I am a super cop

Chapter 1629 Extortion
"secret?"

When everyone heard the words, they suddenly became interested.

Human curiosity often starts from prying into the privacy of others.

Zhang Xuchang was very beautiful back then, but his desires also swelled. Everyone has always had very different ideas about why Zhang Xuchang suddenly chose to retreat bravely.

But Zhao Liwen obviously knew all this.

But now, Zhao Liwen is willing to tell the truth about what happened back then, which is obviously a good choice.

At least it can let Gu Chen figure out how much grievance Zhang Xuchang had with Zhao Liwen back then.

Zhao Liwen sighed faintly, and also took the initiative to explain: "After Zhang Xuchang became a benchmark in the industry, he started all kinds of extravagance and lust, and he no longer cared about his own brand management. He believed that his success was a manifestation of his ability."

"But he doesn't actually know that a large part of the reason why he can become an industry benchmark is luck."

"Because everyone's concept of the brand of homestay was still quite vague, or even undefined."

"As for the word B&B, it's called 'Minshuku'. Some people say it originated from the B&B in Japan."

"It refers to the use of local residential and other related idle resources, the operating guest room does not exceed 4 floors, the building area does not exceed 800 square meters, and the owner participates in the reception, providing tourists with small accommodation facilities to experience local nature, culture, production and lifestyle."

"Of course, this definition also fully explains the characteristics of homestays that are different from hotels or restaurants."

"After all, B&Bs are different from traditional hotels. They may not have high-end and luxurious facilities, but they allow people to experience the local customs, feel the enthusiasm and service of the B&B owner, and experience a life different from the past."

"As for Zhang Xuchang, he came to the scenic spot earlier, and the scenic spot was still undeveloped, so he took the lead."

After a pause, Zhao Liwen took another sip of water, and continued: "He rented many unused rooms and lots of open space from local people, combining local culture, natural landscape, ecology, environmental resources, and agricultural, forestry, fishery and animal husbandry production sites."

"Provide personalized accommodation for travelers who go out for picnics or travel far away. This kind of first-come, first-served allows him to take advantage of the geographical advantage."

"Combined with the local policy guidance in the past few years, it is also preparing to build a tourist resort, so his 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand was an instant hit."

"As for other colleagues, it is because they have no resources and can only drink soup. I belong to this type of homestay owner."

"Then why did he transfer 'Guiyuan Tianju' to you?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Zhao Liwen grinned: "It's not for a woman. He became a celebrity in the industry because of his popularity back then. Many people worshiped him in various ways, so much so that Zhang Xuchang was like a star wherever he went in those years."

"Many women, knowing his age, still choose to throw themselves into their arms, so that one day, he got mixed up with the daughter-in-law of the local village chief."

"But it just so happened that day, I went out to inspect a new site, and I happened to meet them there."

"It turned out that Zhang Xuchang was also considering the idea of ​​opening a branch during that time. Like me, he went to a foreign place, but he was in a hotel in a foreign place. I ran into them."

"That's embarrassing." Thinking of this, several sets of pictures suddenly appeared in Lu Weiwei's mind.

Officer Wang quickly asked her, "So you used this as a threat?"

"That's right." Zhao Liwen didn't hide anything, and directly admitted: "Originally, my homestay was open opposite him, maybe because I saw his business was full every day, but my homestay was deserted, and I felt a little unbalanced psychologically. "

"And what annoys me the most is that Zhang Xuchang often sneers at me, mocking me for closing the door as soon as possible, so don't waste time with him here."

"Of course I don't accept it, so I have been looking for a new location to open a branch. I also wanted to find a place with beautiful scenery and great development prospects to take the lead, so I met Zhang Xuchang and that woman there."

Yuan Shasha was thoughtful and asked her, "Then how did you do it?"

Zhao Liwen smiled coldly, and replied: "I didn't expose myself at the beginning, but kept observing in secret, waiting for an opportunity to film the two of them. After I had enough material, I came up with a bold idea."

