Chapter 75 75 Apart from other things, those gold bars alone would make him...
Aunt Wang did not deliberately lower her voice, and the people in the room could hear it clearly.
The guy named Qi was arrested?
Who has the surname Qi?
Pan Dingfeng had a bad feeling in his heart. His face, which was swollen and red from being slapped, turned pale in an instant. He wanted to come over and ask, but his butt felt like it weighed a thousand pounds, making him unable to move.
Ding Nianjun also felt a sudden chill, especially after seeing Pan Dingfeng's sudden change in expression, the creepy feeling became even stronger. Fortunately, she was still somewhat calm. She suppressed her panic and pretended to be relaxed and asked Ding Guo who had turned back: "Big sister, who was arrested?"
Ding Guo smiled at her: "Didn't Aunt Wang say that his surname is Qi?"
Ding Nianjun was still looking at Ding Guo, waiting for her next words.
Then what?
Ding Guo seemed not to notice the expectation in her eyes, and just looked at Ding Dayong: "Dayong, are you full?"
Ding Dayong took out a blue and white checkered handkerchief from his trouser pocket and wiped his mouth, then stood up and said, "Sister, I'm full!"
Ding Guo had just tilted his head to signal that they could leave when he heard Ding Nianjun ask anxiously, "Sister, which Qi was arrested? Is there something wrong?"
How could Ding Guo not know what she wanted to ask?
Pan Dingfeng on the other side was also looking over here eagerly, unable to hide a bit of panic on his face.
I just don't want to talk about it. Ding Guo smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Let's talk about your marriage. I wish you a smooth marriage."
The more she acted like this, the more panicked Pan Dingfeng became. He ignored the pain on his cheek and stood up to ask, "Comrade Ding Guo, is the person who was arrested Deputy Director Qi of the Revolutionary Committee?"
Ding Guo smiled at him and said, "Who is Deputy Director Qi? Do I have any grudge against him?"
Pan Dingfeng clenched his fists and looked at Ding Guo suddenly. When he met the pair of eyes that could see through people's minds, he suddenly felt a sense of shame.
What does Dingguo mean?
What did she want to prove? What did she want herself to admit?
Pan Dingfeng knew that Ding Guo probably didn't believe Qi Guangming's confession that day, and she was doubting herself.
Pan Dingfeng, who usually had a calm mentality, was now in a panic. He scrolled frantically in the background of Ding Guo's system, contributing a lot of internal friction value.
Pan Dingfeng's mind was in turmoil, and he didn't want to respond to this, but there was a fool next to him, so Ding Jianguo blurted out, "Sister, didn't Brother Dingfeng just say that he also invited Deputy Director Qi today? Deputy Director Qi was at the police station that day..."
"Shut up!" Ding Guo said coldly, "You're the only one with a mouth, right?"
Ding Jianguo was stunned for a moment, not understanding why these words could lead to a scolding. However, there was one thing he understood very well, which was that it was fortunate that Ding Guo was standing at a certain distance from him. If he was standing next to him, Ding Guo would not have shouted at him, but would have slapped him in the face to interrupt him.
Why?
Ding Guo looked at Pan Dingfeng and asked again with a smile: "It seems that you can't give an answer." He looked at Ding Nianjun again, "Tsk tsk, look at the man you like, he is also irresponsible."
Ding Nianjun's face turned pale.
Everyone has the answer in their hearts, but no one wants to say it out loud.
Pan Dingfeng did the same. He watched Ding Guo leave without daring to say a word.
Ding Guo slammed the door and left with Ding Dayong.
Pan Dingfeng didn't care about the pain on his face, nor how embarrassed he looked. He turned around and whispered to Ding Zhigang, "Uncle Ding, I want to make a phone call..."
Ding Zhigang looked at him deeply and asked abruptly, "Did Deputy Director Qi hire someone to harm Ding Guo? Was that your idea?"
"Dad!" Ding Nianjun said hurriedly, "This matter has nothing to do with Dingfeng."
She knew that this matter was arranged by Dingfeng, but she would never admit it.
She was afraid that Pan Dingfeng would admit it impulsively, so she quickly stopped him and gave Dingfeng some time to calm down and buffer.
Pan Dingfeng's mind did suddenly heat up just now. Although he didn't want to admit it directly, he didn't intend to deny it either. He calmed down after being interrupted by Ding Nianjun and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Ding, I don't know about this. If I knew that Uncle Qi had this idea, I would definitely stop it."
Ding Zhigang looked at him deeply.
He didn't know? But if he didn't tell Qi Guangming about the conflict between him and Ding Guo, how could Qi Guangming deal with Ding Guo?
So, he didn't say it explicitly?
"Let's go. I'll take you to make a phone call first." Ding Zhigang went out with a sullen face, and Pan Dingfeng and Ding Nianjun hurriedly followed.
Yue Hongmei gave Ding Jianguo a wink, and Ding Jianguo nodded and followed.
After everyone left, Ding Jianshe asked his mother quietly, "What does that mean? Deputy Director Qi fell? Was it Ding Guo who did it?"
