I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 639 - 455: Important

"I will definitely work hard. May I ask what requirements you have for your disciples, Master Xia?"

A resolute expression appeared in Wu Jiasheng’s eyes.

Seeing this, Xia Liang replied with a smile, "Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faithfulness are all essential. Moreover..."

Xia Liang paused, and Wu Jiasheng watched him nervously.

"Filial piety comes first among all virtues."

After speaking, Xia Liang quietly observed Wu Jiasheng.

Wu Jiasheng was stunned for a moment, his face instantly flushing red. He clearly understood the meaning behind Xia Liang’s words. He had lied to Director Wu for so long and had been extremely rebellious. Indeed, the virtue of filial piety was something quite distant from him.

However, Xia Liang seemed to have anticipated this. Seeing Wu Jiasheng’s expression, he spoke with a faint smile, "It’s not too late."

Hearing Xia Liang’s words, a gleam of light burst from Wu Jiasheng’s eyes as he asked eagerly, "Really?"

"Yes," Xia Liang nodded. "Besides these virtues, I also hope my disciple will have a proper education and cultural foundation. You understand what I mean, right? I won’t accept a disciple who has been expelled."

"I understand, Master Xia. I will do as you’ve said," Wu Jiasheng replied, giving Xia Liang a firm nod. He had clearly grasped the implications of Xia Liang’s words.

It was clear from his eyes that he had made a firm resolution. He immediately ran back to where he had been studying and began to review in earnest.

Witnessing all this, Xia Liang chuckled. The troubles at Director Wu’s home are now completely resolved. If Wu Jiasheng truly mends his ways and graduates from a good university with a decent degree, it wouldn’t be out of the question to accept him as a disciple.

With this in mind, he clasped his hands behind his back and strolled toward Wu Tong’s luxury van. The space inside should be quite ample.

「The next morning.」

Below a high-end commercial building in Xiangjiang, countless Security Bureau cars had stopped, and the entire vicinity was sealed off. The onlookers and paparazzi gathered in the distance were extremely curious about what was happening inside. They didn’t know why the famous Tufeng Group had attracted the attention of the Protectors.

Only a few people familiar with the Tufeng Group understood that the day’s upheaval was likely related to the sudden death of their chairman the day before.

「Meanwhile.」

Inside the Tufeng Group building, in the chairman’s room, Liao Yijie stared at the whiteboard in front of him, his face brimming with uncontrollable joy. Just a few days ago, Fang Liwen and his associates were nearly annihilated. Now, it won’t be long before the Tufeng Group vanishes from Xiangjiang completely. He had been the Xiangjiang Security Bureau Chief for less than a year, yet he had already eradicated the city’s two largest criminal syndicates. This was an accomplishment few in Xiangjiang’s history could claim. Of course, he understood that these two incidents had very little to do with him.

CREAK! 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Just as Liao Yijie was thinking he might soon be promoted again, the door was pushed open.

The deputy chief of the Xiangjiang Security Bureau approached with a smile on his face. Around the room, many other Protectors were conducting a thorough search, but such tasks were far beneath the notice of these two men.

After arriving beside Liao Yijie, the deputy chief said with a smile, "I never thought the Tufeng Group, our biggest headache, would just disappear like this. It feels too theatrical."

"Indeed," Liao Yijie nodded with a smile. He continued, "Luckily, the entire Tufeng Group fell into chaos after its chairman suddenly died yesterday for unknown reasons. On top of that, a senior manager accidentally leaked the group’s criminal evidence. It all simply fell into our laps."

Even as he said this, Liao Yijie felt a certain unease. His smile faded, and a strange, nervous look appeared in his eyes.

Who could have predicted this? The Tufeng Group spent decades laundering its image, only for all that effort to come to naught because of a single accident. Just like that, a thorn in the side of the Xiangjiang Protectors is gone.

He looked up at the other Protectors around him, his expression growing serious. These events are just too suspicious. First, Fang Liwen and his underground gang were almost entirely wiped out at the Mass Burial Mound. A few days later, the chairman of the Tufeng Group, firmly established above ground, died suddenly. The autopsy report said it was cardiac arrest, but the man was known to be in excellent health with no history of heart disease. A sudden cardiac arrest like that is practically impossible. Then, that very afternoon, a high-ranking executive ’accidentally’ leaked all their criminal evidence, allowing us to eradicate this cancer in Xiangjiang. Our investigation confirmed it wasn’t intentional; the manager wasn’t trying to become an informant for the Protectors. It was just a fortunate accident. Both of Xiangjiang’s major illegal powers, one underground and one on the surface, were eliminated within days of each other. All of this... it’s just too unbelievable.
