Chapter 1121: Chapter 142_2

In this game, we’re still young, so we’ll have plenty of opportunities in the future.”

Think ahead and control the pace; build high walls first to laugh last.

Cheng Daqi is in America, but his core spirit was nurtured by Hua Country, so at such a critical moment, he actually wants to take a step back.

“God blocking the way, kill God” looks exciting, but the backlash is even more thrilling. Daqi is ultimately a realist, and after Nanxi’s backlash began, he started to reflect—Hua Country people are like this; no one understands reflection better than Hua Country people.

You should know, Hua Country’s history books rarely record thousands of victories, but they specifically note how the underdogs lost.

“Chan, can you speak directly, stop beating around the bush!”

Temir is also helpless, Daqi is just too adept at beating around the bush, it’s making her dizzy.

Are you going to invest or not?

Can’t you just say it directly?

Actually, this is where Daqi’s level lies—when has an expert ever made a conclusion without a prelude?

According to the theory of relativity of prelude, the longer the prelude, the stronger the expert.

Look at those who speak ambiguously, always going off-topic, and whose conclusions no one can understand—rest assured, they must be true experts.

“Speaking directly… actually, it’s very simple. I want to retreat, but Wolf doesn’t want to retreat in the same way, or rather, his idea of retreating is different from mine.

So, we signed a special betting agreement.

As his marriage with Tiffany is settled, Nanxi and the California Clique’s offensive will surely be neutralized—a stalemate with no progress is also considered a successful neutralization, after all, in the current environment, a complete victory is not possible.

And the power we’re vying for depends on the acquisition deal of Forum Media, which involves snatching projects from Vanguard and Belled, so he can prove his determined stance within the California Elephant Party.

If all goes well, the best scenario is that we successfully intercept, and I remain the leader.

The slightly worse scenario is that I lead our California Elephant Party to temporarily attach to a faction for a few years.

The worst case scenario is that Wolf and we part ways, or he takes my place.”

His explanation was mysterious, but Temir just smiled.

“Chan, starting the gamble again, huh.”

Daqi spoke softly.

“No choice, it’s getting hard to suppress Wolf.”

Involved with Wolf’s patricide, becoming allies under sin and punishment.

Promoting Wolf to the position of California Elephant Party Committee Chairman, granting maximum development space in exchange for his support.

Later, utilized alliances to grant opportunities to Niusen, introducing external pressure to constrain Wolf.

Daqi did everything he could, yet still ended up here.

Tactically winning, strategically also winning often, but from the collective perspective for every win he achieves, Wolf gains corresponding benefits.

Step by step, Daqi leveraged his best efforts, but still reached the situation he most dreaded.

Whether it’s teaming up with Black Satan, merging with the Shamite wanderers, or being a good son-in-law, Wolf can suppress the alliance of Daqi and Mi’er.

Niusen had no choice, Wolf had no choice before, Gru often had no choice, and now, it’s Daqi’s turn to have no choice.

Daqi: Damn it all, blame Nanxi!

“So you still… forget it, when do Volvo and Tiffany plan to have the wedding?”

Mi’er intended to say Daqi finally stopped being stubborn but didn’t want to make her man feel pain, so she kept silent.

The changes in people’s fates are so intricate, standing in the position Daqi once stood, Mi’er made the same decision as Daqi.

Now, it’s my turn to shelter you from the wind and rain, even if only a little bit.

“The wedding isn’t important…” Cheng Daqi reminded.

The form is merely the process to the goal, Wolf’s rise is something he can’t control.

“Indeed, then I think it’s time we prepare for a graceful exit, Chan, actually I have a better suggestion compared to those targets you picked.”

After spending so much time with Daqi, Mi’er also learned this seemingly pessimistic baseline thinking.

Think about the ending first, so the final result isn’t too embarrassing.

“A better suggestion? What do you mean?” Cheng Daqi puzzled.

