The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 783 You should be glad you didn't do anything wrong in the country

Tang Haorui frowned.

To be honest, Qin Chuan's arrival was indeed somewhat unexpected. Tang Haorui had already conducted as much investigation as possible into Qin Chuan when he first arrived at the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau, and this investigation had truly shocked him.

On the one hand, Qin Chuan is really too young. He is only 26 years old now and has only been out of college for two or three years. He has already risen from a police officer in a grassroots police station, and even a police officer in a township police station, to the position of director of a municipal public security bureau.

He went from being a trainee police officer to deputy section chief, section chief, and even deputy division chief, and has now reached the powerful position of division chief in less than three years.

In addition, Tang Haorui has been paying close attention to Qin Chuan's movements ever since Qin Chuan arrived at the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau.

Although Tang Haorui had been abroad for many years, he never intended to hand over the Sihai Group business to anyone else. The reason he returned from abroad, or rather, the reason he began to hone his skills abroad, was precisely to take over the Sihai Group business.

So, since his return, although he took over the hotel business and made considerable profits, the hotel business is not actually the core business of the Sihai Group. Compared to other heavy assets, hotels are only the third largest business segment of the Sihai Group, along with energy and real estate development.

However, through his connections abroad and the hiring of a high-end management team, Tang Haorui increased the profits of Sihai Group's hotel business by more than 50% in just two or three years. This earned him praise from Tang Zhentian.

Just before this Spring Festival, Tang Zhentian even made it clear that he intended to have Tang Haorui take over the Sihai Group.

As a result, Tang Haorui naturally paid more attention to Nanchuan City.

After Qin Chuan arrived, he did some things that Tang Haorui thought were basically impossible for an outsider to accomplish.

Tang Haorui knew about the Li family's stronghold when he was a child. Back then, the Li family's smuggling business had already spread throughout Nanchuan City, and over the years, their influence had become deeply entrenched.

Unexpectedly, Qin Chuan completely uprooted the underground smuggling network in Nanchuan City in less than two months. It can be said that he accomplished what many people wanted to do but could not.

If the complete eradication of capitalist forces was a provocation against the old guard in Nanchuan City, then what Qin Chuan did next was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. He managed to take down all three major drug lords in Nanchuan City in less than a month, destroying the entire drug trafficking network and making it virtually impossible to buy a single drug in Nanchuan City now.

miracle!

Even Tang Haorui felt that this could only be described as a miracle.

In addition, the information Tang Haorui gathered about Qin Chuan's past deeds made him extremely wary of Qin Chuan.

This kind of person is absolutely not to be trifled with.

In China, the last thing you can do to succeed in business is to mess with people in power. Qin Chuan rose from a police officer in a rural town police station to where he is today in just three years. Nobody would believe he has no powerful backers.

Tang Haorui understood perfectly what Qin Chuan meant when he spoke.

Qin Chuan's words don't count in these cases; the key is the evidence. And the so-called evidence is now irrefutable: Tang Haorui instructed Li Haichuan to kill Zhao Lingyu's family.

However, Tang Haorui knew very well that he had not done such a thing, and he also knew very well that someone had framed him. As for who framed him, Tang Haorui knew perfectly well that no one else besides his good older brother would do such a thing, nor would anyone have the ability to do so.

The other party handled this matter flawlessly. Now, no matter what Tang Haorui says, based on the evidence, he is the murderer's supporter. According to domestic law, if someone directly commits murder and is instructed to do so, the person who directly commits the murder may not face a severe punishment, and he will almost certainly receive a suspended death sentence.

However, this doesn't mean there's no chance of things turning around. Qin Chuan coming to see him is his biggest opportunity.

Tang Haorui had initially hoped that the Sihai Group could exert some pressure on the police to conduct a more in-depth investigation, but now it seems there's virtually no hope. If Qin Chuan is convinced that the evidence is what it is, then Tang Haorui being sent to jail is a foregone conclusion.

However, since the other party came to see him, it meant there was still a chance. But Qin Chuan must have other purposes, which Tang Haorui was not aware of.

"Director Qin, let's not beat around the bush. The fact that you've taken time out of your busy schedule to see me, or rather, to interrogate me, means there's still a chance for this case to turn around. I know very well whether or not I supported Li Haichuan in murdering Zhao Lingyu's family. Although the evidence currently points to me as the mastermind, I think as the director of the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau, you wouldn't want to be used as a pawn. Since you're here, you can draw the line. As long as it's within my power, I, Tang Haorui, will absolutely follow your lead."

Tang Haorui was clever; he knew Qin Chuan had come to see him for a reason, but he didn't know what it was. However, whatever it was, he'd get out first. As long as he could get rid of the murderer label, the specifics didn't matter. Whether it was money or someone wanting to bring him under their control, for Tang Haorui, as long as he could control the Sihai Group, everything else was trivial.

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "You're very smart."

"Your father, Tang Zhentian, has four sons, and you are the best student among them. After graduating from high school, you went abroad. Over the years, you became a key member of a certain mafia organization and did a lot of bad things. But a few years ago, when you had the opportunity, you resolutely chose to return to China. What you wanted to do was to take over the Sihai Group business."

Ok?

Tang Haorui was somewhat shocked. Even his father, Tang Zhentian, only knew a little about his affairs abroad. He only knew that Tang Haorui had some influence overseas, but he didn't know that Tang Haorui had been involved in the Mafia, let alone that Tang Haorui had actually risen to one of the top three positions in the Mafia.

Qin Chuan actually knew!

How did this person obtain this information?

"Director Qin, your information is indeed well-informed, but I haven't done anything illegal in the country. Besides, I am a part of the Sihai Group. It's better for me to inherit the Sihai Group than for it to be in my elder brother's hands."

Qin Chuan nodded: "You should be glad you didn't do anything wrong in China, otherwise I wouldn't have come to see you."
