.

At this time, seven or eight reporters had already surrounded Zhang Yang and wanted to interview Zhang Yang. Li Changyu signaled the staff to stop the reporter and explained with a smile: "In view of the fact that the rescued person was frightened, we must send him to the hospital immediately. Please cooperate with all the friends from the press!"

Of course, Zhang Yang would not go to the hospital. He took a shower in a nearby hotel, changed into clean clothes, and asked Chu Yanran to drive him back to his rental residence in Yayun Lake. After experiencing this day and night, Zhang Daguanren was also very tired. When he returned home, he lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.

Chu Yanran looked at Zhang Yang's handsome and peaceful face, and a warmth appeared in her heart. She remembered that Zhang Yang had not eaten, so she took his keys and went out to buy some food. When she drove out of the community, she remembered Qin Qing. Chu Yanran dialed Qin Qing's number.

At this time, Qin Qing had returned to her home. She did not expect Chu Yanran to call her and acted extremely calmly: "Yanran!"

"Sister Qing, I have sent him back. He is asleep. Do you want to come and see him?"

Qin Qing hesitated for a moment, but still politely rejected Chu Yanran's invitation: "I have arrived in Chunyang. There is still a meeting to open tomorrow, so I can't go there. Take good care of him..." After hanging up the phone, Qin Qing slowly closed his eyes, but an unspeakable loss and loneliness arose in her heart. She clearly realized that she was not the most suitable person to appear next to Zhang Yang. Chu Yanran was, maybe the person next to Zhang Yang should be her. But deep down she could no longer give up Zhang Yang. She understood her feelings, and this love had been deeply planted in her heart, making her unable to extricate herself for the rest of her life.

It was already nine:30 the next morning when Zhang Yang woke up. He sat up from the bed in a daze. He smelled the tempting fragrance from the kitchen. He got up and put on his slippers and walked out. He saw Chu Yanran wearing a pink apron and was very busy in the kitchen. Zhang Yang walked over and spread his arms to hug Chu Yanran from behind. Chu Yanran was startled by him and spat: "Don't mess around, go and take a shower, prepare hot water for you, hurry up, breakfast will be ready soon!"

An indescribable warmth was cleansed in Zhang Yang's heart. He nodded, kissed Chu Yanran's pretty face before leaving.

Chu Yanran made Western-style breakfasts, toast, fried poached eggs, and squeezed juice. In order to make this breakfast, she not only bought ingredients, but also specially bought toasters, frying pans, and juicers.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Does it be so troublesome? Wouldn't it be convenient for us to go out to eat!"

Chu Yanran said coquettishly: "Can the meaning be the same? The food cooked outside is comparable to what I cooked with my own hands?" She pushed Zhang Yang to the dining table and sat down.

"It smells so good!" Zhang Yang praised sincerely.

Chu Yanran personally applied cheese to him on the bread and handed it to him. Looking at the considerate Chu Yanran, Zhang Yang felt an undescriptive happiness, but this guy was still as greedy as ever. A scene of beautiful women surrounding him, laughing and laughing.

"What are you thinking?" Chu Yanran asked softly.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I was thinking, why is the fucking happy I am so happy?"

Chu Yanran smiled and said, "Of course you are happy, I love you so much!" She paused and said, "Sister Qing loves you so much!"

This was a bit wrong. Zhang Daren was almost choked by her words, picked up the juice and took a big sip: "Why... why did you sleep last night?"

Chu Yanran pointed to the sofa in the living room and said, "I'll stay there all night."

Zhang Yang regretted, "I am such a fool. I missed a great opportunity to steal fragrance and jade."

Chu Yanran whispered: "Actually, the moment you climbed up from the cave, I wanted to give you everything."

The eyes shine brightly.

But Chu Yanran's tone changed again: "I have calmed down now and found that I still have to hold my position. You are a Communist Party member and a state cadre. This small difficulty can be overcome by just enduring it."

Zhang Yang sighed and said, "What if I can't stand it anymore?"

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell Sister Qing about your hooligan behavior?" Chu Yanran immediately grasped Zhang Yang's vital point.

