Chapter 557: Middleman

"I'll give it to you!"

Ji Weidong pointed at Li Xuewu and asked through gritted teeth, "According to your meaning, will there be other offices?"

"That depends on you."

Li Xuewu raised an eyebrow and said, "Wherever you pick up scrap, remember to tell me. I have some friends who are in the scrap collection business."

Ji Weidong looked at Li Xuewu with narrowed eyes and said, "Wool-pulling, right?"

After saying this, he didn't talk about it anymore and turned to the warehouse issue.

He already understood Li Xuewu's meaning very well. Although these ships were said to belong to the scrap recycling station and might be linked to the Steel Mill, the part that belonged to him and the Investigation Department wouldn't be lacking.

"Warehouse."

Ji Weidong thought for a while and introduced, "Mainly grain, white liquor, candy, dairy products, tea, condiments, etc."

As he introduced, he told Li Xuewu the departments they belonged to.

This was a bit complicated. The warehouses of various sizes were distributed across departments such as light industry, commerce, grain, supply and marketing, aquatic products, and railways.

These warehouses were actually similar to the logistics welfare warehouses of the railway and timber mill when Li Xuewu's second uncle helped him sell pears.

Guandong had deep roots in Steel City. By utilizing the convenience of his position, he communicated with logistics departments of multiple sectors and industries; he was actually doing business.

It was just that this business was too big, and after bringing materials in from the outside, he also dumped them onto the black market, which caused the current situation.

These warehouses naturally belonged to these departments, but if they were to pursue responsibility, Li Xuewu and the others would probably be busy here until next year.

Not to mention the connections involved, just thinking about how many people they would offend by doing this—did they still want to leave Steel City?

So Ji Weidong was also very troubled. Seeing Li Xuewu ask, he couldn't wait to state the problem.

And Xiang Yunnian was also there; those involving Xiang Yunnian also needed Xiang Yunnian to participate.

Li Xuewu took a puff of his cigarette, narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and asked, "Are those people waiting outside from these units?"

"Most of them are."

Ji Weidong was also frowning. He borrowed Li Xuewu's lighter to light his cigarette and said hesitantly, "They are beating around the bush trying to inquire about the personnel involved, and even more so asking how to deal with the sealed materials."

Li Xuewu tapped the table with his fingers and asked Ji Weidong, "Do you have a channel to deal with those things?"

"That's exactly what I'm talking about."

Ji Weidong puffed smoke from his nose and said, "If this were a single variety, or if it were in Beijing, I would definitely have a way to deal with it, but now..."

"Then you have to be willing to let go."

Li Xuewu reminded Ji Weidong, "It's early April now, and we're about to enter the middle of the month. You've been in Steel City long enough. Xiang Section Chief is easier to talk about, but you must go back."

"I know that."

Ji Weidong looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Why don't you ask your friend who collects scrap if they want these things?"

"Heh heh."

Li Xuewu just gave him a light laugh, then said, "Since you can't deal with it, then sell it to whoever owns the warehouse."

After saying this, Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Xiang Yunnian and said, "I still need your help."

Xiang Yunnian had been watching Ji Weidong and Li Xuewu dividing the spoils here, muttering in his heart about their audacity, but he wouldn't give them any leverage with his mouth.

Of course, he wouldn't do any bad things with these two bastards, because he knew that since they dared to say it in front of him, they weren't afraid of him.

But he wouldn't do anything bad with them either, so when Li Xuewu spoke, he didn't take the bait.

Li Xuewu wasn't in a hurry to talk to him, but instructed Ji Weidong, "It's not a solution to keep them waiting there. You go out, take them to the conference room for a meeting."

He beckoned Ji Weidong over and whispered, "Just say that shaking out those materials won't be good for anyone, let them acknowledge those materials, hand over the corresponding purchase material funds, and you can summarize it in the end."

This was also to give the Investigation Department an explanation. After all, with so many warehouses, there had to be a count of how many things were scraped out.

