Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

"That kid from the Wu family sells fish in the county. He's just like his father, a bad influence who's made friends with a bunch of hooligans."

Tian Bingyi curled his lip and said that Wu Laoda's son was no better than his father.

However, he still took Fang Wei's words to heart and prepared to tell his close club members to keep an eye on that kid's movements.

“Brother-in-law, we can’t just wait passively. We should take the initiative to explain the situation to the police station. Whether it’s useful or not, it’s always good to say hello.”

Fang Wei asked Tian Bingyi to talk to the relevant departments about this matter. Although they had not taken any action, they had publicly threatened to retaliate against Fang Wei and Tian Bingyi, so they could call the police.

This might not solve the problem, but it will at least intimidate that guy.

"Okay! I'll go to the village tomorrow."

Tian Bingyi listened to Fang Wei quite well, and the next day he went to the township government to talk to the relevant departments about the matter.

Someone went to the county to find that kid and gave him a warning in person.

After hearing about this, Pan Lianhua was a little worried: "Third Brother, won't that bad guy retaliate against our child?"

"Putting aside whether the other party knows Binbin and Xiaojie or not, the two children attend school and don't usually leave the school grounds. Even if he wanted to take revenge, he wouldn't have the chance. From now on, I'll pick them up every time they come home, and that way, there won't be any problems."

Fang Wei comforted his wife, but in his heart he was thinking about how to eliminate this hidden danger.

The Wu brothers didn't have many children; the others were all girls, and their only son was that boy.

"Third Brother, this is no laughing matter. You must think of a way."

"Well, I will."

the next day.

Fang Wei called Zheng Bao to his office.

"Brother Leopard, you know a lot of people, can you do me a favor and investigate this kid's movements?"

He and Zheng Bao were very close, so he told Zheng Bao everything about the matter and asked him to keep an eye on things.

Zheng Bao associates with all sorts of people and knows some of the local thugs, which Fang Wei can't match.

"It's nothing. I think that kid's got a death wish. Don't worry, I'll keep a close eye on him."

Zheng Bao was a little angry. How dare that brat threaten the Party Secretary? If he wasn't worried about causing trouble for Fang Wei, he would have someone break both of that guy's legs right now.

After leaving the office, he went to the county town.

He first arrived at a general store located on the old street. The owner was a man in his thirties who used to be a layabout.

But after the crackdown in the past few years, many people he knew were imprisoned. This person suddenly realized his mistake and devoted himself to running the store.

However, although he no longer gets involved in messy things, many people still give him some face.

Zheng Bao had helped him before, so he asked the other party to find out about the Wu family boy's whereabouts.

"No problem, Brother Leopard, go back and wait for my news."

The shop owner was very efficient and quickly replied to Zheng Bao.

Zheng Bao then went to Fang Wei's office and said, "Secretary, I've inquired around, and that kid always threatens revenge whenever he drinks. If all else fails, we should strike first and have someone cripple him."

"No way! We can't do anything illegal, not even to protect ourselves. Leopard, have someone keep an eye on him. If this kid does anything unusual, please let me know as soon as possible."

"Needless to say, someone will be keeping an eye on him. Party Secretary, if you need any help, just let me know. If it's inconvenient for you to come in person, just leave it to me, and I'll handle it perfectly."

Zheng Bao then got up and left, and Fang Wei couldn't help but shake his head.

Leopard is a loyal and daring guy, but his only problem is that he has too much of a gangster mentality. He's really not comfortable entrusting this matter to the other party, not because he doesn't trust Zheng Bao, but because he doesn't trust his cronies.

But it's still fine to ask them to help find out some information.

weekend.

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua arrived in the county town ahead of time. They quietly went to the market and met the Wu family's son for the first time.

This guy wasn't very tall, only about 1.7 meters, but he was quite muscular and didn't look like a good person.

"Third Brother, I remember what he looks like."

Pan Lianhua remembered the boy's appearance, and Fang Wei naturally remembered it clearly as well.

So the two followed the flow of people out of the market to pick up their child from school.

Fang Wei parked the Jeep across from the school, and Pan Lianhua stood at the school gate waiting. He wanted to see if that kid had his eye on his child, but even after Binbin and Xiaojie got into the car, he didn't see the man.

