62: A strong response to express apology
"Liu Yong, immediately handle something for me: make the Mao Group completely bankrupt. Simultaneously, check if they have any criminal evidence, and if they do, collect all of it and hand it over to the Official Authorities."
Jiang Chuan's tone was utterly cold as he issued the order directly.
"Understood, Boss Jiang."
Liu Yong heard Jiang Chuan's icy voice and understood that the Mao Group had completely enraged Jiang Chuan; it was the first time he had felt such immense anger from Jiang Chuan.
Liu Yong hung up the phone and immediately contacted his traders to short the entire Mao Group while simultaneously collecting all criminal evidence related to the Mao Group.
"You should also head back and rest early. Tomorrow, go complete the task I assigned you."
Jiang Chuan hung up the phone, took a deep breath to suppress the fury in his heart, and a faint smile appeared on his face as he spoke to Steel Gun King beside him.
"Understood, Brother Jiang."
Steel Gun King nodded respectfully and nervously left the area.
He finally understood what it meant to be a Big Shot: someone who could decide the life or death of a company with a single phone call.
The next day.
News broke on all major platforms that the Mao Group had been shorted by the Tianxia Group.
At the same time, the Mao Group was exposed for various crimes: tax evasion, hiring assassins... a string of criminal evidence sufficient to guarantee that Maoli and his family would spend the rest of their lives in prison.
"Brother Jiang is incredible. In just one night, he sent the opposition straight into the abyss."
Steel Gun King also saw the news and felt extremely fortunate to be following such a powerful and capable boss.
"Everyone, have you all received the money I transferred? Brother Jiang hopes that you won't tell anyone about what happened last night. Brother Jiang also asked me to arrange psychological evaluations for you today, hoping you don't suffer any lasting trauma."
Steel Gun King immediately contacted the Female Internet Celebrities in the group chat and relayed Jiang Chuan's intentions directly.
"Little Steel, don't worry. We will absolutely keep yesterday's events secret and won't tell anyone."
"That's right, Little Steel. I am very tight-lipped. Aside from the people who were present yesterday, nobody will know what happened."
"Little Steel, there's no need for a psychological evaluation. I don't have any issues."
The Female Internet Celebrities received the transfer from Steel Gun King and replied enthusiastically, guaranteeing that the information would not spread, and confirming that they did not require psychological evaluations.
"Alright then. Brother Jiang also asked me to pass along that when you start streaming, you can let him know, and he will gift each of you one hundred exclusive gifts. This is considered Brother Jiang's apology to you."
Steel Gun King looked at the messages in the group chat. He did not force them to undergo psychological evaluations, as they knew their own conditions, and since these people were not short on money, the psychological evaluations naturally cost money, so he told them another piece of good news.
"Okay, Little Steel, please thank Boss Thirteen for me. I will be streaming today, and I welcome Boss Thirteen to my stream."
"Thank you, Boss Thirteen. I plan on starting a stream today too, and I look forward to Boss Thirteen's arrival."
When the Female Internet Celebrities in the group learned that Jiang Chuan would gift them one hundred exclusive gifts today, they became even more excited. Although they were frightened yesterday, the power of money was enough for them to forget everything.
Steel Gun King saw everyone in the group thanking Jiang Chuan, and noting that none of them seemed psychologically troubled, he smiled and said nothing more.
"Brother Jiang, the matter has been handled."
After Steel Gun King finished dealing with these matters, he informed Jiang Chuan immediately.
Jiang Chuan was currently sound asleep in bed and naturally knew nothing about these events.
On the other side.
Wang Cong hadn't slept all night.
Although what happened yesterday wasn't directed at him, seeing the bloody scene truly terrified him. Having grown up pampered, when had he ever encountered such a situation? Fortunately, Jiang Chuan himself was powerful last night; if Jiang Chuan had truly been crippled or killed, he would have suffered too, as Jiang Chuan was backed by the Tianxia Group.
Thinking of this, Wang Cong was filled with fear and immediately suffered from insomnia.
The next day, Wang Cong told Boss Wang about the incident, and Boss Wang also felt a wave of lingering fear upon hearing the news.
He immediately arranged for two top retired soldiers to serve as Bodyguards for Wang Cong, and he also planned to step in and teach the Mao Group a lesson, but upon learning that the Tianxia Group had already acted, he decided not to proceed.
"What happened? Why was Boss Mao shorted by the Tianxia Group overnight and now he's been arrested?"
"Now that Boss Mao has been arrested, will he expose the fact that we hired assassins? If this gets exposed, we are completely finished."
"We absolutely cannot let Boss Mao expose this matter. It looks like we need to use all our connections to make Boss Mao keep his mouth shut permanently."
The three bosses who had pooled money with Maoli to hire the assassins immediately looked terrible upon hearing the news.
They were worried that Maoli would expose the fact that they had hired assassins. The three men exchanged glances, intending to use all their connections to silence Maoli permanently.
Thinking of this.
The three bosses simultaneously made countless calls, spending vast amounts of money and leveraging their connections, but they received one result: they could not interfere. The personnel who arrested Maoli this time were from the Capital City.
Upon hearing this, the three bosses completely despaired.
Since personnel from the Capital City were handling the case, it was impossible for them to intervene. Instantly, the three bosses were panic-stricken and terrified to the extreme.
When Jiang Chuan woke up, he naturally had no idea that so much had happened.
He received Steel Gun King's message and simply replied with one sentence: "Well done."
Jiang Chuan's emotions came and went quickly.
That day, he took Lin Xiaoxiao to an amusement park, and he also planned to take her to see his sister-in-law, Mu Qingcheng, but Mu Qingcheng had been busy with various promotions and events recently and was not currently in Magic City, so there was nothing they could do.
Night fell.
Jiang Chuan and the others had been in Magic City for two days.
Lin Xiaoxiao also needed to return to North of the River, as she still had to prepare for school.
Jiang Chuan and Xu Jia also planned to accompany Lin Xiaoxiao back to North of the River, after all, their most important reason for coming here this time was to accompany Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Little Chuan, I failed to notice what happened yesterday beforehand, and that is my fault. Today, I plan to treat you to a meal to express my apologies. Don't worry, this time I specifically prepared two retired soldiers to act as Bodyguards; nothing will go wrong."
Just as Jiang Chuan and Lin Xiaoxiao were planning to leave on a private plane, Wang Cong's call came through.
"Brother Wang, yesterday's incident wasn't your fault; nobody could have known these things would happen. I'm preparing to return to North of the River now, so there's no need for a meal. You can treat us next time you have the chance."
"Little Chuan, please don't leave. I didn't sleep all last night because I felt uneasy. After all, this is my territory, and you were nearly put in mortal danger. If I don't treat you to this meal, I might not be able to sleep."
Wang Cong replied with a wry smile upon learning that Jiang Chuan was planning to leave.
Hearing Wang Cong speak like this, Jiang Chuan didn't know how to respond. He looked at Lin Xiaoxiao beside him, and after hearing Xiao Xiao say she could return by herself and that he shouldn't worry about her, he could only agree to Wang Cong's invitation for a meal.
"Brother Wang, tell me the address, and Xu Jia and I will head over right away."
"Alright then, I'll be waiting for you at Tan's Official Cuisine."
