Chapter 166: Hit it off and become accomplices
"Qing Huang, where did you go last night? Why didn't you come back all night?"
Huo Lingfeng asked worriedly.
Huo Qinghuang smiled slightly, "I went to deal with some things, and now they are resolved."
Huo Lingfeng looked at Huo Qinghuang and vaguely guessed something in his heart, but he didn't ask any more questions.
He knew that Huo Qinghuang had her own way of doing things, and her strength was unfathomable, and there were many things he could not interfere with at all.
"I'm glad you're okay. But if you go out again, you'd better tell your family so that they don't worry."
Huo Lingfeng said helplessly.
Huo Qinghuang nodded without comment, thinking, if the Huo family knew that she stayed up late at night to destroy the Black Tiger Gang, they would probably be more worried, right?
But she didn't intend to say it.
The destruction of the Black Tiger Gang would definitely cause an uproar in the imperial capital, and some people would even guess that it was the Huo family who did it.
But, without any evidence, who would dare to cause trouble for the Huo family?
It will only make him more wary of the Huo family.
Sometimes, the unknown is also a kind of deterrence.
For the next two days, Huo Qinghuang announced that he wanted to go into seclusion. He locked himself in the room and ordered no one to disturb him.
In two days, she used high-quality ice jade as the carrier and made a total of thirty amulets.
Excluding the ten coins that Director Long wanted, the remaining twenty coins, together with the few remaining coins, were kept for emergency use.
It’s not that she was planning to give it to anyone out of kindness, but she was thinking that there were so many branches of Bureau 749 in various places. If Director Long remembered them in the future and came to her to buy the amulet, she wouldn’t have to make it again.
Two days passed quickly. During this time, Huo Qinghuang had not come out of seclusion and had no idea that the demise of the Black Tiger Gang had already spread widely in the imperial capital, causing a huge sensation.
The Black Tiger Gang was destroyed, and all the forces in the entire imperial capital were in a state of panic.
What is particularly well known is that behind the Black Tiger Gang stands the gigantic Song family.
Even though the Song family seems to be crumbling now, it is not comparable to ordinary forces.
It seems that no one else is willing to risk offending the Song family and cutting off its arms at this time, except for those families with equal strength to them.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were on the Huo family.
Who asked these two families to have some dirty deeds two days ago, and then Song Yuanfeng died, and then the Black Tiger Gang was destroyed. It is hard not to have a series of associations.
However, just as Huo Qinghuang had expected, although everyone was speculating, they could not produce any evidence to incriminate the Huo family.
Apart from the bodies of the Black Tiger Gang members, there were no footprints or fingerprints of outsiders at the scene.
Some people couldn't help but think it was weird. In the end, even the 749th Bureau was dispatched, but they couldn't find any clues.
The higher-ups were furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. The police chief in charge of the case in the imperial capital was almost bald from pulling out his hair. He had no choice but to expand the scope of the investigation and secretly launch a severe crackdown.
For a time, all kinds of criminal incidents in the entire imperial capital dropped significantly, and even the second generation of criminals stayed at home and dared not go out.
The air above the imperial capital has become much clearer.
This matter was too weird. All the major families strictly ordered their children not to go out and cause trouble, and at the same time, they were even more wary of the Huo family.
Of course, this is a later story.
Now, the three-day period is up. Huo Qinghuang had just come out of seclusion when she received a call from Long Weihua, asking about the amulet. He also said that Xiaobai's matter had been settled and she could take it to report to Bureau 749 at any time.
Soon, Huo Qinghuang brought Xiaobai and, accompanied by Huo Yuheng, came to Bureau 749.
Long Weihua received her personally, and his attitude was warm and a little weird.
Looking at the graceful girl in front of him, Long Weihua was shocked.
Naturally, he had some speculations about the demise of the Black Tiger Gang.
After all, when Huo Qinghuang had a conflict with the Black Tiger Gang, it was he who went to rescue them, so naturally he knew more than others.
Although no clues could be found from any aspect, Long Weihua intuitively felt that this matter was related to Huo Qinghuang.
But what does this have to do with him?
The Black Tiger Gang has done all kinds of bad things over the years, including pornography, gambling, and drugs, and forcing women of good families into prostitution. If it weren't for the protection of the Song family, they would have been wiped out long ago.
Now that it has been destroyed, many ordinary people at the bottom of society are applauding.
It was also because Long Weihua turned a blind eye and did not take action himself, otherwise, with Yu Niang's methods, she would definitely not escape his perception.
Huo Qinghuang also knew this and was very satisfied with Long Weihua's approach. His attitude was much better than last time.
The two sides made eye contact and it can be said that they knew each other well, hit it off immediately, and worked together in cahoots. Phew, it was a pleasant cooperation.
"Xiaobai's formalities have been completed. From now on, he will be an official member of Bureau 749. I wonder if Miss Huo has finished making the amulet?"
Long Weihua said with a smile, but his eyes were glued to Huo Qinghuang's backpack, wishing he could snatch it away.
"Thank you, Director Long. The amulet has naturally been made."
Huo Qinghuang nodded and raised her eyebrows, saying, "To thank Director Long for his trust in our old man, I used high-grade ice jade as the carrier for this batch of amulets. How about it, does Director Long like it?"
"High ice grade? As for the price..."
Director Long was delighted at first, but then he hesitated.
As soon as these words came out, Huo Yuheng's eyelids twitched.
This old fox!
He has been kept in the 749th Bureau these days and has been very busy all the time, just to expand the purse of the 749th Bureau.
If Qing Huang changed his mind and raised the price now, he believed that this old fox would exploit him even more.
"Hey, Qing Huang, Director Long is working for the country and the people, and our Huo family can't fall behind, right? So, how about we keep the original price?"
Huo Yuheng coughed lightly and couldn't help but speak.
He came to Bureau 749 just to be a figurehead, but he didn't want to work hard until his death.
Hearing this, Huo Qinghuang looked at him in surprise.
She has been in seclusion these two days and has no idea what kind of life Huo Yuheng is leading in Bureau 749.
Of course, Huo Yuheng didn't have the courage to tell her that he was being used as a slave in Bureau 749.
Bureau 749 is unknown to outsiders, and unlike those public companies that can do business openly, sometimes he almost goes bald from thinking hard about a money-making plan.
But even if Huo Qinghuang knew, she wouldn't care.
For her, she has already handed over the ladder. How the Huo family will develop in the end depends entirely on the Huo family’s own choices and has little to do with her.
Money doesn't matter to her.
"Hahaha, Deputy Minister Huo is very conscious. That's right. It's all for the country and for the people to live and work in peace and contentment. I'm just asking shamelessly, I wonder if Miss Huo is willing to listen to your father's advice and calculate according to the original price?"
Long Weihua laughed loudly and looked at Huo Yuheng with great satisfaction.
The head of the Huo family is so sensible and much more useful than Minister Li. It seems that there is a chance for him to move up.
