Chapter 191: Who on Earth Did We Arrest?
A chamber of commerce can be seen as an alliance of several business companies. Companies in a region come together to form a chamber of commerce, which can greatly enhance their strength.
In ancient times, there were Jin Merchants and Hui Business, and modern times are no different.
Among them, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce can be considered one of the top chambers of commerce in Huaxia. It is very powerful, with substantial funds, and has made significant contributions to the economic development of Jiangnan City and the entire province.
Therefore, no official dares to ignore them; they are an important force, even if they do not approach politics.
Xia Chuan Ye is currently the president of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. Of course, he also has another identity—Die Qingcheng Club's noble lady, Miss Wen's husband.
Zhao Ming was startled and hurriedly went up to greet him: "Mr. Xia, why are you here?"
Xia Chuan Ye smiled bitterly, "It's embarrassing to say. I originally didn't want to show up, but pressured by my wife's urging, I had to come and make a trip."
Xia Chuan Ye greeted Fang Jianguo and the others and also sat down.
"Mr. Xia, what's going on?"
Zhao Ming was even more puzzled.
"It's like this: recently, you detained a person named Ren Feng. I'm here to ask Mr. Zhao if you can do me a small favor and release him."
This made Zhao Ming and the people present all startled.
Was Xia Chuan Ye also here for Ren Feng?
Mr. Ye said nothing, just took a sip of tea.
Fang Jianguo was stunned.
Liao Zhang could only feel cold sweat forming on his forehead; why was there yet another one?
Zhao Ming also had a wry smile in his heart, never expecting the president of Jiangnan City's chamber of commerce to come as well.
Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, someone else walked in from outside, and upon seeing those present, couldn't help but be stunned.
"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Fang, it's been a long time."
Zhuang Xiangwen?
Zhao Ming widened his eyes; what was this provincial judicial department director doing here?
Fang Jianguo felt uneasy in his heart; after all, Zhuang Xiangwen was his predecessor. It was only after Zhuang Xiangwen was transferred to the provincial level that he could become the deputy mayor.
This time, Mr. Ye's face also showed slight ripples, with what seemed to be a faint smile at the corners of his mouth.
Things seemed to be getting more and more interesting.
This Zhuang Xiangwen, his wife, called Qiong, was also a regular at the Die Qingcheng Club.
"Mr. Zhuang, you aren't here for Ren Feng too, are you?" Zhao Ming asked.
Zhuang Xiangwen was stunned, then nodded: "That's right, I heard you detained him, so I came here to see if you could do me a favor and release him."
Zhao Ming had a wry smile, and Fang Jianguo's face twitched a little.
"I've already checked, and Ren Feng hasn't committed any significant wrongdoings. Releasing him does not violate regulations."
Fang Jianguo dared not speak anymore; how could this Ren Feng have such great power?
A business president from Jiangnan City, a provincial judicial department director—this power exceeded his by far.
Zhao Ming was about to order Liao Zhang to release the person when suddenly there was a loud shout at the door.
"Who is Zhao Ming?"
Everyone was stunned and looked toward the door. What they saw was a man in a military uniform standing at the entrance.
Zhao Ming felt a jolt in his heart and hurriedly went up.
"Are you Zhao Ming?" the man scrutinized him.
"I am. May I ask your...?"
Before he could finish speaking, the man directly threw a certificate in his face.
"Damn it, seriously; the captain even gave the order for me to drop my task just to come here."
This man had a wild style all over him, and he didn't care about Xia Chuan Ye and the others. He simply grabbed a chair and sat down.
When Zhao Ming opened the man's certificate, he was so shocked that he nearly trembled.
"Dragon, Dragon Group?"
My God, who exactly is this Ren Feng they detained that could summon all these big shots?
Moreover, he just mentioned that it seemed like the captain himself made the call?
Zhao Ming was so frightened that his heart almost leaped out. They couldn't detain such a person; this wasn't a criminal; this was a deity.
Seeing Zhao Ming bringing the certificate, the man directly said, "Stop wasting time, quickly go and release that Ren Feng, I'm in a hurry."
Indeed, he came for him.
Mr. Ye already had astonishment in his eyes; military personnel also came?
Zhao Ming took a deep breath, was about to order, when yet another voice sounded.
"Mr. Zhao!"
Zhao Ming didn't know why, but now whenever he heard the words "Mr. Zhao," his body would tremble a bit.
Sure enough, it was another heavyweight.
This was also a man in a military uniform, who saluted and then said calmly, "I am the guard of Qian Ping, chief of the Jiangnan Military Region. May I ask who is Director Zhao?"
Members of the Jiangnan Military Region also came?
Fang Jianguo felt his heart also shudder along. He never expected that even people from the Jiangnan Military Region would come, my goodness.
Qian Ping, chief of the Jiangnan Military Region, whose wife, Xiaoyou, was a frequent visitor to the Die Qingcheng Club.
Zhao Ming only felt terrible today, with all these usually unreachable big shots now appearing one by one, and all for the same person.
Zhao Ming invited that person in, then had a bitter smile: "I know everyone is here for Ren Feng, rest assured, I'll have him released right away."
Zhao Ming called in a police officer to release the person, while Liao Zhang, seeing this scene, was already drenched in cold sweat.
My god, he had only arranged for Yuefeng to throw the person into D2 Prison yesterday, but today all these magnates came looking.
If something happened to Ren Feng, wouldn't he be doomed?
"Please wait a moment."
Zhao Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Being with these big shots, he felt his back was soaked with sweat.
As time passed by, the police officer who went to call for Ren Feng quickly returned.
"Where is he?"
Zhao Ming was a little puzzled.
"He said his shoulder is a bit uncomfortable and can't walk."
"What?"
Zhao Ming was dumbfounded; what kind of reason was this?
"Go get him out for me again."
The police officer had to go again, then quickly returned for the second time.
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, the police officer braced himself and said, "He said he fainted from hunger and is now lying in bed unable to move."
Zhao Ming was at a loss whether to cry or laugh. Mr. Ye spoke up at this point: "Since he can't move, let's go find him, then."
The Dragon Group's man frowned, "Is this the guy the captain told me to rescue?"
"Alright, Chen Qiang, you lead the way," Zhao Ming told the police officer to lead the way, then asked casually, "By the way, which prison is he in?"
"D2 Prison."
"What?"
Zhao Ming was stunned, "What did you say?"
"D, D2 Prison," Chen Qiang said with some fear.
"Damn it, who put him there? Why are you still dawdling? Hurry and lead the way!" Chen Ming suddenly cursed.
