At around ten o'clock in the evening, Jiang Zheng left, and Lu Guangwei took a few people and drove out of the city and came to a port town outside Longcheng.
Several cars turned several turns and drove into a remote courtyard.
At this time, in the courtyard, a black man in his thirties was sitting at a large round table eating.
The table was filled with all kinds of seafood, including lobster, abalone, conch, and everything else.
The black man ate in an exaggerated manner, with voracious appetite. Behind him stood seven or eight black men, each with a bulging waist and carrying a weapon.
After Lu Guangwei got out of the car, he led people into the yard. When he saw the black man, he said with a smile, "Brother, I've kept you waiting for a long time."
The black man said nothing, but pointed to the chair in front of him.
Lu Guangwei sat down, without any hesitation, he reached out and picked up a sweet shrimp, tore off its head and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Where are the goods?" the black man asked Lu Guangwei in stiff Chinese.
"It's on the way." Lu Guangwei said with a smile: "Don't worry, in Longcheng, there is no ship more stable than mine in this business. As long as you can eat up my line, we can do it often."
“Crack!”
The black man pried open the claw of a king crab, took out the meat and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "I have a good appetite."
Lu Guangwei grinned: "I'll make sure you're full tonight."
…
While the two were chatting, two trucks with the logistics company's logo on them drove out of the logistics warehouse that Jiang Zheng had just visited.
Five black SUVs escorted them all the way out of the area.
Lu Guangwei's most trusted henchman sat in the front SUV and personally escorted the cargo.
"Brother Chao, when we're done, why don't we have some fun together?" A little brother sitting next to him asked with gritted teeth.
"Fuck!" Brother Chao was also very polite and asked casually, "Is your mother on vacation recently? If not, let's go find her later?"
"Brother, my mother's shop closed down last year. Now it's all administrative. Su Tianyu's brothers are saying that there is no way for others to survive." The younger brother responded with a sigh.
Everyone sat in the car, smoking and not talking any more.
About half an hour later, the convoy gradually approached the exit at the edge of the city. However, the vehicles here formed a long queue, so Chao Ge and his team slowed down.
"Brother Chao, there's a big checkpoint ahead." The driver whispered.
"Let me see." Brother Chao rolled down the window and looked out.
In front of the traffic, more than a dozen police cars were blocking the way, leaving only one passage for traffic. Many police officers stood on both sides of the street, checking the passing vehicles one by one.
There were three large trucks parked on the side of the road, all of which seemed to be illegal vehicles and had been detained. Several drivers were handcuffed and sitting in the police car. Another driver looked flustered and was constantly explaining something to the police officers.
The younger brothers sitting in the car immediately became nervous, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Brother Chao frowned, observed carefully for a while, and asked the driver: "Look at that man, is he Lao San?"
The driver had good eyesight and observed for a while. There was indeed a person in the patrol team ahead who looked very familiar.
"Yes, it's him." The driver nodded.
Brother Chao was relieved and smiled to comfort his men: "Don't panic, it's okay."
The men nodded, but the sweat on their foreheads still revealed their inner thoughts.
The convoy followed the flow of traffic, moving forward slowly. When it was their turn, Brother Chao pushed the door open and got out of the car. He walked quickly to the side of the third police officer, saying, "Hey, third brother, you're still on duty so late. It's too hard!"
The third brother glanced at Brother Chao and pointed at the two logistics trucks parked in front and behind: "Your car?"
"From the company." Brother Chao took out a cigarette while smiling.
"What's the gift?" The third brother stretched out his hand to push away the cigarette, and at the same time walked towards the truck.
"Seafood!" Brother Chao hurriedly followed and said with a smile, "They are all crabs, alive. Why are you suddenly so busy today?"
"There's going to be a meeting in the city, didn't you know?" The third brother replied as he reached out to open the door of the truck, saw the rows of cargo boxes inside, and immediately raised his foot to walk up.
Brother Chao looked down at the third brother's leather shoes and advised: "Look, your shoes are so shiny, why are you getting into the car? It's full of dust."
"Didn't I tell you, we're checking Dagang." The third brother had already climbed into the cargo box and was about to reach out and open one of the boxes.
Brother Chao's heart was in his throat, and he said hurriedly: "Hey, are you still worried about me?"
The third brother turned around, glanced at Brother Chao, and chuckled, "It's because it's you that I'm worried."
Just as the two were talking, a black SUV slowly moved forward and blocked the lens of the law enforcement recorder with its body.
Brother Chao reached out and took a black travel bag from the car, and put it directly in the truck compartment. He whispered to the third brother, "I'm so old, how can I not understand this rule? If you can't trust me, then can you trust it?"
"brush!"
Brother Chao opened his travel bag, which was filled with cash.
The two looked at each other and said nothing.
Five minutes later, the convoy was allowed to pass and drove out of the area.
…
At the same time, at the Longcheng garrison corps headquarters.
After the meeting, Tan Hengqiang invited An Zecheng to the private canteen at the base to have a meal and chat.
The clean table was covered with a white tablecloth, on which were placed several exquisite homemade side dishes.
Tan Hengqiang ate his food quietly without saying a word.
An Zecheng put down his chopsticks and asked first, "Old Tan, I heard that your military budget has been cut. This tight ring must be uncomfortable to wear, right?"
Tan Hengqiang waved his hands and said calmly, "It's no big deal. District One just wants me to express my attitude. If I express my intention to contain Lao Li in Longcheng, not only will the tight ring be gone, but I can also increase my military expenditure by 30%."
An Zecheng looked at Tan Hengqiang and said, "This is a plan to drive the tiger to devour the wolf! By then, the wolf may die, but the tiger will definitely not have a good ending."
Hearing this, Tan Hengqiang smiled and said, "Ah, I've been in meetings all day for four or five hours. I'm tired. Let's not talk about work."
An Zecheng followed with a smile and said, "Okay, then what do you want to talk about?"
Tan Hengqiang looked at An Zecheng with a smile on his face: "Haha, can we talk about some personal matters?"
An Zecheng asked as he picked up some food: "What's the personal question?"
Tan Hengqiang poured a cup of tea for An Zecheng and handed it to him: "What do you think, how about we become relatives?"
An Zecheng raised his head and looked at Tan Hengqiang in confusion.
Tan Hengqiang patted An Zecheng's hand gently: "If it's your in-laws...everything will be easy."
