Chapter 1565 It's all about money.
After Zheng Qiang got into the car, he didn't say anything. Seeing that he looked like he had lost his soul, Li Ye gently comforted him, "It's okay, Lao Zheng. You'll get better. As long as the industrial base is there, you'll always be able to recover."
Zheng Qiang glanced at the wallpaper, smiled bitterly, and said, "I didn't mean to the factory manager. I just can't believe that someone would take a life for money."
Li Ye was silent for a few seconds, then said in a deep voice, "Because even a rabbit will bite when cornered, those criminals must have frequently encountered angry rabbits during their crimes, so they resorted to the most extreme and cruel methods."
“.”
Zheng Qiang stared blankly at Li Ye, as if he hadn't understood.
In fact, Li Ye only understood this after hearing an explanation from a friend in a relevant department in his previous life.
Even the most ruthless criminals are actually afraid when they commit crimes, and a person who fiercely resists can be very powerful in combat.
Let's not even talk about Brother Long, or the extreme case of a bloody incident caused by a dog's life, where someone kills in retaliation. Even when it comes to despicable acts against women, the perpetrator has to knock her unconscious first, otherwise, the perpetrator has a 95% chance of not succeeding.
Those thugs who used adzes to ram people weren't necessarily that vicious at first, but after encountering a few fierce rabbits, their mentality changed.
Driven by greed and for their own safety, these people resorted to the despicable tactic of sneak attacks from behind, and once they started, they couldn't stop.
Sigh~
Several people in the carriage sighed, their hearts heavy.
Over the years, both Qu Qingyou and Zheng Qiang have lived a comfortable life. No one would have thought that a person's life might only be worth a few hundred yuan.
Li Ye couldn't help but turn his head to look out of the car, wondering if what he had said to Zheng Qiang in the restroom had been inappropriate.
With such a large and successful business, hiring a few hundred hardworking ordinary workers shouldn't be a big deal, right?
Seeing that there were hardly any pedestrians on the street at nine o'clock in the middle of summer, Li Ye felt a sense of responsibility that he could not shirk.
Suddenly, Li Ye, with his sharp eyesight, saw a figure flickering in the darkness.
"Stop the car! Reverse!"
Li Ye subconsciously gave the command, and Qu Qingyou, who was driving, responded quickly, braked, and reversed.
Li Ye pointed to an intersection: "Turn the car around and shine the headlights over there."
Qu Qingyi turned the car around without saying a word, turned on the high beams and shone the lights into the small street.
"Hiss~"
Even though Qu Qingyou and Jiang Shiqi were both veterans who had seen blood, they couldn't help but gasp at this moment.
A group of people were beating a burly man on the street, while behind him, a woman lay on the ground, her life hanging in the balance.
Those people all had weapons in their hands; they might not be the kind of dagger that would strike fear into people's hearts, but they were definitely murder weapons.
"Beep beep beep~"
This time, without waiting for Li Ye's instructions, Qu Qingyou honked the car horn.
His primary responsibility was to protect Li Ye's safety; otherwise, he would have just floored the gas pedal and sped over there.
The urgent honking of car horns silenced the crowd on the other side for a moment, but they immediately turned on Li Ye as if provoking hatred.
Li Ye turned to Jiang Shiqi and asked, "Did you bring the Truth? If you did, hurry up and listen to the sound."
"I brought it."
Jiang Shiqi quickly lifted the back seat and took out the shotgun registered with the security department of Jingnan Group.
"Bang!"
The sparks from the shotgun were particularly noticeable in the darkness. The group only hesitated for a second before scattering like birds.
Back in the 1990s, this type of shotgun was standard issue for certain groups of people in northern China, and its deterrent power was extraordinary.
After the group dispersed, the burly man who had been so fierce just moments before collapsed to the ground.
Li Ye then said to Jiang Shiqi, "Old Qu, drive. The two of us will go down and take a look. You keep an eye on the surroundings."
"clear."
Li Ye and Jiang Shiqi got out of the car. Jiang Shiqi was in charge of keeping watch, while Li Ye went to ask about the big man.
Zheng Qiang opened the car door and got out to help, but unexpectedly stumbled and fell to the ground.
His legs went weak.
Not everyone can be as strong as the tough guys in movies. When faced with such situations, many people are not as brave as they imagine themselves to be.
Li Ye walked up to the burly man and asked in a low voice, "Master, how are you? Do you need to call the police or an ambulance?"
"Please, please save my wife, please!"
The big man's voice started to tremble.
Using the car headlights, Li Ye noticed that the woman lying on the ground was bleeding from her head.
The woman was not unconscious; she was lying motionless on the ground because she was holding a three- or four-year-old child in her arms.
After the woman came to her senses, she cried out to Li Ye, "I'm alright, save my man first!"
"I'm fine, what's wrong with me?"
The man said he was fine, but Li Ye discovered that the big man was actually in worse shape, with at least four or five cuts on his body. The fact that he had been able to hold on until now was not only due to the effects of adrenaline, but also because of his responsibility to protect his wife and children.
"Then get in our car quickly, I'll take you to the hospital."
At this moment, Li Ye couldn't care less about "it's better to avoid trouble"; with human lives at stake, who cared about such things?
"Zheng Qiang, you give directions. Lao Qu, drive. I'll get in the trunk."
Because Li Ye's car was a sedan, it was difficult for seven people to squeeze in, so Li Ye simply stuffed himself into the trunk.
In the trunk, he used his mobile phone to make several calls to the emergency number and the police. After thinking for a moment, he then called Shang Bin's assistant, Geng Yunping.
After all, there was a loud "bang" just now. If they investigate thoroughly, it's better for the group to step in and make things easier.
When they arrived at the hospital, the burly man had already passed out, the woman needed to be examined and given emergency treatment, and the child was crying loudly in fear, leaving Li Ye and the others at a loss.
Fortunately, the woman did not faint. She had given Zheng Qiang her contact address beforehand, and Li Ye made many phone calls to finally get the message over with.
The woman's parents-in-law arrived at the hospital around the same time as the police. The mother-in-law, who was quite old, knelt down before Li Ye upon seeing him.
In this day and age, how could someone as honest and simple as Li Ye let someone kneel down before him?
Li Ye quickly helped the other person up, explaining that he had just been passing by and it was just a casual thing to do.
The woman's mother-in-law began to sob, "There are so many people living on both sides of the street, why couldn't anyone help us? If it weren't for your kindness today, my son would be dead!"
The woman's father-in-law also sighed repeatedly, thanking Li Ye and the others while expressing his regret.
"I told them to take a taxi back, but he took advantage of his size and didn't take it seriously. He deserved this misfortune."
“.”
It's all about money!
Li Ye swallowed hard, let out a long sigh, and then turned to Zheng Qiang and said, "Zheng Qiang, you should keep an eye on things. If there are any skilled workers willing to work in the south, as long as they aren't the bad kind, report them!"
