Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1742 This is your last chance
In workshop three, Wang Fa was doing his final inspection. Just as Guo Liang said, the weather was getting hot, so the electrical circuits had to be checked carefully.

Therefore, not only should daily inspections be necessary, but they should also be carried out more frequently.

Only when you see it with your own eyes can you feel at ease.

When Wang Fa was leading his men on patrol, he saw Yang Xiaotao walking towards them step by step with his hands behind his back.

As it was getting close to the end of the shift, everyone had packed up and were waiting to leave.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming, many people greeted him enthusiastically.

Yang Xiaotao also responded with a smile.

After all, there are few rat droppings, and Yang Xiaotao is very confident about this.

"Mr. Yang!"

"Hello, Mr. Yang!"

"Hello, it's time to get off work and go home and have a rest!"

"Look at you, eat more..."

Yang Xiaotao walked forward while greeting people.

Wang Fa saw Yang Xiaotao coming over and hurried forward, "I told Li Nan earlier that the car is back and we are all here. It's a good opportunity for us to get together tomorrow."

Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "I think we should not come tomorrow, let's do it today."

"today?"

Wang Fa was puzzled, and then he saw Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Today, go home and prepare, and let Xing Jiaqi notify Wei Ge and the others."

"it is good!"

Seeing Yang Xiaotao's affirmativeness, Wang Fa felt that it was probably a matter of time. After all, Yang Xiaotao was the chief designer of the machinery factory, and the pressure on his shoulders was not something that he, as the director, could understand, so he had to take charge of the time.

"I'll have someone go buy some food and ask your sister-in-law to prepare some more food and wine."

Wang Fa was about to leave, but was stopped by Yang Xiaotao, "Brother Wang, please stop by the courtyard and ask them to get some cucumbers and tomatoes."

"Also, use this money to buy more meat."

"Alright, alright, hurry up, and go over there with Li Nan as soon as you're done."

"I'll go back first and ask Xiao Xing to call someone."

Wang Fa said this and ran out happily.

Yang Xiaotao looked at Wang Fa's leaving back, and suddenly felt a little reluctant. Perhaps, after today, it would be difficult for their former group of six to reunite.

After Wang Fa's back disappeared in the workshop, Yang Xiaotao turned around and looked at Li Nan and others.

Listening to the conversation between Wang Fa and Yang Xiaotao, Li Nan felt a sinking feeling in his heart for no reason.

Yang Xiaotao looked the same as usual today, but he always felt that the gazes directed at him were heavier.

This subtle change made his heart beat wildly.

"Brother Wang is still like this, always in a hurry and loves excitement."

Li Nan walked up to Yang Xiaotao and said this, while taking out a cigarette from his pocket. Yang Xiaotao took it and they both lit it up.

"Yes, Brother Wang's temperament has never changed."

"Even if he becomes the director, he is still the original Brother Wang, the Brother Wang who cares about his brothers."

"And we, you, me, Wei Ge, and Xiao Xing, have all changed."

Yang Xiaotao blew out smoke rings, blurring his vision. Li Nan listened and lowered his head to smoke.

At this moment, he seemed to realize something.

in silence.

It was as if the air around me had become heavy and it was difficult to breathe.

Yang Xiaotao in front of him made him feel tremendous pressure for the first time.

They had never felt this way before, when they were brothers.

And now, they are still brothers?

Li Nan suddenly became doubtful and uncertain.

Although hesitant in his heart, his face showed certainty, "Yes, you, me, and everyone else have changed a lot."

"Especially you, we never thought that you would achieve what you have today."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and quickly smoked half of a cigarette. The ash fell to the ground with a puff and was blown away by the wind before it hit the ground, disappearing into the air.

"Behind the achievements are hard work and blood and sweat."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he looked at Li Nan, "Brother Nan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Nan's hand holding the cigarette trembled.

He remembered that he had only been called this by name when Yang Xiaotao entered the factory.

