Chapter 69: It is difficult to persuade the damned ghost with kind words
Deng Xiuzhen said: "I also heard about it a few days ago. A woman pretended to like someone else's child on a busy street and gave the child popsicles. After gaining the child's trust, she took the child away when the child wasn't paying attention.
Could it be that group of people?"
Zhao Chunyan quickly took over the conversation: "It is possible that they are in the same group. Your Wen Yu is young, you have to talk to him properly, otherwise he will be deceived and abducted and regret it."
After Zhao Chunyan finished speaking, she went back. Fang Mei's family and Tian Guoqiang stayed for dinner.
After dinner, Fang Mei and her family went home.
Tian Guoqiang then got down to business:
First, I asked Deng Xiuzhen why she talked about the child trafficking issue today?
He clearly hadn't heard of any children being abducted recently, and Zhao Chunyan came and said that and then left. As soon as he heard it, he knew that the two of them were acting out a double act.
Deng Xiuzhen said, that’s not true, why are we performing a double act for no reason?
Tian Guoqiang smiled and said: I am an old policeman. Maybe I haven’t heard as many strange things as you have heard from others, but I can judge whether people are telling the truth very accurately.
Deng Xiuzhen also laughed and said, "I met a woman on the street today. She looked nice and approached the children as if she particularly liked children.
But I had a hunch that she had bad intentions, and I wanted to warn them, but I was afraid they would say I didn’t say good things and curse them. That’s why I had this incident with Teacher Zhao.”
Tian Guoqiang listened, thought for a moment and said: "From what I heard from you just now, I think you must have your intentions.
Since we are talking about child trafficking, it must be related to children, so I observed those two people.
I found that they were not interested in what you said about child abduction, but were only interested in Wenjing's studies.
I really don’t know what they are thinking. The children are so young. The older one looks only five or six years old, and the younger one is even younger.
Why don't they care about safety but care about learning? What can such a young child learn?
Your double act was not performed well. The other party didn't care at all and definitely didn't listen to your words."
"I said everything I should have said, but they didn't listen. If anything goes wrong again, they will be responsible!" Deng Xiuzhen felt annoyed when she heard Tian Guoqiang say that Fang Mei and her husband didn't listen to their advice, and her words were emotional.
"You mean this will definitely happen? Someone will kidnap their children? Or have kidnapped their children." Hearing Deng Xiuzhen use the word "again", Tian Guoqiang had a feeling that this would most likely come true.
"I don't know, I just feel very bad." Deng Xiuzhen couldn't answer Tian Guoqiang's question and could only give a perfunctory answer.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. I have good news to tell you. I got promoted to deputy director," said Tian Guoqiang.
"Congratulations, congratulations to Director Tian on your promotion." Deng Xiuzhen felt happy for Tian Guoqiang and kept blessing him.
"I'm busy with the case of the female corpse in the suitcase recently. Once the case is solved, I'll treat your family to a big dinner." Tian Guoqiang said and left.
He came here today mainly to bring up the female corpse case and see if Deng Xiuzhen had any special opinions. Deng Xiuzhen did not respond, probably because she had not heard anything about it.
Then he told her about his promotion and asked her to go to his home or the bureau to find him if she had any problems, so that she wouldn't have to make a wasted trip to the office.
After Tian Guoqiang returned, he immediately arranged for two policemen to quietly follow Qi Guomin's family, especially their children.
Deng Xiuzhen didn't know about Tian Guoqiang's arrangement, and she didn't intend to mention it again.
It’s hard to persuade a damn ghost with kind words.
She said everything she needed to say and advised everyone she needed to advise, but Qi Guomin didn't listen. What could she do?
A few days later, Qin Yanlin came back and discussed with Deng Xiuzhen: I heard from others today that you can now buy a city hukou.
He went to find someone specifically and found out that it was really possible to buy it. He wanted to buy city household registration for his three children.
In that era, even if people with rural household registration worked, they were only temporary workers and could not be converted to permanent employees.
However, urban hukou can be regularized, and urban hukou holders can enjoy minimum living security in case of illness or financial difficulties, but rural hukou holders cannot.
Tan Yanlin said that the current household registration fee is 2,300 yuan per person, and if there are three children, the fee will be 6,900 yuan, which the family can afford.
For the long-term benefit of the children, the establishment of a construction team can be postponed and the children's household registration can be purchased first. After all, the quota is limited.
Deng Xiuzhen didn't say anything. She knew that the urban household registration, which is popular now, would become common in the future and would be of no use at all.
In the future, urban household registration will not only be useless, unable to provide any guarantee for life and enjoy any preferential treatment, but will also leave one with no way out, with no home in the countryside and their land being reclaimed.
"Xiuzhen?" Tan Yanlin saw that Deng Xiuzhen was silent and just in a daze, not knowing what had happened.
"Ah?" Deng Xiuzhen came back to her senses, thought for a moment and said, "Let's not buy the household registration. I always feel that an identity that can be sold is controlled by capital. How can ordinary people like us get anything good out of something controlled by capital?"
"Xiuzhen, where did you hear that?" Tan Yanlin felt that there was some truth in what he said, but he didn't think that Deng Xiuzhen could not say such things.
“A customer said this today. He was trying to persuade his brother not to buy a household registration, and I happened to hear it.
Yanlin, the city construction has just begun, and it is a good time to work hard and make money.
We won't buy a hukou, and we'll use the money to help you set up a construction team. We'll make more money, which is better than getting a permanent job."
Tan Yanlin thought about it and agreed not to buy the household registration.
Since the last incident, Qin Yanlin set a principle for himself: he would give more consideration to everything, and when there were family conflicts, he would try his best to respect Deng Xiuzhen's opinions.
Deng Xiuzhen's opinion is indeed biased, but we should not argue or quarrel and try to resolve the issue peacefully.
If Deng Xiuzhen does not support buying a household registration, then don’t buy it now. You can buy it after you earn money.
"Yanlin! Yanlin! Has our child come to your place?" That evening, Qin Yanlin's family was having dinner, and Qi Guomin ran in with sweat all over his forehead and asked.
"No? What's the matter?" Tan Yanlin stood up quickly.
"We took our children out to play in the afternoon. When we were in West Lake Park, we sat on a bench and watched the children play. Then we ran into an acquaintance. We talked for a while, and when we looked back, we didn't see the children anymore.
We searched for a long time but couldn't find the children, so we thought they had been to your place before. West Lake Park is not far from here, so maybe they came to your place. "
"No, did you come today?" Deng Xiuzhen wanted to ask them if they met a woman who gave popsicles to their children.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, Qi Guomin had already run away.
Deng Xiuzhen sighed and said to Tan Yanlin, "Why don't you help them look for it, and I'll go ask Director Tian if we can file a case as soon as possible and help look for it."
"It's dark now. It's not safe for you to go out alone. I'll go with you to find Director Tian. I don't think I will be of much use at the National People's Congress." Tan Yanlin chose to accompany Deng Xiuzhen.
The two asked the children to return to Chenjia Bay quickly, then locked the door and went to Gucheng Street to find Tian Guoqiang.
