Chapter 134 Can't I take this opportunity to find you?
Several sturdy young men sat on stone chairs holding farm tools, looking around with serious expressions.
"Ah, you're finally back!" One of them saw Yu Zhile and the others and trotted over. "The Party Secretary, the team leader, and Brother Tai are not in the village. The village cadres said they are waiting for you to handle it."
"What's wrong?" Yu Zhile glanced at the people who were tied up tightly.
After their hands and feet were tied, they were tied to the tree trunk with a long hemp rope. Each of them had a rag stuffed in their mouth, causing them to make stammering sounds.
The man replied: "They were sneaking around the center of the village. When they saw us, they ran away, so we arrested them first."
Tomorrow is the day to build the breeding raft. After discussion, the village cadres decided to advance the rest day so that the whole village can help together tomorrow, so they called everyone back home from the fields.
At first, they thought these people were relatives, but they ran away as if they saw a ghost. So a group of people chased them for half a mile with hoes and finally caught them.
Since the people in charge were usually not there, everyone discussed sending someone to guard the place and then discuss how to deal with it when they came back.
"Len Ni, Xin Ni, you have great ideas. How should we deal with this?" Aunt Zhang was the first person to hear the voice, and she immediately called the neighbors to come out.
Gradually, more and more people gathered around the banyan tree, and everyone asked the same question.
"Let's listen to what they say first." Yu Zhile looked at the onlookers and pulled the rag out of someone's mouth.
Seeing the gangster looks of those people, she had some guesses in her mind and immediately decided to make a big fuss.
"Who are you? What are you doing in our village?" Yu Zhile asked.
The little gangster didn't answer her question, but threatened her fiercely: "Let us go quickly, my boss is not a joke, you will regret it later."
His words confirmed Yu Zhile's guess that the person behind the scenes wanted to get something for nothing, so he first used money to buy the formula and then sent someone to steal the money back.
"I asked you what you are doing in our village." Yu Zhile snatched the wooden stick from the person next to him and swung it hard at his abdomen.
The little rascal groaned as his forehead instantly broke out in cold sweat, but he was unable to curl up to relieve the pain.
"Speak." Yu Zhile said coldly.
"Come, let's find Yu Cheng, and..." The little gangster finally recovered, and when he saw her ready to attack, his legs immediately weakened, "They took the 500 yuan from selling the formula, and the boss asked us to take it back."
Everyone recalled what happened in the morning and was shocked.
"No wonder we had to report to the police. It turns out the money came from dirty money." Aunt Zhang condemned, "What a heartless guy. He actually stole the formula and sold it."
Some people agreed with her and cursed together.
Someone asked worriedly: "If the recipe is sold, will it affect our sales of vegetables to state-owned restaurants?"
Their concerns are not without reason. After all, the village has spent manpower and resources to grow vegetables. If they cannot be sold, they will lose a share of income.
"Don't worry, they have a fake formula," Yu Zhile explained. "Zhang Ping and the others came to me as soon as they were threatened. This is a trap we set."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, while the group of hooligans were dumbfounded and even stopped struggling.
Yu Zhile glanced at Zhang Wenxin, and Zhang Wenxin took over the conversation.
"We in Haiyu Village are a big family. We have a common goal, which is to have enough food, water and clothes." She said loudly, "When everyone is working hand in hand towards the goal, some people are dragging the group back for personal gain. Should we condemn it?"
"Should!" the three Zhang brothers shouted in the crowd.
Chen Zhao shouted: "Condemn the traitors!"
Instantly, the others became excited and said in unison: "Yes! Drive them out of the village!"
"Everyone, as long as we work together, we can definitely create many, many 500 yuan, right?" Zhang Wenxin shouted at the top of his voice.
"Yes!" The loud voice echoed throughout Haiyu Village.
The moment the shouting died down, someone muttered, "They didn't go to work today. Maybe they staged a show and ran away with the money."
"What a disgusting thing! He abandoned his wife and children, leaving them as sitting ducks in the village." Aunt Zhang spat and continued to curse, "He is so cruel, he deserves to be reincarnated as a slave in his next life."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Zhang Ping and the others with sympathy.
"They filed for a divorce and want to stay in Haiyu Village to develop a side business with everyone. They will open a separate account later." Yu Zhile immediately seized the opportunity, "I hope everyone will remember their actions of sacrificing their own family for the sake of the collective interest, and we can help each other in the future."
"Of course, we are all family." Chen Zhao went to another place and said in a pinched voice.
Everyone nodded in unison.
"Now, we need ten people to take them to the police station," said Yu Zhile.
Many young people raised their hands to sign up, and eventually the three Zhang brothers led a team, put a few little hooligans on a ox cart, and set off into the city.
The matter came to an end, and everyone dispersed, and the village center returned to the tranquility of a weekend afternoon.
"Sister, did I cooperate well just now?" Chen Zhao ran to Yu Zhile happily.
Zhang Wenxin pushed him away and said in a bad tone, "Your voice almost made me laugh at the end. Come back to claim credit after you've practiced it well."
