The tea was brewed quickly, and when a cup of light-colored black tea was placed on the seat opposite Wei Jincheng, Yu Zui had already taken a good look at the few furnishings in the room. Not tasteful.
"You must be surprised by my old-fashioned furniture here?" Wei Jincheng asked softly, making gestures.
"Could it be a priceless antique?" Yu Zui asked, he really had such doubts, but his eyesight was too clumsy, as for the concept of wealth, he only knew RMB.
"No no...you misunderstood, this is not an antique, it can only be used as firewood if it is thrown into the garbage dump." Wei Jincheng smiled, and Yu Zui said casually with a cup of tea, "Oh, it must have a special meaning."
"Yes, when my family was the poorest, these few pieces of furniture were left. Later, I accumulated some wealth through business. My father always taught me not to forget my roots. He also practiced himself and did a good job. Come to me. It has also become a habit, but outsiders seem to be a little confused, how do you describe this?" Wei Jincheng asked with a smile.
"Pretentious." Yu Zui rolled his eyes and spit out two words.
Wei Jincheng looked stunned, and then laughed it off, there is a generation gap between the two of them.
That's right, with such a huge net worth, and still cherishing so much, ordinary people can be called frugal, and rich people can only be a kind of weirdness.
"I speak straight and can't turn corners." Yu Zui said, putting down his teacup.
"I can turn corners, but I like straight, so let's get straight to the point. Officer Yu came to the door again, there must be something wrong?" Wei Jincheng said.
"Yes, but I couldn't figure out where to start, so I came here directly. I really want to meet the owner of the legendary Taoyuan Mansion." Yu Zui said, his words were not polite.
"People like us may be mysterious to other people, but the police should have no secrets. I think Officer Yu should have investigated my ancestors for several generations. Apart from these, I may not have anything to tell you. "Wei Jincheng laughed, very calmly.
"Then tell me something." Yu Zui remained unmoved, and asked with a smile: "For example, why did you make me wait for a few hours? I thought it was to save face, but now it seems that Boss Wei seems Don't care about these external things."
"Hehe." Wei Jincheng smiled and said, "I did it on purpose."
"Oh, this sentence is more honest, I like it." Yu Zui said.
Wei Jincheng added water to the two cups, looked at Yu Zui, and said with a smile, "I just wanted to see Police Officer Yu's patience."
If you are angry, if you are angry, if you leave, in Wei Jincheng's eyes, such a person will be inferior. Of course, to his surprise, this legendary unscrupulous black policeman seems to be not good at self-cultivation. Low.
"The result?" Yu Zui asked.
"It's the result of us sitting opposite each other." Wei Jincheng laughed.
"Oh, Boss Wei's test, you don't need to test the police like this. If you really find that you are valuable, many police will nail you like a gangrene." Yu Zui laughed.
"Then police officer, what value are you going to get from this?" Wei Jincheng raised his eyelids, as friendly as before, without any trace of panic or sullenness.
Damn, this person's mentality is too good, he won't make any waves when he is good, Yu Zui smiled and didn't say anything, he was thinking about how to be ruthless.
It was also quite troublesome for Wei Jincheng. Anyone who came to the door must ask for something. He asked himself that he could see all kinds of things at a glance, but this little policeman who seemed to have no deep experience in the world gave him a feeling that he couldn't see through it. He couldn't start , do what you like.
Embarrassed for a moment, Wei Jincheng found another topic and said, "I don't know what you like about tea, so I chose black tea, which is warm and nourishing, suitable for all ages, does it suit your taste?"
"Just quench your thirst, everything is the same. Boss Wei, I have another question. Are you so friendly to all the people below? Or call it, pretending to be aggressive?" Yu Zui smiled.
"Basically, learn to respect others, and only then can you gain respect from others. Really, this is also taught by my father. He follows the principle of not messing with anyone. Don't mess with officials, police, or gangsters... Only then can you stop causing trouble." Wei Jincheng laughed.
"Oh, you have a good father, but sometimes the tree wants to be quiet and the wind keeps going." Yu Zui said.
"A big tree invites the wind, and the mind will be calm when the mind is calm." Wei Jincheng turned on the water again, responding to the temptations presented by Yu Zui by remaining unchanged.
