Old two-story building, remote courtyard.
The large iron gate is watched by a dedicated concierge. Vehicles entering and exiting need to be opened manually by the concierge. Once inside, they will immediately drive to both sides of the courtyard.
There is no garage, but there is a large carport. It is not to protect the vehicle from wind and rain, but to put down the outer cloth so that outsiders cannot see the vehicles driving in here.
The small building has a dilapidated teacher's iron windows on the outside, and new windows with a layer of guardrails embedded inside. The guardrails ensure that people inside cannot pass through the windows in any form.
The structure of the room is simple. Even the bathroom in the corner is enclosed by a sliding door design. There is no sound insulation or smell blocking. At best, after closing the door, you will not be completely exposed to others, but your figure inside is indeed clearly visible. .
There was a single bed, a small desk, and two old-fashioned wooden chairs with backrests, one in front of the desk and one by the door. Other than that, there was nothing else.
Gu Changshun was lying on his back on the single bed, closing his eyes and concentrating. It felt like he was asleep. The two people who actually looked after him knew that this man was very stable. He had not had the slightest mood swing in more than ten days since he had been here. He should sleep. When I sleep, I don't feel agitated at all. I can lie there for several hours pretending to be asleep, but I don't fall asleep at all.
There was one sitting at the door inside the house, and another sitting at the door outside the house. No matter what Gu Changshun was doing when he was eating or going to the bathroom, there were two pairs of eyes staring at him, 24 hours a day, with two groups of four people taking turns.
He is a police officer and has been working for nearly forty years. He is an absolute veteran.
You answer whatever you ask, and you answer whatever you are asked to say. Face all doubts and inquiries, and answer them without hesitation. It feels like a true reaction, and you cooperate with the investigation without thinking.
Everything can be checked, but if you want to dig deeper and ask questions, Gu Changshun will only smile lightly at you, so much so that some inexperienced staff will feel their faces get hot. This feeling of being looked down upon by others is very unpleasant.
"Let's be clear, Lao Gu, I let you in to ask you to speak. If you don't speak, you can't get out. You also know that if there is not enough evidence, there will be a way for you to continue to cooperate with the investigation, don't you think? ?”
After dinner, two people came over. Gu Changshun could hear the subtle differences in their accents. He calculated calmly that they were not from around Songjiang. The accents in many places in the Northeast seemed similar, but in fact there were very subtle differences. A certain word Pronunciation, the vocabulary of a special local dialect, even if many people have been trained, will reveal it inadvertently at some point.
For example, if you fall down, in an area about 200 kilometers away from Songjiang, people there will be used to saying "guai". Such nuances will be paid special attention to every time you speak and may be avoided. Once you talk too much, you will Revealed unconsciously.
And this is precisely Gu Changshun's strength due to his experience, and he will not show it.
A square-faced man in his forties. As soon as he came into contact with Gu Changshun, he knew that he was a professional in this. A man in his thirties with tender skin and tender flesh. One of them was like Yan Bo, and the other was a professional 'quarterly inspection'. The team members were all strong players, and Gu Changshun knew that this was going to be the final game with him.
Gu Changshun smiled: "Give me a cigarette."
When he lit up the cigarette, neither his mood nor his state gave the other party a closed feeling. He was very relaxed, giving the impression that he might want to open his mouth.
"You two, what are you asking? Let's get straight to the point. I believe you can continue to find ways to isolate me. I also believe that given the appropriate opportunity, there will be people outside who can speak for me."
"Is it your apprentice, Yan Bo, Zhang Ze, or your old superior, Cao Haiyang?"
Gu Changshun smiled: "Look, how good this is. Speak out and speak out. Everyone is a sensible person. If I have what you want, it depends on your ability. If not, you don't have to waste your efforts."
The square-faced man's eyes were bright and he said with a sense of judgment: "Lao Gu, are you there? You and I are both in this business, so why bother? It's not very good if it's simple."
