Chapter 475 Abalone Soup

A dozen vendors angrily surrounded Tao Yao who was lying on the hospital bed, and then hit him hard with sticks in their hands.

Tao Yao was hit so hard that he cried for his parents and crawled under the bed.

But he was soon dragged out and continued to be beaten until Tao Yao was beaten into a pig's head and passed out. Only then did they stop and leave.

Seeing that he had escaped danger, Xiao Wang was so relieved that he ran out of the ward in a panic and called the police.

Half an hour later, several police officers came to deal with the beating of Tao Yao.

And the leader was none other than Zhou Bin.

As soon as Xiao Wang saw Zhou Bin, his expression changed immediately.

But there was nothing much to say, so he could only bite the bullet and tell her what had just happened.

Zhou Bin was listening and taking notes. Just when he was about to express his doubts, Tao Yao, who was lying on the hospital bed, woke up.

"You... why are you here?" Tao Yao, who was dizzy, was so scared when he saw Zhou Bin that he crawled up and sat up.

It was obvious that he was very wary of Zhou Bin.

After all, without his interference, the person in charge of Dayu City is Zhou Bin, not Tao Yao.

"Your people called the police and said you were beaten, so I came here." Zhou Bin smiled and replied, "Director Tao, tell me! Why were you beaten?"

This was clearly a mockery of Tao Yao, so how could Tao Yao not hear the truth? After a pause, he gritted his teeth and replied, "Didn't Xiao Wang tell you how I was beaten? I tell you, Zhou Bin, don't gloat over your misfortune here. If the person who beat me is not caught within an hour, then you can expect to be fired!"

"Okay! Then I'll wait for you to fire me." Zhou Bin put away his notebook and looked at Tao Yao: "By the way, Mr. Zhang asked me to tell you something. He said that if you can still crawl, you should quickly crawl over and explain why the stall fee at the Red Star Farmers Market has suddenly increased by more than three times."

"besides……"

"The man who chopped you was caught by Liu Hang."

"According to him, you paid him three hundred dollars to act in a play. Think about it before you go to the police station to report it. I'm not in a hurry."

After saying that, Zhou Bin left with several colleagues around him without any hesitation.

Tao Yao stood on the hospital bed as if struck by lightning, unable to react for a moment.

It was also somewhat unexpected that Liu Hang was so capable in Dayu City that he could catch the person who hacked him and prove his innocence in such a short time.

In order to avoid getting into trouble because of this incident, Tao Yao asked Xiao Wang to call his father-in-law and ask him to come out and help as soon as possible after he came to his senses.

Surprisingly, the father-in-law who was usually available at any time didn't even answer the phone, and the mother-in-law couldn't get in touch with other members of the Wu family.

The reason for this is that it is obvious that some leader has secretly given instructions.

Otherwise, the family would never avoid Tao Yao as if he were the plague.

After Tao Yao came to his senses, he realized that he was just asking Tao Yu for the management rights of Dayu City just to make things difficult for himself and to shoot himself in the foot.

In order to avoid going in, he had no choice but to drag his injured body to explain the problem to Mr. Zhang.

Around ten o'clock the next morning, Tao Yao handed over power and the right to manage Dayu City to Zhou Bin.

Because Tao Yao was a member of the Tao family, Zhou Bin did not touch Tao Yao, but let Tao Yao and Wu Peilin and his wife leave Dayu City.

The first thing Zhou Bin did after taking office was to restore Liu Hang and He Peng to their positions at the Red Star Farmers Market and adjust the stall fees back to the original price.

This move was immediately supported by nearly a thousand vendors in the Red Star Farmers' Market, and some even presented Zhou Bin with banners.

After Tao Yao learned the news, he was extremely angry. He then realized that the reform plan he had worked so hard to come up with ended up being a wedding dress for Zhou Bin.

In order to calm the resentment in his heart, he immediately called his right-hand man Wang Wukong.

Like Liu Hang, Wang Wukong was born into a gangster family and made many contributions to Tao Yao.

But surprisingly, this time Wu Peilin's father Wu Zuozhang also came with him.

Wu Zuozhang was a little old man in his sixties. He looked very kind, but Tao Yao didn't dare to look him in the eye: "Dad, you... why are you here?"

"What do you think?" Wu Zuozhang sneered as he sat opposite Tao Yao. After Wu Peilin poured him some tea, he continued unhappily, "Listen, I've found you an easy position in Gusha City. You and Peilin should go there and start working right away. Don't think too much about other things."

"But..." Tao Yao hesitated to speak.

"No buts." Wu Zuozhang slammed his palm on the table, with anger in his eyes: "Do you know who Liu Hang and He Peng belong to? They are Liu Qingsong's people."

"When you were preparing to take over Dayu City, I reminded you to try your best to build a good relationship with Liu Qingsong, but what about you? Did you do it?"

