Scholars in the courtyard

Taking advantage of the darkness, Yang Xiaotao came to the distance to find a hidden spot. The cat was inside, and Xiaowei hid in the surroundings to guard Yang Xiaotao.

Insects were buzzing all around. Yang Xiaotao sat on a log and stared at the warehouse. The fire at the door had been extinguished, and the tall silhouette was waiting quietly in the dark night.

In the middle of the night, several beams of light suddenly appeared in Yang Xiaotao's field of vision, and then he heard a messy sound.

Someone!

Yang Xiaotao looked up and soon saw a motorcade stopping in front of the warehouse.

Then two figures appeared at the door of the warehouse. There were about ten people in the convoy. One person stepped forward first. He must be familiar with the two of them. The sparks lit up, and he must be smoking.

Then the three of them smoked cigarettes and began to ask people to unload the goods from the car.

Yang Xiaotao watched the sacks being pushed into the warehouse one by one, and there was a faint smell of blood.

Fortunately, the surrounding area is empty and the wind disappears. Perhaps this is the reason why we chose to build a warehouse here.

After the team unloaded the goods, they rested for a while and then moved things out of the warehouse.

It took more than half an hour to load the car, and then the team quickly left.

The two people who were looking after the warehouse also walked into the warehouse and were ready to take a rest.

Yang Xiaotao waited for a while and saw that it was already two o'clock in the middle of the night.

Believing that the two of them had fallen asleep, they appeared around the warehouse again. Xiaowei took action and lay on the window.

Under the window, the originally neat pork had disappeared, and the bags unloaded from the truck were piled on the spot, making the pungent smell of blood even stronger.

Yang Xiaotao held back his breath and made a bag appear in the space.

Then, drop it carefully. After leaving the warehouse, take out the bag and open it for inspection.

Under the moonlight, pieces of meat fell on the ground, some as big as a fist, some as thin as a finger, and even mixed with animal offal.

Yang Xiaotao recognized that these meats were not all pork, but chicken. Other pieces of meat with different colors did not look like good meat.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao understood that this was a waste of supplies, substituting inferior goods for good ones!

No wonder the food in the steel rolling mill is getting worse and worse. These meat pieces are just minced meat. It’s strange that you can see them after cooking.

What's more, the people in the kitchen have to go through the oil and water, and the workers don't know what kind of meat they can actually eat!

Those who can complete these operations can do it so secretly. It would be impossible without the power behind it.

"I just don't know, Li Huaide, what role do you play here?"

Yang Xiaotao packed up the minced meat and put it in the bag again.

Go back to the warehouse, put the bag back in place, and leave the warehouse.

Yang Xiaotao secretly thought about what to do next.

Li Huaide is capable, ambitious, and the kind of person who holds grudges.

If you offend such people, don't even think about making up, because they will always remember the humiliation they suffered.

As long as there is a chance, I will give you a knife.

"Find someone. Kill him!"

Yang Xiaotao made up his mind, took out his bicycle, and ran to the steel rolling mill.

Professional matters should still be left to professionals.

Arriving at the steel rolling mill, Yang Xiaotao walked directly into the security department office.

By coincidence, Wang Hao is on duty today.

"Gong Yang, it's so late, what's wrong?"

Wang Hao saw Yang Xiaotao's appearance and asked.

"Director Wang, can you contact Section Chief Zhao? It's best to call Director Xu here too!"

Wang Hao was surprised. Look at the time, it's only three o'clock. At this time, would you like to wake up your superiors?

"Gong Yang, what's the matter?"

"Very important thing!"

"Uh, wait a minute."

Wang Hao no longer hesitated, ran outside the office, called two patrol officers, gave an explanation, and then returned to the office.

"Gong Yang, what's going on?"

Yang Xiaotao didn't hide anything now and told what happened in the warehouse.

Of course, he wouldn't say that he was specifically investigating. He just said that he often went back to the countryside at night and saw a motorcade coming and going when he passed there. He was curious and went to check it out.

Unexpectedly, they found someone reselling supplies, so they came to notify the security department.

Regardless of whether Wang Hao believes it or not, this is what Yang Xiaotao said.

At around four o'clock in the morning, Zhao Chuanjun, the chief of the security department, appeared in the office. When he came to the office, he saw Yang Xiaotao, brother Wang Hao and two people. He grabbed a water cup and took a sip of water, then sat on a chair.

"Tell me what's going on!"

