Siheyuan: Start with a big car

"If a child is not well educated, it is the fault of his father. When he is young, he will steal needles, but when he grows up, he will steal gold."

Li Weidong actually has a good impression of Zhong's father. In the original novel, Li Yuanchao relied on his father's generation to cause a lot of trouble, but Zhong's father never violated his principles to help Zhong Yuemin.

After thinking for a while, Li Weidong decided to give Zhong's father a heads-up: "Mr. Zhong, the reason why Zhong Yuemin is acting so recklessly now is probably related to your daily doting.

He always thinks you have his back, so he does whatever he wants. If you really want him to change his ways, you should stop protecting him."

After hearing what Li Weidong said, Mr. Zhong was enlightened. He was shocked and realized that he had indeed spoiled Zhong Yuemin too much.

He nodded slightly and said firmly:

you're right.

I will not interfere this time and let him take responsibility for his actions."

Afterwards, accompanied by Director Yang, Zhong's father met Zhong Yuemin.

Zhong Yuemin was detained in a temporary detention place. When he saw his father coming, he thought he would be released soon and an arrogant look immediately appeared on his face.

"Dad, you're finally here. Get me out of here quickly. I'm going to deal with those who dare to catch me!" Zhong Yuemin shouted loudly.

However, when he heard Zhong's father coldly say, "I won't take care of you this time, you will bear the consequences yourself," he immediately flew into a rage.

He lost his mind and cursed: "You old man, if you don't take care of me, who will? Are you just going to watch me being locked up?"

When Mr. Zhong heard his son's rebellious words, he was so angry that he trembled all over. With his eyes wide open, he pointed at Zhong Yuemin and shouted angrily: "You rebellious son! You did such a bastard thing and you still don't repent. You even dare to scold me!
Today I finally understood how right Xiao Li was. I was too indulgent towards you, which is why you became so lawless! "

Zhong Yuemin was frightened by his father's sudden rebuke. He stood there in a daze. The arrogance on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a trace of fear and confusion.

After Zhong's father left, Li Weidong walked into the room where Zhong Yuemin was imprisoned with a stern expression.

Zhong Yuemin was still holding out hope, but when he saw that it was Li Weidong who came in, the last glimmer of hope in his heart was shattered, and he slumped in his chair like a deflated ball.

Li Weidong pulled a chair over and sat opposite Zhong Yuemin. He stared at him with a sharp gaze and said coldly, "No one can save you now. Tell me the truth. What happened?"

Zhong Yuemin knew that the situation was hopeless. After hesitating for a moment, he could only tell Li Yuanchao everything about how he was asked to frame Li Weidong.

"It was Li Yuanchao who found me and said that he only wanted me to help him frame you. I don't know what he wants to do specifically, but it seems to be related to the people in Gangcheng."

Zhong Yuemin lowered his head, his voice carrying a hint of regret.

Li Weidong was furious, but he remained calm and asked, "You said Li Yuanchao ordered you to do this. Do you have any evidence?"

Zhong Yuemin raised his head, his eyes full of helplessness and despair, and shook his head: "No, it was just the two of us at the time, he just told me verbally, and there was no evidence left."

Li Weidong frowned, knowing in his heart that without evidence, now was not the time to deal with Li Yuanchao.

The forces behind Li Yuanchao are complicated and intertwined. If you act rashly, not only will you fail to bring him down, but you may also bring yourself even greater trouble.

Li Weidong was not in a hurry. After all, Yang Ting had not given up hope of getting the new energy vehicle and would definitely cause trouble again.

Things developed just as Li Weidong expected.

While Li Weidong was concentrating on interrogating Zhong Yuemin, Yang Ting made careful arrangements and invited Li Yuanchao to the Friendship Hotel.

Inside the Friendship Hotel, a depressing atmosphere permeated the luxurious private rooms.

Yang Ting sat on the sofa with a gloomy expression on his face. Smoke slowly rose from the cigarette in his hand, lingering around his stern face.

As soon as Li Yuanchao came in, he felt this unusual chill.

"Li Yuanchao, what's wrong with you? It's been so long, why haven't you gotten any evidence against Li Weidong?"

Yang Ting was the first to attack, his tone full of questioning and dissatisfaction.

Li Yuanchao sighed helplessly, with a hint of embarrassment and regret on his face.

He walked over to sit opposite Yang Ting, spread his hands and explained: "This is really not my fault. I finally found Zhong Yuemin to help, and I thought it was foolproof, but I didn't expect something went wrong.

