Rebirth: 1977

After hanging up the phone, Ye Tianshui quickly walked out of the study and shouted:

"Chen Jun, gather all of us immediately, drive the cars with the two license plates, put on uniforms if you have them, and put on our work uniforms if you don't have them, bring your weapons... and work IDs, and get ready to go!"

Notify Lin Hao to come back... Forget it, I'll talk to Director Su about this in person.

You call Platoon Leader Chen and ask him to come back fully armed with everyone and meet us near the small town of Meihua County in SX Province."

Chen Jun was stunned. What was going on? He was fine just now, why did he suddenly have to "set off" fully armed?

"Director, what happened? Is it serious?"

Ye Tianshui slapped his forehead hard and analyzed the content of Sang Nianzhong's phone call to him in a few words.

"Chen Jun, the possibility that they are coming for me is extremely small, but we cannot completely rule out this possibility.

You and I are both familiar with that place. It's the mountainous area where Wu Pingtao went to work as a sent-down youth. His brother Wu Pingyan is the deputy county chief there. Ha, I hope they're not coming for me!"

A layer of ice formed on Ye Tianshui's face.

Chen Jun suddenly realized that something serious had happened. He certainly understood the meaning of the words "crackdown".

If the other party was only targeting Sang Nianzhong, then their plan was indeed to cut off his people and transportation routes first.

Next, I'm afraid he will have to play both sides. On the one hand, he will take over the mine, and on the other hand, he will find something against Sang Nianzhong. Even if he doesn't take the opportunity to kill him, he will probably lose some skin in the water.

"Director, what about the box in the car?"

Chen Jun reminded.

Ye Tianshui was stunned for a moment. He forgot:

"Take it out and put it in our room."

He returned to his study and called Su Jianxin first. Fortunately, he was in the office.

"Uncle Su, something happened here. The truck transporting jade was intercepted in Meihua County, SX.

A total of 25 people, including the escort and the driver, were arrested.

The other party was deliberately provoking trouble and dispatched the public security and armed forces militia. I had to rush over to save them.

If it was a step later, I'm afraid the person would be gone."

If the person is really gone, there is no place to reason under the current special circumstances.

Even if we find the mastermind behind this and take revenge, what does it matter? The people who are gone can never come back.

That involves twenty-five families!

Su Jianxin was surprised: "Xiaoshui, does the other party know that it is your business? Isn't this like plucking hair from a tiger's head?

Who has had enough of life and wants to die?"

"Now is not the time for speculation and reasoning. Please lend me Lin Hao and the others, and also lend me a police truck. I need them to be fully armed.

Uncle Su, this is a matter of life and death, have them gather at Lanyuan in half an hour."

Su Jianxin certainly understood the situation. Many people below him took chicken feathers as a token of authority. If they caught someone today, they would be eager to kill him with a "bang" tomorrow.

What is scary now is that as long as someone reports you, you will be arrested without any investigation, and you can be convicted without even interrogating or getting evidence.

It seems that the more people you catch, the greater the credit you get.

"Xiao Shui, I'll notify them right away. You have to be careful and don't fall into other people's traps."

Ye Tianshui thanked him, hung up the phone, and called Ye Jianfeng, simply repeating what Sang Nianzhong said:

"Dad, I'm not sure who they're coming for. At least they're not coming for Wucheposhitou.

I am worried about those people. They must not get into trouble because of working for me."

"Humph, as long as there is a chance, there will always be some bastards who want to take advantage of it and stir up trouble!

Xiaoshui, since you are going, you must not bring shame to my name, Ye Jianfeng!

Do you have enough people? I'll assign a few more experts to you."

Ye Jianfeng's tone was cold and he must be angry.

“That’s enough. I’ve called back Platoon Leader Chen and his men, and we’ll meet up in Meihua County.

I also asked Lin Hao and the others to come back to help me.

Dad, I'm sorry, I can't have dinner with you. Please tell Zilan and my parents-in-law that I have urgent matters to make some arrangements.

