According to the information that Fatty had found, the Sanniu case had remained unresolved in history until 1990, when it was brought to light by another economic case.

In 1990, the nationwide anti-FU movement began, and the educational and learning atmosphere of this movement also blew into the prison walls.

An accountant at a pharmaceutical factory was sentenced to 27 years for adultery during the crackdown campaign in the 1980s. In order to get a reduced sentence, he reported the former head of the purchasing department of the pharmaceutical factory.

During the investigation, the Discipline Inspection Commission and the police discovered that the head of the procurement department had huge problems with procurement, including a purchase of bezoar involving a considerable amount of money.

The police found that this batch of bezoar had no proof of origin and even the invoice was fake.

The police quickly tracked down the private dealer who provided the bezoar, but they did not expect that this person would subconsciously jump out of the window and escape after hearing the police mention the batch of bezoar.

Unfortunately, his two legs could not run faster than the tricycle. With the help of the big memory recovery technique, the private dealer finally confessed to the crimes he committed in Shuangma Commune, H County at the end of 1981.

With the ideas for solving the case provided by Zhang Hongcheng, Guo Tao immediately organized the backbones of the police station to re-check the registration records of the guesthouses in the two towns and communes of H County.

Soon, a man named Li Xiang came into Guo Tao's sight.

Li Xiang is from the provincial capital. He used to be one of the purchasing agents of a pharmaceutical factory, but was later fired for speculation.

He was a Chinese medicine dealer and had passed through H County several times to purchase medicinal materials from neighboring counties.

According to subsequent visits, it was learned that Li Xiang had indeed come to Shuangma Commune before the incident, and the old breeder was indeed very familiar with Li Xiang.

In the 1980s, when handling cases, people didn't pay much attention to the necessary procedures and evidence of later generations. Once the investigation reached this point, they could start arresting people.

When Guo Tao led his men straight to the provincial capital to capture the man, and found a large amount of bezoar in the man's home, Li Xiang's mentality collapsed and he confessed everything.

As early as half a year before the incident, the old breeder of Shuangma Commune met Li Xiang who was passing by H County through an acquaintance.

It turned out that ever since the old cow fell ill, the old breeder had been afraid to call a veterinarian, for fear that the company accountant, with whom he was not on good terms, would propose to replace him.

So the old man went around in circles and found Li Xiang, who boasted that he could treat livestock.

In fact, Li Xiang had no idea how to treat animals, but he still went to Shuangma Commune to take a look for the sake of three packs of good cigarettes.

It was with this one glance that he saw everything that happened next.

As a former pharmaceutical factory buyer and now a medicinal material dealer, he could tell at a glance that bezoar had begun to form in the old cow's body!

But according to his experience, the best time to pick this bezoar is half a year later.

Li Xiang did not have the ability to help the old breeder cure the livestock, but he taught him a recipe to conceal the old cow's illness.

Half a year later, Li Xiang excitedly came to H County again and quietly found the old breeder.

When everyone was drunk, the old breeder started to curse the breeders from Lanshan Commune.

The implicit meaning of the words was to blame the other breeder for wanting to take the borrowed cow back every few days, and to mock him for not knowing how to raise cows, which resulted in the cows becoming sick.

"I, the old man, made a statement a few days ago. If I'm displeased, those two cows won't have a good time!"

Li Xiang just joined in the curses at the time, and only when he had almost finished drinking did he speak directly to the old breeder about his suggestion to extract the bezoar from the old cow.

The old breeder had no idea about the market price of bezoar and did not know that bezoar, like gold, was priced by the gram.

They took out seven hundred yuan!

Seven hundred yuan!

The old breeder was moved as expected.

But when the two men led the old cow out and were about to start, the old cow, which had been raised by the old breeder for more than ten years, actually knelt down to the old breeder with tears in its eyes.

The old breeder immediately burst into tears and refused to kill the cow no matter what.

Seeing that the ox gallstones he had obtained were about to fly away, Li Xiang suddenly felt scared when he thought about the value of these ox gallstones.

He secretly put the drug used to induce animal detoxification into the old breeder's wine.

He took the old cow away while the old breeder was confused.

But unexpectedly, the old breeder stumbled out and chased after him, but he lost his balance and fell into the ditch next to him.

Li Xiang stood coldly by the ditch, watching the limp old breeder slowly drown in the ditch.

Before leaving, he thought of the drunken words the old breeder had said before. In order to divert the police's attention, he returned to the cowshed and killed the two oxen that Lanshan Commune had loaned to Shuangma Commune, and took away the most delicious piece of the two oxen.

He threw the beef into the river, took the sick cow to the mountains, killed it to get medicine, and then buried it on the spot.

On September 25th, in a valley at the border of Shuangma Commune and Lanshan Commune in H County.

The surrounding fields and hilltops were filled with people who came to watch the fun.

Several policemen escorted a man in his forties to identify the scene.

When the militia dug out the broken old cow's trunk at the location pointed by the man, the eyes of all the people present were red.

"Stab him to death!"

“Hit him!”

Three cows and a human life, plus the injured hands in the fight between the two sides. If Guo Tao had not had the foresight to request two militia platoons from other communes, Li Xiang would have had more than just a leg broken on the spot.

With the Sanniu case solved, and the county government mediating, Shuangma Commune and Lanshan Commune also chose to reconcile.

The last unfavorable factor affecting the overall labor export in the county was also eliminated. Although the county government was reluctant, it still passed the proposal to increase the staff of the Public Security Bureau by 25 and the expenses by 50,000 under the strong suggestion of Zhang Hongcheng.
