The fact that Master Hei has risen to his current status and position shows that he is exceptionally shrewd and calculating.

He had a better plan than anyone else when it came to promoting Hu Zi.

Li Weidong, whether it was initially growing mushrooms, reselling Moutai liquor, or everything else that followed, all demonstrated his strength.

Hei Siye knew better than anyone that in the eyes of outsiders, he was the underground emperor of the Mengbei region, wielding immense power.

In reality, however, the higher-ups have been keeping a close eye on him, and his businesses are not doing well; in fact, they have begun to decline.

Li Weidong, however, is a rising star.

One is the rising sun in the east, and the other is the afterglow of the setting sun in the west. If they were to clash, the outcome would be hard to predict.

Therefore, he needs to find a way out for himself.

The agency rights for Kongfu Family Wine are just the first step.

Master Hei had already planned it all out.

Regardless of what happens to Kongfu Family Liquor in the future, at least for now it's a sure-fire way to make money. We can use Kongfu Family Liquor to slowly clean up our own business.

And Tiger was the perfect scapegoat he pushed out!

If nothing goes wrong, fine. But if something does go wrong, Tiger can take the blame while I escape unscathed!

Tan Jun finally understood, and gave a thumbs-up with admiration: "Fourth Master, you're amazing!"

Master Hei smiled without saying a word.

The title of a worthless godson can be exchanged for a loyal and devoted subordinate like Tiger. It's a sure win!

Tan Jun immediately said, "Then I'll give the order to have my men fawn over him."

Only when the incentives are plentiful will the oxen and horses work harder.

Go!

Master Hei waved his hand and then instructed, "Tell them to be careful lately, and not to give them any leverage."

These are turbulent times!

...

After Tiger became the godfather of Master Hei, he was incredibly powerful.

After all, all of Master Hei's subordinates, and even the heads of all his businesses, treated him with utmost respect.

With the distribution rights for Kongfu Family Wine in hand, he was no longer short of money and could practically walk sideways.

After making money, the first thing Tiger did was buy back his own house.

Most of the villagers deeply resented Hu Zi's family, and many of them went to Li Baotian, wanting to drive Hu Zi out.

Li Baotian sighed helplessly: "What good is it for you to come to me?"

"The land belongs to them, and now they want it back. What right do I have to interfere?"

He's the village chief, not the emperor. How can he stop people from going home?

Although he didn't like Tiger, it was none of his business.

Left with no other option, everyone had to give up.

When Tiger returned, he bought a big fat pig and told the villagers that he would hold a banquet in three days to celebrate his triumphant return.

The villagers all had opinions about him, so naturally they didn't want to go.

When the news reached Li Weidong's ears, he just found it funny.

"This Tiger is clearly trying to show off his skills!"

Zhao Xiulian spat and said, "Returning home in glory, huh? One of his parents is working away from home, and the other is in jail. He's all alone now. What's there to celebrate!"

She then glared at Li Weidong and said, "It's all your fault. The liquor business was doing so well, but you had to sell the distribution rights."

If you're going to sell it, so be it. Who else could you sell it to?

They had to sell it to Tiger!

The thought of Hu Zi's smug expression infuriated her.

Li Weidong didn't care at all, waving his hand and saying, "If he wants to treat us, then let him do it. It's a good opportunity for everyone in the village to have a good meal."

Nowadays, villagers are growing vegetables in greenhouses, and although their lives have improved, they are still very frugal in their daily lives.

This isn't a meat dish we can afford to eat every day.

If Tiger wants to show off, then let him show off. Getting to eat it is a win!

Zhao Xiulian sighed helplessly, "I really don't know what you're thinking."

Li Weidong shrugged.

What were you thinking?

Of course, they want to wipe out Tiger and all of Black Master's forces in one fell swoop!

As the saying goes, "Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad."

The more arrogant Tiger becomes, the bolder he will act, and the more obvious his flaws will become.

By bringing out the radish, we can expose the mud, and in this way, we can catch them all in one fell swoop!

Seeing that he wouldn't say anything, Zhao Xiulian didn't bother to ask any further. She just shook her head and said, "What will you do when he comes to our house to show off his power?"

Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao appears.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Tiger showed up at the door!

What are you doing here?

Zhao Xiulian's face darkened: "You're not welcome in my home!"

The relationship between the two families was completely severed back when Hu Zi set fire to them, intending to burn them to death.

Tiger stood at the door, dressed in a suit and with his hair neatly styled with hair oil, looking quite respectable.

He said with a smile, "Third Aunt, no matter what, we're still relatives. My grandfather is even being raised in your family!"

"What? I, as the grandson, don't even have the right to come and see my grandfather?"

The old man was sitting under the tree enjoying the cool shade when he heard this. He immediately said, "I don't need you to come and see me. When I was being cared for by you, you weren't very filial. What are you doing here now?"

"If you're really filial, then don't come hanging around in front of me. Just looking at you a few more times will shorten your life!"

As he spoke, he fanned himself with a palm-leaf fan and walked into the house.

Tiger quickly said, "Don't go! I came here today to treat you to a meal."

"I'm going to hold an ancestral worship ceremony early the day after tomorrow. I've invited someone to slaughter a pig and prepare a feast. Remember to come and eat!"

Before Zhao Xiulian could even speak, the old man became annoyed.

"What kind of ancestor are you worshipping? Our Zhao family has no such heartless and ungrateful descendant as you!"

The old man said angrily, "You still want to worship ancestors? When Wei Dong has some free time, I'll ask the ancestral tablets to be placed in the house and kick you out of the Zhao family!"

He was so angry that he started coughing violently again.

Zhao Xiulian got anxious and quickly tried to calm him down: "Dad, why are you angry? You'll only hurt yourself."

As he spoke, he glared at Li Weidong: "What are you still standing there for? Kick him out, or your grandpa will be furious."

Li Weidong let out a long breath and looked at Hu Zi: "What you do is none of our business, but if you insist on getting close to the old man and make him sick, then don't blame me for being impolite."

Tiger curled his lip: "Li Weidong, what are you showing off for?"

"Do you think I'm still the same person I used to be? Let me tell you, I'm not an ordinary person anymore!"

He raised his chin proudly: "You don't know yet, do you? Master Hei has taken me in as his godson and handed over the liquor business entirely to me. From now on, I will be Master Hei's successor."

As Hu Zi said this, he leaned closer to Li Weidong and lowered his voice, saying, "The identity of the underground emperor of Northern Inner Mongolia will be mine sooner or later."

"Li Weidong, Li Weidong, do you think you're so great now?"

"Let me tell you, the day I completely crush you is not far off!"
