In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 577 Cherish the people in front of you at all times
After Qin Yourong was arrested, all related personnel were taken into custody. The next step was to try the cases, including the "Luhe Manufacturer Fraud Case," the "Hired Murder Case," the "Overseas Illegal Parts Smuggling Case," and the "Using Counterfeit Goods for Unfair Competition," etc.

When the officials discovered a warehouse full of illicit overseas parts, they knew they had caught a big fish. They were so excited that they didn't sleep and stayed up all night to bring the case to a successful conclusion.

Following Yu Dawei's instructions, Sun drove to the restaurant where he had previously bought food, woke them from their slumber, and had them prepare more than a hundred boxed meals.

This night is destined to be one that keeps many people awake.

Around 3 a.m., Yu Dawei and the other three finally finished giving their statements. Just as they were about to leave, Officer Hao stopped them at the door, with another man in uniform standing next to him.

"Dawei, you always manage to make such a fuss." Officer Hao lit a cigarette for himself. "But this time is different. You've done a great service. Officer Zhang from the oil city and I will recommend you for commendation."

The word "discretion" is used very well. After all, Yu Dawei did trespass on someone else's property, so his merits and demerits can only be offset. We'll see what the higher authorities say then.

However, this incident is a good thing for Officer Hao, the police station in Youcheng, and Officer Zhang who helped Officer Hao.

It can be considered a great achievement that fell from the sky out of nowhere.

Therefore, Officer Zhang treated Yu Dawei very well, partly because Yu Dawei got credit for nothing, partly because of Hou Wanqiang, and also because Yu Dawei himself was a good guy who knew to buy some food for his brothers.

This collaboration with Yu Dawei and the officials in Luhe went very smoothly.

According to Officer Zhang, Fang Jing will face at least 20 years in prison if he confesses now. Although Qin Yourong is not directly involved in the fire, she orchestrated a fraud case involving spare parts in the Luhe area and almost indirectly caused Liang Hongwei's death. In addition, her acts of counterfeiting and disrupting the market will likely result in her facing at least 10 years in prison.

By the time Yu Dawei led Sun Shunli, Boss Liang, Duan Dahai, Yao Jinfu, and others back to the warehouse living area along G301 National Highway to rest, it was already dawn.

However, Yu Dawei still called his wife first before he could finally go to sleep.

The matter seemed to have truly ended there. Yu Dawei had renovated the warehouse into a house for his living, and occasionally, thunderous snoring could be heard.

Yu Dawei's SUV was totaled in the crash. Fang Jing's case will be heard later, and only then will a fixed amount of compensation be awarded for his property loss and Liang Hongwei's property loss.

We may need to wait a while longer.

After waking up, Yu Dawei called his second uncle again, partly to let him know he was safe and partly to ask to borrow his SUV for a while.

This means that David will have time to choose a new car and then return the SUV.

The group slept until the afternoon. Yu Dawei was still quite energetic. He had two shallow cuts on his arm, but he didn't need to recover. He sat on a small stool by the door, watching Monkey and the young man who had only been there for a few days work.

A tea mug sat on the ground beside him, filled with brewed white tea. Yu Dawei leaned against the wall in the shadows by the door, enjoying the crisp autumn breeze, occasionally taking a sip of the white tea, looking very relaxed and content.

"Dawei? Are you all alright?"

Just then, Li Fubao's black sedan stopped at the right entrance of the repair shop next door. After getting out of the car, he immediately walked over to Yu Dawei, looking very worried.

"It's nothing, they all suffered some minor injuries, nothing serious. They're still sleeping." Yu Dawei grinned at Li Fubao. "I heard that the officials took you with them, but they released you after a short while."

“That’s right.” Li Fubao found a small stool at the entrance of the repair shop and placed it next to Yu Dawei. “At first I thought they were going to ask you about your trip to the warehouse, but I didn’t expect they would just ask about the time. They released you after just a couple of sentences.”

"Later, I went back to the venue, helped people clean it up, and then found a hotel nearby where I fell asleep. I just woke up." Li Fubao looked up at the clear blue sky. "I never thought I would experience something like this in my life."

