Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

As soon as Ma Xiaojun returned to the educated youth center, he saw Ren Jie hurried out carrying a canvas bag. He asked in surprise: "Ren Jie! Where are you going? Is there any news about Lin Yan?"

When Ren Jie saw Ma Xiaojun, his heart moved and he shouted loudly: "Quick! Take the car keys and follow me!"

Ren Jie took the car keys and jumped into the cab to start the car. Ma Xiaojun jumped into the passenger seat and asked loudly: "Is there any news?"

Ren Jie kept a tight face and said nothing. He put the gear into gear and slammed the accelerator. The truck sped away with black smoke. When passing by the bayonet sentry set up by the police station, Ren Jie stuck his head out of the car window and said: "Public Security Bureau Comrade, we are educated youths from the Xiaping brigade, but no trace of Lin Yan has been found in the nearby search and rescue. We are worried about her safety and want to drive to the surrounding area and search again to see if there are any clues?"

The nearby commune members who set up the roadblock knew the two trucks carrying vegetables from the Xiaping Brigade, so the public security officers did not hesitate and moved the roadblock to let them pass.

Ren Jie drove the truck along National Highway 323. Ma Xiaojun asked in confusion: "Ren Jie, where are you going? Are you sure Lin Yan's kidnapper ran in this direction?"

Ren Jie said in a solemn tone: "Ma Xiaojun, brother, I have a favor to ask of you. From now on, when I'm not around, protect Lin Yan and the others for me. Don't let them be bullied again!"

Ma Xiaojun said with a worried look: "Ren Jie, Lin Yan is missing, and everyone is in a bad mood. Don't think too much, we will definitely find her!"

Ren Jie continued: "Ma Xiaojun, don't interrupt. Remember every word I said. Lin Yan has been rescued. I accidentally stabbed that bastard Xu Xiaohu to death. Send me out of here now. Let's go along 323 After driving forward on the national highway for three hours, you left me behind and drove back for another two and a half hours. After getting off the car, you parked the car on the side of the road. You walked to the right along the path and pretended to look for Lin Yan. Ask everyone you meet if they have seen Lin Yan, and get a few more witnesses to prove that you have been looking for Lin Yan in this area. Remember that we separated at the parking place. You turn to the right and I turn to the left. You must be clear. Suspected of covering up crimes!”

Ma Xiaojun was shocked and said: "Are you going to flee to the end of the world?"

Ren Jie nodded and said in a deep voice: "I have also told Lin Yan that from now on, you can all prepare for the college entrance examination with peace of mind, and you should all be able to get into college. Zhong Haitao's family conditions and academic foundation are not very good. From now on, he will be the one to sell vegetables." Come on, I took all the money stored at Lin Yan’s place, and the dividends from the Sequoia Hotel should be enough for the living expenses of the few of you!"

Ma Xiaojun took out all the money and a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed them into Ren Jie. He said in a choked voice: "Ren Jie, you have to be careful. When the arrangements are settled, write me a letter and I will remit the money to you!"

Ren Jie laughed loudly and said: "Don't worry, brother, I will not starve to death anywhere, and I can live well and write you a letter? Do you think the police are vegetarians, they will follow the clues and catch me, you can't do anything No need to think about it, just stay at the parking place for half a day and buy me some time."

After driving along National Highway 323 for nearly three hours, Ren Jie pulled over and was about to get off the car and leave. Ma Xiaojun insisted on driving forward for more than ten minutes. Ren Jie insisted and refused to let him go any further. Ma Xiaojun choked with tears and was in the car with Ren Jie. He said goodbye, gritted his teeth, turned around and drove back...

After getting off the bus, Ren Jie did not leave immediately. Instead, he climbed down the roadbed and disposed of the shoes and pants that he had no time to throw away. Then he carried a canvas bag and continued walking alone. There was no map, no compass, and not even water. , there are only a few pancakes in the bag...

He actually didn't know if he could escape this time, but he didn't regret killing that bastard Xu Xiaohu with his own hands at all. He deserved it!

He didn't know how long he had been walking, but Ren Jie felt that the sun on his head was getting more and more poisonous, and his throat felt like fire. He had to stop under the shade of a tree on the side of the road, and his legs felt like they were filled with lead...

After a short rest, Ren Jie faced a choice. In this era full of car thieves and road bullies, he needed to get to a town as soon as possible. He walked alone on the national highway. When night fell, he had a huge amount of money in his canvas bag. Cash may be his talisman!

Maybe it was a good time, but at this moment, a truck with a Cantonese license plate drove up from behind. Ren Jie rushed to the roadside and waved his hands vigorously. Fortunately, the truck finally stopped slowly.

Ren Jie walked up to him and said in a nondescript Cantonese: "Thunder Monkey, boss!"

The truck driver looked at Ren Jie with suspicious eyes. Ren Jie switched to Mandarin and continued: "Brother, I am from Yangjialing, Sanlipu. I am serving as a soldier in Zhuhai. I am coming back to visit relatives this time. Can you give me a ride?"

The truck driver hesitated for a while, nodded and said, "Get in the truck!"

Ren Jie happily got into the passenger seat and threw the canvas bag at his feet. The truck driver may have been too bored driving long distances alone, so the two started chatting.

The truck driver looked to be in his early thirties, his name was Huang Hai, and he was from the southern suburbs of Yangcheng. Ren Jie also made up a random name and said obediently: "Brother Huang, my name is Yang Mo, you can call me Xiao Yang."

The two chatted for a while, and after getting familiar with each other, Huang Hai suddenly said mysteriously: "Brother Yang, have your troops ever gone to the border to catch stowaways?"

Ren Jie shook his head and said: "That is a matter for the border defense force and the armed police force. I am a farm soldier. I rarely go out on missions. I just train and work every day!"

Huang Hai then smiled mysteriously: "Have you ever heard of Wanqingsha? I am from there!"

Ren Jie looked puzzled and asked: "Wanqingsha? I've never heard of it. Is there anything special about your place?"

Huang Hai said with some pride: "Wanqingsha is a gathering place for mainlanders, smugglers, and tourists. From our side, it is only about 20 nautical miles from the waterway to the Xiangjiang River."

Ren Jie said in surprise: "So close? I remembered that a few educated youths from our farm escaped from there, but most of them were arrested!"

Huang Hai said disdainfully: "Those educated youths just want to get out with a raft and a lifebuoy. If only one out of 10 can escape, they are destined to die!"

Ren Jie timely praised: "Brother Huang is indeed well-informed when traveling all over the country. There are so many patrolling border guards and fixed checkpoints on the road. If they want to go out with rafts and lifebuoys, they are not looking for death! Why don't they find those with magical powers if they want to go out? Where is the snakehead?"

Huang Hai said disdainfully: "It costs at least 600-800 yuan to lead a smuggler. How can an educated youth have so much money?"

Ren Jie exclaimed: "Ah! It costs so much money! Can you guarantee that nothing will happen if you charge so much money?"
