County Chief Li slammed the table angrily and said:
"What did you say? 50 pigs. Wan Defu must be really brave!"
"What about the pigs? How are they? Have they been sold by Wan Defu and his gang? Has the pig farm suffered such a huge loss?"
Stationmaster Wei looked like he had just survived a disaster and said:
"Fortunately, Comrade Lin Manman, who was sent by Lalin Commune to study at our animal husbandry station, discovered it and stopped it in time. The pig farm didn't find out, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"
County Magistrate Li also breathed a sigh of relief. If all 50 pigs were gone, then the people of Chang County would not even be able to eat meat dumplings on their tables during the New Year. He, as the county magistrate, would be guilty of a serious crime!
County Magistrate Li sincerely praised Lin Manman and said:
"Comrade Lin is really great. I must credit you for this. When this matter is resolved, I will thank you again!"
Lin Manman did not refuse. She had put in so much effort, why should she push the benefits away?
Lin Manman said politely:
"There's no rush for these. Let's deal with Wan Defu, Yu Hao and Nian Daming first!"
County Magistrate Li was also very anxious about this matter, and he immediately called the Public Security Bureau and asked them to conduct a thorough investigation to find out the whole story and the incident of swine fever at the beginning of the year!
Now that it has come to this, it’s time to pull out all the clues that Lin Manman had buried!
Lin Manman said directly:
"County Magistrate Li, I actually have a witness and a recording here!"
County Magistrate Li was surprised:
"Where is the witness? Come over here quickly and bring out the recording. I have a recorder at home. I'll have someone get it!"
Lin Manman suggested:
"You don't need to invite witnesses. You can ask the police to go to Yu Hao's home, arrest Yu Hao's family, and bring Yu Hao's wife here alone. Ah, you can't say Yu Hao's wife, Yu Hao's ex-wife, just call Yu Hao's ex-wife here alone!"
County Magistrate Li was surprised:
"Yu Hao's ex-wife is at Yu Hao's house, and she is also your witness? What's going on!"
Lin Manman explained:
"What County Magistrate Li doesn't know is that Yu Hao thought he was great for releasing the veterinarian, and wanted to climb up the social ladder, so he divorced his wife!"
"But the house he lives in belongs to his wife, and he tricked her into writing his name on it. He used this to threaten his wife, asking her to divorce him but not leave the house!"
"Her wife is a hot-tempered person. I happened to see her when she went to the animal husbandry station to look for him. I had a grudge against Yu Hao, so I asked his wife to find out some dirt on Yu Hao, and that's how she discovered such a big thing!"
"At first I didn't believe it. No matter how bad his character is, he couldn't steal state property and harm national interests. His wife saw that I didn't believe it, so she thought of using a tape recorder to record his account of the crime!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have noticed him going to the veterinary pharmacy to get knockout drugs every day, and wouldn't have realized he had done such a big thing!"
County Magistrate Li hates people who try to climb up the social ladder, not to mention that Yu Hao took over other people's property and abandoned his wife in order to climb up the social ladder. He is even more despicable than Wan Defu!
County Magistrate Li nodded and said:
"Then please invite Yu Hao's wife, no, Yu Hao's ex-wife, over here and let her explain everything clearly!"
"Don't worry, she has done a great job. When this is over, she will get the reward she deserves!"
Lin Manman stopped him and said:
"County Magistrate Li, she doesn't need to be invited, just do as I say. Her house is still under Yu Hao's name. She wants the house back, so she has to endure the grievances!"
County Magistrate Li is a very smart man. He understood what Lin Manman said. He smiled and told Secretary Wu:
"You've heard what Comrade Lin said, right? Go tell the Public Security Bureau and don't mess this up!"
Secretary Wu responded:
"Don't worry, County Magistrate. I'll go talk to them right away. I'm sure they won't mess it up!"
In order to explain clearly and avoid Magistrate Li's suspicion of scheming, Lin Manman took out Yu Hao's previous self-criticism letter and handed it to Magistrate Li, saying:
“County Magistrate Li, I have some personal grudges with Yu Hao and Wan Defu, otherwise I wouldn’t have thought of asking Yu Hao’s ex-wife to investigate whether Yu Hao had any problems!”
"When I first came to the animal husbandry station, Stationmaster Wei asked Yu Hao to take me in. Yu Hao forced me to respect the elders and worship the master. I also had to work for the master for three years. I also had to visit the master and his wife during the three festivals and two birthdays every year!"
"This is what Yu Hao wrote about this incident. Because of this incident, Yu Hao apologized to me at the entrance of the animal husbandry station cafeteria for three days. Many people at the animal husbandry station knew about it!"
When County Magistrate Li heard that Yu Hao was so greedy, he immediately asked Stationmaster Wei:
"Stationmaster Wei, how could your animal husbandry station keep such a scum as a veterinarian? He blatantly asks for gifts. I can imagine his attitude of eating and taking when he goes to the production team to treat the livestock. This is simply outrageous!"
Stationmaster Wei cried out for justice:
"County Magistrate Li, this matter really has nothing to do with me. Yu Hao is Wan Defu's brother-in-law, and Wan Defu has been protecting him with all his might. When I took over the affairs of the animal husbandry station, he was already a veterinarian!"
"Besides, since Wan Defu has worked at the Animal Husbandry Station for a long time, even now, my words at the Animal Husbandry Station are not as effective as his, so no one really comes to me to talk about Yu Hao's affairs!"
When County Magistrate Li heard that it was Wan Defu's brother-in-law, he retorted:
"What brother-in-law Wan Defu? My daughter doesn't have a brother. How can there be a brother-in-law Wan Defu?"
After thinking about it again, Wan Defu remarried, County Magistrate Li finally reacted and said:
"Is he the brother-in-law of the wife that Queen Wan Defu married?"
Stationmaster Wei nodded and said:
"Yes, it's the younger brother of Yu Dedi whom I married later!"
"And there's Nian Daming, the brother-in-law of Wan Defu's wife. Wan Defu told him Lianqiao!"
Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Li was even more furious. Not only did this old man Wan Defu remarry when his daughter's body was still warm, but he also found such an unreliable family!
He gritted his teeth and said:
"This Wan Defu is really going too far. The livestock station is his family's. This matter must be dealt with severely. I want to see how many lawless things he has done in the past year or so!"
Because County Magistrate Li had lost his daughter and his granddaughter was with him, he felt that he had nothing to do with Wan Defu, so he didn't pay much attention to Wan Defu's affairs. He didn't expect that Wan Defu was so bold and had done so many things since he married the latter!
