The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

Chapter 492 Free nationwide travel

The buyer is unreliable when it comes to making money, and he usually procrastinates when writing materials, but he is still able to handle specific tasks.

Soon, Qian Jin was the first to rush back to the Purchasing Section [-].

Registrar Li Xueyao was sent away long ago by Section Chief Chen Guodong.

Li Ming talked about this in the office. He did not directly say that it might be a spy case, but only said that it might be another small gang similar to the Wu Renshuang case.

Compared with the various "three-family villages" and "black shops" in the past six months, he is very disciplined in finding evidence first before doing anything.

"I'm afraid Kuang Zhidao will recognize the people in the security department, so they are not suitable to follow. Moreover, this matter needs to be kept secret, and I can't just find anyone to follow."

Chief Chen reminded: "Where are the people from the Chengdong Public Security Bureau?"

"Many of them are writing inspections. They are so short of people that they will eventually ask us for help with such preliminary investigations."

Qian Jin didn't expect it to be such a task, so he hesitated and asked, "Do I have to keep an eye on him all day long?"

Li Ming smiled and said: "No need. That kind of tracking is a bit difficult. Brother Qian, you haven't received training, and you may expose your target."

"You just need to wait on his way home and record what time he gets home."

Qian Jin felt that the problem was not big and asked: "Do you have any photos? He doesn't know me, but I don't know him either. It's best to have photos to see, I'm afraid I might get the wrong person."

Li Ming took a photo from his bag and gave it to Qian Jin.
"The photos have been prepared. In the next two days, I will think of ways to let you see the real person from a distance to ensure that you will not identify the wrong person."

Qian Jin looked at the photo carefully and said, "The eyebrows are thicker and the complexion is darker. Kuang Zhidao's beard is a good symbol. It is easier to recognize him."

"To be honest, I didn't feel confident just now because I was afraid of ruining your business, but now I feel I have some confidence. I just need to register the time when he comes home, right?"

Li Ming nodded and smiled: "Yes, and it only takes one day a week. Everyone in Corey will help me keep an eye on it for one day."

Qian Jin agreed: "This matter is easy to handle."

The purchasers from the third purchasing department rushed back one after another, and each one assured that there would be no problem and that it would be a trivial matter.

Not to mention that Li Ming helped his fellow buyers a lot, it was time for them to return some favors.

This matter alone is difficult to refuse. It involves attitude issues and is a big issue of right and wrong.

To deal with the buyers, Li Ming had to find Captain Xing of the Chengdong Public Security Bureau.

He and Captain Xing were the only two people in an office of the Chengdong Branch.

He didn't even make excuses, he said bluntly: "Captain Xing, I'm here to ask for your help. Send two people to help me conduct an investigation."

Captain Xing readily agreed: "No problem. Who are you going to investigate?"

Li Ming detailed: "I want to investigate an employee in our factory named Kuang Zhidao."

"In order to investigate the 7.24 series of thefts, we sent someone to his compound to ask. Is there anyone in their compound whose income and expenditure cannot match the situation? Anyone who likes to go out after work, pretends to be unintentional and asks the west wing room Does resident Kuang Zhidao go out on weekends or at night?"

"July 7.24th happens to be the weekend, so it won't be out of the blue to ask this."

Hearing him talk so much, Captain Xing froze in his hand while carrying the water, "Isn't there another major case in your factory?"

Li Ming took the tea cup and said, "It's just a little suspicious for the moment. This person has dealings with the people under me. It's not appropriate for people from our security department to come forward to engage in platooning."

"As far as our relationship is concerned, I will ask someone to investigate later. But you have to tell me what kind of case this is. Your factory is also within my jurisdiction. Don't catch me off guard again! I can't stand it now! Captain Xing sat down and said.

"To others, I would say it was an internal conflict. Someone reported to me that this person was secretly inquiring about my whereabouts. To you, I will tell the truth. Others reported him and said that he had inquired about my last business trip. thing."

"Inquire about the escort!" Captain Xing is also a very vigilant old security officer.

Li Ming nodded, "I asked different people, and it turns out that there is indeed such a thing. It's just a suspicion for now, otherwise I will transfer the case to you."

"I arranged for people to monitor him from the outside when he gets home from get off work every day. I can't send people in to investigate the courtyard where his home is located, for fear of alerting the enemy."

Captain Xing looked solemn and said, "I will go to the platoon personally later. Don't worry, I will investigate as an ordinary security officer."

"Do you have that much time? The amount of inquiries this time is quite large. You have to ask all the nearby compounds, otherwise the residents of the compound where Kuang Zhidao is located will feel strange."

