#874 - Chapter 874 Obstructing traffic? Extortion? Damaging other people's property? Take him d
Chen Hao frowned subconsciously, but quickly smiled again.
Luckily, he was riding a motorcycle!
The economy is booming.
With a substantial increase in public income, the popularity of cars has exploded in the past two years, and traffic jams are a common occurrence.
Motorcycles are unaffected.
He continued riding close to the edge of the road, but his speed slowed down considerably.
"Shall we go home for lunch?" Xia Qingmo asked softly.
"Sure!"
"Do you have work later?"
"Yes."
Chen Hao nodded.
He lowered his voice so that only they could hear: "The equipment of the Navy, Air Force, and Space Force are all unable to operate underground."
"The war armor's attack is a bit weak, and the land-based particle cannon has enough power, but its mobility is lacking..."
In short, the army needs new equipment.
Suddenly!
Just as he was riding slowly along the roadside, chatting quietly with his wife, a harsh and noisy sound came from ahead.
It was the source of the traffic jam!
In sight.
Were eight brand-new electric sedans.
The side windows of the cars were decorated with '囍' (double happiness) characters, and the hoods were adorned with lace. The leading car was a Rolls-Royce Spectre.
Rolls-Royce...
Also produces electric cars?
That's normal!
The advent of Chinese electric cars, coupled with wireless charging technology, swept across global automakers.
Car companies lost their living space, and ultimately only faced three outcomes.
Small and medium-sized car companies went bankrupt.
Medium and large-sized car companies were acquired by Shenzhou Automobile and became one of its branch factories.
As for the top tier...
Cooperation!
They continue to use their own brands, but the core technology comes from Shenzhou Automobile, and the bulk of the profits also belong to Shenzhou Automobile—Rolls-Royce, under the BMW Group, now also produces electric cars.
The Spectre is the latest electric car model to be launched.
Priced at over 5 million!
At this moment, a group of elderly people were blocking the convoy, chattering at the driver.
Guarding this road, as long as they see a wedding car passing by, they rush up to stop the car and demand lucky money.
They are good at tailoring their demands to the situation; the better the car, the more they ask for.
Ordinary cars ask for Hongtashan cigarettes.
Better cars ask for Yuxi cigarettes.
And luxury cars...
Zhonghua cigarettes are the standard for Rolls-Royce!
"Grandpas and grandmas, how about a pack for each of you?"
A best man said with a smile, almost bowing to them: "I didn't bring that many cigarettes, even if I wanted to give them, I couldn't. You understand, right?"
Today is his brother's big day, and he doesn't want to cause trouble unless absolutely necessary.
Argue on the wedding day?
Unlucky!
According to Chinese tradition, one should be patient and prioritize harmony on the wedding day.
"If you don't have cigarettes, you can give money!" An old woman shouted.
"That's fine too!"
Another best man said with a smile: "50 yuan per person, is that okay?"
"50 yuan? Are you trying to send away beggars?!"
"Exactly! How much does a carton of Zhonghua cigarettes cost? Calculate the price based on the cigarette money!"
"That's right! Not a penny less!"
A group of old men and women clamored, confident that the other party couldn't do anything about them.
"No... that's too much!"
The best man frowned and said anxiously: "Grandpas and grandmas, our wedding car is rented, we're really not rich people. Besides, look behind you, there are already so many cars blocked, if the traffic police come later..."
"If they don't give money, break their car logo!"
Suddenly!
A voice came from afar.
Huh?
An old woman heard the shout and seemed to discover a new world in an instant.
She strode forward, rushed to the front of the Rolls-Royce, and grabbed the Spirit of Ecstasy with quick hands: "Are you going to give it or not? If you don't, I'll break it off!"
"No... Grandma! You can't do this!"
"This car is rented, we can't afford to pay for the damage!"
The two best men's faces changed.
"Just tell me if you're going to give it or not?!" The old woman glared at them fiercely.
"Break it off directly and put it in your pocket, only return their car logo if they give money." That voice came from afar again.
The old woman's eyes lit up again.
That's right!
First, break off the car logo. If you don't give money, I won't return it to you. Since you say the car is rented, without the car logo... see how you explain it to the rental company!
And so...
Crack!
The old woman, over seventy years old, had extraordinary strength.
With a crisp sound.
The Spirit of Ecstasy came off.
Instantly, the best men's faces turned pale!
Not just the best men!
The bride and groom in the car, as well as the bridesmaids and driver, all had drastic changes in expression.
"Well broken!"
That voice appeared again.
The next moment.
Chen Hao smiled at his wife who was taking pictures with her phone.
He walked towards the Rolls-Royce, his face full of a gentle smile, saying the most indifferent words: "The Rolls-Royce Spirit of Ecstasy is worth about two hundred thousand yuan, and destroying other people's property exceeding five thousand is a criminal offense punishable by imprisonment."
"Oh right! The others can't escape either."
"Obstructing traffic and causing congestion is a small matter, but the main thing is..."
"Forcibly blocking the road, extortion."
A group of old men and women were stunned.
"Who the hell are you?!" An old man with a bad temper came up and shoved Chen Hao: "Do you think you're a judge? We're asking for lucky money, it's a custom, don't you understand the rules? It's against the law... do you believe I'll beat you up?!"
"How about... you try beating me up?" Chen Hao was a little excited by what he said.
"Do you think I wouldn't dare?!"
The old man immediately raised his fist.
However...
It froze in mid-air.
Dozens of armed men in black appeared like divine soldiers descending from the sky.
The dark muzzles of their guns pointed at the old man.
Wee-ooh... Wee-ooh...
The sound of police sirens quickly approached.
That's right!
Chen Hao had already called the police.
Several police officers got out of the car, and when they saw a large group of men in black, surrounding several old people with guns...
The police officers almost broke down.
Who are these people?
How do they all have guns?
Until...
Chen Hao took off his motorcycle helmet, revealing a harmless smile.
He pointed at the group of old men and women: "Deliberately obstructing traffic is against the law, right? Blocking cars and forcibly demanding property counts as extortion, right? Oh right! The one who took the Spirit of Ecstasy, plus destroying their property."
In the past.
Given the age of these elderly people, they would usually not be prosecuted, but would only be required to compensate for the losses—many would simply refuse to pay and the matter would be dropped.
Now, it's different!
Everyone is equal before the law, no matter how old you are.
Those who deserve to be imprisoned will be imprisoned!
Those who deserve to be executed will be executed!
The law must never become a tool for certain groups to evade sanctions, let alone protect evildoers!
"Arrest them!" Hearing Chen Hao's words, the leading police officer shouted coldly: "Arrest them all!"
"It's him..." Suddenly!
The old woman who took the Spirit of Ecstasy pointed at Chen Hao and screamed: "I remember his voice! It was him who told me to break the car logo, and said..."
"Yes, I said it." Chen Hao nodded and smiled: "As an adult, don't you have any judgment? I told you to break it, so you broke it? I told you to die, would you die? You're so old, doing immoral things all day long, you've lived your life in vain!"
"I'm not afraid!" Contrary to everyone's expectations, the old man who punched Chen Hao looked fearless: "Great, I'll get to eat and live for free in jail!"
