Chapter 1820

In fact, before Ye Xiao came, Wu Guozhang had also conceived a series of coping strategies in his mind, which were roughly equivalent to what Ye Xiao said.

Ye Xiao's words were a brilliant summary of these strategies.

"Mr. Ye's words make sense. I, an old man, have already made plans, but I'm afraid that the effect will not be great if I just make a few moves. Mr. Ye, do you know how the Gu family and the inland government will make moves?"

Wu Guozhang no longer beat around the bush with Ye Xiao, and asked directly the question he cared about most.

Now the inland government of Longguo openly supports the Gu family, and the two sides will inevitably make joint moves to respond. As for how and what the two sides will do specifically? He didn't know.

But Ye Xiao should know the inside story.

Ye Xiao did not hide it, and directly told Wu Guozhang the instructions given by the second elder in a concise and concise manner.

At the government level, in addition to condemning the Penglai authorities internationally, Longguo will also tighten some preferential policies for Penglai in terms of economy.

In addition, the Longguo War Department will also hold a third military exercise around Penglai, codenamed A, in response to the military exercises of Penglai and M Country.

While listening to Ye Xiao's statement about the countermeasures of the Longguo government, Wu Guozhang was also thinking rapidly about how he could use the information told by Ye Xiao to make arrangements that would be beneficial to him in advance.

"As for what the Gu family will do? I haven't received any specific information yet, and the Gu family seems to have noticed something strange and may have reservations about our people."

Ye Xiao continued.

Last time at Chu Tiantai's birthday banquet, the Gu family arranged Yang Jing and Gu Xinglong to interrogate Qi Tianwu.

Although Ye Xiao's timely appearance interrupted the conversation of the three people that time, Yang Jing and Gu Xinglong's plan did not succeed.

But this also reminded Ye Xiao and the other two that the Gu family had doubts about the true attitude of the Longguo government.

Accordingly, the Gu family would definitely not tell Qi Tianwu all the inside stories related to the Gu family's election.

"Yes!" Wu Guozhang nodded, expressing his understanding.

He was naturally very clear about what kind of opponent Gu Changqing was. Ye Xiao and his party had been in Penglai for more than ten days. If Gu Changqing had not found anything unusual, it would be abnormal.

However, he was a little regretful. If he could find out how the Gu family was going to fight back, he would be more at ease.

At this time, an unexpected news came to Ye Xiao and Wu Guozhang.

"Grandpa, Gu Changqing came to our house and asked to see you alone." Wu Huiru pushed open the door of the study and said with a complicated look.

Gu Changqing's sudden visit was beyond Wu Huiru's expectations, because since Wu Guozhang announced that he would participate in the election, the Wu family and the Gu family have been competitors. It would be very good if they did not set up a battle array against each other.

Now Gu Changqing actually came to the door in person, which naturally made Wu Huiru wonder what Gu Changqing was planning.

After hearing what Wu Huiru said, Ye Xiao and Wu Guozhang looked at each other, and both of them thought of the same thing.

That is, Gu Changqing must have come here for Gao Qimei.

Perhaps this is also a part of the Gu family's response measures that Ye Xiao and Wu Guozhang are both interested in.

"Mr. Wu, you meet Gu Changqing first, let's talk later!"

After saying that, Ye Xiao stood up. As for what Gu Changqing wanted to do, Ye Xiao naturally wanted to know it first, because it was crucial for his cooperation with the Wu family.

So he couldn't just say goodbye and leave at this time.

However, to Ye Xiao's surprise, Wu Guozhang stopped Ye Xiao, "Mr. Ye, there is a compartment in my study. If you don't mind, you can wait for me in there for a while!"

Wu Guozhang recognized Ye Xiao's ability. He wanted to get Ye Xiao's full support. Letting Ye Xiao directly hear the conversation between him and Gu Changqing was the best way to show his honest attitude.

Ye Xiao glanced at Wu Guozhang and nodded quickly.

Wu Guozhang's behavior was somewhat similar to the last time Wu Shouzhuo asked Ye Xiao and others to listen in on his conversation with Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang, but the two were fundamentally different.

When Wu Shouzhuo asked a few people to listen in, he did not make up his mind to cooperate with Ye Xiao and others. He even wanted Ye Xiao and others to understand the situation of the Wu family and retreat when they knew it was difficult.

Wu Guozhang was determined to form an alliance with the forces represented by Ye Xiao in order to enhance mutual trust.

A few minutes later, Gu Changqing slowly walked into the study.

"Brother Wu, I came here uninvited. I hope I didn't disturb you!" Gu Changqing said to Wu Guozhang with a bright smile as soon as he entered the door.

It was impossible to tell that the two sides were political opponents, but rather likeThey are old friends who often visit each other.

"Brother Gu, what are you talking about? We have worked together for 30 years. Although you have retired behind the scenes, I admire your administrative ability. I really want to get your advice!"

Wu Guozhang stood up and said with a smile.

His words were not all flattery. Gu Changqing had served as the leader of Penglai, and Wu Guozhang had been an official for 30 years, and the highest he could achieve was the director of the Administrative Department.

Although this was related to the two people's governing philosophy and did not mean that Gu Changqing's political skills were better than Wu Guozhang's, he had been Wu Guozhang's boss after all. Now Wu Guozhang's words would not make people feel that he was deliberately flattering.

And Wu Guozhang's words had another layer of meaning.

That was to secretly point out that he had guessed Gu Changqing's intention and asked the latter not to keep him in suspense.

Gu Changqing chuckled, "Brother Wu, I can't say I'm here to teach you. I came here to do something with you. I hope you won't reject me just because we are from different factions!"

Since Wu Guozhang guessed what he was here for, Gu Changqing no longer hid it.

"Brother Gu, you're joking. Today we are not divided by factions. We are just two old men who hope Penglai will have a good future. We are chatting privately." As he spoke, Wu Guozhang extended his hand and invited Gu Changqing to sit down.

Just like when he entertained Ye Xiao just now, Wu Guozhang was still polite and poured a cup of tea for Gu Changqing himself.

Gu Changqing picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then took the lead in opening the topic.

He said indignantly: "Brother Wu, you should know what Commander Gao said today!"

"That is disregarding the interests of our nation and trying to drag our Penglai people into the quagmire of war!"

In the compartment, Ye Xiao, who heard Gu Changqing's words, immediately sneered.

"You are right."

Although Wu Guozhang also found Gu Changqing's words ridiculous, since the two of them had sat down to chat, he couldn't reach out and hit Gu Changqing in the face.
