After the divorce, I started to transfer
Chapter 1318 Seeing Through and Explaining
Although Dong Shanming was angry, he was also really afraid that he would be implicated in this incident.
After all, this matter involved that powerful foreign woman and diplomacy, so he was quite wary. Because anyone who got involved in this kind of thing would be in trouble, even his father.
Xu Jiaze has let his father down this time, and Dong Shanming certainly doesn't want to follow suit.
Of course, he didn't want Xu Jiaze to give him away in the end, thus affecting his father.
At the beginning, he was confident that Xu Jiaze would not be stupid enough to give him up, because to do so would be tantamount to completely offending him.
The most important thing is that giving him away would not do Xu Jiaze much good, and it would not reduce his guilt much. Moreover, without evidence, Dong Shanming could deny it and turn the tables and say Xu Jiaze framed him.
Dong Shanming was confident that nothing would happen to him because of his status. Xu Jiaze should also understand this.
But Dong Shanming couldn't take the risk.
It is also possible that Xu Jiaze gave him up in order to protect himself or under the threat of Chen Feng.
Even if we can't do anything to him in the end, it's enough to make him feel sick for a while.
After Dong Shanming thought about it for a while, he immediately called Huo Xinhong.
Before, Xu Jiaze suspected that Huo Xinhong was a traitor, and Dong Shanming also believed it to some extent.
Now he could take this opportunity to test it out.
The phone was quickly connected, and Dong Shanming said straight to the point: "Xinhong, Jiaze has been arrested."
"What?!" Huo Xinhong couldn't help but exclaimed.
After he returned home last night, he did not toss and turn. He also went to spend the night with a female anchor. In the morning, he had a loving breakfast made by the female anchor herself. Only then did he come to his company to work in high spirits.
He had just finished reading a few documents in the office when he received a call from Dong Shanming and heard the news that made his scalp tingle.
Dong Shanming continued calmly, "Jia Ze called me for help just now. He was hiding in the room, and the police were knocking on the door and shouting. He should have been taken away by the police by now."
"This is too fast. How could it be so fast? Hasn't that fraudster Yang Chuanfang already given him away? Didn't Jiaze say that he had promised him one million yuan and threatened him with his three sons? This carrot and stick approach, is it true that it is completely useless? He didn't even last a day."
Huo Xinhong was quite puzzled. He didn't understand why Yang Chuanfang confessed so quickly. Was Yang Chuanfang tortured? This shouldn't be the case, right?
Dong Shanming was also very confused as to how Yang Chuanfang could have given Xu Jiaze away so quickly.
But there is no need to dwell on this issue now, after all, the person has already been arrested.
"Anyway, Jiaze has been arrested, and his father has also been arrested for bribery in the company. Jiaze is a little upset now, and he is afraid that Chen Feng will further retaliate against him. So, he threatened us, saying that if we can't rescue him within three days, he will drag us into the water one by one, and the first one will be you."
When Dong Shanming said this, Huo Xinhong felt very uncomfortable and shouted, "How could he do this? Didn't we already tell him at the beginning? Did he forget? What's the benefit of him betraying us? If he takes it, we will definitely try our best to compensate him when he comes out."
"I told him, but he was a little scared. He was afraid that if he stayed in there for too long, Chen Feng would harm him, and he was worried about his life. So, he forced us to find a way to get him out. If three days pass, he will give you up first. Tell me, what should we do next?"
Huo Xinhong was completely numb. Although he had a bad feeling as soon as he heard that Xu Jiaze was arrested, he still found it hard to accept what Dong Shanming said.
"Is Xu Jiaze a brainless guy? No matter how powerful Chen Feng is, he wouldn't kill him directly. To be honest, it was just a minor incident, not a deep hatred. How could he be scared like this?"
Dong Shanming didn't quite agree with what Huo Xinhong said. Because he had personally experienced Chen Feng's cruel methods and was almost wrongly accused of selling laundry detergent. If he had been wrongly accused, wouldn't he have died?
Therefore, after what happened, he didn't have the courage to continue fighting with Chen Feng and Tao Yaoyang, and just gave in. After all, no matter how powerful you are, you only have one life, so you don't dare to continue to confront someone who wants to kill you.
Peace is the most important thing and turning enemies into friends is obviously the best way.
