Chapter 261: Cracking an Arms Deal
Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Just call me A Jun; Sir Chen is merely a facade."
Guan Shanhai laughed loudly, "Since that's the case, I'll be bold and call you A Jun."
Chen Jiajun nodded and had tea served: "Do you know why Zunni Wang suddenly moved against you?"
Speaking of this matter, Guan Shanhai's expression turned somewhat unsightly.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Actually, I knew long ago that this fellow Zunni Wang had a rebellious streak, so I've been guarding against him all these years. I never expected him to be so deranged as to move against me."
Come to think of it, Zunni Wang was previously just an inconspicuous Majai under Guan Shanhai.
That he could have what he has today is thanks to Guan Shanhai's patronage.
Even many of the channels he currently holds were known through Guan Shanhai.
It's just that what no one expected was that after this fellow went out on his own, he not only crazily competed for business with Guan Shanhai but even had conflicts over pricing.
Chen Jiajun smiled and shook his head, saying, "Actually, these are not the main reasons."
"Hmm?" Guan Shanhai was old and shrewd; he quickly heard that there was another meaning in Chen Jiajun's words.
Chen Jiajun did not hide it either and nodded: "So, this matter is actually a coincidence. I happened to be investigating another matter and didn't expect to run into this."
"Then... is it convenient to talk about it?" Guan Shanhai asked tentatively.
Chen Jiajun pondered for a moment, then said to Guan Shanhai: "You have been in this line of work for a long time; I wonder if you have heard of an organization called the Ether Society?"
"Ether Society." Guan Shanhai immediately showed a look of surprise: "Aren't these guys usually active in those countries in Europe and the Americas?"
Chen Jiajun sneered and said: "Are they eyeing Asia now? To be precise, they should be eyeing Hong Kong."
"The root cause of this matter is still the handiwork of the Ether Society. They spent a large sum of money to purchase arms from Zunni Wang, with the goal of making Zunni Wang compete with you, so as to bring both of your houses down. By then, they could very easily control the underground arms trade in Hong Kong."
Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Guan Shanhai could not help but gasp.
Chen Jiajun continued: "Last time, because of the Laundry Powder affair, I had already clashed with the Ether Society. This group of guys has been stirring up trouble in Hong Kong, and I have been unhappy with them for a long time."
Hearing this, Guan Shanhai gave a bitter smile and said: "The other side's power is so great; relying solely on me and Zunni Wang, we certainly cannot confront the Ether Society. Not to mention that this bastard Zunni Wang is bent on expansion and may not necessarily listen to me."
Chen Jiajun stared at Guan Shanhai and said: "Uncle Hai, what if you add me?"
"Hmm? A Jun, you want to enter the fray yourself?" This really gave Guan Shanhai a shock.
One must know that after Chen Jiajun washed his hands of the business, he had not concerned himself with such matters for a long time.
Perhaps he alone facing an international criminal organization like the Ether Society would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, but adding Chen Jiajun would be different.
Chen Jiajun smiled and said: "Our Hong Kong territory is already very crowded; it cannot accommodate another organization stirring up trouble in Hong Kong. What do you think?"
Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Guan Shanhai suddenly felt his blood boil: "Since you, A Jun, have said so, then this old bag of bones of mine doesn't mind fighting them once more."
"How did you handle things, actually letting that old thing Guan Shanhai get away?" Du Qi widened his eyes.
Zunni Wang looked strange: "What does this have to do with you? Don't you just want the arms?"
Du Qi immediately knew he had made a slip of the tongue and quickly made up for it: "This batch of goods was snatched from that old thing Guan Shanhai's hands. What if he comes to find trouble?"
Zunni Wang did not care about the loophole in Du Qi's words and waved his hand irritably: "You don't need to worry about that. I have already issued a bounty; I will definitely send people to finish off that old guy."
Du Qi could not say much more and could only instruct: "Zunni, what I want is a long-term, reliable partner. I don't want so many twists and turns when we cooperate."
Zunni hurriedly said: "Rest assured, I will definitely finish off that old guy Guan Shanhai as soon as possible."
Du Qi nodded and said: "Zunni, as long as you finish off Guan Shanhai, our Boss has even bigger business to hand over to you."
