Chapter 206 Confirmation of Conjecture
Although his guess has been confirmed, to be on the safe side, Mr. Zhang decided to find someone to confirm it.
Mr. Zhang picked up the phone beside him, took out the phone book from the drawer, found the man's phone number, and dialed it.
After a while, the call was connected and an old man's voice came from the other end, "Who is this?"
"It's me, Zhang Lingfeng," replied Mr. Zhang.
"Lao Zhang, how come you have time to call me today?"
Mr. Zhang said directly, "I want to ask you about someone."
"Who are you asking about?"
"Liu Weihua."
The voice on the other end paused for a moment, "Liu Weihua, why are you asking about him?"
Zhang Lao lied, "He is the brother of a martyr in our army.
The martyr had a child, and he was the only relative left to the child.
I want to find him to confirm the identity of the child."
The old man over there sighed, "Something happened to him, and he was demoted. You should find another way."
Although his prediction had been confirmed, Mr. Zhang still asked, "When was he sent down, and where was he sent down?"
"In September this year, I really didn't know where I was sent to."
Zhang Lao frowned and said, "There must be someone over there who knows. Can you ask for me?"
The person on the other side paused for a moment, then said, "Someone should know.
Hang up the phone first, I'll make a phone call and call you back later."
"Okay, thank you."
After saying that, Mr. Zhang hung up the phone.
After waiting for a few minutes, the phone rang. After Mr. Zhang picked up the phone, the person on the other end readily told him the address, which happened to be the place where Liu Jingxue went to the countryside.
The other side reminded, "Lao Zhang, you are aware of the current situation, so I won't say more.
He was promoted by Lao Zou and is a trustworthy person.
This time I went there, I also wanted to overturn the verdict on Old Zou and make those people angry.
Although I knew he was wrongly accused, I couldn't save him.
Try not to involve him in your affairs.
Letting those people forget him is the best way to protect him."
"Don't worry, I won't disturb him," Mr. Zhang assured.
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Zhang thought quietly for a while.
The matter is very clear. Liu Jingxue went to the countryside to see Liu Weihua and his wife.
After the two of them were sent down to the countryside, someone must have told Liu Jingxue their sent-down address, and then Liu Jingxue signed up to go to the countryside.
As for those in Xinshi, they said they were going to join their uncle in the army, probably because they didn't want the news of their uncle and his people being demoted to be spread out.
Elder Zhang looked at Xiao Ran who was standing there quietly waiting, "Did Liu Jingxue have any contact with those people who were sent down?"
“It’s not clear.
However, when Liu Jingxue went there, the production team's youth camp was no longer able to accommodate them.
She rented a house in the village and lived alone.
And the house happened to be not far from the cowshed, and there were no other houses nearby."
"Did any of the educated youth go to the production team with Liu Jingxue?"
“Yes, that group of educated youth included Liu Jingxue, a total of two men and three women.
The others were all staying at the Youth League Center, and it was full, so there was no room for Liu Jingxue. "
Xiao Ran recalled something and continued, "But what's strange is that the team leader there had people clean up the house a few days before the educated youth went to the countryside.
It’s like they knew in advance that the educated youth would come and that the educated youth camp couldn’t accommodate them, so they would rent a place there.”
"The brigade cadres must know that the educated youth are coming, and they have to arrange accommodation and food for them," said Mr. Zhang.
But what he was thinking in his heart was that someone must have told the captain in advance, so he was prepared.
And that person is probably Lao Zou.
Liu Weihua must have put a lot of effort into arranging him and his wife to live with Lao Zou, probably with the intention of taking care of them.
This guy is indeed a good person, and it's worth it that Old Zou has been promoting him.
Mr. Zhang asked, "Does their production team have a telephone?"
“The production team had no electricity or telephone.
But I got the phone number of their commune secretary's office.
Previously, Liu Jingxue had made contributions in reporting and arresting human traffickers, and the higher-ups sent people to present banners and rewards, and the commune secretary also went, so we were considered acquaintances. "
As he spoke, Xiao Ran took out a piece of paper from his pocket and placed it in front of Mr. Zhang.