Li Xuewu had already eaten those ships, so he had to give people an explanation.

Xiang Yunnian had clearly stated that he didn't want these things, only the people.

But people also needed something to settle the case, so Li Xuewu had to think of it for Xiang Yunnian as well.

"Section Chief Xiang."

Li Xuewu turned to Xiang Yunnian and said, "The case has reached this point. You also know that we can't dig into the details here, right? Grasp the general direction, and I think the comrades in Steel City can still be trusted with the minor details."

Xiang Yunnian understood the meaning of Li Xuewu's words. It was nothing more than pacifying those people in the lobby; it wouldn't be good to offend everyone.

Although he came to investigate this case, he also had to consider many things. It wouldn't be good to count everyone, not leaving people any face at all; the contradictions stirred up would affect unity.

Li Xuewu's words also hid another meaning: these enterprise cadres, as Ji Weidong's bargaining chips, might have some people handed over to their respective units for handling.

Of course, the relevant recovery work would also be handed over to the relevant units, and Ji Weidong only needed to judge a rough number and add it to these materials during negotiations.

The interrogation had already exhausted everyone. If they had to recover them one by one, wouldn't they be exhausted to death?

Therefore, grasp the big and let go of the small, combine tension and relaxation, give Steel City face, and gain real benefits, so that these enterprises wouldn't look too ugly.

Even if they did all the work, it didn't necessarily mean they would get any credit from above; instead, they would get a reputation for being unforgiving.

Once Li Xuewu finished speaking, both Ji Weidong and Xiang Yunnian pondered in their hearts.

After weighing the pros and cons, both felt that Li Xuewu's opinion was feasible and necessary under the current situation.

Saying Ji Weidong was anxious to return to Beijing, in fact, Xiang Yunnian was even more anxious.

Since the three of them had the same goal, the specific actions became much simpler.

Xiang Yunnian also had his own conditions: even if those people were to be handed over to their respective units, they had to wait until they had fixed all the evidence chains and finished the materials.

Li Xuewu certainly agreed with this. After all, Ji Weidong's negotiation of the recovery amount with each unit had to be based on Xiang Yunnian's interrogation work.

The cooperation of the three could be said to be complementary; no one could do without the other, and no one would suffer a loss.

Especially when it came to the end, Li Xuewu proposed to take one-fifth of the recovery and warehouse processing and give it to Xiang Yunnian.

Whether it was used as case-handling funds or as travel subsidies for relevant personnel, Li Xuewu didn't care.

How to allocate and use it was up to Xiang Yunnian himself; even if he took it all himself, it had nothing to do with Li Xuewu and the others.

The rest, excluding the subsidies for the branch and the Steel Mill security department, would be collected by the Investigation Department for the time being.

In fact, the reason why Ji Weidong received the support of the Investigation Department was also because of this. A trip to the border opened up the thinking and pattern of those people.

You can't do things without money in handling cases. If you can't do things, there is no room for progress.

So Ji Weidong, who had the ability to handle cases and the ability to raise funds, was particularly favored by the leaders.

He was jumping around in Steel City, but no one came to give him trouble; it was all those people holding it up.

In fact, Li Xuewu wanted those materials more, but he couldn't take them, and he couldn't snatch food from the mouth of the Investigation Department.

This was also why he let Ji Weidong change them into money as much as possible. If you carry the money, you can go back.

Whether you throw it on the leader's desk or slap it on the leader's face, it all depends on Ji Weidong's character.

Four-fifths was enough for Ji Weidong to change to a deputy section chief, and he wouldn't have to be jealous of Li Xuewu all the time.

Li Xuewu didn't lose either. After all, he didn't show his face much here, and he didn't exert much effort.

If Ji Weidong didn't give him a penny, he wouldn't have anything to say. After all, Ji Weidong bought this opportunity for more than a thousand yuan this time.

And Li Xuewu just moved his mouth and let Wen San'er and Zhang Wanhe come here to help for more than a month.

