Zhou Huairui initially thought it was something important, but when he heard it was just a small matter, he immediately agreed.
At the same time, he couldn't help but think that it was easier to make money abroad than in China.
Just as they reached a deal, a group of people suddenly rushed out and surrounded them.
Upon seeing these people, Zhou Huairui angrily shouted, "Which department are you from? Get out of my way!"
Zhou Peng jumped out, using the prestige of the master, and said, "Do you know who this is? The Second Master of the Zhou family! How dare you ruin the Second Master's plans? Do you even want to stay in this business?"
Huo Xiao coldly glanced at these scumbags and ordered, "Don't let a single one of them escape, arrest them all!"
The people around rushed forward and quickly subdued Zhou Huairui and his group.
Cao Bo and the others were still thinking of taking advantage of the chaos to escape, but little did they know that Huo Xiao had already spotted him and kicked him to the ground.
Zhou Huairui was used to being arrogant, and he never expected that someone would not even give face to the Zhou family. When he saw that they were serious, he panicked and took out a pistol to fight back, but Huo Xiao grabbed it and turned the pistol around. The bullet hit his leg and made a terrible scream.
After witnessing Huo Xiao's methods, Zhou Peng, the lackey, was so frightened that his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground. Before he could even be interrogated, he shouted, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll tell you everything! I'll tell you everything!"
Huo Xiao didn't even glance at the beast, and had him tied up and gagged.
When Zhou Peng saw that the other party ignored his voluntary confession, he was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder on the spot and was dragged away like a dead dog.
In less than fifteen minutes, both groups involved in the transaction were apprehended, and eight boxes of antique artifacts were seized. In addition, there were more than a dozen boxes seized from the black market, as well as the women and children who were rescued. Even if the Zhou family had extraordinary abilities, they could no longer suppress this matter.
When Huo Xiao finished his work and returned home, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
With that coward Zhou Peng around, the interrogation wasn't difficult, but the more they interrogated, the angrier they became.
The heinous and inhumane things the Zhou family did are too numerous to recount.
What Huo Xiao valued most was that this also involved Ye Weiwei's second brother, Ye Huaijin.
Coincidentally, the person Ye Huaijin wanted to capture after his last failed mission turned out to be Cao Bo, who was making a deal with Zhou Huairui this time.
Cao Bo is very cunning and skilled in plainclothes and counter-surveillance, and has many informants in the country.
At first, he was very stubborn, insisting that he was just doing business with Zhou Huairui, connecting antique dealers with other business owners and making a little money as a middleman.
However, he was unlucky enough to run into Huo Xiao.
No matter how tough he was, he couldn't hold out for long under Huo Xiao's torture methods and confessed within a few hours.
Because this matter involved confidential information and had far-reaching implications, Huo Xiao immediately told Old Master Qin about it, and Old Master Qin then reported it to the top leader.
The top leader was furious, and the entire Zhou family was detained and placed under investigation.
The news of the Zhou family's downfall spread throughout the entire compound immediately.
Upon hearing the news, Wang Lan immediately ran to the Qin family to tell Ye Weiwei.
"This truly shows that those who do many evil deeds will inevitably bring about their own downfall! I knew the Zhou family's petty success and arrogance were bound to lead to trouble! They've finally gotten their comeuppance! They deserve it!"
snort!
Let the Zhou family steal her son's job a few years ago!
After saying that, Wang Lan praised Huo Xiao a lot: "Weiwei, your Huo Xiao is really something!"
She gave a thumbs up.
"Like father, like son! No wonder Old Qin praises him to everyone he meets!"
Ye Weiwei smiled modestly; "He was just lucky."
Wang Lan didn't believe it was just luck. "This has nothing to do with luck! Ever since Old Qin found his son, he's looked much more energetic than before. He's going to be showing off for a long time now."
Before Ye Weiwei could speak, she added, "But I should show off too. If I had a good-for-nothing son, I'd be even more boastful than Old Qin!"
Thinking of the rumors she had heard that Huo Xiao had shot and crippled the second son of the Zhou family's eldest branch when he arrested someone, she felt a chill run down her spine.
Fortunately, she listened to advice and realized her mistake in time, preventing a breakdown in her relationship with the Qin family.
Old Qin's son is even more ruthless than Old Qin was when he was young!
Ye Weiwei didn't know what to say.
This person can talk for ages.
After seeing Wang Lan off, Liu Guilan couldn't help but say, "Third brother has quietly caused such a big incident. I heard that he even used a gun last night. I'm still scared when I think about it."
When the third brother was in the army, he always reported good news and never bad news. He wouldn't tell his family when he was injured. She would only find out later and worry for a while. Last night, the third brother went out to run errands and didn't come back all night. She couldn't sleep well all night and kept overthinking.
Ye Weiwei comforted him, "It's a waste of his talents for him to deal with those people. Don't worry. Besides, he has the old man's trusted confidants with him. If anything happens to anyone, he can't be the one to get into trouble."
Liu Guilan thought about it and agreed, "That's true, I was just worrying for no reason."
Ye Weiwei protested, "Don't talk about yourself like that. You only worry about him because you care about him so much. That's what happens when you're too concerned."
Liu Guilan was pleased and said with a smile, "That's how it is when people get old. I just hope you all stay safe and sound."
After entrusting the children to Liu Guilan and Aunt Sun, Ye Weiwei went out to the Zhou family's house.
The higher-ups have ordered the Zhou family to be brought under control. The Zhou family must be in chaos right now. This is a situation she created herself, so of course she has to go and see for herself.
Upon arriving at the Zhou family's gate, one sees a large crowd of onlookers gathered around the Zhou family's residence, pointing and whispering amongst themselves.
Ye Weiwei squeezed into the crowd and stood in the center.
The Zhou family members are now tied up and left in the yard, guarded by armed police.
Others searched various parts of the Zhou family's house, and soon, boxes of items were carried out of the house and brought to the courtyard, where they were opened one by one.
Every time a box was opened, the onlookers outside would gasp in surprise, followed by a barrage of curses.
Most of the boxes were filled with gold, some with jewelry and jade, all in good condition, as well as antiques and paintings.
Putting everything else aside, just these few boxes of gold alone are enough to give the Zhou family a run for their money.
It's clear that the black market is a very lucrative business, and the Zhou family has made a fortune over the years.
Considering that she acquired so many things in just one transaction on the black market in a small county like Qingshan County, one can only imagine how much more valuable she would have in Kyoto.
The wealth the Zhou family has accumulated over the years is staggering.
No wonder Zhou Qingwan dared to act so arrogantly!
They've got the confidence now.
Tsk tsk!
Unfortunately, they were unlucky enough to run into her in this lifetime!
