Rebirth as an official

In his previous life, Cao Yaozu was definitely the biggest initiator of why Ang Lee embarked on the path of corruption and crime.

All corrupt officials will inevitably take the path of collusion between officials and businessmen.

Because if you want to convert power into wealth, you need the help of businessmen. Businessmen are tools for corrupt officials to make money. It can be said that a corrupt official who does not collude with businessmen is not a "qualified" corrupt official.

When he first took up the position of chief of the Real Estate Market Supervision Section, Cao Yaozu approached him.

But at that time, Cao Yaozu's company was not called Zhanda Construction Engineering Company but Longteng Real Estate Development Company.

Since getting to know Cao Yaozu, Ang Lee has opened the door for his company. Ang Lee has given the green light to Cao Yaozu in all aspects of the development, including illegal early sales and housing acceptance. Later, housing prices plummeted and a large number of Linjiang properties were unfinished. These They all have something to do with Ang Lee.

This Cao Yaozu used to be a gangster, but later he found a few people to form a construction team and became a contractor.

Step by step, he turned a small construction team into an engineering company and then the largest real estate developer in Linjiang.

His business gradually involves all walks of life in Linjiang. He does any business that makes money, but it is mainly in the construction, catering and entertainment industries.

When Ang Lee was sacked, Cao Yaozu was already worth several billion. He owned four restaurants, three KTVs, two nightclubs and a real estate group, and dominated both black and white in Linjiang City.

But now, Cao Yaozu's power is not that big, there is only one construction engineering company.

"Cao Yaozu is also a well-known local entrepreneur. You can't just meet him if you want to." Wang Xi said that although he had left Linjiang City for two years, he still knew the famous people in the city.

"Otherwise, I can find someone to introduce you through my connections." Wang Xi gave an idea.

"It's too late, we don't have enough time." Li An shook his head and rejected Wang Xi's idea. After thinking about it for a while, he said with a smile: "If it doesn't work to go to him directly, then start with his son."

"Understood, let's tie up his son and force him to pay off the villagers' wages?" Zhou Xing suddenly spoke. He made a fist with one hand and struck the surface of the other hand, as if he suddenly understood.

Everyone turned their heads collectively, but looked at him as if they were looking at an idiot.

Wang Xi's face couldn't help but twitch a few times. You said you were going to kidnap me in front of the police. You respect me.

"Haha, I think the atmosphere is a bit tense. Let's liven up the atmosphere and you continue." Zhou Xing scratched his head.

Song Shaoping couldn't help but roll his eyes at Zhou Xing, not realizing that this guy had the attributes of a husky.

Attention turned back to Li An again, and Song Shaoping asked with interest:

"Lee An, what are you going to do?"

He saw that this young man seemed confident.

"If everyone is not tired, may I invite everyone to go to a nightclub?" Li An did not directly answer Song Shaoping's question, but instead proposed going to a nightclub.

"Nightclub? Linjiang is a small place with such a good place." Xu Kai's eyes lit up,

"This is a good idea!" Zhou Xing jumped up again, obviously very excited.

"You just sleep in the hotel and you are not allowed to go anywhere." Song Shaoping said fiercely while holding back his anger.

Gulou Street is mostly the site of the original woolen mill. However, in the late 90s, due to poor management, this time-honored state-owned enterprise declared bankruptcy.

Li An remembered that a large number of workers were laid off at that time, and many people were hanging around the vegetable market, waiting for the vegetable vendors to throw away the rotten vegetable leaves and take them home.

But now this street has been transformed into a commercial street by the government. The largest factory building of the Woolen Textile Factory was invested and transformed by a foreign businessman last year into Linjiang's first nightclub - Moonlight Bar.

It is now eleven o'clock in the evening, and Li An and others are already standing at the gate of Moonlight Bar.

The appearance of this bar has been transformed into the most popular Baroque style. The exterior is made of beige marble, and several decorative pillars are carved with complex patterns and girly reliefs.

The big words "Moonlight" on the wall glowed cyan under the illumination of spotlights, making it look a bit coquettish.

