1634, use the sky as the cover and the earth as the bed(1/2)
From Liu Meijiao's words, Gu Chen saw her greed.
Indeed, in the face of various 996 plus involution work pressures, taking out a loan to buy a house became the last straw that overwhelmed me.
At this time, if someone takes the initiative to send money to your door, and also "prescribes the right medicine", it is difficult for anyone not to be tempted.
Liu Meijiao was obviously eaten up by Zhang Xuchang, especially Liu Meijiao's situation at that time. It seemed that as long as the price offered by Zhang Xuchang was high enough, Liu Meijiao could become Zhang Xuchang's undercover agent at any time.
So Gu Chen continued to ask her: "What conditions did Zhang Xuchang give you?"
"He promised to pay me the down payment for the house. No matter how much the house is, no matter how much the down payment is, he is willing to help me pay it."
"This was definitely a very tempting offer at the time, and I almost couldn't refuse."
Liu Meijiao seemed to be looking forward to it when she talked about it.
Lu Weiwei shook her head and said angrily: "There is no pie in the sky. He offers you such conditions, obviously because he wants you to do things for him."
"Yes, you are absolutely right." Liu Meijiao nodded and admitted, telling the truth: "Zhang Xuchang asked me to be an undercover agent for him, lurking next to Zhao Liwen and collecting all information about Zhao Liwen."
"Because I am Zhao Liwen's accountant and assistant, I actually have control over many accounting issues, as well as Zhao Liwen's network resources."
"Later I found out that Zhang Xuchang was eyeing Zhao Liwen's home project in the next two years."
After a pause, Liu Meijiao tried to calm down and explained seriously: "Perhaps you don't know much about these two homestead projects. I can explain them to you in detail."
“This project this year and next will involve two branches of Guiyuan Tianju, and the investment is relatively large. Basically, each project is to rebuild a tourist town, and the operation is also highly commercialized, so more capital investment is needed.
."
"Moreover, this kind of project investment is carried out in two projects at the same time, with capital injection, and Zhao Liwen also signed a gambling agreement with the capital side."
"In this way, with our capital advantage, we can sign contracts with local departments. Our next tourist town will be an upgraded version of Guiyuan Tianju Bed and Breakfast Village, and it will be top-notch in the country."
Taking a deep breath, Liu Meijiao also shook her head: "But Zhang Xuchang also values the potential of this project."
"Because Zhao Liwen had cheated Zhang Xuchang once before, he was forced to give up the 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand he founded."
"Therefore, Zhang Xuchang has always been grudged and wanted to get involved in these two projects. However, he did not have many resources on his end, so he could only obtain the corresponding resources through unfair competition through my undercover."
After Gu Chen heard this, he nodded silently and asked her: "So, you leaked many key secrets of this project to Zhang Xuchang?"
"Yes, it's me, because I used money to do things, especially providing some confidential transactions of Zhao Liwen to Zhang Xuchang. These things are all shady. Only Zhao Liwen, a few core shareholders, and I know these things."
"I know." Gu Chen suddenly remembered that night, Zhang Xuchang came to the Guiyuan Tianju Bed and Breakfast Village to have a showdown with Zhao Liwen, which later aroused Zhao Liwen's murderous intention.
A large part of the reason may be that Zhang Xuchang used these core secrets as bargaining chips to threaten Zhao Liwen into giving in.
Zhao Liwen was forced to have no choice but to confront Zhang Xuchang, which later led to Zhao Liwen poisoning Zhang Xuchang.
All this seems to be traceable.
"So the reason why Zhang Xuchang dared to showdown with Zhao Liwen was because you leaked the secret?" Gu Chen asked.
Liu Meijiao choked up and could only nod silently, and proactively admitted: "Although I don't want to do this, after all, I have to fight for the house."
"Besides, Zhao Liwen used means to snatch away Zhang Xuchang's 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand. Today, Zhang Xuchang wants to invest in the project. It is natural and logical. There is nothing to say."
"And I'm just a hardworking worker. I couldn't refuse this condition, so I revealed all of Zhao Liwen's secrets to Zhang Xuchang, so that Zhang Xuchang would have the upper hand in subsequent negotiations."
Gu Chen recorded Liu Meijiao's original words intact, and asked her out of curiosity: "After the showdown between Zhang Xuchang and Zhao Liwen, does Zhao Liwen know that you revealed these things?"
"I don't know." Liu Meijiao shook her head and said honestly: "Because Zhang Xuchang and Zhao Liwen's partners have many overlaps."
"So Zhao Liwen always thought that it was her partner who betrayed her, and she did not suspect me."
"That's not right." Gu Chen raised his head and thought, still confused: "If you just reveal these business secrets to Zhang Xuchang to get rewards from Zhang Xuchang, there is no need to kill him."
"But you used potassium cyanide to kill Zhang Xuchang. This makes no sense. Why on earth did you kill him?"
Gu Chen also saw that Liu Meijiao was actually acting as a commercial spy in this underground transaction.
Zhang Xuchang provided the money and Liu Meijiao provided the strength to betray Zhao Liwen.
But in the end, it was understandable that Zhao Liwen poisoned Zhang Xuchang. After all, the two had deep grievances, and Zhang Xuchang was aggressive this time, which made Zhao Liwen, who had signed a gambling agreement, feel even more pressure, so she acted excessively.
But Liu Meijiao, who has been an unassuming character from beginning to end, wants to poison Zhang Xuchang, which seems very unreasonable.
Because she knew she was doomed and all the evidence was in the hands of the police, Liu Meijiao did not continue to hold on to her life, but took the initiative to confess:
"At first, I just sold some of Zhao Liwen's business secrets for the down payment of the house. In my opinion, these things only caused Zhao Liwen to lose some business competition."
