Chapter 595 A crooked upper beam leads to a crooked lower beam
"Finally, a couple of pieces of advice: First, don't be too greedy. Know when to stop when you've made enough money, and remember to clean up your mess. Second, don't put all your eggs in one basket. Be prepared for the worst; if that day ever comes, you won't be in a living hell..."

Gao Dongxu looked at the evil dragon and said calmly, delivering what seemed like advice but was actually a powerful blow aimed at sowing discord.

The greatest tragedy in life is dying before you've spent all your money, only to have it benefit someone else.

The dragon's face turned ugly and gloomy again, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He smoked his cigar and nodded silently.

Gao Dongxu knew that his attempt to sow discord had succeeded. Even if the evil dragon knew that he had ill intentions, it would become suspicious and harbor resentment.

There was no other way; Gao Dongxu's attempt to sow discord was an open strategy, consistent with common human nature.

That is, no one wants to admit that they are inferior to others. Similarly, in the allocation of limited resources, no one wants to be the one who suffers the most loss.

Therefore, the most skillful tactics of sowing discord are often not direct confrontations, but rather the use of seemingly harmless means to subtly instill resentment and dissatisfaction towards others.

To say that someone is bad and treacherous is to attack their conscience.

If you want to use underhanded tactics to hurt someone, you can't say too many hurtful things. If you say too many, others will think you have ill intentions and that you have a personal grudge against them.

The essence of sowing discord lies in the fact that "she has acted out of self-interest, affecting your interests and disrespecting your rights."

By inciting unease in one person, you can successfully pit him against another.

Undoubtedly, the most uneasy person right now is the dragon who suspects he has been used as a pawn and a scapegoat.

"Leave me your phone number. I have quite a few antiques and paintings that others have given me. I'm not really into those things, but I'll find an opportunity for you to take a look, get an estimate, and I'll sell them all to you."

The dragon looked at Gao Dongxu and, although it didn't say anything to express its gratitude, it still extended an olive branch.

“Alright, since you’re willing to give me money, of course I won’t refuse,” Gao Dongxu said jokingly.

The dragon's lips twitched a few times, and he said irritably, "I'm selling you, not giving you away. Don't try to rip me off."

"Hmph, let's see how many of these are genuine. You're so blind, you wouldn't even know if they gave you fakes," Gao Dongxu sneered.

The dragon's expression changed slightly, and he said with a somewhat ugly look, "Impossible, how could they possibly give me a fake one?"

"So, it's normal that you wouldn't know if I gave you a fake. There are many antique dealers who specialize in making fakes for gift-giving. Even the buyers don't know they're buying fakes, let alone someone like you who's receiving a gift," Gao Dongxu sneered.

"Damn it—" the evil dragon cursed angrily upon hearing this, "I'm never accepting those worthless antiques and paintings again."

Gao Dongxu took a puff of his cigar without commenting, then turned and walked into the house, saying casually, "Think about how to tell your second sister what we talked about tonight."

Upon hearing Gao Dongxu's words, the dragon's face darkened again. He hadn't thought there was anything wrong with his second sister being able to monitor his whereabouts and actions at any time.

But now, the evil dragon felt a chill from the bottom of his heart. He was standing on the stage, doing all sorts of bad things, charging into battle, and frantically accumulating wealth. He was just a puppet pushed out, a scapegoat. The ones who truly enjoyed the wealth were his second sister and the others.

Watching Gao Dongxu's disappearing figure, a venomous and chilling glint flashed in the dragon's eyes as he gritted his teeth and muttered, "What a fine risk stratification!"

Back in the VIP room, Gao Dongxu had a few more drinks with Brother Qi and chatted for a while before, slightly drunk, leading the four women away from the Qi Group.

Back at the Rose Garden, Gao Dongxu, emboldened by alcohol, first played cards with the Ruxin and Ruqing sisters, playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game). Afterwards, he went sightseeing with Keke and Su Yan respectively.

It must be said that, whether as a boss or as a man, he has been conscientious, persistent, and devoted to his duties.

The following morning, Gao Dongxu, along with four women and Leng Feng and three others, a group of nine, arrived at Courtyard No. 3.

The uncle and aunt looked helpless when they saw the four women beside Gao Dongxu.

Their dear nephew is good in every way, except he's too lecherous. He has so many women around him that his parents don't know what to say.

Gao Dongxu also met Qingquan, who is still working as his uncle's secretary and enjoys learning foreign languages.

It has to be said that Secretary Chen is really good at disguising himself now. He is honest, simple, and always smiling. He is especially obsequious to Gao Dongxu from the moment they meet, which is very obvious.

To outsiders, Gao Dongxu found Secretary Chen's fondness for learning foreign languages ​​amusing, but now he genuinely loathed him. He knew this guy was a truly unscrupulous official who had no bottom line when it came to personal gain.

Of course, despite his dislike, Gao Dongxu didn't show it. There was no need to offend Chen Waiyu, a two-faced person who was good at disguising himself. After all, the other party liked him, and he couldn't very well hit a smiling person.