"That is to use this matter to negotiate with him and let him transfer the matter of returning to Yuantian."

"Because compared to the mature business model of Guiyuan Tianju, I think it is more reliable to expand the territory and manage the uncertain future."

"So you used these photos and videos to blackmail Zhang Xuchang?" Gu Chen asked her.

Zhao Liwen was silent for a few seconds, but did not reply right away.

But still nodded silently, expressing approval.

Just when Gu Chen was about to speak again, Zhao Liwen suddenly raised her head and said, "I made these photos, sealed them in an envelope, and delivered them to his Guiyuan Tianju in person."

"Since then, Zhang Xuchang has been in a state of panic. He knows that once these photos are leaked, his return to the garden will be over in an instant."

"And I want to report him, because he has gained too many identities by using the Guiyuan Tianju brand."

"If these photos of mine are distributed, he may have to finish his game and get out of the local area completely, and he may even be murdered from behind."

"So after weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Xuchang asked me what I want? I said, I want his back home."

"You're extorting." Lu Weiwei said.

Zhao Liwen nodded unabashedly: "That's right, but please listen to me."

Gu Chen glanced at Lu Weiwei, motioning for Lu Weiwei to listen quietly.

The scene was quiet again.

At the same time, the waiter also opened the door of the private room, and two waiters pushed the dining car, and brought all the dishes Zhao Liwen had ordered to the table.

The waitress at the front desk approached Zhao Liwen and whispered, "Mr. Zhao, all the dishes you ordered have been served."

"Got it, let's go down." Zhao Liwen said listlessly.

The waitress at the front desk nodded silently. After the two waiters had served the dishes, she left sensiblely and closed the door gently.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Zhao Liwen smiled wryly, took the initiative to pick up the corkscrew, opened a bottle of red wine, and asked, "Do you want to drink together?"

"No, we don't drink." Gu Chen said.

Zhao Liwen nodded silently, a little embarrassed.

At least I think it is undoubtedly funny that the police want to drink with the police when they are asking me about things.

But now it's meal time, and the police didn't mean to stop her from eating, so Zhao Liwen poured herself a glass of red wine, held up the goblet and said:

"Today, I am treating you to a simple meal from the perspective of friends, so you don't have to be cautious."

Gu Chen glanced at Officer Wang.

Police officer Wang smiled seriously: "We'll ask about the situation before we talk about the meal. If Ms. Zhao Liwen is hungry, you can eat first."

"Thank you." Knowing that the police had a prejudice against her, Zhao Liwen didn't force her, she directly picked up the goblet, and took a sip of the red wine.

Seeing that no one touched the dishes on the table, Zhao Liwen simply picked up the chopsticks, randomly picked up the dishes in front of her, and put them into her mouth to chew slowly.

Lu Weiwei couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, but continued to ask: "Then what happened next?"

"Afterwards, things became much simpler. I said let him leave the local area and go as far away as possible. If you want, you can transfer Guiyuan Tianju to me."

"And Zhang Xuchang is a smart man. He knows that my focus is on the back, and I want him to return to the garden."

"Although I don't want to give up, saving my life is the most important thing. If I stay in the local area, once I let the village chief know, I may die a miserable death."

"So in the end, he still reluctantly gave up, and suddenly chose to transfer Guiyuantianju to me, including all trademark registrations."

"Besides, I also got a very low price, and Zhang Xuchang took the money and left. With hatred, he no longer operated and returned to Yuantianju."

"After I took over, I started to make use of Guiyuan Tianju's own conditions and various operational plans to gradually build the Guiyuan Tianju brand into one of the best homestay brands in China."

"And in these years, I have incorporated the experience I have summed up over the years in the industry. The concept of homestay villages has been incorporated, and many internationally popular business concepts have been added. Two forms of self-operated and franchised national chain brands have been quickly formed."

