Chapter 769
Yu Xiaoye had a generation gap with the wives, and he had just arrived in Beijing and didn't have any children, so he couldn't talk to them. He didn't try to talk to them, and just watched the show quietly from the side.
Instead, they were full of curiosity about Yu Xiaoye, wondering how this girl managed to subdue Zhou Ziheng, the notoriously difficult person.
They took the initiative to talk to Yu Xiaoye, and Yu Xiaoye had to respond with a few words. She had nothing to do, so she continued to watch the show.
Zhou Ziheng looked over here from time to time, worried that Yu Xiaoye would not be able to fit in and would feel bored, but seeing Yu Xiaoye listening with her ears perked up and relish, he was afraid that this group of wives would teach his young wife bad things.
Huang Weiliang had long noticed Zhou Ziheng's actions, and finally couldn't help but smirked:
"See? I originally thought this guy was a man who remained calm even when a woman offered him a hand. He had no interest in women. I never saw through him before, but now his true nature is exposed. How many times has he peeked at his wife in just this short while?"
Jiang Shang, who was wearing a police uniform, glanced at Yu Xiaoye with a smile:
"Anyone with such a young and beautiful wife would be unable to resist taking a few more glances. If it were me, I would peek at her more frequently than Hengzi."
Zhou Ziheng was a little disgusted by Jiang Shang's inappropriate joke and said coldly:
"Then you should look more at your own wife."
Jiang Shang chuckled again:
"As for the one in our family, I can tell how many wrinkles on her face and how many circles of fat are on her waist even with my eyes closed."
Xu Guoguang and Huang Weiliang laughed along.
After laughing, Huang Weiliang said:
"Come on, Jiawen was tricked into marrying you when she was less than 18 years old. She was a famous beauty back then and has given birth to four children for you over the years. What else do you want?"
Jiang Shang smiled without saying anything, took a puff of cigarette, and changed the subject:
"Oh, let me tell you something strange."
“-------”
Several people looked at Jiang Shang. They knew that he worked in the public security department and often heard a lot of strange stories. They all wanted to hear what strange things he was talking about.
Jiang Shang flicked the ash off his cigarette, subconsciously lowered his voice, and said seriously:
"Recently, a batch of fish from nowhere has appeared in the capital. It's very strange."
Zhou Ziheng's eyes flickered slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and listened to him continue without any expression.
"This batch of goods is very strange. It suddenly appeared on the black market and then disappeared without any warning. It is very abnormal."
Huang Weiliang was a little disappointed:
"What's so strange about this? It's just some fish. Who knows, someone might have broken through the ice and fished them out of the river to sell."
"Do you know how many there are?"
"How many?"
"I estimated it to be around 10,000 kilograms."
"Tens of thousands?!"
Everyone was surprised at this moment.
Even Zhou Ziheng was a little frightened.
It is obviously impossible that tens of thousands of kilograms of fish could be caught from the river in the capital.
Even if you broke the ice on all the rivers in the capital at this time, it would be hard to catch so many fish.
Huang Weiliang stared and asked:
"You mean to say that you have seized all these tens of thousands of kilograms of fish of unknown origin?"
Jiang Shang smiled mysteriously:
"Of course, we didn't directly seize the fish. These fish have already been circulated among the public, and we can't check them even if we want to."
Jiang Shang only said that these tens of thousands of kilograms of fish had already flowed into the hands of the people, but he did not say how or by what means they had flowed into the hands of the people.
But looking at Jiang Shang's smug expression, no matter how it spread to the people, Jiang Shang must have benefited from it.
Jiang Shang continued:
"This shipment arrived suddenly, without any warning. Regardless of where it came from, it's impossible for tens of thousands of kilograms of fish to enter the capital without any rumors. But the fact is, it appeared out of nowhere."
Huang Weiliang was a little bit unconvinced when he heard what he said.
"It must be that you didn't find the way here."
"No, Weiliang, you didn't understand me. It's not a question of whether I wanted to investigate or not, but this massive shipment of fish appeared right under the noses of both our public security system and the black market bosses. We had no prior knowledge of it, and suddenly one day, this shipment of fish made its way onto the black market. It came and went without a trace. Any shipment over 200 kilograms circulating in the market is something we wouldn't be unaware of, let alone tens of thousands. Do you understand me?"
"Then why don't you check his origins carefully?"
"There's no need to check—" Jiang Shang answered cryptically, then took a sip of tea and stopped talking.
The others looked at each other, probably guessing something. They thought that this batch of goods must have gone into Jiang Shang's pocket, or Jiang Shang had benefited from it, so there was no need to investigate, because if they did, they would definitely be found out. Jiang Shang would never shoot himself in the foot, so they did not pursue the matter to the end.
But Jiang Shang was still curious about it, so he couldn't help but tell these people about it today.
If the people present had any knowledge of the situation among the people, they would naturally know how popular this kind of big fish was during this period. However, Huang Weiliang and Xu Guoguang had just returned from the army thousands of miles away and knew nothing about what was happening in the capital.
Zhou Ziheng was busy running around for the college and had no time to take care of other things.
Jia Zan lived with his parents, and his mother took care of his daily life. She hardly asked about the things happening in the vegetable market, so none of them had ever heard of the big fish that Jiang Shang mentioned.
Zhou Ziheng only learned about this matter after listening to Jiang Shang's words.
He turned his head again and looked at Yu Xiaoye, his eyes full of worry, but the girl was still listening to the gossip as if nothing had happened.
After a while, the Jiang family's nanny brought the dishes to the table and came over and said:
"The food is ready, we can eat now."
Jiang Shang was the first to stand up:
"Come, let's eat. We have good wine and good food today. We won't leave until we are drunk!"
On the other side, Jiang Shang's wife Bai Jiawen also stood up and greeted:
"Okay, time to eat. I've been hungry for a long time.
Come and have a look, we have delicious food at home today!"
Huang Weiliang's wife Xu Can asked curiously:
"What delicious food has come out in the capital?"
"Come and see for yourself."
Huang Weiliang's wife, Xu Guoguang's wife, and Zhou Ziheng's wife all followed Jiang Shang's wife to the dinner table.
Yu Xiaoye inadvertently looked up at Zhou Ziheng and saw that Zhou Ziheng was also looking at him. No, it would be more accurate to say "staring" at him.
Yu Xiaoye suddenly felt uneasy, not knowing what mistake he had made.
Could it be that Zhou Ziheng was unhappy because their conversation didn't go well?
At this moment, a cry of surprise came from the dining table:
"Wow, what a big fish!?"
"Wow, this fish is so long?"
The exclamations about the big fish made Yu Xiaoye's heart skip a beat.
She also looked towards the dining table, and suddenly saw a huge fish swimming like a dragon on the long dining table, almost extending from one end to the other.
This big fish was divided into four sections and placed in four fish plates, connected head to tail. It looked about the same height as a five or six-year-old child.
Compared with this big fish, all other delicacies are just a backdrop.
Yu Xiaoye was dumbfounded:
Grass? !
Am I fucking dazzled?
Why does this fish look so familiar?!
