Chapter 729

Wen Han said to Hou Laoban, "Hou Laoban, you still need to be careful; this woman has lived with Director Qi and is someone who has experienced big scenes."

"Yes, I understand, Second Master Wen, you can rest assured; if I mess up this little thing, how could I have the face to come see you again?" Hou Laoban said and then walked out of the room.

"Brother Jianqiang, have a seat." Wen Han gestured for me to sit down.

I sat down on the sofa,

"Brother Jianqiang, you really plan to retire on that whatever ridge?" Wen Han asked.

"Yeah, that's not bad, Mr. Wen, if you have time go take a look. It's very suitable for retirement." I said.

"By the way, Tian Shi told me you are helping him develop Zaocheng's tourism industry."

"How did you suddenly become interested in this?" Wen Han asked again.

"Mr. Wen, to be frank, I grew up in a mountain village since childhood. This time after returning from Sijiucheng,"

"since I had nothing to do, I returned to my hometown, Gourd Village."

"The whole village was empty; you couldn't see a soul."

"Why, everyone went to the city to work,"

"the mountain village now has no one willing to stay."

"I was thinking about this; our Gourd Village's houses are all stone-built, very beautiful."

"and the mountain area is also very beautiful,"

"why can't we develop tourism?"

"You know tourism projects are very hot right now."

"So I discussed this with Tian Shi."

"Tian Shi also wants to achieve something in Zaocheng."

"So we came up with the idea, which is to prepare to develop Zaocheng's tourism project." I explained to Wen Han.

After Wen Han heard me finish speaking,

he clapped and said, "I didn't expect, Brother Jianqiang, that you are still an ambitious person."

"Preparing to revive the mountain village and develop tourism."

"Not bad, do you need my help?" Wen Han asked.

"Mr. Wen, for now we don't need it; we, at present, only have some ideas,"

"furthermore, it's hard to say how the market prospects actually are."

"If Mr. Wen follows us and doesn't make money,"

"that wouldn't work."

"We'll first feel our way; if we encounter difficulties during the process and need Mr. Wen's help, we'll then ask him to lend a hand."

"Okay, then that's settled."

"Brother Jianqiang, where did Yang Tao put the real contract?"

"They've been gone for a while; Hou Laoban won't make a mistake in his work, will he?"

"Mr. Wen, you're worrying too much; Hou Laoban is still reliable in his work. I believe he will soon bring back the real contract with Yang Tao. Mr. Wen, you have agreed to give Yang Tao fifty million."

"Let's talk about the money later,"

"I'll first look at the contract."

"What does a woman need that much money for?"

"Like this: once we get the real contract, I'll take Yang Tao away,"

"then in Sijiucheng I'll give her the money." Wen Han said coldly,

"Wen Han's meaning is clear: he has no intention of giving Yang Tao any money at all."

"Taking Yang Tao to Sijiucheng is tantamount to making her disappear."

I said: "Okay, Mr. Wen, when Yang Tao comes later, I'll tell her to go with you to Sijiucheng to get the money."

"My words had just fallen,"

"when I heard footsteps running from outside the door,"

"the meeting room door burst open, and I saw Hou Laoban rushing in, drenched in sweat,"

"\"Second Master Wen, it's bad. Yang Tao has run away. \""

"\"She ran away. Where did she go? \" Wen Han hastily rose from the sofa."

"\"Hou Laoban, what happened? Please speak slowly. \" I also stood up."

"\"This is how it happened: ah, I didn't expect this woman to be so crafty. I was driving, bringing her along."

"She told me in the car that she had hidden the real contract in a guesthouse in Lanling County."

"She told me to drive to Lanling County."

"I didn't think much and just drove to Lanling County."

"We hadn't even left Xin Cheng when she suddenly said she was hungry and hadn't eaten yet."

"She told me to stop the car; she got out to go buy a piece of bread to eat."

"I agreed."

"I waited in the car, watching her enter a bakery in the shopping mall."

"But after waiting a while, she still didn't come out."

"So I got out of the car to look for Yang Tao."

"After arriving at the shop, I asked the clerk."

"They said they hadn't seen any woman come to buy bread."

"That's strange. I clearly saw her enter the bakery; how could the clerk not have seen her?"

I started arguing with the bakery staff.

Just arguing is useless.

I again looked for Yang Tao in the bakery,

It turned out the bakery had two doors, with another door leading directly to the mall.

The staff had been busy, so they probably didn't see Yang Tao come in.

I ran into the mall,

The mall was full of people,

Only then did I realize that woman Yang Tao had run away.

I hurried back to inform Second Master Wen.

"What should we do?" Hou Laoban said, tears streaming down.

After hearing Hou Laoban, Wen Han's face looked grim,

He suddenly raised a hand and slapped Hou Laoban's face,

"Mess, you can't even handle this small thing. What can you do."

"Sorry, Second Master Wen, it's my fault. I'll have everyone in the hotel go out to look for Yang Tao." Hou Laoban said and then knelt down before Wen Han.

"Get lost. Where are you going to look?" Wen Han said, pointing at Hou Laoban.

Hou Laoban dared not speak,

using his eyes to sneak a look at me,

"Mr. Wen, don't make things hard for Hou Laoban. He didn't want this to happen either; that woman is really not simple." I spoke up for Hou Laoban on the side.

"Now take people to check the train station in Zaocheng, then ask taxis if they've taken Yang Tao." Wen Han ordered Hou Laoban.

"Okay, Second Master Wen, I'm going now—I'll dig three feet deep if I have to, I'll find Yang Tao." Hou Laoban said, then quickly got up from the ground and ran off in a panic.

"Should we get Tian Shi to help look?" I said to Wen Han.

"In a moment, I'll tell Tian Shi, Brother Jianqiang, you're very familiar with this woman Yang Tao,

you say she ran away—where would she go?" Wen Han looked at me and asked.

"Mr. Wen, I think Yang Tao will run toward Sijiucheng.

Because Wang Ge is in Sijiucheng,

now only Wang Ge can protect her." I said to Wen Han.

"Right, that makes sense. Okay, I'm heading back to Sijiucheng now.

If Tian Shi gets any news about Yang Tao here, just bring her straight to Sijiucheng and deliver her to my home." Wen Han said.

"Okay, I understand, Mr. Wen. I'm now looking for Tian Shi to ask for his help.

look for Yang Tao." I said and then hurried out of the meeting room.

That day Wen Han returned to Sijiucheng.

In the afternoon, Xiao Long sent me a message saying they had arrived in Huaihai.

They had already settled down.

I was in the office reporting this matter to Tian Shi.

Tian Shi heard that Yang Tao had safely reached Huaihai,

he was very pleased,

so he said to me,

"Have Xiao Long stay with Yang Tao in Huaihai.

Don't let anything happen.

"Rush to Huaihai, find Zhuang Shi, and contact the Liu Family."

"I'll go today." I said.

At that moment my phone rang,

I saw it was a call from Ding Li,

I quickly answered,

"Ding Li, what's up?"

"Brother Zhao, Hao Tao is back again.

"You were right, the people sent to pick him up are assassins from the Wang Family. This guy has been seriously injured and is being treated in the hospital on the mine."

I quickly said, "Ding Li, the hospital at the mine probably won't do. I'll have Dean Yang from the city hospital bring people over to assist you; we must keep this guy alive.

"He's very important."

"Okay, Brother Zhao, quickly send experts over; this guy has a gunshot wound." Ding Li said.

I hung up the phone and then told Tian Shi, "Tian Shi, I need to rush to Qi He Mine; Hao Tao was beaten up by the assassin the Wang Family sent out.

We must keep him alive."
