The patrol veteran was startled by the tall man's words: "How is it now?"
"I don't know either!"
The tall man held on to the tree and said, "I... didn't see it... so I came to report it!"
"How many bandits are there?"
The veteran asked anxiously.
"At least...one hundred and fifty..."
"It's broken, sir, he only brought ten people with him!"
The veteran patted his thigh and said to his companion: "Lao Quan, go back quickly and inform the village chief to go to Mr. Jin's house. I will take this brother to Factory Director Tang first."
Jin Feng is the king of Xihewan. If something happens to him, the whole village will be destroyed.
The veteran was not qualified to confirm whether the hunter's words were true or false, so he could only take him to see Tang Dongdong and the village chief.
"good!"
Another veteran ran away.
"Brother Han, come with me!"
After saying that, the veteran took the hunter and ran away.
When they arrived at Jin Feng's house, Runniang told the veteran that Tang Dongdong was in the factory. The veteran left the hunter at Jin Feng's house, signaled to the female soldier guarding the door to keep an eye on the hunter, and then turned around and ran to the textile factory.
In the textile workshop, Tang Dongdong was discussing matters with a team leader. When he heard the veteran's report, his face changed with fright, and he asked anxiously: "Where is the person who reported the news?"
"In the study room where Mr. usually entertains guests..."
Before the veteran finished speaking, Tang Dongdong, who always paid attention to her image in the textile factory, ran towards the door with her skirt in hand.
Many female workers stopped what they were doing, wondering what had happened, which made the usually calm factory manager Dongdong so panicked.
When Tang Dongdong ran home, another veteran arrived with the village chief.
Also coming with me was Liu Tie, who just came back from Guangyuan today.
"Dongdong, this brother said that bandits robbed and killed Mr. What happened?"
The old village chief was wearing clothes and only had one shoe on his feet. He didn't know whether he didn't have time to put it on or he ran away.
As soon as he saw Tang Dongdong, he asked anxiously.
Liu Tie behind him was even more embarrassed, with his upper body and two feet bare.
"I just got the news and rushed back."
Tang Dongdong rushed into the study and saw the somewhat embarrassed hunter.
The study was decorated by Jin Feng himself. Although it was not very luxurious, it was very stylish and very tidy.
After the hunter, who was used to crawling around in the mountains, came in, he didn't even dare to sit on the chair, and he didn't even dare to touch the tea that Run Niang brought him.
Seeing Tang Dongdong and the others entering the house, the hunter quickly imitated the scene in the play, raised his hands and said, "I've seen the madam, I've seen this old man, I've seen..."
"Stop being polite!"
Tang Dongdong was usually very polite in his dealings with others, but at this time he couldn't care less. He directly interrupted the hunter and asked anxiously: "You came to report that bandits robbed and killed my husband?"
"Yes. Old Tang from the next village and I went to the mountains to see the animal dens today and we passed by..."
The hunter nodded quickly, and without waiting for Tang Dongdong to continue asking, he told everything he knew, like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.
"You said there were at least 150 bandits?"
The village chief frowned and asked: "Now the biggest groups of bandits are surrounded by us. Are there any bandits who have rushed out?"
"No, it was three gangs of bandits who got together and added up." said the hunter.
"Three gangs of bandits getting together?"
The old village chief's frown deepened.
Generally speaking, the relationship between bandits is very bad. They often fight for territory and beat the brains out. It is not uncommon for gangsters to take advantage of gangsters.
Rarely will several groups of bandits cooperate.
And now among the bandits in Jinchuan, who doesn’t know that Xihewan cannot be provoked?
So the old village chief was a little doubtful of what the hunter said.
"Old man, Mr. Jin really encountered bandits, I didn't lie to you!"
The hunter also saw that the village chief was a little unconvinced and stamped his feet anxiously: "I ran so far and didn't even dare to rest on the way. I was so exhausted that I went to Xihewan to lie to you. What good would it do to me? What good would it do me if I told a lie?
Even so, you can’t spare me!”
"Little brother, we don't believe you. You've worked hard all the way. Let's rest here first. I'll go gather some help right away."
The village chief gave Tang Dongdong and Liu Tie a wink and walked out of the study with his hands behind his back.
Tang Dongdong and Liu Tie quickly followed out.
The hunter also wanted to follow him out, but was stopped by the female soldier guarding the door.
"Village chief, what do you think about this?"
Tang Dongdong followed the village chief to the middle of the yard and asked anxiously: "Do you think what this hunter said is true?"
"I think it's 80% true. After all, Brother Feng should have come back a long time ago, but he hasn't come back until now."
The village chief said with worry on his face: "But this matter is not trivial. Now the bandits hate us Xihewan. What if he is sent by bandits to deceive us and deceive all our village guards, and the bandits come again to attack Xihewan?"
Then it’s all over, even if we die, we can’t explain it to Brother Feng!”
"Dad, doesn't that mean you didn't say anything?" Liu Tie curled his lips and said.
"Shut up!" The village chief kicked Liu Tie and turned to look at Tang Dongdong: "Miss Dongdong, are there anyone from Tangjiazhuang and Hanjiazhuang in your factory?"
"I remember a few." Tang Dongdong nodded.
"Didn't he say that he is a hunter from Hanjiazhuang, and that he has a companion from Tangjiazhuang who went to report to Brother Feng?"
The village chief said: "Go and get a feel for this man and that man named Tang Fei."
"Okay!" Tang Dongdong quickly sent a female soldier to find someone in the textile factory.
Soon, a team leader from the textile factory led four female workers into the yard.
"Director, they are from Tangjiazhuang, and they are from Hanjiazhuang."
The team leader introduced the female workers and asked: "Actually, there are three more from Tangjiazhuang, but they are on the day shift and have gone back to rest. Do you want me to call them?"
"No need for now."
Tang Dongdong shook his head: "You go back first."
"good!"
The team leader nodded and stepped back.
The four female workers all looked at Tang Dongdong anxiously.
They didn't know what the young female factory director wanted from them.
Did he make a mistake? Or did the people from Tangjiazhuang and Hanjiazhuang offend the factory director?
"I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you must answer them truthfully, okay?"
Tang Dongdong looked at several female workers.
"Don't worry, director, as long as we know everything, we will definitely tell you and we won't dare to lie to you!"
The four female workers all promised.
The period after coming to Xihewan was the best period of their lives.
Not only do you no longer have to worry about your stomach, but you can also earn money to support your family every day.
After experiencing such a good life, they would not want to go back to live the hard life again even if they were killed.
"Do you know him?"
Tang Dongdong pointed at the hunter circling in the study room.
"I know him. He is the hunter from our village. His name is Han Feng."
A female worker replied timidly.
Tang Dongdong and the village chief looked at each other and nodded slightly.
