Chapter 12
1. White School
The school set off firecrackers to celebrate.
[Jiang Lei: We finally won a big battle.] Why do you guys look unhappy?
Jiang Fengyun: What's there to be happy about? There's a lot of homework. Hurry up and finish it.
Jiang Lei: " Zheng Dongchen, everyone is rushing their homework. Why aren't you rushing it?"
Zheng Dongchen: " I've already finished it. Isn't this my homework?"
Jiang Lei: The teacher didn't even teach you. How did you learn it?
Xie Yuhan replied,[Self-study. But I was born stupid, so I can't learn.]
Zheng Dongchen: " Self-study isn't difficult. If you don't understand, you can ask the teacher."
"Why don't you teach me and I'll learn from you?"
Zheng Dongchen replied," Sure. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me anytime."
Jiang Lei: " I'm not talking to you anymore. I have to finish my homework early so that I can attend Zhenhua's product launch tomorrow."
Xie Yuhan said,"I'm going too. I'll do my homework first."
2 Zhenhua Factory White
Colorful flags were waving, and rows of suits and tunic suits were placed at the product launch.
Mass 1: Wow, how good is this? This is all made by these machines. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it.
Mass 2: Yes, look at the stitches. They are so even. We can't do it by hand.
Liu Shiyun: Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first batch of products produced by our bedding and clothing factory. It is also the first batch of clothing produced by our Guang 'an machine. Everyone can look at it and choose whatever you want.
Jiang Fengyun: " Wang Guowei, if you want to buy it, then buy it. Why are you trying it on? Are you here to try on clothes?"
Wang Guowei: " This suit is well made. This is a Chinese tunic suit. Not bad."
Jiang Lei: The clothes made by machines are fast and good. Isn't it much better than manual work?
Zheng Dongchen: " General Manager Liu, why don't we work for you during the holidays and learn how to make clothes?"
Liu Shiyun: Sure, welcome.
3. The Police Station
Zheng Xiaohong walked into the office in Zhenhua clothes.
Captain Liu: Director, Zhenhua's Chinese tunic suit fits you very well.
Zheng Xiaohong: " You don't say. They really did it." Xianren, where do you think we should start?
Captain Liu: Scarface raised so many bandits. If he didn't plant crops, where would the food come from? If we can cut off their food supply and not attack them, they will disperse on their own.
[Zheng Xiaohong: Where would Scarface hide his food?] There would definitely be some clues.
Captain Liu: " I heard that Scarface used to be a soldier. He's very alert. There were a few times when we sent people up the mountain to suppress bandits, but we didn't even see him." One of Dong Chen's classmates had been captured by bandits, but Scarface had let him go. Could he have some clues?
Zheng Xiaohong: The last time Scarface kidnapped a student at school, two policemen died for no reason. How's the investigation going? Has the pension been paid?
Captain Liu: " There's no progress in the case. It's a headless case. The family of the deceased has been paid 12 yuan."
Zheng Xiaohong: " Life is too worthless. Arrange for us to visit the family members of the deceased."
4. East Morning, Home Late
Zheng Xiaohong tidied his clothes and prepared to go out.
Zheng Xiaohong: " Wife, go and get two of them. I'll go and visit the family of the deceased policeman."
Mother Zheng: For the sake of public affairs, you still have to walk into Tao's pocket?
Zheng Xiaohong: The bureau only gives them
Mrs. Zheng: " That's not right. Didn't you take the five dollars?"
Zheng Xiaohong: What did you say? When did I take it?
Mrs. Zheng: " I haven't seen it for a few days. I thought you took it, so I didn't ask."
Grandma said," The ocean is not a banknote. The mouse can't be touched. You should look for it more. Maybe you'll find it."
Mrs. Zheng: Mom, we've already looked for the money.
Grandma: No, rats can eat oceans.
Zheng Xiaohong: " I got it. Don't look for it. Dongjiao, go and get your brother."
Grandma: Maybe Dongchen didn't take it. Don't make a fuss.
Zheng Xiaohong: " Mom, I still don't know him. If there's anything, he'll act first and report it later."
