Chapter 1086 Everything is a constant
Looking at the large pile of money on the table, Lu Shaohua and the others unconsciously swallowed.
Although they had seen this much cash before, it was only a few million, but now there was a full thirty million in cash in front of them!
Although Hong Kong dollars come in large denominations, they are mostly in the hundreds or hundreds denominations; the thousand-dollar bull denomination is very rare, or practically nonexistent.
Having such a large sum of money in front of you is very impactful.
Especially with Lao Gui, Lin Yaodong, and Wang Lin, Lu Shaohua was able to remain somewhat calm, after all, he had money before and was very shrewd, but he could not hide his excitement.
The other three went completely mad. They rushed forward, grabbed the money, and kept sniffing it from the pile of cash.
"Brother Hua, we've really struck it rich! I've never seen so much money in my life!" Wang Lin said excitedly to Lu Shaohua.
"Don't talk about you! Even I've never seen so much money before!" Old Ghost said in his Taiwanese accent, which was quite amusing.
Lin Yaodong, like the other two, didn't say a word. He just lay on the pile of money, closed his eyes, and felt the allure of wealth.
"Alright, let's split this money first, then we'll go and trade with Zhao Shuangxi!" Lu Shaohua, befitting his role as a leader, spoke up directly.
"Young Master Zhao, I heard today that all the branches of Dongxing have started selling large quantities of methamphetamine!" Wei Shang said as he sat in his office, Han Bin's voice coming from the phone in his hand.
"It seems that the poison master really is in Mingzhu. This must be their newly made one!" Wei Shang said through gritted teeth.
"But we've searched the entire Pearl River Delta and haven't found a single trace. Where could they possibly have set up a drug manufacturing workshop?" Han Bin asked, his face full of confusion.
“Actually, there’s something we’ve overlooked!” Wei Shang said.
"Oh? Where is that place?" Han Bin asked curiously.
“Making methamphetamine relies entirely on chemical reactions, so it doesn’t require much space. And Mingzhu has plenty of such space. Where do you think they could possibly set up their workshop?” Wei Shang said helplessly.
"You mean on fishing boats or cargo ships?" Han Bin was a smart man; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to expand his arms business to various countries.
“That’s right! We overlooked those ships before, and I only realized it after I got back,” Wei Shang said.
“But if they’re really on a ship, then we really won’t be able to find them. The waters around Mingzhu are so vast, it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack! And the only ones who would know their exact location are probably the real high-ranking members of Dongxing. Even the lower-ranking members on the periphery wouldn’t know.” Han Bin rubbed his teeth and said with a bitter expression.
“I will notify the coast guards on the mainland and in Mingzhu to cooperate and keep an eye on these ships overseas. This is something the Tianqiao Society can no longer handle. Your most urgent task now is to see if you can bribe one of Dongxing's core underlings. After all, the boss can't do everything!” Wei Shang said.
"Yes, young master, I'll think of a way right away!" Han Bin said.
After hanging up the phone, Wei Shang looked at the intelligence report on the table and rubbed his temples, feeling truly troubled.
"Director Zhao, this is Li Weimin!" Shortly after Wei Shang hung up the phone, another call came in.
"What's the matter?" Wei Shang asked curiously. Li Weimin, because Lu Shaohua got away, had been in Sihanoukville with Lin Qiangfeng and the others investigating the Daegu line that Li An had been following.
"Director Zhao, we arrested a drug dealer in Sihanoukville today. It's Zhao Shuangxi, the owner of Jiulong Hair Salon, and Daegu!" Li Weimin said.
"What? Really? How did you catch him?" Wei Shang finally heard some good news.
"For some unknown reason, the two of them got into a gunfight on a wild beach in Sihanoukville. Both Zhao Shuangxi and Daegu were seriously injured and are currently trying to save themselves. We don't know the specifics of their condition," Li Weimin said.
"Alright, that's good now. We must find a way to get them to talk!" Wei Shang said.
"Don't worry, we'll definitely get them to talk!" Li Weimin assured him.
"Okay, I'll wait for your good news!" Wei Shang said and then hung up the phone.
Once the drug trafficking network in Daegu is dismantled, Lu Shaohua won't be able to sell any more methamphetamine to the mainland, making things much easier for us. At least we won't come up with absolutely no progress.
Thinking of this, Wei Shang picked up the phone again and called Shi Yong, asking him to contact the coast guard and focus on checking the ships in the waters around Mingzhu during this period.
"Director Zhao, do you mean that Lu Shaohua would set up a drug manufacturing workshop on the ship?" Shi Yong asked, somewhat incredulously.
“Very likely, after all, we’ve searched every corner of Mingzhu! Since it’s not on land, it must be at sea! Keep an eye on things here, I’ll contact Mingzhu again in a bit and ask them to search there too!” Wei Shang said.
"No problem, but we have relatively few coast guard vessels, so this process may take a long time," Shi Yong said with some difficulty.
“We must find him! No matter how difficult it is, we can’t give up. Han Bin just called me and said that Dongxing has started selling methamphetamine on a large scale. That means Lu Shaohua has already remade a large batch of methamphetamine. This person is too dangerous. We can’t let this go unchecked!” Wei Shang said seriously.
"Okay, Director Zhao, I'll do my best!" Shi Yong also knew that this matter could not be taken lightly.
While Wei Shang was busy dealing with Lu Shaohua's matter, an ambush was taking place deep in the jungle of the southwestern border region.
"Chief of Staff, let us handle this battle. You haven't been feeling well lately, and you'd be suffering along!" a lieutenant colonel of the People's Armed Police said to a senior colonel.
"You don't need to worry about my problems. You should take care of yourself first! This ambush target is an armed drug trafficking group in Wanbei. They are very ruthless, so we can't be careless!" The colonel coughed twice and said.
"Oh, Chief of Staff, don't worry! We will definitely complete the mission well! We won't give the Special Operations Brigade a chance to participate!" the lieutenant colonel said.
"Hehe, if you can really handle it and prevent the special operations brigade from getting involved, I will definitely recommend you for commendation!" the colonel said.
"Just you wait and see!" the lieutenant colonel said, patting his chest.
"Ring ring!" Just then, the phone on the table rang.
"Hello, this is Li Kuiyong!" the colonel said in a calm tone.
"Kuiyong, this is Zhao Weidong! How's it going on your end? Has the battle started?" Weidong's voice came through the phone.
"Commander Zhao, don't worry! I've arranged a company of soldiers here, and I'm here myself! We'll definitely wipe out this group of armed drug traffickers!" Li Kuiyong said with a smile.
