Seeing that Chen Ermei had agreed, Xu Jingui then told her what to do next.
"From now on, every time you go to buy groceries, go to the house we just went to and find Scarface. If he needs any goods, he'll let you know a day in advance."
"Then you come over to Uncle Zhuang and the others, and tell them what kind of goods Scarface wants and how much."
"Uncle Zhuang and his men will prepare the goods. You can bring Scarface and his men to pick them up in the evening or afternoon."
"As for the payment, you don't need to worry about that. You just need to report the quantity to them and guide them."
"Did you understand?"
Chen Ermei listened very carefully, and after hearing it, she was not so afraid anymore. In fact, she was just a messenger.
He nodded seriously: "I understand. I'll just be responsible for relaying their messages."
That makes sense; she was indeed just a messenger. Now that she's resolved things here, things will be much easier from now on.
Xu Weimin has only been on Scarface's path for a few years, but he got promoted in the last two years.
He didn't dare to visit Scarface too often, and later he got help from Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu.
However, they also knew that it would be troublesome if others found out about this, so they would always underreport the quantity to Xu Zhuang.
This led to increasing dissatisfaction among both Scarface and Xu Zhuang's people.
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't do without Xu Weimin as a middleman, and they weren't afraid of his retaliation, they probably would have kicked him out long ago and gone it alone.
From the moment Chen Ermei entered the house, Xu Weimin had already decided that he would let her take the lead from now on.
In that case, even if they are arrested, as long as there is no direct evidence to prove that he was involved, his whole family will be safe.
......
After Xu Weiguo and the others returned home, he called Xu Junhui into his study.
Huang Qinqin, Zhang Yumei, and Xu Fang were discussing what would be the best way to cook pickled bamboo shoots.
In the study
“You saw your third uncle and the others today. The village chief said they go back to Xujia Village every month. I think we should be able to find something by starting our investigation here.”
"I suspect he's most likely involved in black market trading, and maybe he's raising poultry on the mountain with other people."
“If you don’t raise poultry yourself, then you hunt in the mountains and sell them on the black market.”
When Xu Weiguo returned, he kept thinking about why Xu Weimin would go back to Xujia Village every month.
If it's because Grandpa and Grandma Xu want to go back, that doesn't make sense either. If they wanted to go back, they could just go back and stay for ten or eight days.
There's no need to go back for a day or two every now and then. At most, it's just to make an appointment with someone to do a transaction, and that's enough.
Considering Xu Weimin's consistent style, Xu Weiguo felt that speculation and profiteering were the most likely explanation.
He had heard about it when Xu Jingui got married, even though they held the banquet at home.
However, they used a lot of meat to entertain their guests, and at the time, Xu Weiguo simply thought that Xu Weimin had used connections.
It now seems that it's probably because he has connections with people in the black market, or he might even be the one directly supplying the goods, so of course he wouldn't be short of meat.
Xu Junhui also felt that this was very likely: "Indeed, look at Xu Jingui, how fat he has become in the last few years."
"Although Uncle San's salary is high, his monthly meat and grain ration coupons are fixed."
"Many times, even if you have money, you can't necessarily buy meat. If it weren't for other means, you would never have gotten this fat."
"Even for me, at most I can only occasionally get some meat from the meat processing plant that doesn't require ration coupons; no one else can give me more."
The two men reached a consensus, and Xu Weiguo stated his idea: "Then it will be like this..."
Xu Junhui nodded. He didn't have any better ideas for the time being, so he would follow this method.
......
Huang Jianjun and Huang Jianguo spent the entire night at the hospital last night without taking a shower or changing their clothes.
The hospital provides hot water, but you still need to bring your own towels and basins.
Neither Huang Jianguo nor Huang Jianjun had ever been hospitalized, so they had no idea that the hospital would provide such care.
By the time they found out, it was already very late, so they decided to make do for the night and go home to get it the next morning.
So the first thing Huang Jianjun did after waking up this morning was to help Huang Jianguo to the toilet.
Then I rushed home to get my clothes and towel.
When he got home, Chen Zhaodi's porridge had just been cooked and they were eating it. He planned to give it to them after they had finished eating.
"Second brother, why are you back so early? We were just about to go out to get breakfast for you."
Huang Jianjun looked at their bowls, which were full of porridge, and knew they had just started eating.
But Chen Zhaodi said they were "just about to go out," so that's it...
"My older brother and I didn't shower last night, and we couldn't take it anymore, so I came back to take a shower and change my clothes, and also to bring my older brother some clothes and a towel."
Huang Eryuan only looked up for a second when Huang Jianjun came in, and then kept eating breakfast.
Upon hearing his words, she reacted very quickly, saying, "Then go take a shower! You're not afraid of taking a cold shower in this weather."
Huang Jianjun was deeply moved after hearing this; he never expected his father to care about him so much.
Then Huang Eryuan immediately said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid that when you sit down to eat breakfast, you'll make the breakfast smell bad."
Huang Jianjun: ......
He knew it!
When Huang Jianjun came out after taking a shower, they were still eating breakfast, but they had already served him a bowl and let it cool down.
While eating, Chen Zhaodi asked, "Was your brother feeling unwell last night? Did he hurt his leg? Will it affect his ability to drive in the future?"
Will it affect his walking in the future?
After waking up this morning, Chen Zhaodi kept having these questions on her mind.
What if Huang Jianguo becomes lame in the future? He hasn't even gotten married yet!
Cough, cough!
Huang Jianjun nearly choked to death. Chen Zhaodi was quite impressed to see him choke even while eating porridge.
"Mom, you're really overthinking it."
"My brother injured his leg, but he didn't break it. How could it affect his walking and driving?"
Chen Zhaodi felt she wasn't overthinking things: "I'm just scared. If nothing happens, it's fine, but if something does, how will I ever get married!"
Huang Jianjun was also worried that Huang Jianhui would conceal his illness, so he specifically asked the doctor about it yesterday.
"Don't be afraid. I asked the doctor, and he said that my brother didn't break any bones. As long as he recovers well, there won't be any aftereffects."
Huang Eryuan had finished his porridge by then, and said nonchalantly, "See? I told you it was nothing. Yesterday, the boss seemed to be in pretty good spirits."