If you calculate the account, Wen San'er was eating, drinking, and playing here... if you calculate the account, Li Xuewu might have to pay them back.

The special agents of the branch and the security department of the Steel Mill couldn't be counted as Li Xuewu's business. After all, Ji Weidong generously promised to give task subsidies.

What did Li Xuewu do? He did nothing, nothing more than helping to catch the main culprit.

If you calculate the reward specifically, it would probably just be a certificate of merit from the branch.

In fact, Li Xuewu was also doing voluntary labor. He himself said that coming to Steel City was mainly to inspect work.

Yeah, it had nothing to do with this case, just a side matter.

So what else could he ask for? Nothing more than spending ten or twenty thousand yuan to buy a pile of scrap iron ships.

He felt very satisfied. After all, those who are content are always happy.

Yeah, that's right, twenty-seven broken ships with a cargo capacity of a thousand tons.

According to the interrogation, regarding the construction cost of these ships, actually, those people didn't understand, but they were probably worth about a hundred thousand each.

Xiang Yunnian didn't refuse Li Xuewu's allocation. Even if he didn't want it, the people who came with him saw that others had subsidies, and they would always have some thoughts in their hearts.

Since it was distributed by the Investigation Department, Xiang Yunnian had no reason to refuse on their behalf.

After Ji Weidong introduced the relevant situation, he also briefly introduced the interrogation situation on his side.

It wasn't as fast as Ji Weidong's side, but it was advancing in an orderly manner step by step.

He wasn't in a hurry either; this kind of case had to be done solidly.

The three of them finished talking, and the people eating in the cafeteria were fewer; they had almost finished eating in batches.

Because they knew the three were talking, no one dared to come and disturb them. When they saw Li Xuewu and the others stand up, some people greeted Li Xuewu with a smile, or thanked him, or said polite words.

Ji Weidong and Xiang Yunnian were surprised; they didn't know what Li Xuewu had done to be so welcomed by their comrades.

Just like what Yang Zongfang said, he really didn't touch guns much. The three drivers were security cadres, following behind and pursing their lips at the "kind" marksmanship of the leaders.

Li Xuewu also held a hunting gun in his hand, which was a local brand produced here.

Seeing a pheasant, this gang raised their guns and fired together. That scene made the pheasant stunned at the time.

When had it ever been so prestigious, letting a section chief and three deputy section chiefs set off firecrackers to watch the fun?

However, after this excitement, seeing the annoyed expressions of those people, the pheasant flapped its wings and flew away with a dive.

"Hi! Pheasant stewed with mountain mushrooms~"

Yang Zongfang twitched his mouth, looking at the pheasant with regret.

After the laughter came from behind, he turned to the others and said, "Master Yang has brought the pot, just waiting for us to bring the pheasant back."

After saying this, he looked at the appearance of Dong Wenxue and the others, which was about the same as his own, but he turned his gaze to Li Xuewu.

"I say, Xuewu, it's fine if we don't succeed, why did you hold back?"

Seeing the others look over, he teased, "You wouldn't be looking at us waste, thinking of leaving us face, right?"

"Hahaha~~~"

This kind of self-deprecation might have some malice in young people, but for Li Xuewu, for them, it was a joke.

By the time they reached this level, marksmanship, and the doubt about survival ability derived from it, were no longer the conditions restricting their performance.

Instead, the great road is simple, and returning to the truth is the realm that these middle-aged cadres pursue.

As for the young people's love to show off, here, in Li Xuewu's place, it was completely unnecessary.

Especially Li Xuewu, although he was a pure young man, no one here treated him as a young man.

This also had Yang Zongfang using self-deprecation to tease Li Xuewu. Being able to come out to play, the attitude of these people represented that these people in the Steel Mill were going to stand behind Dong Wenxue.

It also represented the willingness to communicate and cooperate with each other, not wanting to see hidden knives in smiles or hypocrisy.

