Chapter 541 The Su Family is Investigated
Zhou Mingxuan was very reliable. The next night, before they went to the cowshed to study, they came to see her first.
"Xiaoxue, I have already done what you asked me to do.
I went to the town to ask someone and confirmed that Su Youcai had indeed done those bad things.
Not only him, but even his uncle is not a good person and has harmed many people.
It's not that he doesn't have a son, he raised Su Youcai as his own son. But he never gave up the idea of having a son over the years, and found many women, hoping that they would give birth to sons for him, but he never thought that after so many years, there was not even a pregnancy signal, and he didn't know if he couldn't have children. "Zhou Mingxuan said.
When Zhao Junhao heard this, he coughed twice and said, "Mingxuan, let's talk about business. It's not appropriate to talk about this in front of Xiaoxue."
Zhou Mingxuan reacted, "Yes, yes, I have already told the director, he has already sent people to investigate the Su family's uncle and Su Youcai.
What they did was not secretive, and it is estimated that there will be results soon."
“I will go to town again in a few days to inquire about the follow-up of this matter.
I will come and tell you how it goes later."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Brother Zhou."
I have to say, it’s really easy to get things done when you have connections in the court. Only a few days had passed since this incident, and the meat hadn’t even been dried yet, but Zhou Mingxuan had already sent good news.
"Xiaoxue, the Su family's uncle and Su Youcai have been arrested. The evidence is irrefutable. They probably can't escape the fate of being shot.
Su Youcai’s parents have also been arrested and will probably spend several years in prison.”
"Why is it so fast? Doesn't it usually take a long time?" Liu Jingxue was a little surprised.
“You know how powerful the Revolutionary Committee is now.
What's more, this was a matter personally assigned by the Chairman of the Revolutionary Committee, so the people below would have no right not to do their best.
In addition, the uncle and nephew of the Su family, either because they were fearless or what, did not know how to be secretive about this matter at all. Not only did they not hide their tails, but sometimes they even boasted about these things outside to show how powerful they were. It was clear that they were right once they were checked.
I estimate that in a few days, the verdicts for these two people will be announced.”
A few more days passed, and the meat in the space was dried two days earlier, but Liu Jingxue did not rush to tell the two of them. After all, in their opinion, the meat was only dried for half a day each time, and it should not be dried so quickly.
After waiting for another three days, the meat was smoked. Liu Jingxue scanned and found that the two had returned home from work, so she ran to their home and told them what had happened.
"It's finished drying so quickly. I thought it would take a few more days."
"Don't you see what month it is? It's so hot, even if you only sunbathe for half a day, it will be done quickly.
I have also smoked the meat." Liu Jingxue said.
"Now that the bacon is ready, when do you plan to send it out?
But now there is a problem. Each of you two has to send a lot of meat to many people. How many kilograms will that add up to?
If this were sent out all at once, it would probably cause a sensation.
If someone comes to investigate and leads us to the Red Star Production Team, it might be inappropriate." Liu Jingxue reminded.
"Xiaoxue, don't worry about this, Mingxuan and I have made arrangements.
The autumn harvest will be in half a month. The team leader has already said that there will be not much work in the fields during this half month. If anyone wants to rest and not work so as to conserve their energy for the autumn harvest, just tell the team leader.
Mingxuan and I had already agreed that for the next half month, we would not go to work. Instead, we would go into the mountains to chop wood and collect mountain products, and also go to the town to mail the meat.
As for every time we went there to send something, we would not go together, but separately, and then disguise ourselves as different people each time to send it.
We will go there very early every time, send the things and come back immediately, without anyone noticing. "
"You guys also dress in disguise?"
“When I was in the compound, the instructor taught me.
If you teach us everything, we will learn everything, but we only know the basics and are not very proficient, but it should be enough to fool ordinary people." Zhao Junhao said modestly.
“I’m afraid we will have to send meat to our families in the future, and it would be much more convenient if we had our own people at the post office.
"Xiaoxue, the counter staff who was in charge of receiving and sending parcels asked the two of us to deliver a message to you. Are you familiar with that lady?" Zhou Mingxuan asked.
Liu Jingxue did not hide it from the two of them, "Sister Jin, I know her quite well.
She was making a deal with me behind closed doors.
Every time I went to send a package, I would bring some meat to her and exchange it for some tickets, such as coal tickets, cigarette tickets, toilet paper tickets, kerosene tickets, etc.
As you know, when I came to the countryside, I didn’t have the monthly ticket, so many things were hard to buy. I didn’t want to go to the black market, so I could only find some reliable people to exchange them.
She has a wide network of contacts and can always get me a lot of tickets.”
Zhou Mingxuan originally thought about whether he could develop that staff member into his own person, but after hearing what Liu Jingxue said, he immediately gave up the idea.
This Sister Jin is Xiaoxue's source of votes. If he develops her into a close associate of himself and Zhao Junhao, that would cut off Xiaoxue's source of votes. He cannot do such a thing as harming his own people.
Let's think of another way. Although it is a little troublesome, at least I can live with my conscience.
Seeing that he asked if she was familiar with Sister Jin, but did not follow up, Liu Jingxue asked, "What do you want to ask Sister Jin?"
"I just want to ask if she is tight-lipped. If she sees someone sending so much meat, will she inquire about the source of the meat and spread the news everywhere?" Zhou Mingxuan changed the topic.
Liu Jingxue thought about it and said, "She wouldn't ask any questions.
I went there to send packages several times, and each time I sent a lot of meat. Then she couldn't help but ask me if I had any way to get meat, and if I could help her get some, and she could exchange it for me with banknotes.
I decided to give it to her only after she repeatedly assured me that she would not tell anyone else.
It’s just that we were doing the transaction at the post office, so her colleagues must have found out.
You all know how much we all need meat. Even so, she didn't sell me out. She just stepped forward to exchange meat for her colleagues.
Although this is safe, I still don't dare to be too unrestrained. I just bring her some meat every time I go to the post office, but I don't dare to take too much."
"You are right. Safety is the most important thing."
As they were talking about various tickets, Liu Jingxue remembered the cold winter here and hurriedly reminded them, "It's too cold here in winter, you have to prepare thick winter clothes and thick quilts.
It would also be best to get a coal stove and some coal for use in the winter.
I also have a coal stove in the cowshed last year, and I have also prepared the coal tickets. I plan to get them after the autumn harvest.
I have extra coal tickets here, I can share them with you, but you need coal stove tickets and industrial vouchers to buy coal stoves. If you don’t have them, I can ask Sister Jin to exchange them for you.”
Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao looked at each other, and Zhou Mingxuan said, "Thick cotton-padded clothes and thick quilts will be sent to us by our family, but we really need you to help us exchange the coal stove and industrial coupons."
“Okay, next time I go to town, I’ll tell Sister Jin and ask her to help me get the tickets.
As for your leather boots, your aunt said she would make two pairs for each of you. The leather is ready-made, so you don't have to worry about it.
If you prepare these things and have enough food, there will be basically no problems this winter.
You don’t have to worry about food. You must have earned a lot of work points this year. The village will give you some, and I will ask that person to buy you some fine grains. That will be enough.”
When Zhou Mingxuan heard this, he hurriedly said, "Xiaoxue, I'm sorry to bother you with the food, coal stove, and coal. Just tell us how much it costs when the time comes."
Knowing that the two were not short of money, Liu Jingxue did not refuse.
"Then come over in the evening, bring back the bacon, and send some to the cowshed."
After explaining these things, Liu Jingxue left.
