They thought about it for a long time, until the fire was almost out. They shared their ideas, but all of them were rejected. Now, Manager Ding was protected by the entire officialdom, as well as some high-ranking officials around him, all of whom were helping him.
There's no way to suppress Manager Ding using ordinary methods. The only way is to get those high-ranking officials to abandon him, making him a pawn, which would then make it easier for Xu Yuehuai and his group to subdue him.
Upon realizing this idea, Xu Yuehuai immediately said to everyone, "I've thought of a great method! This method will definitely work!"
"Now that Manager Ding is mixed up with the government officials, we can't do anything to him. So we can only try to confuse his relationship with the government officials, making sure they hate him."
"That way, we can eliminate Manager Ding's connections. Once we've removed his ties with the government, he won't be so difficult to deal with!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ting, who was standing nearby, quickly asked Xu Yuehuai, "So how exactly do we confuse Manager Ding with the government officials?"
“Those government officials have always been on the same side as Manager Ding! Manager Ding plunders things from the people and then hands them all over to those government officials.”
"Even if the government officials were to eliminate their own people, they would never get rid of such a lucrative target as Manager Ding!"
"How can we create a rift between the government officials and Ding Changgui?" Zhang Ting couldn't even imagine what method could cause Manager Ding and the government officials to fall out.
Xu Yuehuai, however, had already come up with a good idea, and she quickly told Zhang Ting and the others about it.
"You don't need to worry about not being able to do it. The method I came up with is a brilliant idea. Hasn't Manager Ding always been giving profits to government officials? This time, we'll let Manager Ding gain a huge benefit."
"Given how greedy Manager Ding is, he certainly won't be so willing to hand over the profits to the government officials. He'll definitely keep them in his own hands. If he does that, we can secretly report the government officials. Then the government officials will come and search everything Manager Ding has, and they'll definitely find that he has a lot of things in his hands. Then the government officials will confiscate everything Manager Ding has."
"As long as the officials infringe upon Manager Ding's interests, Manager Ding will definitely distance himself further and further from the government. Once Manager Ding begins to doubt the government, and the government officials also distrust Manager Ding, that will be our opportunity to strike."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ting and the others couldn't help but applaud. Xu Yuehuai's method was truly ingenious! As long as they followed Xu Yuehuai's suggestion, the government officials would definitely abandon Manager Ding as a pawn.
Once Manager Ding loses the backing of government officials, Xu Yuehuai and his group can deal with him properly. Although Manager Ding has some business acumen, he can't match them in other aspects.
"Ah Yue, your method is truly brilliant. But what incentives can we offer to entice Manager Ding into conflict with the government officials?"
"We're completely unfamiliar with this place, and we don't have anything we can use. How can we possibly lure them in?"
Qi Guze asked Xu Yuehuai a question, but Xu Yuehuai didn't speak at first. Instead, she pointed to everything around her. Qi Guze and the others had no idea what Xu Yuehuai meant by this.
So Qi Guze asked again, "What does this gesture mean? I don't quite understand it." Xu Yuehuai smiled faintly upon hearing this.
Then, Xu Yuehuai said to Qi Guze and the others, "Who said we have nothing here? Don't we still have the Tianxianglou branch?"
Zhang Ting was genuinely surprised to hear this, and she quickly said, "Sister Yue, do you mean you want to use Tianxianglou's branch as collateral?"
"This Tianxianglou branch is your asset! You didn't have to get involved in this mess at all. Are you really willing to gamble with your own assets?"
"What if your method fails? Manager Ding will take your assets and collude with the government. If you lose even the Tianxianglou branch, how will you fight them?"
Although Zhang Ting hoped that Xu Yuehuai could suppress Manager Ding and restore the economy of East Street to normal, she didn't want Xu Yuehuai to gamble with his own resources. What if Xu Yuehuai lost everything?
Zhang Ting now considers Xu Yuehuai one of her own and has no intention of letting him get hurt because of these conflicts.
Xu Yuehuai replied, "Everyone, don't worry. I have my own way of handling this. I definitely won't let Manager Ding take over the Tianxianglou branch!"
"Just you wait and see! I will definitely create conflict between Manager Liu and the government, and then take advantage of the situation to severely suppress Manager Ding!"
Qi Guze has always trusted Xu Yuehuai completely, and he supports her every decision she makes.
"Okay! Do whatever you want! I'll always be there for you! Even if you end up with nothing, I'll give you everything I have. What's mine is yours, and you can have it all if you want it."
Hearing these words, Zhang Ting and the others felt a little reluctant to stay any longer. The atmosphere between Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai was particularly sweet, as if they were in a different world from everyone else.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai's ears turned red. She said to Qi Guze, "Okay, I understand. If I really end up with nothing, you can't look down on me!"
Qi Guze said, "How could I possibly dislike you?" He cherishes Xu Yuehuai too much! If that day ever comes, he will definitely protect Xu Yuehuai!
Hearing this, Xu Yuehuai felt a warm glow in her heart. Qi Guze always gave her a strong sense of security, and she especially enjoyed being with him.
With Qi Guze by her side, Xu Yuehuai felt capable of anything. With him around, she possessed boundless strength. Even facing countless hardships and obstacles, she was certain she would eventually overcome them and achieve success!
Qi Guze looked at Xu Yuehuai, and seeing how bright her eyes were, as if they contained a whole starry sky, he couldn't help but feel a flutter in his heart.
Seeing the two of them, the people around them decided not to stay any longer. So they all said goodbye and left, leaving only Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze in the space.
