“Hey, wife, what’s up? Didn’t we agree not to contact each other?”
“Cai Chenggong, I don’t want to contact you either, but what did you do? Why is the police involved?”
“Ah? Why is the police looking for me? I didn’t do anything!”
“Nothing? Then why has the police opened an investigation?”
“What? They’ve opened an investigation?”
“Yes! If you don’t show up, they’ll issue a warrant for your arrest on grounds of absconding!”
“I, I, I...”
“What I, I, I? If you don’t want to involve your son, turn yourself in now!”
“嘟嘟嘟...”
Cai Chenggong was finally scared. The situation was spiraling out of control, and there was nothing he could do to salvage it!
He thought long and hard, figuring there might still be a way to save himself.
But before he could find any help, other creditors came knocking!
Cai Chenggong, who had just appeared, was taken away again, with no news from the police.
The situation had reached a stalemate, and Zhao Donglai’s temper flared.
He and Li Dakang had previously commented on other officials, such as Sun Liancheng.
While Sun Liancheng was diligent, in the eyes of Li Dakang and others, he had been working hard for nothing, because he wasn’t in the right position.
So they didn’t think much of someone like Sun Liancheng. What was there to say about a hardworking ox?
Just thinking about how Sun Liancheng might be laughing at him behind his back for his incompetence in finding someone, Zhao Donglai felt a surge of frustration!
Therefore, a few days later, the Jingzhou City Public Security Bureau officially issued a warrant, placing Cai Chenggong on the list of wanted fugitives for embezzlement and absconding.
The creditors who had just apprehended Cai Chenggong were stunned. So, Cai Chenggong had embezzled tens of millions of yuan and was planning to run away?
There was no need for discussion. They had to beat him up and then force him to pay!
But Cai Chenggong truly had no money. The tens of millions of yuan were nowhere to be found, as they had been transferred out by the bank.
So, how could he possibly produce the money?
Facing the threat of death, Cai Chenggong could only lie, claiming he could raise the money, and thus temporarily gaining the opportunity to go home and find it.
However, he was truly helpless. After much thought, he could only turn to his childhood friend, Hou Liangping, for help. At the very least, he needed to save his own life.
He was just about to leave when he saw the warrant.
He couldn’t use public transportation, so he had to drive a stolen car, taking back roads and secluded routes all the way to the capital.
Due to his escape, there was no trace of Cai Chenggong in the Han Dong province.
No matter how anxious Zhao Donglai was, he could at least use the excuse that Cai Chenggong might have fled the Han Dong province to evade responsibility.
But the workers at the Dafeng Factory were dumbfounded!
As the warrant was issued, the workers quickly realized that their problems seemed to have no solution!
Recalling the near-forced demolition incident, they gathered at the Dafeng Factory again, and under the leadership of some radical elements, they decided to protect the factory and their own interests.
The factory protection team was officially established, and the once-normal Dafeng Factory had completely transformed into a fortified position, further escalating the situation.
However, Sun Liancheng had yet to notice what was happening at their end. After all, they rarely left the factory, they mostly produced things inside, so how could they cause any major trouble?
He had nothing pressing to do lately, so he decided to take a vacation and relax.
He didn’t go too far, just visiting some scenic spots around Jingzhou City, taking his daughter along for fun.
Just at this time, at the Shanshui Villa, Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin got together.
“Director Qi, what’s going on? Why was Cai Chenggong suddenly put on the wanted list?”
Qi Tongwei said dejectedly, “I don’t know either. The warrant was issued by the Jingzhou City Public Security Bureau, and it has already been submitted to the department for province-wide release.”
“Ah? Then, then he won’t spill the beans, right?” Gao Xiaoqin was a little scared.
Qi Tongwei said, “It’s uncertain now. It’s best to control him first, to prevent him from talking.”
“Can you find him?”
“I don’t know! I’ve ordered the Jingzhou and other local forces to keep an eye on this matter. Once they discover his whereabouts, they must control him immediately.”
Gao Xiaoqin breathed a sigh of relief but still said with a hint of worry, “I think we need to resolve this quickly, especially the Dafeng Factory. We have to demolish it and complete all the procedures as soon as possible, to avoid further trouble.”
Qi Tongwei asked, “I heard that the workers at the Dafeng Factory are resisting the demolition team by force. Can it be resolved?”
Gao Xiaoqin said, “It’s hard to say! The demolition team is trying to find a way, but those workers are really difficult to deal with. For example, they were stopped by Sun Liancheng, the District Chief of Guangming District, last time. This cake is delicious, but it’s not delicious either!”
“This project has a profit of several hundred million yuan. We must push it forward no matter what. Sigh, think of a way, we must resolve this quickly!”
“Alright! But how did this whole thing get out?”
Qi Tongwei said, “I heard that it was Sun Liancheng, the District Chief of Guangming District, who learned about this while dealing with relocation issues. He heard that you had already paid the compensation, so he believed that Cai Chenggong had absconded with the money, and took the worker representatives to report it to the Public Security Bureau.”
“Just because of that?”
“Yes, isn’t that enough?”
“Why does he mind his own business so much!” Gao Xiaoqin couldn’t help but complain.
Qi Tongwei thought about Sun Liancheng’s situation and suddenly shook his head.
“Sun Liancheng is no ordinary person. You can’t just mess with him.”
Gao Xiaoqin complained, “We want to mess with him, but we can’t! He doesn’t want our money, he doesn’t accept our gifts. We tried to invite him here for dinner, but he refused, he’d rather go to a five-star hotel to eat!”
Qi Tongwei couldn’t help but laugh and said, “You’re going about it the wrong way! Who is Sun Liancheng? He’s the younger brother of Sun Lianguo, the chairman of Feiyang Group. Does he need your money? I heard it before, he’s a talented person, he even made several hundred million yuan from stock trading!”
“Ah? He’s that rich?”
“What do you think? Sigh, if I had his skills, why would I have to do these things?”
Qi Tongwei couldn’t help but think about his experiences over the years, they were truly unbearable!
Aside from continuing to pursue progress, money was the most important thing!
Unfortunately, he didn’t have money, even after getting promoted, he didn’t have much money!
Later, to repay his fellow villagers, he had to illegally arrange jobs for them.
That’s when he started to gradually crave more wealth.
He couldn’t do business, but he was a cadre with a background in law and order, and he was quite adept at exploiting loopholes.
To better do these things, he had to pursue greater power…
In a continuous cycle, he gradually reached where he was today!