"You may not be able to be quiet, right? If you are really quiet, I'm afraid you won't even need to see a little policeman like me if you come to the door, right?" Yu Zui smiled mischievously, and began to play a rascal.
That's right, when a little policeman like me came to the door, you were so condescending first and then condescending, obviously you have a ghost in your heart.
"Little policeman? Not necessarily... As far as I know, Police Officer Yu seems to have been in charge of the downfall of Orange Years; the underground casino in Jinci Mountain Villa was also written by Officer Yu, right?" Wei Jincheng said with a smile.
"Yo, you understand me so clearly?" Yu Zui smiled.
"You don't need to know anything about you. I'm not the most famous person in the business world, but in the police world, you are already a celebrity." Wei Jincheng laughed.
The situation immediately turned around, as if Boss Wei was clinging to him. Yu Zui smiled and scrambled forward: "Since Boss Wei cares so much, why didn't he hear that you care about that person?"
"Which one?" Wei Jincheng asked.
"That's right, the one we captured here, you don't wonder what he does?" Yu Zui asked, looking straight at Wei Jincheng.
"I really don't care too much. There are hundreds of core members and hundreds of ordinary members. They have their own circles. I just create an environment that suits everyone's wishes." Wei Jincheng said.
"Does it include drug trafficking?" Yu Zui asked.
Obviously seeing Boss Wei's hand gestures stagnate, he looked at Yu Zui in astonishment.
"He is a drug dealer, and according to our inside information, you are involved in drugs here, otherwise, I really have no interest in waiting for you here for a few hours, just to drink a cup of tea with a bad taste." Yu Zui's face turned cold, with a fierce look It came out slowly.
The body of a rich man is called not sitting down, and the boss with such a fortune is most afraid of getting involved in these black affairs.
"There is more valuable news. I wonder how much Boss Wei can pay?" Yu Zui asked again.
"You..." Wei Jincheng put down his glass with stiff gestures, and said in a daze, "Are you planning to blackmail me?"
"Then are you going to spend money to buy peace? Maybe, I can give you a lot of information you want to know." Yu Zuishen said mysteriously, and began to dig a hole.
"You're still deceiving me, money can't buy peace." Wei Jincheng said.
Oops, the first blackmail failed, and Yu Zui immediately realized that this is a smart man, unlike those small households who are not clean, and if they blackmail a few words, he will rush to deposit money. Sai immediately entered the list of suspects.
"But why did I see that you seem to be restless? Don't deny it, it's meaningless. Frankly speaking, if I were rejected today, or if you asked someone to photograph me, I would be more likely to accept it... and you Old man, be polite first and then respectful, so polite, I seem to think that you are not as simple as being innocent." Yu Zui said, his eyes were like blazes, staring at Wei Jincheng unnaturally.
This doesn't look like a vicious policeman collecting black money everywhere. Wei Jincheng sighed, and knew in his heart that the rumor would kill people.
He settled down and boiled another pot of water, as if he was using mechanical movements to cover up his inner activities. Yu Zui couldn't catch the psychological changes in his breezy expression. And Yu Zui himself is also confusing to the other party, it is obvious that he is a bit evil, but you can't find his weakness.
"It seems that you are not a straightforward person." Wei Jincheng sighed, and he was a little confused by this twist.
"Hehe, you may not like people who are straightforward and can't turn corners." Yu Zui laughed.
"Then how about we change the way we talk?" Wei Jincheng said.
"Are you going to use the simplest and most direct way?" Yu Zui answered with a question.
The two seemed to have a tacit understanding, nodding and looking at each other, although their backgrounds and tastes were quite different, they unexpectedly reached a consensus at this time.
Maybe they all feel that the other party is in the dark, so the simplest and most direct way has become the first choice.
"I guarantee that you will return with satisfaction. Frankly speaking, I am afraid of a person like you who does not follow the rules at all. The brilliance accumulated by wealth is very fragile in a sense. I also believe that you have this Ability." Wei Jincheng said, an orange year and a Jinci Villa are enough to prove the ability of the person in front of him, and he asked directly: "So, I want to know exactly what you plan to get from me?"