Gu Changshun took a deep breath with a serious expression. After a few puffs, the cigarette burned to ashes. The white-faced scholar handed over the cigarette and lighter, indicating that he could continue.
Gu Changshun lit another one: "There is really nothing to say about Captain Cao. We should be friends for many years. If you want to defeat him, I advise you not to waste your efforts. He will be fine. I didn't care before. There will be no shortage of money now, my daughter is the wife of the chairman of Anshun Group, there is no need to talk about money."
Square-faced man: "Let's talk about his son-in-law?"
Lao Gu smiled: "You have checked it out a long time ago. Mr. Wei started his career with at least a little care. Unless I don't know anything else, I can tell you straightforwardly. Even I This is just a courtesy exchange during the New Year and the holidays. The Xianguang and the lottery station opened by my family were taken care of and informed by Mr. Wei in advance. We are also investing real money. You must have checked all the procedures. Already..."
The square-faced man knocked on the table with the carbon pen in his hand: "Lao Gu, tell me something useful."
Gu Changshun leaned back: "You are here. I think it is not far before I go out. Don't be angry. I don't mean to make fun of you. I just have something to say. You two need to think about it for yourselves. If the people behind you fail, will you be implicated? We are all colleagues and employ people in different places. Like me, when I go out, the procedures and conditions for me to come in are not complete. After I go out , if necessary, may become the vanguard officer of the counterattack. Can you hold on? Or the one behind you can do it. He is in Songjiang and is nothing. And the one above him, I don’t think anyone knows about it at all... …”
The white-faced scholar slapped the table: "Gu Changshun, now I'm talking about your problem, don't worry about him."
"Little brother, there is a saying I heard from others, oh, the one you call Mr. Wei. He said that they are all foxes with thousands of years of age, and it is boring to play with them. I can tell you responsibly, unless you It can be framed to perfection without any flaws, otherwise there is no need to waste time. Clean things can withstand any form of investigation by you. Don't think that there must be some inside story in such a relationship. You will be disappointed this time. Who is dirty? Let’s wait and see.”
At this point, Gu Changshun put out the cigarette, leaned back, looked calm, said nothing, closed his eyes and rested, and did not expect to have the luxury of smoking another cigarette. Maybe the food will be reduced in the next few days. .
The square-faced man and the fair-faced scholar looked at each other. They were not afraid of anything else, but they were afraid of meeting such an old man who knew himself and his enemy, so they checked the bottom of the case. There were almost no obstacles specially set up to hinder the investigation, and everything they found was all Withstand inspection.
If it is illegal to open a fruit and vegetable supermarket or a small lottery station in a residential area, then they have some solutions.
It's not that Gu Changshun doesn't accept gifts, but for someone like him, if the Yuxi cigarettes he smokes in his early twenties are gifts from others, and there are frozen chickens and geese in the freezer at home, is it a problem?
Strictly speaking, yes.
But can it really be done strictly? If these things are summed up, as the last straw that breaks Gu Changshun's back, it won't be Gu Changshun who will fall.
"Lao Gu, it's boring for you to do this."
After a long time, Gu Changshun opened his eyes: "I advise you not to worry about it. I guess, tomorrow at the latest. If you hurry up, you may not need tomorrow."
The two of them were stunned for a moment, then lowered their heads slightly to hide the changes in their eyes.
The sound of the car horn and the rapidly changing light of the headlights were transmitted into the house through the window. Gu Changshun smiled: "It seems that I overestimated you."
A few minutes later, Gu Changshun saw Zhang Ze, and at the door downstairs, Yan Bo stood there, staring at the square-faced man and the white-faced scholar, smiling silently.
After handing over the formalities, Gu Changshun walked downstairs, looked at the two of them, and said with a smile: "The rich boss came in so hurriedly with a pale face. I thought I had found an opportunity to attack. It turned out that we were all a bunch of inexperienced people." Are you a bastard in the investigation? Okay, let me tell you how many people I have caught, how many cases I have solved, and how many honors I have received in my life, as if I am covering it up."
