Gradually, others were influenced and followed the man, pushing out. This further complicated the situation, with those trying to flee the scene clashing with those trying to maintain order. The entire scene descended into chaos. People pushed, shoved, argued, and even fought, shattering the previously peaceful atmosphere.
At this moment, Tang Jianguo was unusually calm and resolute.
He straightened up, staring intently at the workers preparing to leave, then shouted hysterically, "Workers, please don't leave! The public security department will never arrest people without reason. Now that they're here, this is a perfect opportunity for us to demand a reasonable explanation from them and demand that this despicable woman compensate us for the huge economic losses we have suffered! At this moment, we must unite closely. If everyone chooses to escape or leave, the days ahead will become even more difficult and difficult!"
At this time, someone in the crowd shouted: "Make way, let the public security comrades in."
The onlookers immediately made way for them.
At this time, a group of uniformed public security personnel appeared in everyone's sight, some of them were terrified, and some were calm.
The person walking in front was Director Zhang from the County Public Security Bureau, who came up to the couple.
"Doctor Wang, I'm sorry. I didn't do my job well. Don't worry, I will resolve this matter."
Wang Xiaolan and Zhao Lihan nodded and said, "Thank you for troubling Director Zhang."
Director Zhang said, "You've all misunderstood and been tricked. This person is the person in charge of the Xiangshui Brigade Pickle Processing Factory! They're not wrong. It was your Factory Director Liu who instructed others to steal the factory's formula. We've received several reports all related to him, and he's confessed himself."
Someone asked, "When will Director Liu be released?"
"It's hard to say, because his case is a bit complicated, it may take some time."
When the people present heard this, they were immediately in an uproar! Some of them were filled with fury, shaking with anger; others were like deflated balls, crying and at a loss; some even collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears.
The whole scene became extremely chaotic, and people's emotions erupted like a volcano, as if to ignite the entire space.
"We don't have a factory manager anymore. What are we going to do? Without jobs, what are we going to eat?"
"We have a family of people who are counting on me to support them."
"Are we supposed to steal or rob?"
Director Zhang looked at the angry crowd and waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down.
"Comrades, be quiet, be quiet! Our government will not ignore you, don't worry!"
Tang Jianguo stepped forward and said, "How can we not be anxious? We don't know the hardship of being on horseback."
Then someone else added: "A well-fed man does not know the hunger of a hungry man."
"Comrades, we have discussed this with the relevant departments and will definitely not ignore you."
Everyone said: "We don't believe it..."
Wang Xiaolan looked at the workers, all of whom had families to support, and understood their financial difficulties. She thought to herself, "If I could contract this factory, not only would it allow these workers to keep their jobs and avoid the worry of unemployment, but it would also provide employment opportunities for my fellow villagers, ensuring they all have stable work and income. This way, I could help others improve their lives while contributing to my hometown. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?"
Thinking of this, she lowered her voice and said carefully to the Public Security Bureau Chief, "These workers have a hard time. Each of them has a family. If they lose their jobs, how will their families survive? This not only affects their own livelihoods, but may also trigger a series of social conflicts and instability. I want to contract this factory to provide everyone with a stable source of income, but I don't know if the higher-ups will approve it..."
After hearing what Wang Xiaolan said, Director Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Great! I was worried about this matter. You've solved a big problem for our government. This factory is under the management of the Street Office, and the director of the Street Office is my comrade. I can help you make the connection. You can talk to them about the specific matters. I think they'll agree."
After he finished speaking, he said to the crowd, "Everyone go back! You won't lose your job."
Tang Jianguo looked at Director Zhang in disbelief, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He could only watch Director Zhang lead Wang Xiaolan and her group into the jeep and leave.
…
In the provincial capital, a jeep stopped at the compound for government employees’ families. Zeng Qiang got out, and the jeep drove away.
Zeng Qiang held an exquisite and mysterious black briefcase tightly under his arm. With a firm gaze and steady and powerful steps, he walked straight towards the eye-catching two-story red brick building not far ahead.
This two-story building, resembling an ancient castle, is nestled in a quiet neighborhood, shaded by trees and offering a pleasant environment. Its red brick walls, shimmering in the sunlight, appear particularly vibrant and eye-catching, creating a sense of solemnity and elegance.
He had just walked to the door and was about to knock when it opened from the inside. He saw a well-dressed middle-aged wife standing at the door with a look of surprise on her face.
She quickly stretched out her hands to take the briefcase from his hands, fearing that her slow movements would make the other party feel uncomfortable or dissatisfied.
Her name is Yu Wenlin, and she is forty-eight years old. Time seems to have been particularly kind to her, leaving few traces on her. She is elegant, dignified, and graceful, exuding a unique charm in every gesture.
Although he is almost reaching the age of knowing his destiny, Yu Wenlin looks much younger than his actual age.
Her well-maintained face is almost wrinkle-free, her skin still fair and delicate; her eyes are bright and spirited, revealing intelligence and wisdom; and a faint smile always lingers on her lips, giving people a sense of warmth and kindness. Her figure is well-maintained, not having gained weight or become out of shape with age, but instead appearing even slimmer and more slender.
She works in the archives of the National Security Bureau. Her work is relatively leisurely. Every day she just classifies the various documents she receives and distributes them to various departments. Then she collects the sent documents and organizes and archives them.
She put Zeng Qiang's briefcase into the study, then placed a cup of tea on the coffee table.
"Lao Zeng, you're back so early. Didn't you say you'd be back for a few days? Is there something you want to talk to me about? "
"Well, I do have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
"Sit down. Do you still remember the daughter we sent away twenty-five years ago?"
"Of course I remember! She was a precious piece of my heart! Even though so many years have passed, every night when I fall asleep, I dream of her crying at me with tears all over her face. However, every time I approach her, she suddenly dissipates like smoke, disappearing without a trace. Old Zeng, why did you suddenly mention our daughter today?"