Also, please ask for leave from my company the day after tomorrow. You can make up any reason you want.

I'm not sure about the time, but I'll call you to report once things are clear.

By the way, Dad, there is a box in Zi Lan's and my room. It contains the things you want. If you need them urgently, send someone to get them."

Ye Tianshui declined Ye Jianfeng's help and called him to let him know what he was going to do.

Ye Jianfeng: "Don't worry, just send it to me when you come back."

Half an hour later, a large green truck and two jeeps with cool license plates drove at high speed out of the capital.

Dusk gradually enveloped the earth.

Chen Jun prepared dry food and water in a short time and had a makeshift dinner.

In the car, Lin Hao understood the cause and effect of the incident and asked doubtfully:

"Director, could it be the Wu family's doing? Maybe they're targeting you?!"

Ye Tianshui had also had such doubts the moment he knew about this, but he has always been very lazy in business and did not contact or meet with Sang Nianzhong frequently.

On the surface, the business belonged to Sang Nianzhong, and the few people who knew the inside story would never leak it.

If Wu Pingyan intervened in this matter and knew that this business was his, when he wanted to do it, he should have considered whether he could bear the consequences?

Others may not understand Ye Tianshui, but the Wu family and Wu Pingyan should know that Ye Tianshui is not someone who can be easily provoked?

When he did not have such a powerful background, the young college student named 'Yin Tianshui' was able to help Wu Pingtao solve such a difficult problem.

At this moment, how many people dare to mess with Ye Tianshui?

However, Ye Tianshui, who has lived a new life, never puts himself in danger.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have made such a fuss about this trip.

"Guessing won't solve the problem now. Let's see how they deal with it when we get there."

He has dispatched the military and police, and they are armed with real guns and ammunition. Doesn't he believe that the local police and militia dare to confront him?

Those who were driving on the road took turns, those who were riding in the car closed their eyes to rest, and those who could sleep were still snoring.

The road this time is much better than the last time. Some sections are much better, there are not so many potholes, and the bumps are not so severe.

After a journey of nearly 1,200 kilometers, Ye Tianshui arrived at the county seat of Meihua County at nine o'clock the next day.

Ye Tianshui can get used to everything in this era, but he misses mobile phones the most.

Just like now, he has no way of knowing where Platoon Leader Chen and the others are?

The distance from the border to here is about 1,800 kilometers. They set out at almost the same time, and the distance between the two sides is nearly 600 kilometers.

It may take another two hours to arrive.

He silently calculated in his mind. Ye Tianshui had never been on that road, so he didn't know what the road conditions were like. It was possible that he would have to wait for another four hours.

"Let's find a place to eat first. Then, Chen Jun, you take people to the county town to inquire about the current situation of those people.

Lin Hao, you take your men to guard the intersection and wait for Platoon Leader Chen and the others."

There were twenty-two of them in total, and they could not fit into one snack bar, so they simply solved their own food and clothing problems separately, and then left one by one as ordered.

So many young people in different uniforms suddenly came to a small county town, some holding guns and some holding batons, with serious faces. I thought some big case had happened.

Even if all the police forces in this county were concentrated together, they might not be able to gather this number.

The leaders in the Meihua County Party Committee and County Government compound received calls from various parties one after another.

Some ask questions, and some report.

Bian Kang, who had just been nominated by the county party secretary and was now the county magistrate, was a local cadre here and had heard reports from people everywhere.

"Please be clear, are they soldiers or police officers?"

He asked the person who called him in a calm tone.

"County Magistrate Bian, there are people wearing police uniforms, and there are ten people whose uniforms we can't tell.

However, the guns they hold are real, and besides..."

The caller deliberately lowered his voice:

"County magistrate, it doesn't seem to matter what you wear. The key is that the license plates on the two jeeps are from Beijing, and they are not something that ordinary Beijing officials are qualified to have.

If my guess is correct, the person who came must be someone important!"
