Chapter Summary
Although the armored vehicles have not yet arrived, Fatty Wu had already prepared the dormitories for everyone that night and ordered the officers below to lead the soldiers in training. For all the high-ranking officials, they were divided into two groups: one group only had the title but did not actually have any real power, while the other group, like Liu Ning, held significant military power.

It has to be said that Fatty Wu's abilities are quite good. Although the armored vehicles have not yet arrived, Fatty Wu had already prepared the dormitories for everyone that night and ordered the officers below to lead the soldiers in training. Although we do not have armored vehicles here, we can still conduct drill training. As long as these people are not idle, it means that we have already initially established our position.
Liu Ning was satisfied with Wu Pangzi's performance, but he didn't praise the guy. He would have to see how the guy did in the future. Doing well for one day doesn't mean he's really good. If he could keep it up, then he would have really struck gold.
According to the information Liu Ning had gathered, this batch of armored vehicles was delivered in two batches. The first batch could be delivered in this base city, because these vehicles had already been transported here for some time, and the regular troops had been using them for a month. However, these vehicles had not been damaged; on the contrary, they had passed the break-in period.
The other part needs to be transported from other cities, which will be a bit slower, since it requires coordinating with the railway department for railcars. If we don't use the railway, the cost of using air transport is too high. So Liu Ning can only get half of it now, which is unavoidable, as this is already the fastest speed.
The news that Liu Ning possessed an armored regiment spread quickly. For all the high-ranking officials, they were divided into two groups: one group only had the title but did not actually have any real power, while the other group, like Liu Ning, held significant military power.
To say that an armored regiment is a heavy force would be a joke, but this is at least a good start. It can be expanded slowly in the future. For example, the four major families didn't have many people at the beginning, but now they can mobilize an entire army, at least an army group. Although they are scattered in various places, no one dares to underestimate their strength. So Liu Ning's start is extremely impressive.
Another piece of news was released by the Human Investigation Bureau itself. The Human Investigation Bureau said that it had established a good cooperative relationship with Liu Ning, so its subordinates were even more likely to speculate that the Human Investigation Bureau had its own reasons for doing so, which was to cut off the ideas of some other departments. Although you also think Liu Ning is good, he has already established contact with us, so it is best not to reach out. Although the Human Investigation Bureau is the most powerful in the capital, it cannot rule out the existence of other competing departments, and there are some rising stars who are even more capable than us. Therefore, competing for talent is also the most important thing.
To the others, they were incredibly envious of Liu Ning. If he could establish contact with the Human Investigation Bureau, his future prospects would be very bright. Unfortunately, they didn't have that ability. Even when the Human Investigation Bureau was choosing partners, they would look for outstanding individuals like Liu Ning from various regions. He belonged to the elite group, and the others could only stand below and look up to him.
Liu Ning's noble character also had a great influence on some people, such as the second son of the garrison commander.
Zhu Tianhua had been very close to Liu Ning before, but when Liu Ning was in danger, many people around him distanced themselves from Zhu Tianhua, fearing that it would implicate them. Now that Liu Ning's status has risen, Zhu Tianhua's status has also risen accordingly. However, Zhu Tianhua is not stupid. This second young master remembers clearly those who treated him badly in the past.
Tonight is the night the Lord of the Manor is supposed to come home for dinner, so both sons should be here early. But now that the Lord of the Manor has returned, the eldest son is sitting here obediently, and the seat that should belong to Zhu Tianhua is now empty.
"I'm so sorry, something came up this afternoon, so I got back late..."
The whole family waited there for about 5 minutes before Zhu Tianhua returned from outside. It wasn't that Zhu Tianhua was putting on airs; he had indeed encountered quite a few things that afternoon. Many people were blocking his way, not to cause him any trouble, but simply because his status had risen significantly and he had already become Liu Ning's spokesperson in some aspects. So, if they wanted to curry favor with Liu Ning, they had to first establish a good relationship with him. Zhu Tianhua disdained some of them and could easily push them away, but some of them were not to be underestimated, so he had to exchange a few pleasantries with them. That's why, even though Zhu Tianhua was on time, he still returned 5 minutes late.
“Father eats at home every week today. You used to arrive earlier than us. What’s going on today? Did the sun rise in the west? Or did Mr. Liu get promoted and you’re trying to get some benefits? Let me tell you, some things aren’t easy to get by. If you choose the wrong side, who knows what will happen in the future? Besides, you’re so young, you shouldn’t be running around like this. What if you bring back something bad one day? How will you explain it to the whole family?”
The eldest young master spoke sarcastically, saying that he hadn't had a good time lately. Even his subordinates were eager to visit the second young master whenever they had the chance, and they would be overjoyed if they could chat with him. The eldest young master was always keeping his temper in check, and if Zhu Tianhua made any mistakes, the second young master would definitely find fault with him. How could he let this opportunity slip by? This guy was showing off his abilities everywhere, wanting everyone to know that he was the heir to the family. Although the second young master had become more popular recently, he was still, after all, the second young master.
After hearing his elder brother's words, Zhu Tianhua quickly stood up and apologized, showing no displeasure on his face. The city lord had seen his younger son's performance and had been observing both sons. In fact, he already had a conclusion in his mind. With the family struggles so intense recently, if a city lord couldn't figure things out, he would probably have been overthrown long ago.
He had compared his two sons before and thought that his younger son was not very capable, so he poured all his resources into his older son. His older son was indeed outstanding and became a warrior-level expert at a young age. However, recently he felt that he had made the wrong choice and should make a different choice.
