Chapter 61

Yuan Yang Water is a treasure.

However, Su Wen did not dare to completely drain his vitality when recycling the Yuan Yang Water. After recovering five drops, he immediately stopped, which was enough for him to protect himself. It's worth noting that, it was even a bit more.

A place with bright lights and red wine.

Liu Changdong was sipping tea, with a few young women sitting opposite him.

"Director Liu, you are really vigorous for your age!" A woman dressed provocatively lay directly in Liu Changdong's arms, her hand continuously rubbing against his crotch.

"Of course, I'll show you my prowess in a while." Liu Changdong grabbed the woman's chest with one hand. The woman winced in pain but still smiled, clearly a professional escort.

Liu Changdong, nearly sixty years old, looked somewhat thin, with a yellowish complexion and half his hair turned white. He was now close to retirement and was trying to enjoy life while he could, but he did not dare to commit major illegal acts. So, he sometimes helped others with small favors to get some benefits for himself.

This time was no exception.

When Jia Yi spoke, Liu Changdong agreed without hesitation. He knew that Jia Yi was not an ordinary person, and helping him would definitely bring many benefits. Sure enough, as soon as the matter was settled, Jia Yi arranged for him to be here, with not only beautiful women but also a hundred thousand yuan.

Suddenly, his phone rang. Liu Changdong saw the caller was Tang Long, which made him quite surprised.

"Director Tang, didn't you go to the provincial meeting?"

Hearing Liu Changdong's voice, Tang Long roared, "Liu Changdong, you are so old, and I have turned a blind eye to what you do, but this time you have really gone too far. Not only did you arrest my nephew, but you even alarmed the governor. You are really capable, aren't you?"

Liu Changdong shivered and stammered, "Director Tang, are you mistaken? When did I arrest your nephew?"

Tang Long, hearing Liu Changdong still unaware, became even angrier. How could such a person have lived so long? He decided not to waste words and said directly, "Liu Changdong, did you arrest the owner of Jubaizhai today? Let me tell you, that person is the son of my comrade-in-arms and the master and boss of Governor Nie's grandson. If Governor Nie hadn't told me about this, I would have been in the dark. I must say, you are not only old but also getting more foolish. Did you not investigate the person's background before arresting him?"

Liu Changdong was drenched in sweat, realizing he had really caused trouble.

Today, he only arrested one person, Su Wen.

But he had no idea that Su Wen was not only Tang Long's nephew but also related to Governor Nie. Now that even Governor Nie had spoken, his retirement was likely out of the question. If things went badly, he might end up in prison.

"Director Tang, you must save me!" Liu Changdong, understanding the situation, was terrified. He knew that only Tang Long could help him get a better outcome. Asking Governor Nie for help was out of the question, and it was clear that Tang Long was handling the matter.

"Save you?" Tang Long sneered, "You arrested my nephew for no reason. How can I save you now? It's already a lot that I won't take advantage of your situation. Do you think I am a great benefactor?"

Liu Changdong was even more terrified and said in a tearful voice, "Director Tang, I really didn't know about Su Wen. Jia Yi from Shengshi Auction House asked me for a favor. I didn't think much about it at the time, just planning to teach Su Wen a lesson and then let him go... You know my situation in Jiangning over the years. I only held the title of deputy director and didn't manage much. Everything was under your control. When the director was transferred, I even recommended you."

Tang Long pondered for a moment. Liu Changdong had indeed given him enough face in Jiangning. In many departments, there were often conflicts between the deputy and the director, but Liu Changdong had been very cooperative in the Jiangning Public Security Bureau, never causing him any trouble, which made his work much easier.

"Director Tang, let this slide this time. I know you have a great background, and Governor Nie won't make a fuss over this small matter. Just let it go, and I can escape this disaster." Liu Changdong was almost in tears, playing the emotional card repeatedly.

Tang Long was silent.

For Tang Long, it would be too easy to send Liu Changdong to prison. Although Liu Changdong had not committed any fatal mistakes over the years, he had made many small ones, including corruption and bribery, and his lifestyle was also questionable. With just a bit of evidence, Liu Changdong would be finished.

"Director Tang, I'm almost sixty, and I don't know how many good days I have left," Liu Changdong continued, "In the years I've been in Jiangning, although I haven't done much for the city, I have dedicated my life to it. Can you bear to see an old man like me spend the rest of his life in prison?"