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Liwen also said helplessly: "But at this time, Zhang Xuchang took the initiative to find me and said that he wanted to invest in the project, talking about what happened back then. He hurt him too much, so he should be compensated."

"And after I obtained the ownership of Guiyuan Tianju, I also cleared all the photos and videos, which did not pose a threat to him, so he decided to buy some shares or projects of Guiyuan Tianju at a low price."

"After all, this brand is his lifelong regret, and it represents that he has gone from the peak to the trough, and he can't pass this threshold."

"So you guys were discussing this matter in the bamboo forest yesterday?" Gu Chen said.

"Bamboo forest?" Hearing Gu Chen's remarks, Zhao Liwen stared blankly, and hurriedly asked, "What... what bamboo forest?"

"It's the bamboo forest where you return to Yuantian. Yesterday we saw Mr. Zhang Xuchang arguing with someone in the depths of the bamboo forest. Isn't that person you?"

"Yes...isn't it?" Zhao Liwen choked up a bit, but still nodded and admitted.

Gu Chen asked again: "So, after the quarrel yesterday, how did you separate? Did you reach any consensus?"

"Without a consensus, it is impossible for me to let him take a stake in the current 'Return to Garden Tianju' project. If there is no absolute control over the 'Return to Garden Tianju' project, the 'Guiyuan Tianju' project will not be as large as it is today. "

"But he invited me to go to Hongyuanli community today, meet him, and talk about this matter."

"Hongyuanli Community?" Hearing Zhao Liwen's remarks, Police Officer Wang stared blankly, and hurriedly asked: "So, you have been to Hongyuanli Community, right?"

"That's right." Zhao Liwen nodded and admitted, but quickly retorted: "But I drove to the vicinity of Hongyuanli, and then went back the same way, because I made up my mind, and I won't entangle him with this matter anymore."

"'Guiyuan Tianju' B&B village brand, it is mine, and no one can take it away from me."

"So I thought about it for a while in the car, but in the end I didn't go to Hongyuanli Community, and drove back the same way."

"You didn't go up?" Gu Chen hesitated when he heard this.

But Zhao Liwen said resolutely: "Of course I haven't been there, I never went to the place Zhang Xuchang said."

"Because I know that there must be nothing good for him to call me here, and he specifically told me that I can only come here alone. If he wants to plot against me, wouldn't I be very dangerous?"

Taking a deep breath and trying to calm herself down, Zhao Liwen said again: "So, I sat in the car for a long time and thought about it for a long time. I feel that I shouldn't go there alone. I feel that this is a grand banquet."

"So, without saying hello, I just walked back the same way, that's it."

Listening to Zhao Liwen's narration, although Gu Chen knew what kind of grievances and grievances there were between Zhao Liwen and Zhang Xuchang back then, but Zhao Liwen had also been to Hongyuanli Community, but she didn't go there.

In this regard, Gu Chen couldn't confirm it, so he asked Zhao Liwen, "What time did you go to Hongyuanli Community?"

"It was around 1:[-] noon. I didn't pay attention to the specifics. Anyway, I parked near the Hongyuanli community and sat in the car thinking for a long time, but in the end I still didn't go in." Zhao Liwen said.

Gu Chen recorded these, and then asked: "Did you park the car outside Hongyuanli or somewhere?"

"Periphery."

"Where is the location?" Gu Chen asked again.

"On the side of the road, it may be near Hongyuanli, but I didn't pay attention to it." Zhao Liwen said.

Gu Chen nodded silently, and continued to record these situations.

But at the same time, it is also very clear that at around 1:30 noon yesterday, the entire Hongyuanli community and the surrounding roads were all in a state of power outage.

Zhao Liwen entered the Hongyuanli community at this time, and it was obvious that the surveillance could not catch it.

She said she didn't go up, who knows?Even the two old security guards who played chess didn't care about the outside affairs at all.

Whether Zhao Liwen went upstairs, almost only she knew.

But at present, Gu Chen can't come up with conclusive evidence, so he can only reluctantly believe it for the time being, but still remains skeptical.

