Tang Rao glared at the squad leader, his face full of astonishnt.
"Fuck, you're so shaless." Tang Rao pointed at the squad leader, his eyelids flipping.
"Shaless? Compared to your soliciting prostitutes, what is this? So, can we go now?" the squad leader asked.
Buzz!
At this mont, the squad leader's phone rang again.
The chief of the brigade?
Damn it, I'm not picking up, I'm going to stand my ground today!
Less than five seconds after the chief's call ended, the phone vibrated wildly again.
The deputy director!
The squad leader swallowed, staring blankly at the phone.
Can I still not pick up this ti?
Definitely not.
If I don't pick it up, I'll probably be out of a job tomorrow.
"Police comrade, you have another call. Still not picking it up?" Tang Rao said.
Helplessly, the squad leader pressed the answer button.
"Jing Hu, pull your team back now!" a straightforward voice ca from the other end as soon as he answered.
"But deputy director..."
"No buts! I'm telling you, if you've decided to dig your own grave, don't drag down with you! If you touch anyone today, not only you, but I'll be screwed tomorrow morning too!" There was a loud shout from the phone.
The deputy director's voice was so loud that even without speakerphone, everyone could hear it.
Jing Hu looked at Tang Rao in shock, wondering what kind of background this guy had.
Even the deputy director has to step down...
Could he be so big shot's son?
"Jing Hu, did you hear ? Do you want to have Director Gu and the mayor call you too?" the deputy director shouted.
By this point, Jing Hu had completely lost his temper, with Director Gu... the mayor...
What the hell.
I'm just… I just ca… to raid prostitution.
"Understood, deputy director." Jing Hu replied, then hung up the phone, seeming to have lost all his strength.
What could he do? He was just a raid prostitution squad leader, hardly effective at all.
The opponent was too powerful.
"Let's go, pull back!" Jing Hu roared, clenching his teeth.
"Wait a second." Tang Rao called out to Jing Hu.
"You're Jing Hu, right?" Tang Rao asked.
Jing Hu's scalp tingled, seeing that his job was probably going to be lost.
"Yes." But he nodded anyway, defeated but not disgraced.
"Are you interested in working in Tiandu? If you are, call this number, and ask for 'Big Eyes'." Tang Rao handed over a piece of paper with a number on it, Yan Zhengda's.
Jing Hu stood with his mouth open, not quite knowing what to say.
"It's got a much better future than being a raid prostitution squad leader." Tang Rao grinned.
Jing Hu was a good guy, of course, Tang Rao letting him go to the Special Ninth Departnt wasn't just because he was a good guy.
Being a good guy was one thing, but the key was that this guy had strong Spirit Root, just yet to be activated.
Although a bit old, with proper training, he still had a promising future.
...
It wasn't until Jing Hu and his team had left that Wang Xiyang finally lifted her head, looking at Tang Rao with her mouth open, unable to speak.
This Tang Rao, with just one phone call, had resolved the situation.
And even made the deputy director of the public security bureau personally call, who... what kind of person was he?
"It was you who called the police, right?" Tang Rao looked at Wang Xiyang and asked lightly.
"I... I just..." Wang Xiyang didn't know what to say.
Her so-called sense of superiority was utterly shattered just now.
"Don't deny it, I, Tang Rao, am not that stupid. Speaking of which, since you called the police, why did you co here yourself? Are you sacrificing yourself just to set up? What huge grudge do we have against each other?"
"It's not that! It's... it was Director Guo, Director Guo ca to my room, wanting to... I had no choice but to rush over." Wang Xiyang spoke sowhat unclearly, but Tang Rao still understood.
Director Guo...
The entertainnt circle, as expected, is quite chaotic.
"Alright, you can co and go as you please, I'm going to sleep." Tang Rao dove into the bed, paying no further attention to Wang Xiyang.
It's already one-thirty, I'm dead tired, okay?
...
At eight o'clock in the morning, Tang Rao got up.
Wang Xiyang was already gone.
Tang Rao didn't mind, freshened up, and then left the room.
There's still stuff to do today, need to go to Baishan to find Nine-leaf Blood Ginseng.
Tang Rao knocked on the door for a solid two minutes before that fool Zhou Boxiong ca to open it.
"Boss Tang... isn't it too early... what ti is it even..." Zhou Boxiong said while yawning.
Tang Rao kicked Zhou Boxiong into the room.
"You have five minutes to get everything ready for ."
"That's inhuman!"
Five minutes later, Tang Rao checked out of the hotel, stepped out, and hailed a taxi directly to Zhou Boxiong's house.
That Nine-leaf Blood Ginseng, Zhou Boxiong's grandfather had seen it, need to visit and ask him about it first.
Can't just blindly go up the mountain and search, wouldn't be able to find anything.
About half an hour later, the two arrived at the place.
Shifang County, Sujiang River Town, Baishan West Slope, Zhou Boxiong's ho is right in the town.
Since it was almost nine o'clock, they didn't go to his house, but directly to the storefront.
Zhou Boxiong's family deals in dicinal herbs, selling high-quality goods and also cheap inferior goods.
After all, whether you can buy good stuff depends on personal judgnt.
"Dad, your son is here! Boss Tang is here too!" Zhou Boxiong shouted as soon as he arrived at the door.
Imdiately, a middle-aged man ca out of the store.
Not very tall, quite slim compared to Zhou Boxiong's stout body.
However, he looked very solid, dark, and quite upright.
"Is this Tang Rao? Please co in, I, Lao Zhou, really need to thank you." Zhou Quanyou imdiately said with a smile.
Tang Rao didn't stand on ceremony, entered the house, and sat down.
"Co, try this, Blood Ginseng Tea, it's a unique secret of our Zhou family." Zhou Quanyou brewed a cup of tea for Tang Rao.
The rich aroma was refreshing.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou." Tang Rao picked up the tea, took a sip, and then finished it.
"Boss Tang, how is it? Our family's Blood Ginseng Tea is pretty good, right? I tell you, I only get to drink it during the New Year." Zhou Boxiong said.
"Hmm, your dad is indeed much more reliable than you." Tang Rao nodded solemnly.
"Damn!"
Zhou Boxiong had already briefed his father about Tang Rao, and Zhou Quanyou was also very careful; the Young Master of Sui City Huangchao Industry.
To be dormitory brothers with his own son, his ancestral grave must be smoking!
But soon, after finding out that Tang Rao had no airs, the conversation opened up.
"Uncle Zhou, Boxiong must have told you, I ca to Baishan mainly to look for that Nine-leaf Blood Ginseng." After a while, Tang Rao spoke.
"Ai... about that, I'm not really clear. You have to ask Boxiong's grandfather, but the old man is very secretive about that matter, rarely willing to talk about it." Zhou Quanyou said.
"Is the old man here?" Tang Rao asked.
"He is, but..."
"No worries, Uncle Zhou, I just want to visit, if the old man doesn't want to say anything, I won't force him." Tang Rao said with a smile.
"In that case, alright, you co with ." Zhou Quanyou stood up and led Tang Rao to the backyard.
As for Zhou Boxiong, he simply refused to leave, constantly sipping on Blood Ginseng Tea, each sip savored.
