Chapter 1143 is truly a huge irony.
Chapter 1143 is truly a huge irony.
Liang Guodong, Wang Senlin, and Li Guangfu looked ashen-faced. They looked at Yu Hongliang and deeply regretted their decision to choose such a drunkard as a business partner.
The hardware factory used to specialize in making various machine tool parts, and over time, those scrap parts piled up like mountains.
Liang Guodong and Yu Hongliang were immediately intrigued. If these scrap parts were sold as scrap metal, they could fetch at least ten or twenty thousand yuan. But how could they get them out of there?
They then brought in the storekeeper, Wang Senlin, and the driver, Liu Guangfu. Wang Senlin was usually quiet and unassuming, but he wasn't a good person either. He often used a lunchbox to pack these scrap parts out, and each time he could sell them for two or three yuan.
He kept shuffling things out every day, but the mountain of scrap didn't decrease at all. Over the past two years, he had made quite a bit of dirty money, totaling more than two thousand yuan.
So when Liang Guodong and Yu Hongliang found him, he didn't want to get involved with them. But Liang Guodong and Yu Hongliang had already figured out his situation. After a few drinks and a tightening of the noose, Wang Senlin had no choice but to agree.
Liu Guangfu readily agreed, but raised a question: where would they sell the goods? Everyone turned to look at Wang Senlin, who sighed inwardly and had no choice but to bring up Ma San'er, the sales expert. Thus, this criminal gang that stole and resold state-owned goods was officially established.
Don't underestimate their power. Yu Hongliang clearly remembers in his notebook that in just over two years, the hardware scrap they resold was worth more than 21,000 yuan just as scrap. That's scrap price. If the government recycled these things and melted them down in factories, their value would increase more than a hundred times.
Da Bao closed the notebook with a serious expression. It felt as if a stone was stuck in his chest. The amount of scrap metal that just a few people had been reselling over two years was several times greater than the total weight of all the crude steel produced across the country during the Great Leap Forward. It was truly a huge irony...
Da Bao then arranged for the work group to arrest everyone at the scrap metal recycling station. Such a large quantity could not possibly be processed domestically, because no one would sell such valuable items as scrap metal. It was conceivable that they must have been shipped overseas.
Seeing the serious expression on Da Bao's face, Lu Jianbang patted the back of her hand and said in a low voice.
"You have succeeded. You have enabled the people to expose these corrupt officials and prevent such incidents from happening again. This is a victory."
Da Bao nodded silently. It wasn't that he didn't understand the principle, but he felt sorry for the people. Anyone who had lived through that era knew that the country had a hard time, and the people had a hard time too. When walking on the street, you had to pick up even a screw and hand it over to the authorities. But these parasites actually sold tons and tons of steel as scrap? What a spendthrift!
Wang Qiuju was furious. She directed the young workers to escort the thieves to the center of the platform. Many iron plaques had been made, and their names had already been written on them, so there was no fear of extravagance. After the iron plaques were used this time, the paper on them would be torn off, and a layer of white paper would be pasted on for the next use.
Ma San'er was also brought onto the stage. This guy was incredibly audacious; he initially thought Zhang Shuqin was going to expose his knife attack, but instead, he revealed his theft of state property.
This guy is a tough nut to crack. He was brought up on stage, all tied up, and he gritted his teeth and said fiercely to Zhang Shuqin.
"You old slut, just you wait! When your third uncle comes out, he'll definitely take advantage of your daughter, and he won't spare you either!"
Zhang Shuqin trembled with fear, while Yu Hongliang stared at Ma San'er in disbelief. Only then did he regret letting the wolf into his house.
Wang Qiuju was panting heavily. This bastard was too arrogant. She swung her belt and whipped Ma San'er twice, leaving two bloody welts on his face.
"You bastard, you still want to get out? For the crimes you committed, you deserve at least ten years in prison."
Ma San'er laughed loudly, glancing sideways at Zhang Shuqin, and said through gritted teeth.
"You old slut, ten years is ten years. You and your daughter should live well. From now on, your lives are on a countdown. Enjoy this time."
The boss slammed his fist on the table in anger. This son of a bitch was too arrogant. But he was very cultured and had a deep mind. Even so, he didn't utter a curse.
Da Bao slowly stood up, grinning wickedly as he circled around from behind the table. Lu Jianbang was taken aback. After all, he was his uncle, and upon seeing Da Bao's smile, he knew that Da Bao had murderous intent.
However, Lu Jianbang wouldn't stop him, and even if he tried, he couldn't. Everyone who knows him knows that once Da Bao gets into this mood, he won't give face to even the Emperor himself.
The boss was taken aback and was about to call out to Da Bao, thinking that Da Bao was going to personally beat up Ma San'er, which was unnecessary.
Lu Jianbang leaned close to her ear and whispered something.
"Don't worry about it. This kid has murderous intent. Ma San is finished. Nobody can save him."
The big boss paused, turned to look at Lu Jianbang, then looked at the handsome Da Bao. The father and son looked like they were made from the same mold, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Is this child so murderous? Jianbang, it seems he doesn't inherit this trait from you, but from Wenping."
Lu Jianbang thought for a moment and nodded in deep agreement. In their whole family, when it came to being ruthless, the first one should be Old Master Lu, followed by Lu Liye. As for himself, when it came to being heartless in the whole family, he couldn't even make it into the top five.
Da Bao approached Ma San'er and removed the iron plaque from his neck. Ma San'er looked up with a sigh of relief, chuckled, and said...
"Thank you so much, sir. Don't worry, I, Ma San'er, will definitely atone for my crimes. Just let me go, and I can tell you a lot..."
Da Bao reached out to stop him, then slowly straightened up and said condescendingly.
"I have absolutely no interest in what you're trying to tell me. I heard what you said to that woman earlier. I'm curious, I just want to ask you one question: Aren't you afraid of dying?"
Ma San'er chuckled obsequiously.
"Young leader, you must be joking. It's just stealing something, is it really worth dying for?"
At this moment, everyone on and off the stage was watching Da Bao. Da Bao lifted his shirt, pulled out a gun from his waist, and with a soft click, a bullet was chambered.
Da Bao pressed the gun against Ma San'er's forehead and said coldly.
"Come on, repeat what you just said to that woman. I want to hear it carefully."
Ma San'er remained unfazed and chuckled as he spoke.
"Boss, I was just joking..."
Da Bao looked at him with disdain, waited a while, and then spoke.
“I never joke, and you are not worthy of my joking. Your name is Ma San’er, right? You committed murder with a knife, stole state resources, and funded the enemy across the sea. Now I pronounce you guilty of treason and you shall be executed immediately by firing squad.”
