Chapter 757: 750 The 750 desperate bandits

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's interview triggered a massive reaction in Sichuan.

Every household was discussing it.

……

In Qionglai City,

at a certain auto repair shop,

"This Mr. Guan is blowing things way out of proportion! Overtake the US in 30 years? Our factory assembly lines still rely on manual labor!" Old Zhang slammed his enamel mug onto the low table.

Old Wang sighed while repairing a bicycle, "The factory's efficiency gets worse by the day; what do we have to compare with them?"

Old Li squatted nearby, smoking a sullen cigarette: "But what he said makes some sense. In the past, we couldn't even make televisions, and now we slowly have our own brands. Maybe we really can make it through?"

"But the US planes and cannons are so powerful……" Old Zhang interjected, his voice full of worry.

……

In Jiangyou City, at a state-run factory duty room,

Old Li stared at the TV rebroadcast: "Wrestling with the US in thirty years? I think it's doubtful! We still have to import our aircraft engines."

A young security guard rubbed his hands: "But the problems he mentioned about the US shouldn't be fake."

Old Li said gloomily: "Let's just survive the wave of layoffs first."

……

In Chengdu, at the home of a retired cadre,

"Mr. Guan, this man has guts!" Old Chen felt greatly comforted after watching the TV, "Back in the day when we were building the country, we endured such harsh conditions and made it through; now it's even less of a problem."

His wife sighed: "I think it's difficult…… The US is too strong; even the old Soviet big brother was worn down to death by them."

Old Chen said firmly: "We weren't afraid during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, so why would we be afraid of them now? As long as the whole country is of one mind, what difficulty can't we overcome!"

……

The next day,

Jinjiang Hotel, restaurant.

The morning light spilled into the restaurant through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Jinjiang Hotel.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Sister Ruan Mei sat at a table, eating breakfast.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu picked up a celadon teacup and took a light sip of Pu'er tea.

Sister Ruan Mei stirred the Long Chaoshou (spicy wontons) in her bowl with a silver spoon; the aroma of the floating red chili oil made her appetite soar.

Right, no spice!

On the dining table, a copy of the "Sichuan Daily" was spread out, the front-page headline particularly eye-catching—"Interview with Hong Kong's Richest Man Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu Sparks Heated Discussion, Talks About the Motherland's Future."

And Young Master Guan sat nearby, wolfing down a piece of dessert that looked like bouncy jelly, while Wu Lianqian wiped his mouth.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at the newspaper, which detailed the brilliant viewpoints from Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's interview yesterday, starting from his optimism about the domestic economic future.

Not long after,

Tap, tap, tap~~~~~

The tourism department leader walked over quickly with his secretary.

"Mr. Guan, are you really leaving tomorrow?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded: "Yes."

Since he couldn't go anywhere, he might as well return to Hong Kong; he had already finished his business in Sichuan for now anyway.

The tourism leader still wanted to persuade him: "Mr. Guan, would you like to stay a few more days? We still have the Leshan Giant Buddha, Mount Emei, Jiuzhaigou, and other tourist attractions……"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, there are still urgent matters on the Hong Kong Island side, and I've been out for almost a week."

The tourism leader felt a wave of apology.

He knew that the urgent matter Mr. Guan mentioned was definitely just an excuse.

Originally, Mr. Guan had planned to spot-check seven or eight places, one day for each, meaning a planned stay of seven or eight days.

Why return to Hong Kong now?

Isn't it because he couldn't travel?

Therefore, those bandits really deserve to die!!

While expressing his apologies to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, the tourism leader thought viciously inside:

"Investigate!"

"Must investigate ruthlessly!"

He discussed the government farewell banquet that evening with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu again, then walked quickly out of the Jinjiang Hotel.

That afternoon, the entire province's public security officers and armed police were mobilized on a large scale to search for clues.

……

……

At this time, on Fang Qihong's side,

Three Beijing Jeeps ground over the muddy mountain roads after the rain, the chassis constantly rising and falling, bumping incessantly, shaking Fang Qihong and the others in the cabin until their butts felt numb.

Fang Qihong looked at the mountain scenery outside, feeling it was very beautiful; the magnificent mountains were rolling and undulating, lush and green—a sight he hadn't seen in over 20 years in Hong Kong.

"Engineer Fang, Engineer Chen, ahead is the territory of the Great Village!"

The driver steered hard to avoid a rut filled with muddy water and said to Fang Qihong.

Soon,

the cars entered the village.

"This village encompasses 8 surrounding brigades, and there are over 800 primary school students……"

"I often come to this village; usually, the village chief Li Laosi always says the village school is too dilapidated, it's a dangerous building, it leaks whenever it rains, and it breaks whenever it's repaired……"

As soon as the three Jeeps entered the village, they attracted the villagers to watch.

"Wow~~ such good-looking cars!"

