Chapter 1819

"Okay, Mr. Wu, I'll be right over!" Ye Xiao's response was also very straightforward and concise.

Since both parties knew it well, let's talk about it in detail after they met!

"Ye Xiao, how about I go back to the hotel first?" Davika said softly after Ye Xiao finished the call.

As smart as she is, she can see at this time that Wu Guozhang wants to discuss important matters with Ye Xiao, and she can't help if she goes.

Ye Xiao held Davika's hand, "No, let's go together!"

Ye Xiao was very pleased with such a sensible confidante. He didn't want Davika to think that she would hinder him.

Moreover, Davika was familiar with Wu Huiru and had accompanied him to Wu's house before. Now going with him could conceal the eyes and ears of those who were interested.

After negotiating with Davika, Ye Xiao asked the driver to turn around and went to Wu's house. On the way, Ye Xiao replied to Wu Chuanan with a text message.

He informed the other party that he was going to meet Wu Guozhang, and asked Wu Chunan to contact the second elder to ask what kind of countermeasures the Longguo government would take against Gao Qimei's behavior?

And what conditions could he offer to support the Wu family?

According to the consistent style of the Longguo government, Gao Qimei's faction would not be easily satisfied, and perhaps Penglai would be deterred militarily and economically.

These will be what Ye Xiao will talk about when he talks with Wu Guozhang later.

Revealing it to the Wu family, an ally, earlier will definitely make it easier for the Wu family to deal with Gao Qimei.

......

Twenty minutes later, Ye Xiao and Davika walked into the Wu Mansion together.

Wu Huiru, the third generation of the Wu family, came to the door to greet them in person.

After the three of them exchanged a few words, Wu Huiru led Ye Xiao to the courtyard where his grandfather Wu Guozhang was, and then left with Davika.

Ye Xiao met the old man of the Wu family for the second time in Wu Guozhang's study.

At this time, Wu Guozhang was sitting on a rattan chair, flipping through a newspaper.

Although he looked calm on the surface, Wu Guozhang could no longer calm down.

After announcing that he would participate in the Penglai leadership election, Wu Guozhang used some of the hidden chess pieces he had arranged in the past and some of the connections he had made to promote himself in order to increase his support rate.

Although the latest poll showed that his support rate was the lowest among the three popular candidates, it was only a dozen percentage points lower than that of Gao Qimei, who was in first place.

This was not bad for Wu Guozhang, who announced his candidacy in a hurry.

And he still had some hidden tricks that he had not used, and he believed that his support rate would continue to rise steadily.

However, the speeches of Gao Qimei and the commander-in-chief of the Penglai War Department caught Wu Guozhang off guard.

His campaign advantage is that he does not lean on either side. He is neither pro-M country nor pro-Longin. He only uses the implementation of the welfare and development of Penglai people as his campaign platform.

If the situation is stable, there will be many Penglai voters who support him, but Gao Qimei's sudden move will inevitably lead to conflicts between Penglai and Longin.

At that time, the Gu family, who advocates getting close to the inland, and Gao Qimei, who firmly turns away from the inland, will naturally attract more attention from voters.

Wu Guozhang must find a way to break the deadlock before the voters' emotions are fully mobilized.

"Mr. Wu!" Ye Xiao smiled and greeted Wu Guozhang.

"Mr. Ye, you are here! Sit down and talk!"

Wu Guozhang put down the newspaper in his hand, pointed to the chair opposite him, and motioned Ye Xiao to sit down.

Ye Xiao did not hesitate, walked over and sat opposite Wu Guozhang.

Wu Guozhang reached out and picked up the teapot beside him. While pouring tea for Ye Xiao, he said, "Mr. Ye, you and Jin girl did a great job on the Zhonghe Gate incident. You solved a headache for me."

"I have long wanted to invite you to come over to thank you and discuss our next cooperation."

Although Wu Guozhang wanted to talk to Ye Xiao the most about Gao Qimei's speech, as a skilled chess player, Wu Guozhang did not reveal his true intentions all at once, even when facing an ally.

Ye Xiao smiled and took a cup of tea from Wu Guozhang, saying, "Mr. Wu, you are too kind. I think with your ability, even without me and Master Situ, you can still deal with the rebellion of Zhonghe Gate!"

Of course, Ye Xiao knew that Wu Guozhang mentioned this matter to warm up the conversation they were about to have. He simply followed Wu Guozhang's words and praised Wu Guozhang.

This not only showed that he knew that Wu Guozhang had other cards in his hands, but also helped the two of them to discuss countermeasures.At the same time, let Wu Guozhang not put forward too high conditions to his side, and also play the cards in his hand.

"Haha!" Wu Guozhang laughed loudly.

"Mr. Ye, you think too highly of me, an old man. I am not like you and Jin girl, so young and strong, daring to fight and take risks. If I am not careful, my old bones will be broken."

How could Ye Xiao not see that Wu Guozhang was being modest? Just because Wu Guozhang had the confidence to come back and run for the leader of Penglai, he knew that Wu Guozhang's fighting spirit and aggressiveness were not inferior to his own.

"Mr. Wu, you called me here because of the news this morning!"

Ye Xiao didn't want to beat around the bush with Wu Guozhang anymore, so he brought the topic directly to the main topic.

Hearing this, Wu Guozhang gently put down the teacup in his hand, and his face became more serious, "Mr. Ye, if you were me, how would you deal with this big move released by Gao Qimei?"

After that, Wu Guozhang stared at Ye Xiao with his eyes sparkling.

Ye Xiao thought to himself, "If it were me and Gao Qimei, I would not be able to resist and would just slap him!"

For such a speculator who intends to seek a future for himself by splitting his motherland, the only correct way for a warrior to treat him is to slap him with a slap.

However, Ye Xiao understood that Wu Guozhang was not asking him what to do, but asking the Dragon Government he represented what kind of statement Wu Guozhang hoped to make.

"He fights his, we fight ours! Wait and see what happens. If the sky falls, it is not just us who want to hold it up." Ye Xiao said lightly.

In fact, these words were conveyed to Ye Xiao by Wu Chuannan, from the original words of the second elder.

Wu Guozhang, who heard these words, suddenly froze his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Although these words did not specifically tell Wu Guozhang what to do, for Wu Guozhang now, they were very sharp and pointed out a policy.

Gao Qimei has his cards to play, and I have my own cards, and Gao Qimei's move is not just aimed at me.

The Gu family, who are directly against Gao Qimei, are under much greater pressure than me.

Accordingly, the Gu family should be the first to make a move and counterattack Gao Qimei.