Square-faced man: "You knew this earlier, what channel?"
"Don't think too much. There is no channel. What I'm afraid of is that you won't check. Let you check carefully. We will also let everyone see what kind of people we are. There is no point in trying to cover up your accent. Rich Boss Served in your company."
Seeing the unbelieving looks of the square-faced man and the white-faced scholar, Gu Changshun added: "I have passed through many people in my mind, and I have recorded everyone's detailed information in my mind, including the rich boss's."
………………
A Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle is driving on the streets of Songjiang.
At a time like ten o'clock, the city has gradually calmed down, and there will be no traffic jams even in the bustling areas of the city.
In the car, Xu Liang, who once served as the director of the mobile phone office, later worked for Wei Tao because of his close relationship with Wei Tao, and then worked there as a manager after establishing a taxi company. The air conditioner in the car was on, and his forehead was still Layers of sweat appeared.
Wei Tao didn't say a word, Xu Liang swallowed his saliva several times, and when he wanted to speak, Lu Jiang stopped him.
The car was parked at the entrance of a restaurant, and a group of people were leaving inside. The inside was tilted, and they drank a lot of wine. Moreover, these people were in the state of a few Northeasterners after drinking, that is, they were extremely crazy. The world was theirs, and the city was theirs. It's theirs, showing off their power, being drunk and shouting everywhere. They are too lazy to drive a rough truck, so they make a lot of noise on the road, and even swear at the driver of the rough truck.
The car stopped in front of them. The shirtless men still wanted to curse. The rear door slid open electronically. Yuan Haitao saw Xu Liang: "Hey, Lao Xu."
Xu Liang leaned back and sat up straight, exposing Wei Tao's face on the inside.
In an instant, the expressions of the two brothers changed. The so-called drunkenness depends on what they are facing and who they are facing. It's not uncommon to wake up in an instant. A shock can make you wake up from a dazed state to sweating profusely in an instant.
"Wipe..." There was someone nearby who was about to say something rude, but Yuan Hailong covered his mouth.
"Wei, Mr. Wei." Yuan Haitao smiled. He hadn't seen his boss for a long time. In the past, when everyone worked together under one roof, he never thought that one day his boss would reach this level. It has already been over. At the stage where I can still post it to show my familiarity, my heart is full of awe.
"Get in the car." The passenger window pressed down, and Lu Jiang's face appeared in front of the two brothers.
The car is spacious enough. To enter the third row from the second row, you only need to turn slightly sideways. This also results in the loss of the width of the seat behind the second row of passenger seats to complete this seat arrangement design.
The car continued to drive in Songjiang under the night. The two brothers Yuan Haitao had completely sobered up. From hot sweat to cold sweat, they kept wiping their sweat. They wanted to speak, but they sensed the strange atmosphere and did not dare to speak. Lu Jiang turned around. Looking behind them, the look in their eyes made them realize like Xu Liang that they were in trouble. Did they do something wrong?
The car was circling, going through the streets and alleys, without stopping, and the speed was not fast. Wei Tao just said nothing. The faces of the three people in the car became increasingly ugly.
When the car suddenly drove to a remote area in the north of the city, the three of them were frightened. Their calves began to tremble. Xu Liang bravely spoke: "Mr. Wei, I, I was wrong."
Wei Tao still ignored him, and the car drove into an old factory, an old industrial city, and the undeveloped northern area of the city. There were many old factories of different sizes.
I saw acquaintances and strangers who were familiar with me.
The sole of the shoe slapped Wang Dabao's face. Yao Xuejun took action himself, hitting him left and right. It didn't hurt much, but it was extremely insulting.
The beating was not that painful, but anyone who was forced to kneel on the ground and slapped back and forth would not be able to hold back their self-esteem. What's more, Wang Dabao is also a respectable person. He has become more and more prosperous in the past year. There is also a very respectable celebrity in Songjiang.
