Chapter 704 - 336: Liu Qiang’s Revenge, Qiu Lizhen’s Crisis!
The first piece of intelligence revealed something worth 12 million.
Today can be considered a great start.
As for the affair between Jiang Xingguo and the village women’s federation director...
Jiang Tao just chuckled to himself, not bothering to pay attention.
This matter has nothing to do with him financially.
Jiang Tao focused his thoughts on the word "mid-mountain" in the intelligence.
Soon, an image of a towering mountain appeared on his retina.
"It’s West Forest Mountain..."
As a native of Jiang Family Manor, Jiang Tao
instantly recognized the mountain from the image.
West Forest Mountain is about more than 5,000 meters away from Jiang Family Manor.
Every year when Jiang Tao was young, he would go to West Forest Mountain with friends to pick sour dates.
Since his hometown Ping County is typically mountainous, it has no shortage of mountains.
Therefore, West Forest Mountain is somewhat famous around Jiang Family Manor,
but it doesn’t mean much in the larger Ping County.
And it’s entirely unknown compared to those famous mountains and rivers nationwide.
So, West Forest Mountain remains an undeveloped wild mountain to this day.
"It’s a bit tricky. The intelligence only shows that mountain but doesn’t give the specific coordinates of the meteorite."
"Twelve million and change! It’s worth the trip back home."
"Treat it as a business trip."
"Meanwhile, bring along those employees Jiang Xingguo helped recruit for me."
After reading the first piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao quickly made up his mind.
Going back home to pick up 12 million, who wouldn’t want that!
"Continue, next one."
Jiang Tao focused, refreshing the next piece of intelligence.
[Today’s Intelligence 02]:
You had contact with Qiu Lizhen yesterday and obtained related intelligence—
The lottery player Liu Qiang, after learning the ticket he sold to you won, felt extremely unbalanced inside.
He plans to go to the store at 8:45 AM today with a knife to demand the winning lottery ticket from Qiu Lizhen and act irrationally.
...
"Liu Qiang? Coming with a knife?"
Seeing the content of the second piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
He had thought that the man who resold him the lottery would regret and feel imbalanced after knowing of the win.
But he never expected the person to be so extreme!
Coming with a knife!
Acting irrationally!
Seeing these two descriptions highlighted in bold red in the intelligence,
Jiang Tao felt a bit worried for the big sister Qiu Lizhen he had just recently met and who was extremely warm to him.
This matter, to speak, has many ties to himself.
Pretending ignorance and staying out of it, Jiang Tao really couldn’t do such a thing.
"What to do? Tell Qiu Lizhen this news, so she can stay as far away as possible?"
"But then, fleeing the first wouldn’t avoid the fifteenth, she can’t avoid Liu Qiang for the rest of her life."
"Avoidance is only a temporary solution, solving the symptoms but not the root cause."
"If Liu Qiang isn’t dealt with, he’s like a bomb that could explode at any time beside Qiu Lizhen."
"Report to the police? He hasn’t done anything yet, I can’t just tell the police it’s a guess and a prediction, right?"
Seeing the intelligence concerning Qiu Lizhen’s life, Jiang Tao’s calm heart became a little chaotic.
Gently moving Xu Li’s arm off his stomach,
Jiang Tao turned over, got off the bed onto the floor, picked up his underwear and pajamas thrown on the sofa, and tiptoed out of the bedroom.
He walked onto the balcony, took out a cigarette and lighter, lit a cigarette, and started smoking.
"Go to Qiu Lizhen’s store tomorrow, if he really dares to act, I’ll be able to stop him for sure."
Unable to think of a good plan in a short time, Jiang Tao didn’t bother wasting more brain cells.
In the end, he decided to personally visit Qiu Lizhen’s store tomorrow morning.
With his current constitution over 160, dealing with someone like Liu Qiang would still be easy.
With this decision made, Jiang Tao continued to look at the third intelligence of the day.
[Today’s Intelligence 03]:
You had contact with Xiang Huabin’s assistant Lu Haihong yesterday and obtained relevant intelligence—
Lu Haihong has been using fake low-age alcohol to replace high-age wine in the cellar for a long time, involving amounts up to over 5 million!
A timely reminder can help Xiang Huabin stop the loss and gain his favor.
[Note]: The six bottles of Maotai you drank yesterday were all 10 years old.
...
"This Assistant Lu has some brains, but they’re not being put to proper use!"
Seeing the third piece of intelligence today, Jiang Tao was amused yet helpless.
Just the difference in price between the 50-year-old vintage Maotai and the 10-year-old ones drank yesterday is dozens of times!
Total involved amount is over 5 million.
How much good wine has Assistant Lu replaced from Old Xiang’s collection over the years!!
"Old Xiang, old Xiang, luckily you met me, otherwise how much would your assistant have bled you dry!"
Jiang Tao shook his head with a smile, deciding to remind him in light of the 6 million cash check Old Xiang gave him yesterday.
"Continue, next one."
Jiang Tao focused again, continuing to refresh today’s last piece of intelligence.
[Today’s Intelligence 04]:
You had contact with Xiang Yiwei yesterday and obtained relevant intelligence—
Xiang Yiwei’s mother Qu Yinzhu will have a heart attack at 2 PM today while paying respect at Xiangshan Buddha Temple.
Moreover, their nanny forgot to bring Quick-acting Heart-saving Pills!
Carrying Quick-acting Heart-saving Pills for rescue can earn gratitude and generous rewards from Qu Yinzhu’s entire family.
...
"Xiang Yiwei’s mother, Old Xiang’s wife..."
Seeing the last refreshed intelligence, Jiang Tao wasn’t too excited.
But of course, he wouldn’t miss such an opportunity to gain favor with a big shot.
