Chapter 15: Take the opportunity to get out
"It should be a chance for the two of us!"
Tang Huang said solemnly: "Xiao Yang, you are a smart person. Peng Xiaodong was killed, and his father, Peng Zhengming, would definitely do whatever it took to avenge his only son. And Peng Zhengming's move will inevitably implicate a wide range of people. I now suspect that the Haizhou City Procuratorate and the Anti-Corruption Bureau are investigating Peng Zhengming, and there may be other hidden motives! ”
Yang Cheng lowered his head and pondered for a while, his face gradually turned solemn, and he asked, "What do you mean by saying that the Haizhou City Procuratorate and the Anti-Corruption Bureau are cooperating with someone to act?" ”
Tang Huang nodded and said, "Peng Xiaodong died too strangely. If Peng Zhengming is really investigated by the procuratorate and the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and suddenly kills Peng Zhengming's only son at this time, who do you think will be in the best interest of doing so? ”
"Boss, are you thinking too much?"
Yang Cheng stared at him a little puzzled and asked, "This officialdom is not something we can participate in if we want to." ”
"It's not that I think too much, but I have to think more!"
Tang Huang said happily without hesitation: "If I didn't know about this, or if you weren't implicated in this big case, of course I wouldn't think much about it." The problem now is that you are not only involved in the criminal case of Peng Xiaodong's murder, but also in the more complex political/struggle case.
Xiao Yang, haven't you really seriously thought about why the captain Li of the criminal police team didn't take you back to the police station to record a confession, but took you to meet the deputy director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau surnamed Zhao? ”
"I thought about it, but I didn't dare to think deeply." Yang Cheng nodded, then shook his head again and said, "Boss, I ......"
"Xiao Yang, no matter what you think, you have already participated." Tang Huang interrupted Yang Cheng's words and said in a serious and long-hearted manner: "This case can no longer be transferred by your personal will. What you need to do now is how to minimize the risk that this case poses to you and try to turn a bad thing into a good thing. ”
Speaking of this, Tang Huang took out a pack of soft Chinese cigarettes, handed one to Yang Cheng, lit another one for himself, and continued while smoking: "We can try to analyze it. The most direct consequence of killing Peng Xiaodong is obviously to completely anger his father Peng Zhengming. And what kind of consequences will it have if Peng Zhengming is angered? This answer is not difficult to answer, it is a fish that dies and the net is broken, and both sides lose! ”
"You mean someone wants to upset the political and ecological balance of Haizhou City, or even Jiangnan Province?" Yang Cheng frowned and asked.
"Can you name the word political ecological balance, Xiao Yang, it seems that the three vice presidents of the student union of the school did not work in vain during your time in college." Tang Huang looked at Yang Cheng with approving eyes and praised: "Only by mixing the water can you fish well." The officialdom of our Haizhou City has always been monolithic, and the needle cannot be inserted or splashed with water. If you want to pry the political iron curtain in Haizhou City, the only way is to let Haizhou officialdom fight in the nest and mess with itself. ”
"Boss, even if there is turmoil in Haizhou officialdom, it doesn't seem to be good for you and your company." Yang Cheng shook his head unmoved.
"I still say the same thing, wealth and danger are sought!" Tang Huang said categorically: "If we can take the first step to pull out the fog and see the direction of wind fluctuations before the big earthquake occurs in Haizhou officialdom, we can choose the camp that is most beneficial to us." Investing in politics can yield far greater returns than investing in any other project. ”
Tang Huang said this, if Yang Cheng still couldn't understand the intentions of his boss, then it would really be an elm head.
Obviously, Tang Huang wanted to engage in political speculation.
"Boss, big rewards come with big risks." Yang Cheng kindly reminded: "You are a businessman, and if you are not careful, you may be swallowed by someone to the point that there are no bones left." ”
"Doing business in my country, if you don't have a strong political backer and background, if you want to become bigger and stronger, it's an empty word!"
Tang Huang was obviously determined, and looked at Yang Cheng very sincerely and said, "Xiao Yang, I hope you can help me!" ”
Yang Cheng took out the lighter and lit the cigarette, took two puffs hard, as if he had finally made a difficult decision, looked at his boss calmly, and asked indifferently, "How do you want me to help?" ”
"Tell me everything you know and what you know, I mean nothing is missing!" Tang Huang said resolutely with earnest eyes.
"How do you tell I'm hiding something from the police?" Yang Cheng asked with obvious curiosity.
"With my understanding of how you have behaved in the company over the years." Tang Huang smiled and said, "You have always been cautious in doing things, and you are not leaky in what you say and do. With your character, I don't believe you can't see the huge risks hidden in the murder of Peng Xiaodong, and you must have a backhand! ”
Of course I have a backhand, but this backhand must not be completely out of you, the old fritters in the shopping mall.
Yang Cheng muttered in his heart, but his face was calm and said slowly: "I can see the facial features and appearance of one of the murderers. I can sketch a portrait of the murderer. If the police get the portrait, they can quickly locate the killer. ”
Tang Huang was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked happily: "You mean, you didn't draw the portrait of the murderer last night and hand it over to the police and the anti-corruption bureau?" ”
"If I really draw this portrait and hand it over to the police, I'm afraid that someone will really kill me." Yang Cheng smiled indifferently: "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. I don't want to set myself on fire. ”
"You have an offer." Tang Huang replied to his usual calmness, looked at Yang Cheng calmly and said, "You sell me the portrait." The portrait is in my hands, and even if the murderer gets the news, they will only come to me, not you. Not only will you be able to get rid of a potentially big/nuisance, but you will also be able to get a sum of money. ”
"How old are you?" Yang Cheng asked seriously with interest.
"How much do you think this portrait is worth?" Tang Huang kicked the ball back to Yang Cheng again.
"It depends on what happens to this portrait." Yang Cheng smiled very slippery: "If the portrait of the murderer is handed over to Peng Zhengming, in order to avenge his son, I believe that this Secretary Peng should be willing to spend a lot of money." ”
"Then Secretary Peng has to believe that this portrait is painted with the real murderer." Tang Huang smiled lightly: "In this extraordinary period, the threshold of Secretary Peng's family is not something that anyone can enter. ”
Yang Cheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then asked very seriously: "Boss, are you sure you are really not afraid of trouble?" ”
The old god Tang Huang smiled on the ground and said: "It's my business if Ma doesn't bother, Xiao Yang, you don't have any scruples, you sell me the portrait of the murderer, it will be beneficial to you and no harm." ”
Yang Cheng didn't answer, but pondered in his heart what the boss in front of him wanted to do after getting the portrait of the murderer.
As Tang Huang said just now, handing over the portrait of the murderer to him, Yang Cheng can indeed save a lot of worry. The only thing Yang Cheng needs to consider is whether his boss may have something to do with the murderer.
Yang Cheng can conclude that Tang Huang will not hand it over to the police after getting the portrait. As for whether Tang Huang will use the portrait of this murderer as a stepping stone to his relationship with Peng Zhengming, Yang Cheng can't judge it now.
Judging from Tang Huang's reactions after learning the news that Peng Xiaodong was killed in a car accident last night, Yang Cheng estimated that it was very unlikely that Tang Huang had a relationship with the murderer.
As long as Tang Huang and the murderer are not all the way, then handing over the portrait of the murderer to him is undoubtedly Yang Cheng's best choice at present.
