Reborn as Zhao Ruilong of Handong, I will defy fate.

Chapter 222 When I, at Level 1, make my move, someone will be in deep trouble!

Soldiers are valuable and quick.

With Zhao Ruilong's backing, the list was quickly drafted.

When my cousin Chang Chenghu arrived at the office, I immediately handed him the list.

"You immediately find someone to track and monitor these people on the list. If you discover any illegal activities, call and report them immediately!"

"To ensure that there are both witnesses and physical evidence, it is best to bring cameras or video cameras to preserve the evidence on the spot and avoid failing to convict someone!"

Chang Chenghu said "Oh" and looked down at the list.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

"Brother, are you crazy?"

"These people are all from our district's industry and commerce bureau, health bureau, court, procuratorate, and other units!"

"You...you want me to follow and monitor them? This...isn't this suicide? If we don't find out they've broken the law, it'll be very easy for them to retaliate against us!"

Cheng Du picked up his teacup and gave a cold smile.

After taking a leisurely sip, he gently put down the teacup.

"Are you a tiger or a rat, you son of a bitch?"

"Since I dared to call you here and entrust this task to you, it proves that there will be no risk involved."

"Surveying, monitoring, and reporting illegal activities are not illegal in themselves, so what are you afraid of?"

"Besides, without anyone backing you up, there's no benefit to be gained after it's done. Why would I let you do this?"

Chang Chenghu was stunned.

I glanced at my cousin's serious expression, and then at the weighty list.

With his emotional intelligence and IQ, he certainly knew that this was 100% a power struggle.

I was responsible for doing the dirty and tiring work.

After being stunned for less than two seconds, Chang Chenghu immediately laughed:

"Brother, are you kidding me?"

"Even if there's no benefit to it, I will do my best to get things done!"

Chang Chenghu spoke these words from the bottom of his heart, without the slightest hint of pretense.

He knew all too well that without his cousin, he wouldn't be where he is today.

He used to be just a small-time hoodlum, doing odd jobs, collecting debts, and handling demolitions...

As his cousin's career progressed, he also benefited from it.

He was involved in numerous engineering projects in Guangming District.

Selling building materials, renting equipment, excavating earth, acting as a labor intermediary...

The former petty thug has now transformed into a big boss.

I earn more in one day than I used to in a whole year.

He wished he could worship his cousin, Cheng Du.

So as long as there's no risk, he's willing to do it even without any benefit.

After all, he has made a fortune in other areas, so he should play a role in doing so.

As for who's backing them up...

Chang Chenghu didn't need to ask; he could guess that it must be his cousin's benefactor, Young Master Zhao.

This young master of Handong is really good to my cousin.

Without Young Master Zhao's appreciation and support, how could my cousin have been promoted from a junior officer to deputy director so quickly?

Now look at this list.

They were mostly employees from units in Guangming District.

And Mr. Zhao's Huilong Electronics happens to be located in Guangming District.

Many of the high-tech enterprises and major projects invested in by Huilong Group are also located in Guangming District.

All signs are sufficient to illustrate this.

This is Young Master Zhao, who is about to conduct a major cleanup of the Guangming District.

We need to discipline these disobedient and dishonest ones.

I'll arrange for someone to follow and monitor them to see if they've done anything illegal or disorderly, and if so, I'll report it...

It's obvious they're just looking for an excuse to make a decision.

It is estimated that Young Master Zhao will also arrange for others to investigate from other angles, such as whether they are involved in corruption.

Only by employing multiple approaches can a decisive blow be delivered.

So……

If you want to receive praise and commendation, you must not only do things well, but also do them in a way that satisfies Young Master Zhao.

Thinking of this, Chang Chenghu looked around, then stood up and leaned closer to ask:

"Brother, if these people haven't done anything wrong, could we..."

Chang Chenghu didn't need to say anything extra; just winking and making faces would suffice.

"Don't try to frame me!"

Cheng Du said with a serious expression:

"This is itself an action to make an example of someone and to rectify the atmosphere."

"The goal is not to completely eliminate all those in power, but to give them a wake-up call and educate them."

"Let them wake up and realize that they are heartless and unforgiving towards ordinary people who severely punish minor mistakes, and that they too can be treated the same way!"

"So stop overdoing it, making something illegal out of nothing, creating evidence where there is none. It hasn't come to that yet, understand?"

Chang Chenghu nodded repeatedly with a smile.

"I know, I know."

"Since it's just simple tracking and surveillance, that makes things much easier."

"But can we really collect evidence and report every illegal act?"

Cheng Du said with a stern face, "Of course, even if you're drunk and urinate on the roadside, it's still a violation of public order and can be reported!"

"As for friends and relatives getting together to play cards, we usually don't interfere, but if we really want to be serious about it, isn't it also illegal gambling?"

Chang Chenghu nodded emphatically.

He understood; this time, they were going to escalate the matter.

