Chapter 378 Selling Off Assets
"Do you have anyone you suspect in this matter? If someone is really determined to get you, they wouldn't just produce a document as a warning."
Upon hearing the news, Mayor Qin merely frowned slightly, showing little concern.
In his view, even if something really happened, it would just be Wu Kangping's bad luck, and he doubted that Wu Kangping would have the guts to get involved.
"After much thought, I realized that although I have offended many people over the years, I have kept those key pieces of evidence very well hidden and concealed them extremely well."
If they were truly capable of finding out, as you said, they would have already taken action against me.
Now that the other party has presented the evidence directly, it's more like a warning to me.
I suspect the problem might lie with that medication.
As Wu Kangping spoke, he secretly glanced up to observe Mayor Qin's reaction.
Upon hearing this, Mayor Qin's gaze sharpened as he looked directly at Wu Kangping.
Although Mayor Qin was much younger than Wu Kangping, his sharp aura still gave Wu Kangping a sudden shock.
For a moment, the room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Wu Kangping could even clearly hear his own heart pounding, and his palms were sweating with nervousness.
"You mean, you think this is a warning from the other side? I told you to get your hands on that drug and investigate whether it's really that miraculous. Now it seems you've messed it up?"
Mayor Qin's voice carried a clear sense of accusation. He had assigned the task to Wu Kangping because he thought Wu was quite clever, but now not only had it not yielded any results, he had also been outmaneuvered.
"Mayor Qin, this really isn't my fault! I never imagined the person behind this was so powerful. You have to save me! Everything I did was under your orders, you can't just stand by and watch me die!"
If this evidence is exposed, Shengtai Pharmaceutical will be completely finished!
Wu Kangping was used to being domineering in Yue City and still used the same tough methods as before. He didn't expect to run into a brick wall this time.
He was clearly terrified by the document, and his speech was somewhat incoherent.
After all, it would be hard for anyone to stay calm if they were in this situation.
"Are you blaming me?"
Mayor Qin's voice was icy, and his eyes were full of warning as he looked at Wu Kangping.
These words startled Wu Kangping, making him shudder and instantly sober up.
He knew in his heart that this information could indeed put Shengtai Pharmaceutical in dire straits, but Mayor Qin in front of him could also easily ruin Shengtai Pharmaceutical's future.
In the eyes of powerful figures like Mayor Qin, these businessmen were nothing more than pawns to be manipulated.
If a piece becomes useless, it can be replaced in no time.
Wu Kangping quickly came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Mayor Qin, I absolutely did not mean that! What I meant was that, according to the previous examination report, the medicine is most likely effective."
I just sent someone to buy the medicine, and I didn't expect them to give me such a warning so soon. The person behind this is probably someone I can't handle. I'll follow your instructions completely.
Wu Kangping's words of humbly admitting defeat extinguished Mayor Qin's anger perfectly.
Mayor Qin values two things: ability and obedience.
No matter how capable a disobedient person is, they are just a pawn to him. Only those who can be used by him are what he truly needs.
“Go and find out who’s behind this. I want to talk to him. Start with the patient’s family. They’re willing to give her such good medicine, so their relationship with this family must be special.”
"If you fail to handle this well again, don't come to see me again." Mayor Qin coldly ordered.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely get things done!" Wu Kangping didn't dare to linger and rushed out to investigate.
He knew in his heart that he had been careless before, and this time he had to get serious.
After Wu Kangping left, the serious expression on Qin Shixian's face gradually disappeared.
Just as he had guessed, things were indeed complicated by the drug.
However, he still coveted the medicine's effects. If he could control the medicine, he could bring greater benefits to the Qin family.
Just as Mayor Qin was still deep in thought, his secretary walked in again.
"Is there anything else?" Mayor Qin asked.
"It was a call from home. They said they can't reach the Second Young Master. Tang Dahai, who had dinner with him last night, is still unconscious. Now that they can't reach him, something terrible must have happened," the secretary reported cautiously.
"Where's Xu Dong? Wasn't he sent to protect Mo Feng?" Mayor Qin pressed.
"We can't get through to Xu Dong either." The secretary lowered her head, her voice even softer.
Upon hearing that even Xu Dong could not be contacted, Mayor Qin became truly anxious and immediately arranged for people to investigate.
"Don't let the old man know about this." Mayor Qin added this extra instruction, mindful of his grandfather's poor health.
Mayor Qin could no longer sit still and made several phone calls in succession.
Despite Mayor Qin's usual rational and calm demeanor, he is actually a complete brother-obsessed man.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have allowed Qin Mofeng to amass wealth in Yue City under his name.
Mayor Qin is a man who cherishes his reputation very much, and Qin Mofeng is undoubtedly his Achilles' heel.
The thought that someone might dare to target Qin Mofeng, possibly because they were after him, sent a series of suspicious names flashing through Mayor Qin's mind.
No matter who is behind this, he will not let anyone who dares to touch his brother get away with it.
At this moment, Qin Mofeng was in a very miserable situation. His legs were broken, and he was in so much pain that he was sweating profusely and his face was deathly pale.
Like his brother, he harbored a burning desire for revenge, determined to settle scores with the other party.
Unfortunately, Tian Zhenzhen would never give him that chance.
Tian Zhenzhen was also busy that day. She went to Tang Dahai's property to complete the handover task.
Because Tang Dahai was still unconscious, his men tried to resist during the handover, but they were easily subdued by Tian Zhenzhen's men.
Tang Dahai's business interests are wide-ranging, including the jade industry, some construction industries, entertainment, and gambling industries.
Tian Zhenzhen had little interest in these industries and did not intend to arrange for anyone to manage them. In her view, the best way was to sell these industries and convert them directly into cash.
At first, some people were wary of Tang Dahai's background and dared not take over easily.
However, seeing that Tang Dahai remained unconscious and that the huge pie was too tempting, it wasn't long before Tian Zhenzhen arranged for someone to successfully sell off the assets that originally belonged to Tang Dahai.
The violet ornament was returned to Tian Zhenzhen's hands. Without lingering, she delivered it directly to Baoruitang.
As for Feng Xue and Liu Shan, Tian Zhenzhen not only made them compensate for the vehicle damage, but also held them accountable for stealing the jewelry.
In the end, both families were driven to bankruptcy.
Of course, Tian Zhenzhen only needed to give these instructions, and someone would naturally take care of everything for her.
Tian Zhenzhen did not punish Gu Shang and his son.
It wasn't that she was soft-hearted, but rather that she worried that if the father and son suddenly disappeared, Jiang Xue's romantic obsession would never be cured.
Why not let Jiang Xue continue to entangle with them and suffer some setbacks? Maybe that will even cure her "illness".
