Starting as a town mayor, he rose through the ranks.

After listening to Qiao Zheng's words, Li Yuan fell silent. This matter involved Lin Luhua, the provincial party secretary, and the Xiao family, so he dared not make a decision lightly.

"Old Joe! Let's not get involved in this ourselves. Let's just ignore it and let Luo Zhiguo do whatever he wants. If anything happens to him, the Tong family will help him..."

After thinking for a moment, he said to Qiao Zheng on the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zheng first frowned slightly, but then he understood what Li Yuan meant.

This matter involves Lin Luhua, the provincial party secretary, and the Xiao family, who represent the Discipline Inspection Commission.

If they rashly intervene in this matter, it would be tantamount to declaring their opposition to the top leader.

Therefore, they cannot interfere and offend the top leader's side, nor can they interfere with Luo Zhiguo and offend the Tong family.

The best approach is to ignore it, let Luo Zhiguo cause trouble, and not concern ourselves with any accidents that happen.

With the Tong family as his backer, even if the top star or the Xiao family wanted to touch him, they would have to think twice.

Having understood Li Yuan's meaning, Qiao Zheng couldn't help but admire him greatly; no wonder he was able to become the secretary of the provincial discipline inspection commission.

The ability to analyze the whole situation in such a short time and make a favorable decision is truly remarkable.

"Okay, Secretary!" he replied. After a few more words, the two ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Zheng thought about it and still felt that he should inform Tong Wu about this matter.

Otherwise, if people find out later and blame you for not telling them you had something to do, that would be bad.

Thinking of this, he found Tong Wu's phone number and dialed it.

"Old Joe! What's up, calling so late at night?"

The call was quickly connected, and Tong Wu's somewhat suspicious voice came through.

"Old Tong! It's like this..."

After exchanging greetings, Qiao Zheng recounted the whole story.

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Old Tong! This matter concerns Brother Yi and the Xiao family, so the Party Secretary's intention is to turn a blind eye and let Xiao Luo cause trouble in Shunping County..."

After hearing his words, Tong Wu calmed down and said politely, "That young lad Zhiguo is young and likes to cause trouble, I'm sorry to have troubled you, Old Qiao..."

If someone else said that, it would just be a polite remark.

But from Tong Wu's words, Qiao Zheng immediately understood another meaning. Tong Wu was implying that Luo Zhiguo was a member of the Tong family.

No matter who it is, as long as Luo Zhiguo's stance is correct, no one should bully him.

"Hahaha! Old Tong, you're too kind. Although Zhiguo likes to cause trouble, he doesn't act recklessly. Everything he does is for the benefit of the people. Nowadays, there aren't many young people like him."

Qiao Zheng composed himself and said with a smile.

The two exchanged a few polite words, said nothing more, and that was enough to convey their meaning before ending the call.

Nothing happened that night. The next day, before Luo Zhiguo had even woken up, his phone rang.

"Feed..."

When the call connected, his voice sounded somewhat languid.

"It's terrible, boss! The two men we arrested last night committed suicide by poisoning themselves..."

The sound of a yellow bell rang out.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo was instantly wide awake. He sat up and asked with a grave expression, "Old Huang! What happened? How could someone in the police station commit suicide by poisoning themselves?"

"Boss! According to the forensic examination, the two had hidden the poison in their teeth beforehand. As long as they bit open the capsule, the poison would enter their internal organs through their mouths, causing them to die within ten seconds..." Huang Zhong explained angrily.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo frowned. He hadn't expected those people to be so professional, having hidden the poison in their teeth beforehand.

"Old Huang! Have you found out who they are?"

After thinking for a moment, he asked in a deep voice.

"Boss! Both of them are from other provinces, have several murders on their hands, and are desperate criminals. If they get caught, they're doomed. That's why they hid poison in their teeth beforehand, ready to commit suicide at any time..."

Huang Zhong said.

Luo Zhiguo's face turned extremely gloomy. He thought to himself, "Jin Qingping is really capable. He can even find such a desperate criminal."

It seems he has a powerful force behind him that specializes in these kinds of shady dealings.

"Old Huang! Handle this matter well, and don't let it cause any negative public opinion..."

He calmed himself down and gave a solemn instruction.

"Don't worry, boss! These desperate criminals are dead, so what? It won't cause any public outcry..."

Huang Zhong was very experienced in handling these kinds of situations, so he comforted Luo Zhiguo. "Hmm!"

Luo Zhiguo nodded, responded, and then hung up the phone.

He lit a cigarette and fell into deep thought with a serious expression.

Since Jin Qingping still has powerful backers, is there any connection between this power and Lin Luhua, the provincial party secretary?

If there is a connection, then this matter is already beyond my control.

If it has nothing to do with Lin Luhua, then this matter is still within our control.

"Ring ring ring..."

Just then, my phone rang again.

Seeing that it was a call from Tong Wu's office, he was startled and quickly answered the phone, greeting him respectfully, "Hello, Third Uncle!"

"Hey kid! How's it going lately? Is the work at the Discipline Inspection Commission quite challenging?"

Tong Wu's kind voice came from behind.

Luo Zhiguo didn't understand what he meant. After thinking for a moment, he replied in a standard, conventional way, "Third Uncle! The work of the Discipline Inspection Commission is indeed very challenging. I've learned a lot during this time..." "Hmm!"

Tong Wu nodded and responded, then changed the subject, asking, "Kid! The Xiao family and Secretary Lin are both paying attention to this matter. Last night, Secretary Lin even called Secretary Li Yuan to see if it was possible to downplay the situation in Shunping County. In the end, Qiao Zheng heard your report, and the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection's attitude towards Shunping County was to turn a blind eye and let you do whatever you want..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo was not disappointed, because ignoring it was also a form of support.

After thinking for a moment, he tentatively asked, "Third Uncle! What do you think?"

"What I mean is, if anyone dares to hit you, and you're in the right, then hit them back..."

Tong Wu answered with great confidence, then continued, "By the way! Tong Ming had nothing to do, so I put him in the inspection team. I just gave him a call and told him to go to Shunping County to find you and work alongside you..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo was slightly taken aback. He remembered that Tong Ming had said he didn't want to join the system, so how come he had gone to the inspection team now?

It seems that Tong Wu forced this arrangement; otherwise, given Tong Ming's personality, he probably would never have voluntarily entered the system.

"Okay, Third Uncle!"

"Kid! After Tong Ming goes to Shunping County, you must treat him strictly. Don't give him special treatment just because he's your cousin..."

Tong Wu gave a stern warning, seemingly already aware of the relationship between Luo Zhiguo and Tong Ming, and was giving them a heads-up in advance.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo gave a wry smile, thinking to himself, "Even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare to treat your young master Tong Zhen's cousin harshly." "Yes, Third Uncle! I know what to do..."

Despite feeling helpless, he still agreed.
