Chapter 8
Confronting Gao Xiaoqin, Li Dakang Takes Charge!

At the Chai City exit of the Shengyan Expressway, the police force arranged by Qi Tongwei intercepted Ding Yizhen's car.

There was no need to wait until Yantaishan; Ding Yizhen's flight had already left the domestic airspace and reached international airspace at this time.

Moreover, Ding Yizhen was on a flight to the US. Even if they knew he was on that flight, they couldn't do anything about it.

Therefore, Qi Tongwei could end this show early, and at the same time, he was showing that he had already made every effort in the arrest of Ding Yizhen.

Ding Yizhen's car was stopped by Qi Tongwei's police force. Needless to say, there was only one driver in the car, plus Ding Yizhen's cell phone hidden in the back seat.

Learning that Ding Yizhen's phone was set to silent, Chen Hai finally realized: "Ding Yizhen deliberately left his phone in the car to mislead us."

Obviously, Ding Yizhen setting his phone to silent was clearly to prevent the driver from knowing that the phone was in the car, so as to avoid suspicion.

Qi Tongwei chuckled inwardly but kept a serious face: "This shows that Ding Yizhen has a certain level of anti-investigation awareness."

Ding Yizhen was indeed very cunning, but he couldn't escape in such a short time alone.

His escape was arranged by Gao Xiaoqin, and with Qi Tongwei's cooperation, he was able to escape smoothly.

Chen Hai, who was in the dark, was still trying to salvage the situation, asking: "Where did Ding Yizhen separate from the driver?"

The police officer on the scene reported: "Yifu East Road."

Chen Hai hurriedly said: "Get the surveillance footage from around Yifu East Road."

The surveillance footage from around Yifu East Road was retrieved, and it didn't take long to find the footage of Ding Yizhen getting out of the car.

Following the surveillance footage, they discovered that Ding Yizhen was indeed cunning and cautious. After getting out of the car, he walked four blocks before taking a taxi to the airport.

Continuing to investigate, they received information from the airport and finally confirmed Ding Yizhen's whereabouts: Ding Yizhen, under the alias Tom Ding, boarded a flight to the US two hours ago.

Qi Tongwei went to Gao Yuliang's residence and personally reported Ding Yizhen's escape to him.

Gao Yuliang was reading a book. Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's report, he immediately became furious.

"Good, the public security and procuratorial authorities captured Ding Yizhen, and he escaped!"

"Qi Tongwei, you're a good public security director, you're promising!"

Gao Yuliang was furious, holding the book he was reading and pointing it at Qi Tongwei, his arm trembling in anger.

Qi Tongwei quickly bowed his head and apologized: "I should be responsible for this, Teacher Gao, I admit my mistake."

Gao Yuliang roared: "What Teacher Gao, how many times have I told you, call me by my position when we're working!"

Qi Tongwei apologized again: "Yes, Secretary Yuliang!"

Gao Yuliang slightly suppressed his anger and asked: "Which flight did he take, domestic civil aviation?"

Qi Tongwei replied: "If it were domestic civil aviation, we would find a way to detain him at the airport. He took a United Airlines flight. We contacted Yancheng Air Traffic Control and tried to intercept him within the national border, but we were too late."

Gao Yuliang raised his voice and said: "Then request Interpol to apprehend him and extradite him when he arrives at the final airport."

Qi Tongwei said: "Don't get angry, Secretary Yuliang. We don't have an extradition treaty with the US, so our corrupt officials all run to the US."

Gao Yuliang slammed the book in his hand in anger. This incident of Ding Yizhen's escape happened just as Sha Rujing, the new provincial party secretary, arrived.

The failure of the operation to capture Ding Yizhen, whether it was the responsibility of the prosecution or the public security, ultimately fell on Gao Yuliang, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee.

Presenting such a "gift" to Sha Rujing upon his arrival, how would Sha Rujing view this failure? How would he view Gao Yuliang... Thinking about this, Gao Yuliang felt extremely frustrated.

Originally, Gao Yuliang wanted to use this to give Li Dakang a hard time. Now, instead of giving Li Dakang a hard time, he has given himself a lot of trouble.

...

Li Dakang didn't have Gao Yuliang's worries. On his first night in this world, he slept soundly.

The next morning, Li Dakang didn't go to the office immediately. When it was time for work, he first went to the office with Ouyang Jing to get their divorce certificate.

Ordinary people need to go to relevant departments to get their divorce certificate, but Li Dakang didn't need to. The staff came to provide the service.

Li Dakang agreed to take care of his daughter's 1 million yuan in support, and Ouyang Jing wrote it down in the divorce agreement without hesitation.

Both sides signed and sealed it, and the marriage was considered dissolved. Li Dakang and Ouyang Jing's 20-year marriage came to an end.

