Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 843 Collecting Evidence
The news that Li Qifeng was caught was revealed two days later. All the 146 wooden boxes containing money that he had hidden were found by Big Brim Hat.

Several banknote counting machines at the County Agricultural Bank of China counted the money for a whole day and night, and the total number was 29.07 million.

In conjunction with the account books found at Li Qifeng's house earlier, multiple agencies in Wanghai County collaborated and began to distribute principal to members, mainly members who joined later, who happened to be the takers.

Although it is impossible to completely compensate for the losses of members, it is better than nothing. The returned money still gives people hope again, and the chaotic situation is immediately alleviated.

At the same time, through the propaganda of Li Dajiang's three militia members, Li Jiankun, the man who captured Li Qifeng, gave up the matter of dividing the money even though he had the chance to get the money back first. Centering on Qingxidian, the news spread throughout the country. Township.

No matter who it was, they were shocked beyond measure after learning about this situation.

People can't understand what kind of person can treat tens of millions of wealth as if it were nothing.

Even to the extreme of their imagination, they could not imagine that 30 million yuan was nothing to Li Jiankun.

This matter, under the public discussion, turned into an unparalleled noble spirit.

"This kid is amazing. If he wants to split the money, the money will only be enough to compensate him alone. He doesn't split the money and can help countless members recover part of their losses."

Li Jiankun was shocked. When he went to ask for help from his wife, several town leaders smiled awkwardly.

"God knows how many families he saved with such an action. His merits are immeasurable. It would not be too much to erect a monument for him."

"What's going on, Jiankun?" The town leaders were confused.

Don't take it for free, take it with a good meal.

Similar remarks can always be heard around Shitouji Town.

It is no exaggeration to say that in this area, anyone who speaks ill of Li Jiankun is likely to be besieged.

"I really admire this guy!"

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the town leaders came to Lao Li's house to express condolences and sent two banners, one made by the town and one issued by the county.

Well, now people believe that Li Jiankun can help them if something happens.

One book: The advanced individual.

After eating and drinking, Li Jiankun sent them out of the village and walked along the loess road in the village. When passing by a certain location, he heard the cry of a woman in his ears.

"Auntie, everyone, don't be like this. I will definitely help you as much as I can. You must tell me what's going on."

Li Jiankun's profession was quite eye-catching, and those unfamiliar faces noticed him and rushed towards him. At this time, Li Jiankun was sure that they were indeed not from Qingxidian.

The group stamped their feet and looked around. Li Jiankun found that the cry came from the door of Li Jianqiang's house, where many villagers gathered, and they seemed to have some unfamiliar faces.

Inexplicably, Li Jiankun also felt a sense of responsibility. In people's hearts, he seemed to have become a hero who could uphold justice.

"Leader, make the decision for us!"

"Is that the leader?"

Li Jiankun was also confused. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, one of the women with tears streaming down her face grabbed him and knelt down on the ground: "Are you Li Jiankun? Comrade Jiankun, please make the decision for us!"

One book: Selfless.

"Shame!" So Li Jianqiang was very depressed and could only leave it at home and scold him secretly.

...

To be honest, it doesn't feel bad.

Every boy has a hero dream.

"It's like this. Two years ago, Li Jianqiang came to our brigade to recruit workers. He said that he could bring young, agile children to work in Italy to earn foreign exchange, with high wages and ease. My child was said to be attracted by it, and he followed The year before, I would send letters and money back, but the next year there was no news at all. I wondered if something happened to my child..."

"What does this mean? There has been no news from my child since he left with him."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu My poor child is gone, I'm afraid. I often dream about him now."

The situation was not complicated. After hearing what they said, Li Jiankun understood.

"You guys, don't act blindly in front of the leader. I made it clear to you the risks for those who were willing to go there in the first place. Oh, now you come to me if you have problems?"

Li Jianqiang came from behind, and the next words he said were for the town leaders: "Don't you go and ask, except for you guys, which of the other families I took people to didn't get paid? Which one?" Isn’t this the best life in the village?”

This is not false. Li Jiankun has also heard that some young people from other villages brought by Li Jianqiang sent back some foreign exchange. It may not be much money abroad, but in China these days, it is different.

Even before going there, Li Jianqiang made an agreement with those people about the risks, and he believed them.

This was the case in Qingxidian back then.

However, this matter is still irregular.

Can smuggling be legal?

Li Jianqiang is extremely selfish. In fact, his recruitment process can be completely followed, but he needs to pay an advance fee to those who are willing to go - most people cannot afford the cost of going abroad, but it is obvious that he does not Don't want to pad.

If this matter is discussed in detail, it can be characterized as human smuggling.

Li Jiankun was worried that he could not deal with him, but an opportunity came to his door.

He invited these people from other villages to sit at his home, and the town leaders took their leave in due course. Li Jianqiang looked at the backs of Li Jiankun and his party, and cursed: "You, the Pacific police, are so lenient in your management."

But he didn't take it seriously.

