Chapter 1859 Are you teaching me a lesson?

There was a 'crackling' sound of things falling from a courtyard in Beidu!

"Xiao Zhao! Is this all true?" Mr. Zheng looked furious.

Old Zhao on the side nodded and said, "Mr. Zheng, this is indeed true. Chen Zetao called me."

After hearing this, Mr. Zheng frowned. "What's wrong with this Chen Zetao? Why did he notify you after everything was done?"

Old Zhao said with a bitter face, "He doesn't distrust me anymore. You can't blame them for thinking too much after something like this happened. Everyone outside is so scared right now... Old Zheng, you should be able to guess what they're afraid of."

Zheng Lao said angrily: "Are those people confused? How could they do such a thing? What's the reason?"

Old Zhao said, "Their reason is that they hope Xiao Peng can make more contributions. Xiao Peng hasn't made any major moves recently, so they..."

"What's wrong with them?" Old Zheng said angrily, "Didn't our country develop well even without Xiao Peng? Xiao Peng is just a helper. Doesn't it mean that without Xiao Peng, our country won't develop? They pin all their hopes on one person? And how can they be so confident that they can control Xiao Peng to do what they say? Don't they know what kind of temper this Xiao Peng has? Is that guy easy to talk to? He's a donkey, a scoundrel who 'can't move forward even if you hit him, and can't move backward even if you pull him.' Everything is done according to his own preferences!"

Old Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Now I feel like I'm rewatching a real-life version of Journey to the West. Just because I'm afraid of Sun Wukong's abilities, I want to put a tight headband on him!"

After hearing this, Mr. Zheng was furious: "That would require the 'tightening curse'! How can they be so confident that they can control Xiao Peng? Wait, didn't they attack 'Xiao Pavilion'?"

Old Zhao thought for a moment and replied, "Mr. Zheng, no one took action against 'Xiaoguan'. After all, the spotlight was too high, and they wouldn't dare do such a thing in public... But do you remember the RMB account that Xiao Peng used to hold gold and other heavy metals in China? That account was tampered with. Over 170 billion RMB was transferred and controlled! And there are signs that his two funds were misappropriated!"

"What?" Mr. Zheng jumped up from his chair after hearing this. "Who did this? How dare they touch this money! If other people overseas knew about this, who would dare to work for the country?"

After hearing this, Old Zhao took out a file bag and handed it to Old Zheng. "Old Zheng, this isn't the first time they've done this. In fact, Xiao Peng and the others learned about this because a previous victim couldn't stand it anymore, so they secretly tipped them off. We haven't found out who tampered with such a large sum of money, and it wouldn't be difficult to find out who tampered with it."

After taking the file bag and looking at the contents inside, Mr. Zheng's expression became increasingly grim. Finally, he slammed the file on the table and said, "Whose grandson did this?"

Old Zhao was silent for a moment and then said, "Mr. Zheng, it's your grandson!"

The atmosphere in the room became awkward.

Mr. Zheng looked at Old Zhao and said, "Xiao Zhao, I know you think I'm angry and want to lighten the atmosphere, but don't you think your joke is too inappropriate?"

Old Zhao quickly explained, "Mr. Zheng, I'm not kidding. Your great-grandson is in St. Petersburg right now. The list of personnel going to the New Calypso was personally drawn up by your eldest grandson."

After hearing this, Mr. Zheng was silent for a while before asking, "Xiao Zhao, did you say Zheng Jing is in St. Petersburg now?"

"Your granddaughter-in-law, Ou Hongcai, also went with them." Old Zhao checked his watch and said, "According to the time, they should have contacted Xiao Peng by now."

After hearing this, Mr. Zheng laughed out loud: "That's great! That's great! He is the pride of our Zheng family..."

Old Zhao hurriedly said, "Mr. Zheng, this is not the time for you to be angry. We need to think about how to solve the problem now."

Elder Zheng asked, "What's Xiao Peng's reaction now?"

Old Zhao said, "He didn't react in any other way. Just like I told you at the beginning, Chen Zetao found a way to get his grandfather's family out of the country. Chen Zetao has been involved in smuggling for years, so getting someone out isn't difficult. There's been no activity at 'Xiao Pavilion,' however. This is beyond my imagination. After all, with Chen Zetao's abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for him to smuggle some valuables out. Maybe they didn't want to make too much of a fuss."

Zheng Laodao: "It may also be that Xiao Peng doesn't care about those things at all."

Old Zhao was silent for a while and then nodded: "Although I don't want to admit it, this makes sense."

Elder Zheng asked, "Did Chen Zetao tell you where he sent Grandpa Xiao Peng and his family?"

Old Zhao said, "He didn't say anything. When he told me this, Grandpa Xiao Peng and his family had already been sent away!"

"Why didn't he say it earlier?" Zheng Lao said angrily.

"After something like this happened... Chen Zetao was heartbroken! He only told me this time because of our decades-long friendship." Old Zhao said, "After all, they're your family. They don't know if this was your idea. But I think I can guess where they went."

"Where is it?" Mr. Zheng asked quickly.

Old Zhao asked, "Do you remember the Faroe Islands authorities gifting Xiao Peng an island?"

After hearing this, Mr. Zheng nodded and said, "Of course I remember. Xiao Peng spent a lot of money on construction there, solving many employment problems for local people. That's why we were able to introduce the 5G system to the Faroe Islands. You mean..."

Lao Zhao nodded and said, "Their target is most likely the Faroe Islands!"

"What's the point of going there?" Zheng Lao said angrily, "There's not even a single person there!"

After hearing this, Old Zhao said helplessly, "Where else would you let him go? Mr. Zheng, I think Brother Xiao did a good job this time. He gave us some room to maneuver. Otherwise, if he went to the Americans, what would the result be?"

"He wouldn't do that, would he?" Old Zheng was stunned. "After all, he was the one who orchestrated the 'Sculpin Fish' incident."

Old Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Zheng, think about how much money Xiao Peng has? Think about how much he can accomplish. Mr. Zheng, please forgive me for being frank, but it's not easy for our people to work abroad. Xiao Peng has emerged in recent years and has finally revitalized the situation in Europe. Do we have to force all the useful people out? Europe wants to control him, but he would rather go to Russia and suffer than give in. Why are our own people stabbing them in the back?"

After hearing this, Mr. Zheng said angrily, "Are you lecturing me? I don't know anything about this!"

"But others don't think so." Old Zhao shook his head.

Old Zhao's words silenced Old Zheng for a long while. "What a misfortune for our family! No! I want to see if what I, an old man, say in our Zheng family still counts! No, please help me contact Xiao Xiao first!"