5. Living room night
Zheng Dongjiao,"Daddy, brother is here."
Zheng Xiaohong: (Turning the wooden stick) You've gained some skill. Take it out.
Zheng Dongchen: " What do you mean take it out? I'm single."
Zheng Xiaohong,[Doesn't that mean that I'm still going to ask you for a wife?]
Zheng Dongchen: Forget it. I'm still studying. I don't need it.
Zheng Xiaohong: (Extending five fingers) Is that clear?
Zheng Dongchen,"That's too little. I want ten."
Zheng Xiaohong: " You gave me all five. You're so generous." Was it because he was overflowing with sympathy?
Zheng Dongchen: " I've given them all. I think it's worth it."
Grandma: What are you talking about?
Zheng Xiaohong: " Your grandson said that he gave five yuan to his classmate Zheng Xiaofan, who was kidnapped by bandits."
Mrs. Zheng: Five dollars to buy five loads of grain, enough for our family to eat for a year. Son, are you hot-headed?
Zheng Xiaohong: " He's not hot-headed. We're the ones who have a fever."
Grandma: Zheng Xiaofan's family was either dead or injured. His home was gone. It was miserable enough to be harmed by the bandits.
Mother Zheng: Mom, what are you doing?
Grandma: It's right to help your classmate.
Night at the Bandit Stronghold
Scarface asked,"Fourth Brother, what's the situation at the foot of the mountain?"
He Laosi: It's very peaceful at the foot of the mountain.
Scarface asked,"What about the county?"
He Laosi: There was no major turmoil in the county.
Scarface asked,"Did the garrison and the police make any moves?"
He Laosi: No. "However, Mr. Wang was beaten up by a few people in police uniforms at Fragrance Tower. I asked him and he said that they were people from our mountain.
Scarface thought,"Our people didn't go down the mountain, why would they hit him?" Could it be that he made some enemies and blamed it on us? Tell me, if it's not from our mountain, then who is it? How dare he?
He Laosi: " If it's not our people, who is targeting him? Should we send someone to inform Head Guard Wang and hide for a while?"
Scarface replied,"Head Guard Wang is an official. Hiding is not a solution."
He Laosi,"Should we send someone to protect him in secret?"
Scarface: " No need. It's best to dig out the people who impersonated us. They must have some information about us. Otherwise, even Head Guard Wang won't be able to figure it out. If we don't dig them out, it'll be a hidden danger."
7. East Morning, Home Late
Zheng Xiaohong,[You gave the money to your classmate privately. That's not good, right?]
Zheng Dongchen: " If I ask you for it face to face, will you give it to me?"
Zheng Xiaohong: " Not necessarily, at least not that much."
Zheng Dongchen,"You're honest."
Zheng Xiaohong: " It's the truth and not honesty. I'll make it clear that there won't be a next time. Listen to me."
Zheng Dongchen: " There won't be a next time. I hope there won't be a next time in my life."
Zheng Xiaohong: " Forget it. Get your classmate Zheng Xiaofan here. I have something to ask him."
Zheng Dongchen: " Where can I find him? He left a long time ago. I don't know where he went." I know you want to ask where Scarface hid his food.
Zheng Xiaohong: How did you know that I was going to ask where the bandits hid the grain?
Zheng Dongchen: " No one knows a father better than his son. Let me tell you. Five dollars for information. I'm at a disadvantage." Such important information was not worth it.
Zheng Xiaohong: The spanking agreement, how about it?
Zheng Dongchen: " What agreement? Unequal? You're always spanking me." It didn't matter. Anyway, this information was much more important than a spanking.
Zheng Xiaohong: " You said spanking is an unfair agreement. Then let's abolish it. Isn't that all?"
Zheng Dongchen: It's a deal. Dad, why don't you think about where Scarface hid the food for safety?
Zheng Xiaohong,[I'm not Scarface. How would I know?]
Zheng Dongchen: " You've left out one person, Head Guard Wang. How could Head Guard Wang be safe?" Think about it, Head Guard Wang is a local, an official, and has a good relationship with the government. No one would suspect him if he hid it anywhere.
