Nominal: The pinnacle of power began in the sixth province of Handong.

Chapter 74 The Calculations of All Parties

Chen Yanshi? Old Chen?

Gao Yuliang could hardly believe it; this was extremely important and far-reaching intelligence.

Gao Yuliang pondered for a moment, then looked at Chen Qingquan and said:

How many shares does he own?

Chen Qingquan thought for a moment and said:

"About 10%."

Upon hearing this answer, Gao Yuliang gradually relaxed and exchanged a glance with Qi Tongwei.

Qi Tongwei had a very bad impression of this old man. Not to mention that he hadn't gotten any credit for hoeing the fields, and that the old man hadn't offered any help when his relationship with Chen Yang had suffered setbacks. Just this alone made Qi Tongwei feel that the old man was using his position for personal gain and was extremely hypocritical.

Now, hearing that Chen Yanshi has such a significant weakness, even one that could expose his true colors, is quite surprising.

In his excitement, Qi Tongwei said from the bottom of his heart:

"Hahaha, what a fine Second Prosecutor of Handong Province! What a selfless and dedicated Old Chen who speaks up for the people! I told you he was jumping around at Dafeng Factory, blocking the excavators with his body, and shouting at the front, all for the sake of his own shares! It's absolutely hilarious!"

"No wonder these shareholders are demanding compensation based on the value of the commercial land! A billion-dollar plot, Cai Chenggong owns 60%, Chen Yanshi 10%, that's a billion dollars! Professor Gao, a billion dollars! Which corrupt official could so easily get a billion dollars? And it's all legal and legitimate, with the company paying for it? I never dreamed such a good thing could happen!"

"Gentlemen, let me be frank. I've long thought Chen Yanshi is a hypocrite. He claims to be working for the people, but in reality, he can't let go of his power and is unwilling to leave the circle of being fawned over! Isn't everything he does just for his own face? What about donating his retirement pension and living in a nursing home? Bah! Is that a nursing home? That's a villa! Teacher, let me tell you, if it weren't for Secretary Sha's extraordinary relationship with him, he would have already..."

"Tongwei!" Gao Yuliang shouted sternly to stop him.

That's enough.

Qi Tongwei then came to his senses. Thinking back to his dazed state of excitement, he felt a wave of fear. Fortunately, he hadn't said anything more dangerous.

Qi Tongwei apologized to Gao Yuliang with shame and obediently returned to his original position.

Gao Yuliang thought for a moment and then asked:

"Qingquan, who else has this information?"

Chen Qingquan said in a low voice:

"I dare say that Tian Guofu from the Discipline Inspection Commission definitely knows. They've been investigating the Dafeng Factory matter for a long time. Although they've been doing it but not saying anything, Chen Yanshi holds shares, so it's easy for them to get this information."

Gao Yuliang nodded, believing that Chen Qingquan's speculation was plausible.

Since Zhao Lichun left and Secretary Sha was parachuted in, Tian Guofu seemed to have received some kind of clarion call to charge, and began to lead the Discipline Inspection Commission to conduct investigations in various parts of Handong.

The focus, naturally, is on the cadres and projects left over from the Zhao Lichun era.

The goal was to find Zhao Lichun's weaknesses and use them as a breakthrough point for the Discipline Inspection Commission's offensive.

Dafeng Factory naturally couldn't escape Tian Guofu's investigation.

But the current situation is quite interesting.

Let's assume that Tian Guofu already has information about Chen Yanshi's shareholding, and even has evidence of it.

Why didn't he tell Sha Ruijin on his own initiative?

What is Tian Guofu waiting for? What is he thinking?

It seems their relationship is not solid; they are only cooperating temporarily on the issue of Zhao Lichun.

If so, this is information regarding Chen Yanshi's shareholding.

This became a good card to deal with both Sha Ruijin and Tian Guofu at the same time!

Gao Yuliang was extremely satisfied. This was the most enjoyable day he had had since Sha Ruijin and Tian Guofu had suppressed him in Handong for several months.

