He won 900 million in the lottery.

Chapter 364 Tian Family

Lotus City.

Clubhouse.

Zheng Wei was in the living room, looking somewhat frightened. He had arranged to meet Yuan Shao and had secretly left home alone that morning, but before he could even get into the car, he was caught red-handed by Xiao Mai and her men.

"Brother Mai, where are my wife and daughter?"

Xiaomai, a cigarette dangling from his lips, said, "Now you're thinking about your wife and kids? What were you thinking when you betrayed my brother?"

"My wife doesn't know about my affairs. This was all my decision. You can let them go, but I'll stay and serve the Shen family like a slave."

"Whether you stay or leave, whether you live or die, is not something you can decide."

Organ donation has formal and legal channels.

But who gets to use it is another matter.

In the underground black market, some people sell organ donation information from living people. Naturally, some dying people can't wait, which leads to illegal activities.

Thus, the He family's business was born.

HK.

My original plan was to leave, but the He family's ministerial-level shareholder surprisingly agreed to meet with me immediately.

"They seem a bit impatient."

Ji Xindi's eyes widened: "Old Hei and the others can't leave; they have to stay and protect us."

"No need. Some methods, if they don't work the first time, won't be used a second time. If something goes wrong again, the whole world will know that it's related to the He family."

Day three.

Stanley Ho and his daughter appeared together.

"That person has already arrived in Hong Kong, so we can head there now."

Ji Xin and I exchanged a glance and boarded the plane.

This is a private estate, a private estate hidden on the rooftop.

There is a helipad in the yard.

There were guards at the door of the house.

Although there was no actual body search, my whole body was still scanned several times.

He Hong and his daughter didn't go in, and Ji Xin was also stopped at the door, leaving only me to enter.

There was only one person in the room, completely at ease. I had never seen him before, but I recognized him.

The second-in-command of Dong Province, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, the Governor, and a ministerial-level official.

Luo Guoqing.

"Governor Luo."

"Mr. Shen, please sit down, have some tea, and have a chat."

Sister Tong is the executive vice governor. She will be promoted to his level in a few more years.

These next few years might be a lifetime, or perhaps it will be time to retire.

Before coming here, I thought the Ho family had immense influence and connections, capable of mobilizing ministerial-level officials.

After arriving, I realized that I had mistakenly entered the Heavenly Palace. The He family meant that when they said they were going to submit an application, they really meant to.

Governor Luo is not a shareholder.

The He family is not a partner either.

The relationship between the two is that of the master and the white glove.

"I heard from He Hong that Boss Shen has always wanted to win the integrated livelihood project in Dong Province?"

"Yes."

My goal is clear: the four provinces—east, west, south, and north—must be united into a single, unbreakable entity, just like our base in the south.

"Robbing the rich to help the poor—a brilliant idea from the academic world—has actually been realized in a young man. The younger generation is truly formidable."

I touched my nose, about to say something modest.

"You have a good wife, a woman who is just as capable as any man, and the mantle of Grand Secretary Cheng has finally been passed on."

,,,,

It turns out it wasn't a compliment.

Luo Guoqing gave me a half-smile and said, "Do you think you're very capable?"

I shrugged my shoulders, the meaning was clear.

"Starting from scratch, he amassed a vast fortune and earned the reputation of 'King of Southern Province.' Not bad."

In my entire life, compared to Luo Guoqing, who was at the ministerial level, is this all I've ever received?

"Robbing the rich to help the poor isn't so easy to achieve. Do you think it's your achievement that you were able to turn Nan Province into a unified entity? You had Grand Secretary Cheng backing you up from above, the Yang family holding the line locally, and Secretary Yu Qingbin, who came from an academic background, giving you a push. That's how you created a model for Nan Province."

Upon summarizing the situation, Luo Guoqing realized that the integrated livelihood project was indeed quite complex.

"Have you considered what would happen if you failed?"

I didn't say anything. I had a feeling that Luo Guoqing was giving me a lesson, and that he was trying to guide me into the door of the business.

That gate to the Heavenly Palace.

"If you fail, the first to suffer will be the hundreds of millions of people in the Southern Province, who will suddenly return to a life of hardship. Then will be the businessmen, enterprises, and people in the middle management of the system who were dragged down by you, all of whom will be in debt. Finally, those high-ranking officials who supported you, including your sister, Governor Yang, and Secretary Yu, will all have to report to the authorities. The market economy of the Southern Province will be in chaos, and your wife will also return to mediocrity."

Give a slap, then offer a sweet treat.

First suppress, then elevate.

The more Luo Guoqing acted this way, the more certain I became that he had his eye on the integrated livelihood project.

"What is your understanding of 'robbing the rich to help the poor'?"

I've organized my thoughts.

"Killing the rich means killing the rich who are heartless and those who occupy social resources but do not give back to society. Helping the poor means helping the bottom of society, not just the poor. As long as the bottom of society, the poor, exists, some people will eventually be eliminated and fall into the trap of the poor."

Luo Guoqing shook his head.

"That's true, and that's not true either."

"I would appreciate Governor Luo's guidance."

"The reason you can sit here patiently and listen to my instructions is because I am a ministerial-level leader. The reason you were able to fully implement the integrated livelihood project in Nan Province is because Jingcheng has the Grand Secretary and Nan Province has Yu Qingbin. Relying on the rich to kill the rich will inevitably arouse public anger, and the poor who are helped will not appreciate your kindness. In the end, it is still the same class, the country is still the country, and society is still society, only with your meddling in it."

[Take the leader's words the wrong way. This means, "I'm a ministerial-level official, you have to listen to me. Because you have powerful connections, the integrated livelihood project was able to succeed. But even if the integrated livelihood project succeeds, in the end, those people are still the same people, and society is still society. The only difference is that you stirred things up and successfully jumped yourself from the bottom to the top."]

Luo Guoqing's words make a very simple point.

However, this bloody fact is a slap in the face.

"Isn't the very reason Governor Luo agreed to meet with me because he's eyeing the benefits of the integrated livelihood project?"

"If I want it, you can't refuse. If I don't want it, then the four provinces—east, west, south, and north—will always be missing one province."

I always feel powerless when faced with people like that.

He lacks nothing, yet he wants everything.

"No. Since we were able to meet, it must be because of some exchange of interests. Whether you saw the benefits of the integrated livelihood project or not, you have countless other benefits elsewhere."

Luo Guoqing gave me an appreciative look: "Not bad, quick reaction."

"I wonder if Governor Luo needs me to run errands for him?"

I meant to say "help," but those two words were inappropriate.

"Eastern Province is a major province for civil service exams in the country, with complex and intertwined political relationships. Even though I hold a high position, I also have my own worries."

"With your position, power, and status as the second-in-command of the province, what wealth or connections do you possess? Forgive my bluntness, but I truly cannot imagine what Governor Luo could possibly have to worry about."

"You said I'm the second-in-command of the province."

……

"Governor Luo, do you want me dead?"
