Chapter 278 Don't say you weren't warned!
Jiang Xiong chuckled awkwardly as he took the cigarettes back, put them back in the box, and didn't smoke any himself.
"Then I'll get straight to the point."
Jiang Xiong turned off his phone in front of Dawei.
"There are no recording devices installed in the car. If you don't trust us, we can sit by the river and chat."
"There's no need for that, let's talk right here."
"Alright." Jiang Xiong paused, took a deep breath, and said, "Secretary Xiangzhang has committed suicide."
Even the deepest grudges should eventually fade away.
On behalf of his family and his friends, I'm here to plead with County Magistrate Chen for leniency.
Zhou Dongliang is already in prison, so let's not delve into any further matters.
From now on, you can go your own way, and the Zhou Dongliang family will never cause you any more trouble…
David raised his hand to stop the other person from speaking: "Stop."
Zhou Xiangzhang's fate was his own fault, and his ending has absolutely nothing to do with me.
Please don't connect his death with me.
My relationship with Zhou Xiangzhang is just a normal working relationship; there's no personal grudge as you described.
Secondly, Zhou Dongliang's matter has nothing to do with me.
From the time he was arrested to the time he was transferred to the procuratorate for prosecution, the entire process was open and transparent. I did not participate in the whole process, nor did I instruct anyone to interfere.
You can't really talk to me about Zhou Dongliang.
I believe that the judicial authorities will never wrong an innocent person, nor will they let a guilty person go unpunished.
Everything has its own rules.
I, Chen Dawei, will never interfere with the impartiality of the judiciary.
Dawei spoke with righteous indignation, leaving Jiang Xiong feeling frustrated.
David didn't take advantage of anyone, so he naturally had the right to be arrogant.
"Alright, let's put this matter aside for now."
I have something else to discuss with you.
For example, the county public security bureau has yet to conclude the closure of Shengshi KTV.
The answer is that it's still under investigation.
"Do you think we should let Zheng Zhiguo..."
Dawei was about to speak again, but this time Jiang Xiong stopped him.
"Please don't rush to reject me."
Jiang Xiong took out his checkbook.
"Write down the number you need."
David glanced at the checkbook, then at Jiang Xiong, and scoffed, "You've been waiting here for me all this time just to tell me this?"
"I know what you want, and I will cooperate with you in the whole process."
You'll only be here for one term at most, why make things difficult for us?
I can also help you.
I, Jiang Xiong, am still capable of getting things done.
It's better to have more friends than more enemies.
Jiang Xiong smiled faintly.
The implication is that he will be more restrained and will not cause as much trouble for the county party committee and government as he did during Zhou Xiangzhang's time.
Jiang Xiong wanted to find a compromise.
He could neither fall out with David and his group, nor fail to survive during David's term, but rather wait for his future rise.
This will stabilize Chen Wei's base in Yuanshan County and allow Wansheng Group's main business to be preserved.
The price was an astronomical sum to buy out the peace and stability that David had enjoyed during his tenure.
Jiang Xiong's last sentence was, "It's better to have more friends than more enemies."
In reality, it was a warning: if Dawei didn't cooperate, then there would be another enemy, someone who would definitely make trouble for Dawei.
David was completely unfazed by the other party's threats and inducements: "I have no enemies along the way, only teachers, and I don't lack any friends."
If you are doing business legally, you don't need to send any checks.
It's illegal, and I will definitely take action against you.
You don't need to put on an act with me. Zhou Xiangzhang can get in, let alone a businessman like you.
I'm not a difficult person to talk to; I can actually give you a way out.
If you know what's good for you, advise your master to stop doing evil.
Pack up and sell whatever you can as soon as possible.
You should leave as soon as possible.
Time is running out for you.
Don't say you weren't warned!
David put his hand on the door handle, ready to open the door and get out of the car.
The original plan was to finalize the personnel arrangements for the county party committee so that I could deal with Jiang Xiong once I had some free time.
However, being able to subdue the enemy without fighting and make Jiang Xiong and others withdraw voluntarily saved a lot of effort and avoided making many mortal enemies.
"County Magistrate Chen!"
Seeing that he was not giving him any face and was about to leave, Jiang Xiong immediately called him back.
Dawei stopped what he was doing, turned his head and looked at him coldly.
Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. Wansheng Group has so many employees, can you manage them all?
You gain money, fame, and political achievements.
I can give you anything you want.
Why can't we just give them a break?!
Jiang Xiong questioned him in an unfriendly tone.
"I was never born to compromise."
As long as Wansheng Group remains in operation, the people of Yuanshan County will not be able to eat or sleep well.
I'm not doing this for myself.
I'm doing this for everyone, and I'm not afraid of anyone.
Your company is a severely polluting enterprise, and also a borderline industry like Shengshi KTV.
You, Wansheng Group, have a lot of people;
But behind me are hundreds of thousands of people from remote mountain counties.
You think you have more people than me?
Ha ha……
He said all the nice things he could.
You'd better think about what's best for you.
I'm warning you, if you block my way at the entrance of the residential area again, I'll definitely have Zheng Zhiguo arrest you.
After Dawei finished speaking, he pushed open the car door and got out, slamming the door shut so hard that Jiang Xiong inside the car shook.
If it's not your own car, you just don't care.
Dawei walked slowly toward the entrance of the residential area with his hands behind his back, followed closely by two security guards.
At the entrance of the residential compound, two county government employees greeted Dawei warmly when they saw him return. Dawei, as if nothing had happened, smiled kindly and waved back.
Jiang Xiong, who was in the car, picked up the phone and called his men who had retreated to a distance of about 100 meters. After the call connected, he shouted loudly, "Come back! Come back!"
I was furious.
Anger indicates that he is truly powerless.
Then he called Chen Wei to report.
After listening, Chen Wei, who was far away in Huicheng, remained silent for a while: "It's about what my dad expected. This kid isn't greedy for money, so he'll be hard to deal with."
"Then, shall we color it?"
"Do you think he lacks female company?"
"That's true... but who can say for sure about men?"
"You can try, but I don't think there's much hope. Chen Huan went to the provincial capital just a while ago, and he's still in detention."
Jiang Xiong knew Chen Huan's looks. If Chen Dawei could resist a woman like that, then the outcome would probably be similar for anyone else.
"Then we'll have to take a longer approach."
"Yes, let's retreat to Huicheng and think of another way."
The two of them were preparing to leave the country a few days ago, but after hearing the news of Zhou Xiangzhang's death, they immediately returned to Huicheng, but they still dare not go back to Meihua City.
Chen Wei is being very cunning right now, and is still observing the situation.
Sending Jiang Xiong out was also a way of being prepared to sacrifice him at any time.
……
Early the next morning.
Ding Tingting was woken up by a phone call.
Upon answering the phone, it turned out to be a call from Chen Huan's father.
It turned out that Chen Huan's parents received a call from the Yuanshan County Public Security Bureau, which issued a notice of criminal detention for Chen Huan.
Chen Huan is Tingting's good friend.
So Chen Huan's parents went to Tingting's home in Yangcheng, hoping that Tingting could step in and help.
Upon hearing that Tingting was already in Yuanshan County, Chen Huan's father immediately called.