Being brought to this place in the middle of the night and slapped with the soles of his shoes not only made him feel uncomfortable on the face, but also the feeling of his pride being talked about had made him forget his fear and only be left with anger.
Seeing Wang Dabao kneeling there being beaten, Xu Liang reacted the fastest.
The position where he was sitting was very wide. He knelt down directly facing Wei Tao in the car: "Mr. Wei, I was wrong. I was confused for a moment. I was really confused for a moment..."
Yuan Haitao and Yuan Hailong behind also understood that the place was too narrow to kneel down, but they still made a kneeling posture. Although they were still strong Northeastern men with big gold chains and tattoos just now, now they no longer smell of alcohol at all, and they have completely transformed into Little Guaiguai: "Mr. Wei, we were deceived by Wang Dabao. He brought us into Xinlian, promoted our status, and got closer to us just to find out about the company. He had some photos of us taken. , there’s nothing we can do about it.”
After the car parked, Lu Jiang opened the door, grabbed Xu Liang by the collar, and lifted him out of the car. He kicked him directly to Wang Dabao's side.
Xu Liang was smart and quick to respond. He immediately imitated Wang Dabao's example and kneeled down without anyone else pressing his arms and body.
The Yuan brothers also followed suit. They were a little dizzy after being slapped on the brain by Lu Jiang, but they didn't forget to kneel down quickly. Mad, what happened, is the money so easy to get and so easy to spend?
Wei Tao got out of the car and walked slowly to Wang Dabao. He didn't need to say anything. Many things were already clear when he reached this station, and he didn't intend to hear what anyone said.
Yao Xuejun, Xu Liang and the Yuan brothers were all old acquaintances. They worked in the mobile phone market together. When they saw that they were bugs caught within the company, they were very angry. They really needed to use their strength. It will be very painful to smoke.
"Oh, you three grandsons, what the hell did you say to people?"
Xu Liang's nosebleed was extracted several times in a row, and he just wiped it without trying to dodge. He was smarter than the Yuan brothers who had hatred in their eyes.
"They didn't say anything. They just want to know whether Mr. Wei did any illegal operations when he was doing business, whether he gave gifts to anyone, etc. We really don't know, and we can't talk nonsense."
Often people's first pot of gold is "dirty". From this point of view, it is understandable that Fu Shouhei arranged for Wang Dabao to do this. It was just to inquire about other people's information in private, and there was no talk of betrayal. Betrayal, some people complaining after drinking, may reveal corresponding secrets.
I never thought it would be like this, I never thought it would be so serious. Now that Mr. Wei has reached that position, will he still care about things that happened when he first made his fortune? Besides, nothing happened. He had a good relationship with Mr. Guan at that time, had a conflict with Yao Xuejun and later subdued him, and got Qiao Xinhua and Zhu Feng out of the north of the city.
It's okay to say he has a little bit of black color.
Xu Liang was like bamboo shoots pouring beans into beans, he didn't hide anything, he said everything he needed to say, even when he drank too much and was dissatisfied with Wei Tao. He felt that he was considered a veteran employee and did not get the benefits he deserved. The manager of a shabby rental car company still wanted to have a reputation. After a year, the drivers were making hard-earned money, and he, the manager, could not make much money. .
The Yuan brothers on the other side still wanted to hide something. When Yao Xuejun's short blade was placed on their little fingers and they were about to cut off, the two brothers were so frightened that they no longer dared to hide anything.
"They were the policemen he brought here, and we didn't dare to resist. Those guys were more violent than the bandits. If we didn't accept the money, it wouldn't be enough. If we did, we would have to do things for them. They also made some testimonies for us to sign. , then the content above is not true, it has been reprocessed through some of the content we described. It is not completely true or completely false. If you really have to ask from the other party's perspective, it may be true."
Xu Liang gritted his teeth: "By the way, there is also Hai Yong."
Guan Chunliang's brother was once his back-up man in Jianghu. In recent years, he has completely come ashore. He also arranged for Hai Yong to come ashore and now serves as the general manager of a construction company.
