Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 503 Questions (Part )

Deputy Chief Diao's words almost stupefied the two policemen. What the hell? Five thousand yuan?
What does 5,000 yuan mean? Let’s not talk about ordinary police officers. Let’s take Li Yancheng for example. His current rank is bureau level, with an administrative salary of 218.5 yuan and a position salary of 40 yuan, a total of 258.5 yuan. The Health Bureau gives him an expert subsidy of 100 yuan every month, so he gets a total of 358.5 yuan per month.

Five thousand yuan is equivalent to his fourteen months' salary, and he has to go without food and drink to save it.

If an ordinary police officer were paid 80 yuan a month, he would have to go without food and drink for more than five years to save up 5,000 yuan.

Now that Deputy Director Diao asked them whether they found 5,000 yuan in Yang's house, it would be strange if they were not stupid.

Yang Daguang was just an ordinary farmer who earned work points in the production team, and so was his wife. The two of them worked hard all year, and after deducting the grain they received, they could still have 100 or 200 yuan in cash, which was considered a good job for both of them. How could their family have 5,000 yuan?

"Captain Diao, did I hear you correctly? You mean the Yang family has 5,000 yuan?" One of the two police officers asked in disbelief.

"Yes," Deputy Director Diao nodded heavily, "I can say for sure that his family has 5,000 yuan. Of course, I don't know whether Yang Daguang deposited the money in the bank or just kept it at home, but he does have the money, and I'm not the only one who knows about this.

Judging from your expressions, you two probably didn’t find the money. So I guess the person who killed him might have taken the money…”

"No...Captain Diao, please wait a moment." The police officer interrupted Deputy Chief Diao before he could finish his words.

"Can you tell me first, what happened to Yang Daguang's five thousand yuan?"

This is five thousand yuan. If the Yang family really has this money, then the murderer's motive will be found.

"He sold a treasure that was an heirloom in his family. The buyer offered him 5,000 yuan, and the two of them made the deal."

???

What is so expensive? Is he selling a dragon robe or a dragon crown?
"Manager Diao, what is he selling?"

"I'm not sure about this, but there is someone who definitely knows. You can ask him."

"Who?"

"My two police comrades, I can tell you who this person is. In fact, the reason why Yang Daguang was able to sell that kind of thing was because this person acted as a middleman, so this person knows everything about this matter.

But what I want to say is that you must keep it a secret for me, I don’t want anyone to find me in the future…”

As soon as he said this, Deputy Director Diao shut up. He frowned and thought for a while, then slowly shook his head and said, "Forget it, you two. It's not that I look down on you, but you may not be able to make the decision. I wonder which leader is leading the team to handle the case this time? It's best to ask your leader to come over, and I can tell him."

Seeing that the police officer raised his eyebrows and wanted to say something, Deputy Director Diao raised his hand and signaled: "Comrade Public Security, I am not being mysterious, I just don't want to cause trouble for myself. Now you either call your leader, at least a deputy director or above, or I will not say anything, even if you arrest me, I will admit it."

Looking at the indifferent expression on Deputy Director Diao's face, the police officer pursed his lips and wanted to say something. After hesitating for a moment, he didn't say anything. He just nodded after thinking for a while.

"I understand your request. How about this, Director Diao? You come with me now. Of course, I'm not taking you to investigate, but our director is at the police station right now. You don't trust me, but you should trust our Lin Bureau, right? This also satisfies your condition that you need to find a leader above the deputy director of our bureau before you are willing to speak to him."

When he heard that Director Lin from the County Bureau was also coming, Deputy Director Diao's eyes suddenly lit up.

He did know some things, and he really didn't want to offend the middleman he just mentioned, but he just didn't want to offend him, he was not really afraid of him.

The fact that he was able to become the deputy director of a slaughterhouse, which is definitely a lucrative job in today's era, is not without some foundation. It's just that everyone is in the same position, and he doesn't want to offend anyone if possible.

If the person who died today was not the sister-in-law of his wife's cousin, and the murderer also stole the child, it would be really hateful. He would definitely keep the thing he knew to himself and not say a word.

The police officer did not mention that the deputy director in charge of the municipal bureau and the deputy leader in charge of liaison with the county public security bureau were also there. He felt that their forestry bureau could handle most of the matters in the county.

"Since Director Lin is here, then I have no problem. Comrade, you go first and I'll be there soon."

The police officer knew that Director Diao wanted to avoid suspicion, so he didn't say anything else, just nodded, then signaled to the other colleague, and the two of them stood up together.

"Captain Diao, we'll wait for you at the station."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll go say hello to our manager and I'll be there soon. It won't take up any time."

"Row"

……

"Old Du, do you think what this Diao said is credible?"

After walking out of the slaughterhouse, the one of the two police officers who had been silent and just taking notes asked.

"It's quite credible." Lao Du turned his head to look at the slaughterhouse gate, then continued, "He didn't have to lie to us. If he hadn't mentioned that he had some connection with Guo Meihua, we wouldn't know when we would find out.

