Chapter Seventy-Four New Situation

  The power supply is still unstable and the electricity went out again in the afternoon, I will try to update once or twice a day, if not possible, I will at least ensure continuous updates, thank you for everyone's support!

  The case was not going smoothly, and everyone in the office felt a bit down.

  Especially Yang Hua, who came all the way from the county, was given instructions by Secretary Zhou before he left. The Huanghe Wine Factory is no longer an ordinary collective enterprise.

  The winery involved foreign investment, so the county government attached great importance to this case and required the county bureau to crack it within three days.

  It was for this reason that Yang Hua, who had just taken over as head of the county bureau, personally went to Huohe Township to urge the criminal police detachment to crack the case as soon as possible.

  But unexpectedly, a seemingly ordinary murder case turned out to be shrouded in mystery.

  There are many clues, but none of them can withstand investigation, as if all of this was a false appearance deliberately created by the murderer.

  "Go to Wang Guixi's hometown?" Yang Xinhua was taken aback by Deng Xiancheng's words.

  "Not bad, we learned from Wang Gui's loved one Yang Juan that Wang Gui has a younger brother in the countryside. Over the years, it was Wang Gui who supported his brother to study. We also learned that Wang Gui's younger brother Wang Bo graduated from high school and joined the army. He returned home two years ago after being discharged and is now working as a farmer at home."

  "So we want to go and investigate, to see if Wang Guixi had any enemies in his hometown before he married into the Yang family." Deng Xiancheng's idea was approved by Yang Hua. Since the lead had been cut off, they might as well follow another thread, who knows, maybe there would be a breakthrough.

  "Knock knock knock..."

  A knock at the door outside the office, Yang Jie sat by the door and casually opened the office door to see Old Zhao from the winery's technical department standing outside with a somewhat hesitant expression, as if hesitating about something.

  "What's wrong, Old Zhao?" Yang Xinhua asked with concern as he saw Old Zhao's hesitant face.

  "Director, there's something I don't know if it's related to Director Wang's death!" Old Zhao's words shocked everyone, and as soon as he spoke, they caught the attention of all present.

  "Old Zhao, don't stand at the door, come in and talk!" Yang Jie, who was standing at the door, stepped aside to let Old Zhao in.

  From the moment he saw Old Zhao at the door, Yang Jie saw a hint of hesitation and tension in his expression, knowing that Old Zhao must have understood something, so Yang Jie hastily invited Old Zhao into the house.

  "Director, last time some foreign merchants came to the winery, Yang Jie went to the technical room and got some wine. During this period of time, I feel that some things in the technical room have been mysteriously moved by someone."

  A few days ago, I reported this matter to Director Wang, and he said that nothing was lost and would notify the security department to investigate. As a result, after a few days, Director Wang was actually killed.

  Moreover, after Yang Jie went to the technical room at noon today, we returned to the technical room in the afternoon and found that someone had also rummaged through the wine bottles outside the technical room. Our notes also showed signs of being rummaged through, which is why I felt that something was not right." As Old Zhao spoke these words, Yang Jie and Yang Xinhua exchanged a glance without saying a word.

  Yang Jie originally made the Yangyang wine and antihypertensive wine in the technical room, many people in the winery knew about this, and before Jimmy and others left Xunhe, Yang Jie took some time to make another batch for them to take away.

  In addition to Jimmy's investment in the Yuhe River Winery, Yang Xinhua also went to the Discipline Inspection Commission to make an explanation. Jimmy invested in the Yuhe River Winery mainly because the Yang family had mastered two functional wine formulas, rather than because of the winery itself.

  It's been less than half a month since Jimmy and the others left, and the winery has had one thing after another. It seems that Wang Guixi's death is not just a simple homicide case, but may also be related to the winery's formula.

  To know that Jimmy invested 500 million US dollars, only accounted for 30% of the company's shares, which means that the two formulas of the Yang family are worth nearly 1 billion RMB, this is a huge sum of money, and it's not surprising that someone is jealous.

  "Yang Jie, go get Yang Li right away and ask if Guixi has ever told him about this matter." A sharp glint flashed in Yang Xinhua's eyes, and a fierce aura burst forth, the murderous intent in his words making Yang Hua and Deng Xiancheng feel shocked.

  Yang Jie nodded and walked out of Yang Xinhua's office with big strides.

  Lao Zhao's micro-expression told him that what Lao Zhao said earlier was true, he is an honest man, a former technical personnel of the municipal state-owned winery, who was laid off and then invited by Yang Xinhua to join the Yanjiang Winery, responsible for the blending of the original wine and the development of new products.

  Various signs indicate that Wang Guixi's death is closely related to the employee stock allocation and the functional wine formula.

