Chapter 32 Chapter 32 To make money
For Sang Baiyu, not being able to capture a person's scent is frustrating.
In order to get close to Chi Zhao and confirm the smell, she also threatened Zhu Jiang.
But no, nothing.
Sang Baiyu was very melancholy.
There really is someone she can't see through~ and it's an old man older than her~
An hour later, Wu Yuanqing walked out of the interrogation room.
Although he was promoted, he didn't like sitting in the office and still liked to go out to the site.
He also knew that rather than saying that he could be promoted smoothly, it would be more accurate to say that Ning Languo lacked someone to take the blame.
Wu Yuanqing sighed, "This Chi Zhao is really smart. I tried to trick him into saying something, but he wouldn't listen. He wouldn't fall for it at all."
Sang Baiyu asked, "Are you going to release Chi Zhao?"
"We can only see if He Li's death is related to him. The driver is emotionally unstable and there's no evidence to prove that Chi Zhao planned the explosion."
With Chi Zhao's connections and status, it is not easy to deal with him.
Wu Yuanqing looked at the file and said, "I don't expect this case to lead to him being implicated, but at least there can be some progress. I've been in Longxinggang for years, running around every day, and I haven't even come close to the Chi family."
There was a smell of potassium nitrate and sulfur in the car that He Li was in.
The trucks were filled with ammonium nitrate, sulfur, aluminum powder, etc. The two vehicles in front and behind were definitely not attacked by the same person, but it was definitely not a coincidence that they exploded at the same time.
It is extremely unlikely that Chi Zhao could be found through the truck, as the explosion would be enough to destroy the evidence.
But it is much easier to find out who wants He Li dead. Whether it is for profit or revenge, they must have contact with him.
It is difficult for Wu Yuanqing to investigate further from the surface.
Sang Baiyu pondered for a moment and said, "I've been keeping an eye on the driver recently. As for He Li... I want to go to his house and take a look."
Ten minutes later, Chi Zhao left the interrogation room.
He smiled and nodded at Wu Yuanqing, seemingly being polite, but in fact it was a blatant provocation.
It’s just that his features are handsome but not sharp enough, so the provocative meaning is largely hidden.
Wu Yuanqing nodded at him, "Thank you for your hard work."
Chi Zhao kept smiling, glancing at Sang Baiyu intentionally or unintentionally.
Sang Baiyu sat obediently, "Uncle Wu, I'll go home after Sister Xiaoman finishes work."
Pretending to be an ordinary person waiting for his sister.
When Wu Yuanqing heard Sang Baiyu's cute tone, he got goosebumps.
This wasn't the time she had to look at a rotting corpse!
Chi Zhao said to Sang Baiyu, "Goodbye."
Sang Baiyu smiled widely, "Goodbye, brother."
Chi Zhao strode out of the police station.
Zhu Jiang and his companions had been waiting for a long time and immediately went forward to welcome him into the car.
Wu Yuanqing shuddered twice.
Sang Baiyu: "?"
Wu Yuanqing pinched his throat and said, "Thank you, brother~"

Su Landi has been away from home often recently, so when Sang Baiyu and Fang Xiaoman return to the jade shop, only Ning Hongying is there to look after it.
The decoration of the jade shop is old. In recent years, China's economic development has been unstoppable, but Longxinggang has been declining, and the business of the jade shop is far worse than before.
Sang Baiyu looked at the counter thoughtfully.
If she hadn't been able to find some good stones, the jade shop's business would have declined, right?
Fang Xiaoman looked around and asked, "My eldest sister isn't here either?"
"Big sister..."
Fang Xiaoman waited patiently.
Ning Hongying: "Eldest sister..."
Fang Xiaoman: “…”
I have no patience at all.
She ran upstairs and came back soon, "Sister, your legs hurt again."
Ning Hongying said, "Just go upstairs and take a look and you'll know. Why would you ask me?"
Fang Xiaoman: “…”
Her sister Hongying never fails to speak well when it comes to insulting others.
Hui Haiming is the oldest and in the worst health.
Especially in recent years, whenever the weather changes slightly, she will feel pain in her legs and back.
Sang Baiyu had seen many old injuries on Hui Haiming's body.
"While my elder sister and second brother are away, let's discuss this," Sang Baiyu said. "Pingxiang Street is different now. We need to make money. We don't need to be conservative. We need to change."
Ning Hongying and Fang Xiaoman's eyes sparkled: "How do we make money?!"
Sang Baiyu said: "Longxinggang is too poor, it would be more appropriate to open a jade shop in Changxia. I will select the jade and I guarantee to make money."
Ning Hongying shook her head and said, "Eldest sister must stay in Longxinggang. Even if the jade shop loses money, she will stay."
Fang Xiaoman curled her lips to express her dissatisfaction, "You guys don't tell me what you have to say."
Ning Hongying: "I... speak... slowly..."
Fang Xiaoman: “…”
Her speaking speed just now was clearly normal!
Ning Hongying said with a smile: "Anyway, you understand. I won't give up until I achieve my goal."
But they refused to tell the two younger ones what the purpose was.
"No matter what Big Sister wants to do, she needs money," Sang Baiyu said. "Without money, nothing can be done. Look at how the Chi family has run so many businesses and now they want to smuggle weapons. Isn't it all for money? We can rent a shop and try it out first. If we can really make it work, we can tell Big Sister."
Ning Hongying was a little tempted when she thought that Sang Baiyu and others had indeed made a lot of money.
And she really hadn't been to Changxia for a long time.
"Then give it a try?"
Sang Baiyu said, "I have something to do tomorrow, so I'll go back to Changxia to look after the shop the day after tomorrow."
Fang Xiaoman asked: "Tomorrow? What's going on tomorrow?"
Sang Baiyu winked at her and said, "Something big is going on."

There are very few high-end residential communities in Longxinggang, and most areas are poor and backward.
He Li's residence before he was imprisoned was in an upscale residential area.
But it was the 1990s after all, and no matter how high-end it was, it couldn't compare with later generations.
At two o'clock in the morning, Fang Xiaoman and Sang Baiyu arrived near He Li's house.
"Uncle Wu gave me the address. They came over around ten o'clock, and Nata is guarding it now."
Fang Xiaoman was surprised and asked, "What's the difference between this and leaving the door open?"
Sang Baiyu: "I think so too."
The two men are worried about the future of the police station.
The high-end residential complex has a doorman, who is from Ninglan.
Sang Baiyu could ask Nata to pick them up, but that would be troublesome, as they would have to wait and would be easily exposed.
The two chose to climb over the wall to enter the community.
The fence of the residential complex was equipped with iron spikes, but this could not stop them, and the two landed easily.
Sang Baiyu found He Li's house according to the address, and saw that it was sealed. The lights in the house were on, and Sang Baiyu could even hear Nata yawning.
Fang Xiaoman whispered, "Is it necessary to avoid Nata? Just tell us and we can go in openly."
Sang Baiyu shook his head. "If we work with the police, it will be too easy for the Chi family to find out. That Chi Zhao knows everything."
"Shall we investigate the cause of He Li's death ourselves?"
Sang Baiyu said: "My elder sister took me in, and I want to do something for her."
Hui Haiming cannot know about this. If I tell her, she will definitely stop it.
Sang Baiyu walked to the door and Fang Xiaoman squatted down to unlock it.
Ten seconds later, the two pushed the door open and walked in.
Sang Baiyu stood in front of the door for a while, then suddenly shook his head, "This is not He Li's home."
