Although the members of Lin Xiao's working group in Charter City were all brought directly from the capital, they lived here, and they also had to deal with the locals.

As long as there are people, right and wrong are inevitable, and they live on someone else's territory, so it is naturally impossible to achieve absolute secrecy, so it is not impossible for Meng Mingqi to get some instructions through some channel.

Now judging from Meng Mingqi's performance, Lin Xiao's speculation should be accurate.

As for who brought the news to Meng Mingqi, Lin Xiao didn't care very much, because he knew very well that this person's status was not necessarily very high, and it was precisely because of his low status that no one paid attention to it, so he was able to approach Meng Mingqi without being noticed.

The most critical thing is to find out the characters behind Meng Mingqi in order to fundamentally solve this problem.

"Anyway, this can be regarded as a move to unload the mill and kill the donkey......" Lin Xiao looked at Meng Mingqi, with a look of pity on his face, "Could it be that he has threatened you with the safety of your family's life?" Otherwise, I really can't think of any reason to let you give up your life? ”

Lin Xiao guessed correctly, although Meng Mingqi was a figure that Gong Shaoqiu picked up, but he was just a department-level cadre, and it was estimated that he couldn't get involved in too core things, so the only reason why he suddenly wanted to commit suicide was that he should secretly take care of the Gong family's properties in Charter City.

If there is something wrong with Meng Mingqi's side, it may directly threaten Gong Shaoqiu's body, which is different from the problem of Gong Shaoqiu and his son Gong Xiaohuang.

Gong Xiaohuang's problem may only be regarded as his own problem, it has an impact on Gong Shaoqiu, but it will not be fatal, but Meng Mingqi is different, as Gong Shaoqiu's former secretary, he may also have some core secrets of Gong Shaoqiu in Charter City, if something happens to him, it will directly affect Gong Shaoqiu.

Listening to Lin Xiao's words, Meng Mingqi's face changed.

Obviously, Lin Xiao said what he had in mind, if it weren't for that, even if he could embezzle hundreds of millions, he might not necessarily need to pay for it with his life, right? In the officialdom, these characters are not really provoking people who should not be provoked, under normal circumstances, it is still possible to avoid death.

Especially those with huge amounts of corruption, in fact, it is easier to survive, and the specific operation method is naturally carried out behind the scenes, hundreds of millions can be sentenced to hundreds of thousands, which is not difficult to operate.

With interests, it is easier to impress others, so once a corrupt official embarks on this road, he will put money in his pocket without his life, not to say that he needs so much money, but because at the most critical time, the more money he is greedy, the easier it is to save his life.

However, for Meng Mingqi, he obviously does not have this qualification, so if something happens to him, it is other people's money that he will lose, so the owner of the money will naturally be unwilling, so there is something that threatens the safety of his family and is used to force him to commit suicide.

Lin Xiao is not an ordinary person, he actually has a lot of knowledge about these things, so he can tell Meng Mingqi's thoughts in one bite.

"You think too much, I just don't want to live anymore." Meng Mingqi looked away and replied a little stiffly.

"Hehe, you think it's too simple, can you say that if you follow their minds, you can keep your family safe?" Lin Xiao laughed for a moment, and then asked rhetorically, "How do you know that even if your master doesn't do it, no one else will do it from them?" ”

When Meng Mingqi heard this, he was immediately stunned.

He really didn't expect this situation that Lin Xiao said, and now he suddenly thought that since someone could take advantage of his family's safety and threaten him to keep it secret, then naturally there would be people who would control his family in the same way, so as to achieve their own goals, just like those things that Lin Xiao was talking about now.

In this way, Meng Mingqi was a little hesitant, he knew a lot of dark things in officialdom, and he couldn't rule out whether the implied meaning in Lin Xiao's statement would really be made?

"All in all, it's not up to you to decide which step this case will go to." Lin Xiao glanced at Meng Mingqi and said categorically, "Gong Shaoqiu is on my must-kill list, and the people behind him can't run away, you don't need to be a substitute for him at all, it's not worth it, and you can't save your family!" ”

When Meng Mingqi heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, even if Lin Xiao was the leader of the working group and received a cold reception here in Charter City, but what mortal enmity did Gong Shaoqiu have between him and him?

How could he look at Lin Xiao's posture, almost to put Gong Shaoqiu to death?

That sounds a little hard to believe.

Meng Mingqi hesitated, and then heard Lin Xiao say again, "I will leave for the capital in the evening, if I don't get a satisfactory answer, what will happen to it, I think you can guess." ”

Between the lines, although Lin Xiao did not mention a single word, it was a threat to Meng Mingqi's family, but Meng Mingqi knew that this was what Lin Xiao meant, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.

