Chapter 539 If you had half the courage of Yang Zheng, Longming Group would have left Chu Nan long a
Yang Zheng knew that although he could do nothing about the Zhang family, the Zhang family could do nothing about him either.
Zhang Xiaocong is an experienced man, so he can naturally see this.
So if he wanted Yang Zheng to obey him, the only thing he could do was to "intimidate" him.
The purpose is to scare Yang Zheng.
In fact, people often control each other through "intimidation".
People like Zhang Mingqiang still dare not resist what Zhang Xiaocong says.
But in reality, what can Zhang Xiaocong do to him?
Not to mention that Zhang Xiaocong has retreated to the second line.
Even if he was still in power, could he still use those powerful methods on his own son?
So in fact, as long as Zhang Mingqiang is tougher and dares to resist.
Then Zhang Xiaocong could probably only curse "rebellious son" with tears in his eyes, and could do nothing else.
There will be a popular term in the future called "obedience test".
Simply put, it is to test others' obedience to rules or authority.
The test subject does not know how to resist.
The end result is that they are gradually domesticated.
Just like Zhang Mingqiang now, and the Zhang family.
Just now, Zhang Xiaocong deliberately ignored Yang Zheng and asked the security guards to take direct action.
In fact, it was a test of Yang Zheng's obedience.
Yang Zheng endured it and softened.
Then Zhang Xiaocong will undoubtedly become more and more excessive.
Until Yang Zheng was completely domesticated and became a dog of the Zhang family.
But Yang Zheng did not endure, nor did he give in.
The level of resistance was so strong that it was even a bit arrogant.
So Zhang Xiaocong softened.
Of course he was not afraid of Yang Zheng.
But he only knew that if the Zhang family and Yang Zheng worked together, both would benefit.
As for the face issue, it really doesn't matter.
In a word, politics is the art of compromise.
If Zhang Xiaocong was the kind of old stubborn person who only cared about face, he would not be able to sit in that high position.
Just like his second son Zhang Minggang, it was because he valued face too much.
So he was more than one step behind his eldest son Zhang Minghong.
Generally speaking, it is impossible for two brothers to reach the top at the same time.
So if nothing unexpected happens, Zhang Minggang can only reach the provincial level at most, and he will have to retreat to the second line.
This is why Zhang Minggang agreed to assist Yang Zheng in selling grain wine.
He had reached the point where he had to make a change.
Finally, the youngest son, Zhang Mingqiang, is the one that Zhang Xiaocong is least optimistic about.
So he was not even allowed to pursue a career in politics.
Otherwise, you wouldn't think that whether his three sons would pursue a career in politics was determined by their age, right?
Because he is least optimistic about Zhang Mingqiang.
But Zhang Mingqiang is indeed the least promising.
Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s talk about the present.
Yang Zheng is such a good potential stock.
The first thing Zhang Mingqiang thought of was to use it to help his illegitimate daughter find her roots!
This kind of womanly person.
What future can there be in pursuing a career in politics?
"Grandpa Zhang, you're too kind. Your majestic demeanor is the role model we young people should emulate."
Yang Zheng had a bright smile on his face, but his words were somewhat sarcastic.
He is still young after all.
I can’t be as relaxed and at ease as Zhang Xiaocong.
Zhang Xiaocong smiled faintly and asked, "Are you okay with your injuries? Do you want someone to take a look?"
Yang Zheng chuckled and shook his head: "It's just a superficial wound."
Zhang Xiaocong nodded slightly and said, "Then sit down and talk."
After that, he ordered: "Meiqin, go pour Yang Zheng a cup of tea."
He Meiqin paused after hearing this, then raised her head and shouted towards the tea room:
"Xiao Wen, pour me a cup of tea."
Yang Zheng came here as the husband of the illegitimate daughter.
How could she, the legal wife, be willing to pour tea for a "wild son-in-law"?
Zhang Xiaocong gave her a cold look.
He Meiqin lowered her head but did not move.
"I'll go."
Zhang Muxi on the side suddenly spoke, and then walked straight to the tea room.
Yang Zheng couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.
It turns out that there are many grudges among wealthy families.
Even pouring tea can lead to a secret fight.
"Then I'll trouble Sister Mu Xi."
Yang Zheng thanked her politely, took Zhang Yilian's hand, walked to a sofa and sat down, then casually said:
"Brother Rongwei, how was things going with that girl at the bar last time?"
Apply eye drops.
If you, He Meiqi, don't give me face, then don't blame me for exposing your son's character.
He trailed off.
Others reacted indifferently.
Obviously, everyone knew Zhang Rongwei's character a long time ago.
Zhang Rongwei's eyes flashed with obvious panic, but he pretended to be calm and said:
"It was just a relationship, we broke up a long time ago."
Yang Zheng noticed his panic.
has a problem!
Doubts arose in his heart, but he just smiled calmly on the surface.
"All you do is mess around all day!"
Zhang Xiaocong scolded him with a look of disappointment.
Zhang Rongwei said helplessly, "What he said happened half a year ago. I haven't been out much during this period. Grandpa, you saw it at home too."
"What do I see? Do I see you putting on an act in front of me?"
Zhang Xiaocong exposed him without hesitation, and then looked at He Meiqin:
"A loving mother often spoils her son! If you continue to spoil him like this, you will regret it in the future."
He Meiqin had an expressionless face and didn't say anything, but just glanced at Yang Zheng.
Yang Zheng returned a bright smile.
He Meiqin's eyes narrowed and she turned away.
Zhang Xiaocong was obviously unhappy. After scolding He Meiqin and her son, he looked at Zhang Mingqiang:
"He's a terrible father. He's been busy with that little company all day. He's been busy for over ten years, but he's not as good as someone else in half a year."
This is really heartbreaking if it is true.
The key point is that the person who has been with me for half a year is still right next to me.
Zhang Mingqiang could only remain silent.
And looking at how he listened obediently to the lecture.
Zhang Xiaocong became even more angry: "Look at you, you are already over 40 years old, and you are still the same as before, without any courage! With your current state, what can you accomplish?"
"If you had half the courage of Yang Zheng, Longming Group would have left Chu Nan long ago!"
This old man!
He actually tried to sow discord!
After Yang Zheng cursed inwardly, he immediately spoke:
"I truly don't deserve what Master Zhang said. Without Uncle Mingqiang, I'd just be an ordinary college student from a small county town."
Grandpa Zhang became "Mr. Zhang".
Uncle Mingqiang is still Uncle Mingqiang.
These words have fully demonstrated his position.
Zhang Mingqiang also smiled at him, indicating that he had not fallen into the trap and still believed in him.
Zhang Xiaocong waved his hand and spoke again: "No need to try to smooth things over for him. Whether you relied on him or not, everyone has eyes and can see clearly."
Zhang Mingqiang still kept smiling, but it was obviously forced.
To some extent, provoking and alienating people are both overt conspiracies.
Even though you know what's going on, you still fall for it...
Just like Zhang Mingqiang at this moment.
Being belittled by his own father as being worse than a young man under 20.
In front of all his children.
This young man is even his future son-in-law.
Where would he put his face?
How could he resist having some thoughts about Yang Zheng?
Seeing his expression, Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel speechless.
Zhang Mingqiang usually looks very smart and wise.
But in front of Zhang Xiaocong, it's like he has a mentally retarded aura...
This is the result of being domesticated.
When facing the "master", the domesticated person basically stops thinking and just waits to receive orders.