If it weren't for the rumors that later spread so badly about him, and if it weren't for the misunderstanding that Chen Feng didn't take him seriously, didn't accept his WeChat friend additions, and didn't answer his calls, he would definitely not have the idea of scheming and taking revenge on Chen Feng.
In addition, as time went on, his courage gradually returned.
However, if he really wanted to carry out his revenge and conspiracy plan, he had made sufficient preparations, which was to find suitable lackeys and people to take the blame, which could be considered as an insurance policy for himself.
So he chose Xu Jiaze.
I thought Xu Jiaze, a lackey who came up to me on his own initiative, would be very obedient and would not complain even if I asked him to take the blame.
But judging from the current results, he obviously misjudged the person.
Xu Jiaze did not do his job well and not only messed up the good plan, but now he is threatening him. Now he is in a dilemma and he is not sure how to deal with the matter for a while.
"Anyway, he's been scared. So, think about what to do next? You only have three days at most, otherwise he'll be the first to give you up."
Dong Shanming couldn't think of a good solution for a moment, so of course he had to discuss it with Huo Xinhong, the first guy who might be implicated.
In his impression, Huo Xinhong was a smart man, and he also had a good family background, otherwise it would have been impossible for him, a young master, to maintain a friendship with him. After returning to Xiuzhou, he often played with him.
"Have you asked him to remain silent and refuse to plead guilty? As long as he refuses to plead guilty, Yang Chuanfang probably won't have any evidence to prove that he hired a murderer. We have room to maneuver. Let's work together to find some connections, and maybe we can get him out."
Huo Xinhong could only say this. Dong Shanming, however, said pessimistically: "The police came to arrest him directly, which means they must have sufficient evidence, otherwise they would only call to summon him. Jiaze must have thought of this, so he asked us to find a way to get him out. In his opinion, he can only hold out for three days at most, and he may not be able to hold out after three days. It would not be surprising if he gave you up as his accomplice at that time."
"How did I become an accomplice? Shan Ming, you know that I only agreed to help him give him some information for your sake. When it came to the actual operation, I didn't participate at all."
Huo Xinhong was very angry. It was clearly Dong Shanming's indirect coercion that forced him to help. If it weren't for Dong Shanming, would he have gotten involved in this matter that did not benefit him at all?
"Don't forget. This whole fraud scheme was proposed by you. How can you not be considered an accomplice? And you also recommended Yang Chuanfang. Even if you are not the principal offender, you are an accomplice and cannot escape."
Dong Shanming's words made Huo Xinhong even more angry. Plan A proposed by Xu Jiaze was obviously too tragic. He was afraid of being implicated, so he proposed Plan B, which was the plan of hitting porcelain this time. Can it be said that he participated? Well, it seems that he participated, but he had no choice at the time. It can be said that he was forced to join.
It would be fine if outsiders didn't know the inside story, but who among them didn't know the inside story? Especially Dong Shanming, who was lying on the side pretending to be drunk and asleep, but in fact everyone knew that he was listening at the scene.
In that situation, Huo Xinhong had no choice but to help, otherwise not only would he lose his friendship with Dong Shanming, but he would also be punished by Dong Shanming afterwards.
"Shan Ming, now that things have come to this, you must get him out as soon as possible. You are the only one who has the ability to do this. Otherwise, not only will I be in trouble, but everyone else will be in trouble as well."
Although Huo Xinhong spoke calmly, Dong Shanming was no fool and immediately heard the implicit threat in his words.
Dong Shanming narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I am capable of getting him out. But the problem now is that there is basically solid evidence that he has been arrested. And Chen Feng is definitely watching. If I intervene, it would be like confessing myself. So, it is better for you to find someone to intervene and get him out as soon as possible."
Huo Xinhong said dissatisfiedly: "What connections do I have to get him out directly? You said Chen Feng is paying attention to him. Even if I have connections, I may not be able to get him out."
Dong Shanming was also dissatisfied when he heard that he was still angry, and said: "Then what do you think we should do? Just wait for him to give you up in three days?"
Huo Xinhong was so angry that he wanted to smash his phone, cursing in his heart: Damn it, weren't I forced by you in the first place?
"My dear brother Ming, at this point, Chen Feng must have known that you were the one behind all this. Don't you want to mess with him? Don't you want everyone to know that you are not afraid of him at all? Then you should show your strength and fight him openly.
