Chapter 724 All's fair in war, understand?
Lu Qiaoge continued rambling: "As you know, Zhen Xi had a needle in his head. I was the one who contacted Old Master Sun to cure his illness. Otherwise, President Zhen might be a madman now."
Our ancestors said that people die for wealth and birds die for food, and there is some truth to that.
Especially in a world where money is everything, anything is possible.
Director Lü, regarding what I just said, do you dare to say it doesn't exist?
Leaving aside others, let's just talk about the Feng family. When Chairman Feng and his family left our side for Gangcheng, it would be fair to say they had nothing.
At that time, Chairman Feng's first wife's family was still very influential in Hong Kong. When Chairman Feng was at his lowest point, he made a living by pulling rickshaws.
After marrying his first wife, he quickly accumulated his first fortune with the help of her family. He then began investing and within a few years became a wealthy family in Hong Kong.
When he married his first wife, he must have made vows of eternal love, saying that she was the only woman in his life and that he would never let her down.
However, in just a few years, he had one woman after another.
He said that his mother forced him to marry his second wife because his eldest son from his first wife was mentally challenged.
But now we also have to wonder whether Chairman Feng's eldest son was born stupid or was made stupid by someone?
Therefore, these people have very rich and colorful histories, both in terms of how they made their fortunes and their love lives.
The second wife was no ordinary person; otherwise, how could she have given birth to so many children?
The second wife's family was an ordinary family, but after marrying Chairman Feng, they suddenly became a new elite in Hong Kong.
In those years, she attended various banquets with Chairman Feng in place of the first wife.
Those who know the inside story will understand, but those who don't might think she is Chairman Feng's first wife.
The second wife also referred to herself as Mrs. Feng.
Because the son of the first wife was mentally challenged and the other wife was a daughter, she naturally assumed that everything in the Feng family belonged to her and her son.
Once the first wife dies, she can become Chairman Feng's wife, and her children can become the heirs of the shipping company.
But unexpectedly, another young and beautiful woman entered their lives.
If Chairman Feng could give her a large sum of money, that would be fine, but in reality, Chairman Feng practically kicked her and her children out of the house.
For specific reasons, please refer to the points I mentioned above.
Even so, could the second wife, with her kind of personality, swallow this insult?
She either destroys the Feng family or takes it back.
Of course, maybe I'm just overthinking things with conspiracy theories.
As you said, it might really have been an accident.
But why can't we give it a try?
Anyway, no matter what we do, it won't cause us any loss, nor will it affect our daily work.
Director Lü was stunned by what Lu Qiaoge said.
Based on his past behavior, Director Lü would never have bothered to listen to such gossip.
But today, the more I listened, the more excited I became.
Even after Lu Qiaoge finished speaking, he still seemed a little unsatisfied.
It has to be said, Mr. Feng's house is really lively.
Director Lü, no longer serious or with a stern face, asked Lu Qiaoge with great interest, "All we need to do is make this call to Chairman Feng, right?"
Lu Qiaoge nodded with a smile: "Yes."
Actually, a simple phone call couldn't solve the problem. The most important thing was that Lu Qiaoge had to write a letter and have Zi Xiaodong put it in the Feng family's mailbox.
And ensure that Chairman Feng himself receives this letter.
She will write down the truth that the little darlings have learned in the letter. Although it's not the whole truth, it's more than 70% complete, enough for Chairman Feng to investigate this matter thoroughly.
These are all solid pieces of evidence.
In a place like a port city, you can't just do business in the open.
Especially in the 1970s and 80s, Hong Kong was a complete melting pot.
The law of the jungle is the most accurate description of what happens there.
If Chairman Feng doesn't want the Feng family to be swallowed up, he will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly.
Director Lü smiled and said, "Alright, I know what to do. You can go back to your office now. You need to report to the school tomorrow, so I'll give you a few days off."
As Lu Qiaoge reached the door, Director Lü remembered something: "Oh right, Qiaoge, there's something I haven't told you yet. The Fourth and Fifth Divisions will be merged into the First, Second, and Third Divisions in a month."
Director Lü originally wanted to tell Lu Qiaoge not to worry, as she was sure that given her abilities, she wouldn't be arbitrarily relegated to a lower position.
But then I thought that with Lu Qiaoge's abilities, she would be very capable no matter which department she went to.
After Lu Qiaoge left, Director Lü did not make a phone call. Instead, he took the documents to the leader's office, only to find several other leaders there.
Director Lü wanted to wait a while before coming, but Director Bai smiled and waved to him, saying, "Come in, come in, you can join us in the discussion."
What everyone is talking about is, of course, the personnel allocation between the Fifth and Fourth Divisions.
This is the most important thing right now.
But Director Bai first asked Director Lü, "Tell me what you need to do."
So Director Lü organized his thoughts and then told Director Bai what Lu Qiaoge had told him.
This office was quite lively before I arrived.
But when Director Lü started talking about the Feng family, everyone quieted down.
The main point is that you don't need to express your opinion on this matter; just listen.
It's just like listening to a story.
After listening, one leader said, "Is this for real? It feels like I'm listening to a storyteller."
Director Bai nodded: "Director Lü is right, it's true."
He then asked Director Lü again, "Um... is it okay if we just make a phone call?"
A straightforward older comrade said directly, "Lu Qiaoge is right. We were just trying anything, even if it seemed hopeless. It's perfectly normal for us to question the authenticity of this incident again and express our attitude. Besides, our official statement is that this matter is under investigation."
Director Bai nodded secretly, and Director Lü also breathed a sigh of relief.
Two people, however, wanted to maintain their differing opinions.
One of them said, "We don't actually have any evidence. Isn't this deception?"
Another person nodded in agreement: "Yes, Lu Qiaoge is just a newcomer. She's only been working for less than two days, and they've already adopted her suggestion. Isn't this a joke?"
The straightforward old comrade narrowed his eyes unhappily and said, "I've already said we're treating this as a last resort. Why can't we give it a try? All's fair in war, you know?"
The other two people fell silent.
Because this veteran comrade came from the battlefield and was a skilled fighter.
Of course, he's also good at talking; the two of them can't beat him.
