Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 306 A Horrifying Speculation! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

He studied and lived abroad, and only returned to Dongguo at the age of thirty!
The significance of these words is immense!
“That’s right.” Yang Ruoxi nodded. She had already memorized Zhu Haoyi and Li Yang’s identity information last night, so she answered with ease.

"If you calculate the time, he has at least twenty years of overseas living experience."

"As for my parents... they seem to be dead, they died more than 20 years ago."

Twenty years.

How many twenty-year periods does one have in a lifetime?
I don't know, but Xu Liang has only lived for twenty-four years, from birth to now.

If I were to apply this to myself, it would mean that I only lived in the Eastern Kingdom for four years.

"hiss"

"There's a problem."

Xu Liang frowned, a look of disbelief on his face, and sat down in his chair to think deeply.

What's the problem?

Firstly, why did the other party want to return to Dongguo?
To put it simply, if a person grew up in the Western Country and his parents left immediately upon his return from the port, his family background must have been one of dislike, or even hatred, towards the Eastern Country.

If that's the case, then his parents would never have instilled in Zhu Haoyi any concepts of being "from the East" or "family".

Therefore, the possibility of Zhu Haoyi having feelings for Dongguo was eliminated.

Zhu Haoyi, having spent so much time in the West, should theoretically know that for a capitalist, the West is definitely more comfortable than the East. Therefore...
"No feelings, no benefits, return to the Eastern Kingdom."

Xu Liang murmured, his voice neither too loud nor too soft, but enough to reach the ears of those around him.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi was slightly taken aback, as if she realized something, but she didn't dare to think about it too much.

"That means there's profit to be made!"

It's profitable.
If Zhu Haoyi is truly a bloodthirsty capitalist, exploiting Zhengyang City and turning countless people into victims, depositing their money into his bank account, then it certainly fits the description of being profitable.

but.
"Rare earth mining cooperation with state-owned enterprises"

Xu Liang paused, his brows furrowing, his mind a jumble of thoughts.

At this moment, he overturned all his previous thoughts and spoke:

"Little Sheep, Zhengyang Mining Company, when did you start looking for rare earth mines?"

Judging from Yangshangou and the fact that the other party quickly cooperated with state-owned enterprises, Xu Liang asserted that Zhu Haoyi of Zhengyang Mining Company must be after rare earth mines. And for any mine, exploration and prospecting are inevitable.

If the timeframe for mineral exploration can be determined, the time elapsed from the beginning to the present often serves as evidence of the other party's intentions!

This allows us to indirectly determine the extent of the other party's needs!

"I don't know that."

Yang Ruoxi hesitated, because he really didn't know that.

Not only did he not know, but he also guessed that apart from Zhu Haoyi and the surveyors, the person in charge of the mine in Zhengyang City did not know!

But one thing is certain.
"It was a long time ago, because five years ago the other party had cooperated with other people on rare earth projects, but it ended badly."

Yang Ruoxi spoke up.

The rest of the group will collaborate on rare earth projects.
Xu Liang's eyes suddenly flashed.

He realized that he might be able to delve deeper into rare earth minerals!
As for Zhang Shan's death, it is indeed important, but there is really no conclusive evidence in Zhengyang City that Zhang Shan was killed by someone else, and even the fate of his wife is unknown.

With the trial imminent, he needed to have sufficient evidence to proceed with the proceedings!
As for whether the evidence is relevant to the case.
That's not a big problem, as long as the evidence found is strong enough, even if the clues are unrelated to the case.
Even the court had to swallow its pride and accept it!
Who has Zhu Haoyi collaborated with?

Xu Liang suddenly spoke up, preparing to conduct an in-depth investigation.

“A medium-sized mining company in Yangnan City, Beihai Province,” Yang Ruoxi said leisurely after a moment of thought.

She's like an encyclopedia now; she knows almost everything Xu Liang asks, and all of that was memorized in just one night!

"Can you get in touch with this mining company?" Xu Liang asked again.

"Should... be able to?"

Yang Ruoxi hesitated.

Companies are generally easy to contact, after all, every company needs to do business, how can they do business if they can't be contacted?
The difficulty lies in the inability to accurately contact the company's boss!

"Do you know the phone number?" Xu Liang asked warmly.

"I know, I wrote it down last night."

As she spoke, Yang Ruoxi took out a small notebook, on which was written the public contact number of mining companies in Yangnan City!

"Give."

She reached out and handed it to Xu Liang, who took it without hesitation and immediately took out his phone from his pocket.

Then, I started dialing the number above.

"dududu~"

The phone beeped, and soon the call was answered, a sweet voice appearing in my ear.

"Hello~?"

"This is Sky Resources Co., Ltd. How can I help you?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang did not hesitate and spoke decisively, getting straight to the point:
"The Upper City Supreme Court has a case that requires your company's cooperation."

"Find your manager and have him hand the phone over to the company boss."

