Yang Tiancheng's words immediately alerted Zhou Xuan to another problem. Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, ten women swarmed around him, chattering incessantly with questions.
Zhou Xuan couldn't handle it, so he quickly pulled Gao Mingyuan to his side. "This guy is a complete lecher. He showed no mercy and immediately grabbed two women and started teasing them." This relieved the pressure on Zhou Xuan.
Yang Tiancheng chuckled and said, "Brother Zhou, please come into the hall and have a seat. Excuse me for a moment." Zhou Bin nodded. Yang Tiancheng instructed his men to entertain them and then went into the hall. Zhou Xuan's supernatural ability detected that Yang Tiancheng had gone to the drug storage room at the back, where the drug dealer was still waiting. This made Zhou Xuan excited again. He followed the women and Gao Mingyuan into the hall and sat down on the sofa. He then carefully observed the conversation between Yang Tiancheng and the drug dealer.
After Yang Tiancheng secretly saw Zhou Xuan's number, he was shocked to discover that the number Zhou Xuan dialed was actually one of his drug dealers. After sending Zhou Xuan to the hall, he hurried to the back room to meet the drug dealer's subordinate.
"Mr. Yang, you've arrived!" The drug dealer stood up respectfully to greet Yang Tiancheng as he entered.
Yang Tiancheng waved his hand, gesturing for him to sit down, and then asked, "Have you contacted the buyers from Beijing?"
"No," the man replied quickly. "I turned off my phone that day. He called again the next day, but I didn't answer. Then I turned off my phone again. He called again today. I'm still testing him." "But from what I understand, this person is a genuine tycoon. What makes us suspicious is that he's a real tycoon. With his wealth, it's not worth it for him to be involved in drug trafficking. So I have some doubts and haven't contacted him!"
Yang Tiancheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "I do know this person. There shouldn't be any problem. Besides, he's addicted to drugs, so I don't think it'll be a big issue. But it's good that you're being cautious. You don't need to worry about this matter; leave it to me. Focus on other leads!"
The man nodded, then got up to say goodbye and left, leaving Yang Tiancheng lost in thought.
At this point, Zhou Xuan was certain that Yang Tiancheng was indeed the drug dealer's boss and a major drug dealer. Moreover, this storage room contained not only a large quantity of drugs but also firearms and ammunition. Zhou Xuan hesitated, wondering whether he should take them down now and hand them over to the police.
It's pretty much confirmed that the main culprit and the drug dealer's supplier that Fu Yuanshan is investigating are also there. Other leads can be found by finding a breakthrough with Yang Tiancheng. Zhou Xuan is also absolutely confident that he can take down Yang Tiancheng and his gang without any problems. He just hasn't notified Fu Yuanshan yet. At this level, it's time to notify him.
Zhou Xuan ultimately decided to report to Fu Yuanshan before making a decision. It was an internal matter for the police. No, if he took action now, it would definitely alert the police, and they might even try to steal credit from the Beijing police. He decided to wait for Fu Yuanshan's arrangements. Only by maximizing Fu Yuanshan's interests would he be satisfied.
Moreover, the action plan wouldn't be simple, because if the police found out, it would be very troublesome, because Yang Tiancheng is a well-known foreign-invested entrepreneur in the province, and has close ties with high-ranking officials at all levels in the province and city. "If we just call the police, I'm afraid it will leak out and fail to achieve the desired effect. It might even backfire on Yang Tiancheng. If we make arrangements, once we alert him and he moves the evidence, it will be very difficult." Zhou Xuan felt a headache just thinking about these things. He didn't want to think about anything too complicated.
Yang Tiancheng pondered for a while before coming out again. Once back in the hall, a smile returned to his face. "Brother Zhou, I see you're rather idle. Is there anything you'd like to do? It'd be good to find something to do..."
Zhou Xuan, of course, understood that what he was talking about wasn't work, but something else to make money. He smiled and said, "Okay. I don't like complicated things; I prefer to be straightforward and simple. I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. I came here firstly to purchase rough jade stones, and secondly to take care of some personal matters. The rough stones have already been loaded onto trucks and transported back to the capital, so there's nothing else to do. I usually enjoy some entertainment, like participating in gambling games with friends..."