Lu Jiang spat at the side: "Oh, I'll bring him back."
Wei Tao waved his hand, took his mobile phone, got in the car, and got off a few minutes later.
Half an hour later, Guan Chunliang's car arrived, and Hai Yong got out of the car with a disheveled look on his face. He was much more bachelor than Xu Liang and others. When he saw Wang Dabao kneeling there, he sighed and said to Guan Chunliang: " Brother, I'm greedy, I'm sorry, I'm here, Mr. Wei can handle it as he pleases."
No wonder Gu Changshun was chosen as the breakthrough point. If there wasn't someone who was relatively familiar with Wei Tao at that stage, Gu Changshun really wouldn't have been chosen.
Guan Chunliang looked at Wei Tao, waiting for him to make a decision.
"You, Fu Xin and Fu Tiesheng can handle things that you, Haiyong, can't handle."
Seeing that Wei Tao didn't say anything, Guan Chunliang knew that this was giving him a huge face, and his brother should handle it by himself.
Hai Yong lowered his head in shame. There were some words he didn't dare to say. He also knew that it was just a moment of anger. To be honest, before doing this, there was a moment in his heart that his elder brother was unfair. Wei Tao was equal to He stepped into the mobile phone store and followed his elder brother into real estate. He was successful in just a few years. Why did he do so well? What's the difference between us?
"They wanted to check whether you had a dark history of colluding with some people when you started your business, and they wanted to have access to your company's finances, but they didn't penetrate it. The finance department is run like an iron barrel by Li Dong, and all the public and unpublicized accounts are... Leave it there for inspection, without any covert actions or defense. Just leave it there for everyone to see." Haiyong knew the rules and had done something wrong. At this time, even his elder brother was implicated. Okay, there’s nothing to say, just tell me what you know.
Lu Jiang was furious. He had restrained his temper a lot in the past year. The shamelessness of the villagers near Tianranju made him feel a little guilty towards his boss. Now that there were so many bastards in the house all of a sudden, he couldn't bear it anymore. He took a book, a rubber hammer, and the book on his back, and he took turns attacking these people.
Hai Yong smiled coquettishly, thinking that he might have caused trouble for his eldest brother: "Since Mr. Wei came to me directly, he must know who is touching you. He should already have a response plan. Judging from your current posture, start from the beginning. Liquidated.”
Guan Chunliang was a bit intolerant, but he could see further and have a broader vision than Haiyong. The gains and losses of Songjiang city and place could not shake Wei Tao at all. At best, if it was unlucky and Cao Haiyang was pulled down, what would happen? Woolen cloth? Anshun Group is gone, Anshun Investment is here, Anshun Film and Television is here, Maoya is here, so what does Anshun Group mean?
Once upon a time, Hai Yong was in front of Wei Tao, who was a big boss in the world of martial arts and had been around for many years. He had asked him for help more than once. In the disputes with Yao Xuejun, Zhu Feng, Qiao Xinhua and others, Hai Yong was in charge of Guan Chunliang. Under the arrangement, he has always supported Wei Tao. It is difficult to calculate how much this support contributes. Let some people directly use force against Wei Tao, which will definitely have the effect of throwing rats away.
"People are bullied for their kindness. I may be too friendly to everyone." Wei Tao spoke for the first time tonight.
He would rather frighten the enemy than frighten them. After careful calculation, it is not just to frighten the enemy. It boils down to the fact that some people in Yanjing are almost done. From now on, one net cannot catch everyone, and there are no such deep grievances. The gang members are all envy, jealousy and hatred, adding insult to injury. If you succeed, they will share the cake. If you fail, isn't there the rightful owner in front? We, at best, are helping out. If Wei Tao gets the advantage, we might do the opposite.
Hai Yong and Wei Tao looked at each other. He understood. He walked forward and took the short blade from Yao Xuejun's hand. Without any hesitation, he put his hand on the stone platform next to him. He stretched out his little finger alone and put the short blade on it. , raise it, chop it very much.
