Life 1984

Chapter 155 Finding People 【Subscription】

Li Yunhai followed the gay man to another separate office.

The gay man closed the door and asked Li Yunhai to sit down.

Li Yunhai now needs to figure out a few things. First, which department sealed Shi's company?

Is it the police?Or an anti-smuggling team?Or a bailiff?

Where are the Shi brothers and sisters?
No matter what, Li Yunhai must first find the Shi Wentao brothers and sisters, and if possible, he must find a way to bail them out.

The gay men were quite polite to Li Yunhai. After all, Li Yunhai was a section chief.

"Chief Li, you arrived in time!" The male comrade smiled slightly, "We took the actions yesterday, and you arrived today."

Li Yunhai spoke calmly, handed a cigarette to the other party, and said in a helpless tone: "It's a coincidence. To be honest, the man doing business in Xizhou is a friend of mine. He hit me I paid a sum of money for the goods to Shi's Company, but as a result, there has been no delivery, and as of yesterday, I couldn't even get through the phone. With a payment of several million, could he not be in a hurry? In desperation, he found me and told me I happened to be on a business trip to Huacheng, so I will go there on his behalf."

He asked again: "Comrade, what exactly happened to Shi's company? Does it matter?"

The gay man nodded calmly and said, "I don't know exactly what the problem is with Shi's company. The one who seized them was the Customs Anti-Smuggling Team."

Li Yunhai thought about it, thinking that Shi's company has been here for so long and is only two miles away from the police station. It is impossible to say that the comrades at the police station are completely unaware.

And this gay man was talking to himself alone, which shows that there must be something going on here.

Li Yunhai wanted to think about it, but did not go into details, but continued to ask about the whereabouts of the Shi family.

The gay man said that the people in the factory over there were all taken away by the anti-smuggling team. You can go over there and find out.

Li Yunhai asked him where the case was now.
Normally, anti-smuggling cases have the following basic procedures: case acceptance, case filing, investigation, case solving, and investigation completion.The customs anti-smuggling department shall review the case materials immediately after accepting the case.Cases that do not fall under its own jurisdiction should be transferred to the agency with jurisdiction within 24 hours.

After review, if it is believed that there are criminal facts that require investigation of criminal liability and it is within its own jurisdiction, the case shall be filed; if it is deemed that there are no criminal facts or the circumstances of the crime are obviously minor and there is no need to pursue criminal liability, the case shall not be filed.

Even if a case is filed, Shi Wentao and Shi Wenyin are only suspects because they are still in the investigation stage.

Li Yunhai came at the right time.

He must clear the case and release the Shi brothers and sisters before the investigation of this case is concluded.

I can't ask for any more information here.

Li Yunhai asked the other party where the anti-smuggling team was and left the police station.

He took a taxi without stopping and came to the anti-smuggling team.

Fortunately, he has the identity of the section chief of the Information Section of the Commerce Bureau, otherwise, it would be difficult to even enter the gate.

Li Yunhai asked the person in charge and learned that the Shi family were indeed suspects and were being detained in the team, waiting for investigation and interrogation.

Li Yunhai asked to see Shi Wentao, but he was refused, saying that he would not come unless a lawyer came.

lawyer?

The flower city is so big that Li Yunhai doesn’t even know a lawyer!
Li Yunhai has no acquaintances in Huacheng.

acquaintance?

Is Guo Wanhua an acquaintance?

Li Yunhai found the phone and called Guo Wanhua.

Fortunately, Guo Wanhua is still in Huacheng.

After receiving the call, the servant asked Li Yunhai to wait a moment, and then called his wife to answer the call.

After a while, a lazy sound of feeding came from the other side of the phone.

"Mrs. Chen, hello, I am Li Yunhai."

"I know it's you. Otherwise, the servant wouldn't have pulled me up from the bed. I told her to wake me up whenever it's your call."

Li Yunhai was moved and said, "Mrs. Chen, are you taking a nap? I'm sorry to disturb you."

"It's okay, I'm already awake. I'm glad you called me. Is there something wrong with you? It's not because you miss me, right? Geez!"

"Mrs. Chen, I'm in Huacheng. Can I see you?"

"Oh? You came to Huacheng? Okay! Where are you?"

"Where do you live? Is it convenient for me to see you? How about we make an appointment?"

"Well, come on, I'll tell you the address."

Guo Wanhua lives in Dongshankou, where old foreign-style houses are concentrated.

Li Yunhai took a taxi.

