Chapter 446 - 446 Who is the murderer found out_i
Jiang Xu sat up straight immediately upon hearing this, “Did that man confess?”
“No,” Liu Dahai said, “Didn’t you ask me to have someone keep an eye on those two foreigners?
Just now, my people reported that Qiao Buwu took the initiative to contact Zhang Xiaofeng.”
A cold light flashed in Jiang Xu’s eyes.
It seemed Qiao Buwu had also investigated him thoroughly.
Knowing some of his weaknesses.
He must be thinking that if Jiang Xu didn’t agree to cooperate, then he would turn to collaborate with Zhang Xiaofeng, attacking from other areas.
Indeed, those who achieved success could not possibly be fools.
Jiang Xu instructed Liu Dahai to continue the surveillance.
Even if Qiao Buwu did end up collaborating with Zhang Xiaofeng in the end, it didn’t matter.
If it came down to it, he would simply play a big game.
All sorts of ‘original songs,’ ‘original novels,’ he would mass produce them.
There were also many movies and dramas that would be a hit in the next few years.
“Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons,” “Goodbye Mr. Loser,” “The Richest Man in Xihong City,” and the like.
He would get them all out in advance.
In the face of absolute quality, all crooked tricks were as trivial as chickens and dogs made of clay.
Of course, Jiang Xu did not plan to use this tactic until it was the last resort.
As it was nearing midnight, An Nuonuo arrived.
She was carrying a meal box in her hand.
The weather was still very cold in March.
“Why did you come?” Jiang Xu stepped forward, clutching An Nuonuo’s ice-cold little hand, speaking with heartfelt concern.
The girl revealed a sweet smile, “I made chicken soup for you, hurry up and drink it.”
“Didn’t I tell you not to wait up and to go to sleep early if I’m not home at night?” Jiang Xu said with a hint of reproach in his voice.
“But when you’re not by my side, I can’t sleep peacefully-”
An Nuonuo only had to act slightly coy, and Jiang Xu couldn’t resist on the spot.
He opened the meal box.
Inside was golden chicken soup, exuding a rich aroma.
There were also ginseng, red dates, and the like.
It looked very appetizing at first glance.
Jiang Xu took a sip of the soup, which tasted sweet and delicious, and he felt warm all over instantly.
Seeing the look of satisfaction on Jiang Xu’s face, the girl smiled along, “This chicken was raised by my dad.”
“Hm?” Jiang Xu paused in drinking the soup, “Since when did my future father-in-law start raising chickens?”
“My dad bought a large chicken farm and made a series of renovations.
He said that in the future, the chickens raised on the farm will be fed only natural foods and have to be raised for a full year before they can be eaten.
He won’t sell to the public but will provide them only to family and friends.
Oh, my dad also bought a lot of fields, farms, and ranches.
In the future, we will only eat the food that we raise and grow ourselves.”
Jiang Xu nodded his head.
This was quite normal.
Wealthy people are like that, consuming food they produce themselves, pure and natural, free of pollution.
After Jiang Xu finished the chicken soup, An Nuonuo said she wanted to stay and keep him company and not leave.
Wang Zhang’s office was in a mess and not clean.
Jiang Xu wouldn’t let his girlfriend, who was like a beautiful flower, stay in such a place.
Although An Nuonuo was reluctant, she eventually left with a bit of disappointment.
Lately, the time Jiang Xu spent with her was getting less and less.
Yet she didn’t throw a childlike tantrum.
Everything Jiang Xu did was for her.
Time quickly arrived at March 13th.
Tomorrow, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo would set off to return to Jiang City.
The engagement had to take place with both parties in their hometown.
These days, Jiang Xu was so busy that his feet barely touched the ground.
He needed to keep an eye on the Mei Zhu mobile phone specialty store, and also had to grasp the overall direction of the entertainment industry.
As for the agreement with Qiao Buwu, there was still time. He could handle it after he came back from the engagement.
Liu Dahai called again, “Boss, he wants to see you, says he wants to talk terms!” Hearing this news, Jiang Xu didn’t hesitate to take An Nuonuo with him to the place where that man was being held.
In the prison, Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo, Liu Dahai, and two staff members were present.
Jiang Xu, looking through the glass at the man, said, “Speak, who really sent you?”
The man said, “Two conditions, you don’t prosecute me, and give me fifty million more. Agree, and I’ll tell you who’s behind this.”
Jiang Xu agreed without hesitation, “No problem.”
“Good, I’ll tell you, it’s the second largest shareholder of Century Jewelry, Li Yan.”
Jiang Xu frowned, “I don’t seem to have any grudges with him, do I?”
Regarding this Li Yan, he had only seen him once at a banquet last time.
A man just over forty, with unremarkable looks and seemingly harmless.
However, Jiang Xu didn’t just take his word for it, he asked for evidence.
“I have a recording of our conversation. Transfer the money into my overseas account, and then I’ll give you the recording.”
Jiang Xu said indifferently, “Start with ten million. Once we confirm the evidence is real, I’ll give you the rest.”
“Twenty million, that’s the lowest.”
“Fine, deal.”
After getting the man’s overseas account, Jiang Xu immediately transferred twenty million into it.
The man took out his phone to check and, seeing the transfer, his face lit up with joy.
He then revealed where he kept the evidence.
More than an hour later, the evidence was obtained.
They played the recording.
‘Til give you five million in cash, plus arrange for you to go abroad, to take care of An Nuonuo.”
“This person has an extraordinary identity, how did she provoke you?”
“You don’t need to worry about that, here’s her information.”
“Five million isn’t enough, add another three million.”
“Deal.”
The recording abruptly ended there.
Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo exchanged glances, filled with confusion.
Jiang Xu made a backup of the recording, the original was handed over to the officials.
As for the promise not to pursue the man’s responsibility,
Heh, sorry, this time Jiang Xu didn’t plan to keep his promise.
His future wife had almost been in a major incident, and Jiang Xu intended to let no one involved off the hook.
As for the twenty million that had been transferred, consider it a donation to the overseas bank.
That man should not count on having the chance to spend it.
Jiang Xu turned to Liu Dahai, “Go sue that man. At all costs, make sure he’s locked up for as long as possible.
Also, look into whether he has any past crimes.
If he does, let his crimes be compounded, and it would be best if he’s directly taken out.
And that Li Yan, I want you to use all available resources to investigate him. He must die!”
Towards the end, Jiang Xu’s tone had become ice-cold.
Liu Dahai nodded heavily, finally relaxing.
He had been so worried about this case recently, he could hardly eat or sleep.
He hadn’t even had time to visit several college girls he often frequented.
Tonight, he could finally go and comfort them properly.
He heard there were some fresh ones recently, he should also take the opportunity to sample them…
Meanwhile, Jiang Xu asked An Nuonuo to call Liu Yun and ask her where she was and if it was convenient to meet with them.
Some things needed to be asked face-to-face to make the next plan.
