After briefly explaining the situation, Lu Wenlong got straight to the point, afraid that he would ramble on and Hu Dahai would lose patience.

"Actually, it wasn't me, Lu Wenlong, who hit your wife. I'm just taking the blame. The one who really hit your wife was Li Hongyan."

Upon hearing Lu Wenlong's words, Hu Dahai's right eye narrowed sharply.

In fact, Hu Dahai had already had some premonitions, and his intuition told him that there must be more to the story than met the eye back then.

Or perhaps he had a vague idea of ​​the truth. Especially when he saw that Lu Wenlong had been released from prison so early, and that he, who was uneducated and had no special skills, was being given such an important position by Li Ruochun.

All these signs made it easy for Hu Dahai to guess that there was a bad relationship between Lu Wenlong and Li Ruochun.

But when the truth was actually revealed and presented to him, Hu Dahai was still shocked and angry.

"Go on," Hu Dahai said, his voice devoid of any emotional change.

Lu Wenlong took another deep look at Hu Dahai, worried that Hu Dahai might suddenly attack and kill him, mistaking him for Li Hongyan.

"Li Hongyan was already in a panic after hitting the person, so he didn't even get out of the car and just ran away."

“After Li Ruochun learned about this, he came to me and said that as long as I helped his son take the blame, he would arrange a job for me and give me some money.”

“At the time, I was heavily in debt from gambling. Those people said that if I couldn’t pay off my debts, they would cut off my hands and feet, so of course I agreed to their demands. I became the scapegoat and took all the blame.”

“In the past, Li Ruochun and the others didn’t take you seriously. They thought you would definitely agree to it. Even if you doubted or didn’t believe it, you couldn’t make any waves with your abilities.”

"But now that you've been showing your strength so often, it's making them a little uneasy. They're worried that once you've gained more power, that incident will be brought up again, and then Li Hongyan will be in trouble."

"That's why they targeted you. That's how it is. I was just an accomplice."

After Lu Wenlong finished speaking, he looked at Hu Dahai with great fear.

Or rather, he was looking at the thick stack of papers in Hu Dahai's hand.

Hu Dahai remained calm: "So, all your repeated attacks on me were at the behest of Li Ruochun?"

"No, no, no." Lu Wenlong dared not tell a lie now. He said truthfully, "Actually, Li Ruochun sent us to deal with you at first, but after we failed, he was disappointed in us."

"The next few times, it was because we were envious of your money-making projects and felt a bit unbalanced, so we took action against you."

As he spoke, he solemnly assured, "Don't worry, we'll never dare to do it again, and we'll never go against you again."

Hu Dahai smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't really matter to me if you oppose me. You should know that yourselves."

“I’m not worried at all about you going against me. On the contrary, I find your act of throwing your lives away hilarious.”

"Cough cough cough." Being mocked so blatantly by Hu Dahai made Lu Wenlong feel his face burning.

Having obtained the information he wanted, Hu Dahai didn't make things too difficult for Lu Wenlong and his group.

After letting each of them experience this feeling of being worse than dead, Hu Dahai released them all.

Normally, on the way back, they would all be filled with righteous indignation, shouting that they would get their revenge, especially that hillbilly Du Wu.

But today, they returned to the Lingdong Brigade quietly, without uttering a single word the entire way. The thought of what Hu Dahai had just done to them still filled them with fear.

The feeling of almost being suffocated to death was truly unforgettable for them. Especially Du Wu, who groaned and cursed the loudest, and the longer Hu Dahai suffocated him.

His double eyelids had already turned white before Hu Dahai removed the wet paper covering him.

Even now, he is still coughing incessantly and can barely speak.

......

Quan Shan, from the Qunyi Brigade, quietly appeared beside Hu Dahai and said, "They've already gone far away. I watched them enter the Lingdong Brigade before I came back."

"Okay, sure." Hu Dahai nodded.

"You're quite calm." Quan Shan had obviously heard what was being said inside. He felt that if this had happened to him, he would never have been able to remain as calm as Hu Dahai was now.

Hu Dahai said, "Actually, I already had the answer in my heart, I just wanted to verify it."

“I see.” Quan Shan pondered for a moment and then asked, “Mr. Hu, how should we handle our relationship with the Li family now?”

"No rush," Hu Dahai said with a smile. "We'll make our move when the opportunity is right. Now that you've left, they should be in a state of chaos."

"We must also take this opportunity to develop rapidly. Even if we confront them head-on now, we can't fundamentally harm them. Moreover, we might accidentally break ourselves."

As Hu Dahai spoke, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, have you seen anyone in our Qunyi Brigade recently who is very suitable for training to participate in security, or who can go out on missions like you in the future?"

He is becoming increasingly aware of the importance of this matter; this security force may not be necessary, but it cannot be absent.

Quan Shan said speechlessly, "There are a few, but you've been dragging me around to drive for you all the time, so I haven't had time to train you properly."

"Cough cough." Hu Dahai coughed awkwardly upon hearing this. This was a solution he had no other choice but to ask Quan Shan to drive, since he had a car but couldn't drive.

"Then I'll go out less often in the future, so you'll have more time."

Hu Dahai kept his word and did indeed reduce the time he spent going out for the next week or so.

Hu Dahai didn't go out to take a look until the Haiya women's clothing stores in Jiaxing and Shaoxing were finished.

However, this time, Hu Dahai wasn't alone; Huang Yunya, Huang Liang, and Huang Pingping were also there.

After a period of training, Huang Liang and Huang Pingping are now capable of working independently, and their products are selling well.

Huang Liang, in particular, already has sales experience and doesn't need much instruction, so Huang Yunya is currently mainly teaching him how to manage people.

Huang Yaoyao, on the other hand, was relatively inexperienced at the beginning, but after gaining experience in the store for a period of time, she has made some progress.

Hu Dahai has a temporary plan to let Huang Liang handle the Shaocheng branch, while Huang Yaoyao will go to the Jiacheng branch, so that each branch will have its own informant.

Hu Dahai trusted these two people quite a bit.

Of course, trust is trust, but Hu Dahai has already told Wang Jian to have their people keep an eye on things here regularly, and to report to him immediately if anything happens or changes occur.

As for the store manager of Jiacheng store, Hu Dahai and Huang Yunya decided after some consideration to transfer an experienced employee from the Hangzhou branch to be the store manager.

When they arrived at the Shaoxing branch, all kinds of clothing and mannequins were already there.

Huang Yunya immediately led her people to make the arrangements.

The layout of the shops here is very similar to that of shops in Hangzhou, except that there is no second floor, so the warehouse is located at the back of the shop.

It took several people a whole day to finally get the Shaocheng branch all set up.

It was getting late, so Hu Dahai immediately took Huang Yunya home. If they went home too late, Huang Yunya would inevitably have to give him a hard time.

However, after Huang Yunya returned home and finished eating, her mother came in again and found Huang Yunya: "Xiaoya, I have something I want to talk to you about."