Along the way, Pan Lianhua kept telling the children not to leave the school gate and to wait for their families to pick them up during breaks.

"Dad, Mom, do we have enemies? Otherwise, you wouldn't be so cautious."

Binbin reacted quickly and immediately realized the problem.

Pan Lianhua had no choice but to explain the whole story, and then said that this was just a precaution, and there was no need to worry too much.

Fortunately, the children weren't that rebellious, and they all nodded in agreement.

Fang Wei put the matter aside; it was really unnecessary to make a fuss over such a small-time hoodlum.

He then spent a few days at Xinlin Farm and Yangshan Farm, spending more time at Yangshan Farm. As the facilities at Yangshan Farm were gradually completed, the entire farm underwent a dramatic transformation.

Both of the [Yu Xiang 083] plants are growing well, with a growth cycle of about 80 days, and it may even be shorter.

Fang Wei plans to focus on cultivating the [Yu Xiang 083] seed at Yangshan Farm in the future. High-yield corn seeds have a large sales volume, since corn is planted in large quantities from south to north.

Depending on the local climate conditions, cultivating corn seeds is similar to cultivating other cash crop seeds, with three seasons a year and guaranteed yields.

Rice seed cultivation is mainly carried out in cooperatives, while Xinlin Farm can focus on cultivating soybean and vegetable seeds.

Fang Wei made a plan in his mind, intending to implement it after the spring of next year.

After returning home, he rested for two days before going back to work at the company.

“Secretary, something seems a bit off. My friend said that the Wu family’s son has been asking about your family situation lately. Although he hasn’t caused any trouble at the school, you should still be careful.”

Zheng Bao was the first to come in and bring him bad news.

He is now basically certain that the kid is not just talking, but will actually take action.

"I understand, thank you, Brother Leopard."

Fang Wei listened calmly to what the other person had to say, then thanked them. "Secretary, should we make the first move?"

Zheng Bao suddenly revealed a fierce glint in his eyes and made a downward cutting gesture with his right hand.

Fang Wei shook her head, and Fang left reluctantly.

He wouldn't do such a thing. There are no secrets in this world, and asking someone to do something is inherently risky.

In Fang Wei's memory, the leader of a famous manor back then had fallen because of something similar. If necessary, he would take action himself and would never ask anyone else for help.

in the afternoon.

Fang Wei drove to the county town and went directly to Wu's boy's stall.

"Your fish is no good, it tastes too muddy, and you're still charging such a high price. Kid, I heard you're always threatening to take revenge on this person and that person. Are you trying to follow in your bastard father's footsteps?"

Fang Wei first pretended to select fish, but she kept finding fault with them.

The young man from the Wu family noticed him, glanced at him twice, and his eyes suddenly turned strange. Although he wasn't familiar with Fang Wei, he had seen him on some occasion. Otherwise, what was the point of constantly talking about revenge if he didn't even know what Fang Wei looked like?

At first he didn't recognize her, but now he was certain that this picky customer was Fang Wei.

After all, the other party had essentially made it clear, and those words deeply stung the young man from the Wu family.

"Fine, fine! Fang Wei, I haven't even come looking for you yet, and you've already come knocking on my door. Go ahead and say what you just said again, if you dare?"

The kid was young after all, and he immediately lost his guard, grabbing the fish-killing knife and pointing it at Fang Wei while shouting.

People around Fang Wei urged him to leave quickly, whispering that this guy was no good and there was no need to risk his life.

"So what if I said it? Your deadbeat father was a scoundrel, and he's still a scoundrel when it comes to you."

Fang Wei looked down on the kid and didn't even glance at the knife in his hand.

The young man from the Wu family couldn't stand it any longer. He walked around from behind the stall and shouted, "I'll kill you!"

After saying that, the guy raised his knife and stabbed at Fang Wei.

Fang Wei didn't dare to let her guard down at all. Her nonchalant attitude just now was all an act, intended to provoke the other party.

At this moment, his personal attributes were fully activated, and the opponent's thrusting knife seemed to move in slow motion, its trajectory clearly visible.

Fang Wei sidestepped, reached out and accurately grabbed the man's arm holding the knife, then raised one foot and kicked the boy's shin hard. Everyone heard a "crack" sound; the man's leg bone broke.

