Chapter 192

As the five were chatting, Wang An suddenly asked, "Brother Wu, do you know what's going on with our village head, Niu Yiqun?"

Wu Dong thought for a moment and said, "Him? He ran into a ruthless person, but it's no big deal. He was handled for serious work violations and expelled from the Party."

Wu Dong's words made Wang An pause; expelled, and it's no big deal? What kind of twisted logic is this?

Wu Dong suddenly frowned and asked, "By the way, I almost forgot. That Lu Yueyue you asked me to help with the paperwork—her background is quite fierce! Do you know her?"

"Know her? Which aspect are you talking about?" Wang An originally wanted to say he didn't know, but after all, he was the one who asked Wu Dong for help. If Wu Dong fell into a passive position because he didn't know the situation, then his own guilt would be huge.

However, Wang An's words not only stunned Wu Dong, but even Wang Shuai and the others were stunned; the four pairs of eyes looked straight at Wang An.

Would a normal person shamelessly say they know every aspect of someone else's wife? That's certainly impossible.

So, Wu Dong joked with a laugh, "Oh my, it turns out my little brother is the one who truly hides his skills. Tell the truth, what's going on?"

Seeing Wu Dong's state, Wang An didn't look like he was in a passive position, so except for the matter of them sleeping together and the killing, he briefly told what he knew about Lu Yueyue.

When he mentioned that Lu Yueyue's family were "Red Merchants," the faces of the four changed, all becoming serious and earnest.

Although Wang An also understood part of what Red Merchants were, he felt they were just patriotic merchants and nothing else special.

But seeing the four change their faces in unison, he realized that these four words seemed extraordinary; otherwise, with the background and family status of the four, how could they care?

After a while, Wu Dong slowly said, "No wonder, no wonder Deputy County Magistrate Zheng was so desperate to protect Niu Yiqun and got implicated; it turns out they are Red Merchants."

Wang An was still confused, so he asked suspiciously, "What is going on? Are you guys scared?"

Wang Shuai looked at Wang An and said, "It's not that we're scared; it's just very troublesome to provoke them. This group of people can block you in every aspect. Our chamois skins this time were collected by them to earn foreign exchange."

At this time, Wu Dong put away his serious face and said to Wang Shuai and the others with a laugh, "I didn't expect the reason our business went so smoothly was fundamentally because of Xiao An."

Wang An was even more confused; what the hell are they talking about?

So, Wang An asked, "Can you brothers stop talking in riddles? Is it appropriate to leave me here confused?"

"Hahaha," the four looked at Wang An's anxious expression and burst into laughter.

After they had laughed enough, Wu Dong began to explain.

It turned out that Wu Dong and his group's business was importing a batch of second-hand machines from abroad, including production lines. These things were urgently needed domestically, but foreign exchange was insufficient. After finally scraping together enough foreign exchange, the goods were blocked.

A group of people including the four of them were powerful in Heilongjiang Province and could find connections domestically, but once they went abroad, they were nothing.

So, they used all their efforts to find people who could exert influence abroad, and after a lot of effort, they finally found a group of Red Merchants in Shanghai.

However, North-South communication was limited, and the Northeast was separated by the Shanhai Pass. Although the Southerners couldn't reach into the Northeast, the Northeasterners couldn't reach out either.

Just when everyone was in a panic, people from above called to inquire about Lu Yueyue's situation. Of course, the call wasn't answered by Wu Dong, but by the county magistrate. The magistrate naturally didn't dare to hide anything and told about Wu Dong handling the paperwork.

Afterward, the magistrate told Wu Dong about the situation, but because Lu Yueyue's paperwork issue was nothing to Wu Dong, he just listened and let it go.

But soon, the Shanghai side agreed to help, and the goods were safely transported back.

After understanding the process, Wang An felt dizzy and confused; are things in this world really this coincidental? Even sleeping together could lead to such a big pile of related events!

It must be said, "bullshit" events should not be underestimated!

The four flattered and teased Wang An, constantly asking about Lu Yueyue, but since everything that should be said had been said, how could someone like Wang An tell private matters?

After a while, Wang An didn't continue to ask about Niu Yiqun, but asked, "What about his nephew, Niu Dali?"

"He probably won't be able to get out. After Lu Yueyue went back, the Shanghai side had no more misgivings and was retaliating desperately. Even Deputy County Magistrate Zheng was disciplined. He has no one to protect him, and he's basically finished," Wu Dong said casually.

Wang An nodded and suddenly asked suspiciously, "How do you know everything about these messy things?"

Wu Dong laughed upon hearing this: "What are you saying? I'm specifically in charge of these messy things in the county, hahaha."

As they chatted, time approached noon, and Wang An said goodbye and left. Although the four tried their best to keep him, Wang An had things to do, so he found an excuse to leave.

Watching Wang An's back, Wu Dong smiled at the three beside him: "Ever since I met Wang An, all kinds of good things have come. This kid is simply our lucky star, hahaha."

"Yeah!" The three echoed with smiles.

Wang An drove the sled to Qiao Xiaohu's place, collected the money, and after settling the accounts, Wang An took 340 yuan, left 4 hares from the sled, handed Qiao Xiaohu 1 hare, and left the rest for Qiao Xiaohu to sell.

Although this time there were only hares and no other meat, Qiao Xiaohu was still very happy, because among the pile of hares, he picked out 12 hazel grouse.

You have to know that in so many times of selling meat, Wang An had never let Qiao Xiaohu sell a single hazel grouse, and there were many rich people who asked Qiao Xiaohu, but Qiao Xiaohu had no goods, so not being able to earn money was the most painful thing!

Besides, the commission for selling one hazel grouse was basically the same as selling 20 jin of wild boar meat, and as long as Qiao Xiaohu sold the 12 hazel grouse, he could earn 7.2 yuan, which was much more time-saving and easier than selling 240 jin of wild boar meat.

When Wang An was about to leave with the sled, Qiao Xiaohu suddenly said, "Big Brother, the end of the year is coming, and all meat prices have risen recently. Should we raise ours?"

Wang An said casually, "You just sell it as you see fit; don't ask me about this."

"Alright, Big Brother, then I'll raise it a bit. If I can sell it for more money and don't, wouldn't I be a fool?" Qiao Xiaohu scratched his head and said with a laugh.

Wang An smiled without speaking, handed Qiao Xiaohu a cigarette, and drove the sled away.

Wang An thought about what to buy and remembered the scene of his old man acting up the other day.

His old man was quite interesting, waving the cigarette basket in front of him, and seeing him unmoved, he took the cigarette paper and tobacco and waved them. Thinking of this, Wang An couldn't help but laugh.

Arriving at the supply and marketing cooperative, Wang An bought 20 packs of Mount Zhangbai cigarettes. He originally wanted to buy Bingcheng, but thinking his old man would definitely complain, he changed his mind.

After all, even Mount Zhangbai cigarettes at 7 cents a pack were not something ordinary people could afford to smoke.

Just looking at so many Mount Zhangbai cigarettes, Wang An thought of his brother-in-law Mu Xueli saying, "I only smoke Mount Zhangbai," and that smug scene.

Day after day!
