Three days later, at around nine o'clock in the morning, in the living room of the Yu family, Su Tianyu, Yu Mingyuan, Yu Jinrong and others were sitting on the sofa together, drinking tea and watching the Longcheng morning news.
"Yesterday, the Longcheng City Police Department held a press conference and gave a positive response to the recent criminal cases and large-scale fights among social idlers in our city. The Director of the Police Department, Lin You, clearly stated that this series of cases was caused by the owners of some trading companies in Zhannan Wharf who ignored the law and were greedy for profit. There were many specific participants and their identities were relatively complicated. However, the main culprits have been arrested and the case is under further investigation. Director Lin You also said that in the future, the Police Department will strengthen the management of port security and increase police force...!"
On the sofa, Yu Jinrong watched the TV and chuckled as he said, "The Coders Association is in Longcheng, and they have connections everywhere! For such a big thing, the official media didn't mention the association at all, and directly pushed all the problems onto some trading companies and individuals...!"
"It's really too harsh. The dock workers stopped working for a few days, which made the higher-ups feel uncomfortable." An officer of the garrison said with a smile: "The District One Supervisory Committee only wants to see stability, so the management of our Dragon City is restrained. They want to have a sense of presence, but they dare not make a big fuss. In addition, the Dock Workers Association is very large. Haha, this is the mutual checks and balances between the classes."
Yu Jinrong was too lazy to watch the news, so he turned off the TV with the remote control and looked at Su Tianyu who was drinking tea next to him: "Stop slacking off, don't you have anything to say?"
"Ah?" Su Tianyu raised his head: "What's wrong, Uncle Yu?"
"My dad wants to ask you about Wei Xiangzuo." Seeing that Su Tianyu was playing dumb, Yu Mingyuan directly made it clear.
Su Tianyu put down the teacup, and after seeing Yu Jinrong nod at him, he said in front of everyone: "I don't think it's a big problem."
"Now that Zhang Zhengfang is gone, isn't Wei Xiangzuo's power in the Coders Association a little weaker?" The officer from the garrison also asked Su Tianyu a direct question.
There were many reasons why the Yu family decided to fully support Wei Xiangzuo, and the most important one was that Wei had the card of Zhang Zhengfang in his hand.
Why
Because defeating Xu Hu would not allow Wei Xiangzuo to ascend to the top of the Zhannan District. If he wants to take this position, he must have the approval and support of the General Association, so that it can be justified. In this regard, Zhang Zhengfang could have given Wei Xiangzuo a lot of support, but now that he is gone, this support naturally no longer exists.
Without Zhang Zhengfang, a very important member of the Council of Elders, Wei Xiangzuo would be somewhat weaker with only the support of Dong Zheng in Fukuoka District and the support of local forces in Zhannan. It would be difficult to justify the rumor that he killed Gu Tongshan.
Su Tianyu understood everyone's concerns and immediately responded softly: "There are several potential factors that are very favorable to Wei Xiangzuo."
"You talk, I want to listen." Yu Jinrong looked at him and replied.
"He hasn't spent all the five million I gave Wei Xiangzuo." Su Tianyu replied with clear thoughts: "This money can be used now."
"Where is it used?" Yu Jinrong asked.
"It's used in the relationship with the Zhanan Customs." Su Tianyu replied with a smile: "To put it simply, the composition of this Code Workers Association is a typical pyramid management. The headquarters will control the overall situation, while the specific management is handled by the halls in each district. This leads to a high degree of freedom in each district. As long as they do not violate the rules, they are autonomous. Take Zhanan as an example. When Xu Hu was there, the Customs Anti-Smuggling, Coast Guard, Navy, Customs, and Entry and Exit Management Departments only recognized him or Wei Xiangzuo, and not necessarily the Code Workers Association."
When Yu Jinrong heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Perhaps those high-ranking and powerful people have close ties with the upper echelons of the Coders' Association, but they are not the ones who do the actual work, nor are they responsible for management, so the grassroots in the customs also have a lot of say." Su Tianyu narrated concisely: "Xu Hu is dead, and these people would rather see a familiar face take over Zannan, because it is convenient and the rules don't need to be changed, so Wei Xiangzuo only needs to win over those who originally supported Xu Hu. Those people in the customs can completely make up for Zhang Zhengfang's part of the power with a word."
"That makes sense." The garrison soldiers nodded slowly.
"Most of the money will be spent at the customs." Su Tianyu continued, "Let's look at it from within the Coders' Association. Gu Tongshan's son supports Lao Wei, and the people in Fukuoka District will also support him. In addition, the local forces in Zhannan have a lot of say. Let me say something unpleasant. If things get to this point, the president of the Coders' Association will remove Wei Xiangzuo and parachute in a new leader. Then what happened a few days ago will easily happen again after a while. If the people in Zhannan are not convinced, they will fight again, but the aftermath of your incident has not dissipated yet, and you continue to make trouble. Isn't that courting death?"
Yu Jinrong felt relieved when he heard this, because he had been worried that if Wei Xiangzuo was imprisoned, the situation in Zhannan would get out of control.
Su Tianyu chuckled and added, "One more thing, the words of the police department carry a lot of weight, after all, they have the power to handle the case! Hehe, Uncle Yu, in fact, you can find Director Lin. As long as he is willing to help say one more word, it will be more useful than the people below saying a hundred words."
Yu Jinrong looked at Su Tianyu with satisfaction, pointed at him, and asked the garrison troops, "How is it, isn't this kid from the Su family good?"
"A smart guy," the garrison man nodded, "a good candidate for conspiracy."
"Ha ha!"
Everyone laughed. Yu Jinrong stood up and pointed at Su Tianyu and said, "We made a lot of friends in the police station during this incident. Go back and get the money from Mingyuan and express your gratitude to them."
"I have already called Wang Daolin and am just waiting for the funding from the higher-ups."
"Don't do anything related to corruption, otherwise I will punish you!" Yu Jinrong reminded.
"Okay, Uncle Yu!" Su Tianyu responded sweetly.
After everyone finished chatting at Yu's house, Su Tianyu immediately drove Kong Zhenghui and Bai Hongbo to meet Wang Daolin.
…
District 1, Huadu.
An Qiqi was wearing a shiny sports watch on her left hand as she walked into the mall. She asked Wawa, "What do you think I should buy for him?"
"Who is it?"
"Who else could it be? Su Liu!"
"Tsk tsk... Su Liu? I'm still Shen Qi! What a cheesy name." Wawa shuddered, turned his head to look at the men's underwear store next to him, and blurted out: "Why not buy him a pair of steel shorts? That would be good for both of you, and avoid any accidental discharge of the gun."
"Get lost!" An Qiqi cursed, "I was just returning the favor out of politeness."
After saying that, An Qiqi looked towards a new store not far away, and then her eyes lit up: "How about I give him that?!"
