Chapter 152 Earning Money While Standing
"Did I act like a hooligan towards your wife?" Xie Hushan patted the man, who was grinning and had cigarette scars on his face from several cigarette butts, and asked.

Han Hongbing tied the man's neck with several bicycle chain locks connected together, just like tying a dog, and then tied the other end around the neck of the middle-aged man in uniform by passing it through the door frame.

The two people were like on a seesaw. If one of them didn't have the strength to stand on tiptoe and wanted to stand firmly on the ground with his feet, he would have to pull the chain to strangle the other's neck, making the other person breathless in exchange for his own breathing.

The two men's upper clothes were intact at this time, but their pants were all stripped off.

At this time, the man's face was blue, his eyes were bulging, and his hands were grabbing the chain around his neck:
"Big brother..."

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Xie Hushan reached out and pinched the other party's lips, and said with emotion:
"Don't say any more. I understand. You two have taken a liking to me. I can't be ungrateful. So, come back with me. I'll give you enough face. And since you're generous, I can't be ungrateful. I have a foreign dog, a female one. You should show your strength to it."

"As for your wife, I also have a local black dog, a male, who works better than you and will definitely work hard for your wife."

"Enjoy yourself. After you're done, the annealing furnace in my factory just needs someone to start the fire. Show your style. I won't let you two get in for nothing."

"Well, when the first batch of steel is made from your ashes, I will make a steel urinal and use it to pee in the middle of the night. You two will keep me company."

The other party tried to speak several times, but his mouth was pinched by Xie Hushan, so he could only whimper.

Xie Hushan finally let go of his hand. He wanted to speak and beg for mercy, but Song Tiesheng had already rushed out from the side, took the cigarette butt out of his mouth and pressed it on his face without saying a word, burning him so hard that he screamed in pain.

"Dah! Who told you to stop talking? Dah! Keep counting in your mouth!"

The man screamed in pain from the burns, not caring about talking to Xie Hushan. He plucked a few hairs from his lower body with his hands, counted them in front of his eyes, and counted loudly with sobs:
"Ninety-seven! Ninety-eight! Ninety-nine! One hundred! One hundred and one..."

"It has to be you. To be honest, it counts if you pull out his. If it doesn't work, try pulling out someone else's. It may not be as painful as pulling out your own." Xie Hushan said to the other party with a smile.

Then Xie Hushan turned to the security department leader who was standing back to back with the man, and waited for him to finish counting the hairs so as not to disrupt his counting, before he said:
"You've lived a long life, how can you not understand? State property can be thrown away at will? It's more important than a person's life. Tell me, how can you protect the factory with your mentality? Seven thousand yuan, and you just deduct it?"

"Do you still have the king's law? Do you still have the law? Aren't you bullying me? Pull out! Pull out! Don't stop just because I'm talking!"

"You can't just pretend to be pitiful and not work because I'm soft-hearted. How can that work? Who's responsible for supervising him? Hurry up and step up~ He's slacking off while I'm talking..."

Han Hongbing came over, fiddling with a thin wire in his hand, and was wrapping his Chicken Explosion brand lighter around the wire:
"I, I, I'm trying to get stronger. I also think the old guy is not a good person, so I'm going to hang a chicken lighter on his Der and bake an egg."

As he was about to demonstrate how to tie the wire to the other person's bird, the middle-aged man immediately became excited. He gritted his teeth and pulled out more than a dozen hairs of his companion. He held them in his hands and counted loudly!
The sudden attack caused the worker who was leaning back against him to stagger straight away due to the pain!
Then the situation suddenly became interesting.

The man probably knew that he would not have a good ending, so he didn't need to worry about whether the other party was the leader of the Security Department. It was better to suffer less than anything else, so he just followed suit and took some money from the leader!

The pain was so severe that the middle-aged leader almost lost his voice!