Dongshan was only developed for a century, but it was built with Guigang, Xinhepu and Meihua Village as the core, making it the largest group of Western-style villas in Huacheng. It became a gathering place for overseas Chinese and political dignitaries at that time, and was famous for its "Dongshan Western-style Buildings" hidden in the busy city.

Li Yunhai came to the vicinity of Qiming [-]nd Road and found Guo Wanhua's residence based on the house number.

On Qiming Road, there is a small red brick building that combines Chinese and Western styles. It is separated by Qiming [-]st, [-]nd, [-]rd, and [-]th roads and four small roads. Tall and lush trees are planted on both sides of each small road.

The greenery and red bricks complement each other, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. When you walk in here, you will feel like you are in a paradise.

Everyone knows two sentences:

"The lady from Xiguan, the young master from Dongshan."

"If you have money to live in Xiguan, you have the right to live in Dongshan."

From these two popular sayings, it is not difficult to imagine that dignitaries lived here before.

These all-Western buildings stand side by side and are magnificent.Through the glazed tile hard roof, red brick plain walls, and lush old trees in the garden, people can still recall the grandeur and elegance of this place back then.

Li Yunhai walked to the iron door and knocked on the door.

The servant walked up to the cat, looked outside, and asked who it was.

Li Yunhai stood up straight and said: "Hello, I am Li Yunhai, I have an appointment with Mrs. Chen."

The servant then opened the iron door and invited Li Yunhai into the courtyard.

The yard was beautiful, but Li Yunhai had no time to take it into consideration and followed the servant to the living room.

The house is decorated in European style, with large sofas, tall crystal chandeliers, and a European-style fireplace on the wall, but it is not used.

Li Yunhai did not see Guo Wanhua in the living room.

The servant asked Li Yunhai to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

After a while, I saw Guo Wanhua, wearing a long black dress with suspenders, walking down the stairs.

She is tall and graceful, standing like a slender willow tree, elegant and straight.When moving, it is like willow branches dancing in the wind, graceful and sentimental.Her face is beautiful, her skin is fair and delicate, and she seems to be radiant at any time.Those eyes were crystal clear and as deep as black stones, revealing a hint of nobility and mystery.

Guo Wanhua walked up to Li Yunhai, stretched out her slender hand, and smiled gently: "Mr. Li, we meet again."

"Hello, Mrs. Chen!" Li Yunhai stood up and shook her hand.

Her hands were so cold.

"Please take a seat." Guo Wanhua exudes a charming aroma, fresh and elegant, from the inside to the outside.

After she sat down, she told the servant: "Wang Ma, bring some fruit snacks."

Wang Ma agreed.

Li Yunhai repeatedly said there was no need to bother.

He did not dare to waste time and said to Guo Wanhua: "Mrs. Chen, I am here to ask you for something. I am not familiar with the place in Huacheng, and the only acquaintance I think of is you."

Wang Ma brought a large plate of fruit snacks and placed it on the coffee table.

Guo Wanhua picked up an apple, peeled it slowly with a knife, and asked: "What's the matter? Don't tell me."

Li Yunhai then told about the investigation of Shi's company.

Guo Wanhua peeled the apple very quickly, peeling the whole apple without breaking the skin.

She pinched the two ends of the apple with two fingers of her right hand and handed it to Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai had no choice but to take it sideways and say thank you.

Guo Wanhua put down the knife and said: "I still have some connections in Huacheng. Let me help you find out. Did you come to Huacheng alone? Did you come here just for this matter? Have you found a place to live?"

Li Yunhai said that Lin Zhi and I came together and had already stayed at the White Swan Hotel.

Guo Wanhua pursed her lips and smiled, not showing her teeth: "Well, I forgot that you have a little girlfriend who is inseparable. Why didn't you bring her to my place with you?"

Li Yunhai said that Lin Zhi was in the hotel, and that the Shi family were now detained in the anti-smuggling team, and a lawyer was needed to see them. I wonder if Mrs. Chen knew any lawyer?
Guo Wanhua took out a tissue, wiped her hands and said don't worry.

She stood up and walked to Li Yunhai and sat down.

Li Yunhai turned around and saw that the phone was beside him.

He quickly moved his butt and gave way.

Guo Wanhua picked up the phone and dialed a number, and someone answered quickly.

"Lawyer Zhang, this is Guo Wanhua. Are you free now? Okay, please come to my residence. Bye."

Guo Wanhua didn't say any unnecessary nonsense. After hanging up the phone, she said to Li Yunhai: "Lawyer Zhang is a well-known scholar and lawyer in the mainland's judicial circles. With his intervention, you will definitely be able to meet your friend."

