Chapter 1178: The Opportunity Appears
"How did you get here, kid?" Sun Wang walked over and leaned on the car window to ask.
Wan Quan reached out and picked up a cigarette from the passenger seat, handing one to Sun Wang: "Missed you, came over to find you for a drink."
"Heh!" Sun Wang laughed, took the cigarette, and tucked it behind his ear: "Just right, I've been bored to death for a while, and I was just thinking of finding you, the rich guy, to drink a bit."
"Then what are we waiting for? Get in." Wan Quan said, then honked the horn again: "Daqiangzi, let's go, let's go drink."
Daqiangzi hesitated. Although they were all from the same village, one was at the east end and the other at the west end. They knew each other but weren't familiar; at most, they would nod when they met.
"Let's go." Sun Wang walked over and grabbed Daqiangzi, shoving him into the car.
If it were usual, Wan Quan wouldn't have called Daqiangzi, but now he had a mission to unite all righteous forces that could be united.
Especially since he saw Daqiangzi holding a kitchen knife, covered in dirt, and with injuries on his face, driven by curiosity, he had to bring Daqiangzi along.
Wan Quan drove to the town and stopped at the dog meat restaurant he and Sun Wang often visited.
As soon as the three entered, a special fragrance hit their noses.
"Fragrant!" Wan Quan shouted with a smile: "Old Bian, guests are here."
The oil-stained curtain of the back kitchen was lifted, and a young man in his twenties came out.
Wan Quan was stunned: "Second Old Bian, why is it you? Where is your dad?"
"Brother Quan, Brother Wang." Second Old Bian greeted them first, then sighed: "My dad is gone."
"Where did he go?" Sun Wang was stunned, then reacted: "When did this happen? I came to eat with Daquan last month, he looked fine, and even had two drinks with us. How could he just be gone?"
"It's just been over a week." Second Old Bian wiped the table with a rag: "That morning after eating, he said he felt a bit nauseous. None of us paid attention, thinking he hadn't eaten something right.
It was only ten minutes later, my dad went out to come to the shop, and he fell at the gate. By the time we found a car to send him to the county hospital, he was already……"
Second Old Bian shook his head slightly and didn't continue.
Wan Quan and Sun Wang sighed. As long as the two of them gathered to drink, they would almost always come to Old Bian's place to eat dog meat.
So, they were quite familiar with Old Bian, and they had even had drinks together at the end of last month. It had only been half a month, and the person was gone just like that.
"Sigh!" Wan Quan sighed: "Old Bian was such a good person, gone just like that."
"People." Sun Wang shook his head: "It's better to eat what you want to eat, drink what you want to drink, and do what you want to do. Otherwise, who knows which day, you kick your legs, close your eyes, and this life is over."
Wan Quan sat down: "Daqiangzi, don't just stare blankly, sit."
Sun Wang pulled Daqiangzi to sit down and said to Second Old Bian: "A dog meat casserole, a braised dog meat, and look to get us two side dishes."
"Okay." Second Old Bian asked: "What are you drinking?"
Sun Wang said: "Just your loose liquor, bring us a glass each."
"No loose liquor today." Wan Quan waved his hand and said generously: "Drink Jiang Xiaobai."
"Oh my." Sun Wang looked Wan Quan up and down: "Did you get rich?"
"What rich." Wan Quan said with a smile: "No matter how poor the family is, you have to eat two taels of meat for the New Year."
Sun Wang said with great emotion: "That's right, New Year's Day is coming soon, another year has passed."
Wan Quan pointed his chin at Daqiangzi: "What's going on? Look at how you're covered in dirt, your face is swollen, and just now you were holding a kitchen knife, looking like you were going to fight to the death."
"Dog-fucking Tian Bowen." Sun Wang cursed and explained the situation.
Wan Quan's heart moved: "I heard that workers who don't work for him aren't hired by other mines, right?"
"Yes." Daqiangzi said hatefully: "The engineering vehicles at Tian Bowen's mine, as long as they break, he finds various reasons to make the driver pay for repairs, and then deducts it from their wages.
The master who taught me to drive didn't work because of this. He went to other mines, but they didn't dare hire him, afraid of Tian Bowen causing trouble. After all, it's better to have one less thing than one more, and no one wants to offend Tian Bowen."
Wan Quan asked Sun Wang: "What about you? When the car breaks, do they make you pay for repairs too?"
Sun Wang laughed: "The car I drive is okay, hasn't had any major problems, and I fixed the small things myself. So, I haven't been cheated by him yet."
At this time, Second Old Bian brought the dishes up, then went to get the wine: "You guys drink slowly, I still have some work to finish."
"You go ahead." Wan Quan waved his hand, opened the Jiang Xiaobai: "Come, let the three of us have a drink first."
The three of them clinked their bottles together.
"This matter with Daqiangzi can't just be left like this." Wan Quan picked up a piece of dog meat: "And your wages, Tian Bowen, that dog-fucking guy, definitely won't give you the money easily."
Sun Wang scratched his head: "I'm also pondering how to mess with him."
Wan Quan picked up the wine bottle, looked left and right, leaned forward, and said mysteriously: "I heard that the vice mayor in charge of mining safety in the city is going to crack down and rectify private mines."
Daqiangzi's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Sun Wang patted Daqiangzi's shoulder: "You still don't know what Daquan's brother-in-law does."
Daqiangzi was stunned, and Sun Wang whispered in his ear: "Daquan's brother-in-law is the secretary to the vice mayor."
Daqiangzi was stunned, then his whole body trembled with excitement, suppressing his excitement.
"So, this is true."
"This matter was also mentioned by my brother-in-law unintentionally. He just said that the private mining and theft of rare earth mines in our city are too serious, and Vice Mayor Liu is very angry and wants to rectify it vigorously."
Saying this, Wan Quan shook his head slightly: "However, rare earth mines are a huge piece of fat. Not to mention taking a bite, even if you just touch it with your hand, you can get covered in oil.
And the interest networks are intertwined. No matter who you move, it affects the whole body. Take Tian Bowen, for example—he is the party secretary of our village, and he has interest ties with some people in the town, the county, and even the city.
Vice Mayor Liu has only been transferred to our Ganzhou for a year or so. Wanting to rectify private mines is not that easy. So, if he wants to move this piece of fat, he needs to wait for an opportunity."
"What opportunity?" Daqiangzi asked impatiently.
Wan Quan hesitated: "If you want to talk about an opportunity, it might be with you guys."
Not just Daqiangzi, even Sun Wang was energized: "How do you say that?"
"What kind of opportunity?" Da Qiangzi asked impatiently.
Wan Quan hesitated for a moment: "If you're talking about an opportunity, it might lie with you all."
Not only Da Qiangzi, but even Sun Wang felt a surge of energy: "What do you mean by that?"
