Urban Super Soldier King

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1046: The Allure of Wealth

Xiang Yu told Gao Zhitao to have someone keep an eye on Li Kui, but Gao Zhitao clearly didn’t pay it much attention.

Xiang Yu understood Gao Zhitao’s mindset. Although he has reached the level of director and is considered a person of power and influence, in terms of social perception and human judgment, he is still inferior to Xiang Yu.

Currently, Gao Zhitao has delegated the police command to Li Kui. He understands that Li Kui wants to earn merit, so he didn’t suspect any ulterior motives from Li Kui.

After returning from there, Xiang Yu called Han Rumei and asked her to closely monitor Li Kui.

To him, Li Kui was not someone good. This time he wanted power, he definitely had other motives.

Xiang Yu sat quietly in his hotel office, contemplating the process of meeting with Li Kui, including his facial expressions.

Li Kui said he had grasped the terrorists’ movements. He must have had a basis for saying this. If he wasn’t bluffing, then someone must have informed him of this news.

Who could it be? The Falcon Organization is a mysterious group. Ordinary people wouldn’t know their movements unless they were insiders.

If it truly was an insider, that could only mean Li Kui had connections with the Falcon Organization.

This thought became increasingly clear in Xiang Yu’s mind. In the end, he made another call to Han Rumei, stressing again the need to keep a close watch on Han Rumei.

Han Rumei understood the seriousness of the issue and acknowledged before hanging up.

The city was quite tense, even the ordinary citizens could feel it. Police cars were everywhere on the roads, and soldiers were also stationed.

The city’s development was severely hindered, and tourists who wanted to visit here obviously sensed it and left in droves. noveldrama

The entire city seemed enveloped in a terrifying atmosphere, drawing the serious discontent of the higher authorities.

Especially Qi Shengli, who was in charge of economics. If the economy was hindered, it would affect his political achievements, which was absolutely unacceptable.

"Li Kui, what the hell are you doing? Did I transfer you there to mess things up?" Qi Shengli roared over the phone.

Li Kui was Qi Shengli’s man, and his position as director was due to Qi Shengli’s influence.

Initially, Qi Shengli planned for him to stabilize the city’s environment after his transfer. He never expected that not only did the situation not stabilize, but it also intensified.

"Secretary Qi, don’t worry, let me explain slowly..."

Before Li Kui could finish, Qi Shengli, already agitated, shouted, "Explain what? Quickly withdraw the police back to the station. What kind of mess is this?"

Qi Shengli could see on his way to work that there were police everywhere on the roads, as if a major enemy was present.

"Secretary Qi, the issue is quite complicated," Li Kui organized his thoughts and said, "There indeed are destabilizing factors in the city recently. Withdrawing the police could cause panic."

Qi Shengli was not responsible for security, so he didn’t care about these details. He slammed the table and said, "I don’t care about that. You have one day, withdraw them quickly, or else I’ll remove you."

Qi Shengli, finishing his words, angrily hung up the phone. He originally thought after transferring Li Kui there, the situation would be under his command. Unexpectedly, Li Kui was brushing him off, making him furious.

Li Kui was stunned for quite a while holding the phone. The command was currently in his hands, but if he withdrew them, Gao Zhitao would surely be enraged, and would easily reclaim the command.

However, now Qi Shengli was also giving orders to withdraw them quickly. This made him restless, causing his psyche to become twisted.

This feeling of being at someone’s command was surely unpleasant. Everyone yearns for freedom, it’s just buried in the heart and not shown.

Li Kui paced back and forth in his office, thinking about how to handle this matter.

If he didn’t withdraw them, Qi Shengli would undoubtedly be furious, taking out his anger on him, and he’d lose his backing.

If he did withdraw them, Gao Zhitao would definitely disagree and strip him of his command.

The terrorists were set to act at noon tomorrow. This was an opportunity for him.

After thinking it over, he finally decided to first stabilize Qi Shengli.

Li Kui drove straight to the bank. Currently, he had tens of millions in his account, and spending some money was nothing to him.

He withdrew fifty thousand from the bank and headed straight to Qi Shengli’s office.

When he arrived at Qi Shengli’s office, Qi Shengli was furious, and upon seeing Li Kui, he started lambasting him.

Li Kui didn’t dare to speak, simply admitting his faults.

"Secretary Qi, give me two more days, and I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory answer," Li Kui said with a smile.

Qi Shengli was about to lose his temper again when Li Kui took something wrapped in newspaper from his small bag and placed it on the sofa.

Qi Shengli, being astute, already knew what was going on when he saw Li Kui’s action.

He looked at Li Kui seriously and said, "Director Li, it’s not that I’m not lenient, but this indeed affects the city’s economy and the people’s lives. How about this, I’ll give you three more days. After three days, it must be well done."

Upon hearing this, Li Kui quickly nodded, "Secretary Qi, rest assured, it won’t even take three days. I’ll give you a satisfactory answer."

Seeing that the matter was settled, Li Kui stood up and left. Upon leaving Qi Shengli’s office, his face showed disdain.

A mere fifty thousand made Qi Shengli change his tune. The power of money is indeed significant.

Now, with tens of millions in his account, he was almost like a magician, and this thought excited him.

After Li Kui left, Qi Shengli quickly got up, went to the sofa, picked up the newspaper-wrapped item, and knew it was fifty thousand.

Everyone loves money, and he was no exception. He hurriedly took the key, opened the safe, and put the money inside.

Looking at the growing amount of money in the safe, Qi Shengli felt a sense of accomplishment. As long as he accumulates ten more thousand, it’ll be a million, ready to be stored.

While Li Kui was driving back to his office, his phone rang.

"Director Li, do you have confidence for tomorrow?" the person asked.

Li Kui had a deep impression of this voice. Although he had only spoken to them once, it was unforgettable.

"Don’t worry, as long as you prepare the money, everything will be fine," Li Kui said confidently.

"Alright, we’ll be waiting for your good news tomorrow," the person said and hung up.

Li Kui sneered, tossed the phone aside, and drove back to his office...