Seeing this, Wang Hao repeated Yang Xiaotao's words.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yuanshan opened the door and walked in. He glanced at Yang Xiaotao first, and then sat next to Zhao Chuanjun.

Wang Hao drank some water and told the story again.

At this time, Section Chief Zhao asked with a frown.

"Gong Yang, are you sure those people are reselling supplies? Isn't this a normal warehouse?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded.

Taking advantage of this period of memories, he confirmed in his heart that this was Li Huaide's method of making money.

In movies and TV shows, this guy can't do anything for money. Xu Damao gave him two gold bars and became one of his own. He is definitely a greedy and lustful bastard.

Xu Yuanshan looked at Yang Xiaotao thoughtfully. After hearing what Ding Xiangjun said last time in the machine repair shop, he also wanted to investigate, but he did not expect that Yang Xiaotao would start faster.

He didn't think that Yang Xiaotao discovered it accidentally. He knew exactly who it was targeting.

"Old Zhao, how will your security department handle this?"

Zhao Chuanjun pondered for a moment. Logically speaking, as the security department of the steel rolling mill, they could handle such social matters, but it was also far-fetched.

Unless, this involves a steel rolling mill.

This is how he became famous.

Zhao Chuanjun frowned and looked at Xu Yuanshan and then at Yang Xiaotao. His intuition on the battlefield made him feel that there was a secret between the two of them, and this secret must be related to the steel rolling mill.

Otherwise, why would Yang Xiaotao leave the police station and not come to this steel rolling mill?

After figuring out the reason, Zhao Chuanjun laughed.

"You two, are you hiding something from me?"

Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Yuanshan. Seeing the silence on the other person's face, he immediately understood that Xu Yuanshan had seen through his mind.

Xu Yuanshan laughed and glanced at Wang Hao. Zhao Chuanjun immediately understood. Wang Hao also saw the clues and immediately walked outside the door to perform security.

Later, Xu Yuanshan told Zhao Chuanjun what he heard in the machine repair shop, and finally explained that Yang Xiaotao investigated the matter at his request. The reason was very simple. He did not believe the people who guarded Corey.

Zhao Chuanjun was furious after hearing this, but he couldn't do anything about it. Who let a rat droppings sneak into the security department last time?

Hearing what Xu Yuanshan said, Zhao Chuanjun immediately transferred his anger.

This kind of speculation still involves the steel rolling mill. If their security department doesn't take action, they are not revolutionary fighters.

Deep down in my heart, I was also somewhat grateful to the two of them.

If this matter is uncovered by the police, it will be their security department that will be embarrassed. When the matter gets serious, he, the section chief, will also be criticized.

"Wang Hao!"

"Section Chief."

Wang Hao pulled himself together and pushed open the door with a serious look on his face.

"I'll give you a task. Bring someone to me to investigate..."

Wang Hao ignored his fatigue and turned to leave the office.

"You two, leave the matter to our security department. No matter who it is, we will get to the bottom of it and we will never tolerate it!"

Section Chief Zhao assured him like this. Xu Yuanshan knew who he was and nodded in agreement.

"If you need any help, just ask."

"Don't be afraid of making a big fuss. If something goes wrong, the ones who should be afraid are those with evil intentions!"

"Haha, Old Xu, you are looking down on me now. We, Old Zhao, don't know what it means to be afraid on the battlefield!"

"I'll find those clowns and treat them to peanuts..."

Yang Xiaotao listened on the sidelines. Xu Yuanshan had already taken over his affairs, so he only had to wait.

After leaving the office, Yang Xiaotao and Xu Yuanshan walked together.

"You did this in a hurry, but fortunately you didn't alert the enemy!"

"Also, don't get involved in this kind of thing in the future. Just do your job now!"

Xu Yuanshan said, Yang Xiaotao nodded aside.

"Uncle Xu, I know!"

"Well, let's go back and rest."

With that said, Xu Yuanshan walked to the office, while Yang Xiaotao was riding a bicycle, looking at the white sky, without returning to the courtyard, looking in the right direction and speeding towards Yangjiazhuang.

When he arrived at Yangjiazhuang, the whole village was already noisy, and Yang Xiaotao went straight back home.

In the room, Ran Qiuye had already gotten up to prepare breakfast. He thought Yang Xiaotao would come back yesterday, but he didn't wait until midnight, but he came back early in the morning.

