Fishing and Hunting 82, Starting with Three Sisters Who Overprotect Their Brothers

Chapter 151 Director

Cao Zhigang immediately stepped forward, softened his tone, and reassured him, "Comrade Zhang, your father and brother-in-law are fine. It's getting late, don't make things difficult for them."

"Didn't they say venison doesn't keep well?"

"Let's disperse for now. Once we've found out what happened, we'll definitely punish them severely."

Zhang Wenshan lowered his eyelids and said calmly, "As long as you handle this fairly, we are willing to cooperate with the investigation."

Liu Dahai and his group immediately breathed a sigh of relief, their eyes revealing secret joy.

He really is a country bumpkin who's never seen anything like it.

As long as I don't get taken to a farm machinery factory, everything is negotiable.

Once you're in the police station, it's just like going home.

Anyway, the meat has already been returned. At most, I'll get a couple of scoldings, and I'll be out in a couple of days. It's no big deal.

The young policeman behind him also relaxed and subconsciously took half a step forward: "This comrade is really understanding, then let's—"

"Shut up."

Cao Zhigang reprimanded the young comrade, then fell silent.

What does it mean to handle things fairly?

What does it mean to be willing to cooperate with an investigation?

So what if they just won't accept a settlement?

"What, is it that difficult to handle?" Zhang Wenshan continued to exert pressure.

He could understand that the other party was in a difficult situation, and he also knew that the current circumstances were like this.

But she would still need to do business in town in the future, and her eldest sister and the fishing and hunting group couldn't be on guard all the time, especially since her second sister's husband's family lived in town.

These people are clearly not kind-hearted; once the wound heals, they'll definitely look for an opportunity to retaliate.

If we don't take action now, what will happen later?

Since we've become enemies, we must nip it in the bud.

Cao Zhigang pursed his lips, caught in a dilemma, a few drops of sweat seeping from his forehead.

Just when he was at his wit's end, a heavenly sound came from behind him.

"The director is here."

Another young man jogged ahead to clear the way, attracting a middle-aged man in his early forties.

The person who arrived had messy hair, an open collar, and a uniform jacket haphazardly thrown on. It was obvious that he had been dragged out of bed and rushed over without even dressing properly.

"Where are you!"

Lin Deqiang, Hong Yuan, and the others subconsciously stepped aside and greeted each other politely.

Liu Dahai and the others' eyes lit up instantly.

As if grasping at a straw, they scrambled forward, shouting their grievances, "Director He, you have to help us! Our joint defense team was just following the rules. We found some venison of dubious origin and were about to question them carefully when the security guards from the agricultural machinery factory came up and started beating us without asking any questions!"

Some people even rolled up their sleeves, revealing a bruise on their arm.

"Look at me, I can barely lift my arm anymore. If it's ruined, how will my family survive? You have to get justice for us."

Lin Deqiang was furious upon hearing this.

He clenched his fists, veins bulging, and was about to step forward to argue.

"Second brother-in-law, don't be impulsive." Zhang Wenshan reached out and gently pulled Lin Deqiang's arm. "Who is this director?"

"Road? What kind of person is he?"

Throwing tantrums, acting shamelessly, and distorting the truth are exactly what these people are good at.

If you actually argue with them, you'll only be at a disadvantage.

Even if you win the argument, it's not very useful.

Lin Deqiang took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "He Yaoguo is alright. He's sociable and can talk to anyone."

"They have principles, but they're also quite tactful!"

"That's roughly the idea," Lin Deqiang nodded.

While the two were talking in hushed tones, He Yaoguo had already pulled Cao Zhigang aside and asked him about the whole story.

His face darkened, and he kicked Liu Dahai in the shoulder, knocking him to the ground.

Before Liu Dahai could get up, He Yaoguo immediately put on a smiling face and quickly walked up to Hong Yuan and his wife.

"I'm so sorry, it's all a misunderstanding. Venison is delicate and won't keep well. Please take it back quickly, or we can't take responsibility if it spoils."

"As for their food, once the matter is resolved, we will make sure they are fully reimbursed."

Hong Yuan and his wife exchanged a glance, both seeing hesitation in each other's eyes.

The police station chief has adopted such a humble attitude; if we don't agree, it's disrespectful and will offend people.

If they agree, it's tantamount to admitting that the venison belongs to their state-run restaurant, and it's also equivalent to giving up their right to pursue the matter.

That's tantamount to giving up on helping my little brother.

"Sister Xia, let's do as Director He says."

Zhang Wenshan spoke with a smile, his tone calm.

He could see clearly that He Yaoguo's move had precisely grasped the key point.

venison!

He needs to make money by selling venison, and state-run restaurants want to buy venison, but only on the condition that the venison doesn't spoil; otherwise, both sides will suffer huge losses, making it a losing proposition.

Hongyuan immediately pushed his wife, who was about to argue, and whispered, "Stop talking nonsense, listen to Xiao Zhang."

As he spoke, he rushed into the house, looked at the cut tenderloin with a pained expression, carefully rewrapped it in oil paper, then picked up the two deer legs and quickly walked out.

"Sister Xia, is that all?" Zhang Wenshan glanced at the venison they had brought out and asked.

"Yes, what's missing?" Wu Xia asked, her voice tinged with apology.

Xiao Zhang took the initiative to speak up and defuse the situation, so as not to put them in a difficult position.

To say I wasn't moved at all would be a lie.

"No, brother-in-law, please have two people help send the venison back." Zhang Wenshan turned to Lin Deqiang and said.

Lin Deqiang waved his hand and immediately separated two officers from the security department, signaling them to follow Hong Yuan and his wife.

After processing the venison.

He Yaoguo turned around, walked quickly to Zhang Jianshe and Zhao Hongwei, and smiled warmly.

They grabbed their hands and shook them back and forth, giving them no chance to refuse.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. We didn't do our job well and caused these two comrades to suffer."

"Comrades, are you injured? Is anything bothering you?"

In their entire lives, the highest-ranking official Zhang Jianshe and Zhao Hongwei had ever met was the brigade cadre in their village. In their eyes, the police station chief was a legendary figure.

Faced with He Yaoguo's humble greeting, Zhao Hongwei subconsciously shook his head.

Zhang Jianshe's face flushed red, and he stammered, "No—"

"Whether something is wrong or not, you can't just say it with your mouth; you have to listen to the doctor."

Zhang Wenshan stepped forward and subtly stood between the two. "I heard there are some injuries that weren't visible at the time, but will flare up in a couple of days. It's best to go to the hospital for a check-up to put your mind at ease."

He Yaoguo's smile froze for a moment.

His gaze instantly fell on Zhang Wenshan, becoming more serious and wary.

He had previously heard Cao Zhigang say that the key to this matter was not Lin Deqiang, but this young man, but he did not take it seriously.

Just consider it spoiling his brother-in-law and letting the young man show off.

Now it seems that it was actually true.

"That's true, it's better to be cautious."

He Yaoguo suppressed his surprise and stopped pressing the matter. He turned to look at Lin Deqiang, his tone softening.

"Long time no see, Deputy Section Chief Lin."

The biggest challenge in this matter is the security department of the agricultural machinery factory.

Once you deal with them, the situation will be under control.
