Li Mingsheng was taken hostage by the Chi Army soldiers and brought into the main building, where he was then checked at the side door.
When the Chijun soldier took out the tweezers that he had used on Su Tianyu's "back garden", Li Mingsheng's face turned green: "I don't have any electronic equipment with me!"
"Mr. Mayor, you said you didn't bring it. That's not right." The soldier of the Ruler Army shook his head directly: "We have to see for ourselves."
“I don’t use tweezers!”
"Then what should I use?"
“… I’ll do it myself!” Li Mingsheng gritted his teeth and replied, and was forced to have a physical examination.
…
Ten minutes later, on the third floor.
Li Mingsheng was brought into an empty room. He looked up at the window with drawn curtains and was slightly stunned.
"Hello, Mr. Mayor." Zhao Weihu said with a smile.
"You came here by yourself? You're quite brave!" A flash of astonishment passed across Li Mingsheng's eyes.
Zhao Weihu smoked a cigarette and replied softly: "You are quite courageous. I asked you to come and you came."
"I am different from you. You are a bandit and I am a cadre of Longcheng. This is my responsibility." Li Mingsheng replied in a relaxed manner, bent down and sat on the sofa.
"Responsibility?! Seventy to eighty thousand laborers came to the city, but not only did they not get the rights they deserve as citizens, they were also blackmailed. Not only were their hard-earned money squeezed dry, but their lives were also taken. Haha, is this what you call responsibility?" Zhao Weihu sat opposite Li Mingsheng, pointed his finger at his face, and said word by word: "If you really understood responsibility and had a bit of backbone, I would not give up being a civilian and an officer to run to Sinalo to help foreigners fight!"
Li Mingsheng simply waved his hand: "I didn't come here to engage in a political debate, and Longcheng's development plan is not something you can understand! Let's get straight to the point."
Zhao Weihu intervened and looked at the other party: "First release the people you captured along the Sinalo coast."
"We can release some of them, but not all of them." Li Mingsheng shook his head and refused, "We need to rebuild trust. I will have people release 80 percent of the arrested members. As for the rest, we can talk after our hostages are released."
Zhao Weihu nodded slowly: "That's fine."
"Then hurry up, there's no need to drag it out."
"Haha, don't worry. Besides that, I want a ransom of 30 million so that my people can take them away directly." Zhao Weihu lowered his head and said, "Just now in the backyard, many of my brothers died. I have to give them an explanation."
"Don't go too far! It's over. Have you ever thought about your situation?"
"Haha, fuck!" Zhao Weihu replied with disdain: "I am a desperado, Old Leizi, you are talking to me about your situation? I am talking to you directly about life and death, okay?!"
Li Mingsheng was silent.
"Thirty million is not a lot." Zhao Weihu curled his lips and said, "You embezzle millions of dollars a day from the workers. Besides this, you should not hate me, but thank me."
Li Mingsheng looked at the other party with complicated eyes.
"It's an emergency, hostages are being taken, we are a vicious extremist organization, and you are the glorious mayor who is risking your life for the safety of the people and public officials." Zhao Weihu said jokingly, "I am risking my life to help you become famous! It's not too much to ask you for an extra 30 million, right?"
Li Mingsheng gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you."
"Great!" Zhao Weihu stood up and shouted, "Come on, arrange a call for the mayor and ask them to raise money."
Li Mingsheng looked at Zhao Weihu, who was full of rebellious temperament, and suddenly said: "You are also very smart."
"What am I smart about?"
"You are making such a big fuss, isn't your purpose to win over the hearts of the workers and expand the team?" Li Mingsheng replied softly: "Some corrupt elements in the city and the emergency policies have made the workers dissatisfied. You jumped out to make trouble at this time, which is equivalent to making a big thing for those who dare not make trouble."
Zhao Wei put his hands behind his back and said, "I don't have as many tricks as you. My request is simple. If you don't mess with me, I won't mess around in the Chinese city... After all, I have fought for this place, been on the battlefield, and shed blood. But if you guys want to use me as a punching bag for political reasons, then I'm sorry, I'm willing to bear the infamy and become a real terrorist!"
Li Mingsheng looked at the other party, slowly stood up and walked to the side of the Chi Army soldiers, and reached out to take the phone.
…
Half an hour later.
All the soldiers and troops arrested in Sinalo, as well as the capitalists such as Lao Huang, were brought out. Then the special police team named them one by one and released 80% of the members. In the end, only a dozen backbones of the capitalists such as Lao Huang were left.
Before the people left, the media was not informed, and the municipal government asked four trading companies to collect 30 million in cash and give it to the other party. Because the money could not be paid by the municipal government, it would be too embarrassing and would be a complete compromise with the gangsters, so the money could only be shared by those unlucky people.
You are responsible for corruption, you are responsible for accepting bribes, you are responsible for taking advantage of policy dividends, you are responsible for everything, so it is inevitable that you will bleed at critical moments.
…
After the Chijun troops were released, Zhao Weihu immediately found Zhu Bajie and whispered to him, "Notify the people inside and outside the courtyard to prepare to retreat."
"Where are the hostages?" Zhu Bajie asked.
"We will also release 80% of them." Zhao Weihu frowned and pointed at Zhu Bajie and said, "Karl stays and proposes to the other party to let Secretary Lu come back."
"Ah? Didn't you let him go?" Zhu Bajie was a little surprised.
"There are reasons to let him come back." Zhao Weihu waved his hand and said, "Go ahead!"
…
In the far east, there is a super region with a vast territory and a stable political environment. It is called the China Region.
In the southwest of the Chinese region, there is a place called Chuanfu, and the capital of Chuanfu is called Chongdu.
In the suburbs about a hundred kilometers away from the center of a major city, there is a small mountain range that is not marked on electronic maps. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, has beautiful scenery, and has rows of Hui-style courtyards.
In the central courtyard, a young man in his twenties, holding a phone in his hand, walked quickly and whispered, "I'm going to the Old Triangle. OK, sister, I got it... um...!"
In the Old Triangle area, a young man was sitting in the headquarters residence of the Western Theater Command in the Chinese District. He looked up at the news from Longcheng and said lightly, "This Zhao Weihu has some talent as a general!"
"I think he is too rash. Even if he gets out, he won't live long." A middle-aged man next to him shook his head and replied.
"Let me make a bet. I bet he can make it in Sinalo."
"How do you know?"
"… He went to Longcheng to hijack the Supervisory Committee just to establish his own label." The young man peeled the orange and said calmly: "When he gets out, he will be the spiritual leader of the workers."
"Aren't you being too arbitrary?"
"Look behind you!"
…
Dragon City, command center headquarters.
When Secretary-General Lu was discussing the plan to intercept the fleeing bandits with the commander of the garrison corps, Li Mingsheng's secretary walked in quickly and whispered, "Secretary-General Lu... I'm afraid you have to go back."
"Go back? Where to?!" Old Lu was a little confused.
"Go back to the Supervisory Committee compound. The bandits have asked you to come over. Escort them away."
“… No, why are you asking me to go back? I’ve already come out!”
"We don't know either. They'll let you go, or they won't release the hostages."
"Fuck you!" Secretary-General Lu was furious: "You let me go in and out, are you looking for pleasure?!"
