This was the incomparable deterrent force of Commander-in-Chief Shangguan. To put it bluntly, none of those who had close dealings with the Zhao family dared to pat their chests and say that they had no stains on them. This kind of thing, everyone just had a tacit understanding.
Of course, if the commander-in-chief took it seriously, Yuncheng would experience an unprecedented "earthquake". The more the Zhao Family tried to explain, the more it showed that they were guilty. Because of this, the Zhao Family became the target of public criticism.
At that time, the bet between Zhao Wente and me had spread like wildfire in Yuncheng. The people of the upper class also knew that I was standing up for Little Cherry. Now that she had become a phoenix, I was undoubtedly the biggest contributor. Otherwise, Little Cherry might not have been able to return to the Zhao Family in one piece.
Moreover, the commander-in-chief had called to suppress the news of me killing Zhao Yunfei. Some rich businessmen and bureaucrats took the initiative to contact Chief Feng. In the past, Chief Feng didn't have enough connections. In the end, because of my decision, not only did the Zhao Family's eyebrows burn, but I also took the opportunity to help the Blood Wolf Hall.
In the past, the Blood Wolf Hall's situation was just that they weren't bullied. If they wanted to develop in all aspects, there were many obstacles. Now, it was the wisest choice to swallow up the Zhao Family's connections bit by bit. It would be stupid to go against the Zhao Family head-on. In the current situation, without losing a single soldier, the Blood Wolf Hall's hard power could be continuously strengthened. This included various business chains. Gradually, the Blood Wolf Hall's network opened up. Several rich businessmen with hundreds of millions of assets had thrown out cooperation projects. It wasn't just the underground forces, but also many other industries. This kind of flourishing development had many benefits.
Actually, Chief Feng had thought about doing something. In the past, even though the Tiger Head Gang was the number one underground force, when they didn't fall behind, many people would jump out. They might feel pity in their hearts, but they would gloat and hit them when they were down. To put it bluntly, they were like rats crossing the street that everyone wanted to beat up.
In the country, the underground forces couldn't be shown in public. Only a real company like the Zhao Family could win the support of the government departments.
Old Man Zhao was a cunning and farsighted person. He had already considered all these years ago. That was why he allowed Third Master to develop. Even if Hongxing Gang was wiped out, he wouldn't be implicated. Moreover, he could cooperate with Third Master at the crucial moment and catch him off guard.
During this period of time, Chief Feng had been struggling to find a way out. Although many people envied him, he could not be satisfied with the current situation. He also knew the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace. Now that all kinds of opportunities for development were presented to him, Chief Feng was truly overjoyed.
In the past, I had talked to Chief Feng. Although the nightclub's business was booming and they were making a lot of money every day, this kind of business was not a long-term solution. Once the government started to target it, it could disappear overnight.
In the past few years, even those brothels in the capital city were inevitably closed. They also had backers, but they violated some taboos.
Moreover, earning this kind of money would not make him feel at ease. If he could clean up and start a proper business, that would be the best.
From the phone call, I could hear the joy in Chief Feng's voice. The promise I had made was coming true. He felt like he was in a dream.
While we were talking on the phone, in the military zone at the border of Nan Yun Province …
A unique Lotus Pavilion was located in the middle of a small lake. Two old men were sitting in the pavilion playing chess.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Let me think about this move." Commander-in-chief Shangguan took a sip of tea and said attentively.
At this time, a young man ran to the pavilion angrily. "Grandpa, why are you still playing chess? Something went wrong!" This person was Shangguan Jie.
He learned about the situation in Yuncheng at the first time. He didn't care about this matter, but some people said that Zhuang Feng was a young man valued by the Commander-in-chief. That brat used this name to act like a tyrant, which Shangguan Jie couldn't tolerate.
Therefore, he rushed over to inform Shangguan Guoqiang. Shangguan Guoqiang frowned and was slightly dissatisfied. It was not easy for him to take a break and play chess with his in-laws. Shangguan Jie rushed over regardless of the occasion and completely ruined his mood.
"Grandpa Ouyang." Soon Shangguan Jie found the old man next to him and hurriedly shouted respectfully.
He didn't dare to neglect this old man. Even if he was the grandson of the Commander-in-chief, he completely lowered his attitude. In Nan Yun Province, the only person who could be on an equal footing with the Commander-in-chief was this old man.
Although the Zhao family had the ability to cover the sky with one hand, it was only in a small Yuncheng. The capital city of Nan Yun Province was Kuncheng, and the most powerful martial arts family in Kuncheng was the Ouyang family!
The old man in front of him, Ouyang Feng, was the head of the family. As early as ten years ago, he entered the Transforming Strength stage and became the top master at the top of the pyramid in Nan Yun Province!
With his connections, the Ouyang family had been developing in a low-key manner over the years. Today, it had become a veritable behemoth. After careful consideration, Shangguan Guoqiang decided to unite with the Ouyang family by marriage.
With such a strong alliance, the future of Nanyun Province would definitely be bright. Even if they encountered a crisis in all aspects, they could easily solve it. The marriage was proposed by Shangguan Guoqiang. His body was not as good as before. He might die in three to five years. At that time, it would lead to all kinds of changes. A group of people would fight for fame and profit. It was inevitable. Therefore, he took this point into consideration while he was still able to bear it.
In fact, recently, Shangguan Jie was quite emotional. It turned out that he liked the daughter of a big family and hoped that the commander-in-chief would come to propose marriage. However, he was not a grandson, and he was a little eager for quick success and instant benefits. His desire for power was too strong, so Shangguan Guoqiang did not want to be a matchmaker.
On the contrary, as soon as Wan returned home, she began to arrange this matter. In just a few days, the invitations had been sent. Shangguan Jie was dissatisfied with his grandfather's partiality, but he did not express it in person. He was a smart man. In the future, he would have a good relationship with the Ouyang family by marriage. Anyway, Shangguan Guoqiang would not live for a few years, and he would also have the opportunity to take power.
After all, the Ouyang family was a martial arts family. According to the higher-ups, they would not let the Ouyang family take over the military power.
"Well, Jie, why did you come here in a hurry?" Ouyang Feng squinted and asked casually.
"Hey, Grandpa Ouyang, I didn't want to disturb you, but there is an ungrateful guy who swindled people in the name of my grandpa. It's too much!" Shangguan Jie said apologetically, shaking his head.
"It can't be?
Within the scope of Nan Yun Province, who would dare to do that? "Ouyang Feng was stunned, but his eyes flashed with a trace of playfulness.