"Dad, Liu Qingsong is just a small farmer. He's not... not as powerful as you said, right?" Tao Yao said aggrievedly when he heard it.

"Liu Hang and He Peng control the purchasing rights for half of the daily necessities in Dayu City. If we don't drive them away, it will be difficult to carry out our work in Dayu City." Wu Peilin couldn't help but say.

"Then do you know why Tao Yu didn't dare to touch Liu Hang and He Peng? Why did he recommend Zhou Bin to take over Dayu City instead of you Tao Yao?" Wu Zuozhang asked back.

"This..." Tao Yao couldn't answer.

"Is it because of their good relationship?" Wu Peilin asked in a low voice.

"Wrong, because they are all Liu Qingsong's men." Wu Zuozhang lowered his voice: "Do you know why Tao Yu was promoted? Do you know who was the middleman in the recent grain transaction with Hong Kong Island?"

"I tell you, it's all Liu Qingsong."

"And Tao Yao, you actually moved against Liu Qingsong's people as soon as you took office. Is there something wrong with your brain?"

"Dad, why didn't you tell me this before?" Tao Yao said with a sad face.

If he had known this earlier, how could he have had such courage!

"How can I tell you? The leaders above have already told us not to ask about Liu Qingsong's affairs, nor to spread rumors." Wu Zuozhang looked very disappointed. "Besides, since you want to take over the wealthy Dayu City, don't you have done these basic tasks?"

"If I have to remind you all the time, then you might as well not be the person in charge."

Tao Yao was silent. Only then did he realize that things had turned out like this and that it was all his own fault.

"You!" Wu Zuozhang pointed at Tao Yao and said, "Your emotional intelligence is too low. This is all you can achieve in this life."

"Hurry up and pack your bags to go to Gusha City to take up your post. Don't delay here. Liu Qingsong and Liu Hang are not people you can offend."

"Okay! Okay!" Tao Yaolian nodded.

"Also, after you go to Gusha City, you can only get along well with Tao Yu. Don't offend him. He is now a big shot in the eyes of the leaders." Wu Zuozhang reminded again.

"I understand." Tao Yao remembered it this time and kept it in his heart.

After all, he couldn't make the same mistake again and couldn't even stay in Gusha City in the end.

"I understand. I'll go to the Huaishu Production Team to see Jiang Chuyang. Ahem... I'd also like to apologize to you and Liu Qingsong." Wu Zuozhang coughed twice, turned around and left with Wang Wuzhong.

……

Liu Qingsong was selecting abalone from the refrigerator in the glass warehouse to nourish his second sister. Just when he was about to finish, the liquid robot spoke: "Master, there are strangers visiting. Because the people around them have murderous intent, they are now trapped in the Bagua maze. Do you need to let them in?"

"Who is this stranger?" Liu Qingsong looked at the tracking mirror. "Let me check." The liquid robot controlled the tracking mirror and soon got the result: "His name is Wu Zuozhang, Wu Peilin's father and Tao Yao's father-in-law."

"Why is he coming to Huaishu Production Team?" Liu Qingsong frowned.

Do you still want to cause trouble for him because of Tao Yao's matter?

"Not sure." The liquid robot replied.

"Then forget about him." Liu Qingsong carried two abalones and walked towards the exit of the Wanjie garbage dump: "Let this old man suffer a little first."

"Okay." The liquid robot nodded.

……

at dusk.

After Liu Qingsong finished his work, he came to Liu Lijuan's room and teased the twins in the cradle with a smile: "Second sister, they look so much like you, especially their eyes and nose, they are just like you."

"Your brother-in-law said so too." Liu Lijuan looked at the twins with doting eyes: "By the way! Their names haven't been chosen yet! Can you ask Grandpa Jiang to help pick a nice name for them?"

"That's no problem." Before Liu Qingsong could say anything, Jiang Lao, who appeared at the door, smiled and agreed: "But not now. I have to go to the intersection with Qingsong to pick up an old friend. He got lost in the Huaishu Production Team."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"What is the name of this old friend?" Liu Qingsong asked knowingly.

Liu Lijuan was also very curious.

"Wu Zuozhang." Old Jiang replied, stroking his beard.

"Oh!" Liu Qingsong nodded: "Then let's pick him up! There's no rush to name him."

"Okay! Okay!" Old Jiang turned and left.

Liu Qingsong followed behind and secretly lifted the siege of Wu Zuozhang by the Bagua maze.

When the two of them arrived at the three-way intersection that bordered the Toad Production Team, they saw the disheveled Wu Zuozhang walking out of the pine forest in the southeast on crutches.

There were several young men following behind Wu Zuozhang. They were also in a miserable state. Some of them had lost their shoes and their feet were covered in blood.

"Oh! Zuozhang, how did you get into this state?" After seeing Wu Zuozhang, Mr. Jiang quickly walked towards him.

