Chapter 124 Who instigated it?
After finishing cleaning and returning to the room, Wang Yueju said to Gu Jianguo while making the bed: "That Ye Chi kept looking at Yimin today."
Gu Jianguo hummed. Ye Chi had no intention of hiding it; of course he had seen it too.
Wang Yueju made the bed, took out a half-finished pair of woolen trousers, and sat in bed knitting, muttering, "Everything about her is good, except her family background. Besides, Kyoto is so far away, and if she becomes my daughter, she'll be marrying far away. She's from a wealthy family, and it's so far away. If I get wronged, I'll have no one to tell, no one to support me."
Gu Jianguo went out to pour out the water for washing feet, and came back and said, "It's not even a stroke of the pen."
"Yeah, I don't think Yimin is hot." Wang Yueju said.
Gu Jianguo lay down in bed, "That child knows his limits. If this thing really happens, we can talk about it then. We can't let our child suffer any injustice."
Wang Yueju sighed, she always had so much to worry about.
The next day, Gu Jianguo didn't go to the store, but went to the police station to find Zhu Qingjun. Although Shi Dafa had been driven away by Ye Chi, would he cause trouble again? He had to prevent future troubles.
Zhu Qingjun was not in a hurry. He led Gu Jianguo into his office, poured a glass of water and said with a smile: "The oranges you and Deyi gave me have become a rare commodity in my house. My wife hid them and only gave one to me and my child a day."
Gu Jianguo also laughed, "Tell my sister-in-law that there's no need to do that. Bring back a few boxes next time you go to Shenzhen."
Zhu Qingjun sat down at his desk, leaned forward to close the distance between him and Gu Jianguo, and asked, "Southern fruits are so popular here, why don't you ask Deyi to get some fruit back to sell?"
"No," Gu Jianguo said after taking a sip of water. "Fruit is delicate. It takes several days to get here from the south. If it gets bumped and bruised, it won't look good. It's fine for us to eat, but it's hard to sell. Besides, if we bring too little at once, we won't be able to cover the travel expenses. If we bring too much, it will spoil over time."
He and Han Deyi had considered selling fruit, but after careful consideration, they felt that it was not feasible.
Zhu Qingjun had never done business before and didn't know there were so many tricks involved. He smiled and said, "It seems I'm an outsider."
"If anyone in your family wants to do other business, they can go to Shenzhen with me and Deyi first." Through the conversation just now, Gu Jianguo knew that Zhu Qingjun also wanted to do business.
If you think about it, it’s understandable. The salary of a police station chief is not very high, and everyone wants to live a good life.
"Okay, I'll find you and Deyi then."
Zhu Qingjun did have plans to start a business. He was really jealous of Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi. He didn't know how much they made, but seeing how they bought houses as soon as they said they would, and how generous they were in giving out gifts and meals, he knew they were making money.
Besides, his sister Zhu Qingfen, who sells goods from Gu Jianguo's shop, earns a month's salary in one day. How can this not be exciting?
"What are you doing here today?" Zhu Qingjun asked Gu Jianguo.
"Do you know Shi Dafa?" Gu Jianguo asked.
Zhu Qingjun frowned. "Why are you asking about him? Did he cause you trouble?"
Gu Jianguo nodded and recounted what happened last night. He then added, "I'm just afraid he'll cause trouble again in the future."
Zhu Qingjun's focus now wasn't Shi Dafa, but the soldier friend Gu Jianguo had mentioned. A soldier who could carry a gun was definitely not an ordinary soldier, or even an ordinary officer. Gu Jianguo actually knew such a person.
He thought this in his heart, but said aloud, "A few years ago, Shi Dafa was a bully in Lizhou. Later, because he offended the then chairman of the Revolutionary Committee, he was caught and sentenced. He was just released from prison last year and now reports to our office every month. But he knows nothing about business. Why did he think of robbing your store?"
Gu Jianguo told him about Zhou Rongrong again. Zhu Qingjun said, "Well, wait a moment. I'll have someone bring him over for questioning."
Gu Jianguo knew that Zhu Qingjun had asked him to stay because he wanted Shi Dafa to know that they were close friends. If Shi Dafa was smart, he wouldn't bother him again. Even the most ruthless local tyrants were afraid of someone in uniform, especially Zhu Qingjun, the director of a police station.
Gu Jianguo remembered Zhu Qingjun's favor.
The police station often keeps an eye on people like Shi Dafa who had just been out of prison. So they quickly found him and brought him to the station. Seeing Gu Jianguo and Zhu Qingjun chatting and laughing in the reception room, Shi Dafa knew he had really hit a wall last night.
Boss Gu not only knows military officers who can carry guns when they go out, but also knows the police station chief, both of whom are his nemesis.
"Director Zhu, Boss Gu," Shi Dafa bent over and smiled at the two of them. "It's really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. I didn't recognize Mount Tai. Boss Gu, please forgive me."
People like Shi Dafa have been around all kinds of people, so they can naturally bend and stretch themselves.
Gu Jianguo didn't say anything. Zhu Qingjun asked, "How come I didn't know when you would start doing business?"
Shi Dafa smiled flatteringly and said, "How could I be a businessman? It was my lover, no, my girlfriend, my girlfriend Zhou Rongrong, who persuaded me, I don't know who, to say that Boss Gu's business was doing well and that if we gave the shop to... us, we could also make money. I was just a soft-hearted person, so I just listened to him."
Shi Dafa bowed to Gu Jianguo again and said, "Boss Gu, I'm so sorry. If you have any questions in the future, just tell me and I will do my best to help you."
"Is there anything I can do with you?" Zhu Qingjun said, "Go back and ask your partner who instigated her."
"Yes, yes, Director Zhu, even if you don't tell me, I will ask her when I get back. You bitch, you always make trouble for me." Shi Dafa was now also blaming Zhou Rongrong.
"Okay, just give Jianguo a reply tomorrow." Zhu Qingjun waved his hand and let Shi Dafa go. Since there was no fight yesterday, he naturally had no way to catch him.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Gu Jianguo invited Zhu Qingjun to dinner, and the two exchanged feelings over the table. On the way back, Gu Jianguo told himself that next time he went to Shenzhen, he should bring back more fruits and give them to Zhu Qingjun.
Shi Dafa did not go home after leaving the police station, but went directly to Zhou Rongrong's house.
Zhou Rongrong lived in a large compound on the outskirts of Lizhou. It wasn't a big compound, but it housed more than a dozen families. Zhou Rongrong's room was only three square meters, leaving no room for a bed.
When Shi Dafa knocked on the door, she was sleeping in the room. When she heard the sound, she leaned over the window and looked out. Seeing that it was Shi Dafa, she quickly got out of bed and opened the door.
"Dafa, why are you here? Come in quickly."
Shi Dafa followed her into the house. Zhou Rongrong happily asked him to sit down, but before she could say anything, Shi Dafa slapped her in the face.
"Tell me, who told you that the Gu family's store was profitable and instigated you to let me rob his store and let you open it?"
