When Zhan and his mother saw that the money hidden at home was still intact in the secret compartment of the cabinet, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately they had made a plan long ago, allowing the mother and daughter to leave here and live a good life.
The mother and daughter were worried that more villagers would come in and cause trouble for them, so they first put the board behind the cabinet back in place.
They planned to take out the money late at night, put it in their bag and take it out.
By the way, they need to contact Zhan Tiehua first and ask her to find a car and wait at the village entrance in the middle of the night to avoid any further accidents.
After discussing this, the mother and daughter went to look for the phone at home, but found that even the phone had been smashed to pieces by the villagers.
This really pissed off Zhan Baoku, who couldn't help but burst into a swearing fit. Old Lady Zhan was calmer, quickly covering her son's mouth and telling him to be quiet, wary of anyone who might be listening and causing trouble.
The mother and daughter spent most of the day like turtles hiding in the locked house.
It was late at night before the mother and daughter carefully opened the cabinet partition again and took out all the money. After packing it up, they quietly opened the back door and slipped out.
Because they were afraid of being discovered, they didn't dare to use flashlights and just walked forward in the dark. As a result, when they were still about a hundred meters away from the village entrance and were about to leave, they were stopped by a group of people.
It turned out that during the day, the return of Zhan's mother and son caused quite a stir in the village.
Some villagers quickly ran to the home of the new village chief Shen Yuzhu to report the situation.
After Shen Yuzhu distributed land to the villagers, he quickly established prestige in the village.
He thought that the mother and daughter risked returning to the village at this time, not because they had nowhere else to go, but because they had some ulterior motive.
Everyone in the village watched the news about the Zhan family on TV and heard that all the illegal gains from human trafficking, including houses, savings and land, had been confiscated.
However, when Shen Yuzhu and the newly formed village leadership team checked the village accounts, they found that the rent for more than 1,000 acres of farmland that had not been distributed to the villagers had not been recorded at all.
The villagers all know that the rent for one acre of land is three to four hundred yuan a year. With so many acres of land controlled by Occupy Dayu for so many years, the income alone must be a huge number. The villagers dare not even imagine it.
So he made prompt arrangements and asked those trustworthy villagers who had been bullied by Zhan Dayou before to keep an eye on the mother and son.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion from the Zhan mother and son, he reminded the villagers to try not to make any noise.
At night, he arranged for several villagers to guard the village entrance. Before, Zhan Dayou sent people to guard the village entrance to prevent outsiders from entering, but now, the villagers guarded the village entrance to prevent the mother and daughter from sneaking out.
Sure enough, the villagers caught the mother and daughter acting suspiciously in the middle of the night, took away their bags, and took them to the village chief's house overnight.
Shen Yuzhu thought that something big must have happened in the next two days, so he waited for news at home at night and didn't go to bed yet.
When he heard the villagers knocking on the door, he hurried to open it and let the people into the yard.
Wow, more than a dozen people rushed in at once, all of them were villagers who were arranged to guard the village entrance tonight.
The Zhan mother and son were now in a very embarrassed state, being pushed into the yard by someone holding their arms, and were not released until Shen Yuzhu's family closed the door.
"Village chief, this is the bag of these two beasts. We haven't checked what it is yet. They ran out so late at night, they must have brought something shameful!" A villager put a large bag weighing 30 kilograms on the ground and said to Shen Yuzhu.
At this time, Mrs. Zhan and Zhan Baoku were no longer calm. They were afraid that the bundle would be opened, and they were very nervous and tense.
Shen Yuzhu signaled the villagers to hold the mother and daughter down to prevent them from causing trouble. Then, he opened the bundle himself.
After opening it, he found a torn bed sheet wrapped inside. Shen Yuzhu unrolled the bed sheet layer by layer, revealing many bundles of hundred-yuan bills.
All the villagers present were shocked by the scene, exclaiming and cursing, and some villagers couldn't control their legs and kicked the mother and daughter twice.
"Oh my God, I've never seen so much money in my entire life..."
"Every year, the rent for the land in our village goes to that old bastard from the Zhan family. What can we do about it?"
"Being shot is a relief for him. If he returns to the village, he will definitely be beaten to death..."
The villagers present were talking about it at once, and when they got excited they couldn't help but kick the mother and daughter to vent their anger.
Shen Yuzhu knew that the villagers were very resentful, and as long as no one was killed, he didn't intend to get involved.
The most important question now was what to do with the money. He had reported Zhan Dayou's corruption case, hoping the higher-ups would send someone to investigate thoroughly.
But now the person has been sentenced to death, and all his property has apparently been confiscated, so now these properties should be hidden properties that have not been discovered.
Moreover, the higher-ups have been silent on this corruption case. No one has come to the village to check the accounts, and it seems that they don't take this matter seriously.
He figured that the reason for this was probably that some of the protectors in the township and county that the Zhan family had previously established were afraid to investigate in order to protect themselves, and simply left the matter hanging.
If this is the case, can the village just absorb the money without anyone noticing, as if the money had never appeared?
In Shen Yuzhu's view, this money can make up for part of the shortfall in land rent that Zhan Dayu had embezzled.
