Bloody Romance: I, the big troublemaker, Zhong Yuemin!

"These measures have already been implemented in the communes where the incident occurred. It's been very passive. We have to find a way to make Li Mugen reveal himself."

"If all else fails, we can lure this guy out. Let's have a few brave and attractive female members from each brigade pretend to be working in the fields, preferably alone, to lure him out."

"Luring the snake out of its hole? That's an interesting idea. I'll report it to my boss later."

"Brother Li, this is also risky. If things go wrong, the fake might become real. If something goes wrong again, your director might really have to be replaced."

"The key is that we can't wait. The military order has been issued. If it really doesn't work, we can transfer some female police officers from above, or even men disguised as women. I can do that too."

Zhong Yuemin looked at the man's physique.

"Brother Li, for a 'girl' like you, unless you're really desperate, no one would dare to do it. Who would rape whom? And who would suffer the consequences?"

"Go to hell, am I that ugly?"

"Hey, Brother Li, let me ask you this: you're a special commissioner from Hongqi Commune, and there haven't been any cases of women being assaulted in our commune. The criminal police are in charge, so aren't you being overly concerned? What's the logic behind this? Don't tell me you're selfless and don't pursue any personal gain."

"Don't push me around, kid. I was temporarily transferred to the criminal police team. However, if I perform well, I'll have the opportunity to stay in your team and no longer go to the countryside. As for promotions in the public security field, you can see that the current directors and deputy directors in the bureau are all former criminal police officers. I don't need to say more, right?"

Zhong Yuemin nodded, "Understood!"

The two drank half a bottle of Xifeng Liquor and said, "Alright, that's it for today!"

Li Dan pressed the bottle cap down and wrapped half a roast chicken.

"You keep the peanuts, I'll take the wine, and let my kid try the roast chicken. Now we're leaving!"

Without waiting for his reply, she ran out of the door, got on her bike and rode away. She was so fast.

After a long while, a word popped out from the cave: "Fuck!"

How can you ask someone for help like this? Damn, our relationship is only as close as half a roast chicken.

A week later, Wangjiagou Brigade held a meeting at the brigade headquarters. Wang Long, Wang Hu, Wang Bao, the captains of the third and fourth teams, Xu Hai and Yang Min, the brigade accountant, the women's director and others all came. The small cave was packed. Zhong Yuemin and Wang Long sat side by side on the kang. The "throne" that should have been his was now occupied by two people.

It must be crowded!

Zhong Yuemin saw this old man put on a bad face, are you unhappy? I am still not feeling well, Wang Long said,

"Everyone's here. Let me discuss a few things. One is the production issues within the team. Although it's not the busy farming season, this year is considered a good year. The wheat, sorghum, and corn in the fields are all growing well. However, we can't be careless. We need to water and weed without stopping. We need to carefully tend to them. Teams One and Two previously transferred 250 people to the Baiyashan Reservoir overhaul project, so they're a bit overwhelmed with farm work. Xu Hai, Lao Yang, you two should each transfer 15 people to help Teams One and Two."

Xu Hai was unhappy when he heard this.

"Secretary Wang, two groups of strong laborers from my third team have gone to the reservoir construction site. How can we have any extra manpower? I was thinking of asking Wang Hu and Wang Bao for some help, but why are they asking my own team members instead? Can I still work in the fields?"

"Don't yell at me," Wang Long snorted coldly. "I want these fifteen men for nothing. I'll give them ten work points for a day's work. If they're fully staffed, I think everyone will be vying for them. You won't have to worry about them."

"Secretary Wang!"

Zhong Yuemin, who was standing nearby, spoke up, "You're the Party Secretary of a team. You have to be fair and impartial. You can't be biased. The people have sharp eyes."

Wang Bao asked, "Zhong Yuemin, what do you mean? My father gave the members full work points. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Captain Xiao Wang, don't get excited!"

Zhong Yuemin said slowly:

"First of all, you have to understand the fact that Wangjiagou is only so big. It's like a cake. Secretary Wang gives others extra points for processing, which is equivalent to cutting more cake, and then the others will have less. You give these 30 people full work, but what about the others? Give them 5 or 6 points, and you do it yourself. Would you be happy? There will definitely be complaints. Secretary Wang, I'm doing this for your own good. If you lose the people's support, you will really have nothing."

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Oh, you still have the nerve to ask me, why didn't you send out these 250 people in the first place? Now you're complaining about having no one, what a joke.

"Please send back fifty strong laborers. Director Shen originally only asked us to send 200 people from Wangjiagou. It was you, Secretary Wang, who was so focused on helping the leadership and insisted on sending 250. I want to send back fifty, and Director Shen won't say anything."

Wang Long felt so pent up in anger, but he couldn't vent it.

Yang Min said at this time:

"Secretary Wang, please bring back the dozens of educated youth and commune members who left earlier to give them a break. They've all been working at the construction site for over a month."

Wang Long gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay, there's one more thing. We're running out of detonators for blasting rocks at the reservoir construction site. Captain Zhong, you're in charge of production, so you take care of this."

"Where can I find a detonator? I should go to the commune's armed forces department, that Minister Hong."

"Didn't I just tell you that the county and the commune are currently short on them? If they had them, why would I be bringing this up? This situation has happened before, and the brigade always solved it on their own. They'd buy them first and then get reimbursed by the commune. There's a factory in Yulin City that makes detonators, and we've always gotten them from them. Bring a letter of introduction from the brigade, saying you're from Wangjiagou, and give my name, and you can buy the detonators. These items are very valuable, and I don't trust anyone else, so I'll have to trouble you, Captain Zhong."

He suddenly became so polite. What was this old guy up to?

"Okay, I'll go then, but this thing can't be taken on a long-distance bus, right?"

"Of course I can't take that. I'll take the brigade's truck. It's only a little over a hundred kilometers to Yulin, not too far. Food, drink, and lodging along the way will be reimbursed."

He was so 'thoughtful' that he had no way to refute and nodded slightly.

After the meeting, Zhong Yuemin caught up with Yang Min who was walking in front of him, "Uncle Yang, come over!"

Yang Min took the cigarette, but didn't smoke it. He put it behind his ear.

"You give me this kind of good cigarettes every day. I'm almost tired of smoking dry tobacco. Are you going to ask Wang Long about buying the detonator for you?"

Zhong Yuemin nodded. "Why are you so polite all of a sudden? I feel a chill on my back."

"Don't overthink it. Wang Lang wouldn't dare to have any bad intentions on such a matter. The reservoir does need a large number of detonators. Deputy Director Zhang is in charge of this reservoir overhaul project. They are all in the same boat. How can Wang Long really expect anything to happen at the construction site? Just go and buy them. Of course, you have to be extra careful. You are so cunning, don't I need to tell you more?"