It seemed to be talking about marksmanship, but in fact, it was reminding Li Xuewu of their attitude, and also prompting Li Xuewu on what attitude to use to treat these people.

And Li Xuewu naturally understood, smiled and checked the hunting gun in his hand, and while walking forward, replied casually, "Just started, just calibrating the gun."

After explaining this, Li Xuewu asked back, "Want to eat roasted roe deer with mushrooms? If I see one, I'll help you hit one."

"Bragging!"

Hearing Li Xuewu's answer, Yang Zongfang smiled with satisfaction, and teased with his mouth, "This mountain ditch has been walked by us, pheasants and rabbits are possible, but anything bigger is probably cleaned up by the fellow villagers."

"Heh heh, then don't blame me."

Li Xuewu winked and laughed, "The limit of this mountain is pheasants and rabbits, but my limit is not."

"I believe this."

Yang Zongfang nodded, just smiled, didn't say anything more, and turned to look for pheasants with a gun.

He liked this, especially eating in the wild, which felt more fragrant.

Li Xuewu also knew what he meant and didn't continue to talk about the experience of going up the mountain with Fu Bin. The wild boar he hit made people in the factory discuss it for several days.

Unlike fishing, fishing is the fun of deception, while hunting is the fun of showing strength and hunting.

This is a survival skill carved into human genes during the slash-and-burn cultivation era.

Li Xuewu quite likes this way of leisure and entertainment, but he is busy most of the time and rarely goes out to play.

And hunting has certain risks, labor-intensive, and he is not very willing to move.

The hunting gun at home was only used once and then shelved.

Old Biaozi likes to play, but Li Xuewu is afraid of him having an accident, so after he used it a few times, he took it to Haiyuncang.

It's not that Li Xuewu is stingy, but that Old Biaozi is too reckless. There is no need to dance with knives and guns for fun.

Li Xuewu advocates him finding a partner, even if he finds a few more.

But this kid doesn't know if he has been with these bachelors for too long, or because of his family, he doesn't have the intention to find a partner after having money.

"Bang!"

Li Xuewu was walking when he heard a gunshot from the front. He followed and looked ahead, but it was Yang Shuxing who fired.

"Heh heh, didn't hit."

Yang Shuxing was also joining in the fun. Seeing Li Xuewu look over, he followed Yang Zongfang's words and teased.

They were all cadres in the factory, Li Xuewu didn't care, smiled, passed them and went to the front.

These people knew that if they wanted to eat pheasant stewed with mushrooms at noon today, they had to rely on Li Xuewu; they couldn't do it.

Unless the pheasant was tied to a tree, it wouldn't be easy to hit.

The previous few times, they asked the security to go up the mountain to get a few, but this time they had the fun of participating.

Li Xuewu didn't think about showing off, but wanted to hit a few early to go back.

This forest is messy, undeveloped, all hairy paths, and some places have no roads.

It's not only tiring to walk, but also scratches clothes.

It's all just to fire two shots for fun, and no one really wants to struggle on the mountain.

Li Xuewu walked for a while, saw a green head looking around in the grass, raised his gun and didn't aim much.

"Bang!"

"Got it, got it, got it, got it~"

Several people were following not far behind Li Xuewu. Seeing something Li Xuewu hit fly out of the grass, they knew he hit it.

The security following behind was very clever, passed the crowd to pick it up, and several people looked at it.

The power of this hunting gun brought by the security was not great, just shattering the pheasant's head.

But this also confirmed Li Xuewu's marksmanship, and the three security guards nodded in conviction.

Pheasants eat grass seeds in the grass and will keep shaking their heads to observe danger, so it's easy to hit the body, but hard to hit the head.

For the rest of the time, Li Xuewu performed the skill of headshots for several people.

In the middle, Dong Wenxue and the others also tried it with Li Xuewu's help, but their accuracy... still had room for improvement.

After playing for more than an hour, several people walked back. Because they were carrying prey in their bags, several people were in high spirits, talking and laughing.