A smile slowly formed in Yu Zui's eyes, the weakness of the rich is his wealth, without exception, he smiled, looked at Wei Jincheng, as if trying to figure out the truth of this sentence.
"So direct, then I'll ask you directly." Yu Zui also changed his tone and said directly: "Are you involved in drugs? I want you to tell the truth."
Hiss... Wei Jincheng never thought of this, staring at Yu Zui in astonishment, speechless for a while.
"It seems that you can't satisfy me and return home, I can only figure out a way." Yu Zui stood up as he spoke, Wei Jincheng couldn't sit still at this moment, so he quickly stopped him, clasped his hands straight to apologize, and sat down again, he considered for a moment , gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and nodded.
Oh, this surprised Yu Zui. He didn't expect it to be so simple. He looked at Boss Wei in astonishment and said, "I really admire you now, Boss Wei."
"Let me finish. In the current environment, as long as it is a place for entertainment and leisure, it is impossible not to be free from drugs. This is a very simple truth; for example, if there are anti-corruption propaganda everywhere, it means that corruption is dying. For example, the development of the market economy is everywhere, which means that there are still considerable problems in the market economy... For example, if any bank has anti-fraud propaganda, it means that scammers have penetrated all over the place; The poison has spread." Mr. Wei said with a bitter face, this is the trend of the times, and it cannot be done by humans.
Oh, it makes sense, Yu Zui laughed dumbly, and said: "Then you are so calm, why don't you get out of the mud and not get dirty?"
Like a mockery, Wei Jincheng shook his head and said: "It's impossible not to be stained. We have thousands of members, and most of them are wealthy. The material life is very good, but the spiritual life is relatively poor. I can't guarantee that the people who come to us to spend They are clean and law-abiding. They are all looking for excitement and fun, and the proliferation of drugs is also a subcultural phenomenon in the material age."
"I understand. The root of the Taoyuan mansion's involvement in drugs is here." Yu Zui said, Wei Jincheng nodded, with a look of helplessness, Yu Zui changed the subject and asked, "What about you?"
"I don't have much interest. From a businessman's point of view, there are many businesses that are more profitable than drugs. For example, I am doing real estate; I am doing private fund-raising; It is much easier and safer than organizing a drug trafficking network. Five generations of our family are businessmen, pure businessmen. The first generation was a ticket office and was ransacked by the Taiping Rebel Army; The agent was in the tea business, but was robbed by the warlords in chaos, and my great-grandfather was also kidnapped by the bandits. His family was in trouble, and he died of depression. The third generation of my grandfather started from fetching water and selling big bowls of tea, and used it for half his life. Supported a restaurant business, called Sixi Tower, who knew that after liberation, the local tyrants were beaten and the property was divided... Our family became poor again." Wei Jincheng said with a smile.
Yu Zui was also amused by this story spanning several generations, and asked with a smile, "Then what happened to your grandfather?"
"The land is rich and the right is bad, can there be a good end? My father said that when he was buried, he rolled up Zhang Wei's mat and buried it indiscriminately. In my father's generation, after the reform and opening up, he felt that the policy had changed and gave everything he had. , started from a small workshop, set up an electrolytic aluminum factory, and then committed a crime for no reason... There was a crime called speculation. He was sentenced to life at first, then changed to ten years, and finally released after seven years There is no explanation." Wei Jincheng smiled wryly, he didn't know why he told this ridiculous story, and he didn't cry when he told it, he couldn't laugh or cry.
"Oh, it seems that your family has the genes for business, and it will take a few years for you to turn around again." Yu Zui laughed.
"Someone has already checked this. The land under the Taoyuan Mansion is the former site of the aluminum factory. When the government tore off the seal and returned it to my family, there will be a piece of barren grass... The land was requisitioned for a lot of money. When it reaches 500,000, it is now worth 500 million." Wei Jincheng said lightly, the joys and sorrows of his life are all tied to one place, and it feels a bit unbearable to recall the past.
"I seem to understand." Yu Zui blinked his eyes, he saw a tired and slightly aged face, these feelings made him forget the reason for coming this time.
"You, what do you understand?" Wei Jincheng asked deeply.
