I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 2256: Chapter 2257: Lin Family, Will Not Be Subordinate to Others

Hearing Liang Xianghe’s words, Liang Ruoxu looked at Lin Yi with surprise, not expecting him to have done such embarrassing things.

Lin Yi also felt a bit awkward.

“You really have no loyalty, how could you spill all my secrets? They say ‘a gift of goose feather sent from afar shows profound friendship.’ I was in a hurry last time and didn’t have time to buy you anything else, and you still hold a grudge,” Lin Yi said reluctantly, with a pout.

“Besides, didn’t I bring you plenty of vegetables and fruits that I grew in Happiness Village? Stop nitpicking my flaws.”

“Alright, alright, just come in,” Liang Xianghe said,

“If I really picked on you, you wouldn’t even be able to enter my house.”

Liang Ruoxu gave Lin Yi several disdainful glances.

It seemed that in all of China, Lin Yi was the only one who dared to treat Liang Xianghe this way.

Others were scrambling to give gifts without even a chance, yet he only brought a box of pure milk and cherries; it was beyond comprehension.

The two were received by Song Yuzhen in the house, “Neither of you hurry to leave today, let’s talk after lunch.”

“Then I won’t be polite.”

Liang Ruoxu took off his coat, sat down with Song Yuzhen, and they chatted in low voices while making tea for each other.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi and Liang Xianghe sat on the couch.

Lin Yi poured a cup for him, and they leisurely began to drink.

“Liang Elder, how are things recently in Yanjing? They should all be behaving now, right?”

“The Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce has collapsed, and these Yanjing families have really settled down a lot,” Liang Xianghe sighed, “But it doesn’t matter to me anymore. At this point, it has basically reached its limit; they are no longer in my consideration.”

“But I always feel that things are too peaceful,” Lin Yi took a sip of tea, sharing his thoughts, “Since you disbanded the entire Fourth Group, I’ve been worried about this, afraid they might cause trouble. Although they engaged in a lot of underhanded dealings secretly, overall, they didn’t stir up trouble and were much more behaved than I imagined.”

“Do you think they might be driven to desperate acts and do something outrageous?” Liang Xianghe asked with a smile.

“Exactly.”

“You aren’t wrong to think that,” Liang Xianghe lamented, “but they still have another way out, so their behavior isn’t as radical as you imagined.”

“Another way out?” Lin Yi frowned, “With the pressure from this incident, they’re supposed to be finished, with no room for further development. How could there be another way out?”

“There’s probably no chance domestically, but they could go overseas. The Zhou family is the perfect example,” Liang Xianghe explained,

“They are trading E-class serum with the Freemasons just to strengthen their own forces and secure a place overseas. With that, the domestic market becomes dispensable for them.”

“Developing overseas…”

Lin Yi muttered, Liang Xianghe’s words giving him a wake-up call.

Because to some extent, this indeed seemed like a viable pathway.

“I guess next, these families might band together and form an alliance overseas, settle in a small country, and follow the Freemasons’ development path.”

“If that’s the case, it honestly doesn’t bother me,” Lin Yi said,

“Ridding of such menaces, one less is one less, brings peace.”

“They won’t be able to leave,” Liang Xianghe smiled with a hint of contempt,

“The assets of these families are much more than you think. If they transferred all this money out, it would be a huge loss for China, so they can leave, but the money must stay.”

Hearing this, Lin Yi understood Liang Xianghe’s plan.

Just like Old Wang in previous years, who received heavy sanctions after madly investing abroad and crossing the line set by the regulatory authority. Lin Yi understood,

“Now, Liang Elder intends to do the same thing; people can leave, but the money must stay.”

“Are there any signs yet, which families are showing such tendencies?”

“There are no specific signs yet, but I guess they are all restless,” Liang Xianghe said,

“The Zhou family you investigated is likely to take the lead. If they succeed, other families will definitely follow suit.”

“So…”

“So, we need to severely punish the Zhou family, right? Hit the leading bird hard and crush them thoroughly.”

Liang Xianghe nodded, “I’ve already ordered the Central Guards Brigade to thoroughly investigate this matter. When the time comes, handle it properly. If these people aren’t knocked down, they’ll think they can do whatever they want.”

“Rest assured, I promise to handle this clearly.”

Liang Xianghe nodded again and glanced toward the kitchen.

Seeing Liang Ruoxu and his spouse chatting and laughing in the kitchen, preparing vegetables for the lunch, seemingly unaware of their conversation.

“How are things with the Lin family back in Zhong Hai? Can the Guardian Brigade’s work still proceed normally?”

“How do you know everything? Did you install surveillance in my house?”

“Like I don’t know about your trifles,” Liang Xianghe remarked,

“I won’t interfere with other matters, but Mi Li, that girl, I watched her grow up. Treat her well, otherwise I won’t be able to explain myself to Old Liang later.”

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”

“Then get ready, there might be an island mission after the New Year. First familiarize yourself with the island, so when it’s time to execute the mission, you won’t be clueless.”

“Ready whenever.”

“But try to arrange something lighter for me; if I die out there, she’ll have to live as a widow, and then you really won’t be able to face her grandfather.”

“You little scoundrel, now you’re ordering me around.”

“I’m just stating the truth. Who doesn’t love a life where their spouse and warm bed are secure?”

“But without going through trials and tribulations, you can’t be tempered into steel.”

Liang Xianghe rolled the tea cup in his hand, looking intrigued,

“This material, after being baked at thousands of degrees, turns into something worth millions. If you don’t face hardships, your life will remain the same.”

“Well, isn’t that pretty good as well? No worries about food or shortage,” Lin Yi laughed.

“If you really meant that, I’d let you go back,” Liang Xianghe looked at Lin Yi with a smile, “Would you really leave?”

“So you’re sure I won’t want to leave?”

“Even if you did, it’d end up the same; you’d still do what you have to…”

As he spoke, Liang Xianghe suddenly paused, his gaze drifting off as if he was lost in memories.

“The Lin family, will never yield to others.”