Yang Zongfang found an opportunity to walk behind with Li Xuewu and teased with a smile, "You playing missing has made Beijing very anxious."

After saying this, he had an surprised expression, "I didn't expect that your status in the factory is so high now? You have things to consult by phone from thousands of miles away?"

"I don't know about this, where to start?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and walked down the mountain with Yang Zongfang, laughing, "I've been really busy these few days, you've all seen it."

"Mm mm."

Yang Zongfang nodded, "First day busy for a day and a night, second day slept for a day and a night."

"No way."

Li Xuewu carried the gun and curled his lips, "Can't throw away the work here, the mission has a confidential nature."

Speaking of this, Li Xuewu also complained about the little rabbits wiretapping his phone last night.

Yang Zongfang also smiled. He knew Li Xuewu didn't want to bring up this topic, and he was just avoiding the Rolling Mill's phone calls.

"I'm not urging you, nor am I interfering with your work."

Taking off his gloves, Yang Zongfang looked at the scenery on the mountain and explained, "The secretary called me here to ask about your situation, but didn't say anything else."

"Mm, after all, we are people with an organization."

Li Xuewu said with a smile, "There is leadership care for business trips, this treatment is rare."

"I'm envious, hahahaha."

Yang Zongfang also joked with Li Xuewu, then said, "How many more days will you stay? If you don't stay long next week, my suggestion is to reply to the factory, so as to be passive."

Li Xuewu also looked into the distance with Yang Zongfang's line of sight and said casually, "We'll talk about it on Monday."

"As you wish."

Yang Zongfang wouldn't care about Li Xuewu's way of doing things. Replying or not replying to the phone had nothing to do with him anyway, he just brought the words.

"Hey~"

Li Xuewu turned his head, looked at Yang Zongfang and asked, "The secretary called you, didn't you think about going back to Beijing to see?"

"Don't fool me."

Yang Zongfang looked at Li Xuewu and said, "The peaceful days now are quite good. I don't have the intention to get involved, don't use flowers to set me up."

"Heh heh, you think too much."

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and smiled, like a tiger that had eaten its fill.

By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, simple tents had been set up on the platform by the lake. It wasn't that complicated, just for shade.

Simple tables and chairs were placed inside, and simple stoves were set up by the car, and pots and pans were all complete.

"Master Yang, now that we have pheasants, it depends on your craftsmanship."

Yang Zongfang greeted the guesthouse chef Master Yang with a smile, signaling the pheasants in the security's hands.

It was as if these pheasants were hit back by him, making everyone laugh.

Li Xuewu didn't care, followed several people to sit on the stools, and drank tea around the small table.

The fun of camping lies in its primitiveness and inconvenience, but they came out to play, and the things were very well prepared.

Especially the tea prepared by Wang Shumin for several people, the water temperature was just right, obviously watching several people go down the mountain to prepare.

This attendant is really not simple, Li Xuewu could tell from the eyes of several others.

However, he didn't have the habit of dealing with the leader's housework, nor did he have that mind, so he chose to turn a blind eye and not listen.

Drink tea when you should, chat when you should, and chat with these people.

After drinking a cup of hot tea and sweating, it was considered to avoid the risk of a cold, and several people took fishing rods and stools to the lakeside.

The location here was obviously handled by someone, and it could be seen that the good positions for fishing were flattened, perhaps by the security guards.

Li Xuewu carried the stool and followed behind several people, found a position next to Dong Wenxue and sat down.

The security helped several people divide the bait and helped hang the hooks. After throwing them into the water, several people chatted again.

They all knew today's arrangement, so they left enough space for Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxue, the teacher and student.

Yang Zongfang laughed and asked Li Xuewu a few meters away, "Does Xuewu know how to fish?"

"Not really, only played once."

Li Xuewu told the truth; he just played casually once, and it was when he was performing a mission.

That time almost made Third Uncle sour to death.

