Zhang Tiande is a smart man. Even if he doesn't understand foreign words, he can still get a glimpse of the beautiful life abroad from the pictures.

In his opinion, drinking foreign wine, eating foreign food, driving a foreign car, and living in a foreign house are the days that men should really enjoy.

And their father and grandfather lived like cattle and horses.

Just to live the kind of good life you imagined, the first thing is to have money, you have to have enough money.

Only in this way can we find a way to sneak to the south, then find a way to take a boat out to sea, and finally reach the other side of the ocean.

And that kind of money can't be earned by working as a worker for several lifetimes, so we have to find some convenient ways.

Zhang Tiande adhered to this belief. After graduating from junior high school, he refused his father's request to take over and wandered the streets all day long, looking for opportunities to make a fortune.

After wandering around for nearly two years, Zhang Tiande got acquainted with the gang of green men who stole things everywhere, and soon realized the business opportunities.

Those brainless guys didn't have any business sense after stealing things.

As long as they can get 20 yuan for a brand new 28-inch bumper, they will be very satisfied with it.

A plum blossom watch only costs ten yuan.

As for those antiques, these guys who hadn't even finished elementary school just sold them as ordinary bowls and basins.

When he heard that the guys were excited about selling a gold bracelet for five yuan, Zhang Tiande felt that his opportunity had come.

He invited all the green men in the county to have a meal at the most luxurious hotel in the county, and announced at the dinner table that in the future, those green men who wanted to sell stolen goods could trade with him directly.

Since Zhang Tiande had already become famous on the streets of the county town, the green-skinned men who had not yet realized that they had been reduced to mere fish raised their hands in the air and cheered.

After all, for them, stealing is relatively easy, but selling stolen goods is more difficult.

Sometimes, the stolen goods have not found a buyer for a long time. In order to avoid being discovered, they will even throw away the stolen goods as garbage.

Now there are people who are willing to take the initiative to help sell stolen goods, which is just what they want.

In the following years, Zhang Tiande made a lot of money by helping these green men sell stolen goods, and at the same time he also met many prominent figures in Huangyuan County.

At this time, he was very business-minded and did not stand still, but chose to expand his business.

He wants to open a shop and use it as a stronghold. In this way, he can make his "customers" more confident, purchase more stolen goods, and save enough money to travel abroad as soon as possible.

It's just that these days, all the shops on the streets are state-owned. Whether it's a breakfast shop, a shop, a supply and marketing cooperative or a car repair shop on the street, the employees inside are all official state employees.

The business that Zhang Tiande was doing was not on the table. Even the prominent people he knew would not be able to help him open a state-owned store.

Having no choice but to do so, Zhang Tiande set his sights on the illegal waste spots on the outskirts of the city.

These days, the monthly scrap collection is also state-run. However, not only are the purchase prices of state-run scrap points low, but the service attitude is also very poor. Residents have to swallow their anger every time they go to sell scraps.

Later, several shabby households in suburban communes found a few dilapidated shacks and established a illegal waste point.

The purchase price is higher than that of the state-owned scrap shop, and the service attitude is also much better, and it is open 24 hours a day.

Of course, the residents of the county chose to sell their scraps at black scrap points.

Relevant units in the county have also thought about rectifying those illegal waste sites, but considering that the lives of those in dilapidated households are not easy, and those shacks are owned by communes on the outskirts of the city, which are beyond their jurisdiction, they pretend not to notice.

arrive.

The black waste spot took root and grew vigorously, and came into Zhang Tiande's sight.

After he conducted several investigations into the black scrap spots while pretending to sell scraps, he immediately made up his mind to take down the black scrap spots.

Because this place is so suitable for hiding stolen goods. Who would have thought that there is a calligraphy and painting of the Ming Dynasty hidden under a pile of waste paper! Who would have thought that there is a vase from the previous dynasty hidden among a pile of broken wine bottles?

Woolen cloth!

In addition, he has now roped in several younger brothers, who are usually responsible for helping him purchase stolen goods and deliver goods.

These people need a relatively legal identity cover so that they will not be noticed.

What better person to use as a cover than a garbage collector?

Therefore, the day after Zhang Tiande left the illegal waste site, he summoned a few brothers and held a meeting.

At the meeting, Zhang Tiande unified the minds of the little brothers and distributed weapons such as hoes and machetes to the little brothers.

He also promised that once the illegal waste point was captured, each person would be given a bonus of 50 cents, and he would also treat them to a feast at the most luxurious restaurant in the city.

With bonuses and food, those people suddenly became excited, armed themselves with weapons, and rushed into the black waste spot with howling.

It cannot be said that the low-income people in the illegal scrap points have no fighting ability. After all, they are all gangsters and often fight over scraps.

It's just that these people, facing Zhang Tiande's "regular army", had no ability to resist, and were quickly driven out of the illegal waste spot.

Seeing that the illegal scrap shop they had been running for many years was taken away, the poor people also wanted to take it back, but they soon discovered that this was an impossible task.

