A professor's rebirth: I entered Tsinghua University in 1977.

After much effort, they finally found Director Baiyun, the head of the commune.

He is a relatively young cadre, probably in his thirties.

Director Bai was called over from the poker table. He was unhappy and had a dark face. "Which unit are you from? What's the matter?"

Yuan Gang immediately showed his work ID: "We are from a research institute of the People's Liberation Army."

After seeing Yuan Gang's brand new military uniform and then the work ID, Director Bai's expression finally changed, but he also became more confused.

"Oh, Director Yuan...Excuse me, comrades from the army, what mission has brought you to Huangcun in the dead of night?"

It was a little after nine o'clock, but it wasn't quite the middle of the night.

But since Director Bai said this, naturally no one would correct him.

"Director Bai, the truth is, we're here for Huang Yonghui, an educated youth from the Qiwan Brigade of your Huangcun Commune. We heard he was detained and severely beaten by the people from the Qiwan Brigade. We want to know more about the situation!"

Bai Yun was surprised and asked in confusion, "Director Yuan, what is the relationship between Huang Yonghui and your military research institute?"

Yuan Gang's face was stern, and he said coldly, "Director Bai, you don't need to ask this. We are just following orders. Please cooperate. Bring Huang Yonghui to the commune immediately. We need to understand the specific situation."

Bai Yun's face darkened again, and he looked quite unhappy.

The military's status these days was indeed rather special, but generally speaking, they didn't interfere in local politics. Furthermore, the other party was only from a research institute, not a full-fledged field garrison, so Bai Yun wasn't particularly intimidated.

Jin Yunfeng obviously knew what he was thinking. He chuckled and interrupted, "Director Bai, let me remind you that this is an instruction personally issued by our Director Duan. Our research institute is a deputy army-level unit. Director Duan is at the rank of general!"

You're just a commune director; in the army, you wouldn't even be considered a battalion-level officer.

Think about it yourself, how big the gap is!

"Besides, Director Bai, you're the director of Huangcun Commune, not the Party Secretary of Qiwan Brigade, right?"

Liu Hongyi secretly gave Jin Yunfeng a thumbs up.

If you want to study these tricks thoroughly, you have to be a cadre in the local system.

What this means is: If it’s not your own business, Baiyun, you don’t need to take the blame for others.

Just ask the Qiwan Brigade to bring the people over and that's it.

If the people from the Qiwan Brigade have any objections, let them confront us themselves. Why are you trying to get involved?

Although Jin Yunfeng is a soldier, you can't deny that he grew up in a family of officials.

I learned these things through daily exposure.

Bai Yun paused again and asked doubtfully, "Are you really from the army?"

Yuan Gang looks similar, but Jin Yunfeng doesn't look quite like him.

Tan Dexi and Liu Hongyi are undoubtedly "ordinary people".

"nonsense!"

Jin Yunfeng scolded impatiently.

"Who dares to pretend to be this?"

"Look carefully. This collar patch, this cap badge, this car, how could it be fake? The five stars and eight signs are clearly printed on them."

"Director Bai, let me tell you, Director Duan has issued a death order regarding this matter. We must get to the bottom of this tonight. If Huang Yonghui is truly a rapist, then there's no question about it. We will deal with him as he should. If he deserves a prison sentence, he should be sentenced. If he deserves execution, he should be executed."

"But even so, what right does the Qiwan Brigade have to keep detaining people?"

"Are they from the Public Security Bureau or the police station?"

"Your Huangcun Commune doesn't care about this?"

"If all else fails, we'll go to Shahe and ask your county leaders what's going on."

"Director Bai, the Xu family from Qiwan Brigade are not relatives of yours, Director Bai?"

You are so towards them!

A smile appeared on Liu Hongyi's lips.

This "chance encounter" today was so damn right!

Only someone like Jin Yunfeng can control Bai Yun.

He never forgets to play the big game, the key is what is true and what is false, real and fake. If Bai Yun was not the brother-in-law of Lao Xu's family in Qiwan Brigade, he would not help others to take such a big blame for no reason.

"Haha, comrade, please don't get angry. It's the middle of the night. Haha, I just want to get to the bottom of the situation... Well, everyone, please go to the conference room and have a seat and some tea. I'll arrange for someone to go to Qiwan and have Xu Wenzhe bring the person over."

Bai Yun's expression changed several times, and finally he was smiling, his attitude changed completely.

"That's right..."

Jin Yunfeng took out a cigarette and offered it to Bai Yun with a smile.

It turned out to be Greater China.

This kind of cigarette is expensive, costing 74 cents a box.

I can almost finish one pack of "economic cigarettes".

Even county leaders cannot afford such expensive cigarettes.

In fact, in the entire research institute, only Jin Yunfeng smokes such expensive cigarettes, and he doesn't smoke them often. He just carries a box in his pocket and only offers a cigarette to "distinguished guests" when he meets them.

Under normal circumstances, Jin Yunfeng also smoked Daqianmen, which cost 32 cents a box.

Finally, Bai Yun was severely suppressed.

In Greater China, that would be the level of provincial-level officials.

Even the leaders in their county, at most, smoke Daqianmen cigarettes; some of the more frugal ones smoke even cheaper ones.

It seems that even if these people are in the army, they are not ordinary people.

Yuan Gang and others were immediately arranged to sit in the small meeting room of the commune, and then someone was sent on bicycles to the Qiwan Brigade to ask the branch secretary Xu Wenzhe to bring Huang Yonghui over and say that someone from the county had come to interrogate Huang Yonghui.

If they said that someone from the army was coming, that old fox Xu Wen Ze would probably become suspicious, and it was hard to say whether he would still cooperate.

Facts have proved that Bai Yun still underestimated Xu Wen Ze.

Without saying that they were from the army, Xu Wenzhe did not obediently bring Huang Yonghui to the commune. Instead, he brought his son Xu Cheng, the brigade's deputy branch secretary, and two strong members to the commune.

The fact that someone from the county came to the commune in the middle of the night and said they wanted to interrogate Huang Yonghui was itself suspicious.

Xu Wenzhe felt uneasy and decided to come over and take a look at the situation first.

I didn't originally plan to bring Xu Cheng along, but Xu Cheng insisted on coming along.

He had a guilty conscience and was afraid that people in the county would do something bad to him. He would be worried if he didn't come and see it with his own eyes.

Anyway, Director Bai of the commune had always had a good relationship with his father, so Xu Wenze often visited Bai Yun during festivals. Whenever Bai Yun came to inspect the work of the Qiwan Brigade, Xu Wenze would treat him to good food and wine.

If the county really came directly to arrest someone, Xu Cheng believed that Bai Yun would definitely leak some information.

When the Qiwan Brigade members walked into the commune meeting room, they were stunned when they saw a group of military cadres in uniform.

How is this going?
