At this moment, Lei Laowan was fiddling with a map inside the sand field.
He was ready.
If Liu can't raise the money, he should head south and sell the car for a good price.
With money.
He became arrogant and domineering in the village.
The young widow at the east end of the village threw money at him, determined to warm her own bed.
Thinking about this...
Lei Laowan laughed heartily, drool glistening as it dripped down the corners of his mouth.
He drew the driving route on the map with a pencil.
Very satisfied.
At that very moment.
The door was kicked open with a clang.
Lei Laowan put on his clothes and started cursing, "You brat Liu! You've gone too far! Can't you even knock?"
When Lei Laowan came out, he was dumbfounded.
Inside the courtyard.
Dozens of heavily armed special police officers were carrying their weapons.
They all looked at Lei Laowan with chilling eyes.
Lei Laowan's mind went blank.
He then raised his hands and gave a stiff smile: "Um... did you come to the wrong place?"
One of them stepped forward and questioned, "Lei Laowan?"
"That's right, that's right."
"Here, put it on yourself." The man tossed over a pair of silver bracelets.
Lei Laowan cuffed his hands quite skillfully, then asked in a questioning tone, "Why are you arresting me? Wasn't the last theft dealt with? Repeatedly dealing with it won't do."
"Stop talking nonsense! I'm asking you, is this car yours?"
Lei Laowan seemed to know what was going on. He never expected that Wu Changfeng would have such power!
Oh no, I've messed things up, I've kicked a hornet's nest!
Lei Laowan immediately replied, "Others just leave it there. I'm also wondering why they haven't taken it out even after it's been there for several days."
"You're not being honest, are you?"
"No, no! I'm telling the truth!" Lei Laowan said with a smile, trying to please him. "It's the truth, look, I didn't touch the car at all."
"Luckily you didn't touch it. If you had, you'd be eating peanuts, you know?"
"ah?"
"What 'huh'?! Someone take him away first!"
Lei Laowan cried out in a fit of extreme injustice, "Why are you arresting me! Isn't this a trap? I didn't do anything!"
"Didn't do it?" A man who looked like a leader stepped forward and angrily rebuked, "Do you know who owns the car? Do you know how much foreign exchange he has generated for the country?"
"You actually tried to blackmail me! You blind fool!"
"Let me tell you, because of you, we almost had a major diplomatic incident!"
Lei Laowan's mind was buzzing.
He racked his brains but couldn't figure out how Wu Changfeng had gotten involved in a diplomatic incident.
I didn't cause any trouble.
Is this Mercedes-Benz used to pick up foreign guests?
Even so, shouldn't foreign guests be more careful with their words?
But then Lei Laowan understood.
A person found the car keys and opened the car door.
He then went inside and rummaged around, and a stamp was taken out. The man breathed a sigh of relief: "The stamp is still there, we can continue to fulfill the contract. Mission accomplished, withdraw."
Lei Laowan screamed inwardly: I'll fuck your grandpa!
If one stamp is damaged, just carve a new one!
Why do they have to use this as an excuse to target me?
Is it worth it?
Young Liu is such a fool, actually messing with such a big shot who's involved in a diplomatic incident!
Lei Laowan was taken away and put into a car along with Liu Xiaozi.
The villagers started gossiping again, pointing and whispering as they looked at the disheveled couple through the car window.
"What happened? Why were you arrested?"
"Big news! This is a huge problem!"
"What major event could have happened in our dilapidated village that would warrant so many arrests? Was someone murdered?"
"Bullshit, those two just pretend to be thugs all the time, they're too scared to draw blood."
"So who exactly is involved and what's it all about?"
"I'm telling you, but don't tell anyone. I heard that these two bastards kidnapped foreign guests and are demanding money from the government."
"Holy crap! This is enough for a banquet!"
"That's for sure. They've got some nerve. The country has repeatedly emphasized that there are no small matters in diplomacy. These two are really asking for trouble."
Liu Xiaozi: ...
Lei Laowan: ...
The two men's friends were stunned.
Who the hell is spreading this rumor?!
We did not kidnap any foreign guests!
I didn't see any foreign guests either!
Holy crap, they're really going all out to get this banquet started!
Lei Laowan's face was even uglier than if he'd eaten shit. He spat at Liu Xiaozi and said, "Look at the stupid ideas you came up with! You didn't get a single penny and just got yourself into a mess!"
"Bullshit!" Liu glared at him. "How would I know there were diplomatically important items in that car? You've been caught off guard, what are you panicking about!"
"Go to hell with you!" Old Lei cursed, still not satisfied. "He's definitely going in! He won't be out for decades!"
"Don't panic, don't panic. My sister knows Wu Changfeng, so it definitely won't be a problem."
Lei Laowan glanced at Liu Xiaozi, holding his breath without saying a word.
The Liu family's house is now packed with people.
Aunt Liu hurriedly offered her seat to everyone.
One of them waved his hand: "I'm not sitting here. I wanted to ask, is Ms. Willow here?"
Liu Ma pushed the willow branch out.
The willow branches were a little timid; anyone would feel uneasy seeing so many officials.
But she remained outwardly calm and said, "That's me. What do you need me for?"
"We have been entrusted by the leaders of Jiyang Province to invite you to go to Jiyang Province today and return to your post as soon as possible."
Aunt Liu asked in confusion, "What kind of position is it? My daughter is..."
“We did some research before we came. Is there a misunderstanding? Well, Ms. Liu is the general manager of Qimingxing Industrial Company. The provincial government needs her to take charge of the work.”