Seeing that the two were about to start bickering again, Yu Zhile sighed, took out two candies, put them in front of their mouths, and said, "You two have performed very well, so I'll reward you with a piece of candy."
They knew her way of doing things, and from the moment she pulled off the rag that was gagged around the little rascal's mouth, they knew what was going to happen next.
The two took the candies and began to compete secretly, peeling off the candy wrappers anxiously.
Yu Zhile ignored them and distributed the candies and biscuits given by Li Ruyi to Zhang Ping and the other six people, saying, "Go pick up the children and take them home. You can send them to the courtyard to learn to write on weekdays."
"Okay, okay, thank you." The six people thanked repeatedly and walked quickly towards the health center.
Yu Zhile pushed Zhang Wenxin and the other person who were glaring at each other and said, "Go home and rest. There is still a lot to do."
When she raised her eyes, she found Li Ran standing not far away, his expression seemed to be both dazed and surprised.
"Li Zhiqing, I hope you are not scared?" Yu Zhile stepped forward and asked.
Li Ran shook his head slightly: "This is the first time I've seen this kind of scene. I feel a little bit..."
He was unsure of the words and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
Yu Zhile smiled and did not ask any further questions. He took the initiative to change the subject: "How do you feel these days? Are you used to it?"
"Well, Haiyu Village is very nice, the air is fresh, and the villagers are very friendly." Li Ran took over her words.
Yu Zhile smiled and said, "That's good. If you have any other questions, you can go to Chu Yue."
"Can't I find you?" Li Ran said quickly, and then he quickly explained, "Well, I've been communicating with you before, so I'm used to it."
"Chu Yue is in charge of the expert group's affairs for the time being. She can solve all problems well." Yu Zhile responded.
Hearing this, Li Ran smiled politely: "Okay, if there are any problems, I will communicate with her in time."
The two didn't continue chatting, they said goodbye and left.
In the evening, the old party secretary, who had been attending a meeting in the town all day, learned what had happened in the village. He immediately assigned household registration to Zhang Ping and others, and instructed the women's director to go to the commune the next day to get the matter settled.
Then he picked up a loud speaker and walked around the village, warning everyone not to undermine collective interests.
The three Zhang brothers brought back a message to Yu Zhile, saying that the gangsters had been taken away by Ning Tan and the matter would soon have a conclusion.
A busy day is coming to an end. Yu Zhile opened the panel as usual, but the status of the robot butler did not change.
She looked at the small window again. The last batch of braised food was selling very well.
So, she bought another batch of ingredients from the mall, and after simple processing, she threw them into the previous braising pot. At the right time, she took out the braised food and put it into a small warehouse.
Every time he came out of the simulation space, Yu Zhile would sleep extremely soundly, and this time was no exception, he slept until dawn.
"Morning, mother." She yawned and pushed the door open. "Morning, Third Uncle."
Fang Zhuo rubbed his knees, smiled and nodded.
"Did you go to bed very late? Or did you not sleep well? It's getting dark now." Yu Wanqin's face was full of heartache.
Yu Zhile shook his head and replied: "No, I slept well too."
"You must be too tired recently." Yu Wanqin patted the back of her hand. "I read in a book that people in Guangdong Province use medicinal herbs to make soup to nourish their bodies. I'll go ask Doctor Jiang later."
Yu Zhile rubbed her neck and said coquettishly, "Okay, I will definitely finish it."
There was a knock on the door frame from the half-open courtyard door; Li Ran and Yu Chuyue came.
"Le Le, are you ready? It's about to start." Yu Chuyue asked in a clear voice.
Yu Zhile asked the two of them to sit in the yard for a while, then turned around to wash up and followed them out without eating breakfast.
The first fishing team returned with a full load last night, but the second team did not go out to sea today, leaving the boat empty for the rafting team.
Except for the people who went to the market to set up stalls and the fishing team, everyone else was involved, so Yu Zhile and the other two met a lot of people carrying materials on the way.
The children ran around excitedly as if it were New Year’s Day, and the older children who were more sensible would help drag the wood to the shore.
Yu Zhile opened the live broadcast room when he went out, and all the images were transmitted to the monitor on the audience's side.
The audience seemed to be infected by this atmosphere. They were much more excited than usual and posted comments and sent gifts more diligently.
[Wow, it feels like history is repeating itself.]
【I actually had the opportunity to see the process of building facilities by hand, as the elders had said. 】
On the shore, various materials were neatly classified and arranged, and Mr. Chen was counting them with the documents.
After a while, he folded up the list and said to Ge Tai, "The wooden pegs have all arrived, we can start now."
Following Ge Tai's command, a dozen strong men took off their shirts, shouted loud slogans, and worked together to push the wooden pegs tied with floats into the water.
Then, they got on the boat in groups, tied the wooden pegs with ropes, and rowed hard to the designated location.
From a panoramic perspective, the wooden boats left the shore in an orderly manner, like a small fleet.
