Take Along A Spring

The villagers of Poplar Gully wanted to make a big fuss out of this, or else their assessments would be gone. Along the mountain road that was just repaired, more than a hundred people walked majestically to Qingshan Town, wanting to find Alcalde Chen for an explanation.    

    

Alcalde Chen was not like Yang Guoqing, he flew into a rage once the door was blocked. He confidently stood on the steps of the town hall, and under the protection of the policemen who came after hearing the news, he spoke frankly with the hundreds of people and hundreds of people from Qingshan Town who were watching:    

    

"Fellow villagers, our town's government has never promised to build the second grade national highway. I wonder where everyone got the news from. This is purely a rumor!"    

    

Before the crowd could react, Alcalde Chen continued to shout, "Fellow villagers, please think about it. Could the country possibly approve the construction of a secondary road for a village? "Our country is still very poor right now, we don't even know the roads in many places, and even using electricity is difficult. It's impossible to build a village-level highway into a State-level 2 highway, isn't that a waste?    

    

Alcalde Chen was worthy of being an official for so many years. His words were truly extravagant, clear, and logical. No one could find fault with him!    

    

The Poplar Gully people were confused, Alcalde Chen was right, using his butt to think it was impossible for the country to build a grade 2 highway into a village mountain road, and the person in charge of setting up the project was not an idiot, how could he make such a low level mistake?    

    

It was all because of Yang Guoqing. He had cheated the innocent feelings of his fellow villagers, using the name of repairing the road as an excuse to distribute everything to his fellow countrymen. He had reaped the wealth from his own private affairs and pocketed the hard-earned money of his fellow countrymen into his own pocket!    

    

"Alcalde Chen, you, an old man, have to seek justice for your fellow villagers!"    

    

"Alcalde Chen, you have to capture Yang Guoqing. What he embezzled is all the hard-earned money of his fellow villagers!"    

    

"Alcalde Chen, hurry up and give the order to capture him. We can't let that bastard Yang Guoqing escape!"    

    

"Alcalde Chen …"    

    

The villagers of Poplar Gully used Alcalde Chen as their savior. At this moment, it seemed as if only Alcalde Chen was able to save everyone from their abyss of suffering, and only Alcalde Chen was able to punish Yang Guoqing, who was full of crimes!    

    

"Fellow villagers, fellow villagers!" Alcalde Chen's mood was also very agitated. He waved his hands and said, "Fellow villagers, don't be agitated. On behalf of the government, and on behalf of the people, I give you my word. Please be assured, fellow villagers, that I, Chen, will return justice to you all!"    

    

"Alcalde Chen, you really are a good person!"    

    

"Alcalde Chen, the villagers won't forget you!"    

    

"Long live Alcalde Chen!"    

    

Yang Fann sat in the Ford Raptor not too far away, coldly watching everything that happened in front of the town's government gate.    

    

Yang Guoqing gifting the money to Alcalde Chen was a private act of the two of them. There was no recording or video recording, and Alcalde Chen didn't even know how to write a receipt for Yang Guoqing, so there was no proof at all.    

    

In other words, as long as Alcalde Chen didn't admit it, Yang Guoqing would not give him any gift nor money.    

    

As for the payment Yang Guoqing received from the Poplar Gully villagers to fix the road, sorry, Alcalde Chen didn't know that it was done by Yang Guoqing himself, it had nothing to do with the government, and nothing to do with Alcalde Chen!    

    

What was there to say about this, everything was because of Yang Guoqing. He had deceived the villagers of Poplar Gully, using the name of cultivation as an excuse, he had coveted a large amount of assessed contributions. This was a crime, a classic crime!    

    

Therefore, Alcalde Chen decided on the spot that he would ask the comrades from the Qingshan Town Police Station to head over with the villagers to Poplar Gully and bring Yang Guoqing back to the police station for scrutiny. If he really committed a crime, then he would not be able to escape justice!    

    

Seeing this, Yang Fann did not need to continue watching. Yang Guoqing's ending could be guessed without even thinking. The prison was doomed, and even the deities would not be able to save him.    

    

Unless Yang Guoqing could come up with evidence to prove that the assessments he received from the villagers were all given to Alcalde Chen, that is, to the town's government. If he couldn't prove it, then the only way left for him was to go to jail!    

    

Yang Guoqing didn't have any evidence at all. If it was a young person, they would probably choose to transfer the money to Alcalde Chen, but how could Yang Guoqing transfer the money? Even if he transferred the money, Alcalde Chen had already expected this to happen and would only accept the cash.    

    

Amidst the cheers of the Poplar Gully villagers, Yang Guoqing was brought to the police car, and directly drove straight to the Qingshan Town along the mountain road that was just repaired with the payment from his stall.    

    

Not only did the police car take Yang Guoqing away, it also took away the hope of the people of Poplar Gully. Hopefully, Alcalde Chen, that good official, would be able to make decisions for the people and bring back the blood and sweat from the villagers!    

    

It was not just Yang Fann who knew what was going on. There was more than one who guessed that Yang Guoqing had been made a scapegoat by Alcalde Chen, but these people did not say anything because the majority of the villagers held great hope for Alcalde Chen. If they said it out loud, it would only attract the displeasure of others and would not have any effect.    

    

At this point, even if Yang Fann was willing to help, he wouldn't be able to save Yang Guoqing.    

    

It could be said that Yang Guoqing only got what he deserved today. If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted money, he wouldn't be fooled by Alcalde Chen's words of promise. He agreed to accept the payment from the villagers and even became Yang Guoqing's scapegoat!    

    

Yang Fann had warned Yang Guoqing before, but Yang Guoqing still refused to give up. If it wasn't for Yang Fann's use of force to force him to resign, he would have fallen deeper and deeper into trouble. Once something happened, it wouldn't be as simple as it was now, and it might even be a crime of losing his head!    

    

Everyone was responsible for their own actions. Yang Fann had helped Yang Guoqing more than once, not sparing to offend him or use force to force him to resign, and he had already done his best to help Yang Guoqing. If Yang Fann did something illegal for him, Yang Fann would not do it.    

    

Although Yang Fann did not feel that he was a good person, he still had his bottom line. Yang Guoqing made a mistake and got punished for it, even if Alcalde Chen was the scapegoat, it was all because of his greed, it had nothing to do with the people from Poplar Gully, and nothing to do with him!    

    

Yang Fann could find an opportunity to expose the true face of the old fox Alcalde Chen, but he wouldn't do anything against the law just to get Yang Guoqing out. He would deal with a bastard like Alcalde Chen sooner or later, but that depended on whether there was a chance or not.