We have to nitpick and find problems with a magnifying glass!

Minor mistakes made on a daily basis go unnoticed and are not taken seriously.

Just like many people know, you can't drive after drinking, as it will constitute drunk driving or even driving under the influence.

However, legally speaking, riding a bicycle after drinking alcohol is also illegal.

There are many other similar behaviors that seem harmless but are actually illegal.

For example, digging a well without permission is illegal, as groundwater is a national mineral resource and cannot be extracted without authorization.

Cutting down trees in one's own yard or woodland without applying for permission is also illegal.

In addition, there are other illegal activities such as stealing bird nests, electrofishing, throwing objects from high-rise buildings, demanding dowries, and verbally abusing others.

Even though fishing is a popular recreational activity, some people only know that they cannot fish during closed seasons or in closed areas.

However, few people know that it is illegal to use live animals such as loaches and shrimp as bait for fishing.

The reason why mudfish fishing constitutes the crime of illegal fishing is that live mudfish swimming in the water can easily attract carnivorous fish such as snakehead, mandarin fish, and mandarin fish to take the bait.

This fishing method has an extremely high success rate, which will lead to a rapid decline in the number of carnivorous fish, thus disrupting the ecological balance.

Furthermore, to prevent loaches from running around, they are usually soaked in chemicals beforehand. Once the loaches enter the water, they will indirectly cause water pollution.

Therefore, it is reasonable for the law to define the use of live animals such as loaches for fishing as illegal.

But when it comes to implementation, who has the time to check what kind of bait the angler is using?

If you find out you used loaches to fish and didn't catch a single one, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?

In short.

In daily life, due to long-standing ingrained beliefs and a lack of legal knowledge, many behaviors are actually illegal.

It's just that the incident was minor and had little impact, so it wasn't investigated or prosecuted.

Just like the old saying goes.

Some things weigh less than four ounces on the scale, but once they're on it, they can weigh a thousand pounds!

Therefore, whether it is illegal or not depends on whether you want to take it seriously.

After a while.

Chang Chenghu accepted the order and left, while Cheng Du lightly tapped the desk with his fingertips.

He knew that his cousin's departure would soon stir up a storm.

This storm will have a huge impact on the officialdom of Guangming District and even the entire Jingzhou City.

Many people will be unlucky. Demotion or downgrading is one thing, but being detained, fined, or even imprisoned means losing their secure jobs.

Since they knew a storm was brewing, and that Young Master Zhao was serious this time.

Of course, Cheng Du didn't want to 'stand by and watch someone die' either.

If I want to go further in the future, I will need the support and help of others.

After all, even with Young Master Zhao's support, wouldn't I still need someone's help to carry out my work better after I make progress?

Young Master Zhao will only pave the way for me; I still have to do the actual work myself. How can I expect him to do everything?

When someone promotes or gives you important responsibilities, isn't it because they hope you can not only do your basic job well, but also get things done well?

If someone can't even do the most basic job well, and is just a good-for-nothing, what's the point of promoting them?

And I want to give some people a heads-up before this storm hits.

This allowed them to successfully escape disaster.

How could they not be grateful to themselves?

If I ever need anything in the future, how could they not help me?

Anyway, Young Master Zhao just wants to rectify the atmosphere.

He'll be satisfied as long as he makes an example of someone to scare others and the atmosphere is rectified.

So who will be the chicken that gets killed...?

He entrusted this matter to me, wasn't that just leaving the decision to me?

How could I not take this opportunity to do something?

Think of this.

Du Cheng opened the drawer and took out another list that was exactly the same.

After looking at it carefully and thinking about it, Cheng Du took out his personal phone and started making calls to invite people to dinner.

That night.

Chang Chenghu then arranged for many of his underlings to begin the operation.

But he did not allow his underlings to act rashly.

Instead, they first tracked and monitored the situation, investigated and collected evidence, and then reported it after becoming familiar with the situation and having gathered sufficient evidence.

As the time goes.

The effects naturally began to appear.

Especially on Friday nights and weekends.

After working for a few days, I can finally relax and have time to visit relatives and friends and attend various dinner parties.

Some people were caught on camera smoking expensive cigarettes and drinking fine wines at the dinner table, while others were caught red-handed riding their bikes home after drinking.

If someone invites colleagues or friends to play cards, even if they are at home and the amount of money is small, as long as it involves gambling, how can it be said that it is not illegal?

Soon, a series of reports began to emerge.

With irrefutable witness testimony and physical evidence, arrests are naturally being made one after another.

A fierce storm came, leaving many people bewildered and anxious.

Even Lü Liang, the then deputy chief prosecutor of the Jingzhou Procuratorate, was extremely troubled.

Although he claimed to be incorruptible and honest, and that there was absolutely no problem with his conduct and actions.

But his wife was out shopping with friends on the weekend, and because it was so crowded, someone bumped into her.