Zunni Wang's eyes suddenly lit up: "How big?"
Du Qi smiled and said: "A big business deal of 20 million US dollars, is that exciting enough?"
"20 million US dollars, that's a business worth over a hundred million." Zunni Wang's eyes had already turned into the shape of banknotes.
Du Qi patted Zunni Wang on the shoulder and said: "So, you have to finish it quickly."
"I know." Zunni Wang gritted his teeth: "Absolutely no one can stop me from making money."
In the conference room, Li Shutang walked in wearing his police uniform.
Although he did not know what matter Chen Jiajun was meeting him for, out of respect for the credit he had earned last time, he still came to pay a visit.
After Chen Jiajun saw Li Shutang, he immediately laughed: "Uncle Hai, let me introduce you. This is the top dog in our Chinese Police Force, Assistant Commissioner Li Shutang."
Hearing Chen Jiajun's introduction, Guan Shanhai did not dare to be arrogant.
He immediately stood up and shook hands with Li Shutang.
After all, for an arms dealer like him to be able to meet the high-level officials of the Police Force without being arrested, it could be considered basking in Chen Jiajun's light.
"I have heard of Uncle Hai's reputation. I wonder what business you two have in coming to find me this time?" Li Shutang was quite vigilant.
Chen Jiajun lit a Cigar and then smiled, saying: "We are old friends; you don't need to be so vigilant against me, right?"
Li Shutang sneered and said: "That would have to be asked of those rivals who were schemed to death by you."
Chen Jiajun shook his head and gave a bitter smile: "Alright, enough small talk. We two are here to provide you with a piece of intelligence."
"Intelligence? What intelligence requires you two big shots to tell me in person?" Li Shutang said with a frown.
"An arms deal worth 20 million US dollars; I wonder if Li Sir is interested?" Chen Jiajun had the expression of someone who had Li Shutang figured out.
"20 million US dollars in arms?" Hearing this news, Li Shutang's heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.
Seeing Chen Jiajun give a wink, Uncle Hai started to introduce it directly.
Zunni Wang was, to a greater or lesser extent, a figure and should also be on the police's radar.
It was just because most of his business before was done abroad that the police did not move against him.
But according to Uncle Hai's narrative, Li Shutang discovered that this matter was not simple.
"Uncle Hai, if I remember correctly, this Zunni Wang used to be with you, right?" Li Shutang said with a suspicious look.
Guan Shanhai did not deny it and said directly: "That's right, this turncoat Zunni Wang did indeed follow me before, but a few years ago he went out on his own."
"This time he raided my Warehouse, it was also to complete this deal, so Li Sir doesn't need to doubt it at all; just go out and ask around and you will know."
Hearing Guan Shanhai's frank words, Li Shutang became somewhat conflicted.
Since the two of them dared to speak of this matter, then naturally there would be no problem.
At the very least, Chen Jiajun would not use such low-level tactics to deceive him.
However, he always felt there was something fishy about this: "Sir Chen, what exactly are you planning? If you don't explain it clearly, then don't blame me for being unable to help."
Chen Jiajun, smoking a Cigar, calmly spat out one sentence: "CIA, is that clear enough?"
Li Shutang's expression changed instantly, and he no longer brought up this topic: "Then where is this Zunni Wang's Warehouse?"
Chen Jiajun said indifferently: "Mingxin Hospital."
"Ah?" Li Shutang's eyes widened instantly.
The fact that Zunni Wang's Warehouse was at Mingxin Hospital was something Lao Yu had returned to tell Chen Jiajun.
When he rescued Guan Shanhai at that time, he discovered that Zunni Wang's men were transporting all of Guan Shanhai's weapons onto an ambulance.
Being able to make Mingxin Hospital dispatch an ambulance to transport goods, one didn't even need to think to know that this guy Zunni Wang definitely had some unspeakable dealings with certain people inside Mingxin Hospital.
It was just that the matter of Mingxin Hospital was somewhat complicated.
This hospital was established by several Big Bosses like Huo Yingdong, and in fact, it was also a charitable act.
It was specifically for providing medical services to those poor people.
It could be said that it had an excellent reputation locally in Hong Kong, so if they acted rashly.
