Chapter 36 Wheels and Fuel
The wheels stolen from the county compound are certainly no small matter.
Yu Yang hurried downstairs and found Colonel Zhou who was in charge of security.
The latter received the news and looked back.
Good guys, three Santanas and two small police cars were neatly carried by red bricks on the side of the provincial road. They looked quite spectacular.
"I arranged for people to keep an eye on me all night, but all my hard work is gone?"
"What should we do, let the police officers in the convoy move?"
"They are not familiar with this place. I'm afraid they are blind. The Shili Camp Police Station has no experience in this area?"
"That's pretty rich."
"Contact them and investigate quickly while it has just been stolen. You also send people to look for it."
Yu Yang immediately called the office and arranged for villagers from Yujia Village to use agricultural machinery to block the bridge opening.
Then they mobilized 156 strong men of their own and more than 300 laborers on the ground to seal off the scene and investigate one by one.
So, half an hour later.
Facts have proved that the officers in Shili Camp are indeed experienced.
As usual, none was found.
The director felt regretful and worried at the same time, "There is nothing we can do. It has been more than two minutes, and we have missed the best opportunity to arrest him."
Fortunately, a few vegetable vendors joined in the fun and provided important clues.
"Boss Yu, they are a group of people driving off-road jeeps. There are three vehicles and a dozen young people. They move very quickly."
"They arranged for four or five people to pretend to join in the fun and block the rear, while the people behind were squatting on the ground to remove the wheels."
"From the time they jumped out of the car to loading up and running away, it only took the blink of an eye."
"Finally I saw them running through the bridge opening towards Han Gai."
"Han Gai?"
Hangai, Buddha Temple, and Shiliying all belong to Pingdong County and are considered brother townships.
The director immediately called the other side, "Yes, three off-road jeeps, what? They ran towards Beihe?"
Yu Yang lit a cigarette, "Are you from outside?"
The onlookers nodded solemnly, "It must be true. Rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests. All the local ones go there..."
Before he finished speaking, the director of the township investment promotion office pinched him, and the villagers quickly changed their words: "Ah, we locals are very responsible."
Yu Yang looked at the county supervisor who looked very unhappy after receiving the news.
"Leader, you also heard that it was not done by our locals."
"Too outrageous!"
"Yeah, that's why people from other provinces are so arrogant... Shall we chase after them?"
Upon hearing this, the county supervisor looked at the increasing number of Steyr semi-trailers on the roadside, as well as the many laborers gearing up, carrying wrenches and pliers.
In a daze, I could still vaguely hear the mayor of Shiliying giving instructions in a low voice: "I'm telling you, when you get there, grab the valuable equipment, dismantle it first and then move it, and move quickly..."
"What's the most valuable?"
"We are building a factory for transformers and electrical substations. We are in urgent need of them. We also have water pumps and pressure supply pumps..."
The county supervisor's eyes were like daggers, "Head Huang, what are you doing?"
The township chief turned around with a serious expression on his face, "Back to the leader, I'm telling them that when they get to other people's territory, they must behave honestly and not cause trouble. Even if they are beaten, they must endure it."
The county supervisor stared at Township Chief Huang for a long time, then waved his hand and said, "Let's break up. Contact the county first and ask them to send the wheels over."
"Leader, can we still find this wheel?" Yu Yang asked for instructions.
"No more looking for it!"
If you look for wheels across provinces, look at the situation, I'm afraid it's not going to cause a big trouble.
Besides, he knew why Shiliying often lost its wheels.
This matter starts from the big pot rice era.
Shiliying worked hard to apply for two wheeled tractors from the county, but on the night they drove back to their hometown, the wheels were stolen.
Later, the militia company investigated and found that it was done by Beihe, so they snatched it back overnight.
The reason why the towns on the other side of Beihe came to Shiliying to steal wheels was because their wheels were also stolen. Now they finally got two sets, but they were robbed again. How could they be happy? So the two sides went back and forth, and the dispute lasted for more than two years.
Later, Nan He got involved for some unknown reason.
This gave the wheel thief an opportunity to fish in troubled waters. After the other party sold the wheel, he also tasted the benefits and became more active, so that more and more towns were affected.
As things have developed so far, at least seven or eight wheel-stealing gangs are active at the junction of three provinces and four cities.
Cross-county police investigations are inherently troublesome.
Cross-city investigations are even more troublesome.
Cross-provincial investigations are extremely troublesome.
It was already an extremely troublesome matter. After many negotiations in the four cities, a team was finally formed and determined to clear out the wheel-stealing gang.
Unexpectedly, the team was robbed as soon as they set out on the road.
…
From the perspective of Shiliying people, losing a wheel is normal.
After expressing his position to the elders in the county, he went about his own business and ignored the matter.
It was as if nothing had happened, including the Shiliying Police Station.
Yu Yang wanted to catch the thief who stole the wheel.
But the enemy is hidden and we are clear, and the other party has not taken action against the vegetable seller's agricultural machinery for more than half a month, which shows that he is giving Yu Sanyuan face.
Now is not the time to have a stalemate.
Unless you can find the other party's hiding place, you can catch them all in one fell swoop.
Yu Yang thought over and over again and found a few familiar vegetable sellers from the scene to ask them to pay more attention to the discarded wheels nearby. Unexpectedly...
"Boss Yu, we have never lost any wheels, but the oil in the tank is often low."
"Boss Yu, I just filled it up the day before yesterday, but it was gone yesterday. The car didn't move at all."
"Mine is the same. Now I don't even dare to park on the dirt road into the village."
"I put it in the parking lot, but nothing happened."
Yu Yang's heart moved and he walked towards the five cars that had lost their wheels.
Let someone start up and look at the dashboard, and sure enough...
Not only was the wheel missing, but the oil was also gone.
At this moment, someone complained again.
"Boss Yu, you may already know that you can make money by selling bean sprouts. Those robbers seem to be targeting us recently."
"Yes, I was robbed twice at the junction of Nanhe and Hangai. Now I don't dare to go there."
"There are also people squatting on the three roads leading from the Buddha Temple to Beihe."
Arrogant!
Too arrogant!
Yu Yang cursed in his heart, but his face showed no expression, and he didn't let his family move.
Because biting dogs don’t bark…
No, the county supervisor is still here.
If we summoned manpower on the spot and mobilized a team of a thousand people to pursue across provinces, it would not only make it difficult for the county supervisor to come to power, but also make it impossible for the other party to explain to his superiors when things get serious.
So this matter will have to wait until the county supervisor is on the road.
When the rice is cooked into porridge, the other party will probably be very happy.
After all, losing the wheel is quite shameful.
Then there is.
This matter must be cut through quickly and ruthlessly.
Because my family is in the wholesale business, and the other party is squatting around the vegetable seller, it is equivalent to cutting off my own financial path.
Stealing oil from Yujia Village is even more disrespectful.
If this situation is not restored, the bean sprout business will be difficult to do in the future.
