After hearing Ke Zhifang's words, Su Xinghui laughed and said, "Alright, I won't ask you for money."

After finishing the call with Ke Zhifang, Su Xinghui made a few more calls and then rested.

Early the next morning, Su Xinghui asked Nie Xin about the progress of the embankment repair plan. Nie Xin said it was fast and the plan would be out tomorrow. Su Xinghui expressed satisfaction with his progress and then said that he would go to see the situation of the lake embankment in the county with Li Zhongwen today and let Nie Xin grasp that matter tightly.

Nie Xin nodded repeatedly in agreement. Could he dare not grasp it tightly now? He had defected to Su Xinghui, so he could only hold Su Xinghui's thigh tightly in Chongjin County. If he didn't hold this thigh tightly, he would be surrounded by enemies in Chongjin County.

Su Xinghui asked Duan Qi to arrange another car. The driver of this car was a retired soldier specially arranged by Duan Qi, named Shen Hao, who was less than 30 years old this year. His personality was very steady and he didn't speak much. This personality made Su Xinghui feel quite satisfied.

Since it was arranged by Duan Qi, this showed that Shen Hao should be worthy of trust.

Since they were going to the countryside to see the lake embankment today, they drove directly from the south of the county seat to Jinxi Township in the south of Chengguan Town, which was also Li Zhongwen's hometown.

Jinxi Township was only a few kilometers away from the county seat, and the car drove there in a while. They didn't go to the township government and went directly onto the lake embankment from a road. This section of the lake embankment was also full of pits and bumps, and relatively large cracks and overturned concrete blocks could be seen everywhere, making driving very difficult.

Su Xinghui focused on the slope protection stones under the lake embankment. The slope protection stones here were similar to those on the river embankment, and there were also many missing places. Su Xinghui got off the car randomly halfway a few times and also found that the thickness and other indicators of the slope protection stones were insufficient.

When such a lake embankment encounters a major flood next year, how can it resist it?

After the car drove for a while, Su Xinghui saw thousands of water birds resting on a beach, but not far from them, a few bamboo poles were inserted, and a few water birds were hung upside down in the sky between the bamboo poles, mourning constantly. Seeing this scene, Su Xinghui felt a bit confused, but he immediately thought that this must be the net mentioned by those bird watchers.

He immediately asked Shen Hao to stop the car, got off, and walked toward that place.

Li Zhongwen got off the car, and Shen Hao was also ready to get off. Su Xinghui said, "Shen Hao, you drive to the township government to call people and notify the people from the reserve management office to come over."

Shen Hao nodded silently, started the car, turned around, and drove toward the direction of Jinxi Township Government.

Su Xinghui was wearing leather shoes and it was inconvenient to walk on the beach, so he simply took off his leather shoes and socks, walked barefoot on the beach, and rolled up his trouser legs high, rolling them to the root of his thighs. Li Zhongwen also learned his appearance, took off his shoes and socks, rolled up his trouser legs, and followed behind, but he didn't walk as fast as Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui walked over, startling a group of water birds. They flew into the sky. A few didn't see the net and were hung on the net again, hung upside down in the sky, and mourned.

Su Xinghui walked to the birds hanging upside down and saw the appearance of the net. It turned out that these nets were woven with very thin transparent nylon ropes. In the morning sun, you couldn't see them clearly unless you walked close. These birds found it even more difficult to discover these nets. They easily hit the nets during the flight, and once they hit the nets, their wings and feet were entangled by the mesh, and the more they struggled, the tighter it became, and they could never escape again.

After seeing clearly, Su Xinghui immediately set about untying a swan from the net. Li Zhongwen also followed up and helped untie the birds on the net.

They untied all the birds hanging on the net, put them in the distance, and Su Xinghui pulled out the bamboo poles hanging the net and rolled up the net. This net was very long, at least several hundred meters. Su Xinghui walked forward along the net and collected the whole net.

At this time, he heard a shout: "What are you doing?"
