Inheritance of Two Trillion
Chapter 2599 - 1887: The Evidence Is Here (Part 3)
This idea was even suggested by her, originally meant to leave a mark, so that even if Bai Xiaosheng accidentally saw these marks, he would think favorably of the Yang Family.
Later, Alger contacted Yang Xiaoyun through Lisa, and the two sides hit it off. Then, Alger "introduced" them to Wagg.
The two sides decided to use this small mark to ruin Bai Xiaosheng, at the very least to destroy his reputation, so that even someone like Anlos wouldn’t be able to speak up for Bai Xiaosheng.
The Huaxia side would then have nothing to say.
In this way, the concerns of Mira and Wagg would no longer exist, and they would also use this to get through the crisis, and possibly even gain opportunities.
For the Yang Family, they could take revenge on Bai Xiaosheng and establish a good relationship with the Oshan Business Department, killing two birds with one stone.
This "great opportunity" has now resulted in such a situation.
Dong Tianlu and others watched as Yang Xiaoyun produced "evidence," and their eyes narrowed slightly.
It seems the Yang Family had ill intentions all along!
But fortunately, Bai Xiaosheng’s generosity allowed him to unwittingly avoid a "major crisis."
Bai Xiaosheng shared the gifts from the Yang Family with the members of the business group, and generously allowed everyone to choose a gift each.
At the time, no one thought much of it, because even though all the items were in front of them, for people of their wealth, measured in billions, they were insignificant.
Unexpectedly, this resolved the immediate trouble.
"Mr. Mira, I think it would be wise to search the rooms of Bai Xiaosheng’s two assistants," Yang Xiaoyun suggested to Mira, having already "fired the arrow."
Mira couldn’t help but look at Hou Yuncheng.
Hou Yuncheng, though seemingly allowing them to search Bai Xiaosheng’s room, maintained a sullen expression.
This matter is not something this Huaxia person will easily let go of!
Mira also couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on.
"Fine, go ahead and check! You’ve checked Mr. Bai Xiaosheng’s assistants, if you find nothing, that’s okay, there’s still us, you can check us too!" Dong Tianlu folded his arms and sneered, "You accuse Mr. Bai Xiaosheng, the leader of the business group, of soliciting bribes, but that’s reasonable. But we’re just businessmen; we have nothing to fear because this accusation won’t stick to us!"
With Dong Tianlu’s words, everyone immediately echoed in agreement.
Mira felt bitter at heart.
The original plan was going smoothly, but it only resulted in finding items worth sixty thousand US Dollars, an amount that isn’t substantial enough to clearly distinguish between "gift" and legal violation in Oshan law, making it difficult to convince the public and superiors, making it necessary to investigate Bai Xiaosheng’s entourage, but it shouldn’t be too overboard.
If it implicated the entire Huaxia Business Group, that would be a huge problem...
Mira carefully tried to smile and asked Hou Yuncheng, "What do you think, Mr. Hou..."
"You may investigate, but only among Bai Xiaosheng’s attendants, and don’t mess with their things!"
Having seen Dong Tianlu’s indication, Hou Yuncheng spoke calmly, "However, if nothing is found, Mr. Mira, you owe me an explanation!"
"Otherwise, I’ll have a direct talk with your chieftain!"
Hou Yuncheng was quite angry.
It’s not that the Oshan upper echelons were entirely unaware of this matter, yet they permitted it, likely due to dissatisfaction when the business group temporarily changed their inspection plans.
But now, this matter has exceeded their tolerable limits, and even the higher-ups are preparing to hit back hard.
Therefore, Hou Yuncheng felt justified.
Upon hearing Hou Yuncheng’s words, Mira hurriedly arranged for people to investigate.
As a result, those who went came back empty-handed, not finding a single thing.
Dong Tianlu watched this happen and sneered coldly.
Most of Bai Xiaosheng’s belongings were distributed among the others; even his two closest aides got nothing, proving his openness and making it impossible for them to find anything!
Mira, seeing the result, turned pale.
Hou Yuncheng turned and walked away, his voice trailing, "I hope Mr. Mira and your people can provide us with an explanation soon! Otherwise, you will bear the consequences of this matter."
Feeling embarrassed, Mira chased after Hou Yuncheng, not forgetting to give Yang Xiaoyun an angry glare before leaving.
Yang Xiaoyun, having received Mira’s glare and the resentment from Dong Tianlu and the others, didn’t dare linger even for a moment and quickly left in disgrace.
Those who came to investigate departed like a receding tide.
The journalists also left; coming in high spirits and leaving disappointed could describe their mood, but with Alger’s arrangements, they would embellish the story, portraying the sixty thousand worth of items as "significant amounts."
Dong Tianlu and others watched the others leave, exchanged glances, and returned silently to their accommodations.
That evening, at the Yang Family Ancient Castle, Yang Xiaoyun was scolded harshly by Yang Junluo.
Yang Yishan, who rushed back from out of town, was also furious about this matter.
The difference being, Yang Junluo was aware of it, while Yang Yishan had just found out.
While Yang Xiaoyun was caught between a rock and a hard place, a family member suddenly presented a box, saying it was sent by Dong Tianlu.
Upon opening the box, Yang Xiaoyun was stunned.
Inside were some pieces of porcelain and fragments of paintings, all of which bore a small "Yang" character.
Only he knew what this meant, the "evidence" on those gifts.
The evidence was here, but the investigators were gone...
