A century-old wealthy family that rose from Shanghai

Chapter 30 Sent in
Wang's Carriage Company beat two rickshaw drivers to death. After the Shenbao reported the incident, other Shanghai newspapers also followed up with the report, causing a great impact in the concession.

Under such circumstances, many newspapers requested to interview the two murderers, Tang Zhiqing and Ma Xiaoliu, to find out the truth.

In order to quell public grievances as quickly as possible, officials in the concession prepared to hold this press conference and allow the two murderers to publicly confess their crimes.

Just the night before the press conference, Wang Chengyun invited his lawyer, Inspector Gao and others to a party at his own restaurant, believing that he had been exonerated.

During the meeting, the lawyer said, "Boss Wang, as long as Tang Zhiqing and Ma Xiaoliu publicly confess their crimes tomorrow, this matter will be an ironclad case. We can close the case without waiting for the trial."

Wang Chengyun immediately said, "This time, it's all thanks to Lawyer Lin, and of course, to Inspector Gao."

He had to admit that having a lawyer made a real difference. If they had framed the incident as a tragedy caused by rickshaw drivers opposing rent increases, he would have been stuck. But now, they had framed it as an internal dispute among rickshaw drivers, which naturally had nothing to do with him.

Lawyer Lin smiled and said, "Actually, this incident itself has nothing to do with you. You didn't participate in the beating, nor did you direct it. To put it bluntly, it was all caused by Tang Zhiqing trying to take credit."

After hearing this, Wang Chengyun found that any sense of guilt in his heart had disappeared without a trace.

"Yes, these people are so rash!"

At this time, Inspector Gao said meaningfully: "Since the press conference is over tomorrow, the case is closed, then our brothers..."

Last time, in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't take a penny. After all, the reporters were already there, and he couldn't just take the money and leave.

Now, the greedy Inspector Gao can't wait to ask for money.

Wang Chengyun felt heartbroken, but he said, "Don't worry, Inspector Gao, I've prepared everything and will deliver it to your home as soon as possible."

"Haha, I feel relieved now!"

Lawyer Lin looked down on Inspector Gao, saying that these strong-limbed but simple-minded people were being treated like beggars.

Unlike him, although he also makes money, he can do it in a decent and polite way.

After the dinner, Wang Chengyun was escorted to the gate of Wang's house by the police under the arrangement of Inspector Gao to warn the coachmen not to act recklessly.

"They are smart."

Wang Chengyun looked at the door of Wang's Carriage Company. There were no drivers wandering around anymore, and he blurted out something.

Afterwards, he gave a few patrolmen some small gifts before swaggering back to his mansion.

In Wang's car dealership (Wang's house) lived Wang Chengyun's two wives, three children, two maids, and a housekeeper.

If it were in the past, Tang Zhiqing and others would be bodyguards.

But recently this group of people has dispersed, some have been imprisoned, some have been injured, and some have simply stopped doing it because they are afraid that their clothes will be torn off by the coachmen outside the door.

Therefore, under the recent tense situation, the door of Wang's house is basically closed.

The next day.

A press conference was held outside the Concession Police Station. Tang Zhiqing and Ma Xiaoliu appeared in handcuffs in front of reporters from several newspapers.

Because before the incident, many public opinions suspected that the owner of Wang's Car Dealership was the culprit.

Under the influence of this public opinion, the relevant officials and the police station calmly accepted the request of this press conference, which meant that the two criminals would confess in public, and then everyone would have nothing to say.

As the two murderers walked out, the reporters, some holding cameras, some holding paper and pens, and some holding cameras, staged a full-scale fight to pay attention to this incident.

Reporter: "Mr. Tang, why did you kill the two drivers so cruelly? Was there someone behind the scenes who was behind this?"

As everyone waited, Tang Zhiqing suddenly spoke excitedly, "Yes, the drivers started making trouble because the boss of Wang's Carriage Company wanted to increase the rent. Boss Wang asked us to teach them a lesson. We didn't kill anyone intentionally; it was an accident caused by the chaos. We didn't intend to kill anyone; we were just following the boss's instructions to intimidate them."

Ma Xiaoliu also said: "We are not the mastermind, we are just carrying out the mission."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene was in chaos. No one could have imagined that the two would overturn their verdict and give out the mastermind under such circumstances.

Inspector Gao wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

Moreover, with foreign officials present at the scene, it was not his turn to make the decision. At this time, it was best for him not to act rashly.

A reporter quickly asked, "Is this incident because Wang's Car Dealership wants to increase the rent?"

Tang Zhiqing nodded and said, "That's right. The Wang's Carriage Company had 24 illegal rickshaws seized by the Traffic Department, so Boss Wang wanted to recover his losses from the drivers. The original rent of cents a day was suddenly increased to yuan. The drivers couldn't afford it, so they started to object."

The truth is revealed!

For a moment, the foreign officials also realized that something was wrong and hurriedly asked the translator.

Finally, the foreign officials stated on the spot: "We will never let the mastermind go, please rest assured!"

damn!

Inspector Gao understood that his higher-level superiors had intervened and he could only obey orders.

As for the one or two thousand yuan in bribes, he didn't get a single cent, and he might even be punished by his boss.

It's very simple. With things developing to this point, the police station is also responsible.

And he, Inspector Gao, will definitely be investigated by his superiors.

Two hours later.

Wang Chengyun was arrested from his house by the police in a daze, and then he was greeted with cheers from dozens of rickshaw drivers, which was also filmed by reporters.

"Boss Wang, let's go! Two of your men have turned against us and all believe you're the mastermind!"

Wang Chengyun almost got caught. He couldn't understand why Tang Zhiqing and Ma Xiaoliu turned against him. Could it be that the money had not been settled yet? Although he decided to give a discount, he hadn't shown it yet!

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Wang Chengyun returned to the prison of the police station and waited for the trial.

He would never have thought that he originally wanted to lock up Chen Guangliang for a few days, but now he was sent in by Chen Guangliang.

Yes, some drivers have no idea what to do!
Everything was just instructed by Chen Guangliang, and Zhou Xinggao personally mixed in with the drivers to supervise and give instructions.

At this time, Zhou Xinggao was among the drivers, watching Wang Chengyun being arrested by the police station. He thought that his boss was indeed resourceful, otherwise how could these poor guys fight against others!
Then, when his gaze turned towards Wang's residence, it suddenly became sharp.

Now that Wang Chengyun has been arrested and his team of thugs has been disbanded, according to the information Zhou Xinggao obtained, it seems that only the elderly, children, women and children are left in the house.

He has been working with his boss for some time and listening to his legendary stories. He also wants to make a name for himself in Shanghaitan.

Subsequently.

Zhou Xinggao found Master Liu and said, "Master Liu, the matter has been settled. You must tell Tang Zhiqing's wife the address of the son. Don't do anything that is against the law."

One yard owned by a yard.

Master Liu nodded and said, "Well, Xiao Zhou, what you said makes sense!"

Afterwards, Master Liu took the initiative to say, "Xiao Zhou, thanks to your guidance this time, let's drink together tonight."

"Okay, but I can't handle alcohol very well."

"Haha, I finally know your weakness!"

In the eyes of Master Liu and others, Zhou Xinggao is a capable man!
If he hadn't come to guide them this time, they would not have been able to avenge their dead brother.

"gone"

The group of rickshaw drivers dispersed.

Now that the matter is settled, they also have to consider finding a job.

In front, 72 people were leaving from the Changjiang Car Dealership, who were also their people. However, it was obvious that the Changjiang Car Dealership mainly wanted young people, leaving behind the elderly and weak.