Besides, even if he cheated us, it doesn’t matter. Even if he has a background, we may not be able to do anything to him. I don’t believe his background can be stronger than Director Li’s.”

The other police officer raised his eyebrows after hearing this. Yes, Director Li is here. With him here, they dare to investigate anyone in Rouhuai County. Even if they go to the city, few people dare to refuse to give face to Director Li.

The commune street was not long, and within a few minutes the two of them reached the commune police station. In the yard, Li Yancheng, Deputy Leader Cao, Lin Wentao, and Zhu Dongjun were talking while waiting for the people who had gone out to investigate and verify to come back with feedback.

As soon as the two entered the yard, they saw four leaders. They straightened their clothes a little and trotted up to the four people.

"Alright, we're all family, so stop being so polite and tell me the situation."

Seeing the two men about to salute, Li Yancheng raised his hand and waved.

"Leaders, Cheng Dong and I were responsible for investigating and verifying Zhu Junmin, a salesman at the commune's supply and marketing cooperative, and Diao Sheng, the deputy director of the slaughterhouse. What they said was basically the same as what Qin Xuezhi said."

Lao Du's answer was concise and he finished reporting in one sentence. However, he did not stop there and immediately told him what Deputy Director Diao had reported.

"What did you say? Yang Daguang's family still has 5,000 yuan?"

This news really shocked Li Yancheng and the other three people. If this news is true, then the murderer's motive for committing the crime is basically clear, that is, he was after the money. As for why he wanted to kill people, it is very likely that they were discovered while stealing, and Yang Daguang and Guo Meihua's resistance was too fierce. In order to prevent others from knowing, the murderer simply killed the two of them.

But why did they steal the child? This is still a difficult question to explain.

"Diao Sheng said that he would come over soon. He must have had some difficulties. He didn't want to talk to us. He said that he had to see a leader above the deputy director of our bureau before he would tell us. I told him that Director Lin was here, and then he agreed to come."

"Diao Sheng?"

At this time, Deputy Leader Cao, who had hardly expressed any opinions on the case, spoke up.

In his words, he came here today just to accompany Deputy Director Li. He had no idea how to investigate or solve the case, so he didn't say anything and there was no need to ask him. But if there was any work that required his coordination, he would definitely do it without hesitation.

Now he opened his mouth suddenly, immediately attracting the attention of several people.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Deputy Leader Cao waved his hand and said, "Director Li, you guys can talk about your own things. Don't bother with me. I just feel that this name sounds familiar."

After hearing what he said, several people withdrew their gazes. Just when Lin Wentao was about to ask his two subordinates questions, another person walked in from the police station gate. It was Diao Sheng, the deputy director of the slaughterhouse.

As soon as Deputy Director Diao came in, he saw Director Lin of the County Bureau. Just as he put on a smile and was about to jog over, the face of Deputy Leader Cao came into his sight.

Seeing this person was also there, Deputy Director Diao was obviously stunned for a moment.

But he soon came to his senses, the smile on his face became even wider, and his pace became faster than before.

"Hello, Leader Cao, Hello, Director Lin, I am Diao Sheng from the Qiaonan Commune Slaughterhouse."

Deputy Director Diao was very smart. He did not rush to Deputy Leader Cao as soon as he arrived.

In response to his greeting, Deputy Leader Cao simply nodded, while Lin Wentao smiled and shook hands with him. "Hello, Director Diao. I heard from our people that you know something about Yang Daguang, but you seem to have some concerns. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell me about it."

As Lin Wentao spoke, he signaled to the two officers who had just come over to report. The two immediately understood what their leader meant, and without saying anything, they immediately stepped aside.

The two men left, but Li Yancheng, who looked younger, was still here, which made Deputy Director Diao look at him more.

Only then did he discover a clue. This young man and another person he had never seen before, Zhu Dongjun, were standing right between Lin Wentao and Deputy Leader Cao.

Whether it is seating or standing, there are rules to follow and people will not stand randomly. Zhu Dongjun, wearing a police uniform, with dark skin, a serious expression and the aura he exudes, looks like a leader.

Li Yancheng was different. He had a complex aura. Although he was also wearing a police uniform, he gave people the feeling of being more of an intellectual, very elegant, rather than an official.

Could it be that these two people were from the Municipal Public Security Bureau? If Deputy Leader Cao could receive them personally, they must at least be the leaders of a department in the Municipal Bureau.

Deputy Director Diao thought in his heart.

Seeing that Director Lin had no intention of letting the two leave, he no longer hesitated and immediately told them everything he knew. It was similar to what the two had just said, the only difference was that this time he revealed the identity of the broker without reservation.

When he heard the broker's identity, Lin Wentao was extremely annoyed. He regretted that he should have pulled Diao aside and talked to him in a low voice.

Because this broker turned out to be the brother-in-law of the captain of their bureau's public security brigade.

Li Yancheng didn't care what Lin Wentao was thinking at this moment. He was quite confused and uncertain.

In fact, from the report of the two police officers just now, Yang Daguang said that he sold an ancestral treasure for 5,000 yuan. When he heard this, he became suspicious.

