Chapter 284 What distinguished guest?
Ma Youguang wanted to show his face, but he didn't know that all his actions had been seen by Luo Jiu and others. He didn't show his face, but his butt was exposed.
That day, Ma Youguang's secretary came out to explain that the message was conveyed incorrectly and that there was indeed no charge. Those who registered that day should go to the government office building to line up and the fees would be refunded to everyone.
Luo Jiu and his companions planned to go back to Boss Ye's place to have some rest first. As soon as they arrived at the hotel, Ma Youguang's secretary and his companions chased them to the door.
The people from the police station slammed their guns on the table and looked at them fiercely.
The secretary sneered and said, "Have you seen a gun?"
The four of them looked at each other and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Luo Jiu coughed lightly and said, "I've never seen one. I've never touched a gun in my life."
The secretary snorted complacently, "I'm sorry that you are young and ignorant and don't know how to write the word death. County Magistrate Ma will show some leniency and not bother with you.
But remember, leave Yi County as soon as possible, don't ask around, and don't talk to anyone casually.
There may be distinguished guests coming to the county in a few days, so keep your mouths shut or I'll put you in jail, understand?"
Zhong Jialing asked curiously: "What distinguished guest?"
"I'll scare you to death if I tell you, President Luo, Marshal Feng, do you know?"
"The two of them?" Zhong Jialing glanced at Luo Jiu and Feng Qi with a smile, "I know them. I'm familiar with them."
"Ah?" The secretary was so frightened that she immediately put down the tea bowl, "Are you related to them?"
Zhong Jialing chuckled and said, "I want to say that I always see them in the newspapers. I am familiar with them, but they are not familiar with me."
The secretary was teased by Zhong Jialing's jokes and left impatiently.
Everyone returned to the room, and Lu Qingyun said, "When I came here just now, I saw that there was an interrogation checkpoint at the city gate. Do you want me to call the General Office now and ask the investigation team to come down overnight?"
"No, I've changed my mind." Luo Jiu said, "Ma Youguang has been in this position for so long, he must have a strong sense of risk. He is using the checkpoints now, and when the investigation team arrives, he will only be more cautious, which will make it difficult to investigate.
Why don't we check it ourselves? In his eyes, we are just a few nosy female students.
Let's disguise ourselves and find someone who knows the inside story tomorrow to find out who is behind him."
The next morning, the group squeezed into the crowd queuing for refunds in front of the office building and asked around.
Feng Qi was so crowded that his brows were frowned. He turned around and came out with a helpless look on his face.
When the few people met, Luo Jiu asked hurriedly: "What did you find out?"
Feng Qi said: "There are all kinds of rumors. They say he was a bandit during the Republic of China, but later donated money to become an official and became a county magistrate."
Zhong Jialing said, "Yi County's tax is two to three times that of Lin County. I guess the extra money went into Ma Youguang's own pocket. By the way, I also heard that the commander of the 34th Division stationed in Jiang Province is his sister's son. The commander Huang Qu calls him uncle. With the support of the troops, he is so arrogant that he can walk sideways in Yi County."
Cheng Yaoyao said angrily: "No wonder the people here are living in poverty, the common people are as thin as a piece of dry firewood, and he has plundered all the people's wealth.
Alas, we have just established our country. This place was previously ruled by Lao Jiang. The Organization Department is short of manpower and many cadres are still in training. Therefore, about 30% of the local officials are still the same. Ma Youguang is one of those who has not been replaced. "
Luo Jiu looked around and sighed, "He is here as the King of Yi County. Even if he is given a higher position, I am afraid he would not want to change.
The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Look at the endless mountains surrounding this county.
Remote areas are to the country like the peripheral nerves of a person. The public security and laws there are not as good as those in prosperous areas.
There are always people who ignore the law and do whatever they want, but when it happens to us, we will take care of it and completely eradicate this cancer for the people of Yi County."
"Okay!" Feng Qi clenched his fists. "Isn't he called Ma Ba Pi? This time, let's peel his skin off and give the Yixian people who have been oppressed by him for thirty years a good vent."
As she was speaking, she was suddenly patted on the shoulder. She turned around and saw that it was the mother of the boy who lifted the stone yesterday.
The old woman was holding a heavy jar in her arms. She was wearing patched and tattered clothes. Her body was shriveled and hunched like a bent bow.
She smiled widely, "Finally I found you, my benefactor, do you still remember me?"
Feng Qi was stunned for a moment, and Cheng Yaoyao quickly reminded her, "The one yesterday, the boy's mother."
"Oh!" Feng Qi asked hurriedly, "Old lady, is your son okay?"
"His waist is a little hurt, but it's not serious. Now he can only lie down. The doctor said he will be fine after a few days of rest." The old woman sighed and said, "My son is so pitiful. When he was young, our family was poor and I didn't have money to send him to school.
Now we finally have an opportunity to participate in the Olympics, but when I returned the money yesterday, the official said that they would no longer be responsible for it.
What should we do? How can we afford to send him to Beijing?"
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law, there will be Olympic selections. Your son is talented and young, so let him take a good rest and wait for news."
The old woman's eyes lit up, "Really? But the official said there will be no more selections in the future."
Cheng Yaoyao smiled and said, "You are low-ranking officials here, so your words don't count. We listen to the high-ranking officials. Just wait."
The old woman nodded repeatedly, "Then when there is a letter, I will let him try again."
The old woman handed the jar in her hand to Feng Qi and said, "My benefactor, we are a poor family and have nothing to repay you for saving our lives. My son's name is Shi Lei, you remember this name, and when he makes it big in the future, he will definitely repay you.
This is the chicken soup I made myself, from a whole old hen. I only left the skeleton for Shi Lei to replenish his body, and I sent you the rest."
When Feng Qi touched the jar, she found it was still hot. She said hurriedly, "Old lady, I don't like chicken. You can keep this for your son."
"We won't eat it, so you can keep it. We will feel guilty if we don't."
The two of them pushed and refused, and Luo Jiu suddenly said: "It's a kind gesture from Auntie, just accept it. Qingyun, you and Gu Meng send Auntie home."
Lu Qingyun responded, and before leaving, Luo Jiu pulled her and stuffed ten yuan into her hand. Lu Qingyun nodded in understanding.
As soon as they left, Feng Qi couldn't wait to open the can. "Wow, such a strong chicken aroma. You can tell at a glance that they are free-range chickens raised by themselves. The soup is golden."
Zhong Jialing looked at him and said, "It's almost noon now. Let's go back to Boss Ye and get some dishes to eat with the chicken soup."
Luo Jiu nodded, "Let's go."
As soon as the four of them turned around, they saw Ma Youguang walking out of the office building. At the same time, a woman appeared out of nowhere and rushed over.
Feng Qi was hit by her unexpectedly, and the whole jar flew up. The three of them hurriedly said, "Be careful!"
