Xu Tiantian was stunned. Liu Meilan didn't even look at her and just left.

I couldn't help but blush with anger.

Xu Tiantian whispered, "Yuxin, no wonder you hate Liu Meilan so much, you are so arrogant."

Liu Yuxin sighed, "Liu Meilan is very good at pleasing the elders, but as for me, she said she doesn't care, but she hates me to the core. You are my good friend, how could she like you?"

Xu Tiantian's eyes gradually turned cold. "Yuxin, Liu Meilan is so arrogant, she will not have a good ending in the future. Don't worry, take steady steps, and get into college. Your future will be much better than her, a fisherwoman who only knows how to fish."

"That's not necessarily true. I heard that Liu Meilan can make a lot of money when she goes out to sea." Liu Yuxin used to be confident, but now she often eavesdrops on conversations between her adoptive mother and second brother.

Xu Tiantian was curious, "How much is a lot of money?"

"In the past, when we had only one ship, we could earn hundreds of thousands of dollars for each voyage. Now we have two ships and earn millions of dollars," Liu Yuxin envied. "After we graduate from university, we may have decent jobs, but it's far inferior to doing business."

"Ah?" Xu Tiantian exclaimed, "How much? Over a million at a time?"

Liu Yuxin nodded, "That's all. Well, now that I think about it, going to school is pretty boring. I'm not as good as the fishermen."

Xu Tiantian was shocked, but she quickly reacted, "Liu Meilan must have hired a master, otherwise she wouldn't be able to make so much money. After all, there are so many fishermen, if they all make so much money, how could such a good thing be given to these peasants?"

Liu Yuxin was stunned. "That's true. I can't envy you. I've been on a fishing boat. It's dirty and smelly. Even if you make money, I only envy you for making money, not for that kind of filthy life."

"When you marry a rich and powerful man in the future, money will come to you automatically. We don't envy this money." Xu Tiantian's eyes turned slightly, "By the way, what is your second brother busy with recently? I haven't seen him for a long time."

Liu Yuxin replied: "He is planning to open an entertainment and cultural company recently to train singers and dancers. My family members don't agree with it, but my second brother thinks it's a good opportunity."

"Celebrity? Can I be on TV?" Xu Tiantian's eyes lit up.

Liu Yuxin scratched her head. "I'm not sure either. Not to mention you, even I haven't seen my second brother for a long time. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go eat. We have evening self-study later."

"Okay!" Xu Tiantian nodded, "Yuxin, my mother didn't give me any living expenses, can you treat me to a meal? When I make money in the future, I will treat you to a meal every day."

"Okay!" Although Liu Yuxin was a little reluctant, she also knew that Xu Tiantian usually gave her advice and she couldn't treat Xu Tiantian unfairly.

Fortunately, her adoptive mother gave her a lot of pocket money, and her biological parents also gave her a lot of money, so she had no shortage of money to spend.

Tang Xiaoyu was holding Liu Meilan's arm. She looked back secretly with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

"Meilan, the girl next to Liu Yuxin has bad intentions. You should be careful when you see her next time." Tang Xiaoyu reminded Liu Meilan in a low voice.

Liu Meilan smiled, "I ignored her just now, and I will ignore her in the future."

"Just ignore her." Tang Xiaoyu said with a smile, "Liu Yuxin hasn't come over yet, but she pulled Liu Yuxin over to show how capable she is. People like this are best at making up stories and stirring up trouble. Their eyes aren't big, but they move around very quickly."

Liu Meilan nodded. "To get along well with someone like Liu Yuxin, she either has an ulterior motive or she also has an ulterior motive."

Hearing this, Tang Xiaoyu deeply agreed, "Meilan, you are right to think this way! Sometimes staying away from villains can save you a lot of trouble."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "If I can stay away, I will, but some people are just like those shameless people. In order to achieve their goals, they will do whatever it takes and stick to me."

Tang Xiaoyu agreed, "Yes, there are not many people on Sifang Island, and the interpersonal relationships are relatively simple. They are all related to each other, and they care about face and have a strong sense of morality."

"After arriving in the city, although I was mentally prepared, I was still surprised by the actions of many people. Money and power, black areas, gray areas, locals, outsiders, foreigners, all kinds of people and things are intertwined, and the society that has emerged is really very complicated."

"The resolution of the Fisheries Association's boycott of our Sifang Island seafood has made me realize more clearly that the reason we can do business in Shenzhen is not only because our seafood is good, but also because we have people behind us."