If they accidentally injured the patients inside, it would be a very troublesome matter.
Chen Jiajun glanced at Li Shutang and immediately understood what he was thinking.
He smiled and said to Li Shutang: "I will go communicate with Huo Xiansheng and the others about this matter first, and find a way to evacuate the medical staff and patients inside first."
"However, doing this will definitely alert the enemy, so you Police side must also be prepared at all times."
Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Li Shutang breathed a sigh of relief.
Subsequently, Chen Jiajun dialed Huo Yingdong's phone and explained this matter to him.
Huo Yingdong was extremely angry about this matter; he had not expected that some bastard would actually dare to use a hospital he used for charity as a Warehouse for arms dealers.
He not only agreed to help Chen Jiajun with the operation but also promised to investigate which mole was colluding with this bastard Zunni Wang.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Jiajun smiled and said to Li Shutang: "Look, it's settled."
Regarding this, Li Shutang could only give a bitter smile.
Don't look at how easily Chen Jiajun persuaded Huo Yingdong; this was built on the premise that both parties had a good personal relationship.
Li Shutang was very clear that these wealthy people in Hong Kong were not easy to deal with at all.
Since the biggest worry was gone, Li Shutang immediately returned to the Police Station to start making arrangements.
The next day, Mingxin Hospital suddenly received a notification.
Today the hospital was going to hold some kind of fire drill.
Although this kind of thing didn't happen often, it hadn't never happened before.
It did not attract the attention of Zunni Wang's men.
Even Zunni Wang's men hiding in the hospital helped evacuate the patients in the hospital.
But very quickly, this mole discovered something was wrong.
Usually, this kind of fire drill was just a formality, but when he discovered that the doctors and nurses in the hospital were sending critically ill patients onto ambulances, he sensed that something was wrong.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he dialed Zunni Wang's phone: "Brother Zunni, things seem a bit wrong here at the hospital."
Zunni Wang had long since received notification from his men hidden in the hospital.
He wasn't an idiot; he certainly wouldn't entrust such an important place as a Warehouse to just one turncoat.
Zunni Wang said calmly: "Don't panic yet, figure out the situation first before saying anything; I have already brought people over."
The mole nodded and hung up the phone; a few minutes later, the fire trucks didn't come, but over a dozen Police vehicles killed their way over.
They directly surrounded Mingxin Hospital completely.
Seeing this scene, the mole was scared silly; he pulled out his phone and wanted to notify Zunni Wang.
But before he could even take out his phone, a mysterious person appeared beside him and knocked him unconscious with a single punch.
"Li Sir, the mole has been found; there are four people in the morgue, and I don't know about the others."
The one who took action was one of Chen Jiajun's men.
"Alright. You can withdraw." Li Shutang nodded and said.
After the Hong Hing people left, Li Shutang did not delay for a moment and directly sent people to launch a frontal assault.
Under the notification of the dean, the hospital staff and patients had been evacuated, and a roll call had been taken.
Then, as for who was left in the hospital now, there was naturally no need to say more.
To deal with these thugs, Li Shutang didn't talk about martial virtue at all; he directly called in the Flying Tigers to coordinate with the Serious Crimes Unit's assault team to launch a frontal assault.
After rushing into the hospital, intense gunfire rang out very quickly.
These desperate criminals still caused some obstacles for the Police.
And at this time, Zunni Wang brought people and killed their way over; seeing the terrifying Police force in front of Mingxin Hospital, he was stunned.
"Who the hell leaked this?" Zunni Wang now had the heart to kill someone.
Inside Mingxin Hospital, there were not only the weapons he had snatched from Guan Shanhai.
Even his own weapons were stored inside.
If the Police were to wipe it all out in one go, the loss caused could only be described as astronomical.
Zunni Wang could only sneak into the hospital from the back door; hearing the gunfire inside had not yet ceased, Zunni Wang immediately ordered his men: "Follow me in, grab as much cargo as you can."
Saying this, he took his men and charged in at the forefront.
After entering the hospital from the back door, they immediately bypassed the Police and went straight to the morgue.
Here, Zunni Wang's subordinates were using the narrow corridor to maneuver against the Police outside.