Zheng Xiaohong: Yes, we should have thought of it earlier.
Zheng Dongchen said,"You're too late." However, it was not too late.
Zheng Xiaohong,"You dare to taunt me?" Watch how I deal with you.
Zheng Dongchen said,"A gentleman uses his mouth, not his hands."
Zheng Xiaohong: I am not a gentleman.
8 nights in the village
Scarface and the other bandits were having a meeting in the hall.
Scarface asked,"How much food do we have left with Head Guard Wang?"
[Swine Fever: 400 - 500 catties, do you want to go up the mountain first?] I'm worried that it's not safe.
Scarface: " No rush. Head Guard Wang is the landlord. His family still has a few hundred catties of grain. No one can do anything to him. If we act rashly and are targeted, we will be exposed."
[Swine Fever: I need to eat on the mountain, so I can't leave it with him for long.]
Scarface: Transport in batches, narrow down the target.
Swine Fever: Understood, I will be careful.
Scar Face: " Fourth Brother, send someone to inform the Half Fairy and the teahouse to pay close attention to the situation at the police station and the garrison. If there is any movement, report to the mountain in time."
He Laosi: " Of course, Big Brother. What else is there to worry about?"
Scarface: " The incident in Youfang Village was so serious a while ago, but the police station didn't take any action. It's not right. Zheng Xiaohong was born in the same family, and he's not a pushover. He didn't move, which means he's looking for an opportunity to tell his brothers at the foot of the mountain to wipe their eyes."
He Laosi: " Big Brother, I'll go down the mountain immediately and inform the brothers to prepare for the battle."
Scarface said,[Tell the brothers to restrain themselves. If something happens, we can't do anything. We can't blame big brother.]
9. East Morning Home Evening
Zheng Dongchen was scalding his feet.
Zheng Dongchen: Dad, what are your plans?
Zheng Xiaohong said,"I'll send someone to Youfang Village tomorrow and seal off all the food of Mr. Wang."
Zheng Dongchen: " Dad, I advise you not to do that. First of all, what evidence do you have to say that the food is from bandits? Will Head Guard Wang admit it?"
Zheng Xiaohong: " Where did the evidence come from? I can't just watch helplessly as Head Guard Wang colludes with the bandits. I can't do anything about it."
Zheng Dongchen said," Snakes are not easy to fight in the grass. We can use a trick to alert the snake and let it come out. Then, it will be easier to fight."
[Zheng Xiaohong: Do you have any good ideas?]
Zheng Dongchen whispered in Zheng Xiaohong's ear.
Zheng Xiaohong: Yes, great minds think alike. No, father and son see the same thing.
10 Wharf Teahouse White
Gan Wu brought two policemen into the teahouse.
[Gan Wu: Shopkeeper, come here, come here.]
Manager: What can I do for you, Squad Leader Gan?
[Gan Wu: Go get two dishes. We're going to drink here?]
Manager: " Squad Leader Gan, you haven't been here for a long time. What made you so happy to come to my teahouse today?"
Gan Wu: " Go, go, go. Hurry up. We still have to go out later."
Shopkeeper: Yes, yes.
[Gan Wu: We brothers just received some money. Everyone is happy.]
Manager: " The police station hasn't issued any money for a long time. What day is it today? Why are you giving out money for no reason?"
" What do you know?" Gan Wu said." I brought some people to the countryside to investigate a few days ago and found the place where the scar-faced bandits hid their food. I came back to report to the director. The director was so happy that he gave out a lot of money to buy wine for his brothers."
Shopkeeper: A place where bandits hide food? You, Squad Leader Gan, know where Scarface hid his food? Squad Leader Gan, you've done a great job. You deserve to drink and celebrate.
[Gan Wu: What do you know? Why are you still standing here? Why aren't you preparing the dishes?]
Shopkeeper: Yes, I will prepare it immediately.
Gan Wu was drinking with a few policemen and was already a little drunk.
Policeman 1:" Do you think the police are so generous this time? They gave us so much money?"