"But after all, Zhao Liwen's Guiyuan Tianju Bed and Breakfast Village has just signed a gambling agreement and has two major projects ready to start. Logically speaking, it is not difficult to make money as long as you focus on your own business."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But the difficulty is that later Zhang Xuchang became more serious and even asked me to collect illegal evidence about Zhao Liwen."
"Zhang Xuchang's purpose is to send Zhao Liwen to prison to avenge him for taking away his 'Guiyuan Tianju' brand. I can't do that."
"After all, I don't want to do such an unscrupulous thing. I just want to get money and sell some business secrets, so that I can have an explanation for Guiyuantianju and Zhang Xuchang, and Zhao Liwen will not die.
"
"But later when I went to Hongyuanli Community and had a meeting with Zhang Xuchang, I found out that Zhang Xuchang had been plotting to bring down Zhao Liwen."
"The purpose of luring me into the trap was to get me on his pirate ship and be bound to him."
"He forced me to hand over Zhao Liwen's criminal evidence over the years. After all, you also know that business people will have some shameful transactions, especially when the project is advancing, problems are most likely to go wrong, and Zhao Liwen cannot avoid it.
Such a gray error."
After a pause, Liu Meijiao covered her cheek in great pain, and said with grief and anger: "I just want to make some money, I don't want to harm anyone, but Zhang Xuchang insists on forcing me."
"Not only that, he also kept evidence of my collecting money and even audio recordings of my conversations."
"He threatened me that if I didn't agree, he would give these recordings to Zhao Liwen and ask Zhao Liwen to send me to prison."
After sniffing, Liu Meijiao was also frustrated. It seemed that she had fallen into the trap designed by Zhang Xuchang because of greed.
Gu Chen recorded these things and asked: "So, you decided to use potassium cyanide to poison Zhang Xuchang, right?"
"That's right." Liu Meijiao nodded and admitted.
Gu Chen asked again: "Do you know that Zhao Liwen is also planning to use potassium cyanide to poison Zhang Xuchang?"
"I know." Liu Meijiao said everything now, and said without hesitation: "I know that Zhao Liwen has murderous intentions and may use means to murder Zhang Xuchang, but I don't know what means."
"Because I was with Zhao Liwen before, and I often heard her talk about her cousin, whose family died in a car accident. In the end, he became too depressed, got some potassium cyanide in the electroplating factory, and committed suicide by taking poison."
"Furthermore, I listened to Zhao Liwen's explanation in detail, so I also went to the electroplating factory and secretly bought some potassium cyanide with others. I planned to go to Hongyuanli Community again and find a way to poison Zhang Xuchang."
"But later I learned that Zhang Xuchang also made an appointment with Zhao Liwen on the day he asked me to meet. I knew that he was putting pressure on me."
"If Zhang Xuchang's negotiations don't go smoothly, then I will definitely be betrayed by him, and he will betray me without hesitation."
After sniffing, Liu Meijiao said helplessly: "Since he is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust."
"So, as you said, I knew there was going to be a power outage that day because I saw the outage notice."
"This means that the nearby surveillance cameras will stop working. In order not to be discovered, I secretly sneaked into the community from behind the wall, but on the stairs, I heard the conversation between Zhang Xuchang and Zhao Liwen inside the house."
"That's why you're hiding upstairs?" Officer Wang asked.
Liu Meijiao nodded and admitted: "Yes, I can only hide there and wait quietly for Zhao Liwen to leave before entering the house."
"Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to pour potassium cyanide into the water and let Zhang Xuchang drink it without anyone noticing."
"But later I discovered that Zhao Liwen had brought a bottle of Jiangnong juice, and Zhang Xuchang seemed to have also drank two glasses of it."
"So, I took advantage of Zhang Xuchang's short time to go to the toilet and directly mixed the potassium cyanide into the drink and stirred it evenly."
"After that, I coaxed Zhang Xuchang to drink two more drinks."
Taking a deep breath, Liu Meijiao tried her best to calm down, and then said: "I think the time is right, Zhang Xuchang started to react, and I just watched him fall to the ground, and finally died suddenly.
I just left the scene."
"You are too cruel." Lu Weiwei looked at Liu Meijiao in front of her and didn't know how to evaluate her for a moment.
You know, seeing the old man in front of her dying in pain, she had no conscience at all.
Just like when Pan Jinlian poured poison into Wu Dalang to drink.
Fortunately, the truth finally came out. Zhao Liwen indeed wanted to poison Zhang Xuchang, but the potassium cyanide used was a product made two years ago.
Due to expiration, the toxicity has long since disappeared.
Even if expired potassium cyanide was mixed into Jiangnong's drink, it would not poison Zhang Xuchang.
However, Liu Meijiao, who came to finish the job later, acted quickly and ruthlessly. She directly mixed potassium cyanide into the drink, turning the originally non-toxic Jiangnong juice into a bottle of poison in an instant.
Maybe Zhang Xuchang himself never expected that he would suffer another disaster just after he escaped.
But this time, Zhang Xuchang couldn't escape the fate of being poisoned and died suddenly.
It is a pity for everyone to think about it.
…
…
After the Zhang Xuchang poisoning case was dealt with, the Guiyuan Tianju project was officially stopped by the relevant departments due to some problems.
Zhao Liwen and Liu Meijiao, two core figures in the project, were both arrested for poisoning others. Legal sanctions await them.
The workers in the electroplating factory who smuggled potassium cyanide were also arrested by Gu Chen and conducted relevant investigations. In the end, a smuggling industry chain was accidentally involved.
