The "encounter" with Liu Qingzhong was prevaricated by Li Jinming and me.
Watching his back entering the cultural relics management office, I breathed a small sigh of relief.
"Go back quickly, we have to make secondary preparations."
I frowned and took Li Jinming into the car.
"What second-hand preparation?"
Obviously, Li Jinming still doesn't know Liu Qingzhong.
I sent Tao Ronghua in, but Liu Qingzhong never came to see him once.
Liu Qingzhong would not take any action against such a person who was imprisoned after the evidence was conclusive except to cut off the relationship with him.
This time he suddenly visited Tao Ronghua, and the reason was definitely not simple.
The general excuse, like me, is of course New Year greetings.
But I went to Tao Ronghua to learn about Liu Qingzhong’s remaining smuggling routes.
Then what might Liu Qingzhong do when he goes to find Tao Ronghua?
While I was thinking about it, I called Qian Jia and asked him to send a message to his colleagues who were still on duty at the Cultural Relics Management Office.
At least I wanted to overhear what Liu Qingzhong was doing with Tao Ronghua.
When I drove to the villa, Qian Jia was already waiting for me in the lobby.
"The recording has been sent to me."
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and said, "He has deleted the recording on the other end."
With that said, we all went downstairs and sat around the sofa, listening to the conversation between Liu Qingzhong and Tao Ronghua.
Following the recording, my mind has begun to simulate their movements.
"What are you here for?"
Tao Ronghua probably looked at Liu Qingzhong with his brows furrowed.
"I'm here to wish you a happy new year. Shen Fan has come to see you several times."
"As my former boss, I always have to take care of you."
Liu Qingzhong's tone was very gentle and even smiled.
"Huh, come to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. Tell me, what are you doing here?"
Tao Ronghua still had a cold attitude, "I have already promised that I will not tell a word of your secret. Even if I am imprisoned until death, it has nothing to do with you."
Hearing this, I felt relieved. At least Tao Ronghua had a hateful attitude toward Liu Qingzhong.
But the next second, I felt something was wrong.
"Shen Fan sent you in, don't you want revenge?"
Liu Qingzhong spoke slowly, "I can promise him to lock you up forever, but don't you want to struggle yourself?"
Then there was silence in the recording for a while.
I finally understand Liu Qingzhong’s purpose of looking for Tao Ronghua this time - to raise Gu!
As long as Tao Ronghua expressed his intention to be incompatible with me, Liu Qingzhong would probably get Tao Ronghua out.
Even as long as the two of them make things clear, my method of provoking each other between them will be ineffective, and... even a series of my previous plans may be undermined.
"My lawyer said that Shen Fan wants to take action against your casino."
"Are you afraid that my subordinates, after being subdued by Shen Fan, will take his surname Shen?"
Tao Ronghua's words broke the silence, and I relaxed a little.
"Smart, but Shen Fan said this was his plan."
"When the time comes, your little brothers will go in just like you."
Liu Qingzhong said, "This should be Shen Fan's serial plan. You and your men will eventually be caught by Shen Fan."
"What do you want me to do, just tell me."
From Tao Ronghua's tone, I still have a prejudice against Liu Qingzhong.
This keeps things under control.
"Ask your little brother to investigate Shen Fan and keep an eye on him for me."
"As long as he has any rebellious behavior, he will be the one who goes in, and you will be the one who comes out."
Liu Qingzhong spoke slowly and unhurriedly, "We can do the same as before, and I can even let you be responsible for part of the other two lines you haven't seen before."
This "cake" is really big. When I heard this, my heart became more anxious.
"No problem, but...I have a request."
Listening to Tao Ronghua's tone, it seemed that he also relaxed, "If I catch you, I'll give you two casinos."
"No problem, two casinos are too few. I can leave the casinos to you."
Liu Qingzhong started to laugh after saying this, "Of course, you have to let those younger brothers catch the evidence of Shen Fan's rebellion."
"It's a deal."
The conversation ends here. Although I can confirm from the tone that Tao Ronghua did not betray me, there is still a gap between him and Liu Qingzhong.
But this is very dangerous. I'm not sure about Tao Ronghua's...
Suddenly, I reacted.
I can use a divorce plan to drive a wedge between Tao Ronghua and Liu Qingzhong, and then Liu Qingzhong can also use a divorce plan to drive a wedge between me and Tao Ronghua's younger brother.
After all, Tao Ronghua and his subordinates are all his, I can only control them temporarily...
"The problem is not big. It can be controlled here. We plan to continue."
After Qian Jia turned off the recording, I slowly said, "We will continue to implement the plan we mentioned before after the new year."
"By the way, my grandpa has already taken my parents on a trip today. This time it seems they are going to the capital."
Su Yu jumped up and said, "Can we start?"
"Wait for the Chinese New Year and have a good rest."
I still say the same thing.
Even if Uncle Seven leaves Hezhou with his family and some of his men, I still have to wait until after the Chinese New Year.
After the discussion, we began to enjoy the few vacations we had.
According to the plan, Qian Jia and Wang Fan's units will start work after the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Chen Zebin plans to continue on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
We spent a pretty good year in the villa.
Happy time is always short, as fast as the blink of an eye.
After the Chinese New Year, a few of us packed up the villa before leaving with some of our luggage.
This time, there was one more person in the car - Li Jinming.
"Shen Fan, will she live with us from now on?"
Before entering the city, Amelia Su started talking.
I glanced through the rearview mirror. Chen Cheng and Su Yu were both looking at me, and of course Li Jinming was also looking at me.
Apparently, the house rented in Xintiandi only has two bedrooms and one living room.
If Su Yu is added, I can only sleep on the sofa. If Li Jinming is squeezed in, I can't imagine it.
"I rent my own house."
Li Jinming spoke slowly, "I can't disturb you."
"Hey... your house is too small. It would be nice if it could be bigger."
Amelia Su began to complain.
"Shen Fan, doesn't Liu Qingzhong want you to monitor Li Jinming?"
Chen Cheng thought for a moment and finally said, "How about... or squeeze in?"
For this problem, I immediately had a plan.
"Li Jinming, your mission should be to arrest Liu Qingzhong?"
I asked as we drove.
"Absolutely. If the only smuggler from Guangdong and Guangxi who went to Hezhou was Liu Qingzhong, it would be like this."
Li Jinming nodded slightly as he spoke.
"Then let's stay at your house."
I said and glanced at Amelia Su.
"my home?"
"this……"
Su Yu hesitated for a moment and suddenly realized.