Policeman 2:" We're going to collect the food from the bandit Scarface. There's a lot of money. This is nothing."
Policeman 1:" Class monitor, what do you think the chief will reward us for completing this mission?"
[Gan Wu: You don't know, do you? Scarface hid the grain in the house of a landlord surnamed Wang.]
The shopkeeper secretly remembered the conversation between Gan Wu and the others.
11 Police Station Night
Zheng Xiaohong and Captain Liu were discussing how to suppress the bandits.
Zheng Xiaohong: Has the news spread?
Captain Liu said," I've spread the news. Gan Wu came back to report that the waiter of the dock teahouse left the city through the North Gate in the afternoon. Gan Wu deliberately asked him,'Isn't he a waiter of the teahouse? Why is he going back to the countryside?' The waiter stammered that someone at home was sick and had to go back to visit. They should be on the mountain by now.
Zheng Xiaohong,"If the bandits want to transport grain to the mountain, when is the fastest time?"
Captain Liu said," If the scar-faced bandit wants to transport the grain to the mountain, the earliest he can do it is tonight. They don't dare to do it in the daytime." Chief, how did you know that the teahouse was the contact point of the bandits?
Zheng Xiaohong: " Isn't that easy? There are many people coming and going in the teahouse. It's a well-informed place. It's the best place to collect information. It's not easy to attract people's attention." Don't ask anymore. Arrange the manpower and set off at night. We'll welcome them in advance.
Night on the mountain road
A group of unclothed policemen headed towards Huaying Mountain.
Captain Liu said,"Chief, we'll be going up the mountain if we keep walking."
Zheng Xiaohong,"Tell the brothers to lie in ambush by the roadside and not make a sound."
Captain Liu: "Yes.(To the police officers around you) Everyone, don't make a sound and rest here."
Zheng Xiaohong: (To the young policeman) Why are you trembling? Are you afraid?
Little policeman: I'm not afraid, I'm just a little nervous?
Zheng Xiaohong said," Don't be nervous. Bandits are also humans. You can follow me later and deal with a few bandits effortlessly."
Captain Liu: The bandits 'grain convoy is already coming our way.
[Zheng Xiaohong: Tell the brothers to light the torches and shout at the bandits.]
Policeman: Brothers, we were sent by the big brother on the mountain to pick you up.
Captain Liu: " Brothers, is there any situation on your side?"
Bandit: " Nothing happened. Why did you come to pick us up so early?"
Captain Liu: " It hasn't been peaceful recently. I'm worried about you."
The bandit on the other side said,"Thank you, brothers, and thank you, big brother. Everything is fine."
As they approached the convoy escorting the food, the police suddenly shouted,""Surrender your weapons and we won't kill you." The bandits obediently put down their guns.
Zheng Xiaohong: " Take the bandits and food. We'll go back to the county town."
The bandit leader said," I knew it. We just shipped the food out. Why did Big Brother send someone to pick us up? So you're the police and waiting for us."
Night at the Mountain Village
The scar-faced bandit was smoking.
Spray of Flowers: 'Boss, if you smoke too much at night, you won't be able to sleep.'
Scarface,[Have the brothers who are transporting the grain set off?]
Spray of Flowers,[They've already left the mountain before it's dark. They're probably rushing back with food.]
Scarface said," I still feel uneasy. Is there a problem somewhere? Chief of Staff, send a team down the mountain to pick them up immediately."
Swine Fever: Commander, we have already sent a team to receive them according to the previous rules. They should have already contacted them by now.
Scarface said,"Send another team to receive them." I was worried. Why did such a piece of information suddenly come from the foot of the mountain? How did they get such a confidential information?
Spray of Flowers wondered if the commander was being too careful.
Scarface: " What's the problem? I can't figure it out at the moment. The person I sent to receive them must be quick. I'm worried that something will happen."
Swine Fever: Yes, Commander. I'll immediately bring people to meet him personally.
On the 14th Avenue
The police escorted the bandits back to the county town.
Captain Liu: " Director, you're really smart. I'm impressed."