Later, when I found out that the two were less than a year apart in age, I started calling them by their names.

Then, in less than a year, he became a first-level fitter like him. Later, Yang Xiaotao rose like a rocket and became a second-level fitter, then a third-level fitter, and finally even a higher level than the team leader Wang Fa.

From then on, in the gatherings of the six-member group, except for calling Wang Fa, Che Wenwei and Li Wei "brother", the rest of them called him and Xing Jiaqi by their names.

And now, Yang Xiaotao actually called him Brother Nan. This sudden change made him very confused.

"Xiao Tao, you."

"Brother Nan, come with me."

Yang Xiaotao put out the cigarette with his hand and crushed the remaining half of the cigarette in his palm.

"You know, with me, there's no chance."

Li Nan suddenly raised his head and looked at Yang Xiaotao seriously, "You, what do you mean?"

"That's what you mean."

Li Nan bit his lips and his breathing gradually became heavy.

He realized that his secrets had been exposed.

Thinking of the consequences, his face turned pale.

Yang Xiaotao looked at him quietly without saying a word.

In front of him, Li Nan couldn't even jump.

Li Nan also knew that with Yang Xiaotao's terrifying power, not only him but even Zhou Kui was no match for him.

His eyes were fixed on Yang Xiaotao, and his breathing gradually became heavy.

"Is this really what it's like?"

Yang Xiaotao shook his head, and without looking at Li Nan, he waved to the team members behind Li Nan, "Everyone in your team, follow me."

"Brother Nan, this is your last chance."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao stood aside, made way, and looked at everyone quietly.

Many of the team members behind Li Nan looked surprised and didn't understand what was going on.

But some people realized something, looked at Li Nan, saw Yang Xiaotao's determined expression, then gritted their teeth and walked out.

Someone took the lead and the rest followed.

They didn't do anything wrong.

What's more, they had long been dissatisfied with Li Nan's behavior. Originally, they also considered the relationship between Li Nan and Yang Xiaotao, and for the sake of their own iron rice bowl, they did not dare to offend anyone.

But now it seems that Li Nan is simply asking for trouble.

Everyone left step by step, with Li Nan standing at the end, his steps seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't move forward. Finally, Yang Xiaotao shook his head and sighed, walked to Li Nan, put his arm around Li Nan's shoulders, and said, "Let's go!"

Li Nan was like a piece of wood, unable to resist or struggle, and could only be carried out by Yang Xiaotao.

On the way, Li Nan said nothing, but his lips were bitten white.

When the people in the workshop saw this scene, although they felt something was wrong, everyone knew the relationship between Yang Xiaotao and Li Nan, so they didn't think anything of it.

Soon, everyone left the workshop and came to the warehouse of the R&D department under the guidance of the security personnel.

At this time, the interior of the warehouse was divided into independent spaces.

The perimeter of the warehouse had long been controlled by the Security Department.

No unrelated personnel are allowed to approach at all.

When Yang Xiaotao brought Li Nan over, on the other side, Wang Hao brought his men and brought the two brothers Guo Shengjun and Guo Shengli over.

Inside the warehouse, Liang Zuoxin was locking up Lin Hai and Lin Quan, preparing to interrogate them.

Seeing these people, Li Nan's steps softened. If Yang Xiaotao hadn't been supporting him, he would have probably been sitting on the ground.

"Listen, this is your last chance."

Yang Xiaotao's voice rang in Li Nan's ears, and then someone came forward with handcuffs.

Click
After two sounds, Li Nan felt the coldness on his wrist and was instantly frightened.

"What, what are you doing?"

"Why did you arrest me, Yang Xiaotao? Why did you arrest me? Why?"

"Let me go, let me go."

Snapped

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and slapped Li Nan in the face. Li Nan staggered and almost fell to the ground, spitting out blood from his mouth.

However, before he could say anything, he felt his collar being pulled up, and Yang Xiaotao's fierce face stared at him, "Don't you know what you did?"