“There are all kinds of people in society. You’re not the real successor of the group right now. If you were to become your father-in-law’s successor, and it were announced publicly…” Yu Dawei patted the other’s shoulder as he said this, “Believe me, what awaits you is not a happy inheritance of billions of assets, but a life of constant assassination attempts with poor sleep and eating habits.”

"Impossible! That's too unbelievable!" Li Fubao had been to such a high position before and had dined with some powerful figures. They were all relatively easy to talk to and not as serious as Yu Dawei described.

“If you really inherit your father-in-law’s property, you’ll know what a hot potato is.” Yu Dawei didn’t explain, and gently hugged his knees with both hands.

It seems that he was once invited by a big shot to fix a car. He was supposed to be there to fix the car, but when he arrived at the accident scene, it wasn't just about fixing the car. He also had to help check if the car had been tampered with.

It's possible that the wealthy man's family wasn't even as rich as Li Fubao's father-in-law's family. It just goes to show that everyone is different, but the obsession with wealth is the same.

"Let's have dinner together tonight. After dinner, I plan to drive back. I haven't been here for the past few days, so I don't know if things are chaotic at the company." Li Fubao sighed. If he could, he would still prefer this kind of life where he could wander around to different places whenever he wanted.

What kind of person deserves what kind of position? Li Fubao only likes to make some easy money. Groups and such are things that ambitious people like.

The group had a meal together around 4 p.m., and chatted for a while afterward before Li Fubao drove away.

With things settled here, Sun Shunli and Yao Jinfu continued to the construction site. Sun Shunli is now the deputy captain in the vehicle maintenance team. He occasionally helps others by filling in for shifts, and spends the rest of his time traveling between construction sites to supervise the work.

After Fu Zi left safely, Yu Dawei drove Lao Liang and Lao Duan back home.

The three remained silent the entire way, perhaps because they were too tired, or perhaps because the tumultuous journey had made them re-examine the world.

I wonder what Boss Liang and Duan Dahai were thinking last night when countless watermelon knives were coming at them.

These are things that only they themselves may know, but for David, at that time, all he was thinking about was his wife.

I don't care how I live my life, what I fear most is never seeing my wife again.

Yu Dawei first dropped the two off in town, then drove straight to Yujiatun. The first thing he did upon arriving home was to hug his wife tightly. An indescribable feeling of happiness resonated from his chest to his brain.

"What's wrong?" Han Jingfan was held tightly in Yu Dawei's arms. Sensing her husband's unusual mood, she reached out her slender hand and put her arms around his broad back.

"It's nothing, I just missed you after not seeing you for several days." Yu Dawei loosened his embrace and looked down at Han Jingfan's stunning face. She was almost thirty, but there wasn't a single wrinkle at the corner of her eyes.

Because the house has tiled floors and we change our shoes when we come in from outside, the house is very clean, and even my wife's face seems to be much fairer than before.

Farmers' homes are almost always in a state of working the land from dawn till dusk, especially in the slow-developing Northeast. Even after Yu Dawei turned fifty, the houses in the village were still made of adobe.

It's not that I don't want to be clean, but heating the kang (heated brick bed) and cooking make me dirty easily with just a little bit of ash.

"I came back as soon as I finished things in the oil city." Yu Dawei reached out and stroked Han Jingfan's black hair. "I have to go to the company tomorrow to finish things up, and then I'll go back to our mother's place with you."

The two had previously agreed to take some time to visit the mother-in-law and bring her some tonics, but because Boss Liang also had things to do at his factory, Yu Dawei hadn't been able to get away.

"Hmm, no rush." ​​Han Jingfan nodded. She looked at Yu Dawei with complicated and hesitant eyes. When she touched his back just now, she felt the gauze wrapping. She wanted to ask him what had happened these past few days, but she was afraid that he didn't want her to worry.

"I got these injuries from a fight. Could you help me change my dressing?" Yu Dawei saw Han Jingfan's conflicted expression and guessed what she wanted to ask.