However, every time Li Xuewu thought of that experience, he felt heartache, so he had to say a few words with a smile and didn't want to think about it anymore.

"Hahaha~"

Yang Zongfang laughed at the other two, "We can't reach our hands on the mountain, but we can show our faces in this water. We can't let Section Chief Li specialize in beauty."

"Hahaha~"

Everyone laughed loudly and chatted in a low voice, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Dong Wenxue kept smiling and looking at the fish float, listening to the laughter of several people in his ears, looking very relaxed.

Li Xuewu had no intention of fishing; bombing fish was about the same. He thought it was slow even with a net.

It wasn't that he didn't have the patience to do things, but he felt it was a waste of time, and he didn't like eating fish.

"Teacher, there are some problems with the case."

Li Xuewu looked at the water while whispering the arrangement of last night, picking what could be said.

Dong Wenxue was surprised by Li Xuewu's harvest. He knew about the existence of the recycling station in Beijing, but he didn't expect Li Xuewu to play so big.

However, he had also seen big storms and waves and didn't show it on his face.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Xuewu knew that the teacher was thinking, so he slowed down his speech and said his thoughts.

"These ships are chickens that lay eggs, can't be idle. Training the team is one aspect, and convenient transport and deployment is also a path."

"I know your thoughts."

Dong Wenxue nodded and asked, "Tell me how these people are arranged, and then tell me how these ships are arranged."

"People are from Jicheng, and there are also locals in Steel City."

Li Xuewu pulled up the fishing rod and looked at it. The bait was gone, representing that there were fish in this water, but they were a bit cunning.

After changing the bait and casting the rod again, Li Xuewu continued, "The social relations in Jicheng are a bit complicated, but the people on the ship are just right for this complicated relationship control."

"As for the ships, they must be established in the form of a fleet."

Li Xuewu paused and continued to introduce, "Hanging under the Steel Mill in the name of the recycling station, forming a transport team to work. As for the goal, based on Steel City, first carry out river transport, and then slowly carry out near-sea transport. The ships are big, so it shouldn't be a problem."

River ships and sea ships are still somewhat different, but at the position of a thousand tons, near-sea transport is not a problem.

The most important thing is people. People with rich sailing experience are the most important.

"You are thinking of the south, right?"

Dong Wenxue hadn't moved his fishing rod, thinking about things in his heart, not paying much attention to this.

"Yes."

Li Xuewu frankly admitted what the teacher said, but emphasized, "This is a gradual process. Temporarily, I think they can run to Jinmen within a year or two, which is a success."

"Heh heh, this goal is not small."

Dong Wenxue laughed lightly, then replied, "Cooperation is fine, affiliation is also fine. Whether it's Jinmen or the south you're thinking of, I don't oppose it."

After saying the affirmative words, Dong Wenxue turned his head and asked, "But have you thought about it? You have a fleet, what goods are you going to transport? The Steel Mill has no goods to go south, and near-sea transport is not allowed."

"Human effort is the decisive factor."

Li Xuewu smiled indifferently and said, "If you make money in the future, maybe I will order bigger ships, heh heh heh."

After saying this, Li Xuewu tried the fishing rod and said, "As for goods, you can talk to the departments in the city. There is always a need for transport. The wharf is in my hands, it's really convenient, right?"

"Not enough, right?"

Dong Wenxue looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Don't you have any other plans?"

"Don't, you think too much."

Li Xuewu smiled and denied, "They are all proper people, and the units are also proper units, but they don't do things that violate regulations. Don't worry about this."

Dong Wenxue looked at Li Xuewu for a while, then turned to change the bait, and urged, "Using people, I won't talk about you. In terms of goods, you must never follow Guandong's old path."

"Understood."

Li Xuewu himself didn't think about taking Guandong's wet shoe path; business isn't done that way.

After the two finished talking, others also came over to chat, changed positions from time to time, and didn't have the mind to fish.

Yang Zongfang was very serious. When Li Xuewu sat over, he just took a look.