"Oh, that's right. Revolution is not just a dinner party. We need to work hard with the same enthusiasm as in revolution! Let's all work harder." Xie Hushan nodded with satisfaction.

After speaking to the man, Xie Hushan slowly walked to the woman and squatted down:

"Sister, don't be afraid. I'm a reasonable person. Just tell me the truth now. Let's talk about what you are selling."

"If you want to make a pot of it, one cent at a time, then I'll let my brothers have a good time with my 7,000 yuan tonight, and let you count it for me, is that ok?"

The woman trembled, lowered her head and cried, not daring to speak.

Xie Hushan stared at the woman as she took out a few dimes from her pocket, threw them on her head, and slowly spoke:
"If you don't say anything, I'll assume you're here to mess things up. Take off your clothes. I'll give you ten bucks first."

"There's no point in shouting. You picked a bad time. Except for the production workshop, everyone else has gone off work. From now on, we'll play until dawn, so no one will come."

He casually reached out his hands and began to unbutton the woman's shirt one button at a time. The woman was so frightened that she quickly covered her clothes with her hands and cried out in a shrill voice:
"Brother! Brother! I'm going to sell steel! Five hundred dollars a ton! Five hundred dollars a ton!"

"Can you make the decision on your own for such a big deal?" Xie Hushan retracted his hand and continued to ask.

At the same time, he glanced at the leader of the Security Department who was being frantically depilated by the woman's husband.

The woman immediately understood: "Director Huang...Director Huang asked me to go."

"Yeah." Xie Hushan nodded with satisfaction, then thought for a moment and continued to ask:
"Do you prefer to pull out your own, your man's, or Director Huang's?"

It is said that women can be scary when they become ruthless. This elder sister was originally paralyzed with fear, but when she heard what Xie Hushan said, she jumped up, stood at the door, and held her man with her left hand and Director Huang with her right hand. She worked efficiently.

A woman made two men scream like pigs being slaughtered!
"Tsk tsk, it is said that women hold up half the sky." Xie Hushan felt his crotch go cold as he watched the scene, and said while breathing in cold air. At around five in the morning, when the steel mill was about to start work, Chen Daxi, who had delivered the letter overnight, came back with reinforcements from Zhongping.

Zhang Cheng, the armed forces minister of Zhongping Commune, was sitting in the co-pilot seat of Zhongping Commune's NJ-130. He arrived late with the militiamen of the Zhongping Battalion, just like a warlord leader.

Xie Hushan had expected Zhang Cheng to come. Han Laogou could not show up easily because he was the backbone of the entire team.

If the other side does not send out the county magistrate first, we promise that we will never release Han Laogou first.

His master Zhang Cheng is the armed minister of the commune and a member of the Zhongping Brigade. He has connections with the county armed department, local garrisons, and various government agencies through his comrades-in-arms. He can act tough or soft as he pleases.

Behind the truck were two hand tractors from the steel rolling mill. Two red flags were hung on the front of the tractors. They were the two red flags that Xie Hushan and his militia had won back for Zhongping at the reservoir. One side had "Pioneer" written on it, and the other side had "Divine Soldiers" written on it. At this time, the two flags were fluttering in the morning breeze!

The trucks and tractor beds were full of people, and behind them was a traffic flow consisting of dozens of bicycles.

"You kid, you're already the factory director, why are you still not quiet?" Zhang Cheng yawned, jumped out of the car, and looked at Xie Hushan who was coming towards him:

"What's going on? Why are you the only one detained by the steel mill?"

"Master, why are you here alone? Shouldn't you go out with Old Feng?" Xie Hushan was a little confused when he didn't see the commune's special commissioner Feng Chunlai.

It is impossible for Han Laogou not to let Feng Chun participate in this matter. He must let Zhang Cheng bring him along to ensure that there are reliable official witnesses for his actions.

"We'll be there soon. While we're back in the county, Lao Feng can buy some breakfast for his wife and children and go back to take a look." Zhang Cheng put his hands on his waist and shook his upper body and said, "Introduce the situation."

