Chapter 398 Don’t know whether to live or die (please recommend and vote monthly)
"Brother Tang, to tell you the truth, it's not that I have trouble with him. In fact, it's quite the opposite. It's that he, I, and our Ming family have trouble with each other."
Faced with Tang Shengming's questioning, Li Qiang replied without any concealment.
Seeing that Tang Shengming was still looking at him with a puzzled expression, Li Qiang continued to say patiently: "I wonder if eldest brother has heard about the explosion that happened in Dongguixingli a few months ago?"
"I have heard a little bit. I heard that No. 76 had an accident during the operation to capture the 'Poisonous Scorpion', and many people were killed or injured."
"That's right! Wu Shibao is one of them. It was because he disobeyed the orders of Zheng Yaoxian, the director of the Second Operation Division, that indirectly led to the tragedy. But even if it happened suddenly, the boy's
His reaction was really fast, and he immediately pulled the men around him to use as human shields, and he escaped. But even so, he was still lying in the hospital for more than two months."
After hearing this, Tang Shengming nodded clearly, "So that's the case, but what does this have to do with the grudge between you two?"
"Originally, it had nothing to do with it, but after he was discharged from the hospital, he learned that Zheng Yaoxian not only did not pass all the blame on him, but also said a lot of good things for him in front of Li Shiqun, so he came up with the idea of repaying his kindness. Later,
, I don’t know where he found out about the early grudges between Zheng Yaoxian and my eldest brother Minglou, so he started to go against the Ming family everywhere."
"So, has this young master boarded your pirate ship?" Tang Shengming said with a half-smile, "Well, anyway, I have always hated those unscrupulous gangsters, so I just treat it as a favor.
Well, what else do you need me to do?"
Li Qiang didn't want to but spread his hands, shook his head and said: "There is no need to do anything. I know Wu Shibao's character very well. I bet that even if we do nothing, he will come to our door by himself."
The two of them just chatted while drinking coffee. Of course, it was not ordinary chatting, but a tacit way to test each other through chatting.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened, and the club became more lively. Of course, most of the people came here for the Four Nights competition in the evening.
"Master Bao, looking at today's situation, our efficiency will probably hit a new high again!" A subordinate looked at the endless crowd of people who came to support him and couldn't help but said to Wu Shibao with joy.
At this time, although Wu Shibao was still worried about what happened in the casino that afternoon, after hearing what his subordinates said, a smile finally appeared on his face.
But at this moment, by coincidence, he saw Li Qiang and Tang Shengming walking towards him, so he sneered and called the subordinate over to whisper a few words.
"You two, you have been listed as persona non grata in this club, so you cannot enter. Please go back!" As soon as the two of them reached the door of the dance hall, they were stopped and said unceremoniously.
Unexpectedly, Tang Shengming said in an even more arrogant tone: "What an unpopular person. If I have to go in today, what can you do to me?"
"You can try."
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang on the side finally couldn't help but shouted sharply: "You bastard! How dare you talk to Mr. Tang like this? Are you impatient?"
"What's the matter with less sugar and less salt? I've never heard of it. How come I never knew there was such a famous figure in Shanghai? If you are wise, get out of here. Don't be an eyesore here, do you hear me?"
"you!"
"What's so noisy!" Just when the two sides were arguing more and more fiercely, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger, Wu Shibao's unique hoarse voice rang out lazily, "It's you again!? The surname is Ming.
, I think you came here today to deliberately cause trouble, right?"
"Hey, Captain Wu, I don't like hearing this. I brought people here to flatter you with good intentions, how come I'm deliberately looking for trouble?"
"Stop talking nonsense, this is my territory. If I don't welcome you, I won't welcome you. What can you do to me?"
"you!"
Li Qiang wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Tang Shengming, "Okay, Section Chief Ming, it's useless to talk more. Don't waste any more time with people like this. Let's go!"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Strange to say, watching the two people leaving, Wu Shibao felt a hint of uneasiness for no reason, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, so he said to his most capable subordinate: "Go, check the wall."
