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

"Brother, do you think you can really learn any skills from Mrs. Chang?"

Lu Weiguo did not answer.

Instead, he looked at Lu Baojia seriously.

In times of crisis, family is the most reliable.

He used to think that since he was capable, his family could do whatever they wanted.

But when it really came down to needing people...

He really doesn't trust anyone other than his family.

"Huh? You think I've really gone to learn some kind of fortune-telling? Do I look like someone who believes in that stuff?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Weiguo was completely stunned.

What do you mean?

You do not believe?

You don't believe me? Every time I see you, you act all mysterious and strange, like you're possessed.

Meeting Lu Weiguo's strange gaze, Lu Baojia took a deep drag on his cigarette.

"Weiguo, do you really think your older brother is stupid? Look at you lately, you're always fighting this or that."

I don't know why you've changed so much lately, but I know that no matter what you become, you'll always be my brother.

Since you're younger and I'm older, I have to stand in front of you no matter what.

As Lu Baojia said this, just like when they were children, he patted Lu Weiguo's head.

The two brothers were about the same height, and Lu Baojia's head-patting gesture wasn't as natural as before.

In a daze, I really felt that Lu Weiguo had grown up.

"Our father is an honest farmer. Don't let his loud voice fool you; he's a tough guy when things get tough, but he's been honest and hardworking his whole life and can't handle any major storms."

Your brother here isn't very capable either. For the first half of my life, besides farming, I haven't known anything else.

There was no one around whom I could rely, except for Old Mrs. Chang.

At this point, Lu Weiguo finally understood.

Honestly, he never expected that his usually honest and unassuming older brother would have such a clever mind.

Later generations have created many inspirational quotes, such as "As long as you work hard, you will reap the rewards."

What is the point of hard work? It is the only way to succeed.

These words were utterly ridiculous to Lu Weiguo, who had lived two lives.

You'll definitely reap no rewards if you don't work hard, but even if you do work hard, you still need to seize opportunities.

In a lifetime, such opportunities only come once or twice.

For Lu Baojia, Old Mrs. Chang was an absolutely golden opportunity.

From being complete strangers to developing a close relationship, it was all because of Lu Weiguo.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Mrs. Chang's house has been surrounded by neighbors for the past few years.

But when they were kids, those who went there were all legendary "high-ranking officials and nobles".

Even leaders of Harbin have personally come to seek help from the shaman.

His connections, plus his knack for rubbing poison in the back.

Once you learn it, you can always provide shelter for your family.

Most importantly, Mrs. Chang really didn't have any apprentices.

Everyone says that becoming a fortune teller depends on fate, but Lu Baojia feels that it can also be done through observation, imitation, and experience.

"Brother, that makes sense. Now that you say it, I understand." Lu Weiguo punched Lu Baojia hard.

"Holy crap, when did you get so strong? Stop asking me what's going on over there." Lu Baojia couldn't bear to hit Lu Weiguo.

All I could do was pat him on the shoulder.

"Brother, the situation is similar to what I said before, but, just in case—and I mean just in case—I really didn't manage to defeat the other side..."

You take our parents and run away immediately. Here's a letter of introduction; take it first. I remember our hometown is Lujiatun, Jinzhou, Liaoning Province.

"Our father had been in contact with them before, so you should go directly there."

After Lu Weiguo finished speaking, he pushed the cart home towards the rising sun, preparing to take his two children to his mother-in-law's house.

The village chief will take care of the family's purchasing station, and he will definitely not refuse.

Er Mei and the others have even less to worry about.

With Li Huifang's two sisters-in-law taking care of her, she probably eats better than she would at his home.

The busy time is like a motor running at full speed.

After arranging everything, Lu Weiguo hung two baskets on the back of his bicycle.

Lu Jiahuan and Lu Jiacheng each had one on either side of them.

Wrapped in a cotton quilt, it was placed in the basket.

The ropes we prepared for the hunt were not wasted.

They were all strapped to the back seat.

Hunting rifles, machetes, and even that sniper rifle.

Lu Weiguo carried it with him at first, and then hid it somewhere when they were almost in the county town.

This is a mountainous area after all. If you just find a hilltop and bury something, not everyone can find it.

. . . . .

Early in the morning.

Inside the police compound, veteran policeman Brother Liu watched the latest developments and secretly marveled at Lu Weiguo's methods.

ruthless!

That's fucking ruthless!

But it looks really cool!

"Did you all see it? If anyone didn't get their fill, we'll go to the hospital later and check it out up close to see how badly those little bastards got beaten up."

Old Liu handed the information with the photo to the young man next to him.

Then he waved to call all the young men who were training in the yard into the meeting room.

With Lu Weiguo's reminder, Zhao Kaishan made good use of Lao Liu, an old police officer, and purged all the older generation.

Of course, he wouldn't simply fire him; he didn't have the ability to do so.

They simply replaced key positions in the city with this group of trustworthy, young, and passionate people.

Those with connections were either assigned to the security department of state-owned factories or directly given a current position in a state-owned factory.

Lu Weiguo had told him that there was no need to lay off these people, or to promote them in name only but demote them in reality.

They were transferred to idle positions in state-owned factories.

No one would refuse. In less than two years, with the reform of the system, all the state-owned factories that were named would face restructuring.

And the guard team will become an invaluable chapter in history.

It's fair to say that being transferred out of the police force is essentially the same as being dismissed.

Zhao Kaishan believed it.

Therefore, at this time, the public security bureau was full of energetic and passionate young people!

"Ahem, I've read the messages. It was quite a commotion last night. You guys are really good at keeping your cool."

As soon as Lao Liu finished speaking...

The group of young men below immediately erupted in excitement.

"Damn, that guy's awesome! We've wanted to teach these guys a lesson for ages, we've arrested them several times, and they've all been let go!"

"Yeah, I went to the hospital to maintain order yesterday, and it was so satisfying to watch. All the doctors were dumbfounded. The most arrogant one, though, got a ruptured testicle."

Haha, the doctor means we should just cut it all off!

"Yeah, why couldn't we hold back? That guy is our benefactor! If it weren't for him, how could we avenge my brother!"

"Pah, pah, pah!" Old Liu pointed at the group of young men and cursed them. "You little brats, watch your mouths! Do you think we should be saying these things?"

Have you come to your senses yet? But since things have escalated to this point, we can't just stand by and do nothing.

These next few days, the kids will have to work hard. Notify the other units to all go out on duty, especially in the key areas.

Maintaining public order is our duty.

After Lao Liu finished speaking, everyone laughed.

Key places, key people.

No need to spell it out, everyone knows who it is!

They remembered all the help Lu Weiguo had given them.

These young men had some knowledge of the Qian family's capabilities and the methods they used.

They cannot do anything that breaks the law.

But watching those people not break the law is simply their duty.
