Chapter 679 The Contest of Multiple Forces
After the driver got out of the car, Fan Mingming immediately turned her head and asked, "Brother Ruan, that's not what we agreed on at the beginning!"
Ruan Zheng Tan wiped the corner of his mouth with his little finger and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"We said we would only put pressure on the Su family, destroy their marriage relationship with the Gui family, and let them leave Hanoi," Fan Mingming replied anxiously, "But why did you have someone shoot Su Miaomiao's father, and you didn't tell us?!"
"Hehe." Ruan Zheng Tan grinned, "Are you teaching the Military Intelligence Agency how to do things?"
Hearing this, Fan Mingming's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly realized that the person sitting in front of her was a Major General and Deputy Director, not some small fry. Therefore, her anger and incomprehension were immediately suppressed.
"I didn't mean that, Brother Ruan, I mean...!" Fan Mingming wanted to explain.
Ruan Zheng Tan waved his hand, interrupting her with a relaxed tone, "Have you ever been to the Gobi Desert in the Hua District? Thousands of kilometers, with only one road. Once you decide to start from the beginning, there is no possibility of turning back. Either reach the end, or die of thirst and hunger, because you can only encounter gas stations for supplies if you keep moving forward."
Fan Mingming was silent.
"In life, many things don't offer multiple choices, nor do they allow you to deal with them with relatively smooth methods." Ruan Zheng Tan looked at her with a smile and said, "What's the use of you messing with the Su family a little, without really hurting them? They'll get over it and still cooperate with Gui Mengjun, right? Can a little chicken blood and duck blood stop Gui Mengjun's determination to marry Su Miaomiao? Please, why does Gui Mengjun want to marry Su Miaomiao? Because he's betting on the Dragon City track. The Hua District's political direction is to connect with Dragon City, so Li Mingsheng, who hasn't shown malice towards the Hua District, is the fattest piece of meat! Gui Mengjun marrying a woman from the Su family is equivalent to taking his relationship with Li Mingsheng a step further, which will enhance his role and position. Behind this are such complex political goals, can you extinguish them with a bucket of chicken blood?"
"But you killed Su Miaomiao's father, and things have become serious and out of control! What if Li Mingsheng closes the door to contact with the Old Triad, or if the Su family doesn't want to play with us anymore?" Fan Mingming said with a pale face, "Then, Little Northwest King and the higher-ups will definitely mess with our family! They'll use us as scapegoats!"
"You still don't understand. The death of Su Miaomiao's father will not affect the cooperative relationship! Old Li needs military supplies to support that Chinese armed force. Is he so naive that he would cut off this line because a Su family member died? Wouldn't all the previous investments be in vain?" Ruan Zheng Tan said with a smile, "Killing Su's second uncle is to make the Su family resent Gui Mengjun! Because of his operational errors, because of the marriage he proposed, there is dissatisfaction within the family, and someone from the Gui family pulled the trigger! Then Su Tianyu will definitely hate him, but this will not affect your future involvement in the cooperative relationship! Frankly speaking, who knows you're pulling the strings behind the scenes except for us?"
Fan Mingming was speechless.
"We did the dirty work for you, and you'll take over the mess later. There's no downside to that." Ruan Zheng Tan threw away the glutinous rice ball wrapper and held up two fingers, "In this matter, neither my people nor your people can be used, only the Gui family's! Otherwise, the hatred can't be transferred."
Fan Mingming felt that the other party's methods were too ruthless, and she felt a little uneasy.
"Next, two things need to be done. First, find the Su family members, deal with a few of them, and make them completely fall out with the Gui family. Second, force the Gui family to hand over their shares and property rights, which your family will take over. In this way, regardless of whether Xiang Jingyang in the Southwest appreciates Gui Mengjun, the Gui family will definitely be out of the game, because they've messed things up both upstream and downstream." Ruan Zheng Tan said softly, "At that time, Xiang Jingyang's only choice will be the Fan family. Only your scale and prestige can continue to handle this matter."
Fan Mingming was silent for a long time, then suddenly asked, "After the Gui family is out, what about Gui Mengjun...!"
"Hehe, you don't want to talk to me about romance, do you?" Ruan Zheng Tan asked incredulously, "You're not that naive, are you? Sister?"
"You mean, he won't live?" Fan Mingming asked.
"Of course he can't be left alive!" Ruan Zheng Tan frowned and replied, "He has money and people. Can you sleep soundly if he's left alive? I've already completed his case. I'll execute him before I leave after he hands over the shares and property rights. Mingming, your family's current situation is very good. We're helping you in the dark, and you have the care of the royal relatives in the upper echelons. Your future is limitless."
Fan Mingming clenched her fists, her brain working rapidly.
"I just received news that the Su family members were picked up by people from Hongrun Group and are currently at Dongsheng Express. You're familiar with the Gui family's people, so you handle this matter, and I'll take care of the rest." Ruan Zheng Tan pushed open the car door, "Don't think too much, as I said before, there's no turning back once you've started down this path."
These words had a double meaning, with a certain sense of reminder and threat. Fan Mingming could understand, but she couldn't change anything.
"Okay."
Fan Mingming nodded expressionlessly.
"That's it!"
Ruan Zheng Tan closed the car door and left.
…
On the way back to the Ministry of Supervision.
Ruan Zheng Tan dialed a number and asked in a low voice, "Have my family members boarded the ship? Good, tell the leader that I've almost finished my operation here!"
About twenty minutes later.
Fan Mingming's car stopped on a small street, and a middle-aged man yanked the door open and got into the car.
"A Lai! The people are at Dongsheng Express, tell your people to do it!" Fan Mingming ordered.
"What about after it's done?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"You go your way, I won't pay you less." Fan Mingming looked down at her watch, "Come back after the heat has died down."
"No problem." The middle-aged man grinned, "It's a pleasure to work with you!"
"Get out of the car!" Fan Mingming turned her head and looked out the window, replying.
The middle-aged man blinked, paused, and said, "Mingming, there's something I've always wanted to tell you! Actually... I'm better than Gui Mengjun!"
Fan Mingming frowned, "Get out of the car!!"
"Hehe, I'll talk to you later!" The middle-aged man waved his hand, pushed the door open, and left.
…
District One, New York City, Kessler Community.
More than a dozen police cars were parked at the entrance of the community, and a total of about fifty or sixty burly police officers were controlling the scene, supervising the prisoners' labor activities within the community.
Around the community, inside the cab of a truck, a man took a deep drag of his cigarette and asked, "So, should I do it?"