Gao Yuliang, brimming with confidence, instructed Chen Qingquan:

"Qingquan, this matter is only to me and Director Qi. Do not mention it to anyone else."

Chen Qingquan nodded hurriedly.

With Gao Yuliang as his backer, Chen Qingquan had no intention of switching allegiances. He also didn't want to tell anyone else about this intelligence that was enough to cause a huge uproar in Handong.

After Chen Qingquan left, Qi Tongwei, who was standing to the side, couldn't wait to walk up to Gao Yuliang and ask for instructions:

"Teacher Gao, what's the next step?"

"No rush. This intelligence is extremely important; we must save it for the most crucial moment." Gao Yuliang remained silent for a long time before saying:

"You just need to continue doing your job well for Minister Xia."

Qi Tongwei nodded and said:

"Understood, teacher."

Gao Yuliang narrowed his eyes and sneered:

"That's great. The whole situation has changed since Minister Xia arrived."

"Since you insist on labeling me as the leader of the Han University clique, I don't mind letting you experience the methods of the Deputy Secretary of the Handong Party Committee while striving for a smooth landing!"

……

At the same time, in Li Dakang's office.

He was listening to Zhao Donglai's report.

After finishing, Li Dakang stroked his chin and slowly said:

"So, Chen Qingquan was rescued by Secretary Yu Liang, while Hou Liangping was sent to the Party School for training?"

"Yes, I heard it was a district-level training course for cadres, the theme of which was self-discipline and management," Zhao Donglai said, barely suppressing a laugh.

"Officials who have been disciplined must attend."

"Hahaha, interesting." Li Dakang laughed as he fiddled with the cap of his fountain pen, saying:

"Secretary Yu Liang is indeed Secretary Yu Liang. That's enough; the objective regarding Chen Qingquan has been achieved."

Zhao Donglai asked, somewhat puzzled:

"It's achieved? Secretary Li, you mean... Shanshui Group?"

Li Dakang nodded, his expression serious, and said:

"Indeed, although Hou Liangping is reckless, he is ultimately a sharp knife in Secretary Sha's hands. We cannot interfere with him, but we can use a little ingenuity to direct this sharp knife in the direction we want."

"Secretary Yu Liang wasn't trying to save Chen Qingquan; he just wanted to teach Hou Liangping a lesson. But in Hou Liangping's eyes, this has become that Secretary Yu Liang went to great lengths to get Chen Qingquan away, and that Chen Qingquan has direct connections with the Shanshui Group... So, where do you think Hou Liangping's attention will go next?"

Zhao Donglai pondered Li Dakang's words repeatedly and gradually understood their meaning!

"You mean, Hou Liangping will relentlessly pursue Chen Qingquan's trail and tie Secretary Yuliang to the Shanshui Group?"

Li Dakang said with satisfaction:

"Not only that, Qi Tongwei is also a member of the Shanshui Group. The tighter Hou Liangping pursues them, the more attention is focused on the Shanshui Group and Qi Tongwei, giving the Guangming Peak project ample time to progress. Donglai, do you understand how important this project is?"

Zhao Donglai nodded.

Li Dakang patted Zhao Donglai on the shoulder and said:

"The reason I rejected Qi Tongwei's attempts to curry favor was because I didn't want him to be promoted to vice-provincial level! Now, Secretary Sha has already taken a liking to Qi Tongwei. As long as you cooperate with Hou Liangping to find problems with Qi Tongwei and the Shanshui Group, his position as Director of the Public Security Bureau will definitely be in jeopardy! And you are a criminal investigation expert recommended to Secretary Sha from Beijing. With the achievements of the Guangming Peak project, you, the director of the municipal bureau, will probably soon become the director of the provincial department..."

Zhao Donglai stood up, saluted, and said:

"Thank you for your concern, Secretary Li! Donglai guarantees to complete the task!"
