In name only, I, Gao Yuliang, will sink Handong at worst.

Chen Yu opened the door, and Cheng Du cautiously followed him in. He didn't know why Gao Yuliang had called him over.

He was just a lowly bureau chief in the Guangming District branch; even if he were to be dealt with, it wouldn't be the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission who would handle him. Chen Yu, who was entertaining him, was of a higher rank than him.

Cheng Du saw Gao Yuliang sitting and processing documents.

Seeing that the person had arrived, Gao Yuliang said, "Xiao Chen, make me a cup of tea."

Cheng Du became even more apprehensive and sat down timidly in the chair opposite Gao Yuliang's desk. Cheng Du was not worthy of Gao Yuliang's reception in the meeting room.

Chen Yu brought over a glass of tea and placed it in front of Cheng Du.

"Chengdu, I'm asking you, are you aware of anything regarding the Dafeng Factory incident?"

"Ah! Dafeng Factory." Cheng Du panicked immediately. Should he answer that he knew or not? Had something happened at Dafeng Factory? It must have happened on his own turf, otherwise the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission would have come looking for him.

"I am aware that Dafeng Factory started building trenches and erecting barbed wire fences on the fences six months ago. I have already reported this in writing to Zhao Donglai, the director of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau in Hanzhong, and also reported it by phone. There are recordings. There were a total of three reports."

"Three months ago, I learned that they had transported five tons of gasoline into Dafeng Factory, and I had bribed someone to find out that there were twenty tons of gasoline inside Dafeng Factory. I reported this again, making a total of three written reports, three telephone reports, and two face-to-face reports. Now you can play the recording."

As Cheng Du was about to take out his phone to play the recording for Gao Yuliang, Gao Yuliang did not stop him. If he didn't listen, how would he know if the other party had actually reported anything?

"Director Zhao Donglai, I have something to report. Someone is building a trench and erecting barbed wire at Dafeng Factory. There are more than a thousand people at Dafeng Factory. The Guangming District Police Station has limited manpower, so I request that the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau intervene to handle this matter."

"It's just building some trenches! What's the big deal? And setting up barbed wire isn't like fighting a crime. Look at how many schools and kindergartens are using barbed wire for security, right? And some people even put a lot of broken glass on it." Zhao Donglai replied dismissively.

"Besides, that Dafeng Factory was restructured by Chen Yanshi. Now, with the support of the old revolutionary Chen Yanshi, they are just protecting their legitimate rights and interests. What could they have done wrong?"

This was the first time a report had been given, and Gao Yuliang could tell that the voice on the phone was indeed Zhao Donglai's, and such things couldn't be faked.

He listened to them one by one.

"The Dafeng factory has stockpiled a large amount of gasoline, exceeding twenty tons, which has seriously endangered the lives of the people of Jingzhou. There is a possibility of explosion and deflagration. I need to request the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau to intervene."

"Didn't you say that only five tons had come in? Where did twenty tons come from? And it's for Dafeng Factory to replenish gasoline. With it constantly being consumed, how much can be left? You're just worrying too much," Zhao Donglai said.

Gao Yuliang was furious upon hearing Zhao Donglai's words. Zhao Donglai had planted landmines on his own turf, and his subordinates had reported it but turned a blind eye. This was utterly incompetent.

"Have you reported to Sun Liancheng? Have you reported to Li Dakang?"

"Secretary Yuliang, how can I, a branch bureau chief, report to the municipal party secretary? I've also reported to Sun Liancheng, but it didn't yield any results. Now, both the Guangming District and the Public Security Bureau branch have people guarding the area, and I don't know what to do."

"This Zhao Donglai is utterly incompetent. I'll have Li Dakang deal with him later. Now let's discuss your matter! Have you installed any listening devices in my home or office?" Gao Yuliang said calmly.

But these words struck Cheng Du's heart like a thunderbolt.

"No, how could I dare to eavesdrop on you?" Cheng Du stood up immediately.

"So what's this about you wiretapped Li Dakang? Sit down, don't be in such a hurry!"

Cheng Du hurriedly sat down and looked at Gao Yuliang. It was autumn, and the air conditioning was on, but Cheng Du still felt himself sweating profusely.

"I didn't care that you worked for Zhao Ruilong in the past. Now you have two choices: one is to sever ties with Zhao Ruilong, clean up all the loose ends, and follow me. The other is to continue following Zhao Ruilong, and whatever happens to you, I won't care."

"Of course I'll follow you! It's just that I entered our Handong University late, otherwise I would definitely be your student!" Cheng Du naturally wanted to join Gao Yuliang's group, since he was just a small bureau chief, only at the division level.

"I'd like to join your Han University gang too!"

Can he refuse an invitation from a ministerial-level official? Besides, just because he got on Zhao Ruilong's side doesn't mean he got on Zhao Lichun's side. Even if he did, how could he not know who's in charge in Handong now?

Moreover, there is a wealth secret in Handong, and that is Teacher Gao. Who in the entire Handong University gang is not rich!

"What Han University gang? I'm just a teacher and a group of students. At most, I'm just giving people a fair chance to compete. There's no gang involved. Don't get me wrong."

"Yes." Cheng Du's eyes were resolute.

"By the way, it seems your cousin Chang Chenghu is planning to forcibly demolish Dafeng Factory. You should find a more respectable job! At least don't get involved in this Dafeng Factory matter."

Cheng Du sighed. Fortunately, he had followed Secretary Yu Liang, otherwise he might not even know how he died, and his cousin would have to go to jail.

"How much is your net worth now?" Gao Yuliang asked.

"I have bought a house in Jingzhou, which is worth about one million. With my savings, I have 1.3 million. If I take out a loan, I can get several hundred thousand more."

Gao Yuliang nodded, feeling that it was a good idea, and said, "In that case, use these mortgaged loans to buy shares of Terui A. You can make a lot of money next year. It won't be a problem to increase it seven or eight times. You can also leverage it a little."

Two words were revealed in Du Cheng's eyes: loyalty.

I've been turned into gold by the Midas touch. I can distrust anyone, but I can't distrust Teacher Gao.

15 was a rare bull market, and the most popular stocks were Baofeng and Chinese Language, but these will be launched next year. The only stock available for purchase now is Terui A.

"Alright, now I'm taking you to report to Governor Liu."