Upper City Supreme Court
Xu Liang is certainly not a member of the Supreme Court, but he can certainly use its influence to his advantage!
After all, he didn't say he was from the Supreme Court, so it can't be considered that he deceived the other party!

As for whether the other party will believe it, to be honest, once the words "Supreme Court" are mentioned, few people don't take it seriously.

Sure enough, the girl on the other end of the phone fell silent the moment she finished speaking.

"Please wait."

Immediately afterward, a series of hurried footsteps were heard. A short while later...

A middle-aged man's voice came through the phone speaker. It was the company manager. After a quick check, he realized that the call was indeed coming from Shangcheng. Without hesitation, he went to find his boss.

Other companies might have some doubts.

But mining companies won't.

Mining companies could very well receive such calls, so he can't afford to be careless!
After a long while, the boss of Tianji Resources Company finally had a proper conversation with Xu Liang.

Hello, may I ask who you are?

On the other end of the phone, President Duan cautiously and hesitantly asked.

"Have you seen the news? The case of the plaintiff filing a lawsuit at the Upper City Supreme Court."

Xu Liang spoke calmly, sitting in his chair as if he were having a normal conversation with the other person.

News, a case of filing a lawsuit with one's head as the victim's head.
Mr. Duan paused, then immediately understood, and some information flashed through his mind.

He absolutely has to watch the news, because it's related to policies and future trends. If you want to start a business and seize the opportunity, you have to observe the news every day!
just
"Then you...?" President Duan's breathing slowed slightly, and he became anxious.

He was shocked when he saw it in the morning. The case was so big that even someone like him who watches the news every day thought he had switched to some low-quality channel!

It was only later that they discovered it was a domestic channel.
“This is a very big case, and I am now in charge of it at the Supreme Court.”

Xu Liang spoke calmly.

The Supreme Court is responsible for the case.
The answer is already there.

Judge!

He's a senior judge of the Supreme Court!
President Duan instantly became solemn and ready for battle, then his heart pounded with apprehension, a chill emanating from his body as he said:

"What do you call it?"

"My surname is Xu."

"Judge Xu, how does this case relate to me, or rather, to my company?"

"I'm trembling with fear," said Mr. Duan.

He didn't know how he got involved in the case, but he knew that if he even remotely connected to it, he wouldn't have a good outcome!
It's best to figure out what's in your best interest as soon as possible!

"Do you know Zhu Haoyi?" Xu Liang asked.

Zhu Haoyi.
Mr. Duan paused, his mind wandering to things related to the name, before finally his face froze and he spoke:

"I don't remember much."

"I'll give you a hint: five years ago, rare earth mines..."

Xu Liang offered a reminder.

At this, Mr. Duan paused, a few key words flashing through his mind. He instantly understood and quickly said:
"Zhu Haoyi from Zhengyang City, South China Sea Province!?"

"Correct."

Xu Liang nodded, then said:

Five years ago, Zhu Haoyi and you collaborated on a small rare earth mine, and the two parties jointly explored it.

Why did this project not continue afterward?

Although Mr. Duan didn't know how the case of the man who filed the lawsuit in Shangcheng had anything to do with his project from five years ago, he still answered honestly:
"Sales issues."

“At that time, I was having cash flow problems, and cooperating with Zhengyang Mining Company could solve my immediate problem.”

"The original intention was to simply purify the rare earth ore and then trade and sell it for profit, but Zhu Haoyi said that the purification technology was too crude and was a complete waste of raw materials."

"But our company's commercial purification methods have already reached the 3n level!"

"Compared to global standards, and even comparable to the purification levels of some countries, the purity is absolutely sufficient!"

As he spoke, a hint of anger crept into Mr. Duan's voice:

"But Zhu Haoyi stubbornly refused to use the company's purification method!"

"The other party insisted on in-depth cooperation with state-owned enterprises, using the state-owned enterprise extraction method for cooperation."

The extraction method is indeed powerful, and Mr. Duan understands this point. The purity of this stuff is almost 100%!

It's not something his 3n level can compare to, but problems also arise.

"I am not a cutting-edge technology manufacturing company!"

"I'm just someone who makes money by selling minerals. A purity level of 3n is something that people all over the world are fighting over!"

"As long as he's willing to invest in easing my cash flow, we can sell the goods and everyone will make a fortune!"

Mr. Duan got angry when he brought this up, and his tone gradually became a little harsher.

"But he insists on partnering with state-owned enterprises. If the state-owned enterprises take the lead, what profit can I possibly make?!"

for example.

You have something that can be sold for ten dollars, and with your skills, you can sell it for twelve dollars.

However, cooperating with state-owned enterprises is like the other party being able to sell resources worth 10 for 14, but if the two are split equally, you will find that you only get 7, far less than 12.

Even the profit split by General Manager Duan wasn't 50/50; it was actually divided among three companies.

From this perspective, if he were to cooperate, he would be losing money!
"State-owned enterprises."

Xu Liang narrowed his eyes, his mind racing, countless possibilities flashing through his head.

After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"Do you know anything else about Zhu Haoyi?"
