Chapter 645: 745th Big Trouble
At first, his grudge with Qian Xinxin was personal, but now, he had incited everyone's anger. Like Qian Xinxin, such people are beasts who provoke both man and god's wrath, receiving universal criticism.
But if we were to directly kill Qian Xinxin, it would be too lenient on him. We must let him die in agony and suffering.
In the prison for major offenders, someone as gentle and caring as Qian Xinxin should be quite popular.
After more than an hour of driving, Zhang Dadan finally returned to Qingcheng County. As soon as he stepped out of the station, he saw Zhou Yong.
"Dadan... over here... over here..." Zhou Yong leaned against the BYD car, frantically waving at Zhang Chuanfu.
Zhang Dadan ran over, glanced at the car behind him, and asked, "Where did this car come from? Why aren't you driving?"
Zhou Yong's face showed a smug expression upon hearing this. "Of course, you haven't seen it. This is my partner's brand-new purchase!"
"Bought new?" Zhang Dadan looked again, not expecting this bastard to have actually bought a car.
"My few months' dividends are not enough to buy a car? I suggest you get a driver's license soon and buy your own car." Zhou Yong said excitedly.
Saying he wasn't envious was impossible for Zhang Dadan, but where did he have the time to get a driver's license now?
"Nonsense! Hurry up and get back to Jiji. If it smells good again, I'll take off your license plate!" Zhang Dadan laughed and cursed.
Although scolded, Zhou Yong was even prouder and flicked his hair back, "Jealous! You're glaringly jealous!"
While talking, they had already boarded the bus and were on their way to Jiji.
On the bus, Zhou Yong kept rambling about his car. Fortunately, Jiji wasn't far from the bus station, so Zhang Dadan wasn't driven mad by his chatter.
When they returned to Jiji, it was around four o'clock. Lunchtime was over, and it was too early for dinner. Jiji felt somewhat cold.
Fearing a misunderstanding, Zhou Yong reminded him again, "Dadan, don't get me wrong. Our business is doing well."
"I don't engage in daily management; I'm no fool. Need to explain things to me three to five times?" Zhang Dadan ascended the stairs.
They entered a private room and asked the waiter to brew a pot of tea. They looked forward to Xia Ji's good future.
Just when Zhou Yong fell silent, Zhang Dadan suddenly turned to ask, "Have you heard about Qian Xinxin recently?"
Restaurants and bars have always been crucial information channels; they can't hide anything from them.
However, Zhou Yong wasn't clear about Zhang Bo's feud with the Qian Family. He thought Dadan was worried about the troubles Qian Xinxin might bring them on opening day.
"Rest assured! Qian Xinxin hasn't dared to come looking for us recently!" Zhou Yong responded casually.
Zhang Dadan sighed and explained, "Most of the diners are people with money and power."
Although Zhou Yong didn't understand Zhang Bohu's intentions, he still followed his instructions and called Uncle Ma, inviting him to Jiji for dinner.
Ma Youliang always cherished his reputation and wouldn't casually accept invitations, even from a friend's son.
However, upon learning that Zhou Yong was merely a chatty person and Zhang Dadan was the real one wanting to invite him, he agreed.
In Ma Youliang's view, Zhang Daqi was bold, young and promising, mature and steady, and had good relations with the Muu and Sunx families. He shouldn't make others do things against their principles.
Moreover, Zhang Bode had treated their family well. How could he be so cold to refuse them from afar?
After agreeing to dine with Ma Youliang, Zhang Daqi pushed Zhou Yong out and lay on the sofa to rest.
It wasn't until sunset that Zhou Yongfang came to wake him. He had to be dragged to invite Ma Youliang.
Following local customs of hospitality, they really needed to invite Ma Youliang personally, but Zhang Daqi was unwilling to prematurely reveal his intentions, naturally creating a bad impression.
"Zhou Yong, why don't you go yourself? I'm watching the chef cook." Zhang Dadan laughed and made an absurd statement.
Zhou Yong, being a worldly brother, took it upon himself to remind others about the ways of the world.
"Dadan, why don't you go? Does Ma Youliang think we overlooked him?" Zhou Yong tilted his body to strike.
Zhang Dadan smelled this and shook his head, laughing, "What neglect nonsense! Aren't I getting nothing from him?"
These words puzzled Zhou Yong even more. If he didn't like Ma Youliang, why invite him to dinner? Just to connect with each other? Zhou Yong didn't think Zhang Dadan was such a boring person!
But he didn't want to clarify too much, so he had to remind him, "Let's discuss this more. If any problems arise, don't blame me."
"Alright! Hurry up! Ma Youliang isn't a calculative person!" Zhang Dadan said, pretending impatience.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Yong could no longer persuade him and went downstairs alone to invite Ma Youliang.
After Zhou Yong left, Zhang Dadan took a USB drive from his bag, clenched it in his palm, and quickly thought.
The content on the USB alone was enough to ruin Qian Xinxin's reputation, to have him spend his life in prison, or even face the death penalty.
But as long as the Qian family didn't collapse, the Qian city was still full of hands and eyes, and all this could become an unknown.
To make Qian Xinxin collect soap daily in prison and avenge the original arrow, Zhang Dadan had to thoroughly destroy the Qian family.
However, the video evidence on the USB could only prove Qian Xinxin's guilt but not harm the Qian family's foundation.
But Mu Zhuangfei had secretly hinted to him that the Qian Family had become increasingly lawless over the years, and Mu Zhuangfei was ready to abandon the Qian Family.
This meant wealthy families would lose powerful support, and some had reported that wealthy family businesses were evading taxes. Zhang Dadan only needed to watch the fire from the other shore and add fuel at the right time.
What Zhang Dadan needed to do now was to hasten this fueling moment and then crush them immediately.
Ma Youliang was one of the key links. Whether he could withstand the pressure and investigate banks with industry and tax authorities was a matter of success or failure.
Zhang Bode waited in the car for nearly an hour. Finally, he heard familiar voices slowly approaching the car.
"Uncle Ma, it's a sin to meet you in your busy schedule... a sin..." Zhang Daqi boldly rushed out of the car with exaggerated courtesy.
He was so serious that Ma Youliang felt uncomfortable. Zhang Bolun must have a request!
"Dadan, you're too formal. We are just having a friend's dinner. Where did all these lies come from?" Ma Youliang set the tone for the meal.
Just a friend's dinner. If anything happens to me, I will not pursue personal interests.
Zhang Dadan wasn't seeking personal interests, so naturally, he didn't mind his public-private attitude.
"Of course, it's just a friend's dinner. Don't overthink it!" Zhang Daqi boldly agreed and invited him in.
The three of them entered the private room, exchanging pleasantries with courtesy. After they sat down, Zhang Dadan hurriedly asked the waiter to begin the service.
Jiji's high consumption was well-known in the county, so by the time Ma Youliang reached the fourth dish, he hastily stopped them.
"It's just the three of us, and we are already full. Let's stop here!" Ma Youliang said unequivocally.