Captain Xing sighed and said: "I might as well go out and engage in the platoon. It's hard to say anything in the branch now."

"That's it." Li Ming couldn't be relieved, "Then I'll have to do it myself. This matter must be kept confidential."

"Understood. As for his financial situation, have you investigated it?"

"At least on the surface, there is nothing wrong with him. When you check the row, you should also carefully ask his neighbors. If you ask about his income and expenses in the name of theft, there should be no flaws."

The two discussed some specific details before Li Ming returned to the security department.

August has just begun, the month of autumn.

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

September 9rd, Saturday evening.

Autumn is here and the weather is getting cooler.

The main house of the small courtyard in the west of the city.

Li Ming came back from get off work and was reading the newspaper. Lou Xiao'e stood behind him and massaged his head.

'my country's nine newly built cotton textile mills were officially put into operation. '

'The employees of Dalian Locomotive Factory built a new [-]-horsepower diesel locomotive. '

'The first boat lift was built in Dongting Lake District. '

'Qidong County commune members resisted drought and secured a bumper cotton harvest. '

Lou Xiao'e chatted: "It's a pity that the Beijing Daily has stopped publishing today, and there is another newspaper missing." It resumed publication in March 67.

Li Ming said disapprovingly: "The Beijing Daily has nothing interesting to read. I'm just sorry that the Beijing Evening News is gone."

"The Beijing Evening News is quite a pity." Lou Xiao'e was busy as she spoke.

For most newspapers, he didn't read the content but only the headlines, and he finished them quickly. "Xiao'e, you should also take a rest."

Lou Xiao'e stopped what she was doing, "I'm not tired. I haven't been busy at home all day, just reading newspapers and listening to the radio."

She used to play the piano and listen to the record player, but she followed Li Ming's advice and stopped doing these two things recently.

"Xiao Ming, my sister and I are still not allowed to leave the courtyard? My sister wants to see her child." Sister Lou Xiao'e has been back in the city for a week.

Li Ming reached out and hugged her, "Things have been fine these two days. Your sister can go out tomorrow, but you are still not suitable."

Lou Xiao'e has always listened to his words, but she is also a little depressed, "Why can my sister go out, but I still can't?"

"Your sister is tanned. She looks a bit like someone who works in the countryside."

"As for you, you are still fair and tender. If you say you are from the countryside, let alone the students, they will not believe you. Even if you ask any passerby on the street, no one will believe you. Either you are suspected of lying or there is something wrong with your identity."

Lou Xiao'e frowned and said, "That's why!"

She was quite cute. Li Ming couldn't help but pinch her little cheek, "What do you want to go out for? There is so much noise on the street, it's better to be at home."

"I've been at home alone for a week, and I'm a little upset." "Aren't your sister and Fu's mom staying with you at home?"

Lou Xiao'e hooked his neck and said coquettishly: "I will miss you when you are not at home!"

"Tomorrow, I will take you out to play. Where do you want to go?"

"Uh! I don't know where to go."

Li Ming said softly: "That's right. It's good that we can stay at home with peace of mind. You didn't see those families in the alley when you were in the countryside. Now that you're back, Mother Fu should have told you."

"You also saw what it was like on the road when I took you back to the city."

Speaking of this, Lou Xiao'e pressed close to him, "Yeah!"

The little beauty in his arms was a little scared, and Li Ming comforted her: "Don't worry, you'll be fine as long as I'm here. As soon as I saw something was wrong in the countryside, I immediately took you back to the city."

He was also glad that the Xiangyanghua Brigade was not in Changping, Daxing or other places, otherwise he would have sent Lou Xiaoe into the tiger's mouth with his own hands.

"Is your factory okay today?"

"It's all under my control. My position in the Security Department has been very stable. No one dares to mess with me now."

“What’s going on these days is so scary.”

"It's okay. They will change their target soon and won't stare at you anymore."

His judgment has always been very accurate. Lou Xiao'e believed in his judgment, but she was still a little curious, "Why?"

Li Ming explained: "Before, their guns were unanimously aimed at you people."

"Now you are finished. Their priority has shifted to identifying the corrupt among their own people. This is harder and more personal."

"To put it simply, they are going to start fighting among themselves."

"A group of friends will compete for fame and fortune after defeating the enemy. This principle is applicable to all countries. These friends will not obey anyone, so they have to struggle."

Lou Xiao'e wondered: "Don't they all say they follow the great teacher?"

Li Ming said casually: "I listen to big things, but not to small things at all. They were asked to write papers, but they are better at it than the other. They have already started fighting over the quota for the preparatory committee."

