Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

Chapter 1689 Tang Family’s Allies

Bai Rufeng's eyelids twitched: "Then are we shooting ourselves in the foot?"

Bai Rufeng betrayed Bai Rulei, and Bai Qingde also knew about it. He felt that after Bai Rulei's accident, the Bai family would either choose to cut off ties and start a high-level confrontation with the Tang family in Yanjing, or they would use the information they had accumulated over the years about the Tang family. There was evidence of violations of laws and disciplines and launched a counterattack against the Tang family.

Either way, Bai Qingde is profitable.

In the former case, the Bai family will be alienated from Chief Bai, leaving Bai Qingde with an opportunity to take advantage of.

In the latter case, since Bai Qingde had already greeted the Tang family, Chief Bai's counterattack could just allow Bai Qingde to gain the support of the Tang family. By cooperating internally and externally, he could lay a solid foundation for controlling the Bai family in the future.

As for Liu Fusheng, Bai Qingde believed that if Chief Bai didn't want to throw out his cards, he would probably send Liu Fusheng to eastern Guangdong Province to disrupt the situation.

Because in the whole Bai family, the only one who is capable and obedient is this son-in-law who has not yet married into the family.

Previously, one of the Tang family's sons died in Fengliao Province, and another son was defeated by Liu Fusheng head-on. His going to Guangdong Province would definitely arouse the Tang family's vigilance.

Based on the above considerations, Bai Qingde and Bai Rufeng will become the biggest winners in the Bai Rulei incident.

To make your son/brother an abandoned son, of course you need enough benefits in exchange.

Although Bai Rulei has the same bloodline as them, his work ability, behavior and other aspects are not satisfactory.

It can be said that Bai Rulei reached his current position entirely because of his connections with the Bai family. His current position is already the pinnacle of his career.

Bai Rulei is a minor official with little real power and is at the deputy department level. His influence in Yanjing, which is everywhere at the department and bureau level, is almost negligible.

Rather than letting him waste his life in obscurity, it would be better to use his identity to burst out a brief light to illuminate the path forward for his brother and father.

Moreover, even if Bai Rulei withdraws from officialdom, as long as Bai Qingde controls the Bai family, he can be like Tang Shaoxiong, who, after being dismissed from office or even serving a short sentence, can turn to business and make money for the family, and he can also live a life of entertainment, singing and dancing. A good day for peace.

It's a pity that neither father nor son expected that Chief Bai would come up with countermeasures that they did not expect.

Let the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection come forward and dispatch a special task force to Chaojiang City, Eastern Guangdong Province, to investigate the maritime smuggling case.

This move was extremely jumpy, catching the Bai family, his son, and the Tang family by surprise.

After all, the Bai family's power is not in eastern Guangdong, and the smuggling situation in eastern Guangdong Province has been well covered up by Tang Shaoying and a group of corrupt bureaucrats.

This sudden investigation exposed many problems for them.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the Tang family could continue to use Bai Rulei's incident to argue with each other and check and balance each other with the Bai family's move to eastern Guangdong Province to investigate the smuggling case.

In fact, given Bai Rulei's identity, the Tang family still has a slight advantage.

However, the current situation is abnormal. The Tang family's operations in eastern Guangdong Province have reached a very critical moment, and they don't want anyone, especially organizations with Chinese prefixes, to come and disrupt the situation.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the Tang family chose to take a step back and give up pursuing Bai Rulei in exchange for peace in eastern Guangdong Province.

However, the Tang family's concession did not earn the Bai family equal treatment. As for the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, the task force sent to eastern Guangdong Province refused to leave and remained in Chaojiang City.

At present, allies of the Tang family and Chaojiang City judge that the task force is likely to have substantive evidence in their hands. This evidence can even attract the attention of high-level officials.

Based on the above situation, Tang Shaoxiong was ordered to run to Yanjing and meet Bai Rufeng.

After Bai Rufeng and Bai Qingde reported these situations, they both fell into deep thought.

A few minutes later, Bai Qingde said slowly: "I don't know anything about the situation in eastern Guangdong Province. Your uncle has blocked the information very strictly. I'm afraid we won't be able to help the Tang family."

Bai Rufeng frowned and said, "Father, if we can't come up with a solution, the Tang family will definitely not give up."

Bai Qingde said with a smile: "If they had their way, they wouldn't contact us. Could it be that if the Tang family can't offend your uncle, they would operate on both of us? What good would that do to them?"

"Your brother has been thrown out as an abandoned son. Isn't that enough to prove our sincerity? The Tang family has given up on allies like us just to avenge themselves? It shouldn't be justified, right?"

A series of questions, each of which makes sense.

Bai Rufeng sighed: "So you mean, we just let it go?"

Bai Qingde said: "We have no control over this matter. You are still young and don't understand at all how ferocious your uncle's methods are against the enemy and how tightly he controls the family. If not, I would not throw your brother away." go."

"The Bai family looks very loose on the surface, but it can firmly stand in the first echelon among many aristocratic families in Yanjing, and it also has frequent dealings with the Tang family. Do you think our family is weak? You Uncle, don’t you have any ability?”

"But……"

Bai Rufeng still wanted to say a few words, but Bai Qingde had already interrupted him: "It's nothing to worry about. We have already made sacrifices. Your uncle also has a grudge against us. What happens next will be difficult to handle. Don't restore Tang Shaoxiong. Just delay."

Sometimes, not replying is also a kind of reply.

Bai Rufeng nodded silently and said, "Okay, I understand, father."

……

At the same time, everyone in the Tang family was also holding an online video conference.

Mr. Tang, Tang Shaoxiong and Tang Shaohao are all in Yanjing. Only Tang Shaoying is thousands of miles away and needs video connection.

When Tang Shaoying's face appeared on the monitor, Tang Shaoxiong took the lead and said: "I have met Bai Rufeng according to my father's wishes. I feel that Bai Rufeng did not understand what I meant, but Bai Qingde should understand."

Mr. Tang said: "Bai Qingde still has certain abilities. When Lao Bai was under investigation for his son's affairs, Bai Qingde made a lot of efforts. Without him, it would be difficult for Lao Bai to stand up."

Tang Shaoying said: "That proves that Bai Qingde is very loyal to Chief Bai."

Mr. Tang said: "At this moment, at that moment, Bai Qingde may have thought that if Lao Bai's son died, his two sons would have the opportunity to get involved in the center of power of the Bai family... Unfortunately, he made a wrong calculation. After Lao Bai came out, , the status of Bai Qingde and his two sons has not been improved at all."

"Lao Bai even found a capable son-in-law for his daughter. In this case, Bai Qingde will definitely feel very uncomfortable."

"He was so cruel that he sent his useless young son fishing. I'm afraid this is also the reason."

The three sons listened quietly to Mr. Tang's instructions.

After analyzing Bai Qingde's character and resume, Mr. Tang thought for a while and said: "Shaoxiong, please call Bai Rufeng later and tell them that the Tang family will not treat any allies badly. If something happens in Eastern Guangdong Province, they If you can’t solve it, then just stand aside and make your own safety your first priority.”

When Tang Shaohao heard this, he frowned and said, "Father, they can't help with anything, so what qualifications do they have to be allies of the Tang family?"
