The first step in Li Yifu's plan to seize the Zhou family's money was to cut off his wings. Although Zhou Jinghai was already frail, a sick tiger was still called a tiger. The Zhou family had established various relationships over the years. Once Zhou Jinghai was alerted, he would turn against him.
The power of a single blow cannot be underestimated.
Li Yifu will first get rid of Zhou Jinghai's right-hand man Lin Yun and his two sons. Once these three are eliminated, the only one the Zhou family can talk to is Zhang Youfeng. The second step of the plan is of course to seal Zhou Jinghai away.
No one can come in contact with him, so he can't get any external information or give any instructions, and he will become completely deaf, blind and mute. Hehe! A deaf and blind tiger, what are you afraid of?
The third step, of course, is to wait for Zhou Jinghai to die. If you are still dragging your feet, you might as well use some tricks in the end...
But to publicly eliminate Lin Yun and his son, there must be a reason. Groundless accusations cannot scare people. After all, Lishi County is not our own, and the reputation to the outside world cannot be too bad, and the appearance cannot be too ugly.
Just looking for a reason, the reason came
Let’s also talk about the group of workers who caused trouble in the Li family’s mine. After going up the mountain to become bandits, they started fighting with the Li family. The robberies were only carried out for the Li family’s caravans, and other families’ caravans and goods only received tolls. The Li family
If they can't be moved away, they'll be burned on the spot.
At the beginning of this month, Lin Dongping and a few guys encountered this group of miners and bandits on the road with the purchased goods. Lin Dongping has been responsible for the external affairs of the Zhou family in the past few years. He has seen a lot of different religions and is quite experienced in dealing with people.
When I arrived, I paid the money to buy the road according to the rules. And seeing that these so-called bandits were actually a group of poorly dressed miners, for the sake of future convenience, I gave them a few extra coins and exchanged polite greetings. It was considered a good relationship.
.
I didn't think much about it after I came back, but I didn't know that one of the few guys I brought with me included Zhang Youfeng's son, Zhang Bao.
Li Yifu was overjoyed after receiving the news. It was a God-given opportunity. He asked Zhang Bao to go to the county to report secretly, saying that Lin Dongping was suspected of collaborating with bandits and would be brought to the county for investigation.
In this way, Lin Dongping was inexplicably taken to the county jail. This was not the end of the story. Immediately, Lin Yun and Lin Donghai were also summoned by the county. There was no news about the two after they entered.
Then Li Yifu also asked people to spread rumors in the county, saying that these bandits were not ordinary people, but red bandits who had made a lot of trouble recently. Originally, Fuyuan Company and Lin Yun and his son had many friends who wanted to explore and intercede. I heard that they were with
If the Red Bandits were related, they all quickly ceased their activities and did not dare to say anything. These days, anyone who has anything to do with the Red Bandits has lost his family and his family. Who dares to defend them? If you throw off the hat of a Red Bandit comrade, who will
Can you bear it?
After Zhou Jinghai got the news, he became anxious. He forced himself to stay in bed due to the cold for many days. He prepared a lot of gifts and went to the county magistrate to understand the situation and intercede for Lin Yun. Originally, the relationship between the Zhou family and the county magistrate was good.
After all, every year's worth of filial piety is so valuable that even a beast has to be fed to maturity.
But after meeting the county magistrate, Zhou Jinghai knew that he was blind and that this beast was just a white-eyed wolf. Even if he said anything about a case involving a red bandit, he could not be released until the provincial government sent someone to investigate.
At that time, Zhou Jinghai didn't know that this was a "drag" tactic. He became vigilant and was thinking about who the enemy would be. The words of the white-eyed wolf county magistrate finally defeated him.
"I said, Boss Zhou, do you still have time to worry about this? There is news about the fact that you entrusted the county to help you find your son through ** channels. Hey! You are so sick now, I am hesitant whether I should treat you
Say it……"
When Zhou Jinghai walked out of the county magistrate's house in a daze, he felt that the sky was blindingly white, and even the pavement under his feet was white. The intermittent voice of the county magistrate was still echoing in his head, "... serving as a soldier in Henan... July
He died in battle... his body..."
"Awen is dead! My beloved son is dead!" It felt like the sky was falling... Zhou Jinghai spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the sky on the street...
When Zhou Jinghai woke up again, he was already sleeping on his bed. The room was dark, and the doors and windows were closed. He called weakly a few times, but no one answered. Now his head has sobered up. He knows that this is
Someone was plotting to kill him. He first arrested Lin Yun and his son, and then took advantage of his illness to crush himself physically and mentally. Hehe! What a plan.
In the past two years, my mind has been focused on finding my son, and I have lost the vigilance I should have.
Who is the enemy?
County Magistrate Baiyanlang must be involved, but he is not the mastermind. Who has such courage and strength? There is only one answer - Li Yifu, it is him. He has strength, courage, and motivation. I heard that his family's mine encountered
**It’s annoying, Dashunlai Company is almost out of business.
Zhou Jinghai is worthy of being a veteran in shopping malls, and he thought things through in an instant. So there is also a mole in the family. Zhang Youfeng, it can only be him. The Lin family has been in jail, and now he has the ability to drive away his servants
It's just him. This is not only seeking wealth, but also killing lives.
Then the story of Awen's death in the battle should not be taken seriously. It was still his fault that he was too eager to get into their trap easily.
You have to live, you have to live a little. Don't eat the food they send (if you think too much, they won't give you food at all.)
Water? Yes, water can survive.
Zhou Jinghai struggled to look around and found that the basin of water he used to wash his face before leaving was still on the ground. It seemed that his servant Huang Ma had been ordered out by Zhang Youfeng before she could clean up. The desire to survive and his son were still alive.
Zhou Jinghai's judgment made Zhou Jinghai's weak body gain strength, and he hid the basin of water under the bed with great effort. Then he saw the plate of snacks placed on the bedside table before, and hid it under the bed...
Relying on a basin of wash water and a dozen snacks, Zhou Jinghai survived for ten days. After that, he couldn't bear it anymore and finally passed out. But his strong desire to survive supported him and he refused to take his last breath--
He wants to gamble his life with God.
Just when Li Yifu couldn't stand it anymore and was about to order Zhang Youfeng to use small tricks, Zhou Wen came back...
Through Zhang Youfeng's confession, Zhou Wen learned that his cousin Wang Chenghao, who was sent to visit by his uncle, was also imprisoned. No wonder there was no news from him for more than a week.
Through oral confession and his own inference, Zhou Wen made everything clear. The excitement, heartache, anger, hatred and other emotions he felt after seeing his father in the morning have calmed down. Now he feels calm.
Looking at his group of red-eyed and angry team members, Zhou Wen said softly and without a trace of emotion: "Brothers have seen and heard it. This is called 'people who are good will be bullied, and horses who are good will be ridiculed'"
. I want to run Lishi County as our base camp. In a year or two, those relatives in Ertang Village, Henan Province will be brought here to live. From now on, we can only have the final say in Lishi County.
There is a voice. Starting tonight, let us first establish our authority. These beasts who seek my property and harm my relatives are the best targets for establishing our authority."