"What's wrong? Finished talking?"

"Mm, chatted."

Li Xuewu didn't care about Yang Zongfang's wording, but focused on fishing like him.

Yang Zongfang looked at Li Xuewu, then said, "Your heart is not clean, your hands must be steady, you can't keep looking at the bait."

"No way, young people."

Li Xuewu used a self-deprecating tone, but in Yang Zongfang's ears, there was a feeling of Versailles.

"Mid-year is coming soon."

Li Xuewu started a topic and said, "You have to submit a report to the factory, otherwise you have to choose between secretary and deputy factory director."

"Is that so? I didn't think about it."

I don't know if he really didn't think about it, or if he didn't think about it, Yang Zongfang's face couldn't see the reaction to Li Xuewu's words.

However, the careful Li Xuewu could still find from the shaking of the fish float in the water that this kid was also a person whose heart was not clean.

"Do you have any news in the Rolling Mill?"

"Heh heh, joking?"

In a new environment, there were opportunities everywhere. Wen San'er got this arrangement from Li Xuewu and left Beijing, naturally wanting to make some achievements.

"You don't have to go back in a few days."

Wen San'er figured it out and stood up, saying, "I'll take advantage of these few days to finish the things here, and then we'll go back together. Your Third Aunt has a bad temper, and ordinary people can't persuade her."

After saying this, he thought of something and asked Li Xuewu, "That, I'm staying in Steel City, me and Old Zhang... the two of us?"

"Him."

Li Xuewu winked and said, "Let him be the person in charge, but you have to grasp the business of finance and relationships."

"Understood."

Wen San'er naturally understood Li Xuewu's meaning. After all, they were crossing-river dragons and would always accept questioning and challenges from many aspects.

There was no need to take risks for a false name, and it was not convenient for Li Xuewu to use those people of Old Zhang.

Giving this person-in-charge title made those people more comfortable and gave Old Zhang face.

As for the core business, Wen San'er was very familiar with it; he did this when he was in Beijing.

"Fine, you rest."

Wen San'er waved his hand, looking like he was in a hurry to do things.

Li Xuewu sent him out of the room while instructing, "Ji Weidong is going to talk to those people in a while. You can follow him and tell Ji Weidong, he will help you."

"Got it."

Wen San'er responded hurriedly and went downstairs.

Li Xuewu's arrangement could be said to be drawing the firewood from under the cauldron. Wen San'er understood it and was shocked by Li Xuewu's arrangement.

More shock was given to Li Xuewu's layout. This kid might have started calculating Yu Min and the people behind Yu Min the first time he saw Yu Min and knew about such a large network.

Wen San'er participated in the investigation of this case throughout and also had some understanding of Guandong.

Li Xuewu's current arrangement was actually the business that Guandong was about to conduct after washing his hands and going ashore.

Now Li Xuewu had taken over Guandong's basic plate, which could be considered picking up a big bargain.

The Investigation Department could take away the cake on the plate, but they couldn't take away the needs and relationships on the plate, and they couldn't take away the plate itself.

It seemed Li Xuewu suffered a loss and got some broken ships that couldn't be taken away, but in fact, Li Xuewu himself didn't exert much effort on those goods and money.

In the Steel City Youth Club, Li Xuewu witnessed Steel City's tolerance for the economy.

Someone could put a stall in the club and do business openly.

There could also be fruits like oranges. If there wasn't a complete relationship network, Li Xuewu wouldn't believe it.

Later, through contact with Nie Liansheng and contact with Yu Min, Li Xuewu finally lifted a corner of the mysterious veil of this organization in Steel City and peeked inside.

This peek couldn't move his eyes away. It was too presumptuous, too bold, too damn good.

Such a good foundation, they actually used it to mess around, turning the business that should have been stable into a major case.

Li Xuewu wouldn't allow anyone to waste good things like this. Since they didn't cherish them, he would do it himself.

Steel City, the location is not good, but it has a complete railway network and a waterway network that Li Xuewu must use in the next step.