The first thing is to use your connections to get Xu Jiaze out. He is your younger brother, and he worked hard for you. Now that he has been arrested, it is your responsibility as the elder brother to get him out. You cannot shirk this responsibility, and you cannot back down again. If you back down this time, you will have to live under Chen Feng's shadow for the rest of your life."
Huo Xinhong's words gave Dong Shanming a toothache.
If he really had the courage to fight Chen Feng openly, he would not have pushed Xu Jiaze to cause trouble, and he would not have made the phone call to discuss it with Huo Xinhong.
In the final analysis, he was a little scared again. In addition, he realized that he had misunderstood Chen Feng after Xu Jiaze reminded him.
Now that the misunderstanding between him and Chen Feng has been resolved, he has lost the confidence to retaliate and plot against Chen Feng.
"Xinhong, since we've come to this point, let me say something else. Jiaze has always suspected that there is a traitor among us, and he seriously suspects that you are..."
"Bullshit. What did I betray you all for? Nothing."
Dong Shanming was interrupted by Huo Xinhong before he finished speaking. He was a little nervous and guilty inside, after all, he was indeed a traitor and betrayed them.
He really didn't expect that this bastard Xu Jiaze had such an accurate feeling.
Dong Shanming knew Huo Xinhong a little bit. When he saw Huo Xinhong's intense reaction, he immediately became more suspicious. He thought that this guy might really be a traitor.
Thinking of this, Dong Shanming started to feel a little annoyed. He said in a cold voice with a sullen face, "Xinhong, it seems that I really underestimated you. You were giving us advice here, but you were secretly telling us off there."
"Shan Ming, what are you talking about? How could I possibly tell on someone? I didn't."
Huo Xinhong strongly denied it.
"If you are not a traitor, then you should do as I say. First, use your connections to find a way to get Jiaze out as soon as possible. Secondly, ask someone to use their connections to make peace with Chen Feng. As long as you can convince him to let you and Xu Jiaze go, things will be easy."
It turned out that Dong Shanming was waiting here, with the intention of letting Huo Xinhong take the blame.
Huo Xinhong of course understood his intentions at once, and was a little furious: "Why? Why should I do all this? It's fine if you find a way to get Xu Jiaze out, but you also want me to make peace with Chen Feng. Am I qualified? Shan Ming, stop deceiving yourself. We are not blind, let alone stupid. This matter was secretly planned and instigated by you from the beginning. If you really want to make peace with Chen Feng, you should do it yourself, so that you are sincere and qualified. What's the point of me making peace with him?"
Huo Xinhong directly tore off Dong Shanming's "Emperor's New Clothes", which made Dong Shanming look very unhappy.
He saw through it but didn't say it out loud. But now Huo Xinhong, his old classmate, has said it out loud, which shows that he obviously doesn't take him seriously.
"Huo Xinhong, you traitor! I can see that it was you who tipped off Chen Feng in advance, which caused our plan to fail. You are so kind, you betrayed us completely. Damn it, no wonder you are so confident, it turns out that you have already thought of a way out. You think Chen Feng will not do anything to you, right? Very good, he won't do anything to you, then I will do what I want to you in the future."
"Shan Ming, Brother Ming, Brother, please don't do anything rash. I'm really not a traitor. Chen Feng and I don't even know each other, how could I possibly tip him off?" Huo Xinhong said in a very aggrieved manner.
Dong Shanming said coldly: "Huo Xinhong, you are too suspicious. Either you do as I say, or you wait for me to deal with you next. You should know that traitors will not have a good end."
Huo Xinhong was really a little afraid of this Young Master Dong. After all, his family was mainly a real estate company, and most of the land and industries were in this province. It would be very easy for Young Master Dong to mess with his family.
Huo Xinhong gritted his teeth in his heart, but he had to compromise: "Okay, I'll do it. I'll do as you say."
"Very good. After all, your Huo family is the local boss in Xiuzhou. I believe your family has strong connections. It shouldn't be difficult to rescue Xu Jiaze. I am optimistic about you. Of course, you can also contact Chen Feng to make peace first. I don't care what method you use, as long as you let Chen Feng let you and Xu Jiaze go and put an end to this matter. Don't worry, if you help me settle this matter, I won't let you suffer. Didn't you say last time that there is a piece of land in Jiangbin that your family really wants? I can help you then."
