Chapter 444 They Don't Take Me Seriously at All
The police realized that Li Dashan was not seeking a lawyer but connections, so they snatched his phone away and hung up, then escorted Li Dashan to the police car to leave.
His lackeys were naturally also taken away in the police car.
On the way to the police station, Li Dashan did not show any signs of worry.
Since he had already called Wei Yongxiong, Wei Yongxiong would surely save him.
He was well aware of Wei Yongxiong's influence; as long as Wei Yongxiong made a move, he would certainly be fine.
At the beginning, when he was handling a demolition for Wei Yongxiong, a family was buried in the ruins of a collapsed building. After they were dug out, three of them had already perished, with only one person still alive.
When that person was being resuscitated in the hospital, Li Dashan personally pulled out the person's breathing tube.
For such matters, Wei Yongxiong would just make a phone call, and everything would be settled.
Today's incident was child's play in comparison, and it was nothing more than a matter of making a phone call.
Now, Wei Yongxiong was dining with some big shot. Perhaps, there wouldn't even be a need to make a call, and a single word might suffice.
Thinking of these things, Li Dashan completely relaxed and even started humming a tune involuntarily.
...
In a high-class restaurant, in a private room.
Wei Yongxiong, upon hearing the call had been disconnected, frowned and could not help but curse, "Li Dashan, you son of a bitch, calling me only after you've been caught, why don't you just go die!"
Once he finished speaking, the middle-aged man opposite him smiled and said, "President Wei, we agreed that today we would only dine and not deal with any work issues."
This middle-aged man was the director Lu, the main guest of tonight's dinner.
As Director Lu spoke, immediately someone echoed, "Exactly, we're here to dine, not to work. After dining, we shall accompany Director Lu to study a foreign language."
Wei Yongxiong's face was all apologies as he chuckled, "Director Lu, I don't wish to deal with work either, but this man is my right-hand man. Without him, I can't get many things done. Rest assured, I won't let it interrupt our meal. I need to make a few phone calls; please be indulgent."
"Why would you need to make calls while I'm here?" Director Lu feigned annoyance. "What's his name? I'll handle it for you!"
Wei Yongxiong laughed.
That was precisely the response he was hoping Director Lu would give.
He had intentionally cursed earlier, aiming to draw Director Lu's attention and bring the discussion to this matter.
Indeed, his expectations had been met.
So he immediately replied, "Actually, it's not a big deal. My man, named Li Dashan, got into trouble in Xicheng District with someone with a bit of money and was arrested by the police."
"For just this minor matter, why would you need to make a few calls? One phone call from me can settle it!"
Director Lu laughed, took out his cell phone, and dialed a number.
Soon, the call was connected.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he said, "I heard that because of some trifling issue, you've arrested a person named Li Dashan?"
Without waiting for a reply, he continued, "This kind of work attitude is very problematic. Remember, we serve the people, not the wealthy. You should allocate your police force where the people need it, to be the guardians of public safety, not to arrest people whenever some rich person calls!"
The person at the other end of the call was speechless.
Thinking, we didn't respond to the call of the wealthy.
We were responding to a legitimate call for police assistance.
We are serving the people indeed.
There is nothing wrong with our work attitude.
Yet to you, we seem utterly incompetent.
With this in mind, he was about to explain.
But before he could start speaking, Director Lu added, "First release the person. In the future, don't bother with this kind of trivial issue, got it?"
After saying this, he hung up the phone abruptly.
Putting down the cell phone, he turned to Wei Yongxiong and smiled, "It's taken care of. Your man will be released soon!"
"Thank you, Director Lu, let me toast to you!" Wei Yongxiong immediately filled his glass and downed it in one go.
Director Lu, showing respect to Wei Yongxiong, also drank a glass.
...
At the entrance of the Xicheng District Police Station.
Li Dashan, who had just been arrested, was released before even starting the interrogation.
Indeed, with Wei Yongxiong stepping in, walking into the police station was not an issue at all.
Wei Yongxiong was truly formidable.
Immediately after, he thought of Xu Yang. Continue reading stories on empire
Xu Yang had not only sent his brother to the station but also dared to call the police on him.
This grudge had to be avenged; otherwise, he couldn't swallow his pride.
At that moment, his underlings also came out of the police station.
Being released from the police station so quickly today, the underlings felt that they could boast about their clout from now on.
They gathered around Li Dashan and immediately started clamoring.
"Brother Shan, that Xu Yang actually called the police on us, we absolutely can't let this go!"
"Exactly, who cares if he's a billionaire, we have to show him our strength!"
"Brother Shan, we've come out so quickly, it proves our connections are even more formidable than his. I think we can directly go to his house and take care of his family too!"
"He must have a girlfriend or wife, right? With his status, they're bound to be beautiful. If we show up at his house, who knows, we might get to have some fun, heh heh!"
"Hahaha, it would be great if we could have some fun!"
...
Li Dashan was pleased with his underlings' attitude, "First, I'll find out where he is, take him down, get revenge, and then go to his house!"
After saying that, he took out his phone and made a call.
Some underlings had been on the lookout just now and hadn't been caught.
Those who hadn't been caught were quick-witted and had been following Xu Yang.
Soon, he received a message that Xu Yang was still strolling around the streets.
"Damn it, this guy is still strolling around, as if he doesn't take me seriously at all," Li Dashan felt disrespected and flew into a rage, waving his hand decisively, "Let's go, get our weapons, take care of his damn mother, today we must teach him a severe lesson!"
...
Xu Yang was indeed still strolling around the streets.
However, his stroll was not aimless; he had noticed that someone was following him, probably Li Dashan's men, and he was prepared to deal with another move from Li Dashan.
Suddenly, he saw dozens of people approaching from in front.
Footsteps sounded from behind, and turning his head, he saw dozens more approaching from the rear.
It was September, the weather was still very hot, and people were wearing short sleeves.
But these men were in long-sleeve jackets, one hand tucked inside their coats, as if they were holding something.
Looking at both ends of the street, he noticed that numerous cars were blocking the way.
Those outside couldn't enter, those inside couldn't leave.
The sound of car horns and cursing fused together, but it was all useless.
This spectacle had been staged by Li Dashan.
It had to be said, he really did have the means; it didn't take long for him to muster such a large force.
He had learned his lesson this time.
Earlier, he had been cornered by the police, with no choice but to be arrested as there was nowhere to run.
This time, he had people block both ends of the street so even if the police arrived, they couldn't get in.
Haha!
This time around, he planned to put on a show of being ruthless and taciturn, not like earlier when he wasted time babbling with Xu Yang.