"Those wolves and tigers only dare to cause trouble to us through relatively mild means. They dare not be too rampant, and they cannot withstand our counterattack."

Liu Meilan nodded heavily, "Yes! If I didn't have my family to rely on, I wouldn't come to the dock in Shenzhen even if I bought a big fishing boat."

"Our fishing boats go out to sea for two or three days, three or four days each time, and we can come back! We can sell them for hundreds of thousands each time, and there are many people who are jealous!"

"Why do many fishing boats join the fishery association? Isn't the fundamental reason that one person cannot do it alone, and more people are needed to fight against the evil hands that are stretched out?"

Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "That's indeed the case, so now the Fisheries Association has been ordered to make corrections. Once the corrections are made, they can seek my advice and we shouldn't embarrass them."

"It's already difficult for fishermen to go out to sea to fish, and they have to be coerced by Wang Dahai and his uncle. Many things they do are not what they want to do, but they are forced to do them."

Liu Meilan never thought of killing all the ordinary fishermen. There was no need for that at all.

"Xiao Yu, you decide. We will deal with anyone who offends us or wants to deal with us! We all have to rely on the weather to make a living, and it's not easy for everyone. We can't get too involved."

Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan are still kind-hearted. They fight back directly and are unwilling to implicate others.

"Those buyers were in collusion with Wang Dahai and others before, and now they want to come back to buy our seafood, but I directly rejected them! Mr. Yang and these seven restaurant owners are planning to open high-end restaurants."

"We also sell our seafood to the mid- to high-end market, mainly to these seven bosses, and the rest is sold to others. In short, we don't have to worry about selling our seafood, we can keep it stable ourselves."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Yes, let's do this at this stage!"

"Meilan, have you ever thought about adding more fishing boats?" Tang Xiaoyu asked, "Someone at the dock told me that there are experienced fishermen who want to work on our boats."

Liu Meilan shook her head. "For now, we only have two fishing boats. I can't take care of more! Our company has been developing very fast, and now we need stability."

Although the range of her spiritual awareness increased by 500 meters, it was still at most 1500 meters.

There were too many fishing boats for her to take care of, and she couldn't guarantee that every net would catch fish.

Tang Xiaoyu wrote it down, "It's almost the fishing ban period, we can't go out to sea, the fishing boat we bought is just parked there."

The two of them talked as they walked, and dealt with work matters while they were talking.

At this moment, the pager on Tang Xiaoyu's waist rang.

Tang Xiaoyu found a phone and answered it, "Qin Ming, do you want to talk to me about something?"

Qin Ming smiled and said, "Is there something wrong, Meilan, am I with you?"

"Yes!" Tang Xiaoyu replied, "Meilan, come and answer the phone."

"Me?" Liu Meilan pointed at herself.

"Yes, it's you. It's probably related to the previous case." Tang Xiaoyu whispered, "Come and answer it quickly. The phone bill is very expensive."

Liu Meilan came over and answered the phone, "Qin Ming, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Qin Ming's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Meilan, can you come to the police station? We have something to ask you."

"Okay, but I have to provide meals." Liu Meilan smiled and cooperated with the police.

Qin Ming smiled and said, "Okay, wait for you to come over and understand the situation, then I'll take you and Xiaoyu to dinner."

"Okay!" Liu Meilan agreed and hung up the phone.

Liu Meilan took a taxi, sat in the back with Tang Xiaoyu, and told the taxi the address.

"Criminal Police Team?" The driver was stunned and looked at Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan behind him through the rearview mirror.

"Yes, the city criminal police team." Liu Meilan nodded, "Master, please drive, there are police waiting over there!"

"Okay, I'll drive right away." The driver agreed. "Why are you going to the Criminal Police Team? They handle criminal cases, cases where people die."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "My friend went to see her boyfriend. It has nothing to do with the case."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "Yes, my boyfriend won't be home for a few days, I'm going to see him."

"Oh, so that's how it is!" The driver smiled, "The police are busy at work, so as a target, you should be considerate."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled, "Well, I understand. Just like you usually drive a taxi, it's also very hard."

"It doesn't matter if it's hard work, as long as I can make money." The driver smiled, "My family has bought a house, and my wife and children can live a good life. No matter how late I get home, my wife will cook for me and I can have a warm meal. Although it's hard work, I feel happy."

"Driver, you are so lucky." Liu Meilan complimented, "You are driving people at night. Are you afraid if it is late at night?"