Zhang Daren was in a state of air conditioning. Mom, Qin Qing wouldn't have signed an offensive and defensive alliance with Chu Yanran, right? If the two of them reached a tacit understanding, they would probably be sad in the future.

"It's time to read the news!" Chu Yanran walked over and turned on the TV.

Jiangcheng News is playing news clips of rescuing Zhang Yang, and Zhang Daren's attention was also attracted. He wanted to see if he looked handsome when he was on TV, but immediately found that only a few blurry shots of him flashed on the news. He heard the broadcaster's words and emotional broadcast report: "The night before yesterday, a young cadre of the Tourism Bureau accidentally fell into a cave collapsed at the Nanlin Temple construction site. Leaders at all levels in our city showed strong attention to this matter. Executive Vice Mayor Li Changyu personally came to the front line of rescue to command. Under his command, under the joint efforts of firefighters and the general public, after twenty-four hours, the young cadre was finally successfully rescued. This is a manifestation of the cohesion of our party, a manifestation of the unity of our military and civilians, this is..."

Zhang Yang couldn't listen anymore. After coordinating the news, he had nothing to do with him. He fell into the cave and actually achieved Li Changyu's political achievements. On the other hand, he thought that the benefits made Li Changyu better than others. After all, he was a fat man who did not flow into the field of outsiders. After this incident, Deputy Mayor Li's position in the hearts of the people in Jiangcheng will probably reach a new level.

Chu Yanran couldn't help laughing when she heard a young cadre in the Tourism Bureau. Zhang Yang never showed her face from beginning to end. She knew that Zhang Yang's temperament was particularly fond of showing off, and she would definitely be disappointed now.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "The news column is all for politics, hehe, how naughty it is like me."

Chu Yanran said, "By the way, you haven't told me yet, what's underneath?"

"The underground palace is full of cultural relics!"

When Zhang Yang said this, he did not expect that at the archaeological site of the Fo Guang Pagoda underground palace of Nanlin Temple, a world-renowned event was happening. After the archaeological team entered, one cultural relics after another were found in the underground palace. According to the contents of the inscription, it was known that the Buddha Light Pagoda was of great origin. This pagoda was one of the nineteen pagodas established by Ashoka in China. King Ashoka unified India in the 3rd century BC. After years of wars and established the first empire in Indian history, he began to vigorously promote Buddhism in order to kill in the war of salvation. For this reason, Ashoka sent a large number of monks and believers abroad to promote mercy and non-violence, and vigorously promoted Buddhism. He spent a huge amount of money to build several pagodas around the world for people to respect the Buddha. According to legend, there are 19 pagodas distributed in China, and it is one of them.

Based on the information currently available, this Nanlin Temple Buddha Light Pagoda is obviously the second discovered after the Famen Temple Pagoda.

The underground palace is divided into three rooms, the middle and the back. The front room is the smallest. The white marble pagoda inside is the Ashoka Pagoda from India, where jade relics are found.

There is also a jade relic that is exactly the same in the white marble spiritual tent in the middle room. These two imitation relics have caused great shock to the archaeological world in Jiangcheng. The almost identical underground palace structure, almost the same pagoda and spiritual tent have shown that this may be the second place to collect the true body of Buddha bones after Famen Temple. If Buddha bones can be found in the underground palace, then both the meaning in the archaeological world and the meaning in the Buddhist world will be explosive.

The archaeological team immediately reported the matter to the Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau. Qiu Changzai, who had been staying at the scene, also knew that the matter was extraordinary. He informed the leaders of the municipal party committee overnight and reported the matter to the State Administration of Cultural Relics.

And Zhang Yang became the discoverer of this underground palace in a daze.

When Zhang Yang and Chu Yanran went out at noon, there was news that the Buddha's relics appeared in Nanlin Temple were already circulating in the streets and alleys of Jiangcheng. The news was full of mystery, and it instantly cast a mysterious veil on the heavy industrial city of Jiangcheng.

