Jin Ce saw him and raised an eyebrow: "Director Zhou?"

Soon everyone realized that the two young men who had just arrived were not ordinary.

As the police chief of Zhenhai City, Zhou Pin treated the two of them with great respect.

Not to mention that the combined age of these two young men might not even be as old as Zhou Pin.

After a brief, polite chat, Jin Ce explained his purpose: "We were doing well in Maoli Town today when someone came to threaten us, saying that we are the superiors of Zhang Yang, the militia captain of Zhangjiatun in the Third Production Brigade, and that we are assisting Zhang Yang in speculative activities."

Xiao He immediately said, "That's utter nonsense! To be precise, Yangzi is our informant. He helped us bust two smuggling gangs, but now someone is investigating us all the way up to deal with him!"

Zhang Haiquan and his group exclaimed in surprise: "What?"

Even Lao Qin and Director Zhou found it hard to believe, never expecting that Zhang Yang had Jin Ce and his group behind him.

"How could this be..." Qian Weiguo took a step back, his face completely drained of color.

Although he didn't know the true origins of the two young men, it was clear enough that they wielded immense power.

Now that Hu Dalei is in jail, then what about him...?

Qian Weiguo suddenly disregarded everything and turned to run away.

"Grab him!" several people shouted at the same time.

Qian Weiguo quickly pulled out a Type 54 pistol from his waist, turned around, and was about to shoot at Jin Ce and Xiao He.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Pin's side acted even faster.

Before Qian Weiguo could even aim, Zhou Pin's gun had already struck Qian Weiguo's arm.

Qian Weiguo shouted, and then was rushed up and taken away by the soldiers next to Jin Ce and Xiao He.

With Qian Weiguo's downfall, the "old school" of Wulipu completely collapsed.

The fence-sitters immediately started reporting, and reported the man with the mole and others.

Meanwhile, in prison, the siblings Li Maniu and Li Xuehua learned that Qian Weiguo's power was gone and that Hu Dalei had protected them and hadn't used the Great Memory Restoration Technique. Now, they had no hope left and confessed everything.

Aside from kidnapping Huang Wan'er from the clinic, the death of Yan Erjie from Zhangjiatun was also related to them.

It was Zhou Xiongmao, Li Ma Niu's childhood friend and an old-fashioned man, who strangled Yan Erjie.

The people who sent Zhou Xiongmao were Qian Weiguo and the man with the mole.

In just two days, a large number of people were taken away from Wulipu for investigation.

The world has completely collapsed for Qian Chunfen's family.

Li Yunxiang's belly grew bigger and bigger, and her temper became more and more irritable. She was constantly tearing at Wang Jie, and Wang Jie's face was so slapped that he couldn't bear to look at it. He frequently asked for leave, and the mine simply told him to get lost and fired him.

Qian Chunfen disliked Li Yunxiang to the extreme because of this. As the violence escalated, when Li Yunxiang was about to give birth, Qian Chunfen dragged her off the kang (a heated brick bed) and beat her on the ground because of a small conflict. Li Yunxiang eventually miscarried.

It was too late to get him to the clinic.

Li Yunxiang suffered placental abruption and severe bleeding, resulting in the deaths of both herself and her unborn child.

Qian Chunfen didn't want to go to jail or pay with his life, so he insisted that his daughter, Wang Zhaodi, take the blame. Wang Zhaodi refused, so Qian Chunfen packed his things and fled that very night.

As a result, she encountered the exact same fate as Jiang Mengjia.

At the same location, in the same ravine, Qian Chunfen fell into the same ravine that Jiang Mengjia had fallen into earlier that night.

But she was in a worse situation than Jiang Mengjia.

As winter receded and spring flourished, the thick branches not only pierced Qian Chunfen's throat, but also her shoulders, lower abdomen, thighs... all of them were pierced by the branches.

Hot blood was flowing out of her body at a frantic rate, and soon Qian Chunfen lost consciousness.

This time, her body wasn't discovered until ten days later. The intense stench and the gnawed bones made Wang Zhaodi and Wang Jie, who rushed over, afraid to take her body back. The two stood there for about ten minutes before turning around and running away, ignoring the shouts of others.

Finally, the commune intervened and went to Wulipu several times to look for them, but they refused to see anyone. With no other option, the commune had to give them money for a simple burial at the Spring Equinox.

After running out of money, Wang Zhaodi and Wang Jie quickly ran out of money and started trying to make ends meet by borrowing money here and there.

Wang Zhaodi wanted to find a man to marry as soon as possible, but because she was not pretty and was Qian Weiguo's niece, coupled with the fact that the tragic death of Qian Chunfen had spread throughout the whole village, or more precisely, the entire town of Zhenhai, she was in trouble.

At least in this area, no good family would be willing to marry her anymore; they all thought she was unlucky.

Quite a few widowed men in their forties or fifties, or so poor they couldn't even afford clothes, hired matchmakers to come to their door to propose marriage.

Wang Zhaodi had no interest in these men, but Wang Jie grew increasingly hungry. After several unsuccessful attempts to persuade her, Wang Jie began to take action against Wang Zhaodi, demanding that she find someone to marry within two days.

Wang Zhaodi was also Qian Chunfen's daughter, and her fiery temper was just as bad as Qian Chunfen's. If Wang Jie made a move, Wang Zhaodi wouldn't just obediently take the beating.

Although Wang Zhaodi was no match for Wang Jie, she still managed to leave him with a lifelong disability before he was kicked out of his home.

Finally, Wang Zhaodi had no choice but to marry a 50-year-old bachelor. As for Wang Jie, he never liked to work, and after becoming disabled, he had no way to make money.

After Qian Weiguo's downfall, the former "rebels" became the main force of the new militia in Wulipu. Liu Erzhuang became the new captain. The first thing he did after being elected as the new captain was to run to Zhangjiatun to ask Zhang Yang for advice on how to be a good captain.

Then, Zhang Yang dragged him to work on road repairs—

Back then, A-Ting was seriously injured by Lin Jia-Yao, and Zhang Yang took care of him in the hospital. Zhang Yang only learned about what happened in Zhangjiatun and Wulipu much later.

After taking Ating back to Zhangjiatun, the crops in the fields were thriving, and Zhang Yang's house was built very quickly after the foundation was laid, rising from the ground in an instant.

Two months later, the construction of the houses was completed, and Zhang Yang began to build roads.

While repairing the road, they also had to renovate the house. Every few days, Zhang Yang would bring a group of his brothers into the city and bring back several truckloads of furniture.

Zhao Dong was shameless and insisted on having a room all to himself.

The Gao brothers, Gao Wen and Gao Wu, requested double rooms, and three extra rooms were provided for the patrol team members to shower and sleep in after their night patrols.

As for the area behind the courtyard, it was all Zhang Yang's "wine factory".

Back when they were still taking care of Ating in the hospital, Jin Ce and Xiao He found out about them and went straight to the hospital to confront him.

There was only one thing I wanted: to get him to give me some wine.

Zhang Yang quoted a price of 15 yuan per bottle, and the two rich young men each bought ten jars.

After that, they wanted more and more.

Not only did they drink it themselves, but they also gave it away everywhere. Almost all the political figures and celebrities they knew had tried Zhang Yang's medicinal wine, and they became more and more addicted to it, consuming it very quickly.
