Chapter 442 Yi Zhonghai was tricked
A new week begins.
Yi Zhonghai joined the work team as if nothing had happened.
It was just his slightly strange gait and a scabbed scratch on his face that attracted everyone's strange looks.
Some curious people had secretly inquired around yesterday afternoon. Although they didn't find anything, everyone knew that it was definitely not a simple fall.
Only Jia Dongxu asked with foolish concern: "Master, you are not well yet, how about I ask for leave for you?"
Yi Zhonghai shook his head and replied with a righteous look:
"No need, it's just a minor skin injury. How can it delay work?"
He was actually very depressed and really didn't want to go out and embarrass himself.
But there is no way. The group of people who came to support the construction some time ago transferred most of the few eighth-level workers in the factory.
Yi Zhonghai is considered a leader among the seventh-level workers, so his status in the factory has risen rapidly recently and he is highly valued.
Despite the heavy production tasks, the leader in charge of the workshop even personally promised him something, encouraging him to take the eighth-level worker exam this year.
So Yi Zhonghai was worried that his leave would affect production tasks and attract the attention of his leaders.
What he hopes most now is that his work and life will go on as usual, and no one will notice the little thing that happened yesterday, and no one will investigate it.
But just as the group walked out of the courtyard gate, a voice made Yi Zhonghai's heart skip a beat.
"Hey! Master Yi! Here!"
Village chief Wang was waiting at the gate of the courtyard early in the morning. When he saw his target, he waved and greeted him anxiously.
Ignoring everyone's gaze, Yi Zhonghai first sent the curious Jia Dongxu away, then pulled Village Chief Wang to the corner and asked with suppressed emotion:
"Old Wang, what do you mean? You come to my house so early in the morning to block me. Are you worried that I won't die quickly enough?"
Village Chief Wang had no choice but to explain: "Oh! I'm old, do you think I want to come?
Something happened. Bao Qian left a suicide note last night, but luckily she was rescued."
Yi Zhonghai was a little suspicious and angrily scolded: "What the hell! She thinks she is a chaste heroine and is seeking death!
I paid so much money and supported her family for so long, why are you so crazy? "
Village Chief Wang made an awkward expression and said soothingly, "Don't worry, the person is stable for now!
Oh! Ultimately, this is my fault. I didn't ask her opinion yesterday before I made the final decision, and I didn't control those gossips.
The villagers had already benefited from this matter for nothing, but they were still sarcastic to Bao Qian and made her angry.
After a big fight, he refused to agree to pay the villagers 100 yuan as hush money.
Yi Zhonghai thought to himself, you guys are just taking advantage of others and calling them bitches!
But he had no intention of speaking for Bao Qian, so he just shifted the blame in a bad tone:
"That's your village's business, don't think about asking for more money, and don't think you can use this to control me.
Since you dared to do this, I have already made preparations for the worst! It is nothing more than being punished!"
Village Chief Wang quickly waved his hands in denial, "No, no, no, it's not your fault. I've already severely scolded those gossipy women who were looking for trouble.
Then most of the 200 yuan compensation you gave was distributed to Bao Qian, which stabilized the situation.
I came to you early in the morning to ask for money so that we can resolve the matter as soon as possible.
To be safe, I even made the trip alone and was exhausted.
I don't want anyone to die from this, otherwise not only will your reputation be ruined, but our village will also be in trouble!"
Yi Zhonghai was not interested in these details at all, but asked worriedly:
"Then the villagers got less money, wouldn't that be a bad thing?"
Village Chief Wang assured him, "On average, it's not much money to begin with, and it's free. Why should they be dissatisfied?
Don't worry! I can handle this! After all these years, you still don't trust me?"
Yi Zhonghai nodded when he heard this, and did not refute the incident of being caught cheating and beaten up, saying that he did not believe what you said.
He had no intention of cheating on the money. Only by spending money could he cut off the source and minimize the impact of the matter.
However, he still reminded him seriously: "Old Wang, you know that someone is plotting against me behind my back. This matter may have a follow-up. The villagers must control their mouths.
If you take the benefits but don't do the job, don't blame me for being angry. You should know a little bit about my abilities!"
After Village Chief Wang gave some more assurances, Yi Zhonghai went home to get the money.
After the people left, Village Chief Wang spat on the ground and cursed softly, "Hey! What the hell, you dare to threaten me!
Do you really think it was before liberation? I knew the Kuomintang and was involved in gangs, so I was quite capable.
This is a new society, the people are the masters of their own destiny. Wangjia Village has more than ten guns and can even pull out two cannons. How can you turn your back on me?"
Village Chief Wang never considered Yi Zhonghai a friend. He was willing to cover up that mess before because he had some benefits and was just doing a favor.
Of course, he didn't think that after receiving the compensation, he would cause trouble for Yi Zhonghai.
But last night, his brother Wang Laosan came to confess that his family had written a real-name reporting letter and that the money could not be recovered, and the subsequent balance might be lost.
This kind of thing that cuts off everyone's source of income will make you feel ashamed. You can never stay in the village again!
Village chief Wang made the decision without much hesitation. He would rather die than let his friend die. He had to get the money back before the incident broke out.
This not only helps the brothers, but also protects the interests of the village.
So the scene just now happened, and they also made up a story about the widow Bao committing suicide.
The purpose was to avoid arousing Yi Zhonghai's suspicion and get the money as soon as possible.
As long as they get the money, no matter how unlucky Yi Zhonghai is, it has nothing to do with their Wangjia Village. At most, they will just provide a little cover when there is a real investigation.
