Chen Ding stayed in the hospital of the shelter for another two days before being carried back to Wu's house by Chen Yu in a sedan.
Wu Yijun personally welcomed him and sent him to his residence, where he greeted him and was very cordial. He also told him to "take a good rest and recuperate" and "it feels like he's at home when he gets here."
Seeing how enthusiastic he was, Chen Ding was surprised when he was grateful. Originally, when he came to Guangzhou, he planned to visit the Wu family to seek help from the Australians. He and the Wu family were in-laws, and they were very close.
Guaman, who is not married, doesn't have much contact with her on weekdays. She was originally prepared to be rejected, but she didn't expect to treat him so warmly. He is not a "child", so he naturally knew that there must be something hidden behind this.
Wu Yijun did not hide anything. He immediately told Chen Qing that he had originally wanted to invite Chen Qing to return to his hometown to cooperate in setting up a factory, what happened after Chen Qing returned, what people were sent to deliver letters, and so on.
"...It's Qing'er who sent a letter, saying that you will come to Guangzhou and want me to take care of you." Wu Yijun said, "You don't have to rush. For now, it may not be a bad thing for Qing'er to stay in Nansha. You can feel at ease here.
Recuperate." After that, he also mentioned that he had bought the Australian cotton spinning project. Chen Ding naturally understood what he meant and immediately expressed his position:
"Since Brother Shi wants to set up a factory, I also know a thing or two about spinning. If you don't mind, I will definitely work for you!"
"Okay, if Brother Shi can come to help, this business will be secure by three points!" Wu Yijun was happy in his heart and said with a very frank expression, "Brother, you also know that I originally made dried fruits, whether it was spinning cotton or silk.
I know nothing about spinning flax, so I have to rely on you, brother..." He then promised to give him 10% of the stock.
"Let's not talk about dividends for now. It's just that I have never seen this Australian factory, and I don't know what their looms look like. I heard that they all use machines, and we don't have any masters here who can use machines. If so.
I’m afraid it will take a lot of trouble to do it..."
"You don't have to worry about this. The Australians have sent people to contact me a few days ago and asked me to take a few people to Lingao to visit and study. I don't know, brother..."
"Of course I want to do this." Chen Ding was unambiguous, "It's always good to see it in person. It's even better if Australians are willing to teach you!"
Suddenly he remembered something: "I bought a machine, and I want to learn it... Do I need a haircut?" Chen Ding always had a hurdle in his heart. If he didn't follow the Australians, he would do something on his own, and then transfer his ancestral property to his family.
The hope of regaining it is very slim; but if you buy a machine and then shave your head, doesn't it mean that you are a man of steel and have gone to Kun, and you will not be able to predict anything in the future?
"Brother, you can rest assured that Australians do not force you to shave your head or not." Wu Yijun said with a smile. In his opinion, Chen Ding's worries are not only a trivial matter, but also ridiculous.
Yesterday, officials from the Planning Institute of the Senate in Guangzhou paid a visit and sent relevant documents and documents for visiting and studying in Hainan. There were two destinations for this trip, one was Lingao and the other was in Qiong.
The light industry industrial park in Shanshan. There are many production projects for this bidding gathered there.
The fifteen-day visit and study is just a scratch in running a modern factory, but the Planning Institute hopes to collect the opinions and suggestions on the machine from the big bidders through this visit and study.
"Can I really go to Lingao?" Chen Ding was still very curious about the legendary Lingao. He had only heard about it from businessmen before, so I guess it was a lot of exaggeration.
"It's not difficult to go to Lingao. There are boats leaving every day at Tianzi Pier." Wu Yijun became more and more happy as things went smoothly. Although Chen Ding was not suitable for drinking because of his injury, they still put on a banquet and the two of them treated each other with dignity.
Wasdaijiu, discussing the matter of setting up a factory.
Chen Ding came to Guangzhou originally with the intention of starting a business in Guangzhou. Now that he has lost his money, his career will not be possible, but now this opportunity is much easier than if he started a business alone - not only does Wu Yijun, a "sitting tiger", preside over the situation
, or a business involving Australians participating in shares! If you can build connections with Australians by setting up a cotton spinning mill, you will have a backer whether you continue to make a living or start a new business in the future.
The next day, Wu Yijun sent someone to Sanliang to deliver a message, telling his family that Chen Ding had arrived in Guangzhou safely, had a place to stay, and found a job, and told his family not to worry about him - he would not be going back in a short time.
Li Ziyu read the crime report records and related files brought by Zhao Xian, and did not dare to neglect: after all, the robbery case of two hundred taels was also a big case in Guangzhou, so he immediately reported it to Wu Xiang - after returning from studying in Lingao
, he has been promoted to "Inspector" of the Criminal Division of the Guangzhou Police Station. In terms of police rank, he has also broken away from the scope of "Police Sergeant" and became a "third-level commander."