"Wow~~"

"Where are they from?"

After the driver got out of the car, he shouted: "Li Laosi, come out quickly, the people from Hong Kong are here to do a project quality spot-check……"

Whoosh~~~~

Suddenly, many villagers ran out.

"The bosses from Hong Kong are here?"

"Did that Mr. Guan come?"

Villagers ran over one by one, filled with excitement, anticipation, and respect.

Village chief Li Laosi also ran out of his house at high speed, the sleeves of his dark blue dacron shirt rolled up unevenly.

"They're here, they're here!"

"We've been waiting for you!"

"This is Engineer Fang, leading the team this time; Mr. Guan said he was worried about the quality of the Five-Star Primary School, so he sent them over for a spot-check."

"The quality of the Five-Star Primary School is still poor?"

The villagers were shocked and speechless.

"It's not poor anymore, it's not poor!"

"That's right, the quality is simply too good."

Li Laosi shook Fang Qihong's hand directly, moved to tears.

"Our old school, this rain yesterday turned the mud floor of the old classroom into a rotten paste; the kids are stepping on bricks to attend class!"

"Look, look at that new school next to it, three stories high, under the sun, it's very beautiful; from now on, the kids can finally have a good place to study!"

Fang Qihong looked over; 200 meters away, the new Five-Star Primary School was built on the edge of the village, and next to it was a one-story tile house with "Primary School" written on it.

The new Five-Star Primary School was three stories high, with snow-white lime walls, bright windows shining in the sun, and brand-new stairs and railings, exuding vitality.

It stood out like a crane in a flock of chickens in the whole village, not to mention the broken primary school next to it.

"Let's go, let's take a look……"

The crowd followed Li Laosi towards the school.

The villagers also followed in droves; villagers who were working outside saw the commotion here and also ran over quickly to watch the fun.

Fang Qihong and the others arrived downstairs at the new Five-Star Primary School,

but their eyes couldn't help but look at the old school next to it.

The tile house of the old classroom was dilapidated and dark, with the wall plaster peeling off.

Fang Qihong and the others walked in and found that rainwater had already dripped into the house, forming muddy puddles on the ground.

Fang Qihong and the others walked into the old classroom, looking at the broken roof reflected in the puddles and the children's mud-stained pant legs,

this environment,

suddenly struck Fang Qihong and the others hard in their hearts.

"Hello, hello~~~"

"I am the teacher here, my surname is Chen……"

The teacher giving the lesson was middle-aged, tall, dressed simply, with messy hair, but his eyes were bright and clear.

Fang Qihong and the others were full of respect and shook hands with him one by one.

The teacher turned back and said to the students: "Students, the uncles and aunts from Hong Kong have come to help us check the new school! It is precisely because of their help that we have the opportunity to move into a bright new classroom; everyone, tell me, what should we do?"

The teacher raised his voice, his eyes shining.

"Thank you, uncles and aunts!"

Not knowing who started it, the children shouted. A ten-year-old girl student blushed, clutching her hem, her voice shy and clear; the mischievous boy students pulled their throats and shouted. The little girl in the front row with pigtails, her pant legs still dripping with water, looked up and repeated her thanks……

Innocent, cute……

Fang Qihong and the others looked at this scene, their noses suddenly sour.

Originally, they thought the boss was making trouble for nothing by donating money to build schools from so far away, but this scene before them……

If there were no new school, these children would still have to struggle for knowledge in such an environment.

At this moment, Fang Qihong and the others truly felt the important significance of building the school.

Fang Qihong couldn't sit still anymore.

"Let's go!"

"We will spot-check immediately, and after the spot-check is qualified, we will move over to attend school immediately!"

When the spot-check team heard this, they suddenly woke up.

"Right!"

"Measure quickly!"

They couldn't sit still and quickly left the classroom.

On the way,

"By the way, village chief, since the school is so broken, why not let the children go to the new primary school building first?"

Village chief: "This, I heard that your Five-Star Group requires that it must be qualified after a spot-check before moving over, so we didn't dare to move over. We are already very grateful that you can come here to build the school; we naturally have to obey what you say."

Hearing this, Fang Qihong didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy.

A bit sour.

He looked at the old primary school behind, the walls were cracked, it was truly a dangerous building.

If it collapsed, this……

"Let's go! We'll speed up!"

Immediately after, everyone started working, spot-checking cement strength, checking steel specifications, and checking whether the building structure was stable.

The village chief and the villagers watched from the side, their eyes full of gratitude.

And Fang Qihong also ran to the village committee, which had the only telephone in the village, and made a call to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, telling him about the situation here.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "There's such a thing?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was a bit stunned; he had never thought of this kind of problem.

Fang Qihong said: "Other villages in Sichuan probably have this problem too; I think we should issue a notice to let the students move over first……"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded: "Makes sense, I will tell the education department to let them issue a notice……"

After more than an hour, the spot-check ended.

