Chapter 324: Seeking Help

Tang Shuo stopped Jesus with a smile and said, "One of us."

Jesus looked at Tang Shuo in surprise, then put the gun away.

He has been with Tang Shuo almost all the time. When did this guy arrange this?

At this moment, several coast guard patrol boats, connected in a row, instantly sprang into action. Several of them went directly to rescue the smugglers along the way, while the remaining one headed directly towards Tang Shuo's position.

A middle-aged man in a Coast Guard uniform saluted the speedboat and asked, "Who is Tang Shuo?"

Tang Shuo smiled and said, "It's me."

"My name is An Haichang. I'm the captain of the 20th Squadron of the South China Sea Coast Guard. Secretary Yang asked me to come here." The middle-aged man introduced himself.

Tang Shuo and his companions then boarded the Coast Guard patrol boat. After shaking hands with An Haichang, Tang Shuo said to Wang Zhong, "Where's the evidence?"

Wang Zhong took out the documents from his arms. Because the documents were originally placed in a leather document bag, and Wang Zhong had carefully kept it, not much water had entered it.

Tang Shuo handed the evidence to the other party and pointed at Qiao Bazhi and said, "He is Qiao Yong."

An Haichang nodded, gestured to several of his men behind him, and then someone immediately came forward to help Qiao Bazhi put on handcuffs.

Qiao Bazhi faced the sea breeze, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath of the salty, moist air. After the handcuffs were put on, his expression suddenly became unusually relaxed. He turned to Tang Shuo and said, "Thank you."

“…”

Tang Shuo looked at Qiao Bazhi who was not brought into the cabin and shook his head helplessly.

He and Qiao Bazhi had an irreconcilable conflict, so naturally he wouldn't let him go. And judging by the crimes Qiao Bazhi had committed, he would probably spend the rest of his life in prison, which was a form of punishment for him.

"I'm sorry, we don't have any clothes prepared. You'll have to hold on a little longer, but we'll be at Shuiwan Pier in fifteen minutes." An Haichang said with a smile, "Stay here for now. I'll come find you after we reach the shore. I'll go take care of things over there first."

They rescued nearly twenty smugglers that night, most of whom were from Hong Kong, so this matter needs to be reported.

"Thank you." Tang Shuo thanked.

An Haichang nodded and walked straight towards the cabin.

After An Haichang left, Tang Shuo looked at Wang Zhong and asked, "What are your plans now?"

Wang Zhong shook his head in confusion. He didn't even know where to go now, so what plans could he make?

"I don't know, but I don't want to be contaminated by any more dirty things." Wang Zhong laughed innocently and replied, "It would be best if I could get married and have a baby."

Tang Shuo smiled and pulled out the check for the remaining 50 million yuan after Qiao Bazhi's donation from his pocket. He handed it to Wang Zhong and said, "This is the reward I promised you."

The quality of the check was excellent and was not affected at all by Tang Shuo entering the water. However, this should be the world's first Swiss bank check that had been swam.

Wang Zhong took it, looked at it, and immediately stuffed the check back into Tang Shuo's pocket. He shook his head vigorously and said, "I can't take this."

When he agreed to Tang Shuo to go undercover with Qiao Bazhi, Tang Shuo promised that when Qiao Bazhi was killed, he would give him all the rare antiques in Qiao Bazhi's house.

Everything went smoothly up front, but who would have thought that such a big problem would arise in the end.

He didn't even dare to think about any reward now. Being alive until now was already a good reward.

Tang Shuo stuffed the check directly into Wang Zhong's pocket and said, "This is what I promised you. It's what you deserve, so don't be polite. Qiao Bazhi's antiques may be more valuable, but you won't have a chance to keep them."

In fact, compared with what Wang Zhong did, this amount of money was not much. He had been serious and responsible in the past few months and had been risking his life at any time. Tang Shuo naturally would not care about these things.

Moreover, upon closer inspection, the source of this money was definitely not legitimate, so it was appropriate to give it to Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong lowered his head and thought about it, then he stopped refusing and silently accepted the money.

