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

11 month 6 number.

Yesterday, the twenty tons of gasoline from Dafeng Factory were delivered, and Gao Yuliang slept more peacefully last night, no longer worried about anything happening there.

As for the Mountain and Water Manor, he has no connection with it. Right now, his main job is to take care of his daily work.

Gao Yuliang received a private call. He glanced at it and saw it was from Zhao Ruilong. If Zhao Lichun was a dragon, then Zhao Ruilong could only be considered a snake at best, just slightly better than a worm.

To make money, he had to embezzle funds from the oil and gas group. When asked to buy stocks, he refused. Gao Yuliang pointed out the path to wealth in futures, but he insisted on going against him, forcing his family to clean up his mess.

In the previous few years, he would have tried to educate Zhao Ruilong, hoping that the other party would not go astray. However, the other party did not listen and associated with those bad friends, so he couldn't be bothered to care about Zhao Ruilong anymore. The other party made a lot of money from the food court and real estate, and his net worth was several hundred billion. However, this was all fixed assets, and he didn't know how much cash flow he had.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have set his sights on the land of Dafeng Factory, which brought him so much trouble. The debt he owed to the oil and gas group has been outstanding for a long time. The first thing he should do after making money is to pay back the money!

Gao Yuliang directly connected with Zhao Ruilong's call.

"I am Gao Yuliang." After saying this, Gao Yuliang did nothing else. His right hand was still flipping through the documents, looking at them.

"This is Zhao Ruilong. I didn't expect our Secretary Gao to be so busy. It's not easy to meet him. He doesn't answer the phone. I knew you were the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, but I thought you were the Provincial Party Secretary who was so busy." Zhao Ruilong's shameless voice came through the receiver.

"What brings you here, Young Master Zhao?" Gao Yuliang seemed not to have heard Zhao Ruilong's sarcastic remarks. He wouldn't ask Ding Yizhen the stupid question of whether the other party had killed him. If Zhao Ruilong were arrested, he might be implicated if he had said these things on the phone.

They are definitely involved.

"On the 30th, I kept trying to call you but couldn't get through!"

"When we were planning to arrest Ding Yizhen, I couldn't contact the outside world, as that would have violated the confidentiality regulations."

"Now even professors are starting to talk about law. Did you and Gao Xiaofeng ever discuss law in bed back then? Were you talking about the history of the Ming Dynasty or about law?"

Gao Yuliang hung up on Zhao Ruilong's call and then blocked him. "Who do you think you are, daring to threaten me? Zhao Lichun was holding my fake divorce documents and was still trying to reason with me!"

Who do you think you are, Zhao Ruilong? He wouldn't bother with such things.

Zhao Ruilong dialed the number again, but the phone was switched off.

The number you dialed is currently switched off.

Zhao Ruilong knew perfectly well that Gao Yuliang had blocked his number. Someone of Gao Yuliang's status would never turn off his phone, so Zhao Ruilong was obviously blocked.

Enraged, she slammed her phone on the ground: "You, Gao Yuliang, who do you think you are? How dare you block me? Do you think you can get away with anything just because my father isn't in Handong? My Zhao family still has quite a few people in Handong!"

"I want to complain! I want to complain!" Zhao Ruilong called Zhao Lichun directly to complain.

Gao Yuliang sent a message directly to his student group: "If Zhao Ruilong asks you to do something, don't do it, ignore him, and just message me directly if you need anything."

This message is simple, but it means a lot. It means that Gao Yuliang has secretly broken ties with Zhao Lichun.

Qi Tongwei looked at this message

Gao Yuliang then went back to work. He couldn't be bothered to play along with the Crown Prince. He didn't even realize that everyone was eyeing the Zhao family. Instead of trying to win over his allies and keep everyone on board, they were threatening him instead. Being stupid wasn't the problem; being stupid without realizing it was the real problem.

Zhao Ruilong called Zhao Lichun.

"Dad, Gao Yuliang doesn't listen to us anymore, and now he's blocked me."

Zhao Lichun knew his own child's character, and he knew Gao Yuliang's personality even better. The other party would never do such a thing without a reason.

"What did you tell him? Tell the truth, not a single word can be wrong."

Zhao Ruilong then recounted what had happened, adding at the end, "That Gao Yuliang was incredibly rude. I called him dozens of times, and not only did he not answer, but he didn't call me back the next day either. And yet he was still polite when he didn't call me back."

Zhao Lichun felt he shouldn't have spoiled his son so much, which directly offended Gao Yuliang, whose students were his best support.

As long as the other side stabilizes Handong, then he might have a chance to compete for the top spot. He knew what happened yesterday: Gao Yuliang led the way in giving Sha Ruijin a hard time, and everyone knew that Chen Yanshi was Sha Ruijin's adoptive father.

Zhao Lichun had been operating in Handong for so many years, and now he was in Beijing. His in-laws were no ordinary people either. He didn't even know that Sha Ruijin's adoptive father was Chen Yanshi.

Yesterday, twenty tons of gasoline from Dafeng Factory were transported away. He originally thought he had seen through Gao Yuliang and had him under control, but now it seems that he hadn't. Gao Yuliang's roots in Handong are much deeper than he thought!

He had taken it as a joke, but now his son had offended them. Offending them was a small matter, but if Gao Yuliang used the Zhao family's affairs as a pledge of loyalty...

Even if the Zhao family doesn't die, they'll be badly hurt. Did Gao Yuliang know about the Zhao family's affairs or not? Moreover, he realized that he hadn't seen through Gao Yuliang at all.

Why would the Zhao family, with its vast political resources and connections, risk a complete stalemate with a mere scholar?

"You've got some nerve, haven't you! Handong isn't our Zhao family's Handong. Gao Yuliang is the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. What are you trying to do? Tell me, why did you call Gao Yuliang on the 30th?"

Zhao Lichun knew what had happened on the 30th: Sha Ruijin took office, Ding Yizhen was arrested, and Ding Yizhen died the next day. If his son hadn't done anything, why would he have made so many phone calls to Gao Yuliang?

He now suspects that his son is involved in Ding Yizhen's death.

"Me? I just called Gao Yuliang on a whim to chat." Zhao Ruilong dared not reveal his and Ding Yizhen's operation of Dafeng Factory. It was simple: he had committed murder. If he were caught, at most the arrest would be on him, Zhao Ruilong, and he couldn't implicate Zhao Lichun.

Zhao Lichun is the pillar of the Zhao family. His two older sisters are now a provincial-level official and a county magistrate, respectively. They can't possibly protect so many others.

If Zhao Lichun retires and no one takes over, it's unclear whether I can keep my job.

"You're so kind as to call and catch up with old friends. Don't bother Gao Yuliang and his group unless it's absolutely necessary, okay? I still need them to keep things stable in Handong."

"I just don't understand, what's so great about that Gao Yuliang that he deserves to be treated like this by our family? Besides, we have photos of him and Gao Xiaofeng and our son. We can easily ruin his reputation." Zhao Ruilong really disliked Professor Gao Yuliang.

Previously, this professor had been lecturing him, but it had also caused him to lose a lot of money. He called to ask for advice on how to make money, but the call was immediately hung up.

Now, when he calls his own father, he gets scolded by him.

Zhao Lichun then called Gao Yuliang.

"Old boss, you're calling? What's up?" Gao Yuliang glanced at the phone number and knew it was Zhao Lichun calling.

"Ruilong was just being childish, please don't take it to heart."

Gao Yuliang had never seen a thirty-year-old person still called a child, and he understood that Zhao Lichun spoiled his son, who was born late in life, and that Zhao Ruilong was clearly spoiled by Zhao Lichun.