All qualified!

Fang Qihong wiped the sweat from his forehead, couldn't care about drinking the water handed over by the village chief, and said to the village chief and the villagers:

"The new school has been checked, the quality is no problem……"

"Move the children's classrooms over first."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole village cheered.

"Right, right, right~~~"

Soon, the village started to mobilize and began to move things.

It was bustling with activity.

Everyone had a smile on their face.

Soon, the children walked into their new school; the white walls and gray tiles were bright under the sun, the glass windows in the corridor reflected the blue sky, and the stair railings were painted shiny and smooth.

The primary school students were like little cats that had just entered the city, each pursing their lips, clutching their hems, not daring to step hard, for fear that the mud on their pant legs would dirty the floor.

Fang Qihong and the others looked at the children's excited faces, remembered the broken roof reflected in the puddles in the old classroom, and at this moment, felt their hearts filled with achievement.

Not long after, village chief Li Laosi brought several villagers over, holding a large basket of things, and said with a smile:

"Engineer Fang, the fellow villagers don't have anything good, these are sweet potatoes grown at home, dried pumpkin, and wild walnuts picked from the mountains, all are our heart, thank Mr. Guan, and thank you all for coming from so far away, you've worked hard……"

The villagers said one word after another,

"That's right, Engineer Fang, you should taste more, these are all clean things!"

"Thanks to you, the children's new school can be more secure!"

Fang Qihong and the others looked at these simple faces and the basket full of local specialties, and quickly declined; they could see that this village was really poor, and they were embarrassed to take them……

……

……

1 hour later,

Fang Qihong ate the chicken and pork rice gathered by the villagers in the village, sat in the car, and under the farewell of the villagers and children, left this village and headed to the next place.

Along the way,

the atmosphere was silent.

However, just after driving more than 40 kilometers, they entered the Daxiangling section of National Highway 108.

Suddenly……

"Stop the car!"

"Robbery!"

"Get out of the car obediently~~~"

Suddenly,

5 burly masked men jumped out from the bushes under the road ridge, their gloved hands holding guns, basically all homemade guns, the dark muzzles pointing directly at the windshield.

The masked leader knocked on the car window with a steel pipe, and spiderweb-like cracks suddenly burst out on the glass.

Fang Qihong: "…………"

Other engineers: "…………"

This scene was very "Hong Kong style."

However, no one had robbed in Hong Kong for more than half a year.

Inside the three Jeeps, each Jeep had 1 armed police officer, the kind with a gun.

At this moment,

these 3 armed police officers were so excited their souls were flying.

Merit!

It grew legs and delivered itself to the door!

"Big brothers, let's talk nicely, the money is all in the bag!"

Armed police officer Xiao Zhang got out of the car tremblingly, holding up the canvas bag containing things.

The masked man grabbed the bag, pulled open the zipper, grabbed a few bills, and cursed: "Just this much? Hand over the car keys!"

The other three cars also got out of the car with things, blocking the guns with the things.

Bandits: "???"

They didn't react at first; they just felt strange, why were these three cars so obedient and well-behaved?

Just at this moment, Xiao Liu in the back suddenly roared,

"Do it!!"

Bang~~~ bang~~~ bang~~~

Three consecutive shots,

the two bandits rushing at the front clutched their stomachs and chests and fell to the ground, blood instantly staining the withered leaves red.

"We are from the armed police force, we've been waiting for you for a long time!"

When the bandits heard this, their souls were scared out of their bodies.

Damn, they offended the King of Hell.

"Not good!"

"Run!"

The remaining three bandits turned around and drilled into the dense forest.

Psychological warfare, success!

Xiao Zhang raised his hand and fired a shot, the bullet hit the leader's back, the man staggered and fell into the mud.

The other two bandits drilled into the mountains and ran away.

The 3 armed police officers didn't dare to chase, fearing a counterattack that would hurt Fang Qihong and the others.

Xiao Zhang and the others started tying them up one by one.

Xiao Liu squatted down and pulled off the leader's mask—it was a bald middle-aged man.

"Tie them up and send them to the police station."

Xiao Zhang turned to Fang Qihong, "Engineer Fang, you were frightened."

Fang Qihong smiled: "It's okay, Hong Kong was also very chaotic before, often with bandits appearing to rob gold shops and kidnap tycoons……"

Xiao Zhang and the others: "Ah?"

Giving them, the simple ones, a little bit of shock!

Isn't Hong Kong very prosperous and safe?

Three bandits: "?!!!"

Hearing this, they turned their heads sharply, eyes wide, looking at Fang Qihong and the others.

What the hell, this group of people are actually Hong Kongers?

Damn it!

Good news: I met a big fat sheep that I can extort tens of millions or hundreds of millions from.

Bad news: I'm damn caught! ===== CHAPTER 758 =====
