Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Zhao...
Chapter 5
Zhao Desheng, the second-in-command of the grain station, and his cousin Meng Jun, who worked as a grain collector at the station, had tampered with the grain scales, deceiving their superiors and subordinates and enriching themselves for many years.
There are several villages under Nanshan Town. Every autumn during the harvest, Zhao Desheng and Meng Jun would take advantage of their large scales and jobs to embezzle a thousand kilograms of grain, and then sell the embezzled grain back to the grain station.
From the original owner's memory, we know that the money and food coupons were divided into two parts, and Zhao Desheng's share was kept in the office of the grain station.
There are still two or three months before the autumn harvest. If she uses the space to go to Zhao Desheng's office, even if Zhao Desheng finds that the money and tickets are missing, he will not dare to say anything.
In order to make up for his losses, Zhao Desheng will become even more greedy during this year's autumn harvest.
If she wrote twenty or thirty anonymous letters at this time, informing everyone from top to bottom of what Zhao Desheng had done, wouldn't that be a perfect way to catch him red-handed?
The hallmark of this era was writing big-character posters. If others could write, she could do the same. Compared to those fabricated accusations, she could represent justice for once.
However, if Zhao Desheng were to engage in corruption in this era, not only would his career prospects be ruined, he would probably have to sing "Tears Behind Bars" for several years before he could regain his freedom.
Serves you right!
If the original owner had gone to college, she would have been able to get a good job after graduation and then marry a man she loved. Regardless of whether her married life was a mess, she would definitely not have spent the rest of her life in such a humiliating way.
Besides the Luo family, the people who ruined the original owner's life included Zhao Desheng and his mother.
So after Zhao Desheng was incarcerated, she wrote to Mrs. Zhao, telling her that as long as she handed over the stolen money, she could get a reduced sentence or even be acquitted. Mrs. Zhao, like Li Cuifeng, was a "son-first" person, so she would probably borrow money from everywhere even if she had no money.
The Zhao family is in debt, and their son is still not rescued. This is a loss of everything... This is what life is worth!

With an idea in mind, Weisheng rented a house in the county according to the original owner's memory.
The house only had a usable area of a dozen square meters and was located in a small building. Apart from being cheap, there was nothing else to recommend it.
However, Weisheng will only live here for two months, and most of the time she will stay in the space, so for her, it’s fine as long as the rent is cheap enough.
By the way, Weisheng rented the house under the pretext of retaking the college entrance exam and focusing on tutoring. At the time, she said it was just a temporary stay and she would move out when school started. The landlord heard what Weisheng said and, seeing no one else renting the house, decided to rent it to a single girl like her.
There was only a tattered wooden bed in the rental house. Weisheng tidied it up simply and put on the bed the original owner used when he was in school. Then he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a thermos, a washbasin and other items.
Anyway, I will have to buy these things when I go to college, so it’s the same if I buy them in the county now.
After settling down, Weisheng went to find a high school classmate who lived in the county. Her mother worked in the neighborhood office, so if she wanted to find a short-term job in this time and space, she had to seek external help.
After hearing Weisheng's "truth", his classmates and their mothers felt pity for him and actually introduced him to a part-time job pasting matchboxes.
After having dinner at a classmate's house that night, Weisheng returned to Nanshan Town at night.
The grain station was in the center of Nanshan Town. Going from the county to the grain station would pass by Luo's house. Weisheng was not Dayu, so when passing by Luo's house, Weisheng used the collecting function of space to take away the gate of Luo's house.
Whether the Luo family, without a gate, would attract villains is not something Weisheng would worry about.

People went to bed early, so he didn't meet anyone along the way. Arriving at the grain station, Weisheng struggled to get into the compound. But just as he jumped in, he encountered the wolfhounds roaming the backyard.
In the starry night, Weisheng and the wolfhound looked at each other, and finally the wolfhound suddenly pounced towards Weisheng, and Weisheng subconsciously hid in the space.
Sitting on the floor of the living room, staring straight at the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the wolfhound outside wandering where she disappeared, Weisheng was still somewhat frightened.
I don’t know if the town hospital has rabies vaccine?
The wolfhound couldn't find anyone, so it just sat there where Weisheng disappeared. Weisheng looked at the time, then at the wolfhound outside, but he wasn't in a hurry to go out.
