Siheyuan: Kill Han Qingkui, Tian Zao is entangled with me

Chapter 64 The truth behind the surge in food prices

"Sister, that's not right! I remember Dayong was from Jing County, Hengshui. He once called Ma Que Lao Dang, which I thought was quite funny. But Zhou Ping also called him that once, and I became suspicious. I am familiar with the accent of Handan. She definitely can't be from Handan."

"Zao'er, are you sure?"

"Of course I can, I have a photographic memory!"

Zong Xiangfang heard every word of their conversation. He never expected that this half-grown girl had such ability. It would be a good opportunity if she could be included in the tracking team.

He knew there was no point in staying any longer. Zhou Ping inside must have been alarmed and might contact him as soon as possible.

When Zheng Chaoyang was driving Bai Ling past the Drum Tower, he picked up Zong Xiangfang.

"How about it?"

"People from the Outer District 5 Police Station had already set up surveillance near Zhou Ping's home, so I left."

"Set up surveillance? Why are you in such a hurry to set up surveillance?"

"Who knows them? Not only are there so many flaws, but even I can tell at a glance that there are spies inside. How can I not guess? I guess it's futile for them to do this."

On the way, Zong Xiangfang told the two people about his conversation between Tian Zao and Li Hongying.

"Who? What did you say that girl's name was?"

"Zao'er, I heard that the director of the street government called her that. What's wrong?"

"That's the girl Tian Zao, right?"

Bai Ling, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly became sarcastic.

"This girl is quite intelligent. I think she can be developed into a member of our tracking team."

"Xiang Fang, are you serious?"

"I'm serious. Her ability may be considered unorthodox in general departments, but it is indeed our most scarce talent right now. Do you know her?"

"It's more than just an acquaintance, there's also a relationship!"

"Comrade Bai Ling, how can you slander someone's innocence for no reason? I just saved her and didn't even say a few words to her."

"Hey, can you explain it to me?"

Zong Xiangfang finally understood that the relationship was quite complicated!
"Chaoyang, take a look! I think good seedlings should not be buried."

"I understand. I'll go ask her what she thinks later."

Instead of being an activist with no money and no identity, it is better to go to the Municipal Bureau.

"This little girl has a dozen little beggars under her command, maybe they can help you."

"So many? Tell the truth, have you been planning on targeting them for a long time?"

"Well, originally I was planning to send them to literacy classes and then introduce them to work in a steel mill."

"If what you say is true, these kids are meant to be trackers, not workers."

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao appeared. A few children ran by not far away, including Dayong and a few others. However, it seemed that someone was following them, and they looked ferocious and evil.

The jeep drifted and caught up, blocking the servants who were chasing it.

"What do you do?"

"It's the police, go!"

Zong Xiangfang was quite fast and blocked several servants, who started to wrestle with each other.

Zheng Chaoyang was no longer the weakling he used to be. He knocked down a servant with one punch.

Finally, a few of the ten or so servants ran away, and the rest fell to the ground groaning.

"The police beat someone!"

"You deserve it, you deserve to be beaten!"

"They are all employees of those grain stores. I've seen them before!" So they were sent by the grain stores to capture those kids?

"Dayong, why are they chasing you?"

"Brother Yong put a mark outside their shop. If their boss Shang finds us, he will arrest us and take us back!"

"Brother Zheng, we saw clearly today that not only has the price of grain gone up, but there is no grain left to sell in the grain store. But they are secretly transporting grain out of the city in the backyard!"

"Oh, you're playing tricks! Transferring money from one hand to the other? Then you raise the price of grain abruptly, and then transport it there to sell it, right? That's really shady!"

"Police comrades, they are trying to kill us civilians! Beat them to death, beat them to death!"

"Don't move, everyone, step back. These profiteers are just trying to make money from the country's misfortune. We should not fall for their tricks. Beating people is against the law. Xiang Fang, call for support! Bring all of them back to the police station and interrogate them thoroughly."

Not far away, the boss surnamed Shang witnessed his shop assistant being knocked to the ground by Zheng Chaoyang. He was helpless and could only turn around and head towards the Sijiu City Chamber of Commerce.

Hao Pingchuan brought his men over and took all the guys involved back.

On the other side, Duomen returned to his courtyard. Just as he sat down to drink tea, he heard a fall behind him. "Ouch, what happened? Chao'er, Chao'er! Come out quickly!"

"Shi Niang, Shi Niang, what's wrong with you? Shi Niang!"

Geng San and his wife also came out after hearing the noise, "Don't move, let me do it!"

"What are you standing there for? Go find a doctor!"

Zhang Chao responded, turned around and ran out, and soon came back with Zheng Chaoshan and Qin Zhaodi.

"Why did you faint for no reason?"

Qin Zhaodi was looking at the layout of the courtyard.

It's right next door, so can't he hear everything that happens in Zheng Chaoshan's yard clearly?
"What happened to Shi Niang?"

"I don't know either! I just said I was thirsty and came out to drink some water, that's all!"

"She has hypoglycemia caused by long-term malnutrition. Give her a bowl of sugar water."

"Let me do it! What can you men do?"

Mrs. Geng San took the dishes and poured a bowl of sugar water, then slowly fed it to Du Shiniang.

"Oh, I'm awake! Doctor Zheng, thank you! This is the consultation fee."

"We're all neighbors, we'll see each other sooner or later. Go buy some food for your wife! Master Duo, do you have any vacancies?"

"Oh, what a coincidence! Chaoyang said he wanted to rent a room for a colleague in the bureau and asked me to keep one room for him. So there was only one room left."

"Really? That's fine. Didn't your bureau arrange dormitories?"

"Oh, there's only room for a bed there, and the bed is so hard!"

Zheng Chaoshan nodded in understanding and looked at Qin Zhaodi behind him apologetically.

"This is our new nurse Qin."

"Hello, hello! Doctor Zheng, aren't there several empty rooms in your hospital?"

"Okay, let's go back first."

Zheng Chaoshan had thought about letting Qin Zhaodi live in his house, but after the incident with Wan Linsheng last time, he never mentioned it again.

Taking Qin Zhaodi back to the next courtyard, he brought up the old matter again, "Zhaodi, I have a few empty rooms here, how about..."

"I listen to Dr. Zheng!"

It will all work out!
When Dayong and his companions followed Zheng Chaoyang and his group back to the Public Security Bureau to take their statements, Zheng Chaoyang mentioned the matter of Tian Zao.

"Dayong, are you from Jing County, Hengshui?"

"Yes! My sister Zao told you, right? What's wrong?"
