In name only: In the name of Zhao Mengsheng's son!

Meanwhile, Sha Ruijin and Tian Guofu also arrived in Lüzhou. Yi Xuexi started to berate the Zhao family. In his eyes, there was no such thing as promotion, only the idea of ​​demolishing the food city on Crescent Lake!

Ultimately, Yi Xuexi simply couldn't stand the way these high-ranking officials and dignitaries amassed wealth, which is why he remained a division-level official for over twenty years! In all those years, Li Dakang, who was with him back then, focused on flexibility and had already risen to the rank of vice-minister. That's the difference.

Yi Xuexi can be considered a good official, but he is not a grateful person. Tian Guofu can be said to be one of his mentors, but he added a comment later.

"If I'm going to supervise Li Dakang, then who will supervise Sha Ruijin?"

This left Tian Guofu completely bewildered. At that moment, Tian Guofu realized that Zhao Lichun was truly a good secretary.

Tian Guofu: You really deserve to be unable to get up there!!!

Tian Guofu, who woke up in the middle of the night: No!! Is he sick?!

Tian Guofu, upon waking up in the morning: Secretary Lichun is still kind-hearted! What a generous person, promoting him to the position of full-fledged department head!!

"Was this food court approved by Gao Yuliang, not Li Dakang?"

Sha Ruijin was somewhat surprised. He thought that Li Dakang had been Zhao Lichun's secretary for five years, so how could Li Dakang restrain himself from approving this?

"There's a saying that Gao Yuliang used the approval of this food court as a deal to get into the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, and since Gao Yuliang, it's become the norm for the Party Secretary of Luzhou City to enter the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee!"

Yi Xuexi was just telling the truth. To be honest, how many officials in Handong couldn't see this? It's a transaction of money and power!

However, Sha Ruijin's attitude towards Li Dakang is now somewhat ambiguous. He feels that Li Dakang is a bit cold-hearted. Zhao Lichun, who promoted you, wants you to do a favor, and you don't help him. He feels that Li Dakang is a bit ungrateful.

However, he also felt that Li Dakang was a decent person. In any case, those were his two opinions. As for giving Li Dakang an important position, Sha Ruijin had never considered it! Originally, he wanted to use the Sha-Li pairing to tempt Li Dakang, but Zhao Zhongxin came, so he could no longer say that. However, Li Dakang still came to him eagerly to pledge his loyalty.

So although Sha Ruijin wanted to use Li Dakang, he didn't think much of him. He was a disloyal and two-faced person who was only suitable to be used as a tool!

Because Sha Ruijin also dislikes people like Li Dakang. People who cherish their reputation are usually not dragged up by others!

"Tell me your opinion on Li Dakang!"

Sha Ruijin thought that EasyLearning was a good tool, and he would use it to restrain Li Dakang.

Meanwhile, Zhao Ruilong was thinking of currying favor with Zhao Zhongxin again, so he called Zhao Zhongxin again!

"Boss! Zhao Ruilong is calling!"

Liu Kun walked over and said to Zhao Zhongxin, who glanced at him and replied, "!"

"You take it, and say what you think!"

"Okay! Hey!"

Liu Kun nodded and answered the phone. When Zhao Ruilong heard that it wasn't Zhao Zhongxin's voice, but his secretary's, he quickly said, "!"

"Secretary Liu, right? I'm looking for Executive Director Zhao, he..."

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhao, the executive director is in a meeting right now. Just tell me what's on your mind!"

Liu Kun interrupted him directly, which annoyed Zhao Zhongxin, but he still spoke up!

"Um, I'd like to invite the executive director to the Mountain and Water Manor for French cuisine! I've had someone find a good chef from France, I..."

Zhao Ruilong's words were interrupted by Liu Kun once again!

"No, the executive director said we can't go to Shanshui Manor anymore. It's full of lawbreakers who eat and drink there. Also, Mr. Zhao, last time you invited the executive director to dinner, only Mr. Zhao, Director Hou, and Mr. Gao knew about it. How did it spread to Nan Handong? What are you planning, Mr. Zhao? Hmm?"

Liu Kun's words were anything but polite, and Zhao Ruilong's expression immediately changed. He had tried to be clever and let people know that Zhao Zhongxin had a close relationship with him, but now he had probably made a mess of things!

"That was definitely not something we leaked, it must be..."

Zhao Ruilong's words were interrupted by Liu Kun once again!

"Oh? So, Mr. Zhao means I'm the one who spread it?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant! I wanted to invite the executive director over so I could personally apologize to him!"

Today, Zhao Ruilong truly experienced the feeling that it's easier to deal with the devil than with his underlings. He also dared not offend Liu Kun, as Liu Kun was Zhao Zhongxin's secretary and undoubtedly his confidant.

"No need for apologies, Mr. Zhao. I'm quite busy here. Let's leave it at that!"

After saying that, Liu Kun hung up the phone. On the other end, Zhao Ruilong smashed his newly bought iPhone on the ground. Damn it, how dare his little secretary make him suffer.

A little secretary? If Zhao Zhongxin knew, he would laugh too. His secretary is no small figure. He is his distant cousin, thirty years old. His father, who is also his uncle, Zhao Mengsheng's cousin, is a real level three official with real power, just like Sha Ruijin. In other words, this little secretary's influence is the same as yours before, but now it is much greater than yours!

"May I?"

Liu Kun asked, and Zhao Zhongxin nodded, satisfied with Liu Kun's explanation!

"Can!"

"What exactly is Zhao Ruilong up to? Why is he being so high-profile? First he met with Li Dakang, then Secretary Gao Yuliang, and now he wants to invite you to dinner! Does this young master Zhao still think he's Zhao Lichun back in Handong? Everyone's fawning over him?"

Liu Kun poured Zhao Zhongxin a cup of tea and then said!

"Who knows? I think Zhao Lichun will die at the hands of his son sooner or later!"

Zhao Zhongxin said directly, "To be honest, if Zhao Ruilong hadn't been so greedy, Zhao Lichun might not have fallen so quickly. Even if he had, it wouldn't have affected him. And even if it had, he could have just run away. Doesn't Zhao Ruilong have enough money? He could have just run away to America and still be a rich man. It's a pity that the hole of greed can never be filled!"

"I think so too. Zhao Lichun is a powerful figure in his own right, but his son seems to have no brains!"

Liu Kun laughed!

Meanwhile, Gao Yuliang also received a call from Zhao Lichun, who kept playing the emotional card. Gao Yuliang was somewhat moved, but Zhao Ruilong's actions and the internal strife with Hou Liangping made him very uncomfortable. He could no longer stand with Zhao Lichun. Zhao Lichun still wanted him to protect Hou Liangping, saying that Hou Liangping's position was too important. Gao Yuliang couldn't do it and just pretended to be confused.

Finally, Zhao Lichun understood Gao Yuliang's intentions and ended the phone call without saying anything more.

A huge weight seemed to have been lifted from Gao Yuliang's heart. He had severed ties with the Zhao family, and now all he wanted to do was find evidence of Hou Liangping's crimes and bring Hou Liangping to justice on the spot.

All of this was Zhao Zhongxin's confidence in Gao Yuliang. Without Zhao Zhongxin, Gao Yuliang would have gone down a dark path. In the original work, he stood up to Sha Ruijin and protected Qi Tongwei to the death because surrendering was impossible. Surrendering would not only mean losing half the battle, but also spending another year in prison!
