Chapter 715: Yang Tian Targeted

Yang Qing himself actually doesn't know how long the authorities will tolerate him.

But he didn't dare leave Daxia.

Now, no one knows how many people worldwide are watching him.

Moreover, no one knows how many people want to control him.

The Yang Family is like a sharp blade that has plunged into the world Benefit.

They still have no way.

The Yang Family has hidden too deeply; even they cannot investigate which are the Yang Family's buried covert operatives.

On the surface, the only thing is that Xuanwu Investment Bank holds shares in some companies, yet none exceed 5%.

If Yang Qing doesn't go out, someone wants to force him out.

One day, Yang Tian returned, his demeanor very indignant.

"Dad, my museum has been sealed."

Yang Qing first was surprised, then seemed to understand something.

As the saying goes, what you worry about comes to pass; this is the worry coming true.

He instructed Yang Tian.

"Gather our legal team; I fear we may have a tough battle ahead."

"Have the legal team cooperate with you to preserve all the items in the museum."

"Always be ready to prepare for litigation."

"Whether it's damage, destruction, or substitution, seize any flaw and attack relentlessly, making sure they at least lose their skin."

"If someone wants to mess with our Yang Family, then nobody expects to have an easy time."

"We must not let them taste success, otherwise trouble will never cease."

"Also, let everyone take responsibility for their own affairs and prepare for a prolonged struggle."

Yang Tian was initially a bit confused, but then realized that the Yang Family was being targeted.

The Yang Family acted quickly, yet a large number of cultural relics were still transferred.

The other party, under the pretense of investigation, detained these cultural relics.

Yang Tian was furious and also felt guilty, because some of the items were scavenged from street stalls, so there were no transaction proofs.

Furthermore, some items might be funerary objects; if they hold onto them, they can not only sue him but also keep detaining these cultural relics on that pretext.

Some people have already become shameless.

Yang Tian did not comply with their wishes; even when detained, he demanded the inventory be handed over and the transfer completed, to prove that the items were taken by them.

Furthermore, he registered all personnel involved.

He had them sign one by one.

These are all evidence; if anything happens to the items, these people will bear responsibility.

As long as Yang Tian persists, these people can forget about having any future.

"If you don't sign, we'll sue you for illegal intrusion; even if we can't bring you down, we'll annoy you to death—who let you not sign and give them an opportunity?"

Even for their own sake, they must also put pressure on the behind-the-scenes individuals.

What remains is to find people in the antique circle to help prove that many of the items were bought by them during their stall days.

Moreover, many items were purchased at the price of handicrafts.

This can exempt them from the crime of purchasing stolen goods.

"I set out some handicrafts—there's nothing wrong with that, right? As for how handicrafts turned into genuine items, there's no way to rely on luck."

If it were an ordinary person, they would truly be crushed by these people.

But the Yang Family's legal team handles matters flawlessly.

After completing evidence collection, they began demanding the return of items without objection.

Faced with the Yang Family's aggressive pressure, many items had to be returned.

But these people originally harbored ill intentions.

Thus, everyone naturally was eager to split the loot, and the returned antiquities showed many substitutions.

The legal team seized the opportunity, giving people almost no time to react before suing them.

Subsequently, they extensively reported the case, yet the headlines turned out to be the least reported.

For a time, the entire incident caused a nationwide uproar.

Because the amount was huge, antiquities worth over a billion were lost, and this loss occurred through the authorities.

Guardian theft, blatant robbery.

The departments involved in the action were instantly dumbfounded; the leaders and the top officials of the superior level were dragged out and whipped posthumously.

Yang Qing kept watching; after the incident, even more people came to find him.

Especially Director Wang, who had been retired for many years, came over to plead.

He is also not young, in his seventies or eighties, and was helped into Yang Qing's siheyuan.

Seeing the other party arrive, Yang Qing and Chen Hong courteously welcomed them inside.

"Aunt Wang, how did you come over?"

Director Wang is no longer the former Director Wang; now she is also a family.

Her sons and grandsons mostly work within the government as well.

This is that big dye vat, with tangled roots and knots, unknown how many are implicated.

Although Yang Qing had made some preparations, upon Director Wang speaking he still felt a surge of sorrow.

After Director Wang exchanged a few pleasantries, she put on airs and ordered Yang Qing to handle matters.

"Yang Qing, as long as the matter is almost settled, that's fine."

"Now that it's turned into this, how much trouble has it caused the authorities?"

"People do change; once Benefit is involved, people become hideously detestable."

"The person who once held lofty ideals has now been tainted by power and money, leaving Yang Qing in disbelief."

"Before Yang Qing could speak, Chen Hong's complexion turned sour."

"Aunt Wang, this time it's not that we want to trouble the authorities; rather, someone is misusing public assets for private ends, trying to cause us trouble."

"If the Yang Family didn't have any means, a common person would…"

"Family ruin and death would both be possible."

"Someone wants to bring my son to his death; the villain hasn't been punished yet, and now they tell us to back off."

"Aunt Wang, if this had been earlier, these people should have been dragged out and executed."

"Now you not only make us turn a blind eye, but also force us to compromise."

"It seems the dragon slayer has become an evil dragon."

"Director Wang didn't expect Chen Hong to be so disrespectful; they had quite a bond."

"Now she gives no face at all."

"Chen Hong, it's just over a billion, right? That money is a drop in the bucket for the Yang Family, and you already donate a lot each year."

"Just consider it donated."

"Yang Qing felt a wave of nausea, and his smile faded."

"It's not that he looks down on women; truly upright women are indeed few."

"When Yang Qing first returned, he also investigated Aunt Wang; the findings made him keep his distance from her."

"He knew people change, but didn't expect such a thorough transformation."

"Ten years later, Director Wang's power in her hands had expanded enormously."

"So many people appealed to her; they gradually lost themselves in desire, and she used this to connect a massive network of contacts."

"One could say these people have grown into a malignant tumor."

"She is probably aware of this scheme against the Yang Family as well."

"Just like back then, she watched Yang Qing being bullied by a pack of courtyard vicious dogs."

"This time she still watches coldly from the sidelines."

"Moreover, after the matter slipped out of their control, she came over to urge him to be magnanimous."

"Originally Yang Qing, out of the family's ancestral ties, was unwilling to get overly entangled."

"Now Yang Qing feels he is still too kind."

"Your family has plenty of money, so what's the problem with us taking a bite?"

"Hahaha… truly damn funny."

"Some people have become so arrogant that they no longer see themselves as humans, but as the Shepherd People."

"It reminded Yang Qing of the Arctic, that catfish…"

"He did a lot, but after the authorities could inherit, many matters still proceed in their predetermined direction."
