Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

The moon is full, and the night is deep.

Alone, a night of murder!

Lu Weiguo took off his cotton-padded coat and put it on inside out.

The front is dark green, making it suitable for daytime wear.

At night, the white back perfectly conceals his figure.

With no more burdens around him, Lu Weiguo unleashed his full speed.

After being reborn, although there was no system, his physical fitness continued to improve.

Of course, this includes all bodily functions.

For example, endurance, eyesight, and stamina in certain aspects.

A fleeting shadow flashed by in the moonlight.

Before long, the sounds of many people talking and bragging could be heard.

The boasting of the Northeastern men drowned out all other sounds in the forest.

Every now and then, a grass character appears.

They keep cursing and showing off how awesome they are.

"So many people?" Lu Weiguo found a rocky outcrop, a place where stones gathered on the mountainside.

He dug himself a snow cave for one person.

A wolfskin rug was laid on the ground, and I took out my sniper rifle and aimed it in the direction of the sound.

Having a sniper rifle makes things much easier than before.

If he could hit the target, he wouldn't mind just blowing that kid's head off with one shot!

He currently lacks the power to ensure that fairness and justice take root and flourish in the county.

But he had the ability to uphold the justice in his heart.

"One, two, three... so many people? Has the Qian family gone mad, acting so brazenly?"

Looking at Qian Duolai, who was surrounded, Lu Weiguo gained a better understanding of the Qian family's power.

It's important to know that the Zhao family has already begun to exert their influence.

Despite this, the fact that the Qian family can act so recklessly shows just how powerful their influence is in the county.

"I wonder if Old Zhao even saw that brocade pouch. Is he even thinking straight?"

Lu Weiguo sighed as he recalled the three letters he had hastily written.

If possible, he still felt it was better to handle those things himself.

But after all, if he doesn't take action, absolutely no one will dare to be so bold as to touch Qian Duolai.

Anyone who has used a sniper rifle knows that this is not like the kind in games.

Aim and shoot wherever you want.

It also takes into account factors such as wind speed and terrain.

For example, right now, the north wind is howling, strong enough to blow a little squirrel away.

Lu Weiguo aimed for a long time, but still didn't know where to aim.

Since he wasn't a professional, he felt it was more convenient to use a hunting rifle.

Just as he was fiddling with the scope.

Two figures flashed past.

Lu Weiguo immediately turned his scope in that direction.

Two figures could be seen, one in front and one behind, closely following the group.

A short person was walking in front.

Another one looked quite familiar, being pulled along by a rope by a short man.

Taking one step while dragging your feet is clearly a sign that your body has reached its limit.

"Zhang Benmo?"

Lu Weiguo paused for a moment after seeing who it was.

"What's this kid doing here?"

but!

After his initial doubts, a complex web quietly began to weave in his mind.

This is exactly what they call a pillow for someone who's about to fall asleep.

Doing it yourself carries risks.

And those two, fighting like dogs, are just perfect!

Time passed second by second.

Lu Weiguo packed his things, calculated the distance, and then entered the woods from the side of the mountain.

Three groups of people, with different goals, but the same objective.

After three consecutive days, we finally reached the border.

The Qian family in the county town.

As Qian Yunshan was sleeping with his wife in his arms, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart.

It was as if they were about to lose something.

I plopped myself up in bed.

He glanced at his wife beside him.

She tiptoed out of the bedroom.

The once noisy house was now completely silent.

The son's room was also cleaned out; it was completely empty, as if no one had ever lived there.

I took a walk around the villa.

Qian Yunshan felt a wave of loneliness wash over him.

I didn't realize it when my son was around.

But just a few days after his son left, his previous energy suddenly vanished.

My son isn't around.

Why does he work so hard to earn money and accumulate capital?

"Ring ring, ring ring."

Just as he entered the study, preparing to take out a glass of Moutai and have a good night's sleep...

The phone rang in the study.

I checked the time.

It was already past midnight.

Who can make a phone call at this time?

"Hey, get to the point."

Qian Yunshan said in a low voice.

"County Chief Qian! I found out where Zhao Kaishan is. Guess where I just saw him?"

On the other end of the phone was his secretary.

No one but him dared to call him at this time.

"Spit it out, I bet it's your mom!"

Qian Yunshan was already feeling troubled.

That made me even more upset!

"Hehe, County Chief Qian, don't be angry. I went to buy some illegally sourced coal today, and before I even got home, I saw Zhao Kaishan getting off the truck carrying the coal."

If this is thoroughly investigated and evidence is found, it would be a case of a county head being connected with illegal coal mining operations.

His good days are over!

Although Northeast China has a collective economy, resources are collectively distributed.

But not everyone has a job, and not every family has the same accommodation conditions.

Some houses simply don't have enough coal to burn.

The only way to get through the winter was to buy smuggled coal.

At this time, private coal mining wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

Most of them were children of coal mine leaders who used their family connections to transport coal to surrounding county towns for sale.

A truckload of coal, after deducting costs, can generate a profit of at least three or four hundred yuan.

In this era.

A single trip takes only three to five days and yields an income of three to four hundred yuan.

This is how many families accumulated their initial capital.

"Private coal mining? Does he need the money? Probably not. If he were that short of money, we'd just give him a share! Why would he need to deal in that stuff himself!"

Qian Yunshan was somewhat skeptical.

Don't be fooled by how much money you made on this trip.

Coal is not only dangerous, but it's also easy for it to be stolen.

So on this trip, as long as there's coal on the train, you can't close your eyes.

It's quite a tough job.

Most people can't stand not sleeping for two or three days in a row.

"County Magistrate Qian, you can't say that. Who would complain about having too much money at home?"

Besides, I don't think he was driving, so I guess the two of them were taking turns resting.

Don't let his glasses and honest appearance fool you; I really underestimated him before.

"He's someone you can talk to? Why don't you go buy some smuggled coal yourself? Keep an eye on him, and record the times."

Tomorrow! No, the day after tomorrow, let's go meet this honest and upright deputy county head!

Qian Yunshan laughed very unrestrainedly.

Selling illegally obtained coal is a more serious crime than speculation!

Speculation and profiteering at most involves rice, flour, grains, and oil.

But coal mines are resources, and they must never be touched.

Having this leverage, and knowing what kind of person Zhao Kaishan was, he felt much more at ease.

I'm not afraid of him being greedy, I'm afraid of him not being greedy.

Of course, what he didn't know was that because his heart was black, he saw everyone else's heart as black as his own.

The documents that had already been picked up were disrupted by this phone call.

It was put down again.

Fate, luck, and feng shui are the three most important factors in life.

Sometimes, luck really is a part of ability.