"Do you really think everyone is stupid?"

"I tell you, speculation and theft of collective property will result in a light sentence, or even a fine."

"Have you figured it out?"

With red eyes, Yang Xiaotao lifted Li Nan into the air.

"It doesn't matter if you want to die, but how will your sister-in-law live? What will happen to Meng Meng Liang Liang in the future?"

"When they grow up and know that their father is a thief, a bad man, can they hold their heads up high in front of others?"

"Speak, fucking speak."

Li Nan was hanging in the air, blood flowing from his mouth, but his eyes were wide open.

The beautiful side will hide the cliff behind it.

And when he faces the cliff, fear will surge in his heart.

I had never thought that this moment was so real.

What I didn't think was happening before is now right in front of me.

"I"

Li Nan opened his mouth and wanted to continue arguing, but he thought of Guo Shengjun and Lin Quan.

My heart was in a state of panic.

Chen Gong, who was not far away, discovered the situation and quickly ran over to pry Yang Xiaotao's arm.

"Xiao Tao, let go and calm down."

"Don't be like this, calm down, calm down."

Several people around him also stepped forward and quickly put Li Nan down.

Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, then looked at Li Nan whose cheeks were red and swollen.

"As a brother, I'm reminding you one last time."

"This is your last chance."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Nan was taken away.

Yang Xiaotao looked up and looked out the window into the distance, feeling empty in his heart.

I thought I could sacrifice my relatives for the greater good without any pressure.

But when I actually sent my brother in with my own hands, my heart felt like it was being pulled by sawgrass bit by bit.

"You go back first."

Tony Yang walked over, looked at Yang Xiaotao's appearance, and tried to comfort him.

Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "No, I have a party later."

Tony Yang sighed.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the interrogation room in the distance.

Whether he will go alone or with someone else will depend on his performance.

"Director, the machinery factory has already taken action."

Xiao Liu ran over excitedly to report the situation to Yu Zecheng.

During this period, Xiaobo has made many contributions in Guangdong Province and Haojing. His superiors are preparing to transfer him to Tianjin to take charge of the work. During this period, he is participating in training and waiting for assessment.

Xiao Liu, who entered the system with Xiaobo, was stimulated to come here. It was a rare opportunity for him to encounter such a thing, so he was trying hard to show off.

"Have you started yet? Pretty quick."

"What are our plans?"

Yu Zecheng was not excited. He still sat steadily on the chair, holding the gray-green jar in his hand.

Xiao Liu took out a stack of information from his bag and placed it on the table. "Director, we have investigated Lin Shen's interpersonal relationships during this period. In addition to Lin's family, we also found five people who were closely related to him."

"Among them, his childhood friend Li Bin was also a member of the Military Academy. He later joined the Metallurgical Bureau and is now a director."

"The two have a very good relationship. I heard from people in the hospital that they are almost inseparable. In the past, the two of them even traded food coupons around, but there is no evidence."

"We suspect that this Li Bin is most likely Brother Tiger."

"Besides that, the remaining four people are also suspects. We followed the plan and arranged people around them. We didn't alarm them."

Yu Zecheng nodded, and then asked, "Are the comrades in the logistics department ready?"

"We are ready. The head of logistics has also arranged for Director Xue to be in charge of the investigation, which has been a great help to us."

"Help? Haha!"

Yu Zecheng smiled and said, "They don't want to make the family look too ugly."

"But this is no small matter."

Yu Zecheng said this, and then asked about Lin Shenlai, who was the core of this operation, and only through him could more people be dug out.

"Nothing can go wrong here, Lin Shen."

"Don't worry, Lin Shen is already under surveillance."

Xiao Liu explained the arrangements, and Yu Zecheng nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad. The arrangement is very appropriate."

"Let him realize that he is being monitored, but give him a chance to escape, so that we can find out who is behind this."

After Yu Zecheng finished speaking, he put down the jar and glanced at Wangcai who was dozing off nearby.

This is his secret weapon.