After sending the staff away, Ouyang Jing suddenly felt a little sad: "It's true what they say, couples are like birds in the same forest, when disaster strikes they fly away. Ha!"

Li Dakang sighed: "We've been separated for so many years, our marriage has been in name only for a long time. Since you want to go and accompany your daughter, you should leave sooner rather than later."

This last sentence was a very subtle reminder. Considering that the original Li Dakang did owe Ouyang Jing something, he reminded her to leave as soon as possible.

As for whether Ouyang Jing understood or not, Li Dakang didn't care. He had reminded her, which was enough. He couldn't risk his own safety to help Ouyang Jing.

Ouyang Jing, who was furious, understood Li Dakang's reminder and said angrily: "Didn't you say last night that you would take care of the Dafeng Factory within three days?"

Li Dakang retorted impatiently: "I can take care of the Dafeng Factory quickly, but what does that have to do with you going abroad to accompany Jiajia?"

Ouyang Jing was stunned. She realized something was wrong. She stood there for a while before asking: "Li Dakang, is there going to be some big action from above?"

"I don't know, even if I did, I wouldn't tell you." Li Dakang didn't want to say anything. He left after saying this.

That was all he would say. Ouyang Jing's fate was in her own hands. She shouldn't be so stupid. After what he said, she should understand that she needs to run away as soon as possible, right?

Li Dakang was being selfish in this matter. If Ouyang Jing went abroad to take care of Li Jiajia, he wouldn't have to worry about his stepdaughter.

If Ouyang Jing was foolish enough not to leave quickly and was later detained by Hou Liangping, there would be no one to take care of Li Jiajia, and he would have to worry about her in the end.

...

After completing the divorce procedures, on his way to the city government office, Li Dakang called Sun Liancheng, asking him to call Gao Xiaoqin from the Shanshui Group to discuss matters.

Sun Liancheng was overjoyed: "Secretary Li, are you planning to personally tackle this tough nut, the Dafeng Factory?"

The Dafeng Factory was the toughest bone to crack in the Guangming Peak Project. Although the demolition procedures had been completed, it hadn't been demolished yet.

This is a long story. Cai Chenggong, the owner of the Dafeng Factory, used all the shares of the Dafeng Factory as collateral and borrowed 60 million yuan from the Shanshui Group as a bridge loan, with an agreement to use it for six days, with an interest rate of 0.4% per day.

Six days later, the 80 million yuan loan that Cai Chenggong had applied for from Jingzhou City Bank should have been available. He could then repay the 60 million yuan bridge loan and the corresponding interest to the Shanshui Group on time.

However, Jingzhou City Bank suddenly changed its mind and refused to release the 80 million yuan loan. Cai Chenggong couldn't repay the principal and interest of the 60 million yuan bridge loan he borrowed from the Shanshui Group.

Calculated at daily interest, this bridge loan was a high-interest loan. 60 million yuan, with a daily interest rate of 0.4%, resulted in a daily interest of 240,000 yuan. Calculated at 30 days per month, the interest reached 7.2 million yuan.

After several months, the 60 million yuan that Cai Chenggong borrowed from the Shanshui Group became 70 million yuan, 80 million yuan, 90 million yuan... with interest.

Half a year later, the court, based on the pledge agreement, awarded the shares of the Dafeng Factory that Cai Chenggong had pledged to Gao Xiaoqin's Shanshui Group.

If all the shares of the Dafeng Factory were owned by Cai Chenggong, it wouldn't be a problem. However, the shares of the Dafeng Factory weren't solely owned by Cai Chenggong.

Cai Chenggong only owned 60% of the shares of the Dafeng Factory, while the remaining 40% were owned by the employees of the Dafeng Factory. Cai Chenggong had no right to pledge these 40% of the shares to the Shanshui Group.

As a result, the Shanshui Group wanted to demolish the Dafeng Factory, but the employees naturally wouldn't agree. Therefore, the employees of the Dafeng Factory organized a factory protection team to resist the Shanshui Group's forced demolition.

If the Dafeng Factory wasn't demolished, it would be like a piece of chewing gum stuck to the Guangming Peak Project, but the water here was too deep. Even Ding Yizhen, the previous general commander, couldn't solve it, and Sun Liancheng was even less able to solve it.

"The hard nut isn't the Dafeng Factory, it's the Shanshui Group! Invite Gao Xiaoqin from the Shanshui Group to my office. I will personally crack this tough nut!"

Li Dakang said. The Dafeng Factory wasn't hard, the Shanshui Group was the real hard nut. The Shanshui Group was backed by Qi Tongwei, and even more terrifying, by the Zhao family. Li Dakang had to personally take charge!
