Chapter 3001

Seeing Jin Lulu's fierce appearance, Zhang Biao smiled and said: "Miss Jin, does this matter have anything to do with you too?"

Jin Lulu looked at Zhang Biao unhappily and said: "Of course it has something to do with me! I invested money in it! We reported it to your police, but you haven't found out anything yet, so we can only investigate it ourselves!"

"Then... have you found any clues?" Zhang Biao asked the daughter of Secretary Jin with a fawning smile, and also asked the question Money Leopard cared about most.

Jin Lulu said fiercely: "Of course we found out. If we hadn't, would I say he did it!" As she spoke, Jin Lulu glared fiercely at Money Leopard, who looked extremely embarrassed.

"You can eat food randomly, but you can't speak randomly. Everyone is doing business. Although Tong Lan, your bar's business is indeed better than mine, I wouldn't go to smash your bar. I, Money Leopard, don't have that little tolerance..." Money Leopard was still playing dumb, refusing to admit it.

Zhao Desan started speaking at this time. He chuckled and said to Money Leopard: "Boss Jin, but I'm really sorry, we investigated and investigated, and in the end, we really found out that those people were ordered by you!"

"Director Liu, you... what evidence do you have to say that those people were ordered by me? You... what evidence can you prove? Everything must be based on evidence." Money Leopard was still smiling, pretending to be calm, making his final struggle.

"That's right, Director Liu, our police officers have also been investigating this matter. Everything must be based on evidence. If you really have evidence that Boss Jin sent people to smash the bar, then as a leader of the Public Security Bureau, I will definitely enforce the law impartially and give Ms. Tong Lan justice." Zhang Biao's words, which seemed to be on the neutral side, were actually helping Money Leopard.

Zhao Desan knew that even if the Public Security Bureau really investigated the truth of the matter, Zhang Biao would definitely suppress it for Money Leopard. So he deliberately invited Zhang Biao over today to present evidence in front of him, making him unable to argue. Zhao Desan smiled calmly and said: "Bureau Chief Zhang, today I, Comrade Xiao Zhao, invited you over to show you the evidence. Wuzi, take it out and let Bureau Chief Zhang see."

Han Wu nodded knowingly, took out his phone, opened the video recording, and let Zhang Biao watch it. After watching the video, Money Leopard realized that he had fallen into Zhao Desan's trap today. It turned out that this guy came prepared, and Zhang Biao was also deliberately invited by him. For a moment, Money Leopard was speechless, his expression extremely embarrassed. He simply put on a look of 'a dead pig isn't afraid of boiling water' and said: "Since you have the evidence, I, Money Leopard, have nothing to say. What do you want to do?"

Zhao Desan smiled gently and said unhurriedly: "Bureau Chief Zhang is also present today. As far as I know, that counts as a public security case, right? If it follows normal procedures, the main culprit will definitely be subject to criminal punishment, right? Bureau Chief, don't you agree?" Zhao Desan handed the initiative to Zhang Biao. As a police officer, he wanted to see how he planned to handle it in the face of such a situation.

Zhang Biao smiled awkwardly and nodded, saying: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you're right. It is a public security case, but... but Comrade Xiao Zhao, you also know that Boss Jin and I are old friends. How about this? Anyway, no one was hurt. Let Boss Jin compensate you for the losses in the bar, and let's settle this matter privately. Comrade Xiao Zhao, what do you think?"

Zhao Desan naturally understood the principle of 'forgiving others when you can', and he didn't want to put Zhang Biao in the middle and make an enemy for himself. He nodded and said: "Bureau Chief, I agree with your idea. It just depends on whether Boss Jin is willing to settle it privately or publicly?"

Seeing Zhao Desan's attitude was very clear and he didn't want to make things difficult for him, Zhang Biao looked at him gratefully and then said to Money Leopard, whose face was iron-blue: "Old Jin, this matter is your fault. You're too narrow-minded. Everyone is doing business. If you can't compete with Tong Lan, you should look for problems in yourself. How can you do such a thing? Anyway, the bar suffered such heavy losses. It's not right for you to cause trouble, but who should take care of it if you don't? You are considered a person of status in Xijing. Apologize to others, compensate for the losses, and let everyone take a step back..." Zhang Biao also felt uncomfortable being in the middle, but these words were very open and decent. On one hand, he gave Money Leopard a step down, and on the other hand, he also showed that he, the backer, was very generous. "Old Jin, be straightforward. What's the big deal? Hurry up and solve the problem first!"

Although Money Leopard knew that in the face of Zhao Desan's ironclad evidence today, he couldn't deny it at all, this old guy had always loved money and valued it highly. This time, the losses in Tong Lan's bar were so heavy. If he had to compensate, he would definitely bleed heavily. However, the old fox couldn't help but give Zhang Biao face. He secretly glanced at Zhang Biao and saw him waiting for his statement with an extremely resentful look. Money Leopard was a bit chess-like, but in the end, he nodded and agreed to compensate.