Gao Dongxu and his group of nine, along with his uncle and three others, carrying five suitcases containing the animal heads, headed to the train station. Although his uncle could have flown first class to Beijing, he usually opted for the high-speed train.

In the private compartment of the high-speed train, Gao Dongxu and his uncle sat side by side. To be honest, this was the first time Gao Dongxu had ever sat in such a compartment.

The entire carriage has been converted into four enclosed suites, equipped with double beds and audio-visual systems, and a one-way ticket costs six times the price of an economy class ticket. All four tickets must be purchased at once, essentially booking a mobile hotel room.

According to some attractive flight attendants, the compartments were converted from retired sleeper cars, and the noise level was reduced to library level after the shock absorption system was upgraded.

Inside the private room, the uncle glanced back at the twin sisters sitting behind him, who had high ponytails, wore black hooded sweatshirts, skinny jeans, and ankle boots, and frowned slightly.

He looked at Gao Dongxu, frowned, and asked, "Did you arrange this?"

"Hmm." Gao Dongxu smiled and nodded, seemingly understanding his uncle's doubts, and explained with a smile: "Uncle, don't underestimate those two girls. They not only have superb martial arts skills, but they are also experts in traditional Chinese medicine. They also know the secret of acupuncture, the Thirteen Ghost Needles."

It took me a lot of time and effort to win over these two girls.

The two sisters, Ruxin and Ruqing, in the back seat, smiled sweetly as they listened to Gao Dongxu's words, inwardly complaining that he had indeed spent a lot of energy on them.

The uncle was slightly surprised. He turned back to look at the two sisters who were giving him innocent and sweet smiles, and nodded slightly, making the two sisters feel flattered.

"You should treat them kindly."

"Don't worry, Uncle, they're all my women. I won't mistreat them," Gao Dongxu said shamelessly with a smug smile.

The uncle's lips twitched a few times as he looked at his nephew's smug smile, who was not ashamed at all but proud of it. He sighed inwardly, thinking that even if he, as the uncle, was a bad example, Gao Dongxu was a completely crooked example.

"You shouldn't be so reckless and indulge yourself. Humans are creatures of desire, and outstanding people are those who can control their desires."

When desires get out of control, they can become the source of greed, depravity, and even destruction.

How one deals with desires is an important measure of one's spiritual level.

"Hehe, Uncle, you'd better not say that. My spiritual level is really not high. I like all low-level interests. In my opinion, restraining desires and delaying gratification is against human nature."

"So, Uncle, we have different values, so please don't make things difficult for me. As long as I don't break the law, I don't care about morality or anything like that." Gao Dongxu said to his uncle with a playful smile, revealing his true thoughts.

"..." The uncle was speechless, looking at Gao Dongxu's grinning face, and finally shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Oh, right, Uncle, I forgot to tell you, we reached an agreement with the evil dragon last night. He agreed to demolish the food court on Crescent Lake. You see, find a suitable opportunity to mention it, and the evil dragon will respond and demolish the food court," Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

The uncle paused for a moment, then looked at Gao Dongxu with some surprise, frowning slightly as he asked, "What did you promise him? How could he bear to tear it down?"

To be honest, the food court has always been a source of anxiety for my uncle, and a stain on his reputation. As long as the food court exists, he will feel like he has a bone stuck in his throat.

The food court could also become a fatal stumbling block to his future prospects at any time.

Hearing Gao Dongxu say that this stumbling block could be removed at any time, completely solving his mental problem, he was naturally very happy.

"Hehe, I didn't agree to any conditions. I just gave him some pointers. The condition for giving him pointers was to demolish the food court and eliminate any future problems," Gao Dongxu chuckled.

"Give him pointers?" The uncle frowned even more, looking at Gao Dongxu with deep and sharp eyes, and said, "For him to willingly demolish the food court, it seems that your guidance has been very helpful to him. Tell me exactly how you gave him your guidance, word for word."

"Hehe, it's nothing really, I just analyzed his situation for him..." Gao Dongxu laughed and recounted what he had said to the evil dragon to his uncle.

The more he listened, the more complicated his expression became. Looking at his nephew who was so focused on cleaning up his backside and protecting him, he was deeply moved but also filled with mixed feelings.

I feel that what I did as your uncle was really a failure. Not only did it not benefit Gao Dongxu at all, but it also made him work hard to eliminate potential problems for me.

“Given the dragon’s selfishness and insatiable greed, he will definitely fall out with his second sister. Let him cause trouble at home for now, so as not to disturb you. Once everything settles down, you won’t be held back anymore.” Gao Dongxu chuckled as he looked at his uncle, whose eyes were filled with emotion and affection.

"Hmm." The uncle didn't say anything, just gave a soft "hmm," then leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Gao Dongxu smiled slightly. He knew that from this moment on, he was his uncle's best nephew, even closer than his own son.
