Chapter 1398

"Isn't he good buddies with Dong Gui?"

"Not long ago, I saw them going to a restaurant with their arms around each other's shoulders? What happened today?"

Dong Gui was quite famous in this area. Because of Dong Gui and Lu Jin Peng, Xu Damao had scrambled to befriend Dong Gui, wishing he could hug Dong Gui's thigh and call him godfather, hoping to get a connection with Dong Gui and make a little money with him.

This Xu Damao had a thick enough face, a sweet enough mouth, and knew how to handle things. After a few back-and-forths, he really became buddies with Dong Gui, privately flipping some things together, and indeed earned quite a bit.

It must be said that Dong Gui treated Xu Damao quite well. Although they were drinking buddies, he didn't look after Xu Damao little on weekdays, helping Xu Damao flip quite a few things. Otherwise, Xu Damao wouldn't have been able to take out small gold fish to grease the wheels.

But who would have thought!

This dog Xu Damao turned his face and didn't recognize people. In order to achieve merit and climb up, he didn't say a word and led people to expose Dong Gui, and even personally led people to raid Dong Gui's foundation.

Because they were brothers with Dong Gui, when the two were drinking, Xu Damao knew quite a bit about Dong Gui's affairs and was familiar with Dong Gui's house. Without much effort, he dug out a large amount of the "Four Olds" from Dong Gui's house, and even found a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, grain coupons, and meat coupons of unknown origin...

With this, Dong Gui was finished.

Dong Gui, whose arms were grabbed, glared at Xu Damao with man-eating eyes and cursed like a madman: "Xu Damao, you faithless animal! I, Dong Gui, was blind to recognize you as a brother! I, Dong Gui, ask myself that I haven't treated you poorly, yet you, this dog, actually betrayed me. You rotten piece of filth, you deserve to be a eunuch. You wait, even if I die, I won't let you go. I've been arrested, but don't think you can run either. You've done plenty of speculation and flipping antiques. I can't be born in the same year, month, and day as you, but I want to die in the same year, month, and day as you!"

Xu Damao's face looked ugly: "Dong fellow, shut your mouth. Stop spouting nonsense here. What evidence do you have? Can you produce evidence? I, Xu Damao, walk straight and sit upright. Even if you talk until the sky breaks, no one will believe you. I advise you to cooperate with the investigation obediently, confess your problems honestly, and actively reform, so you can suffer less."

"Bastard! Animal! This dog Xu Damao will die a horrible death!"

Dong Gui was forcibly taken away by the Workers' Inspection Team, cursing Xu Damao incessantly along the way, making the neighbors point at Xu Damao. Even the people from the Workers' Inspection Team felt some disdain for Xu Damao's behavior of selling out friends and brothers.

But Xu Damao didn't care at all. Instead, he directed the Workers' Inspection Team to load boxes and bags of things onto the truck with high spirits, ignoring the curses and struggles of Dong Gui's wife, and rudely stripping the jade bracelet off her hand.

Dong Gui's two sons hid on the side, staring at Xu Damao with eyes full of hatred. Dong Gui's second daughter was so scared she hid in the corner wiping tears. The scene made many old neighbors feel unbearable, after all, they were old neighbors who had lived together for many years.

An old man with gray hair sighed heavily: "Sigh! Dong Gui had a poor choice of friends!"

An old man leaning on a cane said meaningfully: "As the saying goes: you know a person's face but not their heart. You must take this as a warning and not trust others lightly, because you don't know whether it's a person or an animal under that human skin."

Regardless of what fate the Dong family would fall into, and regardless of what people said about Xu Damao.

Anyway, Xu Damao had achieved his goal and couldn't wait to find Cao Weiguo to claim credit.

Xu Damao said with a face full of excitement: "Brother Weiguo, no, Leader, Dong Gui has been locked in the Security Section for interrogation, and I have also raided a large amount of property of unknown origin from Dong Gui's house, which also includes a large amount of the Four Olds and items with feudal colors... Leader, do you think I can join the Committee now?"