Zhong Yuemin was caught by Li Weidong, and he has probably confessed everything now."

When Yang Ting heard this, he was furious. He stood up suddenly and threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground.
He crushed it with his foot and shouted, "How do you do things? You can't even handle such a simple thing! Zhong Yuemin is also a loser, he can't even handle such a small thing!

Now, not only did I fail to bring down Li Weidong, but I also got myself into trouble. What do you think I should do?"

Li Yuanchao was frightened by Yang Ting's anger and trembled slightly, but soon regained his composure.

He also stood up and said with a frown, "Don't be so impatient to get angry. Now that things have come to this, we have to think about what to do next.

Li Weidong must have known that I was behind this, he won't let it go, we have to make plans early."

"Okay, you go first!" Yang Ting realized that Li Yuanchao, the local tyrant, might not be as powerful as he said.

However, Yang Ting also has his own plans, and he will not easily give up his plan against Li Weidong.

Since Yang Ting had learned from Li Yuanchao that Li Weidong was not interested in women, he wondered, what about the money?

In his opinion, there is no man in the world who doesn't love money. It's just that the benefits offered before were not attractive enough.

After making up his mind, Yang Ting carefully prepared one million US dollars, carefully packed it into a box, and then went straight to Li Weidong's office.

At this time, Li Weidong was listening attentively to Qin Jingru's work report.

Seeing Yang Ting suddenly barge in, Li Weidong frowned slightly, feeling unhappy, but he remained calm and said to Qin Jingru: "You go out first."

Qin Jingru glanced at Yang Ting, nodded slightly, turned and left the office.

Li Weidong stood up, looked at Yang Ting coldly, and asked, "Yang Ting, why do you suddenly come to my office?"

Yang Ting still had a smile on his face when facing Li Weidong's rebuke, not caring at all. He walked to the side slowly, gently placed the box he brought on the ground, and then slowly opened it.

In an instant, stacks of brand new US dollars appeared in front of Li Weidong, emitting the smell of ink.

"Li Weidong, let's not beat around the bush."

Yang Ting stood up, crossed his arms, and stared at Li Weidong. "As long as you agree to cooperate with me, the one million dollars will be all yours. This deal is a sure win for you."

Li Weidong was also stunned. Wow, one million dollars in one go. Yang Ting is really a big shot.

"Okay, I'll take the one million dollars." Li Weidong said with a smile.

Hearing this, Yang Ting was overjoyed. The gloom on his face disappeared. He smiled and praised Li Weidong: "Li Weidong, you really know the current situation.

This is the choice that a smart person should make." As he said this, he could not wait to get close to Li Weidong and asked hurriedly: "When do we sign the contract?
I’m already prepared.”

However, Li Weidong ignored him and walked straight to the desk, picked up the phone, dialed the number skillfully, and called the Security Department. "Hello, Chief Li?
Bring two security officers to my office immediately."

Not long after, Section Chief Li hurried over with two security officers.

Li Weidong looked serious, pointed at the box full of US dollars, and said to Section Chief Li: "Section Chief Li, I report that Yang Ting is hoarding foreign exchange."

When Yang Ting heard this, his face turned pale as paper. He widened his eyes and looked at Li Weidong in disbelief. He stammered, "Li... Li Weidong, what... what do you mean by this?"

Just kidding, in those days, private individuals were not allowed to hold foreign exchange. Even though Yang Ting was from Hong Kong, he still needed to exchange his foreign exchange into RMB before coming to the mainland.

Yang Ting had realized the seriousness of the problem at this time.

Section Chief Li walked forward with a serious face and saluted Li Weidong first. His movements were neat and clear, showing his military demeanor. Then, he turned his gaze to Yang Ting and said in a calm but unquestionable tone: "Mr. Yang, please cooperate with our investigation."

Seeing this, Yang Ting was panicked, but he still pretended to be calm and tried to use his identity as a Hong Kong businessman to intimidate the other party. He shouted: "I am a Hong Kong businessman! Do you know what you are doing?"

Section Chief Li was not moved at all. He stared at Yang Ting sharply and asked calmly: "Since you are a Hong Kong businessman, please show me your foreign exchange certificate." The foreign exchange that Yang Ting brought in was originally brought in privately, and there was no certificate at all. He was suddenly speechless, his face turned red and white, and he stammered and couldn't speak.

Seeing that Yang Ting could not produce any proof, Section Chief Li's face darkened and he decisively ordered: "These foreign exchange are suspected of violating regulations and shall be confiscated according to law."

