"It's you?!" Zhang Guodong exclaimed in surprise.

Zhang Guodong was bewildered that this alluring woman would call him and betray Liu Haojun.

What kind of show is this? Zhang Guodong was wary of this woman.

Sister Mei chuckled and said, "Aren't you surprised? Why would I betray Liu Haojun?"

"Why did you call me?" Zhang Guodong snorted and frowned as he asked.

"Because I hate him too!" Sister Mei's tone changed, filled with hatred and a hint of madness. "Can't you understand? Why does Liu Haojun think he can just play around with women whenever he has money? Do you know how I got together with him? I was raped. He used my family as leverage to force me into submission! Heh heh, did you think I'd forgotten after a year? No! I'm going to get my revenge!"

"He took me, but he never treated me as a woman, but as a plaything, a gift he could hand over to someone else when necessary! He has many other women, prefers virgins, and has sex with numerous women in front of me! Today, he actually made me sleep with a deputy bureau chief!"

Ren Meijie's accusations were filled with anger and she lost her composure.

Zhang Guodong would not easily trust this woman. At this moment, he recalled everything that happened in the black market. This woman was very cunning!

How can I trust you?

“I have a lot of evidence of Liu Haojun’s crimes and some ledgers of bribery, which I can give to you!” Sister Mei said.

Zhang Guodong was then taken aback.

Evidence of a crime? Ledgers? If we had these things, wouldn't it guarantee Liu Haojun would never be able to recover?

"Oh? What are your requirements?" Zhang Guodong was tempted, but he knew there was no such thing as a free lunch.

Sister Mei smiled, her expression purposeful: "Liu Haojun's schemes are mine, and no one is allowed to investigate further. This is my reward for over a year. Moreover, I know of Liu Haojun's secret private vault, containing a large amount of cash, at least thirty million! You can take as much money as you want from the vault. Besides, if you're interested in my looks, I'm yours too—"

This is the allure of nudity!

**The lure of money!**

To be honest, Sister Mei is quite beautiful without her makeup. But Zhang Guodong wasn't interested!

That 30 million in cash!

It would be a lie to say Zhang Guodong wasn't tempted.

But is it really that easy to break into a vault? Is it that easy to take money? We don't even know if it exists!

“I’ve been inside that vault once, but they weigh you both when you go in and out. If you’re too heavy or too light, or if your weight is outside the acceptable range, the door automatically seals!” Sister Mei said with a smile. “But there’s no one guarding it!”

Damn, this is the Tomb of the Living Dead!

Sister Mei didn't say the next thing: "There's an alarm system on the door, and the police can arrive in a very short time!" This was Liu Haojun's precaution, to prevent anyone from forcibly breaking in from the outside.

Liu Haojun loves cash the most; he only feels at ease when he sees cash! It's a major addiction.

She had already obtained the access code! However, how to withdraw the money was Zhang Guodong's concern. This was a private transaction.

"Give me the ledgers and evidence of the crime first! I'll help you within the bounds of the law!" Zhang Guodong said after thinking for a moment. His words sounded a bit unconvincing.

In his heart, he didn't believe in mere words, but only in evidence.

Unexpectedly, Sister Mei readily agreed, and the two arranged to meet at the 'Tang Dynasty Bar'.

Before long, the fat man arrived at Green Treasure Pavilion, shaking his head and saying to Zhang Guodong, "Guodong, this time there's a bit of trouble. There's an old man with a stubborn temper. Bring some vegetables and seafood and come with me!"

"You want me to go and apologize? Don't even think about it!" Zhang Guodong refused without hesitation. He was still furious about it; he was clearly the victim, so why should he be the one to apologize? He was the one in the wrong!

Is she still a victim?

The fat man gave a wry smile; Zhang Guodong's temper was flaring. This was unacceptable to anyone, but circumstances forced him to act. He didn't know which bastard had mentioned Green Treasure Pavilion to that stubborn old Secretary Gu, and Secretary Gu had immediately lost his temper. Selling vegetables at such high prices was disrupting the market economy; this had to be thoroughly investigated, and such private entities must be severely punished.

But if he didn't apologize in person, Fatty was worried that Zhang Guodong would suffer a loss. So Fatty painstakingly explained the seriousness of the situation to Zhang Guodong one by one.

How could Zhang Guodong possibly compromise again? A phone call from Sister Mei tempted him, but first he needed to see if the criminal evidence and ledgers were genuine. If they were, what then?

"Don't try to persuade me anymore. I have to go out now. You and I are at the Tang Dynasty Bar!" Zhang Guodong said, shaking his head.

The fat man asked in confusion, "What are we going there for?"

"Meet a woman!" Zhang Guodong said.

"Damn it!" the fat man muttered, annoyed. How could he possibly be in the mood for dating a woman right now? But what could he do when his brother was being bossed around?

Driving to Datang Bar, Fatty never expected that the woman Zhang Guodong met was actually Liu Haojun's woman, Sister Mei!

At this moment, Anita Mui had removed her heavy makeup, looking much lighter and more natural.

As soon as Zhang Guodong arrived, he nodded to Sister Mei and got straight to the point: "Where are the things?"

Sister Mei was straightforward. She took out a thick file folder from her bag, glanced at the fat man, and said to Zhang Guodong with a charming smile, "Don't forget our agreement!"

