Chapter 520 Report Letter
There were too many reports in those years, and the people who were reported were miserable. Even now, when we think back on it, we still feel a little bit scared when we hear the word "report".
"I don't know which evil-hearted person actually reported our family for smuggling. We are fishermen who do our duty, and we go out early and come back late to catch fish. The whole village has seen this with their own eyes and can testify..."
"A few days ago, those goods were brought up easily. Everyone could see that the fabric was wet, and some parts of the clothes were also wet, so they were sold at a cheap price. We have always done our duty. Fishermen. What kind of rotten person talks nonsense and actually reports it..." Ye Ersao cursed and helped Ye Mu explain to everyone.
Sister-in-law Ye also scolded her.
"Hey, you, reporting this is a big deal! Who is so wicked and would still do such a thing? Although it is not as exaggerated as before, it is still very powerful..."
"You must be jealous of someone, right?"
"Yes, it is said in the village that you have made a lot of money during this period. There must be someone who doesn't like your kindness, so they reported it with a bad heart, right?" Ye Yaopeng also cursed angrily,
"Don't let us catch any of the wicked people riding horses in the Gobi..."
"Selinliang's pink eye, why does it hinder me from making money? Doesn't it block his way to make money?"
"Then what should we do now? Has anyone reported it?" Ye Yaohua looked at Ye Yaodong in a panic, as if he was the backbone.
Ye Yaodong rarely had a serious face and frowned.
"I'm going to find out what you should do. Since you already know it, you should stop it, right? I'll go and ask."
"That's right, ask more carefully."
"I don't know which bitch actually reported it..." After Ye Yaodong left, the people behind him continued to curse and discuss.
He went directly to Secretary Chen's house. Secretary Chen probably guessed that he would come, so he sat at the door with his legs crossed to enjoy the cool air. When he saw the person coming, he stood up and went inside.
Ye Yaodong smiled and said hello to the people sitting at the door enjoying the cool air, and then hurried back into the house.
"Secretary Chen..."
"Yes." Secretary Chen took out a folded letter from his pants pocket.
"The postman is on holiday today. When I went to the village committee to get my private seal in the afternoon, I happened to see someone standing sneakily by the village committee's mailbox, looking left and right. Before I could get closer, that person Just ran away.”
"Then I was puzzled, so I went to the office to get the spare key and opened the mailbox. I found an anonymous letter inside, and the mailing address was the X Committee in the county."
"When I saw the address of the letter, my heart skipped a beat. When I opened it, it turned out that it was indeed not a good thing. If we were to go by the trend a few years ago, it would have killed me with a stick."
"Although things have gotten better in the past few years, smuggling is illegal, and the enforcement is very strict now. Fortunately, I found it." Ye Yaodong took the letter and thanked him quickly.
"Now we are not indiscriminate, and when I was fishing, there were many people present. Whether I am a serious fisherman or not, the whole village can testify. But it is better to do less than to do more. Who knows whether I will encounter the lake Tu Guan."
"Well, anyway, this letter was stopped. I don't know if the person went to another place to send it again. Anyway, you should pay attention. You are a responsible person. If anything happens, the folks will also They can all testify.”
"Thank you very much." Secretary Chen waved his hand.
"You're welcome. Do I still know if you are a smuggler? It's all caused by pinkeye. I also hope that there will be no such thing in the village that harms others and does not benefit oneself. Reporting anyone will not be good for our village. This If this trend is lifted, the village will be in chaos in the future. We are just an ordinary small fishing village, so it is better not to have this kind of trend." Ye Yaodong nodded, feeling very grateful in his heart. He also only wanted to make money honestly. , He doesn’t want to take the wrong approach. He is a person who is afraid of death. He has no desire to get rich suddenly. He is very satisfied with his current life again.
"Okay, let's do what we have to do when we go back. It's time to celebrate the holidays and eat moon cakes. Don't worry about anything."
"Okay, thank you Secretary Chen."
"Well, let's go." Ye Yaodong put his hands in his pockets and walked out, holding the envelope with one hand. There was nothing unusual about his expression. It was already dark, and others looked at him curiously, but they couldn't tell. This is why.
Although the fifteen-year-old moon is not as round as sixteen, it is a full moon after all, and it is still bright, and it is not so dim when it shines on the road.
He walked to the window of a house, opened the envelope and looked at it with the faint yellow light coming from inside.
I had been talking to Secretary Chen in the front, so I didn’t open it in front of him. Anyway, I had already given it to him, so it didn’t matter when I looked at it.
But what he didn't expect was that Lin Jishang's name was also written on the envelope, saying that the two of them were smuggling together. The time and place were clearly written. It was at the dock when they came back a few nights ago. That time I met Lin Jishang!
Grass! Was he seen by others that night? I wonder if there are too many lights on the pier, attracting people?
However, even those with clairvoyance cannot see the other side. The most they can see is the light of many flashlights.
