Chapter 237 Case on Hold
Xu family in the backyard.
Wang Tiedan and Xu Damao were drinking wine and eating seafood, looking very comfortable.
It’s not that the food is so delicious, but that what’s happening outside is so interesting.
"Has everything been arranged over there?" Wang Tiedan asked while peeling shrimps.
"They are doing this for the whole village, and every family can benefit from it. There will definitely be no problem. With 1,500 yuan, the whole village can have a good year. I call this sacrificing my own family for the sake of everyone, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, haha."
“It’s also called robbing the rich to help the poor!”
"Absolutely. Besides, there is a rule that says you can't hold everyone responsible, and there is another rule that says once the payment is settled, we won't be responsible at all. As long as you insist that the goods are genuine, you can't do anything to them!"
"You have to be prepared to deal with it. Liu Haizhong is not smart enough and can't do it, but Yan Bugui is not necessarily the case. This old guy likes to calculate and he will figure it out sooner or later." Wang Tiedan reminded.
Xu Damao took a sip of wine and waved his hand indifferently.
"Why should I care about that? Anyway, I told them that there is no medicine, no medicine, but they just didn't listen. It's none of my business.
Besides, it wasn't me who cheated them. I even reminded them that the medicine was fake. If the two of them really took it as a gift and the big shot got something for nothing, it wouldn't just be a matter of losing a few hundred dollars. They would have to thank me!"
"Yeah, that makes sense! You might as well not remind me."
"It would be a bit too harsh not to remind you. There's not much of a grudge, right?"
“Haha, that’s right!”
While the two were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
"Da Mao, I'm the second uncle, I have something to ask you."
Xu Damao and Wang Tiedan exchanged glances, confused as to what was going on.
Why is Liu Haizhong here to find Xu Damao instead of staying at home to lick his wounds?
"Wait a moment!"
Xu Damao hesitated for a moment, then immediately got up and opened the door.
Liu Haizhong weighed his belly and walked into the house with a wry smile on his face.
"Hey, are you guys eating?"
"Yes, Second Uncle, what are you doing?"
"You won't let me sit down?"
Liu Haizhong looked at the seafood and food on the table and couldn't help swallowing.
"Okay, come on, take a seat."
Xu Damao was a little reluctant, but he still moved the stool.
Wang Tiedan didn't intend to pay attention to him. He just kept eating crabs without even raising his head.
Liu Haizhong sat down at the table. He wanted to eat but there were no bowls or chopsticks. It was not appropriate to ask for food, so he could only rub his hands and give a hint.
Xu Damao pretended not to see it and continued to ask: "Second Uncle, what do you want to talk to me about? Tell me."
Seeing that Xu Damao had no intention of keeping him for dinner, Liu Haizhong could only say angrily, "Da Mao, this is it. It's New Year's Day, and I want to visit Director Li. I know you're going too. Can we be companions?"
"Okay, I'll be there on the 29th, and I'll call you then."
"Twenty-nine? You're in such a hurry? I was thinking of going on the first or second day of the New Year."
"Leaders are very busy and have their own things to do. As subordinates, we are busy before or after the New Year. We cannot delay the leaders' work. This is the rule."
"I learned it, I learned it. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known it."
Liu Haizhong silently remembered it in his heart and continued to ask: "Da Mao, when you visit Director Li, what do you give him?"
"Local specialties, vermicelli, game, and at most some candy, to give leaders an extra dish for the New Year, and save them from having to buy more."
"Oh, I thought you were going to give me that medicine."
Liu Haizhong wanted to buy the medicine directly from Xu Damao, even if it cost him a little more money.
Xu Damao smiled and started Versailles.
"I don't need it. I've already sent several boxes to Director Li. With our relationship, there's no need to be so polite. Do you believe it or not, Director Li's return gift is definitely more than what I sent?"
"Xinxin, Damao, you are capable."