In his opinion, this is Zhou Yu's fight against Huang Gai, and one is willing to be beaten while the other is willing to suffer. In the inner courtyard of Lao Li's house, Li Jiankun asked his second sister and younger sister to bring tea, and sat with these people from other villages to learn about the specific matters of smuggling.

If Li Jianqiang is to be convicted of human smuggling, conclusive evidence must be produced.

For example, now, although everyone in Qingxidian knows that Li Jianqiang used smuggling to get people to Italy, no one has participated in it. They don't know how he smuggled people there, and no witnesses or physical evidence can be found.

"We didn't know that. He gathered the people together that day and took them away."

"Yeah, we said we wanted to give it away, but we didn't let it go."

"The only thing we can be sure of is that there are ships on the coast from our side."

"Maybe it's Hulukou, where boating is the most popular."

Li Jiankun held his chin in his hands and pondered. In this case, these parents cannot be witnesses. They also did not witness any of the smuggling process.

"Hulukou, right? I will go there to see if I can find out any news about your children. At the same time, I will find evidence of Li Jianqiang's human smuggling and bring him to justice. I should also be able to learn something from him by then. Information, but you’d better be mentally prepared.”

He doesn't want to give these parents too much hope.

Especially if there is no news from the child after they leave, there is a high probability that they will not make it through.

Smuggling people by sea can take months at a time. Anyone who has watched several documentaries knows that it is an inhumane treatment.
-
Hulukou, about fifty kilometers away from Qingxidian, is both a fishing port and a place where smuggling activities are rampant. It is named after its shape like a gourd.

There was a lingering fishy smell in the air, and the ground was wet and dirty. Li Jiankun walked along the stone road to the stone pier.

"Brother, do you want some fish? The fresh ones just came back this morning."

Li Jiankun waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need it.

Hulukou is actually a natural haven. Now, dozens of fishing boats, large and small, are moored along the pier.

In Li Jiankun's opinion, none of these ships have the ability to go to sea. He guessed that if people boarded the ship from here to go to Italy, they would have to transfer to a larger ship on the way, or the smuggling ship owners would be so bold that he could not imagine.

On this trip, he just wanted to find the smuggling ship owner who had done business with Li Jianqiang.

Find him first, don't act rashly, and leave the rest to Big-brimmed Hat.

Perhaps it was because Li Jiankun was dressed very decently and looked like a wealthy man. Soon, another man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came up to him: "Are you looking for something, brother?"

Li Jiankun felt enlightened, this person was a boat smuggler - the local people usually use "boat smuggler" to describe smuggling.

“We’re not looking for goods, we’re looking for channels,” he said.

"channel?"

"Go to the outside channel."

The guy with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks understood instantly, and said with a smile: "Yes! As long as there is no business in Hulukou that I, Chen Si'er, don't know about, I won't do it, but I can introduce it to you. If you pay an introduction fee, it can be done." No?"

In order to look presentable, Li Jiankun bargained with him about the introduction fee, and finally settled on two hundred yuan.

"Where are you going?" Chen Si'er asked.

"Italy." Li Jiankun added, "Prato."

"Then you have to ask Liu Tuozi." Chen Si'er immediately answered.

"He's the only one? If he's doing a separate business, the price won't be easy to negotiate," Li Jiankun said.

Chen Si'er casually said a few words, saying that the price was the same. This has nothing to do with him.

Through his words, Li Jiankun confirmed the information he wanted: Liu Tuozi should be the only one who took people to Italy by boat.

He is probably the person he is looking for.

Chen Si'er took him away from the pier, and the two of them came to a courtyard with white walls and black tiles, where the sound of gambling could be heard.

There was someone guarding the courtyard. Chen Si'er smiled and said, "I'm looking for Liu Tuozi on business."

One of the guards asked them to wait while he went to call someone.

According to Chen Si'er, this is a casino. The Spring Festival has not yet ended at this stall, so there is not much business. Many boat owners like to gamble here, and it can be regarded as a fixed place to receive orders.

Chen Si'er's mission was completed, he took two hundred yuan and left happily.

Not long after, Li Jiankun saw Liu Tuozi in the courtyard. He walked out of the house with two followers. There was a tumor on the back of his neck as big as a baby's fist. No wonder he was called this nickname.

"Alone?" Liu Tuozi looked at Li Jiankun up and down.

"No, I need to find a channel and a group of workers to get Prato first. I want to know if you are reliable." Li Jiankun said, the purpose of saying this was to follow Liu Tuozi's words.

"If I'm not reliable, no one will be," Liu Tuozi asked, "Are you engaged in clothing business in Prato?"

Li Jiankun nodded.

Liu Tuozi suddenly said: "ciao."

Li Jiankun was slightly startled, wondering why he mentioned the word "Qiao". At this time, Liu Tuozi's expression suddenly changed: "Catch him, this man is evil!"

Only then did Li Jiankun realize that this was probably not an Italian word. He tried to escape, but found that it was too late. The courtyard door was blocked...
