I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Tao's voice was choked with sobs, filled with extreme fear and despair.

Jiang Chen was still basking in the sense of accomplishment brought by the system summary report when this sudden phone call was like a bucket of ice water, instantly pulling him back to reality.

His brows furrowed unconsciously.

"Sell a kidney?"

Jiang Chen's voice was cold, revealing no emotional fluctuation.

"What kind of good thing have you been up to out there, you rascal?"

"Five hundred thousand? Is that enough to make you sell a kidney?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's calm tone on the other end of the phone, Jiang Tao cried even harder.

"Brother! I...I was wrong!"

"I met a girlfriend online..."

"She said her family was struggling financially, so I... I sent her gifts worth 30,000 yuan..."

"Later, when I ran out of living expenses, I took out an online loan... Now, with the interest compounding, it's ballooned to 500,000..."

Jiang Chen listened without changing his expression, but his eyes grew colder and colder.

Online dating.

Sending gifts.

Online lending.

When these keywords were put together, he understood instantly.

This is a typical "pig butchering scam," specifically targeting naive young men like Jiang Tao who are inexperienced and driven by lust.

"Promising!"

Jiang Chen sneered, his voice not loud, but carrying a chilling aura.

"Would you really risk your life for a mannequin you've never even met?"

"Your parents sent you to university so you could study, not so you could become an ATM for scammers!"

"Wait."

Send me your address, I'll be right there.

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Jiang Tao to continue crying.

He stood at the intersection of "Jiang Wanshan Avenue," looking at the nascent business empire that belonged to him in the distance, and a nameless fire ignited in his heart.

He worked so hard to build this empire so that his family could live a good life and so that they could stand tall and be proud.

It's not to let these good-for-nothings be slaughtered like pigs outside!

"What's wrong?"

A clear, concerned voice came from behind.

Su Qing walked over at some point. She noticed that Jiang Chen's expression was not good, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Going to the provincial capital?"

Jiang Chen turned around and saw that it was Su Qing. The coldness on his face lessened a bit.

He nodded.

"Okay, I'm going to take care of some family matters."

He paused, looking at Su Qing's pretty face full of concern, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

"By the way..."

"Go visit your father."

"Let's see if my future father-in-law is satisfied with me as his son-in-law."

"Pooh!"

Su Qing's face flushed red instantly. She spat lightly, but her eyes darted away.

"Who...who is your father-in-law! Don't talk nonsense!"

Although she retorted verbally, her cheeks, flushed red to the roots of her ears, and the barely concealed shyness and sweetness in her eyes had already betrayed her true feelings.

"but……"

Su Qing changed the subject and muttered something under her breath.

"I...I was just thinking of going home to get some clean clothes."

"It's too cold in the village, and the clothes I brought aren't enough."

Jiang Chen smiled even more as he looked at her adorable, contradictory expression.

He knew that the girl was worried about him and wanted to go with him to check on him.

"OK."

Jiang Chen didn't point it out and made the decision directly.

"Then go pack your things, we'll leave right away."

"good!"

Su Qing responded and, like a cheerful little deer, turned and ran towards her RV.

As Jiang Chen watched her retreating figure, the smile on his face slowly faded, replaced by an unfathomable coldness.

He took out his phone and dialed Wang Dagou's number.

"Da Gou, you and Li Qiang keep an eye on the logistics company for now."

"I need to go out for a trip, which could take anywhere from three to five days to a week."

"We cannot let our guard down in the village's security work, understand?"

"Don't worry, Brother Chen! With us brothers here, not even a mosquito can fly in!" On the other end of the phone, Wang Dagou's voice was as loud and powerful as ever.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen greeted the village head, Jiang Shunde, and briefly handed over the village affairs.

After doing all this, he raised his head and looked towards the provincial capital.

How dare you deceive the Jiang family?

You want to mess with my brother's kidneys?

well.

No matter who you are, or which dark corner you are hiding in.

Even through the internet cable, I'm going to find you all one by one!