The agreement was that law enforcement would no longer investigate the ownership of the "Big Name Hall," which required Zhang Guodong to handle. In Sister Mei's eyes, Zhang Guodong was capable. As for the formalities, Sister Mei was surprisingly confident she could handle them herself. How had she managed to convince Liu Haojun? Zhang Guodong didn't think much of it.

"If this is true, I will let you know—" Zhang Guodong glanced at her, quickly opened the file folder, looked inside, and then put it away with peace of mind.

Let's go!

The fat man following behind was full of questions. He had naturally met Sister Mei before, and he knew that Jiahao and Da Mingtang were rivals, as well as the woman next to Liu Haojun.

But how did my brother get involved with this woman? He went with her, and all he got was a file folder.

Once in the car, the fat man finally couldn't hold back and roared, "Guodong, what exactly are you up to? What's your relationship with this woman?"

Zhang Guodong smiled without saying a word, opened the file bag, and took out a stack of documents. He found that there were not only account books, but also a lot of photos, including obscene photos and photos of bribery, which were taken by a special person at a very correct angle.

But one of the sets left Zhang Guodong stunned!

That's clearly a photo of Liu Haojun and Director Liu. It shows that Liu Haojun gave away a box of money, which Director Liu eventually took away. Was this from the time he met Li Ningguang?

"Damn, where did they get all this?" The fat man glanced at the photos and was immediately taken aback. He recognized some of the people in the pictures. They were all high-ranking officials, and the photos showed scenes of bribery and corruption. This was unbelievable! How were these photos taken?

Zhang Guodong's heart skipped a beat. Instead of answering, he asked, "How many directors in the Industry and Commerce Bureau have the surname Liu?"

“There’s only one executive deputy director named Liu Wenjun. Look, that’s the guy!” the fat man said, pointing to the person in the photo.

Once the situation became clear, Zhang Guodong immediately connected the dots.

This matter is related to Liu Haojun, so Liu Wenjun can't escape it either. Sister Mei didn't lie to him this time!

“Fatty, the one who caused this trouble is probably Liu Haojun. Not long ago, I made him lose a million, and we became enemies. Have someone authenticate these documents. I'm leaving the matter to you. I won't interfere with how you handle it; do whatever is profitable for you. If these things are genuine, then if it's convenient, please give Da Mingtang some pointers. This is part of the deal with Sister Mei, and Da Mingtang will be transferred to her name!” Zhang Guodong, having confirmed something, shoved the documents into Fatty's hands and said.

"Why am I always the one running errands?" The fat man was stunned. Zhang Guodong actually caused Liu Haojun to lose a million? What's going on? The fat man also figured out the deal with Sister Mei.

But brothers are just for bossing around! Who told him to be Zhang Guodong's best friend?

"Who else would I ask if not you to run errands?" Zhang Guodong laughed.

"You're ruthless!" the fat man said, giving the middle finger.

"Hehe, after this is done, you can have as much blackfish or eel as you like!" Zhang Guodong laughed. He thought to himself, "You've been making me so envious all this time, always saying you need to nourish yourself. Now that this is over, I'm off to dig for treasure! Want some good food? Maybe later!"

At the same time, Zhang Guodong also had plans. The blackfish in Taoyuan reproduced too quickly, so he would sell a batch before they were ready to be harvested, and keep only enough for his own consumption.

The fat man's eyes lit up at the mention of this, then he asked in confusion, "Why didn't you say so earlier? Wait, didn't you finish? Why is there more?"

“When did I say we’re done eating black carp and eels? That was before the New Year. Now we’ve got some genuine wild ones. My friend said the quantity isn’t large, but it’s not small either. I plan to buy a batch in the next few days to sell to Jiahao. It won’t be convenient to eat them later!” Zhang Guodong rolled his eyes.

"How can you sell it all? You have to leave enough for me to eat!" the fat man exclaimed anxiously. How had this guy become such a miser, even selling his food?

That's not a grass carp!

Zhang Guodong chuckled and said, "In a while, I'm going to go into the mountains to dig for treasure. I've heard there aren't many people digging for treasure in the mountains these days, so I'll go and see for myself!"

That priceless tree must be considered a treasure, right?

That's true.

Today, society and the economy have developed, but the environment is still being damaged. The skies above cities are filled with filth, dark and murky. It's really hard to find anything truly pristine.

Prehistoric relics from millions or even hundreds of millions of years ago are becoming increasingly rare. After Zhang Guodong acquired Taoyuan, and as Taoyuan continues to expand, these insane ideas began to take hold.

Zhang Guodong has a great interest in exploring the mysterious and the magical.

The fat man stared at Zhang Guodong, who had a longing look on his face, and was a little dumbfounded: It's an illusion, how did this guy suddenly develop such an otherworldly aura? Is he out of his mind?

“Last time Liu Haojun lost a million, but I made a million. The money came from the flower and tree business! The profits were huge!” Zhang Guodong exclaimed.

His aloof image crumbled instantly, and the fat man, speechless, gave him the middle finger again: "Wait for my news!"

An hour later, Zhang Guodong received a call from Sister Mei. She was excited, but her tone was joyful: "Zhang Guodong, Liu Haojun has been arrested! I've got the big deal in hand, and now I can fulfill part of my promise. Let's meet at the usual place!"

But how to get the money? That's a huge problem, isn't it? Sister Mei thought to herself.

P.S.: Second update.