Lin Xiu, who came to Jingshan City to meet with Chu Yanran, heard the news as soon as she arrived. She keenly captured the business opportunities. If the news of the Buddha's relics were true, it would inevitably cause a sensational effect in China. Putting aside tourists, the number of believers who came from all directions to worship Buddha's bones was an unpredictable number.

Because Zhang Yang went to attend an emergency meeting, Chu Yanran went to see Lin Xiu alone.

Lin Xiu and Chu Yanran exchanged a few greetings, directly leading the topic to the Buddha's relics.

Chu Yanran said: "Zhang Yang just went to the city for a meeting. It was probably because of this matter. This time, he was a blessing in disguise and actually discovered an underground palace by chance."

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "He has always been lucky. If the Buddha's relics are true, there is great potential for the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area this time!"

Lin Xiu is not the only one who holds this view.

The discovery of Buddha's relics in the underground palace of the Buddha Light Tower has shocked the leadership of the entire Jiangcheng. As the direct instigator and commander of this matter, Li Changyu has already seized the initiative in the whole matter. Archaeological work is still in full swing. According to the current feedback, no Buddha bones have been found. Three jade relics have been found, but they are all imitations. Although they are both relics, their meanings are vastly different.

The most exciting person at the meeting was Qiu Changzai, Director of the Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau. His voice trembled when he spoke: "I dare to conclude that this is the largest discovery in the archaeological history of Jiangcheng so far. It has a profound impact in Pinghai and China! I suggest that we should build a Buddhist cultural holy place in Jiangcheng around the underground palace and build the first brand of Jiangcheng tourism. Our Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau will devote all our efforts to this matter, I..."

Li Changyu smiled and said, "Old Qiu, your point of view coincides with Xiao Zhang!" This sentence was tactful, but everyone present could hear it. Li Changyu said that you, Qiu Chang, are picking people at Yahui. Zhang Yang first proposed to build the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area. The actual executor is also someone else. When you fall into the cave, you, Qiu Chang, find the underground palace. Why are you, Qiu Chang, competing with them?

Fan Boxi, secretary of the Wenyuan District Party Committee, sat there with a calm expression, and was extremely happy. No matter who was the limelight, whether Nanlin Temple ended up with the Tourism Bureau or the Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau, Nanlin Temple, the underground palace, and the ancient city walls are all on the territory of my Wenyuan District. The more prosperous you make, the more benefits I will benefit from. You have political achievements and I have political achievements. I will not compete with you for the limelight.

Jia Jingyan, director of the Tourism Bureau, used to want to remain calm, but now he can't calm down. Zhang Yang has only been here for more than a month. Look at his three tricks, numbness, that beautiful, and this report card is dazzling! Of course, Jia Jingyan attributed all this to Zhang Yang's good luck, and also believed that it was inseparable from the strong support of Vice Mayor Li Changyu. Jia Jingyan knew in his heart that the Tourism Bureau had changed quietly after Zhang Yang arrived, and its position among the functional departments of Jiangcheng City was also

It is becoming more and more important. What just happened has shown that the Tourism Bureau will be above the Garden and Cultural Relics Bureau. Li Changyu is obviously deliberately confusing the concepts of several functional departments and giving Zhang Yang greater power. Whether he or several other members of the preparatory team are undoubtedly playing the role of accompanying the prince to study. Jia Jingyan has long had no ambitions and ambitions. If he thinks through the truth, he will be at ease. He is just a mess. As long as Zhang Yang doesn't make any big mistakes, he will still be a director of his own.

Li Changyu said: "The experts from the State Administration of Cultural Relics will arrive in Jiangcheng in the next two days. As long as you discover the Buddha's relics in Nanlin Temple, it will inevitably shock the country and abroad. There are many versions of legends now. I hope that before the archaeological results are clear, you must be responsible for everything you say and do in every word you say, and do not have a negative impact on Jiangcheng." He turned to Qiu Changzai and said: "Lao Qiu, you are responsible for the reception work of relevant experts of the State Administration of Cultural Relics. The progress and specific affairs of the relevant projects will be left to Zhang Yang!" He smiled and said to Zhang Yang: "Xiao Zhang, you are young and should take on more work. If I squeeze you like this, you will not have any objection, right?"

