Chapter 1220: Settled

~7 min read 1,352 words

Hearing Guan Shengjie said, "Give me the video camera."

Huang Xiaowu and a young man handed the video camera to Hearing Guan Shengjie.

Hearing Guan Shengjie took the video camera, turned around and went back into the room, then moved the black-and-white TV, checked the interface at the back, and after finding no problems, found the connection cable and connected the TV and the video camera.

Immediately after, Hearing Guan Shengjie pressed a button on the video camera, and the buzzing sound of rewinding rang out.

After a few minutes, a light click was heard, and the buzzing sound disappeared.

Hearing Guan Shengjie pressed the play button. The screen was pitch black, but suppressed breathing could be heard.

After a while, lights appeared on the pitch-black screen.

It didn't take long, and heavy-duty trucks rumbled past on the screen.

Hearing Guan Shengjie nodded, connected the other video camera, rewound it, and pressed the play button.

This screen was much clearer because there were lights, and even the snowflakes drifting down from the sky could be seen clearly.

Just then, voices could be heard from inside.

"Director, stay inside; it's so cold outside, it's even snowing."

"It's just too stuffy inside, so I came out to get some air."

"It's the middle of the night; I'm here, what else are you worried about?"

"..."

Soon, the screen shook back and forth a few times, and then the screen became wider.

The people who were just talking also appeared on the screen.

"I recognize this guy." Sun Wang pointed at the TV. "He is Chen Hancheng, Director of the Rare Earth Industry Management Office. He wears the same pair of pants as Wang Bowu, and he has been to the mine to inspect work more than once, but it's actually just going through the motions."

"Settled!" Tang Lin said with a smile.

Hearing Guan Shengjie turned off the TV and pried the tape out of the video camera. "Wu Chao, have your men take the tape to Shaoguan."

Wu Chao nodded, took the tape, and handed it to a brother. "Go, wait for us in Shaoguan."

"Take my car and go." Tang Lin threw the car keys to that brother.

Watching that brother leave, Hearing Guan Shengjie checked the time; it was already nearly seven o'clock. The sky outside was completely bright, but the snow was still falling, and the whole world was a vast expanse of white.

"Everyone who should come has come, right?" Tang Lin scanned the room and looked out the window at the dense crowd.

"Almost." Sun Wang nodded.

Originally, he only contacted sixty or seventy people, but when they knew they were going to deal with Wang Bowu, they contacted people around them.

There were more than two hundred people who came today, and many were from outside villages. Everyone had been bullied by Wang Bowu and was owed quite a bit of wages.

To be honest, if they were just bullied, these honest and simple villagers would absolutely not come to join the fun.

But being owed wages, even if it was just a penny, they had to take this opportunity to ask for it back.

Because that was the money they deserved for their labor, why shouldn't it be given to them?

They hadn't read many books, or even hadn't read books, but they also knew the truth that there is strength in numbers.

If they missed this time, there would definitely be no such opportunity in the future, so everyone who knew the news came.

Tang Lin looked at Hearing Guan Shengjie. "Should we go now, or wait a while?"

Sun Wang said, "That old thing Wang Bowu goes to the mine to eat every morning. It's nearly eight o'clock now; he should be at the mine."

Hearing Guan Shengjie took out two boxes of tapes from his bag, put them into the video camera, and handed them to Huang Xiaowu.

"You take it, just stand in the crowd and film, don't let Wang Bowu and the others discover you."

"Okay!" Huang Xiaowu agreed and handed one of the video cameras to the young man beside him.

"Let's go!" Hearing Guan Shengjie stepped out.

………………

Tianhe Mining!

On the hillside, there were seven or eight bungalows. Besides Wang Bowu's office, there were the kitchen and the dining room, which was where he and his subordinates ate.

Early this morning, dog meat was stewing in the big iron pot in the kitchen, and the fragrance drifted out through the window.

In the office, Wang Bowu sat on a leather sofa, and the stove in front of him was burning red. The temperature in the room was very high, so he was only wearing a vest.

Opposite him sat a middle-aged man with a square face, dark skin, and short, thick eyebrows.

Especially his eyes were quite attractive; they were not only particularly large but also bulging and protruding outward.

It was as if he were a hyperthyroidism patient, caused by excessive thyroid hormone secretion leading to eyeball lesions.

And the eyeballs were covered with red blood streaks, looking quite fierce and scary.

This guy's name is Zhao Yugang, Wang Bowu's number one thug and also the mine manager of Tianhe Rare Earth Mine.

In Ganzhou, there is such a saying: there are generally two types of people who can engage in rare earths.

One type is people who came out of prison, and the other is people who can fish people out of prison.

And Zhao Yugang was fished out by Wang Bowu after being sentenced to death with a reprieve.

"Where did you get the dog? You stewed it so early in the morning."

Wang Bowu took a cigarette and placed it on the red-hot stove lid.

A wisp of blue smoke rose, followed by a flame.

Wang Bowu picked up the cigarette, blew out the flame, and took a puff.

Zhao Yugang leaned back on the sofa, holding a copy of "The Sword of the Third Young Master" and reading it.

"It was brought by Da Fu. The skin was peeled off in the middle of the night yesterday, stewed for more than an hour, and more than ten pieces of big tofu were added this morning."

Wang Bowu smiled. "It's snowing outside. It's not bad to eat some dog meat stewed with tofu and drink some wine in this weather."

"That's what I thought too." Zhao Yugang sat up straight. "I brought two bottles of Yugong wine; let's drink it in a while."

Just then, the sound of a car engine came from outside, followed by the sound of car doors slamming.

Wang Bowu looked up and saw it was a Santana, then a figure flashed, the office door creaked, and Chen Hancheng walked in.

"I said Secretary Wang, what are you stewing in the pot so early in the morning? I smelled the fragrance as soon as I got off the car."

Wang Bowu saw it was Chen Hancheng and stood up laughing. "Old Chen, you really came at the right time. Last night, I don't know where Da Fu got a dog and stewed it. I just said that eating dog meat and drinking some wine in this weather is just right."

"Then I really came at the right time." Chen Hancheng said with a smile.

"Director Chen, sit here." Zhao Yugang greeted Chen Hancheng.

Wang Bowu asked with a smile, "Old Chen, you ran over here so early in the morning; you didn't really smell the fragrance, did you?"

Chen Hancheng laughed loudly, sat on the sofa, took the cigarette handed over by Zhao Yugang, and was just about to say something when the office door was kicked open with a bang, and a young man ran in, panting.

"Se... Secretary, Bo... Boss, it's... it's not good."

This guy was panting heavily, obviously exhausted.

Zhao Yugang said unhappily, "The sky won't fall; speak slowly, what's the matter?"

"Sun... Sun Wang!" The young man gasped a few times and calmed down. "Sun Wang brought two or three hundred villagers up the mountain."
