Chapter 663: Arranging with Cui Chengshan

After I finished speaking, Shi Yong was eating kebabs, nodding nonstop.

After I and Shi Yong had eaten,

Then Shi Yong and I went to a hotel.

Upon arriving at the hotel,

I originally wanted to contact Cui Rulin to talk about the Cui family, but I thought it would be better to speak with Cui Chengshan. He is still the leader and more likely to listen to me.

I took out my phone, found Cui Chengshan's number, and dialed it.

Cui Chengshan answered the phone quickly,

"Mr. Zhao, hello, it's so late—what's the matter?"

"Chengshan, it's so late, I have something to ask you. Today I was eating at the food street in Xin Cheng when I happened to encounter a car racing wildly on the food street."

You know the food street is a pedestrian zone—no cars allowed.

The driver was extremely arrogant, so Shi Yong and I blocked him,

we started arguing,

Shi Yong hit him,

he then summoned a bunch of people to attack us,

he claimed to be a member of the Cui family.

"Chengshan, does the Cui family have young people like this?" I asked Cui Chengshan over the phone.

"Mr. Zhao, I know whose child that is—it's my brother's son. He idles all day, stirs up trouble, but he didn't hurt you, did he?"

"I've already apologized to you. Later, I will definitely make that guy come to your door to apologize." Cui Chengshan said sincerely.

"Chengshan, this apology is trivial; the reason I called you today is mainly to discuss this matter."

"It's that members of your Cui family have become one of the worst factors affecting Zaocheng's public security."

"We plan to develop tourism projects in the future, and you still want to advance further."

"If Zaocheng's public security is poor, who would want to come here for tourism?"

"Once they arrive, they get into fights and are bullied."

"How can we develop our tourism project then?"

"Chengshan, I originally intended to speak with your father, but then I thought, you are the future head of the Cui family, so I should talk to you instead."

"If you want to go higher and farther,"

"that means you need to manage the Cui family members well, especially the third and fourth generations, so they don't cause trouble,"

"otherwise, you'll lose big over small matters."

"Mr. Zhao, you are absolutely right,"

"I understand your meaning; tomorrow I will return home to hold a family meeting, making the parents restrain their children, and I will show no leniency."

"Only strict management will work."

"We aim to build a tourism city, and public security is key,"

"if visitors come here to tour and even having a meal isn't safe, how can that be acceptable?"

"Mr. Zhao, you can rest assured."

"I will definitely do it well."

"Alright, Chengshan, I trust you, so I'll entrust this matter to you."

"Keeping them in check will also benefit you."

"Shielding them will only keep them from going far and make them prone to trouble."

"Chengshan, there's one more thing I want to ask: what connection does Zaocheng's Ma San have with your family?" I asked.

"Ma San—I know him. He was acquainted with my father. In the past he hung out with Bai Lang. Bai Lang is a relative of my family, so after he came out, he sought my father and then did some work for him." Cui Chengshan said.

"Chengshan, this Ma San is no good. I used to know him as well. Your family associating with such a person is very bad and has an extremely negative impact."

"I advise you,"

"to tell your father to cut ties with Ma San quickly."

"Don't have any further involvement with him."

"Otherwise, if Zaocheng later cracks down on evil, it's uncertain whether it will implicate your Cui family—hard to say."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for the reminder. This matter is too important. I've spoken to my father about it, but he said that Ma San, after coming out, has nothing to do."

"My father, out of old sentiment, let him do some work, contracting street management."

"I will tell my father and immediately sever ties with Ma San." Cui Chengshan said happily.

"Alright, Chengshan, I have nothing else; just these two matters."

"I told you in advance—if anything happens again and I hear Ma San mentioning your Cui family, don't blame me for being impolite." I said and then hung up.

After hanging up the phone,

I then found Tian Shi's phone number,

and dialed it,

after a moment, Tian Shi answered the phone,

"Hello, Tian Shi, it's so late—I'm disturbing your rest."

"Jianqiang, nothing's wrong. I haven't rested yet." Tian Shi said.

"Tian Shi, I have something to report to you."

"Go ahead, Jianqiang."

"It's like this, Tian Shi: tonight Shi Yong and I went to the pedestrian street in Xin Cheng to eat kebabs. Unexpectedly, something happened on the streets of Xin Cheng."

"Someone was driving a car on the pedestrian street, deliberately showing off."

Shi Yong, because he blocked his way, got into an argument with him.

Then that guy actually called more than ten people to surround and beat us.

We started fighting with them.

"Jianqiang, why aren't you injured? Did you contact Sun Ju and have them send police to handle it?" Tian Shi said.

"I didn't contact Sun Ju. From start to finish, I didn't see anyone come to handle it. Tian Shi, we aren't injured.

You can rest assured about this; these few people, Shi Yong and I can handle them easily.

I called today just to tell you something,

that is, Zaocheng's public security needs improvement.

How can there be cars entering and exiting the pedestrian street?

And the fact that fights are being reported shows that Zaocheng still has black evil forces.

If these people aren't cleared, Zaocheng's security won't get better.

Tian Shi, our tourism projects haven't been developed yet,

after development, outsiders come to Zaocheng to travel, and because of a trivial matter they fight and get bullied.

Publicly reporting it would have a huge impact on our Zaocheng.

So now we should seize the chance to improve Zaocheng's security a bit, Tian Shi, this is my personal opinion.

to eliminate future trouble.

Tian Shi said happily on the phone, "Jianqiang, you're absolutely right; this matter is very important. I used to only hear their reports saying how good Zaocheng's security is, and I never went down to see it myself.

Alright, tomorrow I'll hold an on‑site meeting with Sun Ju and give a severe criticism of Sun Ju's work. If such incidents happen again, Sun Ju shouldn't be kept on the job.

Social security is the root of the problem; if a city's social security is poor, who would want to travel here?

Our tourism projects haven't developed a damn thing.

After I discussed with Sun Ju,

we will launch a citywide special operation to sweep away the remaining social scum, so they won't disrupt public security.

Jianqiang, you're at the front, you have frontline information,

If you have anything, tell me directly, let me handle it.

Because some people only report the good and not the bad," Tian Shi said on the phone.

"Tian Shi, as for me, I'm just making a suggestion; what I'm thinking is to prepare for future matters.

Tian Shi, thank you for your trust."

"You're welcome, Jianqiang. Alright, I'm going to call Sun Ju right now to ask about today's situation, why the patrolling security personnel aren't on duty." Tian Shi said and hung up.

I put down the phone,

Shi Yong asked,

"Brother, Ma San ran away; will he go to Ding Li for revenge? Should we give Ding Li a heads‑up?"

I shook my head,

"No need to say, Ma San can't escape; he'll be back soon."

"Where to?" Shi Yong asked.

"To prison; people like that shouldn't be out. Once in prison he'll behave, honestly. Really, he's over fifty and still mixing in society."

I'm fed up with him.

He thinks that no one dares to provoke him,

Hmph, I, Zhao Jianqiang, despise the person who leads a bunch of kids, wreaking havoc, bullying the city, causing terrible influence.

Such a person deserves to die.
