At this moment, Wang Honghui felt immense regret.
He never imagined that the newly appointed Imperial Inspector of the Eight Prefectures would actually be the young marshal of Feng Prefecture!
If he had known this would be the case, he would never have dared to go against Lin Yu even if he were beaten to death!
It's all my fault for being too greedy, and also because Li Zhixi gave me too much money. Once a person becomes greedy, their greed knows no bounds, and their bottom line will keep dropping.
He had long since gone down a path of no return. This outcome was ultimately inevitable.
It can be said that Wang Honghui was not harmed by Li Zhixi, nor by Lin Yu, but by his own greed.
That night, no one knew that Wang Honghui had been brought down.
Yandu Prefecture has not yet made any public announcement.
Because there is still some finishing work to be done, Wang's house needs to be thoroughly searched, and his followers also need to be investigated.
Bao Zheng personally led a team to search and confiscate the Wang family's property.
At daybreak, Bao Zheng personally took a hammer and smashed the electric heated kang bed that Wang Honghui usually slept on.
Everyone was stunned.
There's a huge amount of money down there!
A rough estimate would be at least several hundred million!
Hundreds of millions in cash, my goodness! An ordinary person working from the Ice Age to now probably couldn't earn that much money.
During the on-site inventory, several printing presses were found to have burned out!
Not to mention, there are also some antique gold and silver items, as well as some hidden accounts overseas!
Even Bao Zheng was shocked!
In all his years as prefect, this was the first time he had ever seen a fish of this size!
If this case were to be exposed, it would be an absolutely sensational case.
At dawn, the inventory was finally completed, and Bao Zheng immediately reported the situation to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu sneered, "Wang Honghui's associates will all be implicated and the entire financial system will be cleansed. In addition, it will be announced that there was insider trading in Shan Chun Financial's stock price yesterday. The Securities and Futures Commission will adjust the stock price in accordance with the law and drive it back to its lowest point!"
"Yes!" Bao Zheng immediately accepted the order and went to make arrangements.
...
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Guanzhong Haotai Hotel.
A victory celebration banquet is being held in the magnificent hall.
The bigwigs of the entire Guanzhong financial industry gathered together.
The main character of the banquet was none other than Gongzi Xi, who had just won a great victory in the stock market and successfully acquired control of Shan Chun!
At the banquet, Li Zhixi walked confidently onto the stage, took the microphone, looked around, and said proudly.
"This is just a small victory, merely my first test in Guanzhong! In the future, Hongluan Venture Capital will develop better and better, and I, Li Zhixi, will definitely lead everyone to glory! I'm making this promise today: within three years, Hongluan Venture Capital will take over the entire northern financial market!"
Splash!
A burst of enthusiastic applause immediately erupted from below. Media cameras flashed incessantly. A group of wealthy young ladies and devoted fans below kept throwing themselves at Mr. Xi.
Just then, Li Zhixi's assistant rushed over and whispered a few words in his ear.
"What?" Li Zhixi's expression changed. He didn't have time to say anything and hurriedly walked off the stage and ran towards the backstage.
At this moment, the shareholders of Hongluan Venture Capital gathered together, chattering incessantly, all with extremely solemn expressions.
"Young Master Xi, you've arrived?"
"Take a look! News just broke from Yandu Prefecture: Wang Honghui of the Securities and Exchange Commission has committed serious violations and has been dismissed and is under investigation!"
"We were found to have engaged in insider trading, and the Securities and Futures Commission adjusted Shan Chun's stock price back to its lowest point yesterday, at NT$5.90!"
"The market has already opened, and Shan Chun's stock price has plummeted all day. It's down to 5.4 yuan now. We've lost a lot of money. Let's sell quickly!"
Everyone tried to persuade him.
"No!"
Li Zhixi looked unwilling. This victory was hard-won, and he was not willing to spit out what he had swallowed.
At the same time, he was also puzzled. Wang Honghui was fine yesterday, so why was he suddenly investigated?
What exactly is going on?
Even if a big shot like this is about to get into trouble, shouldn't they at least give some warning beforehand?
Who did this old man offend?
"Young Master Xi, we can't wait any longer!" a shareholder said anxiously. "Look, it's dropped another point, it'll hit the daily limit down soon!"
Li Zhixi was still unwilling to give up, shaking his head and saying, "What's there to be afraid of? Isn't my Hongluan Chamber of Commerce here to protect us? I'll transfer 10 billion from the Chamber right now! I don't believe we can't protect it!"
Li Zhixi hurriedly contacted the Yandu headquarters, called several key shareholders and directors, and through persistent persuasion, managed to secure 10 billion yuan. This was to support Shan Chun's stock price!
The stock price finally stabilized and even rebounded slightly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu was also closely monitoring the changes in the stock market.
Seeing that Shan Chun's stock price had stabilized, he knew that it must be because the Hong Luan Chamber of Commerce had intervened to support the stock!
"What goes around comes around! Li Zhixi, you bastard, you were the one who used underhanded tactics to bully my wife first, you brought this on yourself!"
Lin Yu's lips curled slightly, and he immediately took out his phone and called the person in charge of Douyin's operations.
"Now, push all negative news about the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce, especially the unfair competition by Hongluan Venture Capital, and make it trend on social media!" Lin Yu gave this order directly.
The person in charge of Douyin knew that this was the boss's boss's boss, so he dared not neglect him and immediately began to do as instructed.
In a short while, all the negative news related to the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce surged to the top of the trending searches.
As the saying goes, "A large forest has all kinds of birds." The Hongluan Chamber of Commerce is no exception; some of its directors and wealthy heirs inevitably have their share of negative news and scandals. Some of the negative news that had been suppressed before has now been brought up again.