In terms of force, they are no match for Zhang Tiande and the others, and because the illegal scrap shop itself is illegal, they have no way to find official support.

There is no other way, those poor people can only swallow their teeth.

After Zhang Tiande seized the black scrap spot, he fulfilled his promise, and after a grand celebration, he officially started the road to development and growth.

The development of the matter was similar to what he had guessed. Since the establishment of the illegal waste point, Zhang Tiande's business has rapidly tripled.

He also recruited a few crooks and began to send these crooks to deceive and abduct people in the county.

After getting money, Zhang Tiande was prepared for danger in times of peace, cultivated several confidants, and also purchased a lot of shotguns to build the Black Waste Point into a strong stronghold.

"Director Li, although you guys are powerful, I think it's impossible to take down Zhang Tiande in one fell swoop."

On the oxcart, after introducing Zhang Tiande's situation, Manager Zhang kindly reminded him.

Of course, he may not necessarily have good intentions, because this time Li Weidong went to the county's illegal waste spot and specially brought Manager Zhang with him.

If he fails to capture the black scrap spot in one fell swoop this time, he will bear the brunt of the consequences as a traitor and will be dealt with by Zhang Tiande.

Manager Zhang is very clear about Zhang Tiande's methods. Although this guy talks politely and always has a harmless smile on his face, his methods are actually very cruel.

Not long ago, a guy sent to the countryside to rob tombs broke a Ming Dynasty porcelain plate because he was chased by villagers on his way back.

After he came back, Zhang Tiande tied him to a pillar in the black waste spot and used a machete to chop off the thumb of the guy's little hand, and he did so in front of everyone.

Manager Zhang was among them and was so frightened that he almost peed.

The things he committed this time were much bigger than that guy.

Li Weidong chuckled and said: "If you are afraid..."

"Can you just let me go and prevent me from participating in this operation?" Manager Zhang was overjoyed.

Li Weidong rolled his eyes: "What good things are you thinking about, grandson? If you are afraid, tell us all the arrangements in the black waste point now. Only in this way can we strive for the greatest success rate."

Manager Zhang had no choice but to raise his eyes and think for a long time, and explained the situation in the black waste spot in detail.

Generally speaking, there are five young men in the black scrap shop. They are Zhang Tiande's escorts and will not leave the scrap shop to perform tasks on weekdays.

These five people are guarding the illegal scrap shop. In addition to protecting Manager Zhang, they are also responsible for purchasing scraps.

The weapons they used...

Li Weidong burst out laughing after hearing this. According to Manager Zhang's description, this Zhang Tiande was a powerful figure, but nothing more than that.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will understand how someone like Zhang Tiande, who only went to junior high school and has not received formal training, can deploy a tight defense.

However, the black scrap points are open every day, and residents in the city and people who specialize in buying scraps go to the scrap shops to sell scraps.

If you are not careful, you can easily injure people by accident.

....

It was already noon when the ox cart arrived at Huangyuan County.

Because Wang Erdan and the others were in a hurry to leave, they did not prepare dry food.

Li Weidong couldn't let them work hungry, so when he encountered a state-owned restaurant, he took out his money and national food stamps and asked Sun Lanhua to go in and buy a dozen pancakes.

Huangyuan County is located in the north, and residents like to eat pasta. Even the cooks in state-owned restaurants can make good pancakes.

The pancake was baked to a crispy brown color, and was still steaming with warm white steam. When he took a bite while it was still hot, the unique fragrance of wheat immediately danced on the tip of his tongue. Li Weidong narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

He felt that this stuff was much more delicious than the dim sum in Daoxiang Village in the capital.

If Li Weidong is like this, let alone the gang of commune members. They haven't eaten white flour for nearly half a year, let alone this kind of pancake mixed with meat and oil.

Wang Erdan swallowed the cake into his stomach in one breath, wiped the residue from the corner of his mouth, stuffed his fingers into his mouth, licked the residue into his mouth, enjoying the last bit of delicious food, and then burped with satisfaction.

"Brother Wei Dong, I owe you this time. I will definitely pay you back when I get the food back."

Wang Erdan said bold words, but felt a little weak in his heart.

He had already calculated it just now. Those pancakes just now were worth one yuan and fifty cents. Even if they got the food back, they wouldn't be able to pay it back.

Li Weidong chuckled and did not correct his statement, which made Wang Erdan feel a lot more relaxed.

Although Huangyuan County is a county town, the buildings on the streets are very old. Most of the people walking on the streets are members of the surrounding communes.

The means of transportation used by the members was naturally an ox cart.

Therefore, Li Weidong and his party were not conspicuous.

As the oxcart wandered to the western suburbs of the county, the number of pedestrians gradually became sparse, and occasionally people carrying large and small bags of waste passed by on the road.

"These are people who specialize in buying scraps in the county and then selling them to illegal scrap shops to earn the price difference. They say it's a business, but it's actually hard work and they can only earn about five cents a day." Manager Zhang introduced everything in detail.