The two of them had a great understanding and gave each other a lot of space throughout their lives. Han Jingfan, in particular, would not ask about things unless Yu Dawei brought them up himself.

Yu Dawei felt the same way, but he thought it would be better to tell Han Jingfan some things proactively. However, he slightly modified the more dangerous parts to avoid making her worry.

The two chatted as they prepared dinner, occasionally interspersed with other topics.

For example, a few days ago, Da Feng brought home a man who was quite handsome and spoke with a strong Beijing accent. After her mother asked him, Han Jingfan found out that he was actually from Beijing.

On their first meeting, she brought Han Jingfan a gift—a pink scarf, which would be perfect for winter now.

It seemed that her parents had known about Zhang Huaijin for a long time and were very satisfied with their future son-in-law.

Then there's her own child, who doesn't study much at school and always likes to read the books in Han Jingfan's book box during class. Even Han Jingfan herself doesn't know when this little guy secretly took the books from her book box to school.

“Speaking of books, I remember you told me before that there are a lot of your books in Mom’s storage room, right? Let’s bring those books back this time,” Yu Dawei suggested.

"Okay!" Han Jingfan hadn't looked at those books in the storeroom for many years. They seemed to seal away some indescribable horror. Whenever he opened them, Han Jingfan would feel uncomfortable all over and even have difficulty breathing.

When did it start?
It seems that from the moment she became the talk of the village women, she never again tried to buy or borrow books, nor did she ever read any books again, until more than a year after she married into the family, until Yu Dawei suddenly realized something and brought her a book one day.

She thought that she probably wouldn't be afraid of those books piled up in the sack anymore, and that she wouldn't feel nauseous and want to vomit just looking at that sack of books.

She's different now. She's no longer alone. She has a husband who loves her, a son she loves, and a family she loves very much.

As evening approached, the dog in the yard, Shengzi, started barking, followed by the sound of children running quickly to the door, and the joyful cry of seeing their father: "Dad? You're back!"

"Yeah! I came back as soon as I finished my work this afternoon. Come here, Dad bought you something nice." Yu Dawei took Yu Muyu's schoolbag off and put it on the kang (a heated brick bed). He then took out a plush toy from his suitcase—a little tiger.

Yu Muyu was overjoyed to see new toys and hugged them tightly, playing with them on the kang (heated brick bed).

Yu Muyu only had a little white rabbit doll during his childhood, which was given to him by someone else. He didn't have any toys during his childhood and could only look at other people's toys.

In this lifetime, Yu Dawei will never let the little guy be bored and only able to stay around the stove again. Every time he comes back, he will bring the child some small gifts.

That night, the couple spent some time together. The next day, Yu Dawei returned to town and told Dafeng about the parts.

Now that the source of the fake parts scandal has been found, the next step is for Da Feng to work with Boss Liang to bring together the indirect victims and clarify the situation.

And for those merchants who have already been blacklisted, it is absolutely impossible to cooperate with them again.

Zhang Huaijin has been spending the last few days with Dafeng. According to him, his wife is more important than his career. He's not in a hurry, and things will run smoothly with or without him.

Yu Dawei didn't say anything; it's the honeymoon phase, so it's understandable.

However, Yu Dawei still took advantage of some time in the morning to call Aunt Wu from his small brick house and tell her the good news that the two of them had gotten together.

When Aunt Wu heard that it was true, she couldn't wait to buy some firecrackers and set them off right then and there.

In the afternoon, Yu Dawei convened an emergency meeting of all employees at the factory, covering topics such as the recent car repair situation, the progress of the parts issue, and the subsequent handling plan for Yu Feng.

The reason for speaking out is to stabilize everyone's long-standing unstable emotions, since no one likes to be harassed by a group of people every now and then.

When the meeting ended and Yu Dawei felt there was nothing left to do and was about to leave, he saw Zhang Ergouzi from the convoy waving to him.

"Boss Yu, there's something I want to tell you." Zhang Ergouzi took out a box of Changbaishan cigarettes from his pocket, took out two sticks, and handed them over.