Mr. Yang got up early in the morning to take care of the piglets. Now the sow is eating corn mush, and the eight little black pigs are all shiny after eating. In Yang Shitou's words, it is better than what humans eat.

There is no way, there is only such a pig in the whole Yangjiazhuang, and it has eight piglets. If it is not valuable, who is more valuable?

Mr. Yang even said that the village would no longer need to hand over surplus grain to the public. The surplus grain would be used to raise pigs and provide extra meals for the children in the school.

After Yang Xiaotao heard about it, he also supported it. If the situation didn't allow it, he would have given the children a glass of milk a day.

After breakfast, Yang Xiaotao came to school and started class.

Nowadays, the courses no longer just teach biology, but sometimes also include chemistry and physics courses.

For these children, a simple starch turning into blue when exposed to iodine is a novel world.

With them, you can always find the joy of life.

For this group of children, there is no need to worry about their attitudes, because they know that learning opportunities are hard-won.

Don’t worry about being naughty or causing trouble, even the naughtiest child is still a good kid in the classroom.

Here, being a teacher is also a joy.

After the course ended on Sunday, Yang Xiaotao and Ran Qiuye returned to Sijiu City. October 1st was getting closer and closer, and they had almost prepared everything for their wedding. By then, they would have bought the sewing machine and it would be enough.

Ran Qiuye doesn't have many requirements for the things she buys. Even if she doesn't buy them, her current life makes her feel satisfied.

As long as you stay with him, everything will be fine.

After sending Ran Qiuye home and having dinner, he returned to the courtyard, tidied up, and then took out the complete works of Lu Xun and looked at it carefully.

In the middle of the night, Yang Xiaotao couldn't stop reading and wanted to read the book in one night.

But he knew this was impossible.

That kind of rapid recitation would be a blasphemy in a book full of annotations.

A good book needs to be read carefully and tasted slowly!

He reached out and took out a bookmark, which was written by Ran Qiuye.

Juanxiu's pencil calligraphy carries a girl's special tenderness, but is also full of love for books.

"You can go a day without eating, you can go a day without sleeping, and you can't go a day without reading books!"

Three vertical characters, with a blooming plum blossom drawn below.

Yang Xiaotao placed the bookmark in the book and closed it solemnly.

He feels that after reading this book, there will be unexpected gains.

After washing his face, Yang Xiaotao lay on the bed.

Outside the courtyard, Wangcai was lying in the doghouse, Xiaowei was squirming on his body, and the whole courtyard was peaceful.

While Yang Xiaotao was sleeping, outside the warehouse next to the canal, a truck quickly came to the warehouse from far away.

The driver came down and said hello to the two people guarding the warehouse, and then the three of them started loading the car.

After a while, the car started to leave again.

The warehouse door closed again.

Just as the car was leaving, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness, got on a bicycle and followed closely.

And where the black shadow appeared, another shadow continued to lie on the ground.

Steel rolling mill, security department conference room.

Section Chief Zhao was sitting in front with a cigarette in his hand, and there was no one in front of him.

At this time, Zhao Chuanjun's face was haggard, and his eyes were filled with blood.

Since he learned the news the night before yesterday, he sent his trusted personnel to monitor the warehouse.

Just at noon today, according to the information provided by Yang Xiaotao, and after multiple visits and investigations, traces of that group of people were finally found.

Then they sent out capable personnel to investigate carefully, and the news spread in the afternoon.

"Section Chief, according to the public's response, someone encountered him while going to the toilet in the middle of the night. I investigated all the way and finally found the rat's nest."

However, when the investigators came back and finished explaining the information they had found, Zhao Chuanjun and Wang Hao on the side frowned.

"Are you sure you're in that yard?"

Wang Hao opened his mouth to confirm, "Yes, it's Compound No. 66!"

The investigator also said with certainty. After hearing this, Zhao Chuanjun smoked a cigarette, lit it and put it in his mouth.

He knew something about this 66 Good Courtyard. The people living here were all locals and had taken root here before liberation.

The interpersonal relationships are complicated, and the pigeon market is even run by these people. Now it seems that these swapped meats are likely to appear in the pigeon market.

Time is running out now, and we need to act as soon as possible to catch the thieves, especially in the compound where people and snakes are mixed, and we need to strike hard.

"You take a rest first!"

"Wang Hao, go to the conference room and watch your own people. No one can leave without my order."

"Pooping and peeing will be dealt with in the courtyard. Anyone who dares to show up will be arrested by me!"

"yes!"
