Chapter 78: Chapter 78: You Idiot

“Who sent you to make trouble?” the police asked Wang Wu.

“I don’t know their name; they contacted me via WeChat and gave me ten thousand yuan just to come here and make trouble, to shut down this restaurant,” Wang Wu said bitterly.

This had gotten out of hand; he was going to end up inside again.

“Open up WeChat on your phone and show me the chat history,” demanded the police officer.

Wang Wu took out his phone and pulled up the conversation with the contact.

[Affectionate Sir]: A friend referred you, I have a job for you to do.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: No problem, what’s the job?

[Affectionate Sir]: Create a disturbance at a restaurant to force it to close down.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: That’s my specialty, ten thousand yuan upfront, payment before service, honest business.

[Affectionate Sir]: Your friend A Le referred me to you, can’t you go any lower?

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: Boss, it’s only because Le Brother referred you that I’m asking for ten thousand. Otherwise, I would have charged twenty thousand straight up. This kind of job is risky; if the restaurant owner puts up a fight, I could get beaten up, even beaten half to death. I’m earning blood money here, so let’s not quibble over this.

[Affectionate Sir]: Alright, ten thousand it is.

[Affectionate Sir]: Transferring ten thousand.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: Received ten thousand.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: Send over the restaurant’s name and address.

[Affectionate Sir]: Zhao’s Restaurant, located at XX Road YY number.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: When do you want me to take action?

[Affectionate Sir]: Tomorrow night.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: Just wait for my good news, I guarantee that by the day after tomorrow, the restaurant won’t be able to open.

[Affectionate Sir]: I hope you won’t disappoint me.

[Jiangcheng Wu Brother]: You can rest easy; I, Jiangcheng Wu Brother, am absolutely reliable. If it weren’t so, Le Brother wouldn’t have referred you to me.

[Affectionate Sir]: Good, I’ll wait for your good news.

Chat ended.

The police officer chuckled: “Jiangcheng Wu Brother, such a pretentious name.”

The young man offered an embarrassed smile: “In our line of work, isn’t it all about taking on a name that sounds powerful?”

The police said: “Come with us. We’ll track down who this Affectionate Sir is.”

Afterward, the police left.

Staff from the Health Inspection Bureau checked the kitchen and, finding no issues, they also left.

Finally, the matter was resolved.

Lin Junyi and his two companions greeted everyone and left as well.

Only Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin remained there, keeping Zhao Hai company.

Zhao Yuxin said angrily, “Dad, this must be the doing of Yang Tiancheng. He just doesn’t want the restaurant to succeed. Only he would stoop so low, it’s utterly shameless.”

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “It wasn’t Yang Tiancheng. I know him. Although he’s shameless and doesn’t mind using despicable methods to strike at competitors, this incident is too amateurish for someone as sly as him. Hiring someone to disrupt my restaurant just so he can take over my store? He’s not that naive. The person who hired the disruptor is definitely a novice.”

Zhao Yuxin frowned: “Then who else would hire someone to cause trouble? We haven’t offended anyone else, have we?”

Zhao Hai shook his head: “No, I can’t figure out who would target me like this.”

To be honest, he was puzzled as well.

It was impossible for neighboring restaurants in the industry to target him.

His restaurant had been in business for over a decade.

He had a good relationship with the owners of the neighboring restaurants.

Everyone was in business, and normal competition was fine, including offering discounts and promotions, but they wouldn’t resort to such tactics against him.

Moreover, this is not something a mature person would do.

It’s as if it were done by someone with the thought process of a petty thug.

Xu Yang said, “Dad, if you can’t guess it, then let’s not guess. The police are already aware of the WeChat account, and as soon as they check, they’ll know. I’ll get a lawyer to follow up on this case, and no matter who it is, they can’t be let off.”

WeChat accounts are under a real-name system; with the account, it’s easy to find the real person.

Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Right, the police should be able to catch the mastermind behind this very soon.”

…

Outside the restaurant.

Yang Jingsheng sat in his car, watching everything happening inside the restaurant.

Wang Wu was the person he had found.

This was his plan.

He thought that if Zhao Hai’s restaurant couldn’t continue operating, Zhao Hai would have to rent it out.

Initially, he saw everything going smoothly.

Although he couldn’t hear the voices inside the restaurant, he could figure out the situation based on Wang Wu’s and the other customers’ actions.

But it didn’t take long for the situation to change.

Xu Yang led some people over, and then the sanitary inspectors and the police arrived.

The police took Wang Wu away.

At that moment, Yang Jingsheng was utterly dumbfounded.

Seeing Wang Wu being taken away by the police, Yang Jingsheng panicked.

Since the person was introduced by a friend, and the friend had assured that the person was absolutely reliable and that everything would be fine with Wang Wu involved,

he had added Wang Wu on WeChat using his own phone and contacted him directly.

Since WeChat is under a real-name system, it would be very easy for the police to find him.

He immediately started his sedan and rushed home.

Upon returning home, the first thing he did was to find Yang Tiancheng and explain the situation, then with a mournful face, he said, “Dad, what do we do now? If the police come knocking, I might not go to prison, but I am bound to be detained and fined!”

“You fool!” Yang Tiancheng couldn’t help but curse loudly; this was the first time he had ever scolded his son like this. “Who do you think Zhao Hai is? Do you believe that just some thug causing trouble would make him helpless?”

He had decided to trust his son once because he firmly claimed to have a solution.

But he had never imagined his son would be so foolish as to use such a low-level trick against Zhao Hai.

If Zhao Hai were that easy to deal with, he wouldn’t have been taken seriously by him in the past.

Zhao Yulu and Liu Yujuan also looked at Yang Jingsheng with mocking glances.

They had thought that Yang Jingsheng had come up with some clever plan.

But to their surprise, his plan was to send a thug to cause trouble.

Yang Jingsheng’s brain really wasn’t that great after all.

Yang Jingsheng, who was now anxious, didn’t notice their looks; otherwise, he would have flown into a rage.

He might lack ability, but he was not willing to admit it to himself.

For a person to admit their own lack of capability is very difficult.

Despite some people constantly saying “I’m not very capable” out loud, in reality, it’s just talk and not a true admission of their own incompetence.

This applies to people from all walks of life, no matter what social class they belong to.

Yang Jingsheng said bitterly, “I just didn’t expect him to be so formidable, to ruin my plan just like that.”

Suddenly, he gritted his teeth in anger, “Right, Xu Yang got involved. If it weren’t for him, my man would have gotten away and wouldn’t have been caught by the police. You could say that the current situation is all Xu Yang’s fault!”

He had seen it very clearly. Xu Yang had arrived with a few people, and just as Wang Wu was pushing Zhao Hai away to leave, it was Xu Yang’s people who stopped Wang Wu. Finally, when the police arrived, Wang Wu ended up being caught.
