10. Rats will
Although some things are very risky to do, it is still necessary to have the courage to try at this juncture, such as going to the prison to meet Bai Shijie.
Bai Shijie, known as the White Python Immortal, was sent to prison for a series of crimes such as murder and instigating murder. I don't know what the specific trial process was, and I don't know what the relationship between this kid and the backdoor was entrusted, anyway, he escaped the death penalty and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Whether it's more painful to die or more uncomfortable to live in prison for the rest of my life, I can't answer the question, but Bai Shijie is still alive may provide me with some valuable clues. And this trip to prison did bring me an unexpected reward.
There was no need to go through the back door, we met with Bai Shijie directly through the normal prison visit procedures. Because the purpose of our investigation is to clear Qiao Wei's name, I specially prepared a voice recorder to record the whole process of the investigation for evidence recording.
Although he has only been seen for a few months, Bai Shijie has aged a lot all of a sudden, and his former gray hair has now turned white. The appearance of Zhang Yuchi and I obviously surprised Bai Shijie, but as he sat down, his expression became calm.
Bai Shijie didn't ask us to come to see him, but thanked me, saying that he was ready to die when he stood in the courtroom, so the current day was more like a rebirth for him, although this rebirth day was not easy, but it made him look down on hatred and other things.
I congratulated Bai Shijie on his detachment, and then asked him if he knew anyone who could manipulate the White Snake and use the Southeast Asian curse runes.
Bai Shijie shook his head and said that he didn't know such a master, but there was a special person who came to see him in prison five days ago, and Bai Shijie didn't recognize that person, and the person didn't reveal his name and surname from beginning to end, only asked Bai Shijie about the duel with Qiao Wei the night before he was arrested.
According to Bai Shijie's description, that person is not good-looking, especially his eyes seem to have some eye diseases, his left eye is big and his right eye is very small, and the eyeball of the right eye of the trumpet is a little black, which feels like a prosthetic eye.
Maybe Bai Shijie doesn't remember that I once mentioned this person to him, but I won't forget this strange-looking guy, that is, the white python fairy who once instigated Shang Jiawen to kill people.
This big-eyed white python fairy can make a "Muggle" like Shang Jiawen learn to control ghosts, which shows how superb his own ghost control jishu is, and three days before Qiao Wei was framed, this white python fairy came to Bai Shijie to ask about Qiao Wei, and I naturally linked these two things together.
But there's one thing I can't figure out.
If the big and small eyed white python immortal was the one who framed Qiao Wei, then how could he have something to do with Huang Wulong and Longda Company? He's going to kill the executives of Ronda?
I put these incomprehensible questions aside for the time being, and asked Bai Shijie what else the big-eyed white python fairy had said.
Bai Shijie replied: "He asked me if I wanted to compete with that mixed-race kid again if I was given a chance to go out." ”
"And how do you answer?" I asked.
Bai Shijie smiled and said, "Sometimes it's enough to compete this thing only once. Although the half-breed kid is quite smart and talented, it is impossible for him to beat me with his current hard power, but in ten years, ......"
Bai Shijie didn't say anything, but his meaning was clearly expressed.
After leaving the prison, I asked Zhang Yuchi curiously, and Weishenme didn't talk to Bai Shijie.
Zhang Yuchi just said with a cold face that he didn't have anything to say to Bai Shijie, and when answering my question, his fists were clenched very tightly, as if he was holding back his strength for something. I guess it's probably because Bai Shijie has a high opinion of Qiao Wei, but he doesn't say a word about Zhang Yuchi in front of him, which makes Zhang Yuchi want to prove his strength very much.
Zhang Yu and I were late to Harbin at noon, and after a casual lunch, we found Huang Wulong's house according to the address Qiao Wei gave me.
After hearing that I was introduced by Qiao Wei, Huang Wulong immediately invited me and Zhang Yuchi into the house, and then asked Qiao Wei with great concern if Wei Weishenme had not come.
I told Huang Wulong about Qiao Wei getting into trouble because he was helping him investigate, and Huang Wulong immediately opened his mouth in surprise and asked me again how Qiao Wei was doing, as if he had begun to feel guilty.
I said that Qiao Wei was okay and that there was no need to worry, and then I got to the point of this time - who would hate the executives of Ronda.
Huang Wulong said: "I have been in business for so many years, I have made a lot of friends, and I have offended a lot of people, but I think I have never hurt anyone's family, and I should not have a big feud that needs to be killed and revenged." I also asked someone to check the few spells that Mr. Qiao helped me find last time, and there were no fingerprints or anything like that. In addition, there is no monitoring in the conference room of my office building, so there is no way to check it at all. ”
"Did the death of those three executives have a big impact on your company?" I asked.
"Great! It's too big! One is my marketing director, one is my actuary, and the other is the R&D director, and almost half of the company collapsed without me! ”
"Have you ever thought that this might not be revenge, but that your competitors are deliberately trying to bring down your company?" I asked again.
"Competitors? I'm afraid not. You probably don't know much about our industry, we are different from the general pharmaceutical companies, we do nutritional products, there is no single monopoly of this kind of thing, you choose to eat my family, you can also choose to eat other people at the same time, you can also ...... your own health at the same time"
"You can still make money, right?" I interrupted.
Huang Wulong was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes, you also have an understanding of the marketing model of direct selling?" ”
I do know about direct selling, because my mom was obsessed with it for a while, and he and a bunch of old ladies were researching this product today and that product tomorrow, Korean towels that can remove dirt from pores, high-tech cups that can filter tap water into nutritious drinks, and even plugs that can eliminate all household radiation!
With such a magical function, the price of these products is naturally expensive, a towel, a plug can be sold for nearly 100 yuan, a water cup can even be sold for thousands, and every time a product is sold, the seller can get a high return, and the seller of the online is also a rich reward.
In my mom's words, dropshipping has products, and it's not a lie; But in my opinion, there is no difference between direct selling and MLM at all, this is simply a pyramid fraud transaction, which is a pyramid scheme rat club.
So I didn't play any euphemism with Huang Wulong, and went straight to the point: "Why don't you help think about it, have you led anyone astray by making this direct selling company?" We are all people who understand, don't go around those useless bends, you should know the way here, once you take the road of pyramid selling, it will be difficult to come down again. ”