Cao Weiguo put down the fountain pen in his hand and looked up at Xu Damao: "Brother Damao, you did a good job this time. As long as Dong Gui's problem is true, I will definitely ask for merit for you from the factory leaders. By the way, have the items raided from Dong Gui's house been organized and counted?"

Xu Damao said hurriedly: "Not yet. Most of the things are temporarily placed in the workshop where scrap is piled, and there hasn't been time to send people to count them. Leader, do you want to go over and check first?"

Cao Weiguo closed his notebook: "Then you take me over to see."

Xu Damao smiled obsequiously: "Leader, please!"

Following Xu Damao into the scrap workshop, they saw miscellaneous items of all kinds piled up on an open space, as well as several wooden boxes and iron boxes of various sizes.

Opening a wooden box, inside were things wrapped in blue and gray cloth. Cao Weiguo picked one up at random, opened it, and his eyes lit up instantly.

This was a Longquan kiln lotus jar from the Ming Dynasty. Even twenty or thirty years later, it could be exchanged for a three-bedroom apartment in the downtown area of a first-tier city.

Cao Weiguo held the jar and looked at it left and right, saying casually: "Brother Damao, go to the Committee and find Director Liu. Have him bring people over to count the property, then register all these items in the book and hand them over to Factory Director Li."

Xu Damao didn't suspect anything and hurried to find Director Liu.

As for worrying about Cao Weiguo stealing them, there were guards from the Security Section at the door, and this was in the factory. In summer, clothes were thin. If he took something, where could he hide it?

But Xu Damao didn't know his good brother had a cheat!

Once Xu Damao left, and there was no surveillance in the workshop, Cao Weiguo immediately started swapping things, picking out the high-value antiques in these iron and wooden boxes and taking them away, then filling them with imitations and fakes he bought from the Pigeon Market...

The items were swapped. As for whether that Dong fellow recognized them or whether the accounts matched, that was none of his business.

They don't match? That's your Dong fellow's reason, what does it have to do with me, Cao fellow?

Suspect me?

Produce evidence?

If you can't produce evidence, you're just looking for trouble!

Don't forget where this is!

Ten minutes later, Xu Damao arrived with Director Liu and several comrades from the Committee.

Director Liu was a relative of Factory Director Li and a die-hard confidant.

Most of the illegal property raided was counted and registered by him.

Director Liu greeted him enthusiastically: "Section Chief Cao!"

Cao Weiguo put down the blue and white bowl in his hand: "Director Liu is here. There are quite a few things here, and I'll have to trouble you again."

Director Liu smiled brightly: "As long as it's serving the people, even if it's bitter, it's sweet."

Cao Weiguo gave Director Liu a thumbs up: "Director Liu has good awareness, everyone should learn from Director Liu!"

Director Liu smiled happily: "Hahaha... Section Chief Cao, you're praising me until I'm embarrassed. If we're talking about learning, everyone should learn from you. You don't fear sacrifice, fight bravely against criminals, and resolutely strike against corrupt elements. You are the true good example!"

Watching Director Liu and Cao Weiguo flattering each other, Xu Damao felt a bit unhappy. The credit in front of me is all mine, what are you two spouting nonsense about here?

Xu Damao smiled obsequiously: "Director Liu, these are all property of unknown origin that I led people to raid from Dong Gui's house. Inside, there are also a large amount of the Four Olds, which shows how serious Dong Gui's ideological problem is. You must count them well, and you must distinguish them carefully. These are all Dong Gui's criminal evidence."

Director Liu squinted at him: "Deputy Section Chief Xu, are you teaching me how to do my job?"

Xu Damao quickly smiled apologetically: "Don't dare, don't dare. You misunderstood, I was just making a suggestion."

Director Liu snorted coldly: "I've heard your suggestion. I'm in charge here now. You go do whatever you need to do, don't affect our work."

Xu Damao endured his anger, nodded and bowed as he turned to leave, cursing in his heart: "Dog relying on power, if you weren't the factory director's relative, what are you? Wait until I become a big leader, see how I deal with you. Daring to throw your official weight around with me, you're blind!" ===== CHAPTER 1400 =====