Zheng Xiaohong: " Also, tell the brothers to speed up. Don't light the torches now. After passing the red shop in front, everyone will light the torches. The bandits won't dare to chase after them even if they go down the mountain."
Captain Liu: " Brothers, hurry up. We can light the torches in front and swagger back."
Night at the Mountain Village
Swine Fever hurriedly ran to the hall.
Swine Fever: Commander, we didn't receive the brothers who transported the grain. The brothers who received us at the front didn't see the brothers who transported the grain either.
Scarface asked,"Are you saying that neither of you have received the brothers who transported the grain?"
Swine Fever: Yes, could it be that they took another route back to the village?
Scarface thought," Impossible. They knew that there were people waiting for them along the way. They couldn't have changed their route at the last minute."
Swine Fever: " That's strange. The first batch of brothers who came to pick them up wasn't far away from them. Why didn't they find them?"
Scarface thought, If they suddenly changed their route and didn't let the brothers behind them pick them up, the only plausible reason would be that they had already encountered danger or a vicious attack. Who has the ability to make my 100 people disappear into thin air? Chief of Staff, bring your men and continue to search for them. If there's a situation, immediately rescue them.
Guang 'an Alliance
The members of the Alliance were in a meeting.
Mr. Zhou: "Let's applaud the successful expulsion of Principal Wang Xiankui." (Everyone applauds) The Nanchong Alliance has asked us to continue our efforts and strive for our members to become the principal of Guang 'an County High School. Everyone, please make your nomination first.
Member 1: I have nominated Teacher Zhou Mingchuan as the principal.
Chen Guoying: I agree.
Member 2: I have no objections. However, I also want to point out that it's good to have our Alliance as the principal, but we must also see that Guang 'an County has four forces. First, there are external forces led by the county head. We must not let our guard down. County Head Jiang Zhongxiong has absolute power over the appointment of the principal. Second, there are local forces led by Finance Director Wang Jin. Third, there are armed forces led by Police Director Zheng Xiaohong. Fourth, our Alliance is the weakest among the four forces. If we don't join forces with them, it'll be very difficult for us to win the position of principal.
Chen Guoying: " If we ally with County Chief Jiang, he might not listen to us. We won't give him any benefits if we ally with Wang Jin. Besides, Wang Xiankui is his man. We just got rid of him. He won't cooperate with us. Although Zheng Xiaohong is a local power, he keeps a distance from both Jiang and Wang. He doesn't have any friendship with us." We don't have the confidence to ally with any of them.
Zhou Mingchuan: " I don't think we have much chance either, but we have to fight for it. Otherwise, our alliance will always be fighting alone."
County Head's Office During the Day
County Chief Jiang, Wang Jin, and Director Chen of the Education Bureau were in a meeting.
County Chief Jiang: " Our meeting today is mainly to discuss the candidate for the principal of the county high school. Secretary Chen, can you ask the police station why Chief Zheng hasn't arrived yet?"
Secretary Chen: " The police station said that Bureau Chief Zheng took all the police to eliminate the bandits last night and didn't come back."
County Head Jiang: " Why didn't I know about such a big operation?" If we send all the police out to suppress the bandits, won't the county be empty? If the bandits take advantage of the situation to enter the city, won't we all become captives?
"Yes, yes." Bureau Chief Zheng was too arrogant.
The sound of firecrackers rang out on the street.
County Head Jiang: " What's going on? Could it be that the bandits took advantage of the emptiness of the county town to enter the city and sent people out to see if they were shooting or setting off firecrackers?"
Secretary Chen: " It's the people setting off firecrackers. Bureau Chief Zheng is escorting more than 100 bandits and a lot of food back to the county. The people in the county are happily setting off firecrackers to celebrate."
County Chief Jiang: " I, it's a good thing. It's a great thing. Bureau Chief Zheng has successfully exterminated the bandits. We have to show our gratitude. Today's meeting has been moved to the police station. We'll rush to the police station now."
Secretary Chen: So, we're going to discuss the appointment of the principal today?
County Head Jiang: Today's meeting will be changed to a celebration meeting.