He didn't have a penny on him except for two credit cards that would be blocked soon, and he really needed some money.

But in his heart, his feeling towards Tang Shuo suddenly changed greatly.

The other party could have simply not given him the money, but he chose to fulfill his original promise. How could an ordinary person do such a thing?

Wang Zhong silently made a decision in his heart, but he did not show it.

The patrol boat quickly docked, and a large number of armed police were already standing guard at the dock. After watching Qiao Bazhi being escorted to the police car, Tang Shuo parted ways with Jesus and Wang Zhong, borrowed a phone from An Haichang, and contacted Secretary Yang.

Tang Shuo had already reported this matter to Yang Guangyue before coming to Guangyue. After all, most of Qiao Bazhi's companies were in Guangyue.

If the truth comes out, as it involves such a large amount of money, although Yang Guangyue will not bear the main responsibility, he will inevitably be affected.

After chatting with Yang Guangyue for a few words, Tang Shuo asked him about Yang Chen's news.

After learning that Yang Chen had not rested, Tang Shuo unceremoniously asked the other party to pick him up.

Neither he nor Jesus had any means of communication on them, and they were penniless, so naturally they had to shamelessly ask for help.

Yang Guangyue agreed happily and hung up the phone.

…

Guangyue urban area.

After Yang Guangyue hung up the phone with Tang Shuo, he closed a book on the table, got up, walked to a bedroom opposite the study and knocked on the door.

After a long while, Yang Chen's sleepy voice finally came from inside. Yang Guangyue opened the door and walked in. He said to the half-asleep Yang Chen, "Wake up first. Tang Shuo is at Shuiwan Wharf now. Go pick him up."

"No." Yang Chen said dissatisfiedly.

"Hurry up and get up. It's just a simple matter of going to pick him up. It won't take much." Yang Guangyue shook his head helplessly and said, "Besides, he's your boss. What's the big deal if he asks you to go and pick him up?"

"What's wrong with the boss?" Yang Chen muttered, "Does the boss have the right to exploit employees' rest time at will?"

"You, you..." Yang Guangyue smiled and said, "This is in China. Don't bring up your American experience."

To be able to become a high-ranking official like Yang Guangyue, one's vision must have been trained to be very sharp.

When Yang Chen just returned to China, he knew that his son was totally unsuitable for a career in politics, and it would be absolutely impossible even with his support.

So he sent Yang Chen to Tang Shuo in disguise, and this decision did not disappoint him at all.

In fact, the contact between him and Tang Shuo was not that much, but the way Tang Shuo did things left a very deep impression on him. In addition, with Wang Jianjun behind him, Yang Guangyue was optimistic about Tang Shuo's development potential.

Just like the incident with Qiao Bazhi this time, he knew without even guessing that there must be some grudge between Tang Shuo and Qiao Bazhi, otherwise why would the other party go to Hong Kong and make a scene because of such a thing?

But Tang Shuo told him about this first, so not only did he have to help the other party, but he also had to thank him.

This is not a matter of whether it is a means or not, but rather a kind of wisdom in dealing with things.

It would only benefit Yang Chen himself if he could establish a good relationship with such a person.

Yang Chen was actually a little unhappy because his sweet dream was disturbed. He had already sat up while Yang Guangyue was talking and said, "I understand."

Yang Guangyue smiled and said, "Go quickly."

"Yeah." Yang Chen agreed and said while changing his clothes, "Dad, go to bed early."

"Don't worry, I have something to talk to Tang Shuo about later." Yang Guangyue said.

"Wouldn't it be the same if we got up and talked about it tomorrow morning?" Yang Chen frowned. "As a young man, I can hardly stand staying up late. How can your body handle it?" Lai Doudong asked.

"Go to hell." Yang Guangyue pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "You kid are meddling in my affairs."

Yang Chen smacked his lips, knowing that he couldn't persuade the other party, so he said no more.

After changing his clothes, he immediately went downstairs and drove to pick up Tang Shuo.