Xie Hushan told Zhang Cheng the truth about what happened to him, and Zhang Cheng grimaced:

"You guys should just collect iron properly, why do you have to do this? How can you destroy the unity?"

"I didn't do it. They did it to each other. They are so cruel. After all, they are from the city. They dared to do it. It made my eyelids jump. Especially that woman. She got rid of the two men. They are definitely not married. Anyway, I don't think my wife would do that to me." Xie Hushan handed Zhang Cheng a cigarette and said:
"But it's not without benefits. They exposed all the shit they did to each other."

"Forget it. I'll go find someone to talk to the leaders of the steel plant and get you some scrap steel. As for the people, let the factory deal with them. The steel plant is very powerful and has so many workers. If the matter gets out of hand, Secretary Yin of the commune might even be reprimanded by the county. Secretary Yin was already bullied like a young wife by Secretary Han, and now he has to take the blame for you?" Zhang Cheng said maturely.

He felt that the best thing to do in this situation was to hand over the people to the factory. He had some connections in the factory. As for deducting money or detaining people, he called his comrades and friends from the county armed forces department to come out, and both sides sat down and had a drink. The steel plant would definitely give his apprentice some compensation.

If the relationship really gets to the end, it will be a bad ending.

The steel plant generates so much profit every year. If it gets really impatient, it will call the county leaders and Mr. Yin from the commune will have a heart attack again.

"What I mean is that I'm talking about 500 yuan a ton, and the price outside is 700 yuan a ton. No matter how many tons the commune leaders agree on, I'll charge 700 yuan. The remaining 200 yuan belongs to the commune. I can't let it go for nothing. Old Feng, you commune leaders have worked hard, right?"

"A ton of scrap steel costs two hundred? Is this broken thing so valuable?" Zhang Cheng's eyes widened immediately as he saw the price.

From Secretary Yin on down, everyone in the commune is crazy about money. It's not that everyone wants to embezzle money, but they have no money to add anything to the commune. The commune has no regular factories to make profits, only one glass factory, which is about to go bankrupt. They always want to count on the commune for a life-saving transfusion.

For example, the commune's broken NJ-130 should have been replaced long ago. The county is willing to give it a quota, but the commune does not have the money to do so.

The original plan was to wait until his disciple Xie Hushan's steel mill business picked up, and then the commune's old Yin would send him to ask for alms from his disciple...

Now you don’t have to beg for alms, you can earn money just by standing!
One ton costs 210 yuan, ten tons costs 212 yuan, and thirty tons can buy a good second-hand car for the commune. Last time, I heard that the county insulation material factory wanted to sell their TJ- jeep and replace it with a jeep. The asking price seemed to be just over yuan...

In an instant, Zhang Cheng had already figured out the brand of the new car the commune had bought...

"Master?" Xie Hushan looked at Zhang Cheng and asked in a low voice.

Zhang Cheng came back to his senses, looked at Xie Hushan, frowned and said: "You are so seriously injured, why are you still here? Don't stay in the front line with serious injuries! The commune must ask you for an explanation for this matter!"

"Ah?" Xie Hushan asked blankly.

"Yougen, Shengli, bring a few more people. Hu San was beaten by the steel factory and has comminuted fractures all over his body!" Zhang Cheng shouted to the militia behind him:
"Hurry up and send him to the county hospital! Someone's going to die. Find Lao Ma, the second-in-command of the hospital labor union, and tell him that Zhang Cheng from Zhongping Commune sent him there! Let Lao Ma perform the surgery and bandage him himself!"

As the militia dragged Xie Hushan to the back, Zhang Cheng put his hands on his hips and looked towards the steel plant:
"You beat our director of public security into a mess! Is there still any law? Is there still any law? Hurry up, drive the car sideways and block the gate of the steel plant! If you don't give me an explanation, don't even think about opening the gate!"