Tang Long, hearing this, finally felt a bit of sympathy, "Go and release Su Wen. As long as he forgives you, this matter will be over."

Liu Changdong's face lit up with joy, "I'll go and release Su Wen and apologize to him in person. Rest assured, I'll make sure he is satisfied."

Jiangning Public Security Bureau.

Liu Changdong hurriedly drove to the bureau and rushed to where Su Wen was being held.

On the way, he had called several times, but the two police officers who arrested Su Wen did not answer. Liu Changdong knew that although these two officers were his people, they might have to take the fall for him this time.

"I hope they haven't already hurt Su Wen, or it will be over." Liu Changdong was worried, and his pace quickened.

However, when Liu Changdong arrived, he was completely stunned.

Eight people were lying in the corner, all of them terrified, clearly having been beaten up. The two police officers who were with him were also among them.

"Director, please... please save us!"

"Director, demon, this person is a demon, we..."

Six other prisoners also showed pleading looks, truly terrified by Su Wen. During this time, Su Wen, with nothing to do, had been practicing martial arts on them, dislocating and resetting their joints repeatedly, which was terrifying!

Su Wen coldly snorted, and all eight people immediately shut up.

Liu Changdong was shocked, realizing how powerful Su Wen was. However, now was not the time to think about that. Liu Changdong looked at Su Wen and forced a smile, "Brother Su Wen, I am truly sorry. This was a mistake on my part, and I apologize for the trouble I caused you. Please..."

Before Liu Changdong could finish, Su Wen sneered, "You think it's that easy to let me go?"

"Brother Su Wen, I truly apologize, old man..."

"I was arrested for no reason and am very angry."

"I can compensate, anything can be discussed."

"Compensate?" Su Wen laughed, "Since you arrested me, about three hours have passed. Do you know how much money I could have made in three hours?"

"Ten thousand, how about that?"

"Ridiculous. If I wanted to, I could earn several ten thousand in a minute. You think you can buy me off with money? You are greatly mistaken. I am not interested in money."

Liu Changdong felt defeated and forced a smile, "Brother Su Wen, just tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse."

Su Wen looked at Liu Changdong and said casually, "It's simple. Who ordered you to arrest me? Go and arrest them now. For every hour I spent here, they should spend double. Whatever treatment I received, they should receive the same."

Liu Changdong was stunned. This was revenge!

"What, you don't agree?" Su Wen looked at Liu Changdong, "It seems you still think I am easy to bully. Let's be clear, I know who ordered you. Was it Jia Yi from Shengshi Auction House? Now that I am arrested, he is acting as if nothing happened. Do you think that's fair?"

Liu Changdong looked bitter. He dared not arrest Jia Yi!

"Think about it. If you don't arrest Jia Yi, I won't leave here." Su Wen added in his mind, even if you arrest Jia Yi, I won't leave until a day has passed.

Su Wen was calm, but Liu Changdong was restless.

He went outside and immediately called Tang Long, explaining the situation.

After listening, Tang Long smiled, "Shengshi Auction House is indeed special, but I can guarantee that no one will stand up for Jia Yi if you arrest him."

Liu Changdong was stunned, not understanding.

Tang Long smiled mysteriously, "Shengshi Auction House doesn't lack a Jia Yi. This time, they were in the wrong first. Unless they want to give up business in Jiangning, they will have to admit their mistake. Jiangning is ultimately our Jiangning, and Shengshi Auction House is just a well-connected auction house."

Hearing Tang Long's words, Liu Changdong said nothing and personally led people to arrest Jia Yi.

When Jia Yi was arrested, he looked incredulous, feeling that he had gotten into trouble.

However, to Liu Changdong's frustration, even after Jia Yi was arrested, Su Wen still refused to leave immediately, making the situation awkward.

...

When Jia Yi was arrested, the news quickly reached the capital.

In the capital.

An old man angrily scolded, "Useless fellow, always causing trouble for me."

The few people around the old man were silent.

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Feixue isn't busy these days. Let her go to Jiangning to handle this matter and temporarily take over the Shengshi Auction House in Jiangning."

The old man's decision was an order.

Su Wen did not know that a person he was familiar with was about to arrive in Jiangning.
