My ex-girlfriend thought I was poor, so I made 100 million by betting on stones.

Jiang Guoping doesn't care what the outside world thinks.

He has a lot of things to do now.

For Jiang Guoping, the biggest difference between him and many people is that he does not care about personal or family interests.

When he encounters something, he cannot bury his head like an ostrich.

As the Director of the Investigation Bureau.

Jiang Guoping’s responsibility is to safeguard the interests of China as a country and prevent any vicious incidents from happening.

“Hopefully they’ll be OK.”

Jiang Guoping looked out the window.

That's where the Qin family is.

Two more days passed.

The time for the training camp to start is getting closer.

The situation outside is still tense.

And within the Sima family’s territory.

Sima family.

Inside the meeting hall.

Sima Tao, the new head of the Sima family, was currently holding a meeting with the six most core elders of the family.

The meeting room was sealed off on all sides by a barrier, and no one could eavesdrop on what was going on inside.

A long conference table.

Sima Tao sat in the middle, looked at the six elders sitting on both sides, and asked, "I just got accurate information that they are already investigating our Sima family."

"This is to be expected."

The elders were not surprised.

Sima Tao showed a more serious expression and said, "But I think this matter seems a little strange, so I want to discuss it with you all."

"What is the strange thing that the master of the family is talking about?"

"This is the reply letter to the intelligence I just received. You can circulate it."

Sima Tao handed a document to several people.

This intelligence document has three pages in total.

After everyone had read it quickly, the document finally came to Sima Tao.

"I do feel like something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it."

An elder spoke.

The elder next to him was very shrewd and immediately discovered something. He said, "Although the people from the Investigation Bureau are investigating us, they don't seem to be keeping it secret this time. How could we detect so much intelligence?"

"The Great Elder is right. This is what I was thinking about."

Sima Tao said immediately.

The remaining elders also suddenly realized.

"Yes, the people in the Investigation Bureau are always cautious in doing things, and this time it was arranged by Jiang Guoping himself, so how could it be so crude?"

"It feels wrong. Could it be that all the people have been sent out, so these people are not doing their job well?"

"No, although there are more people going to the training camp to serve as instructors, the remaining members of the Yan Department are also very experienced. They will definitely not be so careless when doing things."

Everyone present immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Sima Tao looked at a few people and continued, "The old ancestor sent us a message, asking us to be cautious and always face the upcoming investigation, especially since the Zhuge family may bring people from the Hidden Family Council."

"But we have people on the Council as well."

"But the Zhuge family is the chairman of the board of directors after all. If their people really doubt us, they can bypass us."

Sima Tao said.

The Great Elder recalled and wondered, “But according to the intelligence, the people from the Investigation Bureau did not communicate this matter with the Zhuge family, nor did they contact the people from the Hidden Family Council.”

"Well, this is the strange thing, they seem to..."

"It seems like he is doing this on purpose for us to see?"

The Great Elder suddenly said at this time.

Sima Tao nodded immediately and said, "Yes, I feel like this was done on purpose for us to see."

"But what is going on?"

The Great Elder was still puzzled.

No one present understood why the people from the Investigation Bureau did this.

Sima Tao pondered for a moment and said, "Remember what our ancestors told us before? Yang Feng has evidence against us, such as the branch that was destroyed before, the things taken away from the Sima family, and the clan members' cards that can prove their identities."

"But we are already prepared. Even if they come to investigate, they won't find anything."

"This is the problem. Although the ancestor told us to be cautious, he couldn't be sure whether Yang Feng would really let the investigation bureau investigate us this time."

Sima Tao's words seemed to make the elders understand something.

"Master, do you mean that they are deliberately bluffing?"

The second elder asked.

Sima Tao nodded and said, "Although I haven't met Yang Feng yet, from the previous intelligence, this Yang Feng is not a simple person, he is an extremely smart person."

"Yes, this man even killed quite a few of our family members, although he may not know it."

"Yes, and Sima Xuanming has also been in contact with him. He must be very familiar with our Sima family's affairs. So this person not only knows us very well, but is also very scheming."

Sima Tao continued, "He never wanted to confront us head-on. His purpose was simple. He wanted to use what he had at hand to contain our power."

"I understand. Yang Feng deliberately let the people from the Investigation Bureau conduct a high-profile investigation. In fact, he was just bluffing to tell us that they would come to investigate soon."

The second elder's eyes sparkled as he said, "In fact, he didn't plan to investigate the Sima family this time, because he can only play this card once. If we can't find any problems in the Sima family this time, we can strike back."

"That's right. If they are not sure of victory, they will rashly investigate us and anger our Sima family, which is not what they want."

Sima Tao continued, "So the reason why Yang Feng asked the people from the Investigation Bureau to conduct such an obvious investigation is to intimidate us and ensure that our personnel do not leave the Sima family."

"If that's the case, then everything makes sense. He never thought of investigating the Sima family during this operation because he knew that we would be prepared. But he didn't want us to be too relaxed, so he asked someone to put some pressure on us."

The Great Elder finally understood what Sima Tao meant.

The people present also nodded at this time, showing expressions of confidence.

"Yes, that must be the case."

"This brat really has a thorough plan. He doesn't want to pay the cost, but he also wants to tie down our combat power."

The Sixth Elder was young and was gritting his teeth at this moment.

They all felt that they were fooled by Yang Feng.

But soon, these people also realized what Sima Tao meant.

"Then, Master, do you mean... to take action now?"

The Great Elder asked.

Sima Tao nodded and said, "The situation outside is very tense right now. Every place is full of gunpowder, but we don't have enough people outside, and many places are even at a disadvantage."

"Yes, this time we have brought back many of our expatriate personnel, and our strength outside has indeed been greatly reduced."

"I have to say that Yang Feng's method does work, but we can't let it work forever."

Sima Tao's eyes were somewhat hawkish.
