When Lu Tao heard Zou Xianghong say that Wu Liangmin had a record of selling drugs, he couldn't help but feel happy. He hurriedly asked Zou Xianghong, "Chief Zou, is he still selling drugs?"
"After we caught him last time, he might have been a little scared, so he stopped selling drugs for about half a year. However, we caught two drug addicts last week. According to them, the drugs they were getting recently were all provided by Wu Liangmin. I reckon that he is now burdened by gambling debts and was pushed too hard by his creditors. He had no choice but to go back to his old ways. We were going to arrest him again, but considering that Li Weijun would still protect him, we didn't take action for the time being. "
Huang Zeke asked, "Chief Zou, how much does Wu Liangmin owe now? Is it high interest? "
Zou Xianghong nodded. "That's right. He borrowed all the money with a high interest of more than 40% per month. Although the amount is only a few tens of thousands, because of the high interest and the fact that the person who lent him the money is the leader of the hooligans in Dalong Town, he is under a lot of pressure to repay the debt now. Just half a month ago, we received a call from the public saying that there was a fight in Stone Pit Village. We went to the scene and saw that it was the leader of the gang who beat Wu Liangmin up and forced him to pay back the money.
"At that time, he was beaten black and blue, and his head was bleeding. When he saw us, he shouted for help. We brought the leader of the gang to the station for questioning. He said that Wu Liangmin owed him 30,000 yuan, and now it's 70,000 to 80,000 yuan with interest. However, he didn't pay back a single cent. Instead, he was playing cards in the mahjong room, so we beat him up — "
Lu Tao interrupted, "Chief Zou, how is your relationship with the leader of the hooligans nicknamed 'Baldy Three'? Does he listen to you? "
Zou Xianghong smiled and said, "Brother, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. If the leader of the local hooligans doesn't listen to you, then there's no need to be the leader of the police station. I've known that 'Baldy Three' since he was on the streets. After I became the leader of the police station in Dalong Town, he wanted to send gifts to my house several times, but I chased him away. If I want him to do something, he won't dare to give me any discount. "
Lu Tao said, "That's good. Who knows, I might look for him one day. When the time comes, I'll ask Director Zou to give him a heads-up and get him to cooperate with me."
Zou Xianghong quickly said, "That's easy. I'll ask him to treat you to a meal one day and introduce you to him. In the future, if you want him to do anything, just look for him directly. Although this person is a big hooligan, he is still loyal and trustworthy. He shouldn't ruin your plan. "
After dinner, Lu Tao finally found a way to expose the truth about Li Weijun keeping a mistress. He started to act according to this idea …
One afternoon at the end of July, Huang Zeke, along with Lu Tao and two other members of the public, came to Stone Keng Village. They started from the west side of the village and visited each household one by one. In the end, only Wu Liangmin was left.
In order to facilitate the contact between Lu Tao and Wu Liangmin, Huang Zeke instructed the other two members of the consolation team to go to the village to sort out the information for the visit. He then brought Lu Tao to Wu Liangmin's house.
It was a run-down red brick bungalow. There were three rooms in a row. In the middle was the main room, on the left was the living room, and on the right was the bedroom.
Because he didn't know if Wu Liangmin was at home, Huang Zeke stood in the hallway and shouted, "Wu Liangmin, are you at home? We're here to give you some money. "
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice like a broken gong came from the bedroom. "I'm here. Are you Mayor Huang? I'm sick. I don't have any strength in my body. I can't get up from the bed. Come in! "
Huang Zeke frowned and pushed open the half-closed door of the main room. He walked in with Lu Tao and lifted the curtain of the bedroom on the right. He looked inside and saw Wu Liangmin curled up on a tattered mat with a red face. He looked at Huang Zeke and Lu Tao at the door with a pair of small, bloodshot eyes. He didn't rush to get up.
The moment Huang Zeke lifted the curtain, Lu Tao felt a pungent smell that almost suffocated him. The smell was a mixture of mildew, foot odor, sweat, and the smell of spoiled instant noodles. Among them, the strongest smell was the smell of alcohol. Judging from Wu Liangmin's red face and the smell of alcohol that filled the room, he must have drunk a lot at noon and was still drunk.
Huang Zeke frowned and patted his nose twice with his hand to drive away the disgusting smell. He stared at Wu Liangmin and scolded, "Wu Liangmin, did you drink too much horse urine again? I warned you last time that the government gave you relief money because they wanted to help you start a farming or farming business. If it really doesn't work, you can just go and farm. In today's society, as long as you are diligent and practical, you can support yourself by doing anything. You, on the other hand, every time the government gives you money to start a small business, you use it to play cards and drink. After you drink it all and lose it all, you ask the government for more. How can you do that? "
Wu Liangmin was probably used to hearing similar words, so he didn't mind Huang Zeke's reprimand at all. He grinned at Huang Zeke, revealing a mouthful of sparse yellow teeth. He suddenly sat up and lifted his disabled left leg, saying: "Mayor Huang, I can't even walk with this leg, so how am I supposed to work in the farming industry? How can I farm? Now my wife has run away, my son is gone, and I'm a cripple without the ability to work. If the government doesn't care about me, then I'll be dead! "
Lu Tao saw that he took the initiative to mention his wife and child, so he immediately asked, "You said your wife and child ran away, what's going on? Why did they run away? "
Huang Zeke saw Wu Liangmin look up at Lu Tao, so he quickly introduced him, "This is section chief Lu from the county's local tax bureau. He came to our town to help out. You can answer his questions first."
When Wu Liangmin heard that Lu Tao was from the local tax bureau, his eyes lit up. He grabbed Lu Tao's hand and said, "Leader, are you really from the local tax bureau? Your local tax bureau has a lot of money, so you might as well help me out! I don't ask for much. Your bureau just needs to give me a thousand dollars a month in relief money. To you, a thousand dollars is just a hair on a cow's body, right? As long as you agree to help me out, I'll set up a sign outside the shrine for you. Every day, I'll burn incense for you to bless you with promotion and wealth. How about it? "
Huang Zeke heard that his words were getting more and more outrageous. His face was ashen as he shouted, "Wu Liangmin, what nonsense are you talking about? What kind of person do you think section chief Lu is? What kind of sign does he want you to set up and burn incense? Hurry up and let go of your hand. If you continue to mess around like this, I'll deduct a few hundred dollars from your compensation today! "