After being promoted, the responsibilities naturally increased. Li Ziyu now not only has to lead an investigation team, but also handles many specific paperwork for the Criminal Division.
"This case is of high value, but it is also very difficult to solve - how many days have passed, and we don't even know what the murderer looks like." Wu Xiang looked at the materials and asked, "Is there any specific direction?"
"The clue is these two hundred taels of silver." Li Ziyu said, "The local currency reform has been completed and the circulation of silver has been banned. Robbers cannot spend the silver directly after they steal it. They must find a place to exchange it. I think this is the place to start.
You can get the news."
"Then let's do it." Wu Xiang nodded, "You still have several cases at hand, especially the Maojia Inn case. Although it is closed, there are still many clues that have not been clarified. And what if there is one?
The seemingly nonexistent case of counterfeit money... Your burden is heavy enough now. Find someone else to handle this case."
"Yes, I asked Gao Chongjiu to go. He is the most familiar with these underground secret doors."
Wu Xiang did not express any objection, but just reminded him to "grasp the direction." Li Ziyu understood what he meant. After returning to the office, he called Gao Chongjiu and handed over the case to him.
Gao Chongjiu went to Lingao to study with Li Ziyu and was promoted after he came back. However, the future of a retained officer like him was limited. After returning, although he was promoted to two police ranks as a reward and became a "trainee commander", he was still in administrative positions.
A "senior agent" under the command of Li Ziyu.
Gao Chongjiu knew that he was an "old man" and was not trusted by Australians, so he followed Li Ziyu closely, and immediately put down what he was doing and came over when called.
Gao Chongjiu was quite surprised when he read the report record, because Chen Ding said that the place where he was attacked was near the old Wuyang Station outside the South Gate. This was originally a water and land terminal and an important transportation thoroughfare. In recent years, the Senate has done something here again.
Many commercial developments have become more and more prosperous. The flow of people is dense and businessmen gather, so it is a key security area in Guangzhou. There are police security booths on duty 24 hours a day. Not only are there fixed sentries, but there are also mobile patrols patrolling various businesses that make a living in the local area.
Many "activists" have also developed among shops and hawkers to act as informants. In broad daylight, they knocked out a man on the street, stole his money, and transported him to the city... It's incredible that no one noticed such a big move.
.
"...Besides, even if no one saw him, why did the robbers bring him to the city? Isn't this asking for trouble?" Gao Chongjiu said.
Li Ziyu originally thought this was a simple case, but when Gao Chongjiu mentioned it, he realized there was something fishy about it. He hesitated and said, "You mean, Chen Ding didn't tell the truth?"
"It's hard to say. After all, the two hundred taels of silver were just his own words - there was no second evidence. Besides, even if he really brought so much money, he might not have been robbed..."
Li Ziyu understood what Gao Chongjiu meant. There were many people who were robbed and defrauded out of money because they were greedy for petty gains or because of their beauty. They were too embarrassed to tell the truth, so they said they were drugged or robbed.
Stolen.
This put Li Ziyu in a dilemma. He pondered for a moment and said, "What are you going to do now?"
"Call this Chen Ding here tomorrow, and I'll talk to him. See if he's lying. Then I'll find out if anyone has collected any suspicious money recently. Oh, by the way, why is there no mention of money in this record?
Which dumping store’s brand name is it?”
"Probably scraps of silver."
"It would be difficult to deal with the silver if it was broken into pieces." Gao Chongjiu said, "But if the thief was smarter, he would chop the silver into pieces and then redeem it."
Li Ziyu's face was slightly hot. Compared with Gao Chongjiu, he still looked too young. In order to cover up his embarrassment, he coughed and said, "I'll leave this case to you."
"Okay, I will report to you if there is any situation!" After Gao Chongjiu finished speaking, he stood at attention and nodded.
Gao Chongjiu returned to his desk and carefully read the transcripts and the files on the fight case. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't understand. The two cases were obviously unrelated. How could they be related?
Together? He decided to clarify a key question before interrogating Chen Ding: where was Chen Ding knocked unconscious and injured?
Regarding this issue, the files on the Dashi Street Fight Case cannot help. None of the confessions mentioned here mention Chen Ding. It seems that the only way to do this is to ask the relevant personnel and the surrounding "onlookers" in person.
The brawl case that occurred on Dashi Street is still being processed, and the arrested persons are being held in two places. The National Army personnel are detained in the barracks at the school ground in the east of the city. If they want to be interrogated, they have to go through relevant procedures; interrogating citizens is easier.
They are all detained in the city bureau's detention center.
Gao Chongjiu immediately went to the detention center, interrogated the arrested citizens, and showed them Chen Ding's photos, but unfortunately, no one had an impression. He did not give up and applied for a permit from the Guangdong National Army Headquarters.
The soldiers were interrogated and the result was the same. No one remembered that such a person was present at the scene.
Of course, this cannot be used as absolute evidence. At that time, they were fighting in full swing and it was normal for them not to notice Chen Ding.
