The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 720: Remember to Open the Door for Me Soon

Despite already knowing who it was, Chen Bin still asked, "Hello, who is this?"

A steady voice came from the other end of the phone, "I am Liao Jiangming, Ruoji's cousin. If you're free now, we can have a chat."

"Oh, it's you, Cousin! Sure, I'm at the café opposite Mr. Liao's house."

The other person responded with an "Mm" and hung up the phone directly.

Chen Bin immediately stood up and waited silently at the door.

It took just a few minutes before he saw a man walking out from the Liao family home.

He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, bearing a 60% resemblance to Liao Jiangchu.

It seemed that this was indeed Liao Jiangming, who had called earlier.

"Cousin, please, upstairs!"

Liao Jiangming nodded slightly, not standing on ceremony, and went upstairs directly to find a private room to sit down.

After the coffee was brought to the table, he stared intently at Chen Bin and expressed his thoughts.

"You're obviously a talented economist, yet you went to the TV station to be a director, it's such a waste."

Although the other person showed no expression, Chen Bin could feel there was no malice toward him.

He responded with a smile, "Thanks for the compliment, but I'm just average, not that great."

Sipping his coffee lightly, Liao Jiangming spoke plain words.

"Things should be as they are, excessive modesty is not good."

Chen Bin didn't know how to respond, so he could only smile in return.

At this point, Liao Jiangming suddenly said, "Before long, I'll go to Yanxi as governor."

Upon hearing this, Chen Bin appeared very pleased.

Clearly, in the struggle between the Xiong family and the Liao family, the Liao family had won.

"That's truly great news, congratulations!"

Liao Jiangming naturally knew about the grudges between Chen Bin and the Xiong family, so he reminded him.

"Don't get too happy too soon, the Executive Vice Governor and the Secretary of the Provincial Committee are both people from the Xiong family."

Nodding slightly, Chen Bin wasn't surprised by this outcome.

After all, the struggle between the Xiong family and the Liao family resulted in maintaining the balance in Yanxi's political arena.

Nevertheless, this was still a very good result.

Cheng Liusha is young and has a strong background, he's a cadre that the higher-ups are focusing on.

It's likely that going to Yanxi is just to gain some prestige, and before long, he will leave.

By that time, the person to take over is very likely to be Liao Jiangming.

As long as the head isn't someone from the Xiong family, Chen Bin would have a good time.

Noticing that Chen Bin fell into deep thought, Liao Jiangming continued to speak.

"You've worked in Yanxi's political arena for so long, now you're in a high position. Tell me about the things in the political circle so that I won't be completely clueless when I take office."

"Well... actually, I'm not quite sure what to say."

"Just speak the truth."

"You must already know quite a bit about what's happening in Yanxi. At the end of last year, many people in high positions changed, and I'm not really familiar with them."

Nodding in agreement, Liao Jiangming acknowledged these words.

"Just tell me what you know."

"I have a good personal relationship with Cheng Liusha and appreciate his character. When you go to Yanxi, you could become partners with him."

"Since you have a good personal relationship, has he ever told you about his background?"

Cheng Liusha had never disclosed his backers, but Chen Bin planned to say what he knew.

After all, what he could find out, Liao Jiangming likely knew as well, so there was no need to hide it. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"I heard that his father-in-law is named You Kaishan."

"You even know about You Kaishan? It seems like your relationship is indeed good, but Cheng Liusha's background is not as simple as it seems."

Hearing this, Chen Bin's interest was piqued.

"What other connections does he have?"

"Cheng Liusha used to be a secretary for the former General Secretary Bai Weiguo. Although Bai Weiguo has retired now, his influence remains. If nothing unexpected happens, Cheng Liusha can at least become a member of the Politburo in the future."

With eyes wide open, Chen Bin looked utterly shocked.

He never imagined that Cheng Liusha would have such deep connections.

Now it seemed that maintaining a good relationship with Cheng Liusha was definitely the right choice.

After that, the two of them talked about some other officials.

When they finished, Liao Jiangming asked again.

"I'm about to start working in Yanxi. Do you have any good suggestions? If you do, great; if not, that's okay too. I don't like being lied to."

If it were someone else, asking such questions right after meeting, Chen Bin definitely wouldn't pay them any mind.

But since this was Ruoji's cousin, and Chen Bin wanted to latch onto the Liao family's strength, he answered seriously.

"Besides building a good relationship with Cheng Liusha, you should focus on developing the economy well. When we had dinner last time, Cheng Liusha told me that many high-level officials were changed in Yanxi because the higher-ups were not satisfied with the local economic performance."

Staring intently at Chen Bin, there was a deep expression in Liao Jiangming's eyes.

"My two cousins gave their best youthful years to you, and they both bore you children. If I need your help in the future, you wouldn't refuse, would you?"

"Of course not. Since you are Ruoji's cousin, that means you are my cousin too. It's only right for me to help you."

At this point, Chen Bin explained.

"Cousin, perhaps you've forgotten, Ruoji is the only one who gave me a child."

"Oh right, I got it mixed up."

Instinctively clearing his throat, Liao Jiangming quickly changed the topic.

"The country is preparing to create several world-class coastal cities, and Tianhe City is on the shortlist. You've worked at the TV station for many years; if you could go to Tianhe City, it would also be very good."

"Thanks for the reminder. Actually, Cheng Liusha has already told me about this, and I'm planning to do just that."

Nodding, Liao Jiangming cryptically said.

"You're of good character, so I'll let you in on a little secret. You can go to Tianhe, but I don't plan on letting it become a sub-provincial city."

"Why is that?"

"You'll have to guess slowly. I hope you can tell me the answer when I'm going to take office in Yanxi."

Chen Bin couldn't figure it out, so he said.

"Alright then, how about we go get something to eat?"

But Liao Jiangming shook his head, "Better not, I have other things to do soon."

After saying this, he bid farewell to Chen Bin and got up to leave.

As time slowly passed and it was almost dinner time, Chen Bin suddenly received a message from Liao Ruoji.

"Honey, I'm really sorry. My parents won't let me leave and won't let you come to my house. How about you head back to Tianhai first, and after the May Day holiday, I'll apologize to you properly."

This result was within the range Chen Bin could accept.

After all, it was his own fault that caused the complete fallout between Liao Ruoji and her sister.

Even if Liao Benchang allowed him into the house, he would hardly be able to eat peacefully.

"It's alright. Take care of yourself and the child. I'll pick you up at the airport when you return to Tianhai."

"Okay, love you!"

Looking at the heart emoji that Liao Ruoji sent, Chen Bin smiled knowingly.

Then he called Zhao Xinmei, "Mom, your son misses you, do you miss me?"

"Of course I do, when are you coming to see me?"

Hearing Zhao Xinmei's voice, Chen Bin felt very happy inside.

He immediately replied, "I'm already in the Imperial Capital, remember to open the door for me soon..."