Does Ding Guo have this ability?
Yue Hongmei didn't want to admit that Ding Guo had this ability, but if it had nothing to do with Ding Guo, why would someone come to her house specifically to deliver this letter?
Lu Xiaomei seemed to be thinking about something. She had heard Nianjun say before that the eldest sister who came back from the countryside always targeted her. When she was reported, Nianjun said that her family suspected that it was Ding Guo who did it, because Ding Guo resented Nianjun for taking the position that should have belonged to her and was not on good terms with Nianjun.
But if you want to report Ding Nianjun, why do you have to involve her?
She was punished by the factory because of this. If Nianjun’s boyfriend hadn’t helped her find someone to speak up for her, she would still be sweeping toilets today.
But this is just speculation, because we still don't understand how their affairs were leaked. No evidence, physical or witness, has been found after such a long time.
On the other side, after making the call, Pan Dingfeng experienced a feeling of ice and fire.
He felt a chill on his back, but his face was still burning hot from the two slaps. However, he didn't care about that. He just couldn't understand how Uncle Qi became a prisoner overnight!
And what about Ding Guo? Why did he specifically report the news to Ding Guo? Was it Ding Guo who wanted to take revenge on Uncle Qi and brought Uncle Qi down?
How could Ding Guo have such great ability? It is impossible that all the things that were dug up about Uncle Qi were discovered by Ding Guo, right?
Seeing that he looked serious, Ding Zhigang was eager to ask, but his colleague on duty was still beside him, so he suppressed his curiosity and watched Pan Dingfeng make another call.
The second call was to the capital. The phone rang for a long time, so long that it was only picked up when it was about to hang up.
After hearing what his son said, Pan's father also frowned.
Although he didn't want to get involved in his son's affairs with the Ding family, he couldn't ignore Qi Guangming and had to find someone to ask about him.
After all, he took the blame for his son last time, so he must remember this favor.
I just don’t know if this matter is related to the eldest daughter of the Ding family.
If it was really that incident that caused all these troubles, Father Pan wanted to beat his second son to death. He couldn't help but scold him, "Look at what you have done!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Pan Dingfeng knew that Uncle Qi was implicated by him, and he was a little uneasy. He hung up the phone, listened to Ding Zhigang thank the colleague on duty, followed him out of the office, and heard Ding Zhigang whispered: "What's the situation with Deputy Director Qi?"
When Pan Dingfeng asked, he was concerned about other people in the office, so he just listened, and his responses were just "yeah", "yeah", "ok", "I know", and he didn't reveal any other information. When he called the capital, he just said that Uncle Qi was being investigated and asked his father to help ask, but he didn't mention anything about what he heard.
Rather cautious.
call!
Pan Dingfeng let out a light breath, trying to clear his mind, but it really didn't make him clear-headed. He was still a little confused and was also overwhelmed by what Qi Guangming had said.
Before this, he really didn't know that Qi Guangming had done so many things.
Bribery, fabrication of false cases, contracting the black market, collusion with others to secretly sell grain... the evidence is conclusive.
How could he not be caught with evidence? They raided two of his bases in a row, and also found a large amount of cash, several imported and domestic watches, gold bars, account books, etc. in his home.
Pan Dingfeng didn’t understand why Qi Guangming had to keep an account book, and he didn’t know what was recorded in it.
However, he did not want to tell the Ding family too much. After all, he was not sure to what extent his father could help Uncle Qi. So he smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. They said that they found a discrepancy in a case that Uncle Ding had helped someone with before, and they need to re-investigate it."
Ding Zhigang was not smart in some things, but he was not stupid either. He knew Pan Dingfeng was not telling the truth after just one listen. Although he did not continue to ask, he felt a little unhappy.
In the capital, after hanging up the phone, Pan's father started to contact people to inquire. After asking a lot of questions, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
He knew a little about Qi Guangming's affairs in Fengning, but not much. He also knew that Qi Guangming had some dirty hands, but as long as it was not too excessive, it would not be a big deal. He did not expect that he was involved in so many things. He even partnered with his brother-in-law to use his position to collect grain in the name of public funds and sell it privately. In order to facilitate the sale of the grain, he even managed a black market himself.
Not to mention that the amount of bribes the man took was much larger than he knew.
Not to mention anything else, those gold bars alone would be enough to doom him.
“What a mess!”
Father Pan stood up and paced back and forth in the study. He first went through the things that Qi Guangming had given him when he came to the capital or when Dingfeng went to Fengning over the years. This thought made him break out in a cold sweat.
There are some things he knows, but are there any that he doesn’t know?
"Don't worry, don't worry!" Father Pan forced himself to calm down and figured out how to deal with the matter.
Qi Guangming cannot be ignored. Even if we don't consider the things Qi Guangming sent, we have to consider that he just took the blame for Ding Feng two days ago. This favor cannot be denied.
Thinking of that favor, Father Pan picked up his phone and made another call. He had to find out if this matter was related to the previous one!
My son didn't mention it on the phone, but I couldn't help but consider it.
