After they heard the news, they waited here yesterday. They thought it was raining yesterday and they would not come. Fortunately, they are here today. They heard that this group of people had tens of thousands of cash and tens of thousands of big bills, which they had not seen yet!
After getting the money, I pushed the man to the bottom of the cliff, sold the tractor, and then I could live a good life of luxury...
"..." Zhou Yiding steadied himself and looked at this group of vicious guys. He felt that it would be difficult to let things go even if he gave them all the money today. So he decided to go all out and fight them.
He aimed at the black-faced man and said to Zhou Huaian: "Youngest, they want to get some money from us..."
"What are you doing? Where are you from? How dare you rob people on the road!" He was interrupted by a loud shout before he could finish his words.
I saw a group of people rushing over with hoes, crowbars, and hunting rifles. The leader was actually Secretary Lin of Baicaopao. "The militia went up and confiscated their guns."
When the black-faced man saw the person coming, his expression suddenly changed. Seeing this, the young men with sticks behind them all fled into the woods.
"Catch them!" A middle-aged man called on the people with crowbars, shoulder poles and hoes to chase after them.
Several militiamen came forward with shotguns in hand and surrounded the two black-faced men with guns. "Surrender your guns and we won't kill you!"
After seeing this, Zhou Huaian felt a little relieved and a little regretful. He thought he should have shot and broken Hei Lian's legs when Zhou Yiding opened his mouth. Now that Secretary Lin and others had arrived, it was not a good idea to shoot again.
However, it is fortunate that we can avoid a fierce battle. After all, swords and guns have no eyes. If Xu Hongbing and Li Wu were injured, it would be difficult to explain to their families.
Xu Hongbing looked at Secretary Lin and his men rushing out, and his nervousness suddenly disappeared. He shouted happily, "Secretary Lin, that black-faced bastard blew up all our tires."
"Don't worry, ask them to pay!" Secretary Lin pointed his shotgun at the black-faced man and said, "Where are you from? Damn bastards, how dare you come to rob Brother Zhou and his men? Tie them up."
Several militiamen took away the guns of the two men and tied them up.
"You damn bastard, how dare you blow up my tires..." Xu Hongbing jumped off the tractor, kicked the black-faced man a few times, and cursed his ancestors.
A simple-minded man followed suit and kicked the two men, "You son of a bitch, you broke the youngest's tractor, I'm going to break your leg!"
The man with the black face shrank into a ball after being kicked, gritting his teeth and trying not to let out a scream, while the other man screamed continuously.
Zhou Huaian looked at Lin Dazhuang and said happily, "Brother Dazhuang, the new material, new cotton, yellow rubber shoes and rain boots you asked me to buy for you were almost snatched away by these two bastards."
He is the son of Secretary Lin's uncle's cousin. He had a fever when he was a child and his brain was damaged. At the age of twenty-six or twenty-seven, he looks like a child of several years old and a little silly, but he is a good mountain hunter.
The people in Baicaopao owed the Dazhuang family the most money, a total of more than three thousand.
"Youngest, don't be afraid, I'll help you beat that bastard!" Lin Dazhuang kicked them a few more times, "You bastards, you dare to steal my things, I'll beat you to death!"
Secretary Lin looked at the four people and asked, "Youngest, are you injured anywhere?"
"No!" Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding offered cigarettes to the villagers one by one, "Secretary Lin, why are you here? Fortunately you came, otherwise we would be in trouble today."
Secretary Lin was also glad to arrive in time. "We were worried that the heavy rain last night would damage the road, so we came out early in the morning to repair the road. We thought we could get some wild animals back to entertain you when you came. On the way here, we suddenly heard gunshots, so we hurried over here."
Zhou Huaian pointed at the rear tire and said, "They blew it up right away. Luckily they didn't hit the oil drum above, otherwise we would be in trouble today."
"Yes, yes!" Secretary Lin didn't even dare to think about it, and hurried forward to look at the flattened tire, "Do you have a spare one?"
Zhou Huaian nodded, "There is one. Everyone, help lift the front tire out of the trap first, and we will replace the tire."
"Come and help!" Secretary Lin shouted, and everyone gathered around the front of the tractor. "1, 2, 3" everyone worked together to lift the front wheel out of the pit.
Zhou Yiding stood next to Zhou Huaian and said, "Youngest brother, we need to ask those two bastards, who tipped them off?"
Zhou Huaian nodded, "Yes! I'll say hello to Secretary Lin."
After he finished speaking, he walked up to Secretary Lin and said, "Secretary Lin, I think they were waiting here beforehand. Someone must have tipped them off. They knew we were coming today, so they came here to guard. I have to ask them."
Secretary Lin: "We have to ask. If we don't find out clearly, we won't dare to walk this road anymore." What he is most worried about is Zhou Huaian and others. They may not come in to collect mountain products after suffering losses.
Zhou Huaian walked up to the black-faced man, squatted down and looked at him, "Dude! Where are you from? Who told you that we have to pass through here today?"
The dark-faced man glanced at him and said sarcastically, "You guys have been collecting goods along the way, what else do you need to say?"
