Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 737 Better safe than sorry!
Around 8 p.m., as Jia Dongming was watching TV with Lin Qiuyue in the yard, Ye Tian from the Public Security Section suddenly came to Jia Dongming's house. Upon seeing Jia Dongming watching TV, Ye Tian immediately approached him and whispered in his ear, "Chief! I have something important to report to you."

Upon hearing Ye Tian's words, Jia Dongming immediately stood up from his chair, led Ye Tian to a corner of the yard, and asked with a smile, "Ye Tian! You've come to my house at this hour, is it because your section chief is planning to take action against that casino?"

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's question, Ye Tian immediately nodded and respectfully reported to Jia Dongming, "Director! Perhaps because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the number of people gambling at the casino tonight is much higher than usual. Our section chief thinks this is a rare opportunity and plans to raid this casino tonight, so he asked me to come and report to you."

After learning Ye Tian's purpose, Jia Dongming pondered for a moment before instructing Ye Tian, ​​"Ye Tian! I understand. You go back to the factory first, I'll let my family know and then I'll be there right away."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, Ye Tian immediately nodded and then strode towards the gate of the villa.

After Ye Tian left, Jia Dongming quickly walked up to Lin Qiuyue and whispered to her, "Qiuyue! There's something I need to do at the office right away. I probably won't be back until very late tonight. After you finish watching TV, just go straight to your room and go to sleep. You don't need to wait for me to come back."

Lin Qiuyue had also witnessed Ye Tian coming to find Jia Dongming. Upon learning that there was an emergency at the security department, Lin Qiuyue reminded Jia Dongming, "Brother Dongming! Please be careful."

After saying goodbye to Lin Qiuyue, Jia Dongming pushed his bicycle and left the courtyard, riding towards the steel rolling mill.

Soon Jia Dongming arrived at the steel rolling mill's security department. Guo Jianguo and Li Aijun, upon seeing Jia Dongming's arrival, immediately stepped forward and greeted him respectfully.

"Hello, Director!"

"Good evening, Director!"

Upon seeing the two men who greeted him, Jia Dongming smiled and asked them, "Comrade Jianguo! Comrade Aijun! Have the tasks been assigned?"

When Li Aijun heard Jia Dongming ask about their raid plan for tonight, he immediately reported respectfully to Jia Dongming: "Director! Before you arrived, we had already assigned tasks based on the casino's map. Please wait for our good news in the office."

Upon hearing Li Aijun's promise, Jia Dongming nodded subconsciously and solemnly instructed the two men: "Comrade Jianguo! Comrade Aijun! Casinos are often a mixed bag of people, and there may be some criminals hiding there. So when you raid this casino, you must make sure that the comrades are on high alert. If you find anyone acting suspiciously, you must not let them go easily."

"Rest assured, Chief! We guarantee to complete the mission!" Guo Jianguo made a firm promise to Jia Dongming after hearing his instructions. "Chief! We've already sent our comrades in charge of reconnaissance to infiltrate the casino disguised as gamblers. When we raid the casino, they'll pretend to be arrested gamblers and keep a close eye on the other gamblers' every move." Li Aijun, upon hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, reported his pre-prepared plan to him.

Upon hearing Li Aijun's plan, Jia Dongming nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile to the two of them, "Alright! I'll wait for your good news in my office."

Six large trucks, plus two sidecar motorcycles, carrying more than 300 armed guards from the security and patrol departments, drove out of the steel mill gate under the cover of night and headed towards the area where the casino was located.

Inside a warehouse in Haiyuncang Hutong, several middle-aged men heard the shouts from the casino and watched the gamblers, their faces beaming with excitement, gathered around the tables. One of them said to the leader with a broad smile, "Uncle Qian! I originally thought that since it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, there wouldn't be many people coming to our casino to gamble. But I didn't expect that there would be twice as many people as usual. It looks like we'll make a fortune tonight."

Hearing what his companion said and seeing the lively scene before him, the middle-aged man named Uncle Qian asked the other middle-aged man with a smug look on his face, "Fourth brother! Have you found the new venue I asked you to find?"

Upon hearing Uncle Qian's words, the fourth brother recalled the task Uncle Qian had recently entrusted to him, and a troubled expression immediately appeared on his face. He quickly said to Uncle Qian, "Uncle Qian! Since you arranged for me to find a new venue, I've been running all over the West District, HD District, and FT District. When I found a suitable place, the size didn't meet our requirements, and when I found a place with the required size, the confidentiality was terrible. Now I'm trying to find another suitable place, and I'll definitely let you know as soon as I find one."

“Uncle Qian! Our place is not only large, but also very secluded. Besides, if we find a new location, we will lose a lot of customers. Why would you go to the trouble of finding a new place?” Another middle-aged man next to Uncle Qian heard the conversation between Uncle Qian and Lao Si and was very puzzled. He asked Uncle Qian with a puzzled look on his face.

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's question, Uncle Qian's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he replied with a serious expression, "Wei Qiang! Our casino has been operating here for some time now. Not only do gamblers in the vicinity know about our casino, but gamblers from other places also know about our casino."

"In addition, many of the people who have been gambling at our casino recently are unfamiliar faces. I am worried that there may be police officers hiding among them. To be on the safe side, we must find another new location."

Upon hearing Uncle Qian's explanation and learning why Uncle Qian wanted to find a new venue, Wei Qiang quickly said to Uncle Qian, "Uncle Qian! Of course I know about what you just said. I even arranged for people to keep an eye on the actions of these unfamiliar faces. If they were police officers, they certainly wouldn't be involved in gambling. But these people have been gambling every day since they came to our casino, so they definitely don't seem like police spies."

Upon hearing Wei Qiang's report, Uncle Qian nodded subconsciously and said to Wei Qiang with a stern expression, "Wei Qiang! As the old saying goes, caution is the best policy. In our line of work, we must always be careful."

While Wei Qiang and Uncle Qian were talking, they were unaware that many eyes were secretly watching them from inside the casino.