Here, Ding Guo and Ding Dayong rode out of the family compound, and Ding Dayong asked anxiously: "Sister, who is this Qi? Why is the police station involved?"
Ding Guo, who was sitting in the back seat, slapped her forehead. Ding Dayong didn't know about this yet. Just as she was about to explain, she saw a familiar figure standing at the intersection ahead. It was Xiao Hong. Ding Guo said, "I'll tell you in detail when we get home."
She jumped out of the car and went over to talk to Xiao Hong.
"You came here at this time. You probably haven't eaten yet, right? I'll treat you to a bite to eat at the state-owned restaurant."
Xiao Hong smiled and took Ding Guo's arm, saying, "We've eaten. You don't have to treat me to a meal. My uncle said he would treat you." She added, "I thought I wouldn't see you today. I thought I'd wait another half an hour. If you don't come out, I'll go back first."
Ding Guo's revenge on Qi Guangming was revenge, and so was her uncle? To be honest, her uncle's hatred for the Qi family was deeper, and this time Ding Guo helped his family.
"Let's put things one way or the other. Since I'm asking you to run errands during a holiday, I must treat you to a meal at least." Ding Guo said with a smile.
"Then my uncle will have to treat me, and then I'll give him a good beating." Xiao Hong blinked, "In addition to helping my uncle get rid of an enemy, this incident also made my uncle a great contribution. If there is any job change in the future, with this contribution, he will definitely be promoted."
This niece-brand cotton-padded jacket is a bit leaky.
Ding Guo smiled and shook his head, no longer arguing with her about this matter, and asked something else: "Did your uncle tell me when I should go see Qi Guangming?"
Xiao Hong: "I mentioned this, but I didn't say when. I'll tell you when it's arranged. Now I have to interrogate you first."
Ding Guo nodded. That was true. They had just captured the man, so they had to hurry up and interrogate him. However, Qi Guangming would probably not cooperate. If he pleaded guilty easily, his backers and connections would be of no use.
I just don't know if Qi Guangming's connections will come forward to help him at this time.
The risk is not small. If it succeeds, it's fine. But if it fails, Xiao Haifeng will find some evidence against him and dig out something, and he will be implicated as well.
Ding Guo smiled and said, "Okay, no rush, let Uncle Xiao arrange it slowly."
Xiao Hong left, and the Ding siblings continued to walk home. Ding Dayong was anxious and couldn't help asking again: "Sister, what's the matter?"
How come he doesn’t know the guy with the surname Qi?
Today his sister posted a note on the door saying that she was going back to the steel plant’s staff quarters to celebrate the holidays. If he had any questions, he could go to the steel plant’s staff quarters to find her. He didn’t think much about it at the time and just asked casually. Her sister said she was afraid that her friends would come to find her. He didn’t expect that his sister was waiting for news. It sounded like something serious.
The matter was settled, and Ding Guo didn't hide it anymore. She simply told Ding Dayong what happened that day and what happened afterwards. Ding Dayong was angry and distressed, and his eyes turned red with anxiety: "Sister, you should have told me earlier."
If he had known this earlier, he would have put a sack on the guy named Qi first.
"Sister, is it the guy named Pan who instigated this behind the scenes?" Ding Dayong was not stupid. Combining what Pan Dingfeng and the others said today, this guy named Pan knew that deputy director, so it might be him who asked Qi Guangming to do it.
"My grandparents know about this, right? If they knew, they would have rushed to the station to pick up the Pan family today and continued to be relatives with them..."
I know they don’t value my eldest sister and treat her badly, but this is too much of a disregard for her!
Ding Dayong raised his hand to wipe his eyes, his voice choking: "You look down on us country folks all day long. No one in our village is as spineless as my grandpa and grandma!"
Ding Guo patted him on the back and said, "Don't be angry. I'm not angry at all. Besides, I, your sister, didn't suffer any loss. Isn't this just revenge?"
In addition to feeling heartbroken and angry, Ding Dayong was more afraid.
Fortunately, his sister had some skills. What if she didn't have any skills? He didn't dare to think about it, didn't dare to think about it.
I really wanted to stab that Qi guy with a knife. He had such a deep hatred for her that he hired several young men to follow his sister. He was planning to completely ruin his sister's life.
"It's okay, don't worry. We won't let anyone who wants to harm your sister have an easy time."
Ding Dayong nodded and repeatedly reminded Ding Guo to be careful and to tell him if he had any problems in the future, and he would be able to help. Even if he couldn't help much, he could always help with small things.
After returning home, Ding Dayong began to practice silently.
Ding Guo didn't stop him. It was good that the child was willing to work hard. No matter what the motivation was, as long as it could push Dayong to move forward.
Now that he has improved his skills, she, as his elder sister, will feel more at ease when he is away on business trips, right?
Xiao Haifeng didn't make Ding Guo wait too long. The next afternoon, when Ding Guo came out of the factory, he saw Xiao Hong waiting there. Xiao Hong asked Ding Guo to wait at the back door of the Revolutionary Committee before eight o'clock in the evening.
