Chapter 470: Successful Rescue
“Who are you?!” The biggest official the village chief had ever seen in his life was the leader of the village. He had never seen such a big scene. On the other hand, his nephew’s face was pale.
“You’re from the provincial office?!” He asked with a trembling voice, but everyone ignored him.
“Miss Xia, what do you need us to do?” The leader actually walked respectfully to Xia Wanyuan.
“Go and search him. Him and him, their homes.” Xia Wanyuan raised her hand and pointed a few times. The person she had pointed at had his legs go limp on the ground.
The people in the provincial hall were well-trained. In less than five minutes, they returned with a pile of things that they had searched for. They even brought back a few disheveled and chained people.
“Everyone, take a look for yourselves. These are all the accounts he received from the kickback. Also, the land allowance the country gives everyone every year has been divided between him and his people.”
There were people in the village who knew how to read. They looked at the account book and immediately looked fiercely at the village chief who was usually harmonious. “You even deducted our blood, sweat, and money. Are you still human?!”
After tearing open a gap, what happened next became especially simple. The anger of the villagers burned. In addition to the words of the sorcerer and Xia Wanyuan, everyone very much resisted the original village chief. This time, all of them raised their hands to agree to repair the road, and they had no more objections.
Following the village chief and a few other families in the village that sold women and children, the provincial government caught the special-cla.s.s human trafficker, w.a.n.g Xiuzhi, who had been hiding outside for a long time. Over the past few days, she had brought a girl who had just been kidnapped to check the goods for the person who had bought a wife in the village. Coincidentally, she was stopped in the village.
This person had been in cahoots with a few people in Dongshan Village for a long time. The provincial government had rescued five people who had been kidnapped from the village. Other than one who was an orphan and insisted on staying here, the others strongly requested to go home.
One of the university students who had just been abducted and had yet to negotiate the price strongly requested to return to Beijing with Xia Wanyuan and the rest. The provincial office found Xia Wanyuan, and Xia Wanyuan looked at the delicate and disheveled person not far away and agreed.
“CEO Xia, the matter is settled. When are we going back?” Shen Qian walked to Xia Wanyuan.
“Let’s go back in the afternoon. Has the sorcerer been settled?”
“It’s settled. Don’t worry, he’s completely ours now. His family belongs to this village. The villagers trust him so much. With him around, it’ll be easier for us to do things.”
“Mm,” Xia Wanyuan said and walked towards an off-road car that had been parked at the entrance of the village. Shen Qian followed behind her and opened the front pa.s.senger seat to sit in.
However, when he buckled his seatbelt, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Shen Qian turned around and looked. Then, obvious shock appeared on his usually calm face.
As a person in the business world, everyone knew Jun s.h.i.+ling, who was a legend at the top of the business world’s pyramid.
Ever since he entered the Qing University, Jun s.h.i.+ling had been a legend in Shen Qian’s heart. After he started his own business and worked hard, this legend had become a distant and unreachable legend.
And now, this legend was sitting behind him, hugging his boss with gentle eyes. Shen Qian even suspected that he was hallucinating.
“CEO Jun?” Shen Qian called out tentatively.
“Mm,” Jun s.h.i.+ling replied and nodded at him. Shen Qian was excited. He glanced at Xia Wanyuan and Jun s.h.i.+ling a few times before tactfully turning his head and remaining silent.
“You’re quite accurate.” Jun s.h.i.+ling stroked Xia Wanyuan’s hair.
“CEO Jun, you taught me well.” Xia Wanyuan’s eyes curved up, causing Jun s.h.i.+ling’s heart to skip a beat. However, out of consideration for Shen Qian, who was sitting in front, he could only suppress the impulse in his heart and pull Xia Wanyuan’s hand.
At that moment, someone knocked on the car window. It was someone from the provincial office.
“h.e.l.lo, Miss Xia. I’m sorry. This kidnapped young lady, w.a.n.g Liu, is very carsick. Our police car is not as good as your car. Can you let her take your car down the mountain?”
“Sure.” The provincial government had helped ther his time, so Xia Wanyuan’s att.i.tude towards them was very amiable.
“Then thank you. Come, w.a.n.g Liu, take this car down the mountain..”