In the early 80s, my country's lawyer system had just been restored and it was a new thing. It was easy for lawyers to become famous, especially famous lawyers. Even those with business connections respected lawyers very much.

Because in the eyes of some officials, lawyers are here to find fault and find fault.Lawyers generally understand the details and explanations of the law better than many legal professionals.

Li Yunhai felt a little embarrassed when he saw her staring at him, so he smiled.

Guo Wanhua pursed her lips and smiled: "Isn't the apple I peeled delicious?"

Li Yunhai laughed, picked up an apple and ate it, finishing one apple in just a few strokes.

Guo Wanhua smiled brightly, peeled another orange for him to eat, and said, "You and Shi's Company are just a cooperative relationship. Are you so nervous about them?"

Li Yunhai said seriously: "They and I are also friends."

Guo Wanhua's beautiful eyes flashed and she said: "If one day I am in jail, will you run around to save me for me?"

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "Mrs. Chen, how is this possible? Besides, your husband is very capable, so it's not my turn to take action."

But Guo Wanhua asked persistently: "I just ask you, will you run for me?"

Li Yunhai said of course, you are also my friend.

Guo Wanhua smiled, her smile extremely charming.

Her clothes are simple, gentle and quiet. Although she is no longer youthful, her face is very beautiful, vaguely revealing the unparalleled charm of the past. It should be said that in her 30s, she looks more mature. In fact, she is completely She does not show her age, has firm skin, is extremely charming, and is considerate, which is something that young women do not have.

Lawyer Zhang came very quickly. He is a clean young man, about 35 years old, with a forehead full of wisdom. His hair is neither long nor short. He is wearing a blue suit and a white shirt. He is neat and elegant. Be courteous and elegant.

"Hello, Mrs. Chen!" Lawyer Zhang walked in and bowed slightly to Guo Wanhua.

Guo Wanhua invited him to take a seat and told him about Li Yunhai.

Lawyer Zhang then asked Li Yunhai about the situation of the Shi family.

Unfortunately, Li Yunhai didn't know much.

Lawyer Zhang pondered for a moment and said that he needed to meet with the client first before he could decide what to do next.

Guo Wanhua nodded gracefully and said, "In that case, let's go to the anti-smuggling team now!"

She asked the driver to prepare the car and asked Li Yunhai and Lawyer Zhang to ride there together.

The three of them came out together, and the driver had already driven the car out of the garage.

Lawyer Zhang sat in the passenger seat.

Li Yunhai had no choice but to get into the back seat with Guo Wanhua.

He originally just wanted to ask Guo Wanhua to help hire a lawyer, but he didn't expect that Guo Wanhua was so eager for justice that she actually went there in person. This moved Li Yunhai.

Rolls-Royce was considered a rare luxury car in Hong Kong in the 80s, let alone in the mainland.

On Huacheng Street, such luxury cars are almost the only ones.

Coupled with the unique license plate number, everyone knows that the person riding this car must be a wealthy businessman from Xiangjiang.

When the traffic police see it, they will salute the car.

When we arrived at the anti-smuggling team, we didn’t even need to get out of the car to register. The guard let us go as soon as he saw the car.

Li Yunhai recalled that when he came here before, he was interrogated by the guards, and he couldn't help but sigh.

With Lawyer Zhang here, Li Yunhai and the others successfully met Shi Wentao.

Although Shi Wenyin is also on the anti-smuggling team, Li Yunhai and the others can only see one person at a time.

When Shi Wentao saw Li Yunhai, he was more shocked and moved than happy!
He never dreamed that the first person to come to see him would be Li Yunhai.

"Mr. Li!" Shi Wentao shouted excitedly, "Why are you here?"

Li Yunhai coughed lightly and said, "I called your number yesterday but didn't get through, so I guessed that something was wrong with you, so I rushed here overnight."

Shi Wentao was so moved that his eyes turned red and he was speechless for a moment.

Li Yunhai introduced Lawyer Zhang to him.

Shi Wentao perked up and said hello, Lawyer Zhang.

Lawyer Zhang took out a pen and paper and began to ask questions.

After learning that Shi Wentao was a Taiwanese businessman, Lawyer Zhang felt relieved again.

Shi Wentao said that Shi's company is headquartered in Taiwan and is a well-known company in the local area.His parents both worked in Taiwan, and they probably didn't know that something had happened to their brother and sister, so he asked Li Yunhai to make an international long-distance call to his father.

After 1979, my country's postal and telecommunications departments successively formulated management measures for cross-strait mail and phone calls, and adopted a series of practical steps and measures.

