Chapter 128 Preparations on Both Sides
"Of course, your sincerity is very strong, and we will also show corresponding sincerity. I just don't know what Miss Lan needs?"
Lan Shiruo smiled, "We don't have any deep hatred with the Mao family, and District Chief Wei knows it, so we don't care what the Mao family does. As long as they don't take action, we won't waste our energy. This time, I came to N City, besides picking up Uncle He and Aunt He, with only one purpose, which is to kill the Ye family. However, after listening to what District Chief Wei said, I changed my mind. So, all I need is to know who is behind Ye Bingkun and the others. But it's not something that can be done in a day or two to fish for big fish. We are weak alone, so we still need District Chief Wei's help. This is a time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive job, and we don't want District Chief Wei to suffer any loss. Rong Deju loves his son like his life. We use his favor in exchange for long-term cooperation. District Chief Wei should not lose anything. What do you think?"
Wei Xiong smiled. They had protected Ding Yibing and Xia Xun before because of the favor they received from Rong Deju.
If Rong Deju and Mao Heyi cooperate, they will be in trouble, but if he cooperates with them, he can guarantee a win.
Since Lan Shiruo proposed it, there was no reason for them to refuse. "Happy cooperation." She extended her hand.
The young couple worked in perfect harmony. Ao Chengyi, who was as quiet as a chicken, spoke at the right moment, extending his hand in response, "It's a pleasure to work with you."
After the conversation, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and little Lebao was snoring in his sleep.
The four members of the Wei family stood up and left. There were too many things tonight that they needed to go back and digest, and they also had to make specific plans.
Before leaving, Lan Shiruo gave him another small gift, "I wish District Chief Wei a successful start. I also ask District Chief Wei to pay more attention to the people's livelihood no matter how busy he is."
Wei Xiong took the envelope with a suspicious look on his face. "The Mao family has always been responsible for the placement of personnel. We will handle it properly in the future. Thank you, Miss Lan, for reminding me. Please stay."
After seeing off the Wei family, Kong Fenglin also said goodbye and left. He also had a lot of insights and wanted to go back to digest them.
Lan Shiruo glanced at him and said, "If you don't mind, our team welcomes you."
Kong Fenglin was surprised. He and He Minyan had a past, but she didn't mind?
Lan Shiruo smiled, "I'm a very reasonable person, so please go away."
Kong Fenglin left with heavy steps, and the whole team packed up and went to sleep.
Lan Shiruo, Ao Chengyi and Yunshui Yao appeared at the Ye family villa.
No useful information was obtained from the other three except Ye Bingkun, who was a determined man. Yunshui Yao's attempt at using illusion failed, and the three returned disappointed.
The Wei family was very curious about what was in the envelope. They opened it immediately when they got home, and their faces became very excited.
There are ten photos, all with different dates, all of which are scenes of Ye Bingkun and Mao Heyi's wife fighting. There is no mosaic at all, and the content is very exciting.
Wei Yin smiled maliciously, "What a great gift, Dad. We can start with an internal split."
Wei Xiong agreed with a smile, "You old bastard, there are thousands of horses galloping above your head, let's see how he can still show off."
The Wei family mother and daughter felt extremely disgusted and went back to their room to wash their eyes after just one look.
The next day, the friends slept until almost noon and woke up one after another, completely unaware that the entire N city was in turmoil.
After Mao Heyi received the photo, his cloudy old eyes were filled with gloom. Without saying anything, he killed his wife of several decades with a single blow. He remained impassive and continued to cooperate with Ye Bingkun, already thinking of countless ways to torture him afterwards.
"Have all your people arrived?"
Ye Bingkun didn't notice anything unusual. "In two days, I will bring the latest research data. We can make arrangements in the next two days."
Mao Heyi puffed out his cheeks and said, "I'll take care of the arrangements. Has your adopted daughter figured out a way to deal with it?"
Ye Bingkun smiled cruelly, "She can't bear to part with the little bastard, right? As long as we get the little bastard, we can get the things and we can easily deal with him. It's just right, the little bastard can also be used for training."
