The captain said, "You probably don't know who he is."
“I will tell you who he is.”
“He is Zhong Yaozu, the nephew of Zhong Qingqing from the Baiyun Brigade next door, and the younger brother of Zhong Mengnan.”
Everyone was stunned.
What does the matter of Xiahe Village have to do with Baiyun Brigade?
Zhong Yaozu stubbornly retorted, "You're talking nonsense, I'm not."
Captain: "No? Zhong Mengnan, do you know him?"
Zhong Mengnan was the one who arrived late. She wanted to make herself less noticeable, but everyone's eyes were like radars, automatically making way for her, and all eyes fell on her.
"Not going to say anything, huh?"
"Someone, take him to the police station."
"No." Zhong Mengnan knelt down on the ground with a thud.
“Captain, my brother is innocent. He did nothing.”
The captain scoffed, "Innocent? What did he do to innocence me?"
Zhong Mengnan was taken aback.
She stared blankly at the captain.
"idiot."
Zhong Mengnan's husband muttered a curse under his breath.
The captain scoffed, "What did he do?"
Zhong Mengnan trembled. "You mean him...?"
“Let me tell you what he did. He incited our villagers to cause trouble, slandered Qiao Wanyue for being greedy for money, caused trouble at the Lu family’s house, and joined forces with the Qiao family brigade and the Baiyun brigade to try to seize the dried vegetable business.”
As soon as he finished speaking...
The villagers objected.
"Captain, what do you mean? We can't continue our dried vegetable business?"
The captain looked at the foolish man and said, "Miaomiao, you speak."
Yang Miaomiao was furious. She held up a megaphone and said, "I've been squatting at the state-owned factory all day. Someone reported Minister Xu, saying that our Xiahe Village is engaging in illegal reselling, which is against the rules. They want the state-owned factory to terminate its cooperation with us and instead cooperate with Qiaojia Brigade and Baiyun Brigade."
The villagers panicked immediately.
"Captain, we can't let them take it!"
"Captain, the dried vegetable business belongs to us."
The crowd was even more agitated than before.
The captain coldly observed the excited crowd below the stage.
During the day, Qiao Wanyue and Secretary Guo were taken away. Apart from a few people who were close to them and came to inquire, everyone else closed their doors and waited for news. Some people even secretly went to find out how much dried vegetables cost per kilogram.
Did their team leaders embezzle funds?
A single word from someone can make them doubt the leadership team that genuinely cares for the villagers.
He took over the position of village chief from his father and later became the brigade leader. Over the years, he worked diligently to improve the lives of the villagers. However, he never expected that a single word from an outsider would lead them to trust that outsider.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't heartbroken.
"Are they yours?"
"Did you go to build connections, or to negotiate a price?"
He pointed to Secretary Guo and Qiao Wanyue, "Qiao Wanyue and Secretary Guo negotiated with the state-owned factory. Secretary Guo was afraid that incomplete procedures would implicate you, so he went to get the approvals and pull strings in the county so that you could have some income and improve your lives. And what about you?"
"Qiao Wanyue and Secretary Guo were arrested, did you even ask them a single question?"
"They even went to the Lu family to cause trouble, saying that Qiao Wanyue was embezzling money. Did Qiao Wanyue ever touch the money for dried vegetables? When Secretary Guo received the money, he handed it over to the village's finance department. Every penny was handed over to you."
"You brought people to coerce the Lu family, the elderly and young. Lu Rong is not young, and Lu Hui is just a child. What, you want to beat them to death?"
Everyone lowered their heads in shame.
"Captain, we didn't." The person who spoke was the one who had been hiding at home that afternoon. Although he hadn't participated, he was still somewhat guilty.
The captain took a deep breath. "I've arrested the people who caused trouble today. Everyone, take a look and see whose family they are."
"Bring it up."
The villagers were furious, as the brigade leader pointed his finger at them and berated them.