The driver was obviously a talkative person. "If it was in the city, I wouldn't be afraid. After all, there are street lights everywhere, and there are police stations and public security bureaus, as well as many public institutions. If there is danger, I can run over there."

"But if I go out of the city, to the countryside, or to the beach, to be honest, I don't dare to go. It's very chaotic now. You young and beautiful girls should try not to go out at night. I heard that many young and beautiful girls have disappeared recently..."

Hearing this, Liu Meilan was curious, "How could a living person disappear?"

The driver lowered his voice and said, "You also said that a living person would not disappear easily, but if they disappeared, they must have been abducted. I heard that many people disappeared on their own initiative, hoping to make a fortune in Hong Kong Island."

"There is no such thing as a free lunch. If it were so easy to get rich, everyone would be able to make a fortune. Hong Kong Island is rich, but there are many poor people there. What can these girls with only pretty faces do there? Do we still need to guess?"

Liu Meilan was suspicious, "Driver, where did you hear this?"

The driver smiled and said, "We taxi drivers also have our own circle. When it's time to eat or drink beer, we have a fixed place. A group of men, when they are together, it's impossible for them to just drink beer. We always brag, but not all of it. We share what we have encountered."

"Whoever says something new or attractive will be watched and praised by everyone. Even the boss will come over to listen, so we can get all kinds of news. By the way, we also have a taxi radio in the car, and many people share jokes."

Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu looked at each other, and she continued to ask: "Driver, what else did the driver who shared with you the disappearance of the beautiful girl say?"

Seeing Liu Meilan being so nice, the driver looked suspicious and asked, "Are you two policemen? Why are you so curious?"

Liu Meilan waved her hands. "We are not the police. We heard what you just said for the first time, so we are very curious. I heard that there is a reward for providing useful clues to the police, right?"

Liu Meilan nudged Tang Xiaoyu with her elbow.

Tang Xiaoyu nodded and blinked, "Yes, there is a bonus. Even if there is no bonus in the end, there will be a reward."

The driver's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Is this true? Is there really a reward?"

Tang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Of course, the information you provide must be useful. If it is useless, there will be no bonus!"

The driver replied: "I do have a clue to offer!"

Liu Meilan tried to persuade him, "Why don't you come with us? Perhaps the clues you provide will be useful?"

The driver nodded and said, "Okay, no matter if it works or not, we are trying to catch the bad guys anyway, so as citizens we should actively cooperate!"

In this way, the driver followed Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Qin Ming saw a middle-aged man following Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan, and asked in surprise: "Who is this big brother?"

Liu Meilan introduced: "This is the driver. Well, he said he can provide clues about the beautiful girl's disappearance!"

Hearing this, Qin Ming was slightly stunned. "Driver, please take a seat. Do you have any clues?"

The driver replied quietly: "I came here to provide clues, can I keep it confidential? Is there a reward?"

Qin Ming was stunned. "We will protect the people who provide clues and keep it confidential. As for the reward, it depends on whether the clues you provide are useful."

The driver replied, "Let me start by saying that I have a fairly long-term customer, Miss Yu who works at Lan Ya Nightclub. In the past month, she has been going to Mong Kok Fashion Style to get her hair done at 7pm almost every Saturday night."

"Last week, I picked her up and sent her over. Every time I sent her over, she wouldn't let me go. I would get her hair done that night and then send her back. Of course, she didn't let me wait in vain. She paid me."

"If I can get paid just by waiting in the car, of course I am willing to do that. I usually rest in the car. But last week, when I woke up, it was almost twelve o'clock and Miss Yu hadn't come yet. I went to ask, and they said Miss Yu had left."

"But it was Miss Yu who asked me to wait nearby. Even if she had done my hair, she should have woken me up. She had done that before. But it was strange that day. Miss Yu didn't call me. I didn't believe it and wanted to go upstairs to look for it, after all, I hadn't paid yet, but I was stopped and was not allowed to go in."

"Other people said that Miss Yu had something to do and left in a hurry, and there was no one upstairs. I insisted on going in, and looked upstairs and downstairs, and there was indeed no one. I was very angry at the time and felt that Miss Yu was cheating and refused to pay the taxi fare."

"Later, I thought more and more that something was wrong. Miss Yu usually gave money generously, so she wouldn't run away for a little money. This Saturday, I waited for a long time outside the Lan Ya Nightclub, but Miss Yu didn't show up."