Or maybe Lin Ji was accidentally seen when he went to the dock? Then he docked at exactly this time and sold a large amount of goods the next day?
This can explain why the reporter named both of them. So does this mean that Lin Jishang has harmed him, or has he harmed Lin Jishang?
He carefully identified the word "dog crawling" on it, but he couldn't figure out why. Everyone wrote almost the same words. If he could write it clearly and make people recognize what the word was, it was already good.
After getting no results, he folded the letter again, put it back in the envelope, put it in his pocket, and prepared to go home. But when he reached the fork in the road, he thought about it and took another abrupt turn.
He can't be the only one worried about this! He shouldn't be the one who really should be worried and panicked!
He walks upright and sits upright. As he walked, he was thinking, does Secretary Chen know about the smuggling on Lin Jishang?
Or is it that the village is turning a blind eye and not caring as long as it doesn't cause trouble? Then why did you give the letter to him and not to Lin Ji?
Is it because it is difficult to find people in Linji? And you gave it to him directly after he went? Headache! I can’t figure it out.
He might as well just pretend that he came to the door first. When we walked to the door of Lin Jishang's house, his two children were squatting in front of the mooncakes and blowing incense. The two children were about the same age as his youngest son. I heard they were the same age at the beginning and end of the year, which was pretty cool.
He glanced at the door a few times, but saw no one, so he walked into the house. His wife happened to be cleaning the pot with an old loofah, so he stood at the door and knocked.
"Is Lin Jishang at home?"
"Huh?" Lin Jishang's wife was startled, then she patted her chest again, and instantly returned to normal. She said with a smile: "He just finished eating and went out for a walk. He is not here." A guilty conscience is what it is.
Ye Yaodong thought for a moment and decided to give it to his wife. If the person next to him didn't know anything about his man, he would definitely give it to him.
"Then I won't wait for him. You can help me bring this letter to him. Just say that I got it by accident." Ye Yaodong placed the letter directly on the stove.
"Ah? Oh, okay, I'll give it to him when he comes back later." Ye Yaodong nodded and left directly.
Showing the letter to Lin Jishang can also be used as a warning. He has already read it anyway, and it is of no use to him. He is an honest and responsible person.
Don’t do bad things during the day, and don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. Who would have thought that as soon as he reached the intersection of the separation, he would meet Lin Ji again. He really had no place to look for, and it took no effort at all, but his letter had already been handed over to his wife.
"What a coincidence?"
"It's quite fate. I have a letter for you. I just gave it to your wife. Remember to read it when you get back."
"What letter?" Lin Jishang frowned. Ye Yaodong looked around and saw that there was no one around. He whispered, "Report letter." Lin Jishang was surprised.
"Where did it come from?"
"It was taken out of the village committee's mailbox." Lin Jishang frowned, touched his pocket, took out a letter, and read it in front of him.
Unexpectedly, when I read the contents of the letter, I was immediately dumbfounded. Ye Yaodong saw the change in his expression and was curious for a moment. Why did he also have a letter in his pocket?
"The letter you got from my house was given to you by Secretary Chen?"
"You know?" General Lin Ji handed him the letter in his hand directly.
"Secretary Chen made a mistake in our reporting letters. This one is yours. The one you got from my house is mine, right?"
"Ah?" He has another one? A separate letter to report him? Can he still get this treatment? Ye Yaodong quickly took it and took a look. The handwriting of this letter was even more ugly. Each stroke was very personal and the content was very concise. However, the words were written so large that people could barely make out what they were.
The letter reported him as a speculator, involved in smuggling, and reselling smuggled goods. He also thoughtfully added a time and place.
After reading it, he couldn't laugh or cry. Just tell him, he is an honest man, and Lin Jishang is a habitual criminal when it comes to smuggling. The two of them appear on the list together, so why should he give the letter to him?
It turned out that the two letters were taken by mistake. This separate report on him was what Secretary Chen planned to give him. Although both letters reported on smuggling, the priority was different.
This letter was obviously written intentionally by someone who was jealous of him. In the previous letter, someone must have witnessed the scene that day, so he could describe it clearly.
"I didn't expect that there would be two reporting letters reporting us at the same time."
"This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the postman took a holiday two days in advance and stopped collecting mails. It happened that the letters were not picked up. What was written in my report letter?"
"What else can you write? You don't have a clue? You wrote about the scene when I came back to dock a few days ago and happened to meet you. Then you wrote about me pushing several carts of goods home in the middle of the night. The three brothers came second. Tian is selling a lot of goods in front of his house, so he reported the two of us as a smuggling partner." Lin Jishang chuckled softly,
"It turns out you took one and a half of the two letters, and I took half."
"Huh? You're mistaken. I'm completely unreal. I walk upright and sit upright, but you have to be careful."
"I know, I know what's going on."
"Well, just intercept it. Let's go back to our homes and find our wives." Ye Yaodong casually crumpled the letter into a ball and stuffed it into his pocket, planning to burn it when he took it back later.