Two security officers immediately stepped forward and carried away the box containing US dollars.

Not only that, Section Chief Li then announced, "Yang Ting, since you cannot provide proof of legal foreign exchange, you are now under detention for investigation."

After saying that, he signaled the security officer to take Yang Ting away.

Yang Ting was like a defeated rooster, his arrogance just now was gone.
He struggled, still yelling: "You can't do this to me, I want to find the leader..."

But the security officers ignored him and carried him out the door.

Not long after Yang Ting was locked up, Section Chief Li came to Li Weidong's office again.

His expression was a little solemn. After entering, he gently closed the door and walked in front of Li Weidong.

"Director Li," Section Chief Li said in a low voice, "I have to remind you that Yang Ting has a very deep foundation.

He has extensive connections in Hong Kong City, and there may be some powerful forces behind him. I am afraid that it will not be long before he is released due to pressure from above."

Li Weidong sat at his desk, looking calm and composed.
Hearing what Section Chief Li said, he nodded slightly, with a resolute smile on his face: "Section Chief Li, thank you for your reminder. But I am not afraid. Since he dared to do these crooked things here, he should be aware of the consequences."

Li Weidong stood up, looked out the window with a determined look, and continued, "If we shrink back just because he has a strong background, similar things will only happen more and more in the future.

I always act according to principles and reason. As long as I behave properly, there is nothing to worry about. Even if he is released, I have ways to deal with it."

Are you kidding? How could Li Weidong be afraid of a mere Yang Ting?

Things turned out just as Li Weidong had expected. Five days later, Yang Ting was released. He returned to the Friendship Hotel with a gloomy face. As soon as he entered the room, his long-suppressed anger broke out. He suddenly grabbed the cup on the table and threw it to the ground. With a "crash", the cup broke into pieces in an instant, and the fragments were scattered all over the floor.

In this operation, Yang Ting lost both his wife and his army. Not only did he fail to obtain the sales rights of new energy vehicles as he wished, but he also lost a million dollars in vain. What was even more frustrating was that he was detained for several days.

This series of blows made him hate Li Weidong with a vengeance.

Yang Ting paced back and forth in the room, the resentment in his heart burning like a raging fire.

Suddenly, he stopped, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and a more vicious idea emerged in his mind. He decided to ask Li Yuanchao to deal with Li Weidong again, and this time, he was no longer satisfied with a simple frame-up, but wanted to make Li Weidong disappear completely.

Yang Ting rushed to the phone, his hands trembling slightly with excitement. He shook the phone quickly, anxiously notifying Li Yuanchao to come to the Friendship Hotel immediately.

After the call was connected, he said in an unquestionable tone: "Li Yuanchao, come to the Friendship Hotel immediately, there is something important!"

Li Yuanchao heard the urgency and unkindness in Yang Ting's tone on the other end of the phone. Although he was full of doubts and didn't know what Yang Ting was going to do, he agreed after hesitating for a moment.

After all, if Li Yuanchao could curry favor with Yang Ting, a big shot, he would have a backer in the future.

Not long after, Li Yuanchao hurried to the Friendship Hotel. Yang Ting had been waiting anxiously in the room. When he saw Li Yuanchao enter, he could not wait to close the door, pulled Li Yuanchao to the sofa, and said in a low but vicious voice: "Li Yuanchao, I want you to find someone to kill Li Weidong!"

When Li Yuanchao heard this, he felt like he was struck by thunder. He was stunned for a moment, with fear written all over his face.

He stared at Yang Ting with eyes wide open in disbelief, and stammered, "Are you crazy? This is not a joke. Murder is a serious crime. Once it's exposed, we'll all be doomed!"

Seeing Li Yuanchao so terrified, Yang Ting couldn't help but sneer, his eyes full of disdain, "Hmph, I think you are just timid and cowardly. You want to do big things with such little courage?" He crossed his arms across his chest, raised his chin slightly, and looked arrogant.

In fact, Yang Ting didn't understand Li Yuanchao at all.

Li Yuanchao seemed to be very scared on the surface, but in fact, in the original book, he was an extremely insidious person, and he didn't mind killing people at all.

At this moment, he was just making his own plans, wanting to take the opportunity to extort a high price from Yang Ting.

As a gangster, how could he not have killed people?
So, he pretended to be provoked by Yang Ting's words, showing a trace of anger on his face, and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, Yang Ting, you are so cruel! I will help you with this. But you also know that Li Weidong is too powerful. Ordinary small characters can't touch him at all. You must find a real master."
