The news of Guo Hong's downfall sent panic into the hearts of the people of Zhanjia Village. Zhan Dayou gathered all the villagers connected to his interests and held a meeting, the scale of which was truly terrifying.
Zhanjiazhuang is not a small town, with hundreds of households and over 2,000 residents. Over a thousand people attended this meeting.
Because Zhan Dayou led the villagers to "get rich", the village committee was built better than that of the surrounding villages.
The meeting was held at the village committee, which had a large courtyard covering an area of about 2,000 square meters, enough to accommodate thousands of people.
At the conference, Zhan Dayou sat on the podium, turned on the microphone in front of him, and said in a serious and solemn tone: "Some things happened recently, which temporarily interrupted our financial resources.
I know that some families are not in a good financial situation, and their lives may be difficult if they lose this opportunity.
However, everyone should think about what we're doing. Things are tense out there, as I think everyone knows. Tightening your belt for a while is better than running into trouble and ending up in jail, right?
Therefore, everyone should keep quiet during this period and villagers should try not to go out.
I have mentioned this to you all before, but now there is an emergency.
The big boss who can protect us has fallen. If you go out and take risks at this time, no one can protect you.
It doesn't matter if something happens to you guys, but if it affects other people in the village, you should know the consequences, right?
Our home is here. There are many old people and children in every household, and we all have ties with each other. If anyone makes trouble, I'm sorry, but your whole family will have to leave Zhanjiazhuang.
As for whether you can survive after you get out, it has nothing to do with us in Zhanjiazhuang."
Zhan Dayong used these words to warn the villagers, so that they would be afraid to go out and cause trouble during special times.
The villagers have been following Zhan Dayou to do this kind of thing for a long time, and almost nothing has happened, so they admire Zhan Dayou's ability very much.
Now, since Zhan Dayou said so, everyone will definitely do as Zhan Dayou says.
However, some people still raised their doubts: "Village Chief, what should we do in the future?"
Zhan Dayou reassured the villagers, "Don't worry, everyone. Since I can find you one way to make money, I can find you another. If you are willing, just follow me and I will ensure that you can all live a good life."
I've already got some ideas. Once the recent turmoil has passed, I'll start something else. It's less risky, but the profits are just as good as this business. If you trust me, then be patient."
After Zhan Dayou said this, everyone felt relieved and began to get ready to embrace the next wave of more stable ways to get rich.
Zhan Heping's parents were not invited to the meeting this time, but that did not stop Heping's mother from going to the village committee and listening to the meeting by the outer wall.
Although she didn't know what the second way to get rich that Zhan Dayou mentioned was, she still had some calculations in her mind. She thought, it must be something shady, otherwise it wouldn't be so mysterious.
As for Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou, Wu Xing unilaterally filed a lawsuit against the couple because Wu Xing's son was found in their home, and they could not explain how the child came from, so they would inevitably conclude that they had abducted the child.
He originally thought that with Professor Zhou's power, the case between his son and Qian Longbin could be quickly closed, and the case between Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou should also be faster.
But with no news of a trial yet, Wu Xing was getting anxious. Sun Aimin reassured Wu Xing, "This matter isn't as simple as just involving these two people. According to Professor Zhou, the higher-ups are investigating the case, but it's quite complex and involves many people, so it might take some time."
Don't worry, they can't escape the charges. Once we wipe out that kidnapper village, your lawsuit will be over soon."
What Sun Aimin said was correct. What the higher-ups meant was to set a trap for the other party first, making them think that there was room for maneuver and that there was a possibility of acquitting Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou, thus relaxing their vigilance and making it easier to take action against them.
It was precisely because of this arrangement that after Guo Hong contacted the Mafang City Public Security Bureau Chief, who was also his former classmate, the other party "reluctantly" gave him face and allowed the Zhan family to help Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou transfer the blame to Zhan Baokun and Zhan Heping.
Doing so can also be considered as luring the snake out of its hole so as to collect more evidence of the crime and obtain more information about the people involved.
Therefore, we have to wait until Zhanjiazhuang is wiped out before we focus on sorting out the cases of Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou and let them receive the punishment they deserve.
While Wu Xing was still waiting for the trial of his lawsuit with Qian Zhan and his wife, Zhao Hongjun also filed a lawsuit against them.
Because the two children were lost together and found in the same place, and the perpetrators were directly pointed at Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou, the cases should be tried together.
Now, these matters are all handled by dedicated people, and Sun Aimin and others can't help much, so they have all returned to their normal lives.
Compared to those parents who have found their children, Chen Jianye and Bai Yuxin's life is not so easy.
Although they got some information from Sun Aimin, they were still anxious because they couldn't see their children.
Chen Jianye is not in the mood to work now, but fortunately the company's operations are back on track. He can leave for a while and manage the company remotely by phone.
He is now staying in Jiangyuan City with Bai Yuxin. The missing child advertisements posted in various media are still being circulated as usual, and the printed missing child leaflets are still being distributed in Jiangyuan City and surrounding villages and towns.
They could not resume their normal life until their son returned safely.
Zhan Heping's parents are now eager to save their son, so they are very concerned about obtaining evidence of Zhan Dayu's family's crimes.
At the same time, they were always looking for opportunities to attack the villagers.
Normally, if the higher-ups came to the village to arrest someone, they could have succeeded if they had stormed into Zhan Dayou's house in the middle of the night. However, the village was now under strict control, with people on duty at the entrance day and night.
Especially at night, the number of people keeping watch at the village entrance increased. If the people sent by the higher-ups were insufficient, they really wouldn't be able to deal with these villagers.
Zhanjiazhuang also prepared some hunting rifles in the village. In the past, there was a clear order that residents who had hunting rifles should voluntarily hand them over. However, the villagers of Zhanjiazhuang not only did not hand over the guns, but secretly increased the number of them, just to deal with the situation where they might be wiped out one day.
The superiors were aware of the situation in Zhanjiazhuang and therefore did not dare to act rashly. Minimizing the risk of casualties among investigators was also something that the superiors emphasized when arranging work.