What on earth is this selling?
It was only the 1980s, and both per capita income and prices were extremely low.

What could be worth so much money?
In his opinion, even if it was a dragon robe worn by an emperor of the Qing Dynasty, it would not be possible to sell it for such a high price in this era.

It is said that antiques are valuable in prosperous times, and gold is valuable in troubled times. Although now is not a troubled time, it is still far from being a prosperous time. This can be seen from the international gold price this year. The lowest price of the year is US$481 an ounce, the highest price is US$850 an ounce, and the average price of the year is US$655 an ounce.

The rise and fall of gold prices are mainly affected by factors such as the global economic situation, geopolitics and market speculation.

Among these, geopolitics has the greatest impact on gold prices.

It is impossible for anyone in China to be willing to spend 5,000 yuan to buy an heirloom, let alone foreigners. He has never heard of any foreigners spending a lot of money to buy things in China recently.

You know, according to the official exchange rate, in 1980, one US dollar could only be exchanged for 1.49 RMB, and 5,000 RMB could be exchanged for more than 3,000 US dollars. Even in Europe and the United States, this is not a small amount. He doesn't believe that any foreigner is willing to spend so much money to buy a Chinese antique.

Could it be that there is something else going on here?

Thinking of this, Li Yancheng spoke.

"Wentao..."

"Director Li"

"Send someone to bring Guo Xiaohu, whom Director Diao mentioned, to the police station right now and ask him what heirloom Yang Daguang sold and to whom. Make him explain everything.

In addition, check Yang Daguang's resume from childhood to adulthood again and carefully.

Dong Jun..."

"Director Li"

"Send someone to go with you. If anyone tries to stop us, no matter who they are, take them away and bring them back to the city police station for questioning. If no one tries to stop us, we'll conduct the questioning at the Rouhuai County police station."

"Yes"

"Yes"

"Pa" Lin Wentao and Zhu Dongjun responded quickly and saluted after receiving the order.

Director? This young man was actually the director? Deputy Director Diao felt his heart tremble.

He really couldn't think of any other bureau other than the leaders of the Municipal Bureau that could make Lin Wentao, the director of the County Bureau, accept orders so respectfully.

Such a young municipal bureau leader? Even if he is a deputy, he is still at the deputy bureau level!
Deputy Director Diao swallowed with some difficulty, and looking at that overly young face again, he suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure.

Li Yancheng looked down at the watch on his wrist. It was almost five o'clock. Thinking that Rouhuai's leader wanted to treat him to a meal, he turned to look at Deputy Leader Cao.

"Leader Cao, how about this, let's go back to the county first."

Hearing him say this, Deputy Leader Cao also glanced at the watch on his wrist and found that it was indeed time to go back. Fortunately, Director Li brought it up himself, otherwise he would be too embarrassed to speak up later, after all, Director Li's work was more important.

He was still confused after hearing the whole story of this case. It seemed that he didn't even understand the murderer's motive.

But now there seems to be some clue. Five thousand yuan is indeed a large sum of money. Anyway, even though he is the deputy leader of a county and he and his wife both have jobs, they cannot come up with so much money. It should be said that his family has never saved so much money.

It is conceivable that if others knew that Yang Daguang's family had so much money, how could they not have evil thoughts?

However, he was somewhat surprised that the broker turned out to be the brother-in-law of the county police chief.

If the captain is also involved in this case...

Deputy Leader Cao was still in deep thought until he got in the car and headed to the county.

The brigades of the county bureau are generally at the section level, but the captains are all at the deputy section level. For example, the captains of the criminal police brigade, the public security brigade, and the traffic police brigade are all at the high level.

A deputy section-level cadre is already very important in the county.

The municipal bureau usually does not interfere in such personnel appointments, or even ask about them. They are all discussed between the county bureau and the local authorities.

The normal process is that the county bureau recommends, the county organization department conducts an inspection, and if the inspection is passed, it is reported to the team meeting. After discussion and approval at the team meeting, the organization department will issue a document of appointment.

Of course, local governments and higher-level public security departments also have the right to recommend.

However, the situation in Beijing is rather special. The Municipal Bureau is equivalent to the provincial departments in other places, and Rouhuai is just a county bureau. Although the superior department is the Municipal Bureau, due to the huge difference in levels, the Municipal Bureau will not interfere except for the appointment of the director and deputy director, and will only wait for the final report from the County Bureau.

Deputy Leader Cao was considering whether he could...

In another car, Li Yancheng was driving while wondering what the deceased was selling.

He was really curious about this.

Maybe because he had worked in the Social Affairs Bureau for too long, he became a little suspicious and always felt that what Yang Daguang was selling was not just some heirloom.

Consciously or unconsciously, he will think about that aspect.

But such confidential things should not normally be accessible to a farmer.

So he asked Lin Wentao to send someone to check Yang Daguang's background to see if he had had the opportunity to come into contact with confidential information before.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether to investigate or not. When we go to the county bureau and ask the broker Guo Xiaohu, we will know what Yang Daguang is selling.