Mao Heyi laughed along, but he was actually laughing at Ye Bingkun for being so reckless. Did he really think those people were made of clay? Let's fight, dog bite dog is the best. No one who dares to plot against Mao Heyi and make trouble for the Mao family can live in peace. "Then I'll wait for your good news. Just tell me if you need anything."
Ye Bingkun looked down on Mao Heyi, saying he was old and ugly, and couldn't even keep a woman. What ability did he have? "Okay."
On the other side, the Wei family father and son were making arrangements and reached an agreement with Rong Deju.
Rong Deju is a gangster with extensive connections and resources, allowing him to leverage special channels to support the Wei family. The Wei family trades on resources. City N is a major energy hub, with abundant gas and oil reserves, all of which they control. The Mao family is envious, yet helpless. The original marriage alliance with the Rong family was conspired to exploit these resources. Rong Deju aided the Mao family in seizing power in City N, and the Mao family provided Rong Deju with energy resources.
In a blink of an eye, the transaction object has changed, but the result is still the same. Therefore, there are only eternal interests in this world.
"How are the arrangements going?" Wei Xiong asked.
"It's almost done. Mao Heyi secretly has people occupying important positions. When the time is right, they will take them down in one fell swoop. I told our people not to act rashly and to wait and see. Rong Deju's things will be delivered in about two days, and the support behind Ye Bingkun will be around the same time. Lan Shiruo also gave us a lot of good things. I'm having people study them, and they should come in handy when the time comes. So, success or failure will be decided in two days. However, Ye Bingkun should take action against Lan Shiruo and her group. Do we need help?"
Wei Xiong shook his head. "We can think of it, but how could those cunning people not think of it? Since they didn't say anything, they can handle it themselves. We don't need to worry about it. Ye Bingkun is looking for death, let him go. Keep a close eye on the people behind Mao and Yihe."
"I know, Dad."
In the past two days, even those who stayed in the slums all day could feel the tension and depression in City N. There was always a sense of calm before the storm.
The cold wind was blowing, hurting people's faces. Many people who had fled did not have thick clothes or quilts, so they could only hug each other to keep warm.
It was so cold that I dared not sleep at night for fear of not being able to wake up.
Most of the people around Kong Fenglin had already left, leaving only the three brothers who had always been together. Because of He Minyan, they had a lot of resentment towards Kong Fenglin. Now that Kong Fenglin and He Minyan had broken up, they were naturally happy, "Brother, now is a good time to choose a side. If you choose the right side, you can soar to the sky, but if you choose the wrong side, you will be doomed. But isn't life just about blocking? Let's block it once, who will you choose, brother?"
Kong Fenglin looked at the brothers who had been through life and death with him. The excitement and impatience on their faces made him feel a little ferocious. Inexplicably, he thought of the last words Lan Shiruo left for him when he first met her: Be careful of the people around you.
Taking sides? Kong Fenglin didn't want to. If it weren't for Lan Shiruo, he would have chosen to start his own business. He was fed up with living under someone else's roof and being oppressed by the powerful. He wanted to be the boss and trample under his feet all those who had bullied him.
With Lan Shiruo, he felt that living happily with family and friends, without power, struggle, or bloody betrayal, was the kind of life that people should live.
However, he also knew that his three brothers had ambition but lacked courage. They would never dare to strike out on their own, especially in today's world. Asking them to join Lan Shiruo's team would make them feel wronged because they were overconfident. He Minyan's incident had already accumulated resentment, and adding another person might breed hatred. He didn't dare to do anything on the surface. But when the time was right, would they attack him?
Be careful of people around you?
Kong Fenglin didn't want to think too much about it, and even more so, he didn't want to think badly of his brother who had been through life and death with him.
If someone else said this to him at any other time, he would definitely think it was an attempt to sow discord.
With a slight sigh, he said, "I'm not going to stand in line. I want to leave here."
