The interactions between Qi Yihan and Mr. Zhu surprised the managers.

Qi Yihan exchanged a few words with Mr. Zhu and turned to the managers. “Before this place was developed, was there a tomb?”

The few of them were stunned, and Manager Wu quickly nodded. “Yes, there was indeed a tomb, but before we started the project, we moved this tomb away and found some feng shui masters to take a look at it…”

Mr. Zhu asked Qi Yihan, “Why are you asking this?”

Qi Yihan looked at Tang Li as if she was the only one here who was qualified to talk about this matter.

The others also looked at Tang Li.

Tang Li said, “Beneath the tomb, you moved away, there is another tomb buried even deeper.”

These words stunned everyone.

Tang Li continued to ask Manager Wu, “Do you know who that woman was?”

“I don’t know. Back then, we dug out an epitaph with ‘The Tomb of the Meng family’ written on it.”

Mr. Zhu asked Tang Li, “What else do you know?”

“This person has taken away many young women in the past few years. After they were taken away, she stole their youth and beauty. She often hung around in various venues here, using her beauty to attract pretty girls.”

The men were shocked hearing these words.

“Why would she use her beauty to attract women? Isn’t she supposed to attract men?”

“Because now, pretty women prefer pretty women.”

“…”

After a moment of silence, Tang Li pointed at the girls beside her. “They were kidnapped years ago.”

Officer Yang nodded. “I’ll bring them back later and inform their families.”

Then he looked at the two old women. “They…”

Everyone looked at the two of them and sighed.

“They were kidnapped more than three years ago.”

“That long? Is there anyone else?”

“Yes, but all of them are dead. We can only dig down into the tomb and bring their bones out.”

Manager Wu asked instinctively, “If we dig up this tomb, will all the buildings on this street be destroyed?”

These words made everyone look at Qi Yihan instinctively.

Qi Yihan said, “Manager Wu, inform all the bosses on this street that we will have a meeting at 9 am tomorrow.”

Although the Qi family owned 60% of the shares in this street, 40% was still in the hands of these bosses. Even if Qi Yihan wanted to destroy it, he had to discuss it with them first.

Money was flowing in here every day. It was obvious that those bosses would object strongly.

However, he could put this matter aside for now. The most important thing now was to send the women back.

Officer Yang said, “Ladies, let’s go. I’ll contact your family to pick you up.”

Tang Zitong wanted to follow Tang Li. “Cousin, bring me with you. Otherwise, I will definitely get punished when my father comes to pick me up.”

Tang Li said coldly, “I’ll be going straight to the hospital. Do you wanna come?”

“Well…”

At this point, Officer Yang said, “Miss Tang, you’d better come along with us too.”

Tang Zitong thought that she was talking about Tang Li, so she grinned at her. “Cousin, the police officer wants you to go too.”

Officer Yang, “I’m talking about you.”

Tang Zitong was speechless.

Tang Li smiled and left with Qi Yihan and the others.

Just as they were about to reach the car park, Mr. Zhu suddenly stopped Qi Yihan and said, “Qi Yihan, I have something to discuss with you in private. Come to my car first.”

Qi Yihan nodded and said to Tang Li, “Go back to the car first.”

Then, he went to Mr. Zhu’s car with him.

Tang Li waited in the car for a long while before Qi Yihan came over.

After the car drove out, Tang Li turned to look at Qi Yihan.

Qi Yihan was still frowning when he noticed her gaze. He suddenly asked, “Tang Li, do you know how many grave goods are there in the tomb?”

Tang Li was about to speak.

Qi Yihan suddenly took out a pen and a checkbook from his pocket. He scribbled five million on them and handed it to Tang Li. “Take this as your pay for telling me that.”

Tang Li looked at the cheque in front of her, and her eyes instantly lit up. She took the cheque and glanced at it, and then said, smiling, “Yes, there are many gold, silver, and jade artifacts inside.”

Then, she asked, “Is that what Mr. Zhu wants to talk to you about?”

“Right. If we really have to dig that place up, it will take a lot of work. Without enough temptation, not to mention the owners of this street, even the higher-ups won’t approve.”

This street was one of the top five places in Imperial Capital City where tax rates were highest. It was impossible to move it at will.

Tang Li asked, “What did Mr. Zhu say?”

“He asked me about the grave goods in there, and asked me to come up with a good explanation that can fool the public.”

Tang Li knew that the two of them had already agreed on what to do next, so she asked, “What do you need me to do?”

Qi Yihan suddenly smiled and said, “This matter will definitely reach Father’s ears very soon. I have to let him know about this before anyone else tells him, so I need your help. If Father gets angry, help me cool him down.”

Tang Li smiled as well. “Alright, leave that to me.”

Unexpectedly, after she finished speaking, Qi Yihan wrote a string of numbers on the cheque. “This will be your reward.”

Tang Li looked at the cheque in a daze and felt that there was something wrong with the man tonight.

Seeing that Tang Li did not take it, Qi Yihan frowned and asked, “Too little?”

After asking, he took out another check and started writing numbers on it.

Tang Li was speechless.

It was ridiculous!