Secondly, the Steel Mill is in Steel City, which is Li Xuewu's natural advantage; it is very convenient to do anything.

This time, borrowing Ji Weidong's east wind to blow away those people, it was time to arrange for people to take over.

The warehouses are still those warehouses, and the fleet is still those cargo ships, but the people have changed, the way of communication has changed, and there must be rules and positive energy!

And what business is more regular and more positive energy than earning the price difference!

The upstream bears the risk of sales, the downstream bears the risk of purchase, and the middleman is innocent.

Whether there is risk or not has nothing to do with me; I am just an innocent transport middleman determined to earn the price difference.

I have the qualification to enter with the left hand and exit with the right hand, no problem.

Li Xuewu had just closed the door when he heard someone knocking.

He thought it was Wen San'er and the others who had returned, but when he opened the door, it was Wang Shumin standing outside.

"Section Chief Li."

"It's you."

Li Xuewu nodded, didn't move aside, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is there anything?"

"No."

Seeing Li Xuewu didn't mean to let her into the room, Wang Shumin explained with a smile, "Just want to ask if you need any help here. Secretary Dong said you were busy with the case these two days, so let me ask diligently."

"Thank you."

Li Xuewu smiled, indicated the room, and said, "Nothing needed. Just finished talking about things, still have to continue sleeping, otherwise I won't be able to adjust to the time tomorrow."

"Alright."

Wang Shumin just found an excuse to brush her face here, so seeing Li Xuewu didn't want to talk more to her, she had to smile and prepare to leave.

But after seeing the room next door, she added, "That, the woman you arranged, named Tuo Ruifen, has gone home."

"Is that so~"

Li Xuewu asked unexpectedly, "When did she leave? Do Section Chief Ji and Section Chief Xiang know?"

"Yes, it seems Section Chief Xiang took her away for interrogation."

Wang Shumin explained, "After that, she didn't come back. I heard she left after the interrogation was completed."

"Good, I know."

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes, his thoughts turning, but he still said goodbye to Wang Shumin on his mouth.

After closing the door, Li Xuewu paced in the room and thought for a while. The more he thought, the deeper the frown on his forehead became.

But he said himself that he wouldn't participate in the interrogation work of the two, and he didn't know the content.

What Tuo Ruifen confessed had discrepancies with Guan Haishan's self-report on the platform.

This would happen during the interrogation process. After all, no one could guarantee that the content in their memory was all true.

Sometimes memory can also deceive you.

Li Xuewu was also habitually suspicious. This thinking mode was actually very laborious. After all, thinking about everything with a suspicious attitude made his brain a bit tired.

"Heh heh~"

Li Xuewu laughed at himself, thinking he might have thought too much. He shook his head, walked back to the sofa, took the phone, and tried to call Beijing.

This kind of long-distance call depends on luck; it's not that you can get through just because you want to.

Especially this kind of civilian line, it's common not to get through, and it's possible to disconnect while talking.

It was okay today; Li Xuewu got through on the first try.

The family was also worried about Li Xuewu's sudden business trip. For a whole day yesterday and another whole day today, there was no news for two consecutive days, and Liu Yin was about to get anxious at home.

It wasn't that she was afraid Li Xuewu would be in danger, but that mothers think too much, especially about Li Xuewu, who was about to get married.

It's also evil to say that some people happen to have accidents before marriage, and they are all very strange.

Li Xuewu didn't believe this, but he had to understand the old man's mind. He explained the confidential nature of the work to his mother on the phone, and only then did he get past it.

After finishing the call at home, he called the villa again. This time, it was more than ten minutes apart, and he called several times before getting through.

Gu Ning was very surprised by Li Xuewu's call from Steel City to report safety, but it was also very warm.

This feeling was very wonderful, as if she had a vague connection with another person.

Li Xuewu chatted with Gu Ning for a few words and asked with a smile, "Heh heh, did you miss me?"

"Clang!"
