Chapter 928 Bonus
Qi Tongwei began to ask around for clues about this mysterious force. He discovered that there was indeed a huge criminal organization behind Wang Meng, which involved multiple fields, including real estate, finance, entertainment, etc. They accumulated wealth through various illegal means and controlled the local economy and politics.
In order to collect evidence, Qi Tongwei found Zhao Yang again. Zhao Yang said that he had also been paying attention to this organization, but this organization was very cunning and it was difficult to find evidence of their crimes. However, he recently got an important clue that this organization had a secret base in the suburbs, which might hide some key documents.
Qi Tongwei decided to take the risk and go to the base to find out what was going on. On a dark and windy night, he and Zhao Yang sneaked into the base with simple equipment. The base was silent, with only a few dim lights flickering. They carefully searched every room and finally found a safe in a basement.
Qi Tongwei and Zhao Yang took great pains to open the safe. There were indeed some documents inside, which recorded in detail the criminal activities of the organization, including bribery, money laundering, illegal transactions, etc. Qi Tongwei was very excited, because he knew that these documents were enough to deal a heavy blow to this criminal organization.
However, just as they were about to leave, they suddenly heard footsteps outside. It turned out that their actions were discovered. Qi Tongwei and Zhao Yang immediately hid and prepared to deal with the impending danger.
A group of armed men rushed into the basement and searched everywhere. Qi Tongwei and Zhao Yang held their breath and dared not make any sound. Just when they thought they were about to be discovered, Zhao Yang suddenly accidentally knocked over something, making a crisp sound.
"Who's there? Come out!" shouted a leader.
Qi Tongwei knew that he could no longer escape, so he and Zhao Yang stood up at the same time, ready to fight to the death with each other.
"How dare you come here!" the leader said viciously, "None of you will get out alive today."
Qi Tongwei and Zhao Yang stood back to back, looking at each other warily. Although they knew they were at a disadvantage, they had no intention of backing down.
When the two sides were at a stalemate, they suddenly heard a siren outside. It turned out that Zhao Yang had contacted the police before leaving, and if there was any danger, the police would come to support immediately.
When the criminals heard the sirens, they panicked and began to flee, but were soon captured by the police. Qi Tongwei and Zhao Yang also left the base safely.
This operation allowed Qi Tongwei and Zhao Yang to successfully collect key evidence of the criminal organization. Based on this evidence, the police launched a comprehensive crackdown on the organization. After a period of investigation and pursuit, this huge criminal organization was finally completely destroyed.
With the destruction of the criminal organization, the social environment in Qingshan Village and the surrounding areas has been greatly improved. Qi Tongwei was also commended and rewarded by the government for his outstanding performance in this incident.
After experiencing a series of upheavals, Qi Tongwei can finally devote himself to the construction of Qingshan Village.
The sun shone warmly on him, but his mind was far away. After the criminal organization was destroyed and he was commended by the government, he thought he could devote himself to the construction of Qingshan Village without any worries, but the reality was far from that simple.
"Tongwei, how are the seedlings growing?" The village party secretary Lao Wang walked over with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face, but there seemed to be something else hidden in that smile.
Qi Tongwei straightened up and patted the dirt off his hands. "Secretary Wang, it looks OK, but the initial investment is not small, and the subsequent sales channels need to be considered."
Lao Wang came closer and lowered his voice, "Tongwei, I heard that the town is planning to build an agricultural product processing factory. If we can get in touch with them, won't it be hard to sell these wild fruits? But... you also know that these days, you can't do things without some "expression". "
Qi Tongwei frowned, "Secretary Wang, do we have to take these crooked paths to do things for the village? Wasn't the crackdown on criminal organizations before just to allow the village to develop cleanly?"
Old Wang chuckled, "You are still too young. Things in this world are not that simple. If we don't use some tricks, how can we get the benefits in Qingshan Village?"
Qi Tongwei didn't say anything, but he looked at the fruit seedlings and felt unhappy. He thought about how he had come all this way to bring hope to this poor mountain valley, but he felt like he had fallen into another invisible quagmire.
As the days passed, the fruit trees gradually grew taller, but Qi Tongwei felt more and more tired. In order to win the project of the agricultural product processing plant, the village spent more and more on entertaining guests and giving gifts, and every time he raised objections, Lao Wang rejected them on the grounds that it was "for the development of the village."
At the same time, the blue-green bird habitat that was highly anticipated was also in trouble. Some people in the village, driven by profit, secretly caught birds and sold them to the flower and bird market in the city. When Qi Tongwei found out, he was furious. He went door to door to persuade them, but some people agreed on the surface but continued to do as they pleased.
"How could you do this? These birds are part of our village's ecology. If we catch them all, what will Qingshan Village have in the future?" Qi Tongwei said with deep sorrow at the villagers' meeting.
A villager muttered quietly: "Tongwei, you talk nicely, but catching a few birds can sell for a lot of money, and the schooling of our children depends on this income."
Qi Tongwei was speechless. He knew very well that life was not easy for the villagers, but such short-sighted behavior would only make the future of Qingshan Village even bleaker.
The land planted with red flowers also did not escape the disaster. Due to the lack of scientific planting technology and management, and the fact that some villagers privately misappropriated funds that should have been used for fertilization and irrigation, the growth of red flowers was worrying. Looking at the flowers that were gradually withering, Qi Tongwei felt powerless.
On a quiet night, Qi Tongwei came to the old tree at the entrance of the village alone, looking at the starry sky, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He recalled his determination and passion in fighting against criminal organizations. The goal at that time was so clear, but now he is encountering obstacles everywhere on the road to building Qingshan Village. He began to reflect on whether his understanding of interests was too simple from the beginning, thinking that as long as the criminal organizations were eradicated, a beautiful Qingshan Village would be ushered in, but he ignored the greed and short-sightedness of human nature for interests.
As time went on, the problems in Qingshan Village became more serious. The project of the agricultural product processing factory was exposed because of the unfair competition methods of the village. Not only did it fail to be negotiated, but it also caused the reputation of the village to plummet.
