Liu Datong turned and entered the private room, saying to Ning Zhiheng, "Team leader, this group leader looks terrified!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded and smiled, "He's a greedy fool. We'll scare him this time, but if he tries anything again, we'll deal with him properly."
Upon hearing this, Liu Datong asked, "Then, team leader, should we return that portion of the allowance to him?"
“Give it to him, and we'll avoid any complications!” Ning Zhiheng nodded. He also had his concerns. After all, Zhu Kang, who was behind Bao Sheng, was a major general and division commander. The power behind him was definitely not simple. If things got too complicated and his backers were exposed, it would be troublesome for him as well. Of course, it was best to stop while he was ahead!
“Datong, the situation is very volatile these days. Try to avoid trouble. Also, didn’t I tell you not to buy property? How come I heard you bought two more properties?” Ning Zhiheng asked coldly.
Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's question, Liu Datong's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that his actions had been under the team leader's watchful eye all along. He couldn't help but put on a forced smile and said, "The legal tender is depreciating day by day. It's better for me to acquire some assets than to watch it depreciate!"
"Then let's exchange it for US dollars and British pounds. I warned you long ago, but you ignored me, didn't you!" Ning Zhiheng gave Liu Datong a cold glare, which made Liu Datong tremble with fear. Now that Ning Zhiheng's power was growing, even Liu Datong, who had followed him the earliest, dared not say a word.
"Let me give you a heads-up, you won't be in this police chief position for long, at most two months. I'll find a way to transfer you to another position, away from Nanjing, to Chongqing. Everything there is just beginning, so you need to be prepared," Ning Zhiheng said. He felt that Liu Datong and the other peripheral figures had finally followed him for a while, and it was time to arrange a way out for them. Besides, he would need them in the future, so it was better to send them to Chongqing as soon as possible.
"Chongqing?" Liu Datong was stunned. What was going on? He was suddenly being asked to take up a post in Chongqing, the capital city of Nanjing, especially for such a lucrative position. He was speechless for a moment!
"What? You don't want to?" Ning Zhiheng narrowed his eyes and stared straight at him, which immediately frightened Liu Datong into silence.
Ning Zhiheng has always been self-centered. He believes that what is good for Liu Datong and others is useless even if they oppose it. Just like how he dealt with his uncle, he had to carry out the order whether he understood it or not!
"Don't rush. This will take at least two or three months. During this time, dispose of all your properties and legal tender. Once the police headquarters issues the transfer order, set off immediately," Ning Zhiheng instructed.
"Yes, I'll handle it immediately and set off as soon as the transfer order arrives." Liu Datong quickly nodded in agreement. He knew that he absolutely could not disobey Ning Zhiheng's words and dared not neglect his arrangements in the slightest.
Ning Zhiheng looked at him and felt he still needed to explain things to him, otherwise he would have a knot in his heart. So he said in a slightly gentler tone, "Don't be reluctant. I will soon be transferred from Nanjing to Chongqing. My teacher and brother will also be transferred. If I leave, how can you keep your position? Today it's Bao Sheng, tomorrow it's Li Sheng and Wang Sheng. I'm afraid you will be swallowed up and there won't even be any bones left. You might as well make plans."
Ning Zhiheng's words startled Liu Datong. It turned out that Team Leader Ning was also being transferred to Chongqing. No wonder!
The team leader is right. Just over six months ago, I was just a patrolman. I only got to where I am today because of the team leader's promotion. He is my support and backing in this world. Bao Sheng's situation today is a perfect example.
Without the team leader's support, he was completely powerless to fight back. Moreover, Nanjing was full of powerful and influential people. Holding this lucrative position, without the team leader's protection, he would be a sitting duck for anyone to manipulate.
I still need to cling tightly to the team leader and pray for peace and safety in this chaotic world.
Thinking of this, Liu Datong had no more complaints. He nodded repeatedly in agreement: "Team leader, I know what to do. I will follow your instructions."
At this point, he suddenly asked, "Team leader, what about my men? They've all worked for you before. If I leave, they'll have no one to rely on."
Ning Zhiheng nodded. Yes, he was Liu Datong's backer, and Liu Datong was the backer of his brothers. This departure would affect quite a few people.
"You should ask them privately. Take those who are willing to come with you, and those who are not, well, it's fate. But Chen Yanqing and Wen Xing'an must be taken away. There's no room for negotiation. Make it clear to them. I don't want to waste my breath on them. Once you're in my door, there's no way you can leave!"
"Yes, I will explain it to them and make sure they are prepared!" Liu Datong nodded and said.
"By the way, what about Chen Yanqing and that Xue?" Ning Zhiheng suddenly remembered something and asked casually.
“Guo Ruxue!” Liu Datong said.
"Yes, Guo Ruxue, how are they now?" Ning Zhiheng asked. Chen Yanqing had always secretly loved Guo Ruxue and didn't mind that she had been Dai Daguang's mistress. Besides, Dai Daguang had long been executed.
Chen Yanqing and Liu Datong later specifically sought him out, begging him to release Guo Ruxue; this matter has been going on for quite some time.
"They're getting married soon, and my wife is helping with the arrangements. We'll be inviting you to the wedding to celebrate!" Liu Datong said with a smile.
Ning Zhiheng joked, "Chen Yanqing should thank me. If I hadn't dealt with Dai Daguang, how could he have won the heart of the beauty!"
