Chapter 318: Chapter 191: The Ambitious Little Uncle

Uncle Zhao Guozhong’s injury isn’t too serious, just some superficial soft tissue bruises, mainly a swollen face with a bruise.

In the end, the other party didn’t go too far with it.

After all, it’s a society ruled by law now; even if they act tough and aggressive, there isn’t much market for it anymore.

Chen Feng went to the hospital, took a look at Uncle’s injuries, and asked directly: "Did you report it to the police?"

"Of course I did." Zhao Guozhong grinned, saying with a laugh.

"What did the police say?" Chen Feng asked again.

Zhao Guozhong chuckled: "Don’t worry. Three of them have already been detained. The issue now is how to sentence them heavily; that part is up to you."

Upon hearing this and seeing his expression, Chen Feng realized that his uncle probably got himself beaten up deliberately, intentionally trapping those non-local guys.

This tactic isn’t exactly presentable, but Chen Feng knows he’s doing it for money, to capture the car wash market.

Besides, competitors are like enemies. Even if his side wants to compete with them fairly, they might not be willing.

Though Zhao Guozhong’s tactics are somewhat ruthless, he’s aiming to directly throw these guys into jail.

"Tell me exactly what happened."

Under Chen Feng’s request, Zhao Guozhong started proudly recounting his scheme of provoking and trapping.

Actually, Chen Feng didn’t need to ask; he would have talked about it anyway. In his opinion, the plan was executed perfectly.

There were only Chen Feng, Zhao Xiaolan, and Chen Dayong in the ward, so Zhao Guozhong spoke without any reservations, full of enthusiasm and his pride showing clearly.

The event’s process is quite simple. Zhao Guozhong first went up to their place, introduced himself, and started provoking them verbally, telling them to close down and leave before he gets nasty.

The other party was obviously pissed, but they didn’t immediately attack him.

So, Zhao Guozhong arrogantly suggested meeting at a restaurant this afternoon, the same place Ai Ba took him for negotiation last time, one of the fancier spots in their town.

Most importantly, Zhao Guozhong knows the restaurant owner, and each private room there has surveillance cameras. He had made arrangements before inviting them.

They agreed on noon. All six of them were punctual, and Zhao Guozhong deliberately arrived more than half an hour late, showing up just as they were about to leave in anger, and he even came alone, making it quite daring.

Then it was a series of Zhao Guozhong’s arrogance, threats, and provocations, which eventually led one to lose patience and come forward to attack him.

To make it convincing, and to further provocation, Zhao Guozhong stubbornly fought back, slapped one of them, and verbally insulted all six, challenging the entire group.

Though five of them hadn’t made a move yet, Zhao Guozhong’s words were too offensive, so two more couldn’t hold back and joined in beating him.

Thankfully, the remaining three were calm enough to pull their companions away, dropped a few harsh words towards Zhao Guozhong lying on the ground, and then left proudly.

As soon as they left, the bruised and swollen Zhao Guozhong promptly called the police and also got the surveillance footage from the restaurant, making the evidence irrefutable.

When the police arrived, based on the footage, they arrested the three who attacked him.

Although the method is quite simple, it’s very effective, and Chen Feng was surprised to see his uncle risking himself like that, which required a lot of courage.

In this matter, his reckless uncle displayed considerable skill, which could be seen as both brave and cunning.

So after hearing his recount, Chen Feng didn’t feel angry but somewhat admired and relieved.

Next to him, Zhao Xiaolan listened to the recount and said sympathetically: "Ah Zhong, is it worth risking so much for a car wash?"

"Sister, a car wash is a good business with no losses. I finally have my own business, so I must work hard. I’m not young anymore; if I don’t try while I still can, I’ll really be a waste." Zhao Guozhong smiled brightly despite his bruised face.

Zhao Xiaolan complained: "If you had this awareness earlier, you wouldn’t be in this situation now."

Chen Feng interjected: "It’s not too late for Uncle to realize now. Although Uncle took some risks this time, the outcome isn’t too bad."

Hearing his nephew’s affirmation, Zhao Guozhong’s smile grew even brighter, as if he was a student receiving praise from a teacher.

"Ah Feng, next, it’s up to you. I can’t have taken this beating for nothing; we must shut down their shop and take over their business."

Chen Feng was a bit speechless inside, but seeing his bruised face, he didn’t say more; he just nodded toward him.

Since there’s already animosity between the parties, there’s no need to hold back. Even though his uncle started the provocation, with different stances and interests at stake, Chen Feng surely sides with his uncle.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng told Zhao Guozhong: "I’ll make a phone call."

After saying this, Chen Feng left the ward.

He walked down the corridor, reached the fire escape, and first called Fang Xiaoyue, generally telling her about starting an auto detailing shop together with his uncle in Yuelou Town and about his uncle getting beaten, asking her to report the car wash’s environmental pollution issue, preferably inspect and close it this afternoon.

Fang Xiaoyue owed Chen Feng a big favor for a long time, and since it was a small thing to her, she readily agreed, and also inquired about his uncle’s injury with concern. Upon hearing that it wasn’t serious, she offered to visit the hospital, but Chen Feng repeatedly said it wasn’t necessary, leaving her a bit upset.

After hanging up with Fang Xiaoyue, Chen Feng called Qin Zhen.

This guy was very busy this New Year. When he contacted him yesterday, he was still at a relative’s drinking session. During the holidays, he basically had gatherings and social events every day, and he had his girlfriend with him, leaving no time to meet Chen Feng alone.

"Where are you?"

As soon as the call connected, Chen Feng asked directly. Judging by the background noise, it was a bit noisy.

"At a restaurant. A few fellow soldiers from the same province found me, so I have to host them."

"Mr. Qin, you’re really busy." Chen Feng couldn’t help but tease. Though, to be fair, this guy had foresight. When he first returned from Xiu Zhou, he met with him in advance, probably anticipating this situation.

"No choice." Qin Zhen said helplessly, "Social events are inescapable. I have at least one drinking session every day these days, sometimes two or three a day, and I’m almost at my limit. Next year, no, this year, I’m not going home for New Year, even if it kills me."
