"Brother, you can't give up on me like this!" Zhao Lidong's face was full of anxiety. Without his brother's support, he would be lucky to be able to reach the department level before retirement.

"Not giving up on you? Do you want me to stay in this position of vice governor until retirement? You pig-headed guy!" Zhao Lichun was so angry that he wanted to slap Zhao Lidong again, but Zhao Lidong ran away with his face covered!

"If nothing works, we can just make peace with Zhao Cheng. What's the big deal? We all have the surname Zhao, and maybe we were from the same family five hundred years ago! It's not shameful!" Zhao Lidong said while hiding in the corner.

After hearing what Zhao Lidong said, Zhao Lichun stopped what he was doing and sat on the sofa to think.

It is not shameful to ask for peace with Zhao Cheng. Although my brother has a conflict with his son, I have no conflict with him!

And what Lidong said was right. They all had the surname Zhao, so maybe they were from the same family five hundred years ago, and they didn't have any deep hatred.

The most important thing is that although he is not very familiar with Tian Huaizhong, the old leader is familiar with him. If he can persuade the old leader to mediate, it is not impossible.

There's no need to make a life-and-death conflict between the younger generations!

So Zhao Lichun left Zhao Lidong hiding in the corner and went straight to his study. There was a red phone there that could directly call the old leader.

"Old chief, it's the beginning of spring!" Zhao Lichun said with a smile.

"What's wrong?" asked the person on the other end of the phone curiously.

"Old leader, I know the reason why President Zhao blocked me. It's because my fourth brother Lidong had some unpleasantness with the kid who came to President Zhao's house! That's why today's situation happened!" Zhao Lichun's tone was full of helplessness.

"Lidong? How did he offend the Zhao family's children?" the old leader asked curiously.

"Before, the children of the Zhao family were transferred from the Northeast to Jinghai City." So Zhao Lichun told him about Zhao Weinong's situation, how he had a grudge with Zhao Lidong, and how the two of them fought.

In particular, he told everyone about how Zhao Lidong had made things difficult for Zhao Weinong at work before the New Year.

"Lichun, what should I say to your brother? If it doesn't work out, just give up! Otherwise, you will fall into his hands sooner or later!" After listening to this, the old leader thought for a long time before saying this.

Zhao Lichun was also momentarily bewildered by his old leader's words. But there was no way he would give up on Zhao Lidong. He was the eldest of the Zhao family's children, Lixia was the second and already married, and the third had died in the war, leaving him with only this one brother.

Even if he was wrong, I can't just ignore him! But I definitely can't say that to my old boss, right?

"I know my old leader. If possible, I'd like to transfer Lidong to my side! Let him train at the grassroots level for a few years!" Zhao Lichun was also helpless.

"Just think about it yourself. What's the matter with you calling today?" asked the old leader.

"It's like this, old leader, I want to make peace with Zhao Cheng, I wonder if it's possible?" Zhao Lichun said slowly.

"There is no need to negotiate on this matter. In fact, as long as I say a word, Zhao Cheng will stop bothering you. But if your family continues to cause trouble for others, then there will be no room for maneuver. In the future, there can only be one Zhao family in the country. Do you understand what I mean?" said the old leader.

"I understand. I will definitely not let Lidong cause trouble for the Zhao family again in the future, and I myself will not cause trouble for him again! I'm just afraid that they won't let me go!" Zhao Lichun said a little worriedly.

"Don't worry about this matter. Zhao Cheng has a good reputation in Peiping. And do you think the nickname of Street Cleaner Tiger was given for nothing? It was called out by the two leaders themselves back then!" said the old leader with a smile.

"Zhao Cheng has such a relationship?" Zhao Lichun said in surprise.

"Otherwise, why would I tell you not to mess with him? He has connections all over the place, and the political commissar is very polite to him because he has made so many contributions. It's not an exaggeration to call him a national hero!" the old leader sighed.

"I understand, leader!" Zhao Lichun understood what the old leader meant. It is better to stay away from such people.

In Zhao Cheng's office in Peking, Zhao Cheng, who was reading documents, was interrupted by a ringing phone.

"Hello, I'm Zhao Cheng!" said Zhao Cheng.

"Xiao Zhao, I'm Lao Liu!" Zhao Lichun's old leader said with a smile.

"Mr. Liu, why did you think of calling me?" Zhao Cheng asked curiously.

"What? Can't I call you now that I've retired to the second line?" Old Liu said in a pretended angry tone.

"Haha, no, no, Mr. Liu, you are an old revolutionary. Even if you have retired to the second line, you are still a valuable asset to the country! The country still needs old leaders like you to take the helm!" Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

"Okay, let's stop joking with each other. I'm calling you today because I need your help with something!" said Mr. Liu.

"Please speak!" said Zhao Cheng.

"Zhao Lidong, the younger brother of Zhao Lichun, and Weinong of your family both work in the same city. They see each other every day. Weinong does a great job and should be promoted earlier. Zhao Lidong is just an immature young man. As elders, we should be tolerant of young people who make mistakes, don't you think?" said Old Liu.

"Mr. Liu, in fact, my Wei Nong was just caught in an unexpected disaster in this matter. He was just working normally. But Zhao Lidong is too petty. I feel that such a person is not suitable to continue to serve in Jinghai. What do you think?" Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

"I can make the decision on this. Since Zhao Lidong lacks discipline, let him go to the old district to train! I hope he can receive education there and achieve some results!" Old Liu said with a smile.

"Okay. Mr. Liu, even if we let this matter go, all I can do from now on is to keep my distance. This is the best I can do!" Zhao Cheng also said with a smile.

"Xiao Zhao, thank you for giving me, an old man, this face!" Old Liu said with a smile.

"No, Mr. Liu, you are an old leader and we should respect you!" said Zhao Cheng.

"Okay, Xiao Zhao, you go ahead and do your work. I'll tell Zhao Lichun about this news. It will be troublesome if you can't manage your family well!" Old Liu sighed.

"Okay, Mr. Liu, let's contact each other when I have time!" Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Cheng finally understood why he had always said in his previous life that politics was the art of compromise. Not only did one have to be cunning but also thick-skinned!

Zhao Lichun was also very satisfied. After all, it was just asking Zhao Lidong to go to a remote area for training, which was not a big deal.

The person who was most dissatisfied with this matter was Zhao Lidong himself, but since he was the one who caused the trouble, he had to take the blame!
