The next day, Jian Jing went to the beauty salon to get a facial as she said.
Teacher Tony gave her an idea. The police could investigate the Fang Group thoroughly, but when it comes to grudges and hatred, they still have to find someone who knows the inside story and is willing to talk.
A beauty salon is a place where gossip is easier to talk about than a barber shop.
The beauty salon that Jian Jing entered was introduced by President Kang. All the customers were led by regular customers. The customers were either successful female presidents or wealthy wives and daughters, who were the most well-informed.
She chose a full body care package and chatted with the beautician while getting a massage.
After asking about her age and family, the topic naturally shifted to salary. Speaking of salary and financial management, of course, we can talk about stocks.
"The stock market has not been doing well recently." Jian Jing has never been a talkative person, but she is not arrogant and is gentle and friendly. "It's not easy for you to make money. Don't throw it away."
Making money is a topic that everyone cares about.
The beautician quickly said, "I didn't buy stocks, I only bought some funds and financial management."
"That's good. My manager said that the stock market has fallen sharply recently, especially the Fang Group. He changed my name to a pharmaceutical company. Medical beauty has been doing better and better in the past two years." She said with a smile.
The other beautician who was treating her hands was very surprised when she heard this: "Did the stock of the Fang Group fall?"
Jian Jing said: "Yes, the real estate has been getting worse in the past two years."
"But, when Mrs. Fang came here today, she seemed to be no different." This beautician is young, pretty and lively, "I can't tell at all."
"Then it shouldn't be a problem within the group." Jian Jing thought about it and pretended to be suddenly aware, "It must be because of a fire."
The beautician who was doing the massage asked: "What fire?"
"Didn't a building burnt down the day before yesterday? It seemed to be the Fang Group." Jian Jing blinked and thought, "The fire was deliberately set and the stock price fell. Maybe it was done by a competitor."
The beauticians had long been fed up with the gossip about the rich, so it was a bit fresh to hear about the business war.
"The competitor of Fang Group sent people to burn down their building?"
"Who did it?"
"So cruel."
"You're right, it seems a bit too cruel. They set fire to the building just because they disagreed with each other. It doesn't seem like they were discussing business." After the back massage, Jian Jing changed her posture and lay on her back. The lady's fingers gently pressed the acupuncture points on her head.
This was a very relaxing part, and she gradually talked more: "Either it was an enemy, or someone was offended."
The massage and beautician said: "I haven't heard that Fang Group has any enemies."
The hand care and beautician retorted: "Who said there are no enemies?" She listed several famous real estate companies.
The massage and beautician said, "Those companies are not in this city. If you count the famous developers in the country, they all emerged in different places. The ones in this city were defeated decades ago, and the new ones can't compare with the Fang family."
The hand care and beautician kept silent.
"An enemy is not necessarily a competitor." Jian Jing calmly led the topic, "The Fang family... is not a clean foundation."
The hand care and beautician lowered her voice, "Is it related to the X-road?"
"Twenty years ago, it's inevitable." Jian Jing pretended to think, "However, the investigation has been severe in the past two years, and it shouldn't have emerged at this time."
The massage and beautician interrupted, "Yes, we caught several of them before. Do you remember Miss So-and-so?" She said to her colleague, "She used to be a mistress, and then the boss went to jail and I never saw her again."
Here is a few gossips about Miss So-and-so.
Jian Jing listened patiently and joined the discussion. Then she saw the opportunity and changed the subject, saying firmly: "They are neither competitors nor gangsters. It should be a personal grudge."
At this time, both girls were a little excited.
As we all know, girls may not like to watch mystery shows, but they are not bad at reasoning. As long as they are interested, they can find out the route of action and the vest account clearly.
A full body treatment takes three or four hours, and it is a closed private room. Jian Jing used gossip as a guide and finally attracted two senior beauticians to play reasoning games with her.
"If he was so angry that he wanted to set fire to the building, he must have a big grudge with Fang." She raised her finger, "First, I will exclude the business grudge. Do you know why?"
Her tone was light, without the heaviness of solving a case, so the two girls were not alert and only felt interesting and fresh.
"Because business competition would not use such a rough method?" The lady who was taking care of the hands changed her position and started to do foot scrub.
Jian Jing smiled and said, "No, some business tactics are very rough. When a writer held a book signing event, his mortal enemy called a mourning team to cry, and it worked."
"Wow." The young lady pondered, "Why not?"
"Because there is no strong impact." Jian Jing said, "The Fang Group's key development project in the past two years is a tourism project in the suburbs. If there are safety issues, the minimum is an investigation, and the serious is a suspension of work. If I were a competitor, I would definitely choose this place."
The young lady nodded, "Yes, I heard Mrs. Fang talk about it several times, and she seemed very concerned."
"She also said that after it is completed, she will invite other wives to play." The massage beautician has been working for a long time and can already understand the subtext of the wives' words, "I think they want to make it a very high-end place."
Jian Jing smiled slightly and continued, "If it's not a business grudge, then it's a personal one."
"Chairman Fang is the most likely, followed by Young Master Fang and Miss Fang." Thanks to the escape from marriage incident, Jian Jing knew the internal situation of the Fang family very well. "Mrs. Fang, Miss Fang, and Young Master Fang all have their own businesses, and they are not closely related."