Temir’s eyes lit up, proud of her own cleverness.

“Leverage the power of the Koch octopus!

David is almost kicking the bucket, wait a few more years, Charles will go too, the successors of the Koch family definitely won’t be a match for us!

First borrow the power of the Koch family, working hand in hand with them, to implement your ideologically driven agenda across state lines on the West Coast.

Wait for our strength to grow a bit. When the two souls of the Koch family pass away, then we can turn the tables, let Wolf feel the pressure!”

Borrowing a chicken to lay eggs, and in the future killing the chicken to harvest eggs, indeed Temir’s new option opened Daqi’s eyes.

Exactly, the Koch brothers are half a foot in the grave, at most a year or two before they’re done for, and the other one is almost ninety, soon to enter the terminal care phase.

Moreover, the Koch family wields immense influence on the West Coast and within the Elephant Party, such an ally can significantly enhance Daqi’s success rate.

The key is that being a follower requires much less effort than being the boss—assuming this follower is strong and smart enough.

Coincidentally, given Daqi and Mi’er’s current stature, they can’t lose independence within any faction, wherever they go they’ll become one of the most prominent groups.

Having swept through the California Clique, their record is verifiable.

“Worth considering, though these matters are a bit far off, let’s wait for Gru to make a move first, and test Gasetti’s reaction.”

This Mayor has waited so long, finally going to confront us head-on, to be honest, I actually have a bit of anticipation.”

The one Daqi finds hardest to understand is Gasetti, this Mayor is too capable of enduring.

But this tolerance is actually brilliant. The California Elephant Party isn’t firmly established, Gasetti’s avoidance of combat can actually prevent being provoked by the California Elephant Party.

Now, Daqi is pushing Gru to start the charge, he’s curious to see if Gasetti will continue enduring.

“The acquisition has already started, how do you plan to snatch the project?”

Cheng Daqi stood up and took Mi’er’s cigarette out of her mouth, took a puff for himself.

He pulled Mi’er into his arms, and said.

“Ha, first let Wolf see our determination.”

“We are a bit like Mr. and Mrs. Smith, honey.”

“They are nowhere near us!”

—————–

“Where’s my family? Is my daughter okay? I must see them first before I’ll talk to you!”

Burns immediately put forward demands, which made Gru feel a bit irked.

“Shut up, Byrne, I wouldn’t be foolish enough to keep your child in my house, she’s in a safe place, waiting for you to save her.

But I regard this rescue as a reward, you need to use loyal actions to exchange for the reward, how about it?”

Regarding Gru’s threat, Burns didn’t buy in at all.

This old officer knew very well that while it’s possible to bow your head, you should still maintain posture—the rotten private detective thinks so too.

“My loyalty is solely dedicating to America!”

Gru laughed bitterly.

Friend, who doesn’t understand each other?

When you were a bootlicker for Lake, why didn’t you say your loyalty was solely dedicated to America?

Actually, what annoys Gru the most is Burns’s hypocritical face.

If I’m recruiting you, that means you’re disloyal to America, that means you’re siding with the Demon.

If Lake recruits you, it’s loyalty, it’s agreed upon.

What’s the matter, Gru Sheriff didn’t win the competition to be your master?

Is it because you look down on me, or because my strength isn’t enough?

Ultimately, isn’t it just hypocrisy?

“Come on, try this, then I’ll arrange for you to have a meeting with your daughter.”

Sheriff Gru doesn’t scold, it’s too low, that’s a trick used by lowbrow types like Eris.

He just took out a marijuana cigarette from his cigarette box and handed it to Burns.

For such things, Burns naturally didn’t want to try it, but he thought of Gru’s words, ‘meet with daughter’.

Finally, he grimaced with eyes shut and tried it.

“Hahahahaha!”

Watching the suffering Burns, the former sheriff laughed wildly and boastfully.

Ruining a good soul to pathology, Gru enjoyed the feeling.
