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

really.

Not long after Uncle Diao dealt with the matter, Director Xiong arrived with two young men who looked somewhat like him, pulling a cart.

The thing on the cart was even more complete.

There were even several wooden barrels used to hold blood.

Upon seeing the tiger hanging high above, Director Xiong's eyes widened in astonishment.

I stood there for several minutes, my body moving slowly toward the tiger as if out of control.

However, just as he was about to touch the tiger, he suddenly realized something.

The tiger was no longer in his eyes. He turned and sidled up to Lu Weiguo: "Good brother, I owe you one. You're truly amazing. In all my years, I've never heard of anyone actually killing a tiger, and leaving it completely intact except for the head."

Brother Weiguo, really, from now on, as long as you don't kill me, I'll grant you any request you make!

No matter how smooth Director Xiong is in his dealings with people, or how tactful he is in his speech.

I was truly excited at that moment.

The two boys following behind him didn't have that kind of composure.

Everyone says that touching a tiger's fur can ward off evil spirits, so I ran over and started touching the tiger's fur.

He looked even more excited than if he were touching his own wife.

The blood that was dripping down was not wasted; every drop was consumed, and there was no fear of bacteria in it.

"A promise is a promise, and I may indeed need your help in the future." Lu Weiguo was no longer being polite.

This almost cost Liu Dazhuang his life. If we don't exchange it for some tangible benefits, we'll be letting Dazhuang down.

"Damn! Of course! You're underestimating your brother. Putting everything else aside, take that human trafficker, as long as the boss doesn't beat him to death..."

I'll bring him out for you, so your son can vent his anger himself. Even if he's beaten to death, it doesn't matter; he can take it all out on that leader.

Everyone present said they were one of their own.

Director Xiong also spoke frankly.

"son?"

Lu Weiguo looked at Lu Jiacheng.

Lu Jiacheng shook his head: "Grandpa, no need, it's all in the past. Just take that young man home. He gave me food those few days, otherwise I would have starved to death."

Seeing his son's kindness, Lu Weiguo was overjoyed.

I know my own worthlessness.

If you want to live a meaningful and clean life, there's nothing wrong with being kind.

Very few people in the world are born evil; only they can do bad things without feeling guilty.

Ordinary people believe that being virtuous leads to longevity.

In Lu Weiguo's view, it simply means he has no pressure or burden in his mind, so his blood pressure is stable.

Ordinary people who have done bad things often carry a heavy burden of stress, resulting in generally high blood pressure, a higher incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and a shorter lifespan.

Upon hearing this, Director Xiong praised Lu Jiacheng once again.

However, when he looked at Lu Weiguo, he said with a slight embarrassment, "Brother, I have something to discuss with you. I've been thinking about it for the past few days..."

I was just bragging to you before, saying that Tiger would split the profits 30/70, but after I went home and discussed it with my dad,

If that leader takes this tiger skin, we won't be able to keep our killing of a tiger a secret anymore.

We can't keep most of what's on this tiger... But I'll compensate you, brother. Name your price, and I promise you won't be shortchanged!

In fact, Lu Weiguo had already guessed this.

This is a tiger, a tiger whose entire body is a treasure.

It's not some kitten or puppy.

There's no such thing as a secret that stays hidden forever.

Let alone the head of a small police station, even his father, or the entire forestry department, might not be able to keep the treasures that certain high-ranking leaders need.

"Brother, that's not fair. I fought the tiger to the death, and my brother almost died here for your fur."

"You're only telling me this now? Isn't that a bit rude? We Northeasterners don't act like that."

Lu Weiguo narrowed his eyes, feigning anger.

It's one thing to have guessed it beforehand, but it's another to maximize profits.

The favor of finding his child, which he had done through the ordeal, was repaid when he agreed to fight the tiger.

All that's left is an exchange of benefits.

Only after they clearly discussed their interests can their relationship improve.

"Oh dear, Wei Guo, brother! It's all my fault, it's all my fault. I only realized what was going on after Grandpa finished speaking."

Look... Besides money, if you need anything else, just tell me, and I'll do whatever I can to make it happen!

"real?"

"Really!!" Director Xiong almost knelt down when he said this.

"So... do you know any leaders in our county's forestry bureau? Or... is it possible for me to get to know them...?"

Lu Weiguo didn't spell things out directly, but instead used roundabout methods to probe Director Xiong's capabilities.

How could Director Xiong not understand what he was saying?

It's clear they want to insert a ready-made forestry bureau leader into Lu Weiguo's group, or at least someone he can associate with and work with.

"This..." Director Xiong hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, he said, "Brother Weiguo, this isn't out of the question."

But you have to promise me, brother, don't do anything illegal. You've never been in officialdom, so you might not know, but don't be fooled by those leaders who indulge in drinking, gambling, and prostitution; they seem to live better lives than anyone else.

But sooner or later they'll get struck by lightning; the saying "wealth and poverty don't last three generations" perfectly illustrates this point.

"Ill-gotten gains will always have consequences; good and evil will ultimately be rewarded. If you can agree to this, I'll have my father use some connections before he retires."

"Don't worry, I promise you that." Lu Weiguo reached out and shook hands with Director Xiong.

As long as this can be done, I don't care about the money.

They wanted to establish themselves in the county town, develop gradually, and then radiate their influence throughout Northeast China.

Cooperation is an indispensable bridge in the relationship with forestry.

If the cooperation is good, it will be a mutually beneficial relationship; if the cooperation is bad, and the bridge is blown up, it will not benefit anyone.

Like many county towns in later generations, it was half prosperous and half poor.

Let's not talk about who's doing well and who's not doing well.

But this is really bad for ordinary people.

Lu Weiguo's ambitions are vast, and this is the only way to achieve them gradually.

Moreover, he already had an idea of ​​who to appoint for the forestry position; it just depended on whether Director Xiong had the ability.

The deal has been struck, so all that's left is to celebrate.

"Take off the thigh meat! Hehe, we'll keep this for ourselves. If anyone causes trouble, we can say this part doesn't have a thigh."

There's still blood left; this stuff is used to make medicinal wine.

And this... this...

Director Xiong divided everything that could be kept into two portions.

Thigh meat, bone, beard, tiger teeth, tiger blood, and finally, he even forcibly placed a piece of bone on the tiger's forehead, wrapped it in red cloth, and hung it around Lu Jiacheng's neck.

"Brother Weiguo, this thing is for warding off evil spirits. I heard you have a daughter. This thing is too strong for a girl. Look, I have a fox tailbone here. If you don't mind, you can take it back for your daughter to wear."