"Are you trying to be tough with me?" Zhou Huaian stepped on his fingers, crushed them a few times, and looked at him coldly.
The black-faced man screamed in pain, "Ah...ah...I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
Zhou Huaian loosened his feet, looked down at him, and motioned Zhou Yiding to take a notebook to write down the black-faced man's words.
The dark-faced man hesitated for a moment and said, "My name is Xu Chenglong, and I live in the town. Zou Xishui, who lives next door to me, also sells herbs. He told me that you are a big drug dealer, and that you brought at least tens of thousands of cash..."
Zhou Huaian glanced at Zhou Yiding and sighed, "Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. The purchase price we offered was much higher than theirs. We also expected that they would find someone to deal with us sooner or later, but we didn't expect them to act so quickly."
"They are right to cheat us!" Secretary Lin became angrier and angrier, "It's all because of that bastard. Every time they come, they drive down the price of medicinal materials. It's thanks to you that we can have a full meal."
Then he said to Zhou Huaian and the others, "Youngest, don't be afraid. I will have the militia come to pick you up. I want to see who dares to rob you on the road."
Zhou Huaian said gratefully: "Thank you Secretary Lin, this will make us more courageous."
Zhou Yiding showed what he said to Secretary Lin again, "Do you have another question?"
Before Zhou Huaian asked, the other one told him what had happened in detail, and Zhou Yiding wrote it down.
Secretary Lin nodded and said, "Let them put their fingerprints on it and then have Captain Lin take them to the town police station."
Zhou Yiding looked at the black-faced man, who pressed it with his bleeding hand, and then reached out his other hand to wipe the corner of his mouth, leaving a bloody handprint.
At this time, the villagers who had gone to chase the robbers came back with several robbers. The leader was the militia company commander. Secretary Lin gave him the evidence of the two robbers and asked him to send these bandits to the town and hand them over to the police station for handling.
Captain Lin nodded in agreement and looked at Secretary Lin a little embarrassedly, "Second Dad, we have to stay in town tonight. I don't have a penny on me."
Secretary Lin himself did not have a penny on him. When they came out to build the road, they had no intention of bringing any money with them. So he had to borrow ten yuan from Zhou Huaian and gave it to Company Commander Lin, and also gave them the hunting rifle.
Captain Lin, along with several militiamen, escorted Black Face and the captured robbers and headed towards Baicaoping.
Zhou Yiding, Li Wu and Xu Hongbing pulled out the tire that was pressed underneath and started to change it.
Lin Dazhuang pulled Zhou Huaian and said, "Youngest, I was the one who heard the gunshots just now. Big brother said I heard it wrongly, but I have super hearing and I can't be wrong, right?"
"Yes!" Zhou Huaian smiled and took out the remaining half pack of cigarettes and gave it to him. "Our Dazhuang brother is famous for his sharp ears. He must have heard it right."
"Hey hey!" Lin Dazhuang showed off his cigarette to Secretary Lin, "Brother, I said I won't be wrong. Look, the youngest one gave me a cigarette. This one is good to smoke and doesn't stink!"
Secretary Lin glared at him and said, "You should smoke less, or your second father will scold you again when you go back."
Lin Dazhuang pulled him and took out two cigarettes, "Brother, I'll smoke less, only this much a day, don't complain!"
Secretary Lin suppressed his laughter and said, "Okay, I won't complain. Go and take good care of the wild animals we left in front of us, as well as the bamboo baskets and bamboo baskets, to prevent them from being stolen."
"Oh oh!" Lin Dazhuang hurriedly ran back carrying his hunting rifle.
After Zhou Yiding and Li Wu changed the tires and the villagers filled the pit, Zhou Huaian called on Secretary Lin and the villagers to climb onto the tractor, and the group staggered forward.
When we walked to a place about 100 meters away, we saw Lin Dazhuang sitting on a carrying pole. When he saw the tractor coming, he jumped up and said, "Youngest, I want to ride on the tractor."
Zhou Huaian nodded repeatedly, "Hurry up and pack your things and put them on the truck bed. I'll let you sit next to me."
Secretary Lin and several villagers jumped off the tractor to help pack up the baskets. They also shot two wild goats and a bunch of pheasants and rabbits.
Zhou Huaian found that the bumpy dirt roads had been filled and compacted by the villagers, making it much easier for tractors to drive on them.
When the sun set, the group finally arrived at Baicaopo.
A group of children cheered and ran after the tractor, all the way to Secretary Lin’s house. The adults came soon after, and smiled as they looked at the things on the tractor.
Zhou Huaian and three others brought down the sacks and bamboo baskets with the word "Baicaopo" written on them and began distributing things according to the list. They paid those who owed them money.
Lin Dazhuang held the yellow rubber shoes, rain boots, cotton and cloth and smiled with his yellow teeth showing. "Mom, old man, I bought a lot. I will share them with you when I get home!"
Mother Lin wiped away the tears from her eyes and said, "Our Da Zhuang is the most capable."
After more than an hour of hard work, they finally distributed all the items and settled all the debts. Then they lit a bonfire in the dam outside Secretary Lin's house and roasted goats and rabbits. (End of this chapter)
