Chapter 619: Thirty Years in Three Minutes

As the topic gradually deepened, the atmosphere in the teahouse became slightly more subtle. Qin Fei was tense and ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

This is Qin Fei's professionalism. Of course, no matter how courageous Zhong Liyun is, he cannot attack the police inspectors in his own territory, otherwise he will be wiped out that day.

As a "friend", Chen Yi asked about Zhong Liyun's early experiences, and Zhong Liyun asked if Chen Yi came to Dongli for other matters.

"I pick up garbage, sleep in bridge holes, and occasionally steal food to eat. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed." Zhong Liyun said.

The thefts that occurred decades ago have long passed the prosecution period. Even if they had not, a street child stealing things in order to survive would not be followed by a police officer no matter how strong his principles were. If word spread, his reputation would be ruined.

"I'm very curious about Dong Zhong's first pot of gold." Chen Yidao.

Zhong Liyun smiled: "At that time... Chen Xun was still in elementary school, right? And what I have to consider every day is how to survive. It is not enough to rely on brains alone to rise to the bottom. With the help of noble people, you can get twice the result with half the effort. I am very lucky to have met My lord has arrived.”

He mentioned a boss named Xiang Shi.

When the video hall was not eliminated, Zhong Liyun liked to go to the video hall to pick up leftover food and water from others. He would eat it first and then take it back to Qiu Jie.

Qiu Jie almost couldn't hold back her tears as her memory was brought back to around the millennium.

What Zhong Liyun said was not entirely correct. How could he be full with the leftover food in the video hall? Later, Qiu Jie learned that Zhong Liyun kept most of the food for himself, and there were very few times when he could eat enough.

Later, the owner of the video hall saw that Zhong Liyun was pitiful, so he kept him as a film player and paid him 300 yuan a month.

Three hundred yuan was a lot, and the brother and sister finally lived a life without worrying about food and clothing, and even bought new clothes.

Qiu Jie was deeply impressed.

The first piece of clothing Zhong Liyun bought for her back then is still kept at home.

Chen Yi chatted: "Isn't the golden age of the video hall almost over?"

Zhong Liyun: "Yes, with the development of the times, video halls have gradually lost their market. The main reason is the popularity of VCD and DVD. Most families can now buy their own discs to watch at home, and the video halls quickly closed down.

Although the video hall collapsed, there are still new products of the era, such as Internet cafes, game halls, and dance halls. Uncle Xiang followed the times and opened an Internet cafe, and I worked as a network administrator in the Internet cafe.

Uncle Xiang's industry developed rapidly. After the first Internet cafe, there was a second one. After opening the fourth one, Uncle Xiang moved to KTV, and I became the manager of the four stores. "

Chen Yi nodded slightly.

This is very reasonable. To start from scratch, you must have a beginning. Since there is help from noble people, Zhong Liyun's rise is understandable.

At that time, a person who could own four Internet cafes and a KTV was considered a respectable person, not to mention a big boss, and he would not suffer any loss by following Xiang Shi.

Zhong Liyun didn't go into details about the process, so he thought there would definitely be a fight.

In the new millennium, when the campaign against gangs and evil had not spread across the country, places like Internet cafes, game arcades, KTVs, and dance halls were definitely not peaceful.

As the manager of four Internet cafes, Zhong Liyun has to deal with more than just business.

"What happened next?" Chen Yi listened with interest.

"Later..." Zhong Liyun glanced at Qiu Jie beside him, whose face was a little cold, "Later, Ajie grew up and became more and more beautiful and slim. Uncle Xiang fell in love with her."

Chen Yi was startled for a moment and looked at Qiu Jie.

With her looks and figure, no man would dislike her, and she is more attractive to older men.

This is embarrassing.

After all, Xiang Shi was a noble man who helped the brother and sister. If it weren't for Xiang Shi, the two of them might still be wandering. How to deal with it is a big problem.

Looking at the relationship between the two, Zhong Liyun would never give Qiu Jie away just to keep his status and money.

The story is a bit exciting, but a bit cliche, but if you think about it carefully, it is very realistic and consistent with human nature.

"Uncle Xiang and I had a falling out." Zhong Liyun said, "He was very persistent with Ajie. I couldn't agree to it, so I resigned and left the Internet cafe to go to a dance hall.

I am grateful to Uncle Xiang, so when conflicts arise in business, I try to avoid them and focus on peace talks. "

Business conflict?

Chen Yi automatically translated business conflicts into personal conflicts between bosses. Unlike now, you can definitely see exciting fights on the street late at night.

Regardless of whether the store property is owned or rented, when fighting for territory, everyone likes to use their fists to do the talking.

If you have a hard fist and are ruthless enough, your power will expand very quickly. This is the case in the entertainment industry.

Things are much better now. They are very restrained and use their service attitude to compete for customer traffic.

"Later, I founded Yunjie."

Zhong Liyun ended with a simple first sentence.

Thirty years of life were finished in three minutes. Chen Yi knew that he had omitted some things, but he was still relatively sincere.