Upon hearing Zhou Xuan mention his fondness for gambling, Yang Tiancheng immediately exclaimed with delight, "Since Brother Zhou enjoys this hobby, I can lend you a hand. How about this, I'll arrange a gambling session tomorrow, with all the big spenders being extremely wealthy. If you can win, you can take away a large sum of cash..."
Yang Tiancheng paused for a moment, then said, "How about this, Brother Zhou, I'll pay. If we win, we'll split the winnings fifty-fifty. What do you think, Brother Zhou?"
Zhou Xuan feigned delight and said, "Great! I usually enjoy gambling, especially high-stakes gambling, it's so exciting!"
Yang Tiancheng never expected that the difficult task he had been thinking about for so long would be accomplished so easily without much effort. All he had to pay was a piece of ornamental stone that was of little use. How could he not be happy? He thought to himself that he should quickly notify the wealthy people he had gambled with before and have them come to the big gambling game tomorrow. As long as he won a lot of money the first time and split it with Zhou Xuan, he wouldn't have to worry about future cooperation.
The matter was accomplished easily, but Yang Tiancheng became somewhat worried. He thought to himself, "I shouldn't have been so reckless as to give Zhou Xuan the drug injection. If Zhou Xuan finds out, he might become suspicious, and things could easily backfire!"
But what's done is done, and there's no going back.
Zhou Xuan's face was full of joy. He stood up and said, "Brother Yang, then I'll take my leave. Let me know when you're ready!"
The word "Brother Yang" made Yang Tiancheng feel a surge of heat in his heart. It seemed that Zhou Xuan had a very good impression of him, which made Yang Tiancheng really regret his act of secretly poisoning him!

Zhou Xuan was about to leave, and Gao Mingyuan stared at the ten alluring women with some reluctance. However, he was already in a mess. If he didn't leave, they might have gotten what they wanted right there at Yang Tiancheng's villa. But if he left, it would be a complete waste.
Yang Tiancheng was an expert at observing people's thoughts. He could easily see through Gao Mingyuan's obvious expression. Knowing that Zhou Xuan was close to Gao Mingyuan, he chuckled and said, "Qiqi, since you wanted to go with Manager Gao and Mr. Zhou, you can go together now. All the expenses are on me!"
When he said "all expenses," he was naturally referring to the extra cash he gave them for accompanying Zhou Xuan and Gao Mingyuan. The women understood this perfectly, and they all gathered around Zhou Xuan with smiles on their faces.
Zhou Xuan looked at the disappointed Gao Mingyuan and laughed, "You guys go with Manager Gao, Lao Gao, have fun. I have other things to do, so I won't keep you company today. Let's do it together next time!"
Zhou Xuan immediately refused the women's offer to follow him, and then casually pushed them onto Gao Mingyuan. Gao Mingyuan was overjoyed, put his arm around one of them, and started teasing them with a smile.
Zhou Xuan then said to Yang Tiancheng, "Brother Yang, then I'll trouble you to send a driver to take me to the hotel. Manager Gao is going back with a few beautiful ladies, so I won't go with him."
Yang Tiancheng immediately arranged for two bodyguards to take Zhou Kouxuan back. There was a stone in the trunk, and it would take two people to carry it. He couldn't let Zhou Xuan do it himself. After thinking for a moment, he had the bodyguards find a suitcase and put the stone in it. That would look much better.
If we were to return the wine, it would be quite a sight to see three grown men carrying a stone. Packing it in a suitcase would avoid all that inconvenience.
Gao Mingyuan was truly grateful for Zhou Xuan's kindness. Although he didn't want it himself, he didn't ruin his plans. He put his arms around the two women and got into the car, then drove away. After teasing them for so long, he couldn't resist the temptation anymore.