By 1984, cross-strait relations had eased a lot. The number of Taiwanese businessmen coming to the mainland to invest and participate in the Canton Fair was also increasing day by day. Postal and phone calls between the two sides were relatively free.

Li Yunhai wrote down the phone number and said I would call him later.

Lawyer Zhang asked Shi Wentao, are all the products sold by Shi's company legitimate?Is there any smuggling?If so, are the circumstances serious?
He also specifically stated that I am now your defense lawyer and I am speaking for you. You must tell the truth to me before I can defend you.

Shi Wentao said that everything he did was legitimate business.

All goods come through customs in the name of used hardware.

Lawyer Zhang was surprised and asked: "In that case, why did the anti-smuggling team seize your factory?"

Shi Wentao said he didn't know either. He had been in this business for two years and had never had any trouble.

Lawyer Zhang asked Shi Wentao again if he had offended anyone?

Shi Wentao said that as business people, we pay attention to being friendly and making money. Under normal circumstances, we will not offend others.

Lawyer Zhang asked him if he had anything to hide?

Shi Wentao hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "You must also know that if our goods pass the customs, if there is really nothing wrong with them, then once the high tariffs are paid, these scrap hardware will have to be sold at a high price. So there is somewhat of an inside story, but it has been cleared through customs. At least on the surface, our accounts can withstand inspection."

Although he spoke tactfully, Lawyer Zhang understood and said: "As long as there are no problems with the account books, we can win the case. The anti-smuggling team cannot continue to pursue the case. If they dig deeper, they will find their own people."

Li Yunhai asked Shi Wentao: "You and Sister Shi were in there, didn't you suffer? Did they use special means to interrogate you?"

Shi Wentao said no, the trial has not started yet, and he has no idea what the situation is now.

Guo Wanhua suddenly said: "Could it be that your colleagues reported you?"

Shi Wentao said that this is also possible. There are several companies doing business in this area, and most of them are businessmen from Hong Kong and Taiwan.And Shi's company is the largest.

Especially after getting to know Li Yunhai, Shi's company received several big orders one after another and made a lot of money.

If there is a large amount of goods coming in and out among colleagues, others will definitely see it and feel jealous in their hearts.

If Shi Wentao can really be defeated this time, then Li Yunhai will have no choice but to find someone else to cooperate.

The business that used to belong to Shi's company will be divided up by other peers.

Li Yunhai has also encountered such jealousy and reporting, and is deeply touched by this.

Several people finished talking.

Shi Wentao was taken away.

Guo Wanhua asked lawyer Zhang: "In this case, can the person be released on bail first? Then file a lawsuit?"

Lawyer Zhang closed the notebook and said, "I'm going to talk to their leader. You guys wait for me outside."

The three of them left the meeting room.

Lawyer Zhang went to find the leader of the anti-smuggling team.

Li Yunhai and Guo Wanhua had no choice but to come to the lounge and wait.

Guo Wanhua suddenly asked: "How much does it cost to cooperate with the Shi family?"

Li Yunhai didn't hold anything back and told him the price of the goods.

Guo Wanhua smiled softly and said, "That's cheap enough! Even if I look for connections, I can only get this price."

Li Yunhai asked: "Mrs. Chen, can you also get those second-hand computers and those used copy machines?"

Guo Wanhua said yes, but our main business is engineering machinery. For those ordinary machines, I also find friends to buy them.You have already cooperated with the Shi family, so keep looking for them to purchase goods!
Li Yunhai thought to himself that this was also a line that might be useful in the future.

Guo Wanhua suddenly coughed a few times.

Li Yunhai asked with concern: "Last time I came to Xizhou, you accidentally got sick. Are you still not well yet?"

Guo Wanhua stroked her heart with one hand, waved it gently with the other, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay, the weather has been changing a lot recently. It's hot during the day and cold at night. I like to sleep with the air conditioner on and sleep alone, so these two It feels a little uncomfortable again.”

She looked at Li Yunhai with her big and lively eyes and said, "You really care about people. Your girlfriend will definitely be very happy if she follows you."

Li Yunhai touched his chin, unable to accept this.

Guo Wanhua suddenly let out a faint sigh, which seemed to be full of hatred.

Li Yunhai heard it. Although Guo Wanhua married a rich man, her husband was already a pear tree, and she was still a begonia flower that had just bloomed. The relationship between husband and wife can be imagined.

Guo Wanhua is at her best age as a woman. Going to the mainland to run a business alone, loneliness and boredom are definitely inevitable.

The two of them looked at each other, and Li Yunhai moved away immediately, not daring to look at this vixen-like woman.

　First, ask for a monthly ticket.
