Three days later, when Gao Ren and his group arrived in Chiang Rai by helicopter,

Li Yi and his group were already waiting at the airport.

"salute!"

At Li Yi's command, the soldiers on both sides of the red carpet immediately gave a standard salute.

Upon seeing this, Gao Ren chuckled and said,

"Commander Li, when did you start liking this kind of formalism!"

Faced with Gao Ren's teasing, Li Yi smiled slightly and said...

"General Gao, how can this be considered formalism!"

"If it weren't for General Gao's contributions, how could I and my soldiers have achieved such merits!"

Since Li Yi has already said that, what else can Gao Ren say?

As the convoy arrived at the entrance of a manor covering hundreds of acres, Zhao Yi, the eldest of the three Zhao brothers, who had been waiting there for a long time,

He immediately stepped forward and opened the car door for Gao Ren; his movements were so standard...

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was a professional driver!

"Mr. Zhao, you're too kind!"

Before coming to Chiang Rai, even if Gao Ren had a gun to his head, Zhao Yi wouldn't have had the nerve to open the car door for him!

But these past few days in Chiang Rai...

It completely shattered the last bit of self-esteem and pride he had left!

Cody, the once powerful warlord who had dominated the Golden Triangle, was besieged by the troops led by Li Yi.

He couldn't even last a day before completely collapsing.

If it were just this, Zhao Yi wouldn't have gone this far.

But after he personally heard Tai, Lao, and Mian admit that the Golden Triangle was Gao Ren's territory,

Having been in this business for so many years, Zhao Yi knew that as long as Gao Ren and the North didn't fall out,

Then no one can shake Gao Ren's position here!

"Mr. Gao, you're too kind!"

"This estate is the largest and best-equipped estate in all of Chiang Rai!"

"But what's most enviable is that the owner of this place is Mr. Gao!"

"After all, as the ancient poem says, 'A mountain is not sacred if there are no immortals there, and a body of water is not sacred if there are no dragons there!'"

Cultured people are really something else when it comes to flattery; they even use classical Chinese poems!

"Mr. Zhao, thank you so much!"

"As long as your Zhao family behaves itself from now on, I, Gao Ren, guarantee your Zhao family wealth and prosperity!"

Upon hearing Gao Ren say this in front of Li Yi, Zhao Yi bowed with a satisfied expression, gesturing for him to proceed.

"Mr. Gao, ladies, and Commander Li!"

"Lunch is ready, everyone please!"

At the dining table, Gao Ren asked Li Yi while eating,

"Commander Li, when will the Golden Triangle be completely under my control?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yi gave a look to the guard behind him.

Immediately, the guard pushed over a map of the Golden Triangle.

"General Gao, the Golden Triangle has a very special geographical location. Hills, dense forests, and swamps are some of the unique terrain features that are found throughout the Golden Triangle!"

"It is precisely for this reason that the Golden Triangle became a paradise for warlords!"

"Therefore, it will take a very long time to transform the entire Golden Triangle into a unified whole!"

"And with just our 20,000 men... it's far from enough!"

After hearing Li Yi's explanation, Gao Ren, who wasn't the type to be unable to accept the truth, relented and asked,

"Would it be alright to first control the Mekong River basin and ensure unobstructed navigation?"

As Gao Ren finished speaking, Li Yi pointed to the Mekong River on the map and said,

"General Gao, this is no problem!"

"I have already contacted General Eight-Faced Buddha, in addition to jointly deploying troops to patrol the Mekong River,"

"We are also building military camps and stationing troops in some key locations!"

"Once these barracks are completed, they can serve as forward bases to strengthen our control over the surrounding area!"

Leave professional tasks to professionals; this has always been Gao Ren's work style.

"Um!"

"From now on, military matters will be handled by you, Division Commander Li. Just let Mu Yan and A Jing know if you need anything!"

"Yes, General Gao!"

As Li Yi took his seat, Gao Ren's gaze fell on Meng Na and Hu Jing.

"Have the locations for the casinos and nightclubs been chosen yet?"

Hu Jing elegantly wiped her mouth, and as she put down the silk handkerchief, a servant pushed in a map of Chiang Rai.

Hu Jing pointed to the red circle on the map and said,

"This is the city center of Chiang Rai, and also the most bustling area in Chiang Rai!"

"My intentions with Mona are very simple!"

"Build the casino and nightclub here, making this the most luxurious casino and nightclub on the southeastern peninsula, a landmark of Chiang Rai!"

"At the same time, we will develop Chiang Rai into a city that never sleeps, just like Macau and Las Vegas!"

"If we succeed, the amount of US dollars we will earn in the future will be countless!"

In later generations, this place will naturally be a popular tourist destination. As long as the security situation is maintained, it may not become a world-famous city like Macau or Las Vegas.

It can definitely become a top-notch tourist city!

"The idea is good, but the security situation must be improved!"

"Don't you have an assassin organization under your command?"

"Let them work as security guards for a few days first, and deal with all the disobedient ones!"

"Remember, even if you kill the wrong person, you must never let one go!"

"I don't want to spend so much effort to conquer this territory, only to hear news of kidnappings and murders every other day!"

Hu Jing knew how important Chiang Rai was to Gao Ren in the future, so she nodded and said...

"I see!"

"I will work together with Mr. Zhao on this matter."
