Chapter 333 Secret Words from Grandparents and Grandchildren
Old Man Cheng had a sinister smile on his face, stretched out his skinny paws and patted Mr. Cheng's leg, saying: "You can relax about this, a dead person will never tell the truth."
"Grandpa, have you already put them..." Mr. Cheng looked at Old Man Cheng in shock for a while before he opened his mouth to express his doubts.
After a pause, he continued: "But after all, they are all well-known figures in the southwest region. Killing them all for no apparent reason would be difficult to explain to the superiors and their families, and the superiors are now thinking of finding us.
It’s trouble at home, grandpa, aren’t you giving them a handle by doing this?”
Old man Cheng laughed and said: "Hahaha! What's there to explain? They took advantage of their positions and used the country's money to speculate on futures in the futures market. In the end, they caused huge losses to the company and huge losses to state-owned assets, because they were afraid of suffering.
Because they were severely punished by the law, they collectively committed suicide by taking poison. Isn't this a very reasonable thing?"
Old man Cheng sneered and continued: "Our Cheng family has not been caught by the higher authorities in recent years. Anyway, we are all going to settle the accounts in the future. We, the Cheng family, don't care about letting them catch one more handle."
Seeing that his grandfather had solved all aspects of this matter, Mr. Cheng couldn't help but extend his thumb and sincerely praised: "High, really high!"
"You all go out and wait, we and I want to catch up on old times." Old man Cheng suddenly turned his head and issued an eviction order to other people in the office.
Several of Old Man Cheng's close bodyguards and Mr. Cheng's mistress, secretary Zhang Li, knew that Old Man Cheng must be discussing some confidential matters with Mr. Cheng, so they wisely exited the office and closed the door.
Mr. Cheng glanced at his grandfather in the wheelchair strangely. He didn't understand why the old man wanted to drive these "own people" out. Is there any secret that they couldn't know?
"Do you know why I kicked them out?" Old Man Cheng asked.
"I don't know." Mr. Cheng replied honestly.
"You have to remember that no one in this world can be completely trusted except yourself. The most core secrets can always be in your own hands. And you should always make the people around you think that you are inscrutable. Never let others think that you are incomprehensible.
They have figured you out, otherwise if the day comes they will not hesitate to overthrow you and replace you." Old Man Cheng seriously taught his grandson how to control his subordinates.
"Grandson, remember this!" Mr. Cheng said after being taught.
"My grandfather and grandson haven't had a drink and chat together for a long time. Let's go get a bottle of golden whiskey and let us have a drink." Old man Cheng said to Mr. Cheng with a smile.
Although Mr. Cheng always felt that his grandfather was a little weird today, he always obeyed his old man's words.
He honestly took out a bottle of golden whiskey from his collection from the wine cabinet in the office, and poured himself and his grandfather a glass each.
After taking the wine glass handed over by his grandson, Old Man Cheng asked him to push himself to the large floor-to-ceiling window in the office, pointing to the city outside the window and saying with emotion: "Chongqing, there are so many famous people in history, here is Zhang Mo in the late Ming Dynasty.
In the land of Zhonglongxing, the grass dragon Zhang Xianzhong was able to establish himself in the southwest, which made the Ming Dynasty helpless, but it had its success, that is, the southwest has had the aura of kings since ancient times. Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi in the early Qing Dynasty, killed him here in the late Ming Dynasty.
The little emperor was made king by the Qing Dynasty. It was unimaginable for a Han at that time. More than ten years later, Pingxi King Wu Sangui was forced to rebel and proclaim himself emperor under the Qing Dynasty's policy of reducing troops and eliminating vassals.
Monk Geng Jingzhong and Monk Kexi communicated with each other from a distance, which caused a brief turmoil in the prosperous age of the Qing Dynasty at that time. Although it failed in the end, it wrote a lot in history. In modern times, after Japan invaded China, Nanjing, the then capital,
After the fall of China, the government was forced to move to Wuhan. Soon after the battle of Wuhan failed, the Nationalist government had no choice but to move to Chongqing. Why did it move to Chongqing? That’s because there are still dragon veins here, and it was precisely because of the move to Chongqing that China was not invaded by the Japanese in the end.
Destruction..."
Mr. Cheng couldn't help but frowned when he heard his grandfather talk about the history of Chongqing that he had heard him tell almost eight hundred times. He couldn't figure out what his grandfather wanted to express.
Old Cheng sighed with emotion and suddenly turned around and asked Mr. Cheng next to him: "I say these words to let you understand that this ancient city has witnessed the decline of many glorious families and how many heroes have been buried there.
His lofty ideals, and although our Cheng family may seem to have infinite glory on the surface, we cannot escape the fate of history in the end, and this day is not far away from our Cheng family!"
After hearing what Mr. Cheng said, Mr. Cheng said: "Grandpa, you mean..."
He waved his hand to stop Young Master Cheng from speaking and said, "Do you know Chiang Kai-shek?"
Mr. Cheng nodded. Although he had no interest in history, he grew up in the city of Chongqing and knew about Chiang Kai-shek, who had ruled China for more than 20 years.
"Do you think our Cheng family is more powerful in the southwest than Chiang Kai-shek back then?" Old Man Cheng then asked.
"It should be Chiang Kai-shek. He was the leader of China at that time, and he personally appointed almost all officials, large and small, in the southwest region." Mr. Cheng replied.
Old man Cheng looked at the city outside the window and said with emotion: "Yes, Chiang Kai-shek only ruled this city for more than ten years at that time. The reason why our Cheng family has been able to rule the southwest is because there are still some problems with me, an old immortal."
That’s why we don’t dare to touch our Cheng family right away because of our scruples.”
After coughing, Mr. Cheng said again: "In order to maintain the dominance of our Cheng family in the southwest over the years, I have offended many people in the southwest, and I have almost offended all the leaders in the central government. If
I really went to see Marx suddenly that day, and I really can’t imagine what the fate of our Cheng family will end up in!"
Master Cheng pondered in his mind for a long time but still couldn't figure out the meaning of the old man's words, so he humbly asked: "What do you mean, grandpa?"