Find out the details of the guy next to you and see where he comes from."
"yes!"
…
Although Tang Shengming was unable to witness the grand scene of the Four Dans competing for the title due to the grievances between the Ming family and Wu Shibao, in the next two days, Li Qiang took him almost all over Shanghai, including the racecourse in the morning, the racecourse at noon,
Li Qiang took him three times to the grand theater, the dog racing track in the afternoon, and the Paramount in the evening. Just the Japanese owned Tom Cruise.
I had so much fun that I almost forgot all about going to Nanjing to meet Wang Jingwei.
However, even though the time the two spent together was only two and a half days, they quickly established a deep friendship between the two men while eating, drinking, and having fun.
At this point, Li Qiang has relatively successfully completed the first task assigned to him by Zhou Fohai.
But not long after Li Qiang said goodbye to the Fourth Young Master of Tang Dynasty, early that morning, he suddenly received a piece of news without warning: Fang Yesian, the domestic product king who had once had a relationship with him, had been kidnapped!
After receiving the news, Li Qiang immediately rushed to the Gu Mansion without stopping. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that many people had gathered in the Gu family living room, which was originally relatively spacious. Although there were many people, they all looked worried.
, all faces were filled with worry.
"Nephew, you're here!" Seeing Li Qiang come in, Gu Minzhang immediately stood up and said to him, "Come on, follow me to the study."
After saying that, he took Li Qiang into the study. In the study, Mr. Xian and others had been waiting for a long time.
"The thing is like this. Last night, Chairman Fang suddenly received a call from an acquaintance. The phone said: A big businessman from Nanyang wanted to discuss business with him and asked him if he could meet. After questioning, Chairman Fang said,
After asking about the business project, we agreed to the other party's request to meet. The two parties agreed to meet at the International Hotel this morning. But just when Chairman Fang left home on time to attend the appointment, an accident happened." Gu Minzhang tried his best to use concise words.
The language described what happened to Li Qiang, "At nine o'clock in the morning, as soon as Chairman Fang's car got out of the hospital, a group of kidnappers suddenly swarmed up and blocked the way of the car. Chairman Fang's bodyguard immediately drew his gun when he saw this, but
He was shot seven times by the brutal kidnapper leader and killed on the spot. Then he got into the car and held Chairman Fang hostage, forcing the driver to drive."
Speaking of this, Mr.
They rushed over. In desperation, the kidnappers kicked the driver under the car, then turned around and sped away eastward."
After hearing this, Li Qiang quickly lowered his head and looked at the time. It was already past eleven o'clock, which meant that more than two hours had passed since Fang Ye was kidnapped first.
"Since it is a kidnapping, the kidnappers are only after money. I wonder if the Fang family has received any extortion letters or phone calls from the kidnappers?"
Gu Minzhang shook his head, "Not yet. But I have arranged manpower there, and they will report to me immediately if there is any progress."
Li Qiang's expression became even more solemn, "It would be fine if some blind young man kidnapped Chairman Fang by mistake. I'm just afraid..."
"Nephew, you mean... No. 76 did it?" Gu Minzhang keenly heard the overtones of Li Qiang and asked with a heavy heart.
"Nine times out of ten, after all, they have done a lot of things like beating sap, kidnapping meat tickets, and extorting money. If it was really them, then I wouldn't be surprised at all."
"Yes, this is what we are most worried about. Nephew, to tell you the truth, although I am the vice president of the maintenance committee, I believe you also know that there are some things that it is not convenient for me to come forward, so I
I called you here in such a hurry, please help me confirm."
"Uncle Gu, don't worry. My nephew should do his best. The uncles will wait a moment. I'll be back soon." After saying that, he turned around and left the study.
At the same time, in a dilapidated private house in the western suburbs of Shanghai, the kidnapper leader, who had been bothered by Fang Yesian's constant struggles and calls for help, finally found a rag and blocked Fang Yesian's mouth.
Got it right.
Then he turned to one of his men and said, "Go, get 'that medicine' and give him an injection!"