  Yang Li was originally a scout soldier, after retiring from the army he worked in a winery and was an old employee of the Yanhe Winery. Being from Yangjia Village also made Yang Xinhua trust him, so he let him be the head of the winery's security department, responsible for all the security work in the factory.

  "Yang Li, the other day, did Guixi tell you about the winery's technical department?" Yang Jie asked straightforwardly after finding Yang Li at the security office.

  "What's wrong with the technical room? Director Wang didn't tell me anything!" Yang Li's expression seemed genuine, and Yang Jie's heart sank at his words.

  "Uncle Jie, I just heard Yang Bing and the others say that Director Wang's brother Wang Bo has arrived in our village. They saw him at noon today. You say Director Wang just had an accident, and Wang Bo is in Lanyue Village. Even if he received the news and rushed over, it wouldn't be this fast, right?" As soon as Yang Li spoke, Yang Jie's face suddenly changed.

  Wang Bo's appearance was beyond Yang Jie's expectation. Just now, Deng Xiancheng said he wanted to go to Wang Guixi's hometown to investigate, but unexpectedly Wang Bo came to Yunhe Township, and it was the same day his brother was killed.

  Lanshan Township is located at the foot of Fuxin Town Mountain, which is nearly 80 kilometers away from Henghe Township. The mountain road is rugged, and even if Wang Bo took a car early in the morning, it would be impossible to arrive in Henghe Township by noon.

  That is to say, Wang Bo may have arrived in Huanghe Township as early as yesterday.

  "Yang Li, what you said is very important. Director Yang from the county bureau has arrived and he's in the director's office right now. He wants to see you, so go over there and report this matter to him personally!" As soon as Yang Jie finished speaking, Yang Li stood up quickly and followed Yang Jie out of the security department.

  "Jie Shu, what happened in the technical room that you mentioned earlier?" Yang Li suddenly remembered and asked anxiously as he walked.

  "Lao Zhao said that these days, someone sneaked into the technical room and moved their laptops and wine. He reported this to Guixi, didn't he tell you?" Yang Jie saw that Yang Li was really unaware, so he briefly told him what happened.

  "This can't be!" Yang Li heard the words and immediately became anxious. The factory had been stolen, which meant that he, as the head of security, was derelict in his duty. "Isn't the winery going to merge with Wuyang Wine Industry? The factory director said that the foreign representatives haven't arrived at the winery for auditing yet, so we must ensure that not a single brick, tile or screw is lost. He gave me a strict order, if anything goes missing, I'll have to go home and take care of my kids. I'm always staying in the factory, how could it be possible for thieves to get in?"

  Everyone in Yangjia Village knows that Yang Xinhua is not a heartless and ungrateful person. Although he has taken over the winery, he has never treated its employees unfairly. Wuyang Wine Industry was jointly established by Yang Xinhua with foreign investors. How many assets does the winery have? Which employee of the winery doesn't know?

  Others invested hundreds of millions in cooperation with the winery but only got a small share, can't be that they value this piece of land?

  It was precisely because of this that Yang Xinhua's joint venture with foreign merchants, Wuyang Wine Industry, did not arouse the suspicion of some people in the village, and the workers in the factory were also more able to view it with an ordinary mind.

  "My dad is like that, he's strict with things but not with people. Since Old Zhao said there was an outsider in the technical room and he also mentioned it to Guixi, so I thought of asking you to ask around and see if any outsiders have come to the factory recently. Don't worry, it's not targeting you." Yang Jie hastily explained as he saw Yang Li getting anxious.

  "Uncle Jie, I didn't take it to heart. Since I'm the head of the security department, I have to be responsible for the safety of the winery." Yang Li smiled and looked at Yang Jie beside him, asking: "I heard that from now on, the factory director will become the chairman of the board, and the specific work of the winery will be managed by foreigners, is that right?"

  Yang Li had actually wanted to ask about this matter for a long time, and this question has been troubling the workers at the winery.

  "Yang Li, the future development of Wuyang Wine Industry will exceed all of your imaginations. My dad has exhausted his energy managing a small factory with over 200 people, do you think he can handle an enterprise with thousands of people?"

  Moreover, attracting investment is not only about introducing foreign capital, but also about introducing advanced management experience from others, learning from their management experience, and making our winery regularized, branded, scaled up and internationalized, laying a solid foundation for the future export of winery products to earn foreign exchange.

  Foreigners are not man-eating tigers, last time Jimmy came to the winery, didn't you see him? As long as we follow the rules and regulations of the winery, whoever comes to manage it will be the same, so don't worry!" Yang Jie said this and patted Yang Li's arm with a smile, then strode towards the direction of the factory office.