He got up and went to the kitchen to cook himself a bowl of midnight snack, then moved a small round table to the floor-to-ceiling window. Through the window (space), he ate the midnight snack while staring at the wolfhound.
Weisheng was ready for a long battle with the wolfdog, but it was obvious that the wolfdog was not.
I don't know what it heard, but its ears stood up suddenly, and then it turned its head quickly and ran out of the observation range of the floor-to-ceiling window without hesitation.
Seeing this, Weisheng quickly moved out of the space and ran towards the office building at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
The grain station's office building was a small two-story building. The doors to the building were locked, but the windows on both sides of the corridor were open.
Before the wolfhound caught up, Weisheng jumped into the office building through the first-floor window. He then locked the window from the inside and proudly stuck out his tongue at the wolfhound through the window.
Hehe, I can’t catch it!
The wolfhound was so angry that it kept barking and even attracted the night watchman, but Weisheng had already run to the second floor by then.
There is a door number outside the office, and you can find Zhao Desheng's office by following the door number.
The office door lock was an old-fashioned spring-loaded one that could be opened with just a card. The office wasn't large, but it wasn't small either. Finding the money and notes Zhao Desheng had hidden wouldn't be easy, and many of the cabinets were locked.
But it doesn’t matter, Weisheng has plenty of time.
He tried to learn how to open locks with hairpins and wire like people in movies and TV shows, but found that it was just a fantasy for an outsider, so Weisheng decided to use the dumbest method - dismantling the furniture.
He took out an electric screwdriver and started removing the back panels of the desk and filing cabinet. Although it took some effort, at around 1:00 AM, Weisheng finally found where Zhao Desheng had hidden his money.
The total was 4,865 Chinese yuan, 300 kilograms of national food coupons, a bicycle ticket, a sewing plane ticket, and some miscellaneous industrial coupons, supply coupons, and cloth coupons.
After putting all these things into the space without any hesitation, Weisheng restored the desk and other furniture that she had disassembled.
Before leaving, he stole a Hero pen that Zhao Desheng had left in his office...
After leaving the office, Weisheng took some time to leave the grain station, surrounded by wolfhounds. After that, he did not return to the county town immediately, but went to Luo's house again.
The Luo family's courtyard no longer had a gate, and it was still very quiet. Weisheng poked his head inside, threw Zhao Desheng's pen outside the dry toilet built by the Luo family, and left Nanshan Town before dawn.
…
On the surface, Zhao Desheng only lost a pen, but the question is who would go to his office and steal a pen in such a brazen manner?
The most interesting thing is that when Zhao Desheng went to work the next day, he did not find that his family property had been confiscated. He did not find the pen and just thought that he had dropped it somewhere.
However, the fact that the Luo family lost their gate overnight became a hot topic in Nanshan Town.
Many people went to ask the Luo family, what is different about the gate of your house?
Really not, just the most ordinary pine door.
Although they didn't know what happened, the Luo family still reported the case with the Hero pen they found outside their dry toilet.
Just as the Luo family was guessing who the owner of the pen was, the sarcastic Mrs. Zhao found another beautiful girl for her son.
I don’t know what the Zhao family was thinking. The person they chose this time was still a high school student, and a girl who had just taken the college entrance examination this year and felt that she did not perform well.
Unlike Weisheng, the girl did not object to this marriage, but when the gifts came to be exchanged, the Zhao family failed to produce the agreed betrothal gifts, so the marriage was temporarily shelved.
It was not until this time that Zhao Desheng discovered that his family property had been confiscated.
But just as Weisheng expected, Zhao Desheng did not dare to report the case.
Zhao Desheng thought that since he had taken so much money and tickets, he would definitely not keep them forever, so he tried to find someone in this area. But he was disappointed. Weisheng really didn't think of using the windfall right now.
After returning from Nanshan Town, Weisheng first went to the street office to get the materials for making matchboxes, and then took all the materials to the space and made them as handicrafts while watching TV series.
During this period, Weisheng also wrote nearly thirty anonymous letters of denunciation in her own handwriting, which was different from the original owner's. She put them in envelopes, affixed stamps on them, and waited to send them out in early September.
In addition, she also reported Luo Xianyang's bad friends on his behalf under their real names.
However, just as the matter began to ferment, Luo Xianyang and Li Cuifeng found the tube-shaped building.