He was glad that he had foresight, otherwise he would have disappointed the leader this time.
Mr. Zhang nodded approvingly, "You are always careful in your work.
Remember to keep what you found out this time confidential and don’t let anyone else know.”
Xiao Ran saluted and said, "Don't worry, Commander. I am familiar with the confidentiality regulations and will never disclose them."
"I trust you, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen you to do this job for me," Mr. Zhang praised.
Mr. Zhang reminded him, "You must be tired after running around outside for so many days.
Don't rush back to work, rest at home for a few more days and spend more time with your wife and children."
"It's not hard to work for the chief."
"I'm fine here, you go back and rest."
After Xiao Ran left, Mr. Zhang sat there, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
It seems that I don’t have to worry about Old Zou anymore.
Since the child has gone down to look after his uncle and aunt, he will definitely take care of Old Zou, an old leader who has done his uncle a favor.
And the captain obviously has connections with Lao Zou, so he will definitely take care of him secretly.
Even the fact that Lao Zou was sent down to that production team might have been arranged by him.
This old fox even kept it a secret from himself.
I was anxious and angry because no one was picked up at the place I arranged to go, but I didn't expect that I and those people were tricked by him.
It has been delayed for so many days, I guess Old Zou is getting impatient, and it’s time to write a letter to tell him about what’s happening in Youguo.
However, it will take a lot of time to send the letter, so I'd better call him first to let him know the news and reassure him.
I also talked to Liu Jingxue.
Thinking of this, Mr. Zhang picked up the phone beside him and dialed the number Xiao Ran left.
After a few beeps, the phone was connected.
"Hello, this is the Qianjin Commune Government Office. I am Yan Xuewen."
Zhang Laodao said, "I am Zhang Lingfeng.
You are the secretary of the Qianjin Commune."
"Yes, I am the secretary of Qianjin Commune," Secretary Yan replied.
But he was thinking in his heart, Zhang Lingfeng, why does this name sound so familiar.
Secretary Yan is also a retired soldier, so he is naturally familiar with the names of the top military leaders in Xia State.
When he remembered who Zhang Lingfeng was, his voice changed and he stood up suddenly.
He used too much force and the chair fell to the ground with a bang.
Secretary Yan held the microphone with trembling hands, "You are Commander Zhang, the Commander Zhang of the XX unit."
"it's me."
"Hello, Chief. I am Yan Xuewen, a retired soldier from the XX Army, reporting to you."
Although Chief Zhang couldn't see it, Secretary Yan still gave a standard military salute.
Hearing the noise coming from the other side, Zhang Lao hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, hello Comrade Yan.
Don't get excited. I came to you today because I want your help with something."
"Master, please give me your orders. Yan Xuewen will not refuse even if it means death."
“It’s not that serious.
Do you know Liu Jingxue, an educated youth from the Red Star Production Brigade over there?"
When Secretary Yan heard this, of course he knew Liu Jingxue, Liu Zhiqing.
"Commander, I know him."
“It’s good to know her, I want to find her.
But it's too late today, so tell her to come to your place at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning to answer the phone.
It should be okay for me to use your official phone to talk to her about something personal, right? "
"It's okay, Commander, you can call me.
But Taoist priest, may I ask, what is your relationship with Liu Zhiqing?"
Mr. Zhang was just thinking about letting people know that Liu Jingxue was not alone in taking care of her, and that he was standing behind her, so he did not hide it.
"You know she's the daughter of a martyr, right?"
"I know this."
Zhang Laodao said, "His father has been under my command since the time when we fought the Japanese invaders. He is one of my old subordinates.
She's just like my own granddaughter."
When Secretary Yan heard this, he didn't expect that Commander Zhang valued Liu Zhiqing so much. It seemed that the tractor quota promised to the Red Star Production Team next year must be fulfilled and not snatched away by others.
"Don't worry, Commander. I'll tell Liu Zhiqing to come answer the phone on time at 10 a.m. tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