He knew that the special case team's visit to Dongli was probably for him, but he still showed goodwill. It was impossible to tell whether he was being scheming, sincere, or both.

Chen Yi "reciprocated the favor", saying that in addition to traveling to Dongli this time, he also wanted to pay homage to the Emperor of the Mountains and Seas. The word "Emperor" is not something ordinary people can have.

Zhong Liyun smiled and waved his hands: "Those are all the heckles of people with ulterior motives. It's not sure what the purpose is. Maybe they are to kill me and set me on fire.

I'm just a businessman. "

After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment and added: "At least for now."

The meaning of this sentence is obvious, it was not clean before.

Chen Yi was somewhat surprised. He didn't know whether he should be more wary of Zhong Liyun or have a new view.

The smarter and calmer the person, the harder it is to deal with them.

While chatting, Chen Yi quietly brought the topic to charity, and it was Qiu Jie who spoke this time.

"Over the years, Yunjie Group has sponsored more than 1,600 orphans and poor children, more than 80% of whom have successfully completed their studies, and some have chosen to work in Yunjie. Wei Dongchen, whom Chen Xun met, is one of them.

Very few people know about this. "

"Oh?" Chen Yi was a little surprised. Wei Dongchen was already thirty-four years old.

Qiu Jie said: "Wei Dongchen was nineteen years old when we met him. His mother was bedridden and his father was disabled. It was Yun Jie, who was just starting out at the time, who helped him successfully go to college and also ensured his parents' medical care and basic living.

After graduation, he came to the company by himself and said that he was willing to work for Director Zhong for ten years for free, as long as he took care of food, food and housing.

Seeing that he had made up his mind and could not drive him away, Director Zhong stayed, but his salary was still paid normally. Over time, Director Zhong felt that this young man was good and he was willing to leave many things to him. "

She should be referring to Wan Rui from the community hospital.

This kind of thing will definitely be left to someone you trust.

At this time, Zhong Liyun said: "I came out of the darkness back then. I know how difficult it is to live. Since I have the ability, I don't want to see those children still in the darkness. Every time I see them, I feel like I'm watching them." To my former self.”

One code after another, Chen Yi expressed his respect and asked the other party why he did not do charity publicly, which would also be good for the company.

"Do you need to leave a name to do good deeds?" The person who asked the question was not Zhong Liyun, but Qiu Jie. This woman was not a person who could hide her emotions, or she was unwilling to hide her emotions when facing Chen Yi.

Zhong Liyun warned Qiu Jie for the second time, and then said: "Reputation is not important to me at all."

Hearing this, Qin Fei couldn't help but said: "Then why should you accept the honor of anti-drug pioneer?"

It was too late for Chen Yi to stop him.

This time, it feels like the special case team is the villain.

Qiu Jie was about to speak, but her expression seemed like she was about to curse, but Zhong Liyun's two warnings made her hold back, and she just glared at Qin Fei with her beautiful eyes.

Zhong Liyun smiled and said: "This police officer is different. Drug control needs to be made public, so that everyone knows that I, Zhong Liyun, am the sworn enemy of drugs. I will report it when I see it. I will not show mercy. Anyone who wants to come to me is welcome at any time."

Not to mention, it was really useful. The anti-drug brigade arrested several groups of people who wanted to take revenge on me. They followed the clues and seized a lot of drugs, arrested several drug dealers, and saved countless families. "

Qin Fei's self-involved answer made him feel like a clown, and he lowered his head slightly and stopped interrupting.

If what we just talked about is true, then only Chen Yi is qualified to talk to people like Zhong Liyun.

"Dr. Zhong can be called a role model," Chen Yi said.

Zhong Liyun: "I dare not take it seriously. Compared with Chen Xun, the things I, Zhong Liyun, have done seem insignificant.

To be honest, I have known Chen Xun for a long time... Of course Chen Xun does not know me, but unfortunately I have never had the opportunity to meet him. Today, my wish has been fulfilled, and I welcome Chen Xun to Dongli and Shanhai again.

If you need anything, just ask. "

After the tea cooled, Chen Yi left Yunjie Group.

tea room.

"What a pity. I really want to be friends with him." Zhong Liyun said to Qiu Jie.

Qiu Jie snorted: "He is here to check you out, not to make friends with you."

Zhong Liyun was helpless: "There is no conflict."

Outside the gate of Yunjie Group.

"What a pity. I really want to make friends with him." Chen Yi said to Qin Fei.

Qin Fei asked: "Team Chen thinks Zhong Liyun has no problem?"

Chen Yi shook his head: "No, on the contrary, this person has a lot of problems, but he doesn't know what he did in his early years or what he is doing now. He has obvious two sides. We have seen the white side, and the dark side. What does it look like?”

Qin Fei: "Gray?"

Chen Yi: "Yes, it can't be said to be pure white, nor can it be said to be pure black. The Zhong Liyun I saw exudes a delicate gray, just like..."

He looked at the busy traffic on the road: "It's just like this world."

Qin Fei hesitated: "How about asking about the Imperial City?"

