"Isn't it good that Zhang Wei, who has done so much evil, is dead? What's there to hesitate about?"
Chen Feng comforted Sun Feng, saying.
"Chen Feng, since you say so, I won't hide anything. My plan is to offer a million dollars to a boss who was previously ruined by Zhang Wei, and have him directly kill Zhang Wei. After killing Zhang Wei, this ruined boss will not only get a million dollars to live the rest of his life, but can also escape abroad on a private jet."
Sun Feng explained.
"The method is feasible, but this boss must have a deep enough hatred for Zhang Wei, otherwise, this boss might not dare to kill Zhang Wei."
Chen Feng asked Sun Feng with a solemn expression.
"Chen Feng, don't worry. Assassinating Zhang Wei is no small matter. We must act with absolute certainty. This boss's company was taken over by Zhang Wei, not only that, but his wife was also taken by Zhang Wei, and his parents were angered to death. Tell me, is the hatred between this boss and Zhang Wei deep enough?"
Sun Feng retorted.
"Hearing you say that, I am relieved. How about this, I'll talk to Cheng Liren and ask him to deliberately take Zhang Wei to inspect the underground facilities. This way, the assassination will be even more foolproof."
Chen Feng replied.
"It's a deal."
Sun Feng said excitedly.
This plan had actually been brewing for a long time.
However, they had never dared to implement it.
The main reason was the fear that Cheng Liren would protect Zhang Wei. Once Zhang Wei was killed, if Cheng Liren mobilized all his resources to find the mastermind, he would be doomed.
But now, Cheng Liren was involved in this matter, and the matter of finding the mastermind afterward would definitely be dropped.
This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Cheng Liren had clearly stated that if Zhang Wei died, then he would be the successor.
In the arena of power, the most important and dangerous matters must have sufficient material incentives. Otherwise, who would be foolish enough to do great and dangerous things?
Chen Feng did not hesitate and went directly to Cheng Liren.
"Chen Feng, you say, is it reliable to use assassination?"
Cheng Liren probed.
"Reliable, it's fast, ruthless, and accurate."
"Good, I trust you. Since you think it's reliable, I'll go with Zhang Wei to inspect the underground facilities tomorrow."
Cheng Liren said excitedly.
"By the way, Elder Cheng, remember one important thing tomorrow, don't forget to do it."
Chen Feng said with a serious expression.
"What? An important thing? What other important thing needs to be done?"
Cheng Liren was stunned.
"You need to arrange for a policeman, or someone else, to coincidentally appear at the crime scene and then kill the perpetrator."
Chen Feng said word by word.
"What? You want to kill that ruined boss? Isn't that ruined boss helping us? Killing him doesn't seem very righteous."
Cheng Liren retorted in astonishment.
"Elder Cheng, we are doing this kind of thing in the dark. For anything done in the dark, there is no need to talk about righteousness. If you talk about righteousness, what happens if this boss threatens us with this matter in the future? Wouldn't we be under his control for life? Moreover, I've investigated, and although this ruined boss was wronged by Zhang Wei and is quite pitiful, he has also done many bad things and has killed many people for money. Therefore, killing him is not an act of indiscriminate killing."
Chen Feng appeased Cheng Liren.
"Since you say so, then I think killing him is indeed a foolproof solution. However, I think sending someone to kill him brazenly would also make people suspicious. Think about it, is there any other way that is not easily discovered?"
Cheng Liren probed.
"Hmm, let me think, how to kill someone without a trace. Hmm, I've got it. We can arrange for a car accident on the ruined boss's escape route. Wouldn't that be completely undetected? Many car accidents happen in Jiangcheng every day. Who would pay attention to the boss being killed in a car accident tomorrow?"
"Chen Feng, to be honest, your mind is really flexible. It's settled then. But there's one last question, is Sun Feng a hidden danger?"
Cheng Liren retorted.
"Don't worry, I haven't left any evidence for Sun Feng regarding the entire matter. Even if Sun Feng wanted to betray us, he has no evidence. Moreover, Sun Feng isn't an idiot. We are a community of interest, and he has no reason to betray us."
Chen Feng reassured Cheng Liren.
"Since that's the case, then we'll proceed according to the plan."
Cheng Liren said excitedly.
Chen Feng nodded in agreement.
Thus, the next day, Cheng Liren invited Zhang Wei to inspect an underground district, and Zhang Wei naturally agreed readily.
In Zhang Wei's eyes, Cheng Liren always invited him to do things, which meant Cheng Liren had not discovered the secret of the rare earth mine in the eastern suburbs of Jiangcheng.
He only needed to pretend to be with Cheng Liren for another week, and a major mine accident would occur in the eastern suburbs of Jiangcheng, making it impossible for Cheng Liren to survive.
Therefore, Zhang Wei, completely unsuspecting, went with Cheng Liren to a district below Jiangcheng.
What followed was exactly as predicted. Zhang Wei was sent to the west by a dagger from the ruined boss.
Then, the ruined boss fled in a panic and accidentally got hit by a car and died.
Because Cheng Liren mediated, the matter was eventually resolved with minimal impact, and it was concluded as Zhang Wei dying of illness in the hospital.
The Jiangcheng leadership unanimously agreed that Zhang Wei died of illness.
This was because if the truth were told that Zhang Wei died of assassination, the higher authorities would definitely send an inspection team to Jiangcheng. At that time, who knew how many people would suffer.
Therefore, the best outcome was for Zhang Wei to die of illness.
"Chen Feng, why did you kill that ruined boss?"
Three days later, Sun Feng, in his capacity as acting second-in-command, found Chen Feng.
"If we didn't kill the ruined boss, would we keep him to threaten us in the future?"
Chen Feng retorted.
"He was already going abroad, how could he threaten us?"
Sun Feng replied.
"At first, he definitely wouldn't threaten us, but who can guarantee that he won't threaten us for a lifetime?"
"That's true! Honestly, Chen Feng, I really didn't expect you to kill the ruined boss. In my opinion, you're not that kind of ruthless person."
Sun Feng exclaimed.
"I don't like killing people, but the arena of power is like the martial world. Many things are beyond one's control. A benevolent person cannot lead troops. If one is always soft-hearted and kind, one is absolutely not suitable for the arena of power."
Chen Feng replied calmly.
"Chen Feng, your words have given me a vivid lesson. By the way, what should we do next?"
Sun Feng asked with a fawning smile.
"You are now the second-in-command of Jiangcheng, and you are in charge of Jiangcheng's economy. To hold this position well and firmly, you must make every effort to achieve great development in Jiangcheng's economy. Otherwise, even with Cheng Liren's support to get this position, you will still be ousted by others."
Chen Feng said earnestly.
"Chen Feng, thank you for your advice. I know what to do."
After expressing his thanks, Sun Feng left Chen Feng's office to get busy.
As soon as Sun Feng left, Qin Yan entered the office.
"Chen Feng, I have good news for you."
Qin Yan said with a beaming smile.
"What good news?"
Chen Feng asked deliberately.
In fact, before Qin Yan entered the office, she already knew what the good news was.
"In this issue of the Jiangcheng Youth Training Camp, Cheng Lu and I have both been rated as outstanding学员 (xuéyuán)."
Qin Yan continued to say beamingly.
"Then congratulations to Deputy District Chief Qin."
Chen Feng replied cooperatively.
"Chen Feng, you have a high talent for power dynamics. Tell me, why did I also get rated as an outstanding学员 for the youth training camp? Cheng Lu was rated as an outstanding学员 for the youth training camp because of her father, Cheng Liren, which is normal. My connections, to be honest, are very weak."
Qin Yan asked with confusion.
