Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Yan Wenlong pinched his thigh hard, and the sharp pain calmed him down. He forced a smile and said, "I've been sitting for a long time, and my legs are a little cramped."

Lu Jianbang said calmly: "Sit down first, we can talk after the meeting."

Yan Wenlong wiped the sweat from his face, clutched his briefcase tightly, and then slowly sat down.

Lu Jianbang opened the file bag in his hand, took out a stack of ink-printed materials, and threw them on the table: "Raven, please take the trouble to give everyone a copy.

Cao Ruiwen stood up and answered loudly, "Yes."

He took the printed materials, which had been stapled together, and distributed them to everyone. When he got to Zhou Hu, Cao Ruiwen turned around and asked, "Director, is this also for Deputy Director Zhou?"

Wang Guohua sneered: "Of course, if others don't send it, he has to send it too."

Cao Ruiwen placed a document in front of Zhou Hu. Zhou Hu forced a smile and said thank you, Director Cao, but this smile was uglier than crying.

Lu Jianbang glanced at Wang Guohua, who nodded, stood up and walked out of the meeting room. Lu Jianbang smoked a cigarette and looked at these branch leaders with interest.

Everyone was now concentrating their attention on the materials and didn't notice that Deputy Director Wang had gone out.

Zhou Hu looked at the materials in front of him and trembled more and more. Cheng Jianping's confession in it was like a sharp blade stabbing at him. In just a few minutes, it pierced his entire body.

…．I put two thousand yuan in a file bag and sent it to Zhou Hu's home. Zhou Hu opened it and looked at it. He said that my material was well written, but he still needed to prepare a copy for Yan Wenlong.

I took another 3,000 yuan from my eldest brother Cheng Jianmin and sent it to Zhou Hu's home in the same way, asking him to give it to Yan Wenlong.

Zhou Hu patted his chest and said that he would take care of it. Sure enough, Peng Songnian was convicted three days later. In order to prevent Peng Songnian from crying out for injustice during the execution, Zhou Hu personally fed Peng Songnian sleeping pills on the day of execution. Peng Songnian was executed in a daze.

Over the past three years, I have given Zhou Hu and Yan Wenlong cigarettes and alcohol during festivals. Basically, each of them would receive two boxes of Moutai liquor and five cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes. Sometimes, I would also give them money directly, ranging from five hundred to one thousand.

This time, I was transferred to the branch's legal affairs department as deputy section chief. It was me who gave Zhou Hu a thousand yuan...

Yan Wenlong turned around and cursed Zhou Hu viciously: "Fuck you! Three thousand, you only give me one thousand, one thousand, you only give me five hundred, there is only one box of wine, only two packs of cigarettes, you are really black!"

Li Zhenjiang and the other three looked at the two of them in amazement. Even at this point, this idiot Yan Wenlong was still fussing over the quantity of gifts. Was there something wrong with his head?

Lu Jianbang smiled faintly and said, "Now that you have finished reading the materials, do you have anything to say?"

Cao Ruiwen slammed the table in anger, and the cups on it jumped up. The sound was so loud that it scared everyone else.

"Director, this is a disregard for human life!"

Yu Yongqiang followed up: "This is an injustice that has never been heard of before."

Cao Wenhe clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Is there still law? Is there still law?"

Li Zhenjiang opened his mouth and tried very hard, but in the end, nothing came out.

Lu Jianbang glanced at him and understood why Xie Guohua had been the one who had the final say and acted dictatorially in the branch in recent years. It turned out that it was Li Zhenjiang's cowardly and incompetent character that condoned him.

Yan Wenlong rubbed his eyes, and his unfortunate right eyelid finally stopped twitching. He leaned back in his chair and glanced at Lu Jianbang: "Director Lu, so the real culprit in this case is Cheng Jianping's brother Cheng Jianming? Well, this bastard even faked the scene? He deserves death. It's also my fault. I still lack work experience. It seems I need to study harder in the future."

Lu Jianbang placed his hands on the table and supported his body with his arms. Cao Ruiwen, who was close to him, could clearly see that Director Lu's hands were shaking.

