Chapter 228 It’s to Set You Up
“Let’s go to the bank first.” Said by Wang Feng, walking out of the company.
“What are we going to do in the bank?” Hearing Wang Feng’s words, Gu Ping and Wu Jiayi all had a confused look on their faces.
“You don’t have to know now. I have something to do with the money.” Wang Feng opened his mouth and said in mystery.
Yet they didn’t have a say on Wang Feng’s decision of withdrawing money. Therefore, they went together to the nearest bank and withdrew 2 million RMB from it in total.
“Second brother, I assume you won’t be so stupid as to give them the money?” Gu Ping and Wu Jiayi were anxious to see Wang Feng withdraw so much money.
Wang Feng was a reliable and cautious person. Now was he rushing to give someone else money?
“Oh! You think I’m such a fool?” Hearing what they said, there was a sneer on Wang Feng’s lips. And then he said in a gloomy tone. “Since they want money, I’ll just smash him to death with it. What’s more, I’ll make him leave the office and ruin his reputation.”
“OK. We’ll follow you.” Seeing Wang Feng like this, they all knew he must have an idea. As long as he wasn’t so stupid as to give money to the harassers, all the things would be fine.
They went directly to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau in Qiong Yao City by car. On the way, Wang Feng asked Wu Jiayi to call the Director of the Bureau.
Having done all of it, Wang Feng let out a deep breath. He wouldn’t give the money to someone else easily because he earned it so hard. If someone wanted to get the money illegally by this evil way, Wang Feng would not let him make it.
How brazen they were to ask for 2 million?
Was there such an easy way to get money in the world? His company wouldn’t be such a doormat.
It took about 20 minutes for them to get to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Wu Jiayi went to park the car while Wang Feng and Gu Ping went straight in the door of it.
“Excuse me. I’m looking for Secretary Liu of the Director of the Bureau.” Wang Feng grabbed a staff member passing by and asked with a smile.
“Well. You can go upstairs to the Third Floor and turn left. Then you’ll see his office.” The staff member opened his mouth. There seemed to be nothing strange about the staff member.
“Thanks.” Wang Feng smiled at him and gave a wink at Gu Ping. Then they went up the stairs directly.
A while later, they found the office of the secretary. The secretary was so cool! How come a mere secretary could have an office of his own? Yet they gasped when they pushed the door open.
What the hell was this place? A secretary’s office? It was almost a royal palace!
It was grandly decorated, which cost probably no less than 500,000 RMB. No wonder he would ask for such an exorbitant price. He might have embezzled a lot of money.
Wang Feng always disdained those worms in the government, who lived off the tax paid by people but did nothing for them. This kind of people were actually the scum of society.
“What’s the matter with you? Why do you come in without knocking at the door? Haven’t I told you that you need to knock at the door before you enter?” Liu Xingguang, who sat in the leather chair, looked at the two people in anger after he saw Wang Feng and Gu Ping entered his office.
“You are Liu Xingguang, right?” Wang Feng directly asked his question, looking at the man who was about 30 years old.
“Yes, I am. Who are you?” Not until they called his name did Liu Xingguang realize that he couldn’t identify them in the entire Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
“I’m in charge of Xuefeng Real Estate. I bring you the money you want. Do you want to have a check?” Saying that, Wang Feng glanced at the big box carried by Gu Ping.
“Oh! There you are. Please have a seat.” Liu Xingguang’s unhappiness in his mind was thrown away immediately as he heard they were coming to give him money. He now treated them passionately as if they were his own parents.
“Well, it is not necessary to have a seat. I think you can check the money first.” Said coldly by Wang Feng.
Now Liu Xingguang was already carried away by his excitement so that he did not realize that Wang Feng’s tone was weird. It was two million. The money he asked for was in proportion to the strength of the company.
If the company had been located in the downtown, he wouldn’t have asked for such a high price. Because those people who could start a company in downtown, had a strong backer. He dared not provoke them.
The amount of money which he asked for depended on the person. Those whose companies were located in a battered place were neither rich nor powerful. Thus, it was an easy target for him to ask for so much money.
But to his surprise, the company could afford 2 million and it was even delivered here, which made his heart pound.
It was quite a huge sum of money, which was even more than he could get in a year by blackmailing here and there.
“Have some tea, please. This is authentic Xihu Longjing Tea that I asked someone to bring back from Hang Zhou. Just have a try.” Liu Xingguang poured the tea for them with a forced smile all over his face, which made Gu Ping and Wang Feng sneer in their mind.
Just a minute ago he was so despicable, but now he changed his attitude thoroughly and became so hospitable to them when hearing that they came with the money. How disgusting he was!
He indeed could do anything for money.
“Do you want the money or not? If not, we’ll just leave.” Wang Feng opened his mouth and said with more disdain.