Zhang Yang felt so comfortable, Lao Li was really good enough, which was equivalent to a public announcement that Zhang Yang had the final say in the preparation and construction of the scenic spot and no one could get in.

Fan Bo, secretary of Wenyuan District Party Committee, smiled and said: "Young cadres should take the initiative to take the initiative to take the lead. Xiao Zhang did a good job. If he hadn't been brave enough to explore, we wouldn't have discovered that underground palace, right?"

Everyone laughed at the same time.

Fan Boxi said again: "No matter whether the Buddha's relics are really in the underground palace, after this incident, the reputation of Nanlin Temple must be spread. The construction of the scenic spot has become more urgent. If you don't seize such a good opportunity, it is a loss to our Wenyuan District and the entire Jiangcheng. However, if you want to build a scenic spot, you need a large amount of funds to inject. I think the investment in the scenic spot may exceed the budget. Our district lists the construction of the scenic spot as one of the three major key points in 1993, but the finances in the district are very tight, and it is in demolition and compensation.

On the issue, the district has made the best efforts. Several leaders in our district held an emergency meeting and decided to invest another 2 million yuan in the construction of the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area." His words showed Wenyuan District's full support for the construction of the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area, and also clarified the current actual situation. Everyone knew that the 2 million yuan was just a drop in the bucket for the construction of the entire scenic area. Fan Boxi took the initiative to propose that it was also about advancing and retreating, and clearly told Li Changyu that Wenyuan District's support for the construction of the scenic area can only reach this level.

Li Changyu smiled and said, "Zhang Yang, you used to work as the director of the investment promotion office in Chunyang. Do you have the confidence to attract financial investment for the scenic spot this time?"

Zhang Yang corrected it seriously: "Deputy Director!" with one sentence made everyone present laugh.

Li Changyu laughed and said, "I don't care whether you are the deputy director or the official director. As long as you can complete this task beautifully, you will be a good cadre of the Party and a capable cadre!"

Zhang Yang said: "Mayor Li, I am now the director of the Market Development Department of the Tourism Bureau. This investment promotion seems to be a little uncoordinated with me. Do you say that I am going to attract investment? Is it a bit unreasonable? Is it not convincing to say it out loud, right?"

Everyone understood that this guy was openly seeking an official position?

Li Changyu smiled on his face, but he cursed in his heart, "You guy, you just became the director of the Market Development Department of the Tourism Bureau for a few days? You haven't achieved any results yet, what? You are anxious to get promoted. Are you obviously asking others to say that I am nepotism? But then I thought about it and gave him a lot of power. Just relying on the director of the Market Development Department of the Tourism Bureau, it seems that you can't hold back your position. You should also give him one. He smiled and said, "Zhang Yang, your enthusiasm for doing work is worthy of recognition. We have considered this matter. As for now, your main job is to implement the construction of the entire Nanlin Temple Scenic Area, and to effectively arrest it, so that the Nanlin Temple Scenic Area project will be fully launched as soon as possible. In terms of funds, you can solve it as soon as possible. I believe you have this ability."

When this sentence is said, not many people envy Zhang Yang's good life. The 200 million yuan capital is paralyzed, and they should be easily transformed. If there is no state investment and relying on personal abilities, no one of them dares to make a promise.

Li Changyu's words no longer gave Zhang Yang any room for maneuver. He understood Zhang Yang's temperament and his abilities. The more he put pressure on him, the more he could turn pressure into motivation.

After the meeting, Zhang Yang found Li Changyu alone. When the two were alone, they naturally didn’t have so many polite words. Zhang Yang said bluntly: “Two million, now it’s less than ten million yuan in investment. Do you want me to rob the bank?”

Li Changyu said: "Jiangcheng's finances are very difficult. If it depends on the city's financial allocation, anyone can command the construction of scenic spots and anyone can build them. What can you do?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I knew for a long time that things that are not difficult will not fall on me."
To be continued...