From time to time, you can see beautifully dressed young ladies with hot figures and heavy makeup walking into the bar.

Seeing the trace of expectation and urgency in Xu Kai's eyes, Li An said to everyone: "Let's go in."

Li An couldn't understand why Xu Kai was so interested in these girls who looked vulgarly dressed because he couldn't find any kind of girl according to his family background.

Tired of the food in big hotels and like the taste of roadside stalls?

As soon as I walked into the nightclub, a wave of sound hit me. It was like two worlds inside and outside the door.

"Ali, Ali..."

What is resounding throughout the nightclub now is Lee Jung-hyun's "Ali Ali". What a nostalgic piece of music. Back then, Lee Jung-hyun's songs were very popular in China.

Li An squinted at everything in front of him, the deafening music, the swaying dance floor, and the colorful lights spinning rapidly, emitting light of varying lengths.

Although Ang Lee's song sounded a bit crude, the adrenaline-soaking sound brought the men and women in the store to climax again and again.

As soon as Li An and the others walked in, a waiter wearing a black shirt, a golden vest, and a small bow tie greeted them.

"Brothers, are you on the stage or in the booths?"

What the waiter said was the small table near the dance floor, with a few high stools around it, which can generally accommodate up to 5 people.

The booths are far away from the dance floor and scattered around the hall. They have large tables and sofas, which are suitable for many people to play together.

"Deck seat." Li An answered first.

"Brother, please come over here." The waiter's eyes lit up when he heard it was a booth. The minimum consumption of the booths is more than 1, so his commission is quite high.

The little brother led Li An and others to a booth on the left side of the hall, then took out the drink list and handed it to Li An, and said respectfully: "Brother, what to drink, we have the minimum consumption with the card... "

"No need to introduce, let's try this one, 18 years old." Li An said directly pointing to the top one on the drink list.

"Okay, okay. Do you want an a la carte or a set meal?" The waiter's eyes almost burst into laughter when he saw that Li An was pointing to Chivas Regal, the most expensive product in their store.

"Get the set meal quickly." Li An waved his finger in an extremely cool manner.

"Okay, brother, please wait a moment." The waiter immediately bowed and left.

Xu Kai was sitting next to Li An and saw the set meal he ordered just now, and couldn't help but said: "Li An, you are rich, order the Chivas Regal set meal for 3999."

"Haha, let's all have fun." Li An swayed slightly to the dynamic music.

Although the other people didn't understand why Li An brought them to the bar in the middle of the night, they didn't have too many objections.

In a moment, the waiter came over with a plate, foreign wine, fruit plate, ice bucket, and five glasses.

The boy's service was very considerate and he opened the bottle of Chivas Regal for them very neatly.

The moment the package was opened, the little brother was secretly happy. As long as the wine is opened, it cannot be returned. Today, the commission for this set meal has been obtained.

He poured the wine into the wine glasses one by one, and then said with a smile: "Brother, please use it slowly, and pay for the set meal."

It is the rule of the nightclub here to pay first, to prevent drunk customers from being unable to pay.

Li An picked up a glass of wine, shook it gently against the dim light, took a look at it, put it down, and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to ask for money, exchange this bottle of wine first."

"Brother, what's wrong?" The younger brother was a little confused.

"This wine of yours is fake, change it to another one." Li An was still smiling.

"Brother, we don't have fake wine here." The little brother felt nervous because he encountered strange customers every day in the store, but he still said politely.

Li An leaned back and put his hands on the back of the sofa, "I said it's fake, it's fake. Let's change it to another bottle."

"You said it was a lie even though you didn't even drink. What do you mean?" The little brother had already put his hand on the microphone of the headset. If something goes wrong, he would call the security guard.

Li An shook his head and said, "I won't say anything more to you. Just call your manager over."

"Okay." The little brother looked a little ugly, turned around and left, picked up the microphone and said something.

"Li An, what are you doing?" Wang Xi frowned.

He has been to "Moonlight" several times and knows that the owner who can open such a store has a very complicated background and is not someone to be trifled with.