After recording everything, Gu Chen asked her, "Where have you been in the past few days?"

"Apart from attending my cousin's wedding and helping to purchase supplies during the busy schedule, I basically stayed at home during the rest of the time, or I didn't go anywhere in my homestay village."

"Okay." Gu Chen recorded all this, looked up at her and said, "I hope that everything you said is true. If there is any suspicion of deception, you know the consequences."

"Hehe." Feeling that Gu Chen was threatening her, Zhao Liwen just grinned, but didn't care: "Gu Chen, although we have met once, I can tell that you are very serious about your work."

"But one thing I want to tell you, I'm just an ordinary woman, I just want to live a good life, I don't want to cause trouble."

"If Zhang Xuchang hadn't found me recently, I might have forgotten about it, really."

"I just want to live an ordinary life, so please don't bother me anymore? I just want to work hard."

"As long as you don't break the law, no one will trouble you." Gu Chen turned the pen with his right hand and continued to ask: "By the way, do you know that apart from conflicts with you, who else has Zhang Xuchang had trouble with recently?"

"Hehe." Zhao Liwen laughed dryly, shook her head and denied: "I don't care about other people's affairs, you don't need to ask me about it, I don't know."

"Thank you." Knowing that it was difficult to ask other questions from Zhao Liwen, Gu Chen packed up his belongings, stood up and said:

"Thank you for your cooperation. If you need to respond to us in other situations, please call this number."

Gu Chen handed out the three sets of office business cards in his hand.

Zhao Liwen stood up, caught it with both hands, and replied politely: "I will."

Gu Chen and everyone nodded silently, and everyone turned around to leave.

Zhao Liwen followed behind, also persuading her to say, "Aren't you going to leave after dinner?"

However, this sentence did not save any policemen.

Zhao Liwen could only silently watch the backs of Gu Chen and the others slowly leave, and then walked into the private room alone in desolation.

All of a sudden, Zhao Liwen lifted the table and turned it outward as if in a daze.

In an instant, the red wine and dishes on the table shattered to the ground, and all kinds of glass shattered one after another.

The waitresses who heard the movement were frightened and hurried over.

When they saw Zhao Liwen walking out of the private room with a ashen face, the two waitresses were so frightened that they didn't dare to make a sound, they could only watch the boss's downcast back leave dryly.

……

……

On the other side, when Gu Chen brought his team and bought some biscuits on the side of the road to satisfy their hunger, He Junchao called Gu Chen's phone.

Standing by the side of the road, Gu Chen put down the biscuits, immediately picked up the phone and asked, "Senior Brother He, what's the matter?"

"Gu Chen, you asked me to track down Zhao Liwen's activities in recent days, and I have made some new discoveries."

"Tell me." While talking, Gu Chen leaned against the side of the car and took a bite of a big sesame seed cake.

He Junchao replied seriously: "This Zhao Liwen's activities are relatively fixed. It's nothing more than her home, and she is returning to Yuantian Residential Village."

"But I found that the only irregular whereabouts were the days when she participated in the wedding."

"It was her cousin's wedding, and she was in charge of all matters." Gu Chen reminded, and then took another bite of sesame seed cakes.

He Junchao also agreed: "I know this, because judging from her whereabouts these days, she has been making various purchases of wedding supplies."

"Most of the time, I was either communicating with the wedding company or purchasing goods in the market, but there was a period of monitoring, which I found very suspicious."

"Tell me." Gu Chen continued to gnaw on the biscuits and asked him.

He Junchao sighed, a little puzzled and said: "On the night before the wedding, she parked the car in an empty parking lot outside a market, that kind of place is relatively remote."

"I just don't understand. At night, she doesn't park the car in a crowded place. What is she doing there? And there is a blind spot for monitoring, and there are long-term stays."

After a pause, He Junchao said again: "So I don't understand, what is she doing these days? Shopping for wedding supplies? It doesn't look like that either."