Having developed a domineering and aggressive attitude at home, he is also fierce and domineering when he goes out, and cannot tolerate being bullied in the slightest.

He publicly insulted the other person on the street, calling them blind and spitting on them.

Logically speaking, it's not a big deal for a woman to swear in the street.

The noise from countless people every day is nothing compared to what's happening every day.

Even if the two parties involved start arguing and then physically fighting, they usually end up reconciling and trying to smooth things over.

This time, however, someone called the police, and she was arrested on the spot.

She was accused of insulting others and disturbing public order.

Upon receiving the notification, Lü Liang was completely stunned.

I plopped down on the sofa, my head buzzing.

These days.

He has already heard quite a bit of news.

Not only in Guangming District, but also in Jingzhou City, many civil servants and their relatives and friends have suffered.

Those who work in departments such as industry and commerce, procuratorate, and court are practically guaranteed to be arrested for any illegal activity.

I never expected that this storm would blow into my own home.

What should we do now?

The wife's behavior was indeed illegal.

Insulting others in public and spitting at them certainly constitutes disturbing public order.

He was a law graduate and had worked in the procuratorial system for many years, so of course he knew that the Guangming District Branch was not wrong to detain and fine his wife.

He was well aware that his wife was going through menopause and was irritable. She was easily angered and would yell at people at home, and the same was true when she was out. She would explode at the slightest provocation.

But he never expected...

Such severe punishments for minor mistakes can happen to one's own family members.

Detention for fifteen days and a fine of two thousand yuan!

Two thousand yuan is equivalent to more than a month's salary for my wife.

He was also detained for fifteen days.

Being inside for so long has delayed a lot of work. How much loss will this cause to the company?

Even worse, the Guangming District Public Security Bureau not only notified her, her family member, but also informed her workplace of the detention decision.

Even if it's done in accordance with laws and regulations, this shows a complete lack of consideration for her feelings, leaving her with no face to stay at her workplace after her release.

and so……

With such a severe punishment, who would believe it wasn't intentional?

"Okay, really okay!"

"If they can't find anything wrong with me, but they find something wrong with my wife, they'll make her suffer!"

"Now, even if I'm not punished or demoted, it will be difficult for me to get promoted and transferred to the provincial procuratorate!"

Lü Liang is not new to the system.

He quickly realized that he was one of the targets of this raging storm.

However, I am an honest and upright person.

He does not associate with businessmen, does not attend business dinners, and does not gamble or drink alcohol.

He doesn't even go fishing or shopping on weekends; he just stays home cleaning and reading.

As for why he was punished?

Lü Liang thought about it carefully.

Recently, there was a case involving a minor offense but a severe penalty, which had a significant impact on the Fulin Old Restaurant.

In this case, I support upholding the original verdict.

Because in his view, breaking the law is breaking the law.

How could a restaurant owner pay a 2,000 fine and then refuse to pay the remaining 18,000?

What's wrong with the Industry and Commerce Bureau applying for enforcement and imposing additional fines on people who refuse to comply?

Everything is completely legal and compliant, and follows legal procedures.

The restaurant owner brought people to verbally abuse and cause a disturbance, and coupled with his refusal to comply, it's only right that he was detained.

However, unexpectedly...

The idea that minor mistakes should be severely punished and trivial matters should be blown out of proportion can happen to me so quickly.

Isn't the goal to strictly enforce the law?

Shouldn't the law be followed?

When the paddle hit me, I immediately felt the pain.

Fifteen days!

Two thousand yuan!

He just cursed a few times on the street and spat.

Lü Liang grew angrier the more he thought about it, but there was nothing he could do.

The cell phone rings.

As soon as Lü Liang saw the caller ID, he answered the call immediately.

"Hey Director Lu, this is Lü Liang. I'm fine, but I just found out that my wife got into an argument with someone while shopping and spat at them. She's been detained."

"Of course it's the maximum penalty, 2,000 yuan for fifteen days. I was just about to pack some daily necessities and a change of clothes to send to her!"

"What? Your cousin's company was reported for illegally discharging pollutants? Doesn't he own several shops, like car washes and detailing stores? How could that be reported?"

"Yes, that's right. It's illegal to discharge wastewater from car washes directly without reporting or treatment, but who cares about that normally?"

"But we're lucky, at least we didn't get into trouble. One of my two section chiefs got into trouble for gambling after playing mahjong with relatives at a dinner party."

"There's an even worse case: I attended an old classmate's birthday party, and before I left, they forced two packs of cigarettes on me. Then I rode my bicycle home and was reported for suspected bribery and drunk driving!"

At this point, Lü Liang's face was full of worry, yet he was powerless to do anything about it.

Who told his wife and subordinates to be arrested, strictly in accordance with the law?

"We severely punish small restaurants for minor mistakes, and now we're being treated the same way!"

"This tit-for-tat approach is just making us suffer the consequences of our own actions!"