Lu Jianbang said calmly, "What about Peng Songnian who died in vain? What do you think we should do?"

Yan Wenlong's expression turned serious. He nodded and said, "Yes, it seems that Peng Songnian was wrongly accused. Unfortunately, the dead cannot be resurrected. Let's do this, Director Lu. Our branch office will compensate him with some money. Is that okay with you?"

Lu Jianbang's posture remained unchanged, and his tone remained calm: "How much compensation do you think is appropriate?"

Yan Wenlong touched his chin and said, "Oh, the branch's finances are pretty tight right now. I think eight hundred is the best. We won't be able to take out more than that."

"Comrade Yan Wenlong, do you think a life is only worth 800 yuan?"

"Director Lu, eight hundred is not a small amount. Think about it, when our comrades died, the government only gave the families of them two hundred kilograms of millet. This is more than enough."

"What if I say no?"

"Hey, Director Lu, just set a price. I won't turn it down. I'll let that bastard Zhou Hu pay for the difference."

Zhou Hu quickly said, "I'll go out, I'll go out."

Lu Jianbang chuckled and leaned back in his chair to look at them. Although there was a smile on his face, his eyes were extremely cold.

Cao Ruiwen slammed the table and shouted, "You abuse your power for personal gain and bend the law, taking human lives lightly. How can you just pay a little money and be done with it?"

Yan Wenlong sneered: "What else? Do Zhou Hu and I have to pay Peng Songnian's life?" Isn't it ridiculous? He had forgotten the name of the deceased and had to look up the materials to find out.

Li Zhenjiang was afraid they would start arguing, so he quickly tried to smooth things over: "That's not the case, that's not the case."

Yan Wenlong slammed the table and glared at Cao Ruiwen fiercely: "Mr. Cao, isn't it just a little mistake at work? You are exaggerating. Let me ask you, Mr. Cao, can you guarantee that there are no false charges or wrongful convictions in the cases you handle? Why are you playing such a jerk here?"

Cao Ruiwen stood up and said: "Of course not! I won't do such a conscienceless thing!"

Yan Wenlong sneered: "Don't be so noble. We are all from the battlefield. What's the big deal if a few people die? Anyway, let me tell you, it's just a little compensation. As for the real murderer, just execute him and that's it."

Cao Ruiwen was about to speak when Lu Jianbang stopped him. Cao Ruiwen sat down angrily, and the chair under his butt creaked. It was obvious how much effort he put in.

Lu Jianbang remained expressionless, and calmly said to Yan Wenlong: "I've heard you say so much, but why haven't you expressed any remorse for the innocent victims?

I don't understand, since when did a human life become so insignificant in your eyes?

I've read your file. You were promoted to director because you solved the Yu Qiuyun murder case and made great contributions. Have you ever thought that your red collar badge is stained with the blood of the innocent victim?

How can you be so complacent? How can you still have the courage to yell in front of me? "

Yan Wenlong was breathing heavily. He didn't dare to challenge Lu Jianbang. In terms of rank, Lu Jianbang was much better than him. In terms of seniority, when Lu Jianbang was a popular young man, he was still working as a farmhand for the landlord at home.

"Director Lu, what do you think we should do? Zhou Hu and I are the only ones here. You can't ask us to pay for Peng Songnian's life, right?"

Lu Jianbang sneered: "Why not?"

Yan Wenlong and Zhou Hu were startled. Yan Wenlong clutched his briefcase tightly, his lips trembling as he said, "Director Lu, it's not that serious, is it? It's just a disciplinary action."

"Yes, yes." Zhou Hu also nodded repeatedly.

Lu Jianbang looked at the two of them, the aura of a warrior surging from him: "You two have been corrupt and perverted the law, accepting bribes, and causing a false case. You must be severely punished by law."

As soon as the door of the conference room opened, Wang Guohua strode in and sat next to Lu Jianbang.

Four fully armed police officers came in from the door, staring at Yan Wenlong and Zhou Hu...
