Chapter 603: Inside and Outside the Mountains
Before the seven people came to Zhishan Town, they made an appointment with a guide. They found a local man who often went into the mountains to collect mountain products. He was a small old man. They made an appointment to take them into the mountains at this time. This noodle shop It was the meeting place, but no one showed up. ReadМ
Qu Shan had inquired about the location of the small village in the mountain before, so he knew some things. Since the guide didn't come, something must have happened. Either he took the money and ran away or there was an accident.
Suolongqi actually already knew what was going on. Everyone in this area knew the reputation of the guide. Once he inquired about it, he found out that the guide had lost a lot of money in his previous business. In the past few years, he had been going into the mountains every day to sell goods. Betrayed, now seeing the amount of five thousand yuan, he probably took the money and hid.
During this period of time, Suolongqi has been carefully searching for all relevant information. He knows what Li Yi means, which is to make a large investment in the impoverished mountainous areas of Sichuan Province to build schools and clinics. Although this plan is just in its infancy, Suo Longqi can see the opportunity in it!
This is an important measure that can make Sichuan Province's economy leap forward, and it is a matter of immeasurable merit!
Taking all the reasons together, there is no doubt that Li Yi did this with a good starting point.
Furthermore, it can be seen that Li Yi values himself by leaving this kind of thing that has hundreds of benefits and no harm to him.
So Suo Longqi is not allowed to make any mistakes in this matter, even the slightest mistake must be controlled!
The whereabouts of these five thousand dollars must be caught and investigated!
Suolongqi put down the chopsticks in his hand, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then said in a deep voice: "The guide we hired has been going into the mountains all year round to look for mountain goods. He knows the situation inside the mountains best! So without him we would definitely not be able to appoint It’s easy to get into the mountains!”
Turning around and looking at the sky outside, Suolongqi said again:
"Let's go and find the guide. The nearest town here is more than 300 kilometers away. There is no transportation in this town. There is only a shuttle bus that will arrive at 12 noon. This is the only way to leave! Let’s separate out a few people and go look at the stop sign!”
"The rest of you will follow me and go to the town to find out where this guide lives!"
Several people looked at each other, and then nodded. After all, Suolongqi is the one who pays, that is, the boss, and whatever he says is what he says.
Regarding this guide, these six people all had the same opinion. If such a person is found, he should be beaten first and then taken to the police station.
Soronqi has a different view.
After paying the bill and walking out of the noodle shop, Suolongqi came to an old man.
The uncle was sitting on a pony by the side of the road, closing his eyes and relaxing in the sun. Suolongqi squatted down with a smile and asked softly:
"Uncle, can I ask you something?"
The uncle opened his eyes and looked at Suolongqi, but had no intention of speaking and closed his eyes again.
Suolongqi was not angry either. He took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and waved it in front of the old man. The old man immediately opened his eyes and looked at the one hundred yuan.
The income of people in this small town is only fifty or sixty yuan a month. When they see one hundred yuan, few people can't help but be excited.
This is why the guide couldn't see anyone after taking 5,000 yuan.
The old man quickly took the hundred yuan into his hand and said with a smile:
"Ask, ask, young man, I'm not bragging to you, I know half of it in heaven and everything on earth!"
Qu Shan and Tang Lan stood beside Suo Longqi, twitching the corners of their mouths speechlessly. This old man was really arrogant.
Soronqi asked with a smile:
"Do you know Zhang Laoliu who often goes into the mountains to hunt for mountain goods?
We wanted to get some mountain goods from him, but we heard that yesterday a group of people who wanted to go into the mountains gave Zhang Laoliu five thousand yuan, and then Zhang Laoliu disappeared. I want to know if he has already Into the mountains? "
Hearing Suolongqi's words, the old man frowned. Originally, the old man thought that the group of people in front of him were the ones who were looking for Zhang Laoliu to enter the mountain. But after hearing what this young man said, it was obvious that something was wrong!
This is another group of people!
The old man said helplessly:
"Into the mountains?
Zhang Laoliu is ready to run away! You son of a bitch, after taking the money, you want to go to the city to find your mother-in-law! "
Suolongqi suddenly understood and said curiously:
"Then do you know where his home is?
Let’s go talk to him about mountain goods! "
When the old man heard that the young man in front of him also had a Sichuan accent, he immediately dispelled some of his doubts, pointed to the east and said:
"The house behind the supply and marketing cooperative on the east side is the one with only half of the couplets at the door!"
Suolongqi immediately smiled and thanked him, and then waved his hand to signal Qu Shan, Tang Lan and others to follow. The three young men behind him, a middle-aged man wearing glasses, also followed immediately.
The old man looked at the backs of this group of people and felt a little strange. Is this just buying a mountain product?
Why are you so aggressive?
But Zhang Laoliu is indeed a bit like a grandson in his work. You took other people's money and treated them as fools?
…
Suo Longqi has found the supply and marketing cooperative. It can be said that this supply and marketing cooperative is deserted and there are very few goods inside. It can be seen that the business is not very good. The clothes and bags inside are all ordinary goods, but the prices are not low, so it is normal that no one comes to buy.
Suo Longqi turned around and said:
"Qu Shan and Tang Lan, come with me, and the rest of you go to the bus stop to see what's going on!"
Qu Shan and Tang Lan followed Suo Longqi into the alley and saw the half-painted couplet fluttering in the wind, making a rustling sound.
The remaining three guys and the middle-aged man with glasses walked towards the bus stop while talking.
"Uncle Ye, why do you think Zhang Laoliu wanted to run away?
I've already paid him 5,000 yuan, how can you play like this?"
The Uncle Ye mentioned by the young man is Ye Dequan, a middle-aged man with glasses. He used to be a reporter for a newspaper. Later, for some reasons, he offended the boss of the newspaper. In fact, he was too straightforward and didn't give the local boss face. Then the boss of the private enterprise had a long talk with the boss of the newspaper. After returning, Ye Dequan was fired.
It is obvious that Ye Dequan's manuscript at that time brought negative effects to the boss's company, because the coal mines under the boss often had accidents because the strength of various facilities did not meet the standards.
Ye Dequan just told the truth.