Chen Yidao: "I'm afraid He doesn't know it either. If he knew it, he would have to wait until now.

After meeting Zhong Liyun, I understood what He Bu meant. This chairman who rose from the bottom must have taken a different approach back then. The so-called profitable business... was all written in the "Criminal Law".

I just don’t know who is asking me to see Zhong Liyun now or Zhong Liyun before? "

The question was a bit high-end and Qin Fei couldn't express his opinion. After meeting Zhong Liyun in Dongli, he felt as if he had returned to the police station again and saw that there were people outside the world.

He still needs to learn a lot, including his character and vision.

"Wu Ruiyang..." Chen Yi took out a cigarette and lit it, silently recited the name, and quickly made a decision, "Wait a little longer, don't be in a hurry, let's feel the prosperity of Dongli first."

…

At night, Dongli's light and shadow painting slowly unfolds, making the city seem to be put on dazzling new clothes and brightly lit.

After tasting the expensive buffet, the special case team walked along the riverside. The landmark buildings in the distance illuminated the night sky, and the light jumped on the river.

In the sparkling waves, colorful cruise ships slowly passed by, leaving crisscrossing tracks.

"After all, it is a coastal city. Is it possible that Zhong Liyun is suspected of smuggling?"

The speaker was He Xin.

After Chen Yi thought that Zhong Liyun had problems, the special case team had already regarded him as a potential criminal suspect.

Cheng Hanjun said: "From the nature of Yunjie Group, it is not impossible. Many of its products are shipped overseas, and there must be special freight channels.

Shanhaihuang, it is not difficult for someone who can be called Shanhaihuang to do this."

Several people agreed, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt that it was very likely, and Chen Yi just looked at the ship on the river gradually going away, without expressing his opinion.

There is no use in guessing without any clues.

Even if you want to guess, you have to guess based on the existing clues. The current Zhong Liyun is still a pioneer in drug control and a kind person who has sponsored thousands of children.

"If he can help orphans, he shouldn't hurt innocent people."

...

"Everything he did was not done casually. The psychological traces are obvious. This is a direction for investigation."

...

"If it's smuggling, the only loss is the country. The seller makes money and the buyer saves money. There is no loss of interests or personal injury. It is still possible."

Chen Yi did not completely ignore the conversation between the few people. His thoughts were moving.

"Adult products are indeed a good cover... Could it be smuggling?"

...

"If he really went ashore, do I still need to investigate his early years?"

...

"We can't ignore his ruthlessness. This person may have extreme duality. He stood out as a street child in that era. I don't believe that he didn't have blood on his hands."

...

"It's okay to get blood on his hands, but it's serious to get human lives on his hands."

It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening after enjoying the night view of Dongli. The six members of the special case team did not return to the hotel, but drove to an Internet cafe in Shanhai District.

Looking out the window in the car, the prosperity gradually faded, and the number of old houses began to increase.

Dongli also has relatively backward development areas, especially the old industrial areas, which have a single industrial structure, resulting in slow economic development and unable to catch up with the internationalization of the prosperous areas.

The Internet cafe we ​​are going to is at the border of Shanhai and another old industrial area.

Xiang Shi's information has been retrieved. The glory of his early years is gone. Now there is only one Internet cafe under his name.

The vehicle stopped and six people got off. The Internet cafe was very old and had been there for a while. Half of the neon lights were broken. It seemed that it would close down and be replaced by a new store at any time.

There was a faint pink light flashing in the alley in the distance, and illegal transactions were being done secretly.

Any city has upper and lower classes.

Chen Yi took a look and retracted his gaze. He was not interested in cracking down on pornography.

Entering the Internet cafe, the damp and moldy smell hit us in the face. Occasionally, young people could be seen wearing headphones and surfing in the online world. They were all men and no women.

The bar counter was right at the entrance, but there was no cashier.

The six people waited for a while, and the staggering man left the bathroom and returned. It can be seen that the other party's right leg was very unnatural and could not be used. He was a cripple.

Judging from his appearance, it is vaguely recognizable that it is Xiang Shi.

Times have changed. The man who was once a big shot can only survive in a broken Internet cafe now.

"How many computers do you want?" Xiang Shi walked into the bar and asked casually.

Chen Yi: "Are your legs born or injured later?"

This made Xiang Shi look up, and his unshaven face frowned: "Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Maybe." Chen Yi raised his hand and waved lightly, and Qin Fei immediately took out his ID.

Knowing the identity of the police, Xiang Shi did not react much: "Comrade police, is there anything? From the accent, you are from another place?"

Chen Yi nodded: "From another place, can we chat?"

Xiang Shi: "Chat, oh, you are asking about my legs, right? Someone beat me up for many years."

Chen Yi smiled faintly: "Could it be Zhong Liyun who beat me? You were so bold back then?"

The prosecution period for intentional injury causing serious injury is ten years, provided that no case has been filed.

Hearing Zhong Liyun's name, Xiang Shi's face changed slightly, and he re-examined Chen Yi, Qin Fei and the other four: "Where are you police from? What case are you investigating?"
