After the meeting, Liu 꿗꽮 took Su Lie back to the office.
Su Lie attended the meeting, but he remained silent throughout.
"Director Su, it's up to you from now on. Arrange the drug clearance work immediately after you return."
Su Lie nodded and asked, "Deputy Mayor, are we just going through the motions or are we serious about this?"
Liu thought for a while and said, "We should give the mayor some face, but we can't just do it without any action. His people can be left alone, and his territory can be a little loose. But we must be ruthless in schools and other places, investigate and arrest everyone, and never let anyone go."
"Also, this time we have to make a big move. At the same time, let the public know that we are determined to eradicate drugs. So, don't worry too much. We can leave the core of the Youth Gang alone, but we still have to arrest those people under them."
"Understood. I'll go back and arrange it."
"Um."
After receiving positive instructions, Su Lie rushed back to the police station without stopping.
After the meeting, Wang Huan was full of anger.
"This Liu Xiaoxiao was so rude today. He didn't take me seriously at all. He didn't even inform me in advance about such an important matter as drug eradication. He brought it up in front of so many people. Isn't this embarrassing for me?" Wang Huan said angrily to the secretary beside him while sitting on the chair as soon as he returned to the office.
Secretary Huang Tao said: "What the mayor said is true. What Liu 꿗꽮 did this time was indeed inappropriate. Isn't it obvious that the sudden drug raid is targeting us?"
"Um?"
Wang Huan was slightly stunned and looked at Huang Tao: "What do you mean? Do you mean that Liu 꿗꽮 did this because of me?"
"Mayor, this is obvious. I think his drug raid is fake. Maybe he wants to take this opportunity to raid us. There are so many places in the South China Sea, there must be some unclean ones. If we really let them mess around like this, how can we do business?"
"He dares to do that?"
This made Wang Huan cautious, and he said, "What you said is not impossible. Liu has been on the same side with me these years, but in fact he is always on guard against me. He never gets involved in business matters. Now I think he wants to protect himself."
"Mayor, could it be that he heard something and is doing this now in an effort to distance himself from us?"
Wang Huan frowned: "It's not impossible, is it possible that the outside world has already started to pay attention to the South China Sea?"
"Mayor, if this is true, what should we do?"
"snort."
Wang Huan snorted coldly: "I have been operating in the South China Sea for so long, and not everyone can overthrow me. If this is really the case, Liu, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"So how should we respond to this drug raid?"
"Let's see Liu's attitude first. If he really does something ruthless, we don't have to give him face. Also, notify the Second Master and ask him to tell his people to keep a low profile for the time being."
"He just won't listen to advice. Over the years, I've been asking him to shut down those shameful businesses, but he won't listen. What I'm most worried about now is that he's doing something behind my back."
"Especially drugs, don't touch them. This stuff not only harms others, but also yourself. The country has zero tolerance for drugs. If you really do this, you will be investigated sooner or later. You are close to him, you should persuade him not to touch it."
Huang Tao nodded slightly: "Yes. Second Master has been very disciplined in recent years, and all his subordinates are doing legitimate business. Drugs should not be involved. It is just possible that those ignorant people under him did it."
Wang Huan said, "So, let him investigate carefully. If the people below really don't know the rules, they should be cleared out, and don't implicate him."
"yes."
"Okay, go tell him now. Explain the situation in detail and let him prepare. I don't understand Liu, so let him be more careful and guard against him."
"yes."
Wang Huan was not worried that the drug raid would affect him. He had made Wang Qing more restrained in the past few years. Although the people under him were still doing illegal things, they all had legitimate livelihoods.
If something really happened, he could push those younger brothers to take the blame. The drug crackdown did not have no effect on him at all, it all depended on whether Liu would give him the face.
Huang Taoxiao went to find Wang Huan first.
The top floor of the Dihao Club is the private forbidden area of the Wang brothers, where they entertain important people.
Wang Qing spends most of his time enjoying himself here, even in broad daylight, he always holds her in his arms.
Huang Tao came to his private room, where Wang Qing was drinking with two extremely beautiful women in his arms.
"Come on."
Wang Qing saw Huang Tao coming and laughed: "You came just in time. I have recently found a few top-notch women, and they are all prostitutes. You can pick one later."
“Ahem.”
Huang Tao coughed lightly and said, "Second Master, let them go first. I am here for something important."
"Go ahead, come back later."
After the people left, Huang Tao sat next to Wang Qing and whispered, "Second Master, there is a big event today."
Wang Qing poured Huang Tao a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Brother Huang, what big commotion can there be in the South China Sea? Tell me how big it is."
"Second Master, it's really big. Liu Xiaoxiao held a meeting this afternoon and proposed a city-wide drug eradication operation. The proposal has been passed, and there will be action soon."
Wang Qing's face changed: "What? Anti-drug operation? Does my brother know about it?"
"Yes, the mayor asked me to tell you."
"It should be alright, right? Liu 꿗꽮 won't touch us, right?"
"Second Master, I just don't understand what he is trying to do. In this meeting, he didn't even inform the mayor, but he directly proposed an anti-drug operation. Moreover, his attitude was extremely tough, saying that drugs must be eradicated. It seems that he is serious this time. The mayor wants us to be careful and see what his attitude is. In short, let the subordinates hold back for now."
“Shit.”
Wang Qing threw the wine glass on the table. "How dare Liu Xiaoxiao? If I hadn't been seeing my brother in these years, I would have killed him long ago. If he really doesn't let me live well, I will kill his whole family."
"Second Master, don't be impulsive. What I am most worried about now is whether Liu has discovered what we are doing. If this is the case, we must be on guard!"
"What do you mean? Do you think he knows we're making drugs?"
"It's hard to say. I'm not sure. Anyway, this matter cannot be known to anyone, including the mayor. I mean, let all the subordinates stop. Those who should hide should stay out of the spotlight for the time being. It's better to be safe than sorry."
"Brother Huang, it doesn't matter if we stop now. How much money will it cost? We make hundreds of millions of dollars in a month from drug manufacturing and trading. Besides, we still have a lot of orders on hand. How can we just stop it?"
"Money is important, but we need to take a long-term view. If this matter is really exposed, even if Liu doesn't touch us, the mayor won't let us continue. By then, the loss will be huge. I mean, we should wait until this storm is over before we take action."
Wang Qing thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll tell my men to stop and let them all go to the island to take shelter."
"Yes. Also, Liu 꿗꽮, please be patient during this drug raid. Don't go too far and try not to cause a rift."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
"Well, brothers, please bear with it. Everything will be fine after this."
"Um."