"Every man is not guilty, but pregnant is guilty." Yu Zui said.
Wei Jincheng was stunned, looking at Yu Zui with a sympathetic expression, and slowly said: "My father said that if you prosper with this, you will die with it. In an atmosphere of politics rather than democracy, it is difficult to have a pure businessman. Many friends around me have immigrated, and what they worry most about is that one day, the wealth they have worked so hard to accumulate will be wiped out, and they don’t want their children to repeat their experience. It’s easy for me to leave, but I’m not going to leave , My roots are here. Whether it is poor roots or rich seedlings here, it is better than rootless duckweed."
Yu Zui is hesitating, his perception is slowly changing, and it becomes clearer and clearer that the goal seems to be wrong.
Damn, it must be a mistake, can't someone who amassed wealth by illegal means have such a heart of worrying about the country and the people
"You don't seem to have a good impression of businessmen?" Wei Jincheng saw Yu Zui's expression and realized that he was mistaken.
"Most people don't like merchants. Merchants and thieves believe in the same God." Yu Zui said with a smile.
Wei Jincheng was embarrassed for a while, but Yu Zui added with a smile: "I didn't mean to target you. My father is a small businessman who sells fruits. Look at him, in my eyes, he is the greatest father. He came and went in the wind and rain, and raised me so big with a few dollars and a few cents. He didn’t have to do this, but he had nothing to do except this. Do it."
Wei Jincheng was touched by these words, he looked at Yu Zui bewilderedly, pursed his lips, but did not make a sound, as if this young man had something in common with him, he could understand it, but couldn't express it in words come out.
"Okay, thank you Mr. Wei for your hospitality, it's been more than an hour before you know it." Yu Zui paused for a while, drank the last cup, it was already cold, and he was about to leave, Wei Jincheng was a little bit reluctant at this time, But when we met for the first time, and didn't know if it was appropriate to keep this guy, he invited with bright eyes, "Why don't we have a meal together?"
"It's too troublesome. You rich people have too many rules. I'm the owner of a street food stall. I can't stand the constraints." Yu Zui got up and said.
"Hey, wait... Do you want to go together? The hand-cooked noodles in Liuxiang, the haggis in Gulou, the iron egg noodles in Wuyi Road... I know all the famous snacks. In fact, I often go there, and it’s still a big bowl Eat comfortably." Wei Jincheng invited him a little excitedly, as if he had found a good friend all of a sudden.
Hehe, Yu Zui was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but laugh, and walked with a smile: "Okay, let me wait for a few hours, then please have a meal to make up for it. But Boss Wei, are you sure you want to get along with the police?" Closer? The face of the police can change at will, I tell you bluntly, if you are really involved in drugs, one day I will handcuff you away."
"I'm really not afraid of you checking, you're not the first to check, the police station, sub-bureau, city bureau, narcotics control bureau, firefighting, cultural... basically anyone with a bureau has checked me, even eight The Civil Affairs Bureau and the Environmental Protection Bureau, which are nowhere to be found, set up a pretext to collect money from us. I am not afraid of investigation, but I am afraid that someone will ruin our business in the name of investigation." Wei Jincheng poured out bitterness and met his confidant.
Entering the elevator, Yu Zui felt the same way and said, "I understand this, but what's unacceptable in such a national situation, isn't it normal? My father's fruit stall has people grabbing fruit, not to mention you have such a big business?"
"Private business is difficult. There are too many wolves and a big appetite. No matter how big the business is, it's not enough to eat... Hey, what are you laughing at? Is what I said ridiculous?" Wei Jincheng said with great frustration, and smiled at Yu Zui all the time , expressed puzzlement.
"I'm laughing." Yu Zui said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, and finally let me find some sense of superiority as a poor person, haha..."
Leaving the elevator with a big laugh, Wei Jincheng was also amused by the words, pointing at Yu Zui and saying that the policeman is bad enough.
The two were chatting and laughing like a pair of close friends. It's only been an hour. Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded by that appearance. What's even more astonishing is that Mr. Wei didn't even want the driver, and went straight to Yu Zuikai. In the car, the two of them slipped away and disappeared into the dark dusk...