“Of course, I want. How come I don’t want the money? It’s so kind for you to deliver the money in person. I feel so sorry, but you don’t need to worry. After getting your money, I can guarantee you that no one would make any trouble for you anymore in the future.” Said by Liu Xingguang with his guarantee, tapping on his chest.
“Really?” Hearing what he said, Wang Feng’s face became colder. There was originally nobody who wanted to make some trouble for them. How could he be so bare-faced to say that?
According to his tone, it seemed that he was giving them a big favor.
How could a mere secretary dare to ask them for 2 million? It was so bold.
“Alright. I don’t want to talk any more. Here is 2 million. Go to have a check for yourself first.” After Wang Feng opened his mouth, he put the suitcase on the table.
Liu Xingguang looked at the huge suitcase with a greedy look. Although he often took advantage of his position to get some pickings from others, it was the first time that he had seen so much money.
It was 2 million. He could hardly get so much money by working in this position for his whole life. These two people were definitely foolish.
“OK. Since you ask me to have a check, I’ll just go ahead to do it.” Liu Xingguang rubbed his hands with excitement and then unbuttoned the suitcase with his quivering hands.
The suitcase was filled with red banknotes withdrawn by Wang Feng from the bank just a while ago from the bank. It was exactly 2 million.
Seeing so much money all of a sudden, Liu Xingguang couldn’t stop making clicks. But later he became very excited because all the money belonged to him alone now.
He secretly glimpsed at the empty door. Then he started to count the money carefully.
Liu Xingguang couldn’t stop trembling his body with his hands skimming over the bills.
“Secretary Liu, I suggest that you should count faster. Otherwise you may be seen by others.” Said by Wang Feng with disdain to see his expression.
“Alright.” Knowing that it wasn’t a proper place to take the bribes, Liu Xingguang started to count the banknotes very quickly.
The banknotes were in bundles and neatly piled, so he finished it quite fast. After checking a few banknotes to make sure that it was real money, he started to speak earnestly. “Alright, I’ve checked all the money. Now you are free to leave.”
“Don’t you give us a receipt?” Asked by Wang Feng in shock.
“What receipt? Do you think I’ll eat my words? Come on, I work in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. How can I not keep my promise?”
“Since you say this, I will trust you.” Wang Feng smiled. Then he turned to Gu Ping and said. “Bro, take the money.”
“OK.” Gu Ping was nervous when seeing that the money was already in Liu Xingguang’s hands. But now, after he heard Wang’s words, he didn’t hesitate to follow Wang Feng’s order and took the suitcase from Liu Xingguang directly.
Liu Xingguang had been taking bribes and living a dissipated life for so many years. So his health was beaten up by alcohol and beauty. He couldn’t stand a single strike from Gu Ping, being faced with a loot of Gu Ping.
“Secretary Liu, I can tell you reliably that your political career comes to an end.” Wang Feng took out his phone from his pocket and showed it to Liu Xingguang.
“You set me up?” Seeing the phone in Wang Feng’s hand, Liu Xingguang finally realized. His face turned extremely hideous.
Therefore they were not here to deliver the money. Instead, they were here to set him up by this chance. And he was too stupid to be tricked. There was no doubt that the phone recorded all he said. If the recording was exposed, he might end up in jail and live a separated life forever, not to mention that his political career came to an end.
“Give me the phone.” Seeing the phone in Wang Feng’s hand, Liu Xingguang went straight for it without thinking.
But his strength was no rival to that of Wang Feng absolutely. Then he was kicked into the corner by Wang Feng and let out a wail.
“Secretary Liu, you should do some preparation before blackmailing my company. You are digging your own grave to blackmail me without knowing who I am.” Wang Feng sneered, which made Secretary Liu much crazier.
“I’m going to fight you today.” Liu Xingguang roared and pounced on him like a crazy bull.
“Do you think you deserve my fight?” Wang Feng sneered and made a heavier kick which landed on Liu Xingguang’s face directly and left a huge red footprint.
“I’m going to kill you.” Liu Xingguang was beaten up badly twice by Wang Feng. But since Wang Feng had the evidence, Liu Xingguang rushed to him once again.
The recording on his phone would determine his future. Once it was exposed, he might suffer harder to live than to die. He had been threatening others for such a long time and he never thought he was in the reverse position now.
“Stop it!” As Liu Xingguang pounced crazily, there came a stately voice at the door in a sudden, which made Liu Xingguang have to stop.
“Brother-in-law, help me!” Recognizing who was coming, Liu Xingguang shouted out suddenly, as if a drowning person grabbed a straw which could save his life.
“Shut up.” Hearing what his brother-in-law just shouted. Jing Yi could not stop getting angry, which subdued the scene all of a sudden.
He received a phone call from a stranger before, reporting that someone took a bribe in the bureau. Therefore, he had to give up an important dinner to rush back here hurriedly.
“Hello, sir. I’m the director here. You can talk to me directly if there is any question.” Jing Yi stopped his brother-in-law and said to Wang Feng with a professional smile.