A wry smile appeared in Liu Haizhong, and he was both envious and jealous of the relationship between Xu Damao and Li Huaide.
"Da Mao, I want to ask you, when did you ask, there is no medicine over there?"
"It was about a week ago. But you can go ask again. Maybe there really is one. Remember this time. Go straight after entering the village and go to the third house from the end before leaving the village."
"I'll remember this time. The police station will be there to investigate tomorrow, so I'll stop by to take a look."
"Ok!"
After the two finished chatting, the scene fell into awkwardness.
Liu Haizhong looked at the table full of seafood and snacks, and wished Xu Damao could stay for a while. He would definitely not be polite.
But judging from the situation, Xu Damao was about to stand up and see the guest off.
Liu Haizhong was not thick-skinned enough. He glanced at the silent Wang Tiedan and could only leave the house in frustration.
the next day.
Wang Tiedan got up early and first went to Grandpa Ni's house, then to grandma's house, and asked them to pack up in advance.
Then he rushed to the logistics department of the steel rolling mill to take a look.
Two heavy trucks were parked in front of the warehouse, and people from the logistics department were loading grain onto the trucks.
This is used to exchange fish for meat.
Wang Tiedan said hello to the driver, threw the bicycle into the truck bed, and then went to the purchasing department to ask for leave, and was busy all the time.
In the purchasing department, Li Huaide and Director Wang from the street office were there, as well as Zhong Youcai, several section chiefs of the purchasing department, the accountant and a host of other people, all of whom seemed to be waiting for Wang Tiedan.
The news about the fish has been circulating for several days and everyone is looking forward to it.
When they saw Wang Tiedan come in, several people immediately looked over.
"Wang Tiedan, that's your hometown and everyone there is familiar to you. When you get there, you have to help out a lot and make sure the catch is loaded onto the truck smoothly." Li Huaide said first.
"Don't worry, Director Li. I will coordinate everything. Secretary Zhao of Mujiatun is a real man. Since he has promised, I will definitely provide more than enough. If there is a real shortage of stock, I will go to all the villages around the reservoir to make up for the shortage."
Li Huaide and Director Wang were both very happy to hear what Wang Tiedan said.
"Okay, I feel relieved with your words. The factory and the street have sent accountants to settle the accounts on the spot, and we will never let the villagers suffer any loss.
As for the mountain products from Dawang Village, take as many as you can and load them onto the car. Please don’t hesitate to take it.”
"Yes, Tiedan, please send some of the prey caught in your village to the street. The street will buy them at a high price and will take as many as you can." Director Wang also hurriedly responded.
"If there is any, I will definitely load it onto the truck, and then Director Li and Director Wang can divide it among yourselves."
"Okay, it's getting late. You should leave early and try to come back early. Director Wang and I will be waiting for your good news."
"it is good!"
Wang Tiedan handed in his request for leave, got on a truck with two accountants and four security guards, and left the steel mill under the gaze of Li Huaide and Director Wang.
The truck stopped at the gate of 101 Hospital.
Wang Tiedan hurriedly picked up his grandmother, Grandpa Ni, his younger sister, and Qin Jingru into the car, and with the help of security personnel, he loaded the seafood and set off again.
Qin Jingru is also going back to her hometown and will be back after the New Year. Her car will pass through Changping on the way, so she can give her a ride.
On the surface, nothing happened when they left, but in fact, it caused great suffering to Yi Zhonghai.
The police station had to re-investigate according to procedure, but Yi Zhonghai insisted that Wang Tiedan was framing him, so the police station had to find Wang Tiedan to find out the situation.
When the police arrived at the courtyard, they found out that Wang Tiedan had returned to his hometown.
During the Chinese New Year, everyone is very busy, especially the police station.
They couldn't afford to waste two police officers to go to Dawang Village just for a minor hooliganism incident. The round trip would take at least two days.
So the police station unanimously decided to put the case on hold and keep the person in custody until Wang Tiedan came back.