Fang Wei is now much stronger than ordinary people. His strength and reaction speed are extraordinary. He timed his attacks perfectly, giving the kid no time to react.

Then he grabbed the other man's arm and twisted it backward, and there was another "crack" sound. The guy's arm broke, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground.

With a single kick and twist, Fang Wei crippled one of the opponent's legs and one of his arms.

The boy immediately screamed in pain, and Fang Wei released his grip, letting him fall to the ground. At this point, he couldn't afford to attack again; before, he had only acted to protect himself from harm, and any form of retaliation was acceptable.

But now that kid has lost the ability to act, it would be easy for someone to find a handle against him if he makes a move again.

Someone at the scene called the police, and soon an ambulance and police officers arrived at the market. There were many eyewitnesses at the scene, some of whom had long disliked Wu's son. They stepped forward to testify that Fang Wei had injured the other party in self-defense.

"Secretary Fang, please come back with us."

One of the police officers recognized Fang Wei, so he told his colleague and then politely took him back to the station.

Before long, Cui Yiming was alerted, and the other party rushed over to ask what had happened.

Someone reported to him that the facts were clear: many people saw Wu's son committing the crime with a knife, and Fang Wei was only trying to protect himself.

"Secretary Cui, the person is definitely crippled. I didn't expect Secretary Fang to be so ruthless."

"Are you even speaking human language? You have to understand that it was extremely dangerous at the time. If you were to be careless for even a moment, the knife would have pierced Secretary Fang's chest. When faced with a life-threatening situation, who has time to consider the force of their blows? Just being able to save one's life is already a blessing."

Cui Yiming didn't think Fang Wei had gone too far. Wu's kid clearly wanted to kill in revenge, so it was perfectly normal for him to be killed in return.

He knew about the Wu brothers' case; those brothers were scoundrels who deserved to die. And now their descendants want to retaliate against the righteous masses—is there no justice left?

So his expression immediately turned sour.

“I misspoke and deserve criticism. Our opinion is that once the statement is taken, Secretary Fang can go home first, but he needs to cooperate with the investigation and be available whenever needed.”

"You don't need to report to me on the specifics of what to do. Secretary Fang, you can leave now?"

"Yes, he can leave now."

Cui Yiming then left with Fang Wei and even sent someone to take her back.

The news had already spread throughout the community. When Pan Lianhua saw the man return, she couldn't help but feel a mix of sorrow and joy.

"Third Brother, why are you so impulsive? What will happen to me and the child if something happens to you?"

Others may not know, but Pan Lianhua knows it perfectly well.

Fang Wei took such a big risk to personally intervene because he was worried that the Wu family boy would harm the children. There were actually many other solutions to this problem, but they were all too slow, and Fang Wei didn't want the children to be in danger.

"It's alright, it's all over now."

The matter may not be over yet, but the Wu family boy is definitely not going to get out.

Wu Laoda was a person who had been suppressed. As Wu Laoda's descendant, he actually committed a malicious act of revenge with a knife. He will probably have to stay in jail for many years. The key point is that the other party is crippled. Fang Wei knows very well how heavy his blows are.

Next, Zhao Jinsheng and others came to visit Fang Wei. Even Zhao Yong from the village, upon hearing the news, personally made a trip.

Everyone knew that Fang Wei was in the right, and that he deserved to cripple the other party.

Only Zheng Bao knew what had happened: Secretary Fang had deliberately risked his life to eliminate a major hidden danger. He certainly wouldn't tell anyone; the matter would remain a secret to him.

Even if I told you, no one would believe me. The moment Wu's son attacked with a knife, many people thought Fang Wei was doomed.

This matter is really dangerous; at least Zheng Bao doesn't think he's confident he can escape unscathed.

The next few days were uneventful, but as the investigation deepened, Wu's son's usual behavior came to light, including his frequent threats to kill Tian Bingyi and Fang Wei's entire family.

When the Wu brothers were executed, many people believed that Tian Bingyi provided the evidence. But no one knew the role Fang Wei played in it.

The relevant departments also believe that Fang Wei was implicated because of Tian Bingyi, a conclusion that aligns with Wu's son's testimony. However, some believe that Fang Wei deliberately provoked Wu's son at the market that day, suggesting it was premeditated.

So, Fang Wei was invited to the police station again. (End of Chapter)
