Chapter 341 Special Operation
Wang Tongshan couldn't help but ask, "Your company..."
Zheng Kaiyang gave a bitter laugh, "It's finished!"
After saying those words, Zheng Kaiyang felt he had aged ten years.
It could be said that, with the trouble he was in, the consequent series of compensation issues would probably not be covered even if he sold all the company and personal assets.
In other words, just like his brother-in-law, he had been made penniless by Xu Yang.
Originally, he had thought that with his wide network of connections in Fengcheng, he could deal with anything and Xu Yang couldn't do much to him.
But he hadn't expected Xu Yang's methods to be so sharp, they directly killed his company.
Wang Tongshan consoled him, "If it's over, then it's over. Once this is behind us, I'll give you some money, and then you can start another enterprise."
Zheng Kaiyang ground his teeth and said, "We can talk about another enterprise later. Right now, the most important thing is that I need to destroy Xu Yang, that son of a bitch!"
Wang Tongshan nodded, "Of course, we must take that kid down. Otherwise, others will think we Fengcheng folks are easy to bully. It would be a heavy blow to all the tycoons of Fengcheng."
After saying this, he took out a pen, signed the joint statement and while signing said, "Let's get Liang Zi out first!"
Everyone nodded and also reached for their pens, ready to sign on behalf of their bosses.
Such a statement didn't involve property, so it was fine for the assistants to sign on behalf.
But before they could even start signing, the door to the meeting room was pushed open.
A few police officers walked in.
The leading officer scanned the room, his gaze landing on Wang Tongshan, and he made his way directly to him, "Wang Tongshan, you are suspected of illegally occupying state property and intentionally injuring others. Come with us to assist in the investigation!"
What!
Upon hearing this, Wang Tongshan's face drastically changed.
What's happening, why have the police come to arrest me?
Did Xu Yang dig up some dirt on me, find evidence and give it to the police?
But even if he had given it to the police, there were people in the Fengcheng police force who were mine, so why did no one notify me?
"Take him away!" The square-faced police officer gestured grandly, and two young officers immediately stepped forward and handcuffed Wang Tongshan.
It wasn't until he was cuffed that Wang Tongshan snapped back to reality, struggling and shouting, "What evidence do you have to arrest me? You are abusing your power, let me go!"
The square-faced officer sneered, "Abusing power? Do you think we would come to arrest you without any evidence?"
Wang Tongshan continued to struggle, "Impossible, you are not from Fengcheng police, I've never seen you, you're not in Fengcheng police system!"
Wang Tongshan had an impression of every team-leading officer, but he had no recollection of this one.
The officer gave a faint smile, "I'm not from Fengcheng. I've just been sent down from the provincial city because the issues in Fengcheng are serious and have caught the provincial city's attention. I've investigated you, you have connections in the Fengcheng police system, aren't you curious why no one tipped you off?
I can tell you that those people have already been taken away by the disciplinary department."
What!
Wang Tongshan's eyes widened, and his legs went weak; had it not been for the police holding him up, he would have certainly collapsed to the ground.
His brashness stemmed from his connections within the police system.
Thanks to those connections, many of his deeds went unchecked.
Even if some people with a sense of justice wanted to interfere, he could be notified in advance to prepare.
Now, these people were from the provincial city.
As long as they had evidence, all his methods would be useless.
"Take him away!"
The square-faced officer gestured grandly again and took Wang Tongshan away.
The meeting room became silent as a grave, you could hear a pin drop.
They all knew a little about Wang Tongshan's dealings.
Because he had connections and covered his tracks well, the police weren't able to touch him.
This time, people had come directly from the provincial city.
All the connections Wang Tongshan had were now being invited for tea by the disciplinary committee.
The connections of Wang Tongshan were also those of the other tycoons.
After all, the tycoons of Fengcheng were a community of shared interests.
In other words, from this moment on, their boss's connections within the police had been completely severed.
Needless to say, it was Xu Yang's doing.
What baffled them, however, was how Xu Yang managed to do it.
The people who arrested Liang Wujun were from the armed police of the provincial city, and those who arrested Wang Tongshan were policemen sent from the provincial city.
Even the network of Fengcheng's magnates had been dismantled.
How did Xu Yang accomplish this?
This left them utterly confounded.
Actually, it was quite simple.
Xu Yang had sent a large amount of evidence to the provincial government.
Many of the things that Fengcheng's rich had done were simply shocking and crazed.
The provincial government's top brass was enraged and immediately set up a special task force to handle the matter.
At the same time, they contacted Xu Yang.
Because this time, Xu Yang had sent the evidence under his real name.
After discussions between the two parties, a joint operation plan was devised.
It could be said that Xu Yang now functioned almost like a special consultant to the provincial government's special task force.
Xu Yang took care of the financial matters,
while the task force handled the arrests.
Xu Yang's only requirement was that they should follow his lead on when to take action.
The task force had no objections to this.
After all, the success of this operation hinged on the evidence uncovered by Xu Yang.
Without that evidence, they couldn't have brought these crazed magnates to justice or rooted out their protective umbrellas.
For them, it was a great achievement as well.
Therefore, they naturally wouldn't quibble over these issues.
After all, these people were already under their surveillance and couldn't escape.
As for the men in black at the hotel, they were naturally the task force's operatives.
Xu Yang had come to Fengcheng with Jiang Zhiyong and some security personnel.
This was to prevent the Fengcheng magnates from turning desperate and making clandestine moves.
But since those people were so openly liable for arrest, it made sense to let the task force's operatives make the move.
...
Just then, the door of the conference room was pushed open again.
Hearts skipped a beat, thinking the police had arrived again to arrest someone else.
So everyone looked towards the doorway, only to be taken aback at seeing the newcomer.
The newcomer turned out to be Xu Yang.
Xu Yang's name was known to all.
In the room, aside from Zheng Kaiyang, were all young assistants.
These people had all seen pictures of Xu Yang online and knew what he looked like.
Nobody expected Xu Yang to actually show up.
What was Xu Yang here for?
"What are you here for?" Zheng Kaiyang asked, voicing the question in everyone's minds with a gloomy face.
"Heh, just taking a look at you all," Xu Yang chuckled and unapologetically sat down beside Zheng Kaiyang, in the seat that used to belong to Wang Tongshan.
"That is not your place, get up from there!" Zheng Kaiyang said sternly.
Xu Yang ignored him, scanned the room, and said, "I once warned Wang Tongshan not to get involved in this matter, but he wouldn't listen to me. He thought I was joking. Now, well, he should believe me, only it's too late to believe now."
Everyone shifted their gaze and remained silent.