As soon as these words came out, the subordinate couldn't help but hesitate. You must know that "that medicine" mentioned by the kidnapper leader is not an ordinary medicine, but a powerful anesthetic used by veterinarians to anesthetize cattle. Once the dosage is not controlled well, it will
It will kill people.
When the kidnapper saw this, he couldn't help but cursed, "Damn it, everyone was more active than the other when sharing the money, why are they so timid than the other? Useless things!"
After saying that, he personally found the medicine and injected it into Fang Yesian's body very roughly. Poor Fang Yesian struggled a few times at first, but soon fell asleep under the strong effect of the medicine.
Upon seeing this, the kidnapper leader simply threw the needle in his hand to the ground and cursed angrily: "Grandma, why are you standing there? Why don't you take care of his wounds? If the boss knows that this guy failed,
We can’t even eat and walk around!”
Hearing what he said, the kidnappers seemed to wake up from a dream and started to deal with Fang Yesian's wound accidentally hit by a stray bullet.
…
Waiting is always the most difficult thing, and Gu Minzhang and others waited for most of the day. By the time Li Qiang finally came back, the sun was almost setting.
"How's it going? Did you hear anything?" As soon as Li Qiang came in, Mr. Xian immediately asked anxiously.
Gu Minzhang carefully poured a glass of water for Li Qiang, "My dear nephew, take a drink of water first and speak slowly."
Li Qiang gratefully took the glass and took a sip, and then said: "After many inquiries, it was found that a very suspicious car secretly drove into No. 76 just half an hour ago, and a man was pressed down from the car.
The person was sent directly to jail, most likely Chairman Fang."
As soon as these words came out, the already grumpy Lu Chuanwang immediately jumped into the crime, "Wow! It's really those bastards from No. 76! Lao Gu, you can't just sit idly by and ignore this matter!"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Minzhang, who was always polite to others, raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Of course! Those bastards on No. 76 dare to put their ideas on our heads. It's really
What a coward! How can this happen once something like this happens? Lao Lu, you are familiar with the people in the newspaper office, tell them to spread the news about Chairman Fang being kidnapped by No. 76 immediately!"
"No problem, I'll go over and watch them write!"
Gu Minzhang then turned to look at Mr.
"Okay! What about you?"
"I will ask Ms. Zhao to book a ticket now to go to Nanjing and find Chairman Wang!"
Just as the three of them were about to go their separate ways, Li Qiang finally couldn't help but ask: "What about me? What can I do?"
"Don't do anything! The nature of this matter has changed now. It is no longer a simple kidnapping case, but a major event related to the survival of the entire Shanghai industrial and commercial community. You have done enough, and the rest is
Leave it to us old guys!"
…
That night, when Wu Shibao was still having fun in his club and was drunk and dreaming, he was called back to the secret service headquarters by a phone call from Li Shiqun.
"Master...director, you...burp...you called me?" Wu Shibao, who was obviously not sober yet, said with drunken eyes while hiccupping from wine.
Unexpectedly, Li Shiqun slammed the table, which immediately scared away half of Wu Shibao's drunkenness, "Thank you for still thinking about drinking! Let me ask you, did you have Fang Yexian, the 'King of Domestic Products', kidnapped?"
"Fang...Liexian? Which Fang Ye goes first?"
However, before Wu Shibao could finish what he said, Li Shiqun poured the cold tea in the cup into his face without saying a word, and then continued to ask angrily: "How are you? Are you awake? Tell me, is it you?
Someone kidnapped that Fang Yesian?"
Only then did Wu Shibao wake up a little, and after thinking hard for a while, he nodded and said: "Ah, I remembered, it was Baolin, Baolin and the others who tied him up. Isn't it because the birthday of your wife, director, is coming soon?
, that’s why they hired Piao Da, saying they wanted to honor her and respect her."
Before he could finish his words, Li Shiqun stood up from his chair without saying a word, rounded his arms and slapped Wu Shibao hard on the left side of his face...