Although things in officialdom basically talk about a disaster that doesn't hurt his family, but now in this year, there are too many people who have no discipline and no bottom line, especially in officialdom, if Lin Xiao is also this kind of person, he really has no way to guarantee that Lin Xiao will not attack his family.

"Did I say that my family would be able to stay out of the way?" Meng Mingqi thought about it and couldn't help but ask.

When the staff next to him heard this, they couldn't help but feel refreshed, he knew very well that Meng Mingqi was already on the verge of surrender, as long as he took one step further, Lin Xiao would win.

The key question is, can Lin Xiao dispel Meng Mingqi's concerns with one sentence and let him tell the inside story of the matter?

"You just need to say your hole cards, and I can take the opponent directly in ten minutes! Not to mention the deputy department, even if it is the deputy department, it still can't stop my plan! Lin Xiao waved his hand and replied categorically.

Then Lin Xiao changed his words and said to him again, "Actually, I don't have to be so troublesome, as long as I show a little bit of tone, just say that you have already explained some problems, what do you think your master will do?" ”

When Meng Mingqi heard this, his face suddenly changed.

He really didn't think about this problem, if Lin Xiaozhen did this, it would indeed be a ruinous exercise, and Meng Mingqi's family would definitely suffer under Gong Shaoqiu, who was not in the investigation.

"Well, I say, I hope you'll keep your word." Meng Mingqi was silent for two minutes, and finally made up his mind, "If it weren't for my family, I would rather die than offend those people, they are really capable of doing a lot of things." ”

Lin Xiao nodded and said, "Many people claim to be omnipotent, and it turns out that they all overestimate themselves. You can rest assured that your safety, the safety of your family, from now on, will be my responsibility. ”

This is a gesture that Lin Xiao must make, otherwise, who can still believe his words and do things for him?

The problem of Charter City is indeed more serious, but where is the root cause, Lin Xiao has not been able to enter.

If it weren't for the sudden suicide of Meng Mingqi, or if Lin Xiao hadn't realized that among these people, there was actually a figure of great significance to the Gong family's father and son, and he found a solution to the problem.

"Actually, the main reason why Gong Shaoqiu can have such a big influence in Charter City is because he has a huge money laundering network here!" Meng Mingqi pondered for a while, and finally told Lin Xiao the truth of the matter.

"Money laundering networks?" When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback.

For money laundering, in fact, Lin Xiao is not very unfamiliar, in fact, some big political and wealthy families in China, when needed, occasionally do this kind of thing, but relatively speaking, they control the general trend, so they can make this kind of thing seem reasonable.

It's just that Lin Xiao didn't expect that Gong Shaoqiu would be able to create a money laundering network in Charter City.

"Gong Shaoqiu has no ability to engage in construction, but pondering these crooked and evil things is self-taught." Meng Mingqi explained to Lin Xiao, "I am the general contact person of his money laundering network in Charter City, and in the past few years, he has laundered more than 20 billion yuan through this network. ”

"What?!" When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, obviously he didn't expect that a small charter city would be run by Gong Shaoqiu into such a huge money laundering base.

This incident really surprised him.

Meng Mingqi didn't feel strange when he saw Lin Xiao's reaction, it was really Gong Shaoqiu and the others who played in Charter City, which was indeed a bit shocking.

In fact, the money laundering network operated by Gong Shaoqiu and others is not very complicated, and they also launder money through import and export trading companies, which is not uncommon in China.

Their classic practice is to overstate the price of imported equipment and raw materials at the time of import, pay foreign suppliers in the form of high commissions, discounts, etc., and then take kickbacks from them, share the stolen money, and keep the illegal gains abroad.

At the time of export, the price of the exported goods is greatly depressed, or the invoice amount is far lower than the actual transaction amount, and the difference in the payment is deposited by the foreign importer into the exporter's account abroad.

If you are brave enough, you can consider setting up a personal account directly with an overseas bank.

In this way, it is not surprising that the overseas branches of some state-owned enterprises have basically evolved into professional money laundering centers.

In addition, there are also agents or children and relatives who have emigrated overseas to launder black money by running a leather bag company.

If the competent authorities send someone to investigate, they will get some strange reasons for the loss.

As for the next consequence, it is even more legendary, the heads of some so-called loss-making companies and their relatives have become rich people within a few years, and they have become happy overseas "investment immigrants".

At the same time, the amount of foreign exchange illegally held by these Chinese-funded companies in their overseas accounts far exceeds the amount controlled by the state foreign exchange management department.

It should be pointed out that the protagonists in this process are those corrupt officials who are complicit.

"I didn't expect them to be bold enough......" Lin Xiao couldn't help but gasp after listening to Meng Mingqi's explanation.

Because Lin Xiao immediately realized that such a big scene was definitely not something that Gong Shaoqiu could handle alone.

Behind him, there is definitely a more complex network of relationships, they are the same interest group.