The reason Zhang Biao had always been willing to stand up for Money Leopard was that, in addition to the exchange of interests between the two, there was another unknown secret: the two were originally high school classmates. After graduating from high school, they joined the army together and were assigned to the same company. After retiring, both returned to Xijing. Zhang Biao was assigned to the police station as a police officer. Because he knew how to act, his official career was smooth, while Money Leopard went astray and mixed up in the underworld. Although they took two different paths, they were ultimately inseparable. Coupled with many years of friendship, Zhang Biao had always been the strongest backer behind Money Leopard. And in the process of Money Leopard washing his identity later, Zhang Biao took care of Money Leopard a lot, and Money Leopard also returned the favor, constantly paying tribute to him with money. The iron relationship was evident. So much so that among the business people in Xijing, Money Leopard was one of the few big shots who didn't have to call Zhang Biao 'Bureau Chief' in private.

This old bastard is going to piss me off! Zhang Biao cursed Money Leopard twice in his heart, and then said to him: "Old Jin, although I have a good friendship with you, this matter is indeed your fault. Standing on a neutral side, I think you have to solve this matter quickly." While saying this, Zhang Biao glanced at Jin Lulu and muttered in his heart: Otherwise, once this little girl is angered, who knows what crazy things that little bitch will do!

Facing this Money Leopard, who had sat firmly as a big shot in the Xijing underworld for twenty years, Zhang Biao had to sigh in his heart: Old Jin, you don't know, Zhao Desan is behind Provincial Party Deputy Secretary Su, and she is also a member of the Provincial Party Committee. Besides that, there is Jin Lulu. She is the daughter of Secretary Jin. You want me to fight Secretary Jin head-on? It's useless. Even if I break my head and bleed, I won't win. Everyone knows the principle that a higher official suppresses a lower one. Dare to fight Secretary Jin head-on? Unless you want to die. With Secretary Jin's power, crushing Zhang Biao, a small municipal bureau-level leader, is as easy as crushing an ant.

Money Leopard knew he couldn't escape today, and Zhang Biao had said so, so he could only go down the slope, glanced at Zhang Biao, gave him a wink, and stood up, saying: "I'll go to the restroom first, and we'll talk when I come back!" As he spoke, he stood up and walked out of the private room.

Zhang Biao understood that Money Leopard wanted to talk to him privately. After Money Leopard left for a few minutes, Zhang Biao also made an excuse to pee and left the private room. Seeing the two leave one after another, the group led by Zhao Desan looked at each other knowingly. Zhao Desan greeted everyone with a smile: "Everyone, eat some dishes first, and wait for Boss Jin and Bureau Chief Zhang to finish discussing and come back!"

Black Dog couldn't help but ask Zhao Desan: "Brother Liu, do you think that old bastard will agree to compensate?"

"The situation is right in front of us. We have evidence in our hands. Unless he doesn't even give Bureau Chief Zhang face, he must compensate." Zhao Desan had already seen the situation and said confidently.

After Zhang Biao and Money Leopard met in an empty private room, Zhang Biao first scolded Money Leopard angrily, and then immediately said: "Old Jin, but this matter must be solved, otherwise who knows what crazy things that little bitch, Secretary Jin's daughter, will do!"

Facing his backer, Money Leopard said helplessly: "Damn, I didn't expect that Zhang Hu would actually betray me! I fell into the hands of that kid Zhao Desan today!"

Zhang Biao looked at Money Leopard's unwilling look and had to sigh: "Old Jin, you don't know, that Zhao Desan is behind Provincial Party Deputy Secretary Su, and she also serves as the Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Removing me as bureau chief is just a matter of one sentence. Leaving aside Deputy Secretary Su, isn't there that Jin Lulu? She is the daughter of Secretary Jin. If she slanders me in front of Secretary Jin, won't I be finished? You want me to fight Secretary Jin head-on? Crushing me is as easy as crushing an ant for Secretary Jin!"

Subsequently, Zhang Biao deliberately made the situation sound more serious, so as not to let Money Leopard say that his old brother didn't save him. "Old Jin, do you think I really don't want to take care of this? If I hadn't been suppressing it from above, the people below would have investigated that you sent your men to do it! But today, that guy Zhao Desan has your evidence in his hands, so I can't handle this matter! If I offend Secretary Jin's daughter, I will destroy my own future!"

Money Leopard heard Zhang Biao make the situation sound very serious, and his heart felt like it had been splashed with a basin of cold water. "Then what to do? Or... just settle it privately?"

"Nonsense, of course settle it privately. Do you still want to settle it publicly? Settling it privately is better for everyone. Settling it publicly will have a very bad influence on me. The amount of money doesn't matter, the key is peace of mind. And Tong Lan asking Zhao Desan to negotiate with you is probably also wanting to find back some face. I think, Old Jin, you should lower your posture today, apologize, and pay some money. They will basically find back their face. To put it bluntly, just treat it as if nothing happened. On one hand, you sent people to smash someone else's field, which is quite impressive. On the other hand, let the other side recover some face. That's it." As a leader of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Zhang Biao had dealt with the underworld too much and knew the essence of it. So he continued: "You should still condescend, compensate Tong Lan for some losses, and I guess this matter can be settled. That Zhao Desan can't find any more trouble for you."