Police Station Bai
The police escorted more than 100 bandits back to the police station. Zheng Xiaohong watched as the bandits walked past him one by one.
Gan Wu: " Chief, that's really satisfying. I didn't expect us to capture so many bandits at once without even using a shot."
Zheng Xiaohong: " What's there to be happy about? There are still many bandits on Huaying Mountain."
Gan Wu: " We should catch a little less, Chief. You're really something."
Policeman 1:" Squad leader, there aren't enough cells. Some bandits are fighting in the cells."
[Gan Wu: Tie up all the fighting bandits. Do you want to build high-rise buildings for them?]
Captain Liu: Chief, County Chief Jiang is going to the police station to celebrate our victory.
Zheng Xiaohong: What's there to celebrate?
Captain Liu said," The county head said that this is the first time in many years that the Guang 'an Police Station has achieved such a great success in suppressing bandits. It's worth celebrating." Bureau Chief, you should prepare to welcome the county head.
Garrison in the Morning
The blind bear yawned as he walked into the office.
The blind bear was speechless.
Soldier: Captain, what can I do for you?
Blind Bear: What's going on on Guang 'an Street again? I can't sleep early in the morning.
Soldier: " Captain, we've sent someone to check. They said that the police station won a great victory last night. The citizens are setting off firecrackers to celebrate."
Blind Bear: " Those few lousy guns at the police station, and you still dare to suppress bandits? What the hell are you asking about?"
Soldier: " Captain, it's true. The soldiers we sent to understand the situation came back and said that the police station's prison cells were full of bandits."
Blind Bear: " I've underestimated Zheng Xiaohong. Isn't he a freeloader? Did you find out how they caught the bandits?" How were the casualties on both sides?
Soldier: Casualties? There were no casualties.
Blind Bear: " You pig brain, how can there be no casualties in war?"
Soldier: I don't think I've heard of any casualties.
Blind Bear: Zheng, I underestimated you. Inform the brothers that since they have made such a great contribution, we will also send them a generous gift to join in the fun.
The Police Station
Zheng Xiaohong and the other policemen lined up to wait for the arrival of County Chief Jiang. County Chief Jiang, the Financial Bureau Chief Wang Jin, and the others came to the police station.
Zheng Xiaohong: " County Chief Jiang, you're too polite. Brothers, County Chief Jiang heard the news of your success in suppressing the bandits and took time out of his busy schedule to greet everyone. He invited County Chief Jiang to speak to everyone. Everyone, welcome."
County Chief Jiang: " Bureau Chief Zheng, congratulations on your success in suppressing the bandits. My police brothers, you've worked hard."
Policeman 1:(in a low voice) Should I pay everyone? I haven't slept all night, and I'm already sleepy.
Policeman 2:" The county head is good. He just crawled out of his wife's bed and is still asleep. He's using us to entertain himself early in the morning. I'm cold and hungry."
County Chief Jiang: " Police brothers, you've worked hard. In order to commend your heroic actions in suppressing the bandits, our county government is prepared to give each of you two yuan. What do you think?"
"Alright, alright."
Wang Jin: (An official from the Finance Bureau whispers in Wang Jin's ear) Wang Jin hurriedly gestured to County Chief Jiang.
County Chief Jiang: " Police brothers, you can bring Dayang home in a while and then have a good sleep." Let's not delay everyone.
Blind Bear: (Leading people into the venue, clapping) Well said, well said. County Chief Jiang, can the soldiers and I bring Dayang home and have a good sleep later?
County Chief Jiang: " Captain Xiong, can you change your eccentric character and speak in a human language?" Our celebration party has nothing to do with you, Captain Xiong.
Captain Xiong: " County Chief Jiang, don't be so polite. We were busy defending the county last night."
Wang Jin: " County Chief Jiang, I haven't had the time to report to you. Captain Xiong sent someone to confiscate the guns of our tax police early in the morning and sent troops to collect taxes at the four city gates."
County Head Jiang: " Captain Xiong, what's wrong with you?"
Captain Xiong: " Nothing happened. Our soldiers don't have food to eat. They're begging for food from you."
