Chapter 182 The Dust Settles



The group tried to resist, but Xiao Yuheng and his men had plenty of manpower and weapons, far surpassing them. They were immediately captured.

Chen Yong led the team to escort the people back, while Xiao Yuheng stayed behind to dig for treasure. Thinking about what Xu Zhi had said, his curiosity was greatly aroused.

I heard they've searched all over Xiaowang Village, but still haven't found any trace of the "treasure." I wonder if there might be any here.

"dig."

The young men were physically strong, and at Xiao Yuheng's command, everyone started digging.

Everyone started to get excited when a hard object struck something.

"There's something there!"

Be careful.

What those people covet must be something extraordinary; it would be bad if they accidentally damaged it.

There was even more stuff here than in Xiaowang Village. It took five hours of digging to bring everything back to light.

To their surprise, in addition to the precious gold and white items, there were also many wooden guns and several boxes of bullets.

Looking at the markings, it goes without saying who left these things.

"Fuck you!"

One of them couldn't help but curse out loud. Looking at these things, it was easy to recall what had happened in those years.

At this time, Chen Yong also successfully escorted the person back to the camp. After reporting the matter, he came back to meet Xiao Yuheng and the others, just in time for the transportation job.

"Be careful not to break anything."

Although the current atmosphere is strange, and antiques have become death warrants in the eyes of many, these are incriminating evidence and cannot be compromised in any way.

"Were these all dug out from that place?"

Zhao Dalong was a rough and uncultured man. He joined the army when he was a teenager in order to get enough to eat. He relied on his courage to charge into the hail of bullets and got to where he is today. He had never seen so many "good things" before.

Xiao Yuheng nodded. "Have those people given their consent?"

Zhao Dalong nodded, "A few cowards have given in, but they're just small fry. They don't know any key information. That guy named Qiangzi is still pretty stubborn."

Xiao Yuheng sneered, "They really won't shed tears until they see the coffin." He said, "I'll go take a look."

As soon as everyone left, Zhao Dalong started calling his former boss to report the matter.

When Xiao Yuheng arrived at the interrogation room, two people were so frightened they wanted to urinate, and they kept pushing the blame onto Qiangzi.

"Sir, we really don't know anything about this. It was Qiangzi who contacted the other party. We just wanted to get some money to spend. We really didn't think about anything else."

Even if they said that, Xiao Yuheng and the others, with their good hearing, heard everything they said on the mountain. How could they let them escape legal punishment so easily?

Seeing that he could no longer get anything useful out of these people, Xiao Yuheng went into the interrogation room where Qiangzi was.

Qiangzi was noticeably more nervous when he came in than at the beginning. He knew this man was the leader and guessed that the things on the mountain were probably gone, otherwise this man wouldn't have reappeared here after several hours.

"I heard your wife is about to give birth?"

One sentence made Qiangzi want to stand up instantly, but the comrade next to him pressed him back down, "Behave yourself."

Qiangzi was surprised that their news spread so quickly, even knowing that his wife was pregnant.

"Don't go looking for her."

They had been married for several years before she finally conceived. If she knew about his affair, who knows what might happen.

Xiao Yuheng found it ironic. If someone truly cared about their family and was truly responsible for them, why would they become a spy?

Doesn't he know what it means for the whole family if the truth comes out?

No, he knew, but he still took the gamble.

Such a person doesn't deserve any sympathy.

"Don't you find that ridiculous? You have the nerve to pretend to be a good husband after what you did? Do you think your wife will have to live a life like this, and how will her unborn child cope?"

Qiangzi's face grew increasingly grim. He was well aware of all this, which was why he could only stubbornly refuse to reveal anything.

But he understood even more clearly that the situation was no longer something he could hide from the truth.

"If I cooperate, could you please not hurt my family?"

"It depends on your performance."

In fact, if Qiangzi's family hadn't known about it or been involved, they wouldn't have done anything.

After hesitating for a long time, Qiangzi finally slowly told the story.

Half an hour later, he slumped down completely. "I've told you everything I know. Can you give me a lighter sentence?"

His child hasn't been born yet, and he wants to see the baby.

Xiao Yuheng thought for a moment and said, "We need to verify whether what you said is true."

As for whether he can receive a lighter punishment, that's not something he can decide, and of course he won't agree to it lightly.

The military acted swiftly; within days, Qiangzi's entire supply chain was wiped out.

Not only that, but it was also discovered that the same thing had happened in several other places as well.

Of course, the local authorities investigated this, but it didn't seem to have much to do with Xiao Yuheng.

"Good lad, you've done it again this time."

Zhao Dalong looked at Xiao Yuheng with obvious fondness. If things continued like this, Xiao Yuheng would be promoted to his position in just a few years. It was truly a case of the new generation surpassing the old, and the old generation dying on the beach.

Xiao Yuheng was not complacent; he considered these things to be expected.

He was so busy these past few days that he didn't even have time to think about Gu An'an. It wasn't until he finished and lay in bed that he carefully took out the photo of the two of them from his chest, gently stroking it with his eyes full of longing.

Meanwhile, Gu An'an had gotten used to his absence and was now truly busy.

Just as she had expected, the success of one supply and marketing cooperative attracted the attention of other supply and marketing cooperatives. They could purchase from others, but finding channels would also waste time. It was much easier to contact Gu An'an, who had given them her phone number. One by one, they called her.

This kept Qin Rui very busy, as he had to run to Xiaowang Village every now and then.

When the commune secretary learned of this, he immediately reduced his workload and transferred someone to their office, and that's how he became the liaison officer for Xiaowang Village.

"Xiao Qin, another order?"

Every time the village chief saw Qin Rui riding his bike this way, he would smile like a Maitreya Buddha.

"Yes, this is the quantity we need for today."

The village chief immediately had someone pour water for Xiao Qin, which gave him time to look at the order form.

The more they looked, the happier they became. If this continued, their village's stock would be sold out in no time. It seemed like it was time to consider sourcing from other villages.

Of course, this matter will definitely be handled by those with whom we have a good relationship.

However, he didn't say he didn't care about the other villages. As long as he had absolute confidence in Gu An'an, their orders would definitely be as plentiful as snowflakes after the Guangzhou trade fair. He was just afraid that they wouldn't have enough to sell.

Gu An'an: ...I don't know where this inexplicable confidence comes from.