Zhou Xuan smiled and shook his head, then got into the Mercedes-Benz driven by Yang Tiancheng's bodyguard and waved to Yang Tiancheng through the car window.
Yang Tiancheng was very happy. While waving Zhou Xuan away, he casually wiggled the woman's buttocks a few times to vent his good mood.
The two cars drove onto the highway one after the other, and after entering the city, they each headed in a different direction: Gao Mingyuan went to his residence, and Zhou Xuan's car went to the hotel.
After the two bodyguards drove the car to the hotel entrance, they helped Zhou Xuan carry the suitcase to the hotel room before respectfully saying goodbye and leaving.
Zhou Xuan sat on the sofa and rested for a while. Then he used his special ability to detect that no one was following or monitoring him before picking up his phone and calling Fu Yuanshan.
As soon as the call connected, Fu Yuanshan's slightly excited voice came through the receiver: "Brother, any progress?"
They had an agreement beforehand: to ensure Zhou Xuan wouldn't be discovered, they wouldn't call him without finding concrete evidence. Now that Zhou Xuan had called him, it was clear he had some extraordinary evidence.
Zhou Xuan chuckled and said, "Brother, it really was luck. After I got here, I tried calling that drug dealer, but most of the time his phone was off. Occasionally, I'd get through, but he wouldn't answer, so I just had to wait. When I had nothing to do, I'd go gambling on stones. I met a big spender at the stone quarry, and then I helped him win a lot of money at the casino. That guy probably got interested and wanted me to work for him. He even secretly drugged me and injected me with drugs. In a secret room in his villa, I found a large quantity of drugs. But at that time, I wasn't sure if he was the drug supplier we were looking for, so I didn't call you."
Fu Yuanshan was surprised by how simply Zhou Xuan explained it. Zhou Xuan said that drug dealers had drugged and injected him, which was a common practice among drug dealers. Fu Yuanshan asked worriedly, "Brother, you...you..."
Zhou Xuan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, brother, I'm perfectly fine. I won't let him get me. When I called that drug dealer's supplier for the second time today from his villa, I discovered that the drug dealer was inside. Now the evidence is conclusive, and I also know the secret location where he hides drugs and guns in his villa. It's just that this person has a very large network of influence in this city, and even in this province..."
Fu Yuanshan was an experienced veteran police officer, and he understood these things without Zhou Xuan explaining them. He immediately instructed, "Brother, I'll fly over with men right away today. Before I arrive, don't take any action or contact the local police. People like this can't possibly be without connections to corrupt officials in the area. If we're not careful, we'll leak information and alert them. If they move the evidence, all our efforts will be wasted!"
"Okay, I understand. I'll wait for you to come over so we can discuss and decide!"
Zhou Xuan wasn't interested in such a complicated action plan; all he needed to do was help Fu Yuanshan get the evidence. With the evidence, Fu Yuanshan would be much easier to deal with.
After hanging up his phone, Zhou Xuan carefully recalled and sorted out the events of the past few days. He hadn't expected what happened today. He had dialed that number a second time by accident, and unexpectedly, the drug dealer happened to be in Yang Tiancheng's villa. He managed to sort out all the clues at once, which was incredibly lucky.
However, Yang Tiancheng's influence and connections are extraordinary, so we must not let the news leak out. Otherwise, if Yang Tiancheng moves the drugs, who knows where he will hide them? Without evidence, what use is it even if he knows?
Around 5 p.m., Fu Yuanshan and his eleven-person group arrived by plane. To avoid attracting attention, they came to the hotel in three groups. Fu Yuanshan deliberately booked a room next to Zhou Xuan's. After several plainclothes subordinates checked and found no suspicious persons under surveillance, Fu Yuanshan knocked on Zhou Xuan's door.
Zhou Xuan didn't need to go out to detect that it was Fu Yuanshan outside the door. He quickly got up and opened the door. As soon as Fu Yuanshan entered, he put his finger to his lips to make a shushing gesture. Several subordinates came in one after another. After closing the door, two of them took out instruments and tools and probed around the room.