The massage beautician wiped her hands, took out a hyaluronic acid mask, and prepared to apply it to Jian Jing's face. Her hands moved swiftly, and her mind was also working fast: "Mrs. Fang opened an art gallery, Miss Fang... I remember that she opened a bar, and Young Master Fang ran a hotel, right?"
"It's a B&B." The beautician corrected, "Did you forget? Didn't he have a girlfriend who came to our place for a spa before? She was small and spoke softly, and was a good friend of Young Master Fang..."
She gave a look of "you know".
The colleague understood immediately, smiled knowingly, but didn't say anything more.
Jian Jing naturally wouldn't ask about anything too private, so she continued, "I heard that Miss Fang often does charity work and is a very nice person?"
As long as it does not involve personal privacy, it is difficult for beauticians to keep secrets: "Yes, she is a good person, very polite, unlike some ladies who want to treat us as slaves in the old society."
"She is divorced." Jian Jing recalled, "Once a woman is divorced, there will be fewer troubles. At least we can rule out the revenge of the mistress."
At this point, the two beauticians showed a subtle look.
"The ex-husband of Miss Fang Er..." They hinted vaguely, "No girlfriend."
Jian Jing was stunned for a moment and blinked: "Boyfriend?"
They smiled and didn't want to give people a chance to talk.
Jian Jing understood, it seemed to be a scandal of the Fang family.
"That's Fang Limin and his eldest son." Jian Jing remembered the style of Fang Da, steady and experienced, and calculating. Could it be that he had a grudge with someone?
The massage beautician said, "I don't think it was Mr. Fang."
"Why?"
"Mrs. Eldest Young Master came to visit half a month ago and said that after the couple finished the young master's wedding, they would go abroad for a half-month vacation. The eldest daughter is studying in Europe, so it
's a good opportunity for her to go and see her." The massage beautician explained, "If I want to take revenge on someone, it would be boring if they are not here." The nursing lady agreed, "If you want to slap someone in the face, then it must be Chairman Fang, right?"
Jian Jing smiled and made the final decision, "I think it was him, but I don't know what the hatred is that would lead to arson."
"This must be a deep hatred."
"Don't they often say in TV dramas that the hatred for killing one's father and stealing one's wife?"
"How could Chairman Fang kill someone, but steal his wife..."
"He must have more than one concubine."
"Mrs. Fang is already his third wife, and I don't know how many he has out there."
"The one before... yeah, that one who almost came face to face with Mrs. Fang was..."
"But she's so young."
"The Fang family is so rich, there's no need to steal someone's wife."
Jian Jing listened to their rambling discussion without interrupting - and couldn't interrupt, with a mask on her face. After fifteen minutes, when the silk mask paper was removed, she casually asked, "Will it be when the project is being developed... Demolition is the easiest to cause problems."
The topic went deep into this, and the beautician was a little bored.
After all, they had no interest in the case. It was okay to chat about gossip, but it was inevitable to be bored if they kept discussing it. But the customers were so excited that they couldn't pour cold water on them. After all, Jian Jing looked like someone who could afford to spend money, and keeping a VIP customer was crucial to their performance.
Jian Jing was very observant, so she naturally didn't miss their expressions. She immediately added a manicure and gave them a sweet treat: "Do you think something happened during the demolition?"
The manicure of this beauty salon was worth 2,888, which was another considerable income.
The beautician wanted to entangle her more and more. She recalled carefully and said hesitantly: "I haven't heard about demolition or anything like that. But there was a lady who kept saying that the Fang family was not honest. They once destroyed someone's family for a project."
Jian Jing slowly opened her half-closed eyes, with a gleam in her eyes: "Oh? Is there such a thing?"
The beautician didn't know much, but told her everything she heard.
The thing is, about seven or eight years ago, the Fang Group planned to develop a resort project and bought two pieces of land. But these two pieces of land were bought separately, with a small piece in the middle.
This small piece of land has been bought by a small developer named "Jianxin" and is going to be turned into a farmhouse.
The positioning conflict is still a problem, so of course the Fang family wants to deal with him.
The beautician naturally didn't know what methods they used, but according to the wife who knew the situation, not only did the company go bankrupt, the boss committed suicide by jumping off a building due to debt, and the family was also harassed and eventually disappeared.
Jian Jing searched and saw that from the time, this resort was the current resort.
Then she logged into the relevant website to search for companies and searched for homonyms of "jianxin". There were seven or eight companies in total, but only one company went bankrupt and was deregistered in 2013. Jianxin
Real Estate.
The legal representative was Pan Guo.
The suspect locked by Jifeng was Peng Wei, male, 36 years old, a survivor of the Qili Bridge accident.
That year, he and his family were preparing to travel, but they didn't expect to encounter a bridge collapse. They were buried with their car for more than two days before being rescued.
There were five people in his family, including his wife, children and parents. He was the only one who survived. All the others died. Over the years, he has been trying to find a way to visit the government and has sued the Fang Group many times, but to no avail.
Now, he is still alone, doing odd jobs everywhere, and his life is very hard.
Most importantly, although the Mall was burned down, the camera across the street was intact. He was caught on surveillance camera passing by the place before the fire.
Could it be him?
