We waited downstairs for a while, and then Zhang Ben's little brother took out the money and put it in the trunks of three cars.
In the car.
"I gave them all." I asked Zhang Ben.
"With the size of his bureau, he can get more than 500 yuan at a time, so I gave him 350 yuan. I got this from Man Yao in cash, and it has ten yuan in change, haha." Zhang Ben said with a smile.
"When will he give the rest to you?"
I asked again.
"Give it tomorrow."
Zhang Ben replied.
"good."
After listening, I nodded lightly.
That night, Xiao'er's gambling house was completely closed, and it never opened again, which was tantamount to letting Sir Wei and Ming Ming win.
This more than five hundred is definitely not a small amount of money for Xiao'er, because he is different from me. I work for myself, but he works for Lao He's family and Tangtang, so he can definitely earn money. It's just a smaller proportion.
"This cost him more than 500 yuan. I guess his ears will be uncomfortable for a while." Zhang Ben continued to say with a smile.
"Can I make him feel uncomfortable for a while?"
I raised my eyelids and immediately said to the old immortal: "Do that as soon as possible."
"I'm still working on it. I haven't laid the groundwork yet, but it's coming soon. Don't worry about me. You can continue to punish me. I'll punish you." Lao Xian waved his hand and replied.
"What can you two eat?"
I turned to look at Sir Wei and Mingming and asked.
"If you don't want to eat, please recharge the whole place. I'll leave early tomorrow morning." Lord Wei yawned.
"I have to go back tomorrow, so we won't get together. When you come to Beijing, let's talk again." Liu Mingming also said.
"Okay, let's go home." I responded, and then said to Zhang Ben: "You can go buy some food later."
"okay."
After saying that, we drove home. Sir Wei and Mingming stayed at my place. We had a drink that night and then fell asleep.
Early the next morning, the two of them booked tickets to their respective destinations, and then left.
"As soon as the bank opened in the morning, I asked someone to deposit the money. The capital is all here. You two will win half of it."
I reached out and handed over two bank cards.
"Isn't it difficult for you? There are so many people asking for money from you. You can take what you win and use it first." Sir Wei said with a smile.
"Take it away. When I really can't handle it, I will open my mouth to you." I said without any doubt.
"...Okay, then I'll leave first."
Lord Wei nodded.
"There's news about the land, I'll give you a call."
I patted Sir Wei on the shoulder and said something to him.
"If you agree, I don't have to worry."
Lord Wei replied with a smile.
…
I watched Sir Wei and Liu Mingming leave in their Land Rover downstairs, and then I received a call from Zhang Ben.
"Brother, we found a new candidate."
Zhang Ben said quickly.
"Who?"
I asked.
"Xinhua Village Public Security Director, we met last time for dinner." Zhang Ben replied.
"Let him come to the company and I'll have a chat with him."
I thought for a moment and said quickly.
"Okay, I'll take him there at noon."
Zhang Ben responded and hung up the phone.
…
Forty minutes later, I was sitting in the office of Taihe Real Estate. Lao Xian strolled in, sat down on my desk, took a sip of water and said: "I followed Lao Gao's words and went to the Water Conservancy Bureau. The director surnamed Tao took the money he gave him, and he agreed to help with Qi Changfu's matter."
"I want it." I asked in surprise.
"Fuck, why don't you want it? I didn't ask anyone to introduce me. I just went there in a daze. After a few words of conversation, I gave away the money. Now these cadres are all fucking jealous, haha." Lao Xian sneered. He said.
"...just wait for the letter."
I rubbed my palms together and replied.
…
Today, Lao Tao from the Water Conservancy Bureau went to the Municipal Party Committee to do some work. He had time to meet with Vice Mayor He at noon. The two of them chatted and talked about nonsense for the time being, and just talked about the main topic.
"...Leader, have you heard about Qi Changfu?" Lao Tao asked cautiously.
"Haha, what's wrong?" Vice Mayor He looked up at Lao Tao and asked with a smile.
"I have met this man twice. He is quite capable in normal affairs, but this time he really deserves to be sentenced. No matter how low the rank is, he is still a state cadre. How can he stab someone with a knife if they disagree with him?" Tao muttered to himself.
When Lao He heard this, he was silent for a second, and then succinctly said eight words: "Permitted by the law, with appropriate care."
"Then let me thank you on behalf of Qi Changfu."
Lao Tao immediately smiled and nodded.
"Do your job well, don't take credit for it, don't take it for granted."
Lao He gave ambiguous instructions again.
"I understand, leader."
When Lao Tao heard these words, he immediately became excited. These words were obviously an attempt to adjust his own rhythm, and this time it was not in vain.
…
Five minutes later, Lao Tao left. While walking downstairs, he sent a message to Lao Xian, which read: "Wait for the result."
In the office of Taihe Real Estate.
"Old Tao, you sent me a message."
"What did you say?" I asked quickly towards the old immortal.
"Let's wait for the result." the old immortal replied.
"Pfft."
After hearing this, I let out a long breath, relaxed my back on the chair, and then sighed and said: "Old Qi escaped a disaster."
"Well, what's the point of escaping a disaster? The person who came out will be ruined. The court will definitely give him a suspended death sentence. Even if we are willing to spend money to reduce his sentence, it will be at least 15 years." Lao Xian replied with the same sigh.
"I tried my best, so I have no regrets."
"Yes, I feel at ease."
Lao Xian and I have put a lot of thought into the matter of Qi Changfu, and I even made a special trip to Tieling. Therefore, with the current result, we are satisfied and relieved.
At noon, Lao Xian and I were having dinner. Zhang Ben brought over the security director of Xinhua Village. To put it bluntly, he is the security guard of the village. He is the lowest level in the village and is elected by the people. We have met before. , but I have no impression of him.
"Brother, this is Yu Hongzhi."
Zhang Benchong made an introduction to me.
"Uh-huh."
I looked up at Yu Hongzhi. He was about thirty-three or four years old, with a medium build, a shaved head, wearing trousers, a half-sleeved shirt, and an old Longines men's watch. He didn't look exaggerated. It gives people a very solid feeling.
"Hello, my name is Xiang Nan."
I put down the chopsticks in my hands, stood up, and shook hands with him.
"Hello, hello, Mr. Xiang." Yu Hongzhi nodded repeatedly and greeted me.
"Sit down and let's talk."
I pointed to the sofa and sat down with him.
…
While I was busy looking for new candidates, Xiaoer was not idle either. He was also looking for someone, and he had already found one. He was an old resident of Xinhua Village. He had never held a position in the village department before, but he was working in the village. He is quite prestigious, but he had a feud with Qi Changfu in the past. His name was Shen Dahai.
A more intense battle begins with these two new candidates for village committee secretary.
