Chapter 22: Extracting Surplus Value



Lu Dazhuang is a gambler, and the characteristic of gamblers is that they steal when they have no money.

So even though he had only lived in Lu Shunzhi's house for a few days, he had already figured out where his family hid their money.

But he had just moved in, and Lu Shunzhi and his wife, as well as his grandchildren, all disliked him.

No one treated him well, so he had to be careful to avoid being driven away.

The money had not yet been stolen and used for gambling.

He dug out the purse of money that was tucked away under the kitchen cupboard.

Inside was a gold bracelet, several gold rings, and several gold necklaces.

This is the most precious treasure in Lu Shunzhi's family.

He hesitated for a moment, took out a gold bracelet, put the rest of the things back, and ran out with the gold bracelet in his pocket.

Afraid of being a step late, Shen Lichu followed the police.

He ran to the yard and saw that Chen Lichu was still there, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He took the gold bracelet out of his pocket and stuffed it into Chen Lichu's hand: "Dad has no money now, only this, you can sell it first for money."

"When Dad has more money, I will definitely give you more to make up for the mistakes I made."

Chen Lichu took the bracelet, took a look at it, put it in his pocket, and turned to leave.

Lu Dazhuang grabbed her and said, "Daughter-in-law, do you think what I just told you is okay?"

Chen Lichu glanced at the door, with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face: "I'll think about it."

"Don't think about it. I've already given you this big gold bracelet." Lu Dazhuang hardened his heart and gritted his teeth. "If you do this, I'll go and get the money right away. Just tell me the amount."

Chen Lichu stretched out a finger.

"One thousand? How can I have that much?" Lu Dazhuang's pupils suddenly contracted, his breathing stopped, and his heart skipped a beat.

"You want to kill me."

"I'm already this old, and my wife kicked me out. I've lost my house, my money, and my son..."

As Lu Dazhuang spoke, tears flowed from his cloudy eyes.

"I'm not in a hurry. You can think of a solution slowly." Chen Lichu shook off Lu Dazhuang's hand in disgust and turned away.

In fact, her goal is not just the thousand dollars.

It was only a matter of time before Lu Dazhuang joined Orange, but she had some worries that she needed to resolve first.

If you live your life again, you must deal with the people who need to be dealt with, but you must also save the trouble that needs to be saved.

Lu Dazhuang stood there in a daze, took a long breath, and wiped the tears from his cheeks with his old hands.

Since she wants his money, she doesn't want his life, right?

——

In the police station, Shen Lichu sat opposite the police station chief.

She placed the confession in her pocket on the table and knelt on the ground with a plop. "Director Zhou, everyone says you are the most fair official. You must make the decision for my niece!"

Zhou Zhengzhong was startled by her kneeling like this. He quickly stood up and gave her a light support: "Comrade, please get up quickly. Sit down and talk to me if you have anything to say."

"Director Zhou, I really have no other choice but to come to you for help."

"This person usually bullies others in the village by relying on his connections."

"His second uncle is the village chief of Dahe Village. I heard he has a relative who works at the police station. No one in the village dares to offend him."

"When this happened yesterday, my sister and brother-in-law didn't even dare to call the police for fear of retaliation from him."

"I can't let my niece suffer this kind of injustice."

"But for ordinary people like us at the bottom of society, without any connections, it's very difficult to seek redress for our grievances."

"So I can only come to you and beg you."

"My niece is only 21 years old. If I hadn't arrived in time, her life would have been ruined..."

After Chen Lichu finished speaking, he lay on the table and burst into tears.

In her previous life, ever since this incident happened, there was no light in Jiang Xiaoqing's eyes.

Although she had never told Chen Lichu about this, Chen Lichu knew that she did not commit suicide because she did not want to send her children to hell.

There was no way for Chen Pingchu and Jiang Zhisheng to compromise.

At that time, Liu Guohui's mother's lover had become the director of the police station.

They also knew that calling the police would be suppressed.

And if they do not agree to this marriage, Liu Guohui will never let their family go.

Jiang Xiaoqing's reputation will also be ruined.

Zhou Zhengzhong had already guessed what had happened when he heard what Chen Lichu said.

He picked up the confession on the table and looked at it carefully. The more he looked, the deeper the wrinkles between his eyebrows became.

"Hooliganism is a serious crime."

"First, we'll take a statement, and then we'll verify it. If it's true, this person will definitely be shot."

"As for the retaliation you mentioned, I will also investigate to find out which of our comrades is supporting this criminal suspect!"

"Do you know what that person's name is?" Zhou Zhengzhong asked.

What he hated most in his life was officials who oppressed the people.

Before he retires, he will definitely find this person.

Chen Lichu shook his head: "I don't know, I just know that his surname seems to be... Tan or Han. I heard others mention it, but I didn't hear it clearly."

Of course Chen Lichu knew that the man's name was Han Wenhua, but she couldn't say it too sure.

Zhou Zhengzhong's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a nest of flies.

There is only one person named Han in the entire police station, and he knows who it is very well.

Zhou Zhengzhong suppressed his anger and said, "I understand. I will deal with this matter as soon as possible. You don't have to worry about your safety. We, the people's police, exist to protect the people."

"You can come directly to me if you have anything."

Chen Lichu stood up and was about to kneel again, but Zhou Zhengzhong held him back: "Comrade, this is a new society now. Kneeling to appeal for justice is no longer acceptable."