"As I said just now, they are dissatisfied with each other. It is false and incorrect to criticize the other. They will not be able to stop for a while."

"Ah."

Lou Xiao'e listened carefully to the movement outside, "It sounds like Uncle Fu has returned from Xinjiekou?"

Li Ming smiled and said: "Uncle Fujian has been working hard recently. I receive a lot of things every day."

Since its opening, the furniture store's business of selling furniture has been booming, as has the business of acquiring old items.

The acquisitions mainly received some large wooden products, such as plaques engraved with certain poems and lines.

Useful plaque antiques, Li Ming kept them in his small world.

He literally dismantled shop signs, old furniture and the like that were useless and used them to make new furniture.

Most of the other antiques he received recently were repurchased from junk shops. They were so cheap that the purchase price was calculated in cents.

For example, the purchase price he reported to the junk shop for used books, calligraphy and paintings was 4 cents per catty. The price was high, but it only cost 1 yuan for 1000 catties.

40 yuan, which is the price of an ordinary new bed, is not even a drop in the bucket for Li Ming's net worth.

If he sells a 200-pound wild boar to the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, he can buy 4000 pounds of books, calligraphy and paintings.

With the profits from the middle, people in the junk shop took the initiative to stop the paper-burning soldiers on the street, and used Li Ming's principles of diligence, thrift, innovation and utilization to acquire many books, calligraphy and paintings that would have been burned.

He didn't even count how many pieces he had received; some of the calligraphy and paintings were very exquisitely framed, obviously high-quality products, and he didn't care whether they were genuine or fake.

Anyway, they were bought by the pound, so he just took them away one by one from the scrap shop every day.

It has been shipped continuously for more than half a month, and it only cost him a thousand yuan in total.

The small world space can be placed anywhere and is not easy to break. Li Ming plans to slowly sort out the books, calligraphy and paintings when he has free time in the future.

He is currently practicing calligraphy out of boredom. Then he can observe the calligraphy and paintings left by his predecessors and strive to make further progress.

Lou Xiao'e went to the yard to say hello to Uncle Fu, then returned to the main room, interrupting Li Ming's random thoughts.

"Xiao Ming, Fu Ma has called us for dinner. We have the stir-fried duck gizzards that you like."

Li Ming said with a smile: "I don't want to have dinner, what I want to eat most is you."

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes at him, "It should be fine in two days."

"I'm waiting."

After dinner, Uncle Fu brought dinner to Gao Jiancheng.

Li Ming did not take Lou Xiao'e to the furniture store, where there were too many people talking and could cause trouble. The two went out for a walk near the courtyard.

In Beijing in early September, it almost gets dark at 9 o'clock.

Lou Xiao'e was tired of staying at home. No one around here knew Lou Xiao'e's true identity anyway, and with him protecting her, it was no problem to take a walk.

After walking for a while, Lou Xiao'e whispered: "People on the street feel a little nervous."

"Those soldiers have gone back to eat, otherwise it would still be quite noisy."

"Our place is an old city and a residential area, which is relatively quiet. There are many students visiting from out of town in places closer to the outside of the city."

Lou Xiao'e opened her eyes wide and asked, "Are there really 10 people coming to the capital?"

"It's true! I heard that we are still discussing how to fully reimburse them for travel expenses, food and accommodation. The reception station will be responsible for reception."

Lou Xiao'e discovered a loophole, "There will be someone to receive you when you get off the bus, and someone will take care of their food and accommodation. If they go to all parts of the country, isn't it a free nationwide tour?"

"If nothing happens, it will really be a nationwide tour. However, the reimbursement has to be reimbursed by their hometown. You still have to pay for expenses like buying soda. As long as you don't eat and drink too much, you won't have to pay much."

Lou Xiao'e asked again: "That's not right. There are hundreds of thousands of people, how will they eat and stay?"

Li Ming smiled and said: "Faced with this big problem, the person in charge of the reception station should be one person and two people."

"In the large area of ​​​​the Workers' Stadium, there are residential settlements in Dongdaqiao and Xinzhong Street. There are also residential settlements in Zuojiazhuang and the Agricultural Exhibition Hall in Chaoyang. There are also settlements in Chengxi, Haidian and other places."

"The superiors are now asking local citizens not to go to restaurants to eat. Now restaurants and street canteens are working overtime to cook for people from out of town. Some chefs are busy 16 or 17 hours a day."

"I work overtime like this, and there are long queues at many places to eat. For example, the queues at Jingcheng University, Jingcheng Railway Station, and Yongdingmen Railway Station last for two hours."

Lou Xiao'e is kind-hearted, "The weather is not bad now, but I don't know what to do when it gets cold."