"Don't mention it. This place you live in is really weird." Wu Zuozhang looked around with lingering fear: "I arrived at the territory of Huaishu Production Team at noon, but ended up wandering around in this forest for the whole afternoon."

"Really?" Old Jiang smiled, stretched out his hand to introduce Liu Qingsong who was not far away, and then led him to the foot of Wild Boar Ridge.

Just as they were about to reach the door of the red brick house, Elder Jiang suddenly looked at Wu Zuozhang in surprise and said, "Put your hand over here so I can feel your pulse."

"Okay! Okay!" Wu Zuozhang did as he was told.

Liu Qingsong didn't want to have too much interaction with Wu Zuozhang, so he said something and went back to serve abalone soup to his elder sister.

Liu Qingsong spent an entire afternoon cooking this abalone soup. In order to prevent people from knowing that the main ingredient was abalone, he chopped the abalone into minced meat.

However, even so, the greedy children such as Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi, and Yaomei discovered something was wrong and actually started drinking secretly when Liu Qingsong was away.

Most of the big pot of abalone soup had been gone by now. If Li Fenfen hadn't been guarding the kitchen door, it would have been gone long ago.

Liu Qingsong was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after learning about this situation, but he did not say anything to the children. Instead, he filled a large bowl of abalone soup and walked towards the red brick house where Liu Lijuan lived.

As for the remaining abalone soup, it was naturally given to Li Fenfen and her elder sister.

Liu Lijuan was already extremely hungry at this time. When she saw Liu Qingsong bringing a large bowl of fragrant broth, she took it and started drinking without asking any questions.

After drinking it, Liu Lijuan couldn't help but ask: "Qingsong, what kind of soup is this? Why is it so delicious?"

"Abalone soup." Liu Qingsong replied in a low voice.

He didn't want to hide anything about his second sister, and of course, there was no need to hide it.

"Abalone soup?" Liu Lijuan gasped: "Where did you get the abalone?"

"Don't worry about this, second sister. If you want to drink it, I will continue to make it for you tomorrow." Liu Qingsong replied with a smile.

"Okay! Let's cook more tomorrow." Liu Lijuan handed the bowl of soup to Liu Qingsong with happiness in her eyes.

After all, not every brother would be so considerate and caring towards his sister and would make such precious abalone soup.

"By the way, where is my sister-in-law?" Liu Qingsong looked around and asked casually.

"Washing diapers." Liu Lijuan replied with a smile.

"Oh!" Liu Qingsong smiled and was about to take the bowl back when Old Jiang came over in a hurry: "Qingsong, do you still have any wild Ganoderma lucidum?"

"What's wrong?" Liu Qingsong asked.

Liu Lijuan also looked at Mr. Jiang.

"My old friend Wu Zuozhang is seriously ill, and I need wild Ganoderma lucidum as medicine to treat him." Old Jiang replied with a long sigh.

"I'm sorry, I don't have any wild Ganoderma lucidum at the moment." Liu Qingsong responded tactfully when he heard this.

If it were anyone else, he would not be stingy with the wild Ganoderma lucidum. But for Tao Yao's father-in-law Wu Zuozhang, sorry, he would not give it to him even if he had it.

This is not because he is standing by and watching someone die, but Tao Yao's previous targeting of Liu Hang and He Peng was actually targeting him.

If he still had the nerve to send wild Ganoderma lucidum to save Wu Zuozhang, he would look down on himself.

"Okay then! I'll go find other people and think of a solution." Old Jiang was obviously stunned for a moment, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just turned around and left.

Liu Lijuan waited until Jiang Lao walked away, and couldn't help but whispered, "Qingsong, how could you not have wild Ganoderma lucidum? I remember the last time I talked to you, you said you still had two."

"There are two good ones, but I don't want to give them to Wu Zuozhang." Liu Qingsong replied with a smile.

"Why?" Liu Lijuan wondered.

"Because Wu Zuozhang is not a good person..." Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Liu Qingsong immediately told Tao Yao and Wu Zuozhang's relationship.

Liu Qingsong also told them the truth about everything Tao Yao had done to Liu Hang and He Peng.

After Liu Lijuan understood, she suddenly realized: "Qingsong, you are right not to give Wu Zuozhang the wild Ganoderma lucidum, but I think you should explain it clearly to Grandpa Jiang, because Grandpa Jiang definitely doesn't know the inside story."

"We'll talk about it later. Grandpa Jiang is not a stingy person. He won't bother with me about these things." Liu Qingsong glanced at the sky outside the window: "No more talking. I'm going to go back and wash the dishes. We'll talk again when we have time in the evening."

"Okay, okay." Liu Lijuan nodded.

Liu Qingsong turned and walked towards the door.

Who knew that as soon as he walked out, Wu Zuozhang appeared with gifts under the leadership of Mr. Jiang.
