Chapter 1726 Three Tea Plants

They invited Liu Fusheng to the inner room, and Shi Xingyu stood at the door, ostensibly to solicit business, but actually in charge of vigilance.

Liu Fusheng said: "Brother Zhang's disguise technique can be described as a head replacement. I really can't see any flaws."

Zhang Maocai said: "Technology is constantly improving. As long as you are willing to spend money, many things can be easily done, whether it is a permanent facelift or a temporary facelift."

After a pause, he continued, "Shi Xingyu and I arrived in Chaojiang City a while ago, but we haven't found out who is in a hurry to find a locksmith."

While speaking, Zhang Maocai skillfully made a cup of Gongfu tea for Liu Fusheng, which looked similar to the tea made by the locals in Chaojiang.

Liu Fusheng gave a thumbs up and praised Zhang Maocai's grasp of details: "I didn't expect that the person who stole the safe would go to the hardware market to look for a locksmith."

"I have arranged for someone to hold an anti-theft door and lock expo. At that time, someone will bring out advanced safes and hold a lock picking competition. Brother Zhang can go over and show off his real skills."

Zhang Maocai smiled and said, "Okay, I just hope your safe is not too simple, otherwise those people will not be fooled so easily. If you need it, I can provide a safe."

Liu Fusheng said, "No need, let them do their work. I came here just to see Brother Zhang and learn about your identity. We should try to have as little contact as possible in the future to avoid suspicion from those who have ulterior motives."

Zhang Maocai asked curiously, "Do you need to be so cautious? Don't you trust the people around you?"

Liu Fusheng sighed, "Yes, there are many links in what happened in Chaojiang, and I can't figure it out, unless someone inside is playing tricks... But these are all minor problems. I will be more careful and can handle them."

Zhang Maocai said: "At the social level, if there is anything you need help with, just tell me. We also have a branch in eastern Guangdong Province. We deal with all aspects and have extensive social connections."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "I do have something that Brother Zhang might be able to help with. Do you know Mingyue Tower?"

Zhang Maocai said, "Yes, it's a famous place. Sino-Ocean International is a big company and has some financial dealings with the Lu Group. Hai Changchun once invited me to sit in Mingyue Tower, but I have no interest in such places, so I declined."

Liu Fusheng said, "Unfortunately, Chairman Hai didn't like me. He thought I was an outsider who had no real power as the municipal party secretary. He didn't even bother to meet me, let alone invite me to Mingyue Tower. I wonder if Brother Zhang has any way to learn about the situation in Mingyue Tower?"

Zhang Maocai thought, "I can send people to Chaojiang City for inspection and say hello to Hai Changchun in advance. He should host a banquet for us, and the probability of us going to Mingyue Tower for a visit is also very high. I will ask those people to bring pinhole cameras to take some photos of the interior of Mingyue Tower for reference by Secretary Liu."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhang. If possible, have your people talk to Du Shan and see how she is doing."

Zhang Maocai asked: "Who is Du Shan?"

Liu Fusheng said: "She is a popular female star. I met her once."

Zhang Maocai had no interest in movie stars. He just nodded and said, "Okay, leave this to me... Um, how is Officer Sun doing recently?"

Liu Fusheng saw the expectation in Zhang Maocai's eyes, smiled and said, "I just met Officer Sun yesterday. She is still the same. She has been busy with work recently, so it is not convenient for you to meet now."

Zhang Maocai nodded: "I understand, just let her know that I have been helping her."

When Liu Fusheng heard this, he sighed inwardly, it is true that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and there is always something better than anything else.

Zhang Maocai is rich enough to rival a country, but he cannot escape the temptation of beauty. Unfortunately, the flower is interested but the water is merciless, and Sun Jing is only interested in dead people.

After chatting for a while, Liu Fusheng stood up to say goodbye. When he reached the door, he said to Shi Xingyu: "Brother Shi, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders. You must be more careful."

Shi Xingyu smiled and said, "Secretary Liu, please rest assured. I have been exercising intensively for the past two years. I am in better shape than when I was a police officer. I also have enough equipment."

Upon hearing this, Liu Fusheng did not say anything else, but turned around and left, driving to Zhao's house in Jiyang City.

He was very interested in Zhao Qiuwei, and now he was meeting him alone to test the other party's attitude.

On the way, Liu Fusheng called Ma Ming who was far away in Fengtian and asked, "Are you still in touch with Du Shan?"

Ma Ming was stunned when he heard this: "Why? Secretary Liu is going to chase stars after arriving in the south?"

Liu Fusheng said, "I have something important to discuss with her."

Ma Ming smiled and said, "I was just joking. I felt that Du Shan made me lose face that time, so I ignored her afterwards. Fang Xiaohui seems to have maintained a close relationship with Du Shan. I also heard that she got a few roles because she was able to curry favor with Du Shan and took advantage of her popularity. She is now a little famous... Fang Xiaohui advertised that Du Shan is her best friend. How about I ask her for you?"

Liu Fusheng said, "Okay, don't reveal that it was me who wanted to ask, just say that you are interested in knowing Du Shan's current situation."

Ma Ming chuckled and said, "Don't worry, how could I possibly discredit the great and glorious Secretary Liu?"

Liu Fusheng said nothing more and hung up the phone.

……

The car soon drove into Jiyang City.

The urban construction environment and appearance of Jiyang City are somewhat backward than those of Chaojiang and Jiangtou, and there are not many high-rise buildings in the urban area.

Because Jiyang is not near the sea and there are many mountains around it, it has natural disadvantages in terms of transportation convenience and land.

After Zhou Xiaozhe looked up the information, he said to Liu Fusheng: "Secretary, the Zhao clan is quite interesting. Their surname is Zhao, but their village is called Song Village, which seems to imply that their ancestors are from the branch of Emperor Taizu of Song, Zhao Kuangyin."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Your explanation does make sense. Perhaps most people would think so when they hear that the Zhao clan's location is called Song Village. In fact, they called it this name because of the three tea plants."

Zhou Xiaozhe didn't know much about this, so he asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

Liu Fusheng said: "People in Chaoshan like to drink Gongfu tea the most. Among all Gongfu teas, the locals like Fenghuang Dancong the most. Among Fenghuang Dancong, the oldest tea is the Song variety, which has a history of nearly a thousand years, on Wudong Mountain."

Zhou Xiaozhe's face showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

Liu Fusheng said: "The Zhao family of Jiyang was the guardian of these three Song-type tea trees a long time ago. One of them withered more than 80 years ago. Among the existing tea trees, there is one called Dongfanghong, which was specially made for the great man to drink. The Zhao family of Jiyang was praised by the great man himself. Now you understand their importance, right?"