"Boss, you've arrived."
The subordinate guarding the morgue felt a sudden sense of relief after seeing Zunni Wang arrive.
Zunni Wang nodded, splitting off a portion of his men to maneuver against the Police who had broken in with the guard team, while he himself took the other group of lackeys to salvage the goods.
The reason Zunni Wang used the morgue of Mingxin Hospital as a Warehouse was naturally because the facilities here were sufficiently complete.
Plus, the morgue was a place where people rarely came, so it was the best location to use as a Warehouse.
After hoisting the wooden crates containing the arms out of the cold storage, Zunni Wang led his men to hurry back.
The most important thing for them now was to get their arms onto the vehicle and then leave.
But just as he led his men out of the hospital, Zunni Wang saw a group of people next to his vehicle.
And the one leading them was none other than Guan Shanhai, who had escaped disaster.
Guan Shanhai flashed a smile at Zunni Wang, and then his subordinates lit a fire, setting Zunni Wang's small van parked on the side of the road ablaze.
The soaring flames immediately attracted the attention of the Police not far away, who immediately brought men running over.
Zunni Wang was about to be furious to death at this moment: "Guan Shanhai, I will absolutely kill you."
Guan Shanhai sneered: "Traitor, talk about that after you manage to escape."
After saying this, he climbed directly into his own vehicle and drove away.
"Damn it, let's go, forget the goods. Notify the brothers inside to withdraw." Zunni Wang's reaction was quite decisive.
He knew that if they dawdled any longer, they would all inevitably be left behind here.
After the situation was under control, Li Shutang then led the Reporters and others into the hospital.
And in front of the Reporters, he displayed the place where the arms were hidden for everyone to see.
It had to be said that Zunni Wang's own goods plus the goods snatched from Guan Shanhai were already astonishing enough.
Looking at these rows of neatly stacked arms, the Reporter was also taken aback.
Li Shutang stood in front of the camera at this time and said sternly: "Hong Kong is a safe city. We, the Police, absolutely do not allow anyone to use this place as a battlefield or a paradise for illegal trade. This incident is just the beginning. We will increase our efforts to crack down on these criminal activities and return a stable living environment to the citizens of Hong Kong."
Li Shutang already had an upright appearance, and these seized arms added two more points of credibility to him.
The Reporters present could not help but applaud.
At this time, inside the Chairman's office of Guojun Group.
Chen Jiajun was watching the television broadcast.
Seeing Li Shutang's performance, Chen Jiajun could not help but applaud: "This guy will definitely be promoted in this recent period."
For Li Shutang to climb from the bottom of the Police to this position was already quite difficult.
For such a capable figure, Chen Jiajun felt his investment was not a loss.
Even if he didn't let Li Shutang climb to the position of Commissioner, it would still be much more convenient to get things done sometimes.
Just like this incident, if Chen Jiajun had operated it himself, although he could have wiped out Zunni Wang's group.
It would also have attracted the attention of the Ether Society, thereby causing these mysterious guys to go underwater again.
By then, it would be troublesome to try and grab their tails.
And on the other side, inside a certain high-end club.
Du Qi was flirting with two models when he suddenly received a phone call.
His expression changed drastically, he immediately pushed away the models on him, and then turned on the television.
On the television, it was just broadcasting the news of Li Shutang cracking the Mingxin Hospital arms case, which made his expression quite ugly.
He had not expected that this guy Zunni Wang would be such a failure, actually having his own Warehouse exposed by the Police.
Now it was a mess; the plans previously arranged by the Ether Society were all disrupted.
And he, the person in charge of this plan, would definitely be in trouble.
"Damn it, Zunni Wang, that loser." Du Qi cursed in a low voice.
Immediately after, the phone rang, and Du Qi's expression changed instantly; he immediately walked out of the room to answer the call.
"What exactly happened? I need you to give me an explanation in person."
From the other end of the phone came the serious voice of a young man.
The young man speaking was named Cole, one of the four people in charge of the Ether Society here in Asia.
Now that the situation was more complex, Cole had to come to Hong Kong in person to handle the affairs here.
But first and foremost, he had to hold that bastard Du Qi accountable.
