Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

The time when the Xie family visited Hongcun was exactly the time agreed by Hong Chengli and Hai Changchun to smuggle goods.

This incident was too coincidental, so Hong Chengli called Hai Changchun to explain: "Chairman Hai, I'm really sorry, I never dreamed that the distinguished guest of the Xie family would suddenly come to Hong Village..."

Hai Changchun said in embarrassment: "It's such a big thing, and Village Chief Hong didn't know anything about it? It's very difficult for me to do anything if you suddenly change your mind!"

Hong Chengli said, "Alas, I am helpless too. Their purpose is to inspect military affairs along the coast. They passed by Jiangtou City and decided to come and take a look. Tell me, how could I get the news in advance? If I had known this, I would not have made the business appointment with Chairman Hai today."

Hai Changchun said helplessly: "Okay, then let's forget about our business."

Hong Chengli said hurriedly: "No, we can't let it go. My cooperation with Chairman Hai is related to the jobs of tens of thousands of people in Hongcun. For my sake, please give Hongcun this opportunity."

Hong Chengli seemed a little excited: "Today, Hong Village has two happy events. On the one hand, it proves to everyone our relationship with the Xie family. On the other hand, by cooperating with Chairman Hai, we have opened up a channel for high profits... You have helped the Hong family, and I am absolutely grateful to you!"

Now that things have come to this, Hai Changchun can no longer refuse.

Because he was setting a trap for the Hong family. Now that the trap had been dug, Hong Chengli wanted to jump into it, and he couldn't stop him.

In addition, the relationship between the Hong family and the Xie family seems to be really good. In case Hong Chengli jumps into the pit and is then fished out by the Xie family, Hai Changchun will have to leave a way out for himself.

At least before the Hong family is completely destroyed, he has to behave like a good friend and a loyal person.

Hai Changchun sighed: "When do you think the time is right? If it takes too long, it will be difficult for me to do my job."

Hong Chengli said: "The Xie family is just here to reminisce about the past and pay homage to the ancestors of the Hong family. Two hours is enough. Once they leave, all the ships of our Hong family will set off immediately!"

"You also know how the Hong family feels right now. Even if there's a knife on their necks, they won't leave the village. After all, no one wants to miss the opportunity to get in touch with the Xie family."

Hai Changchun sighed: "Okay, in that case, I will let the cargo ship on the sea wait for Village Chief Hong for two hours... If Village Chief Hong does not show up when the time comes, we will not be able to proceed with what we agreed on before."

"Don't worry, we will be there on time." Hong Chengli's attitude was very good, and he was almost swearing.

Hai Changchun ended the call, thought for a moment, and sent a message to Chen Zixing: "Are you ready?"

A few minutes later, Chen Zixing replied with two letters: "ok"

Hai Changchun continued to edit text messages and communicate with Chen Zixing.

At this time, Chen Zixing was in the Anti-Smuggling Bureau, drinking tea and chatting with Director Liu.

Director Liu said with a big smile on his face: "Secretary Chen, thank you for giving me this opportunity to make a contribution."

Chen Zixing frowned, fiddled with his phone for a while and said, "Be patient, the operation will be postponed for two hours. Be careful not to leak the news."

……

There was a lively atmosphere in Hong Village, with every household decorated with lights and colorful lanterns. At the entrance of the village, there were loud gongs and drums and firecrackers, as if the New Year had suddenly arrived.

At the entrance of the Hong Clan Ancestral Hall.

Hong Chengli personally ran to the front of the vehicle and opened the door of the Xie family's car.

Xie Zehua walked down with a smile on his face and said, "Village Chief Hong, you are too polite. I just came here to reminisce about the past. There is no need to make it so grand."

Hong Chengli said excitedly: "Mr. Xie, for you, this is a reminiscing of the past, but for us in Hong Village, this is decades of kindness. How can we not be excited and give you a grand welcome?"

Xie Zehua nodded, turned around and waved to the Hong family members around him.

This action immediately caused cheers like a landslide and tsunami.

Hong Chengli said: "Mr. Xie, and everyone else, let's go into the ancestral hall and talk!"

Xie Zehua nodded and said, "Okay."

Accompanied by Hong Chengli and the deacons and elders of the Hong family, the Xie family burned incense to the ancestors of the Hong family and chatted with everyone in the Hong family.

Afterwards, Hong Chengli invited Xie Zehua to the reception room to talk alone.

After the two of them sat down, Xie Zehua said with a gloomy face: "Village Chief Hong, I need to make it clear to you that I came to Hong Village not to support you, nor to cover up your illegal and disciplinary violations. I was only entrusted by Secretary Liu of Chaojiang City to come here to help."

When Hong Chengli heard this, a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

What Liu Fusheng said was true. His relationship with the Xie family was thousands of times better than that between the Hong family and the Xie family.

An important person like Xie Zehua was actually invited by him to Jiangtou City for help. I would like to ask, who in the entire eastern Guangdong Province can have such a great honor?

"Mr. Xie, don't worry. I have completely turned over a new leaf. Besides, I have no intention of evading responsibility. Now I am helping Secretary Liu to make amends. When the matter is done, I will deal with it as I see fit. I plead guilty and accept the punishment!"

Hong Chengli said sincerely.

Xie Zehua nodded: "Not only you, but the rest of the Hong family must not do anything illegal."

Hong Chengli said: "I know, even if I risk my life, I will control them!"

……

Jiangtou City waters.

There were several large cargo ships anchored on the dark sea. All the lights on these ships were off, and if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to find any trace of them.

An hour ago, the ships should have abandoned their cargo and sailed away.

However, due to some unexpected circumstances, the people who receive the goods will be two hours late, and these large cargo ships can only stay where they are and wait for the receiving team to arrive.

The captain of the largest cargo ship was a foreigner with a red beard. He was smoking a cigar and said impatiently, "These Chinese have no sense of time. Is there anything more important than making money in this world?"

Another person said: "More money, we have to pay more. They caused us to lose so much time, they must compensate us."

While they were complaining, a lookout on the bow suddenly shouted, "Captain, there are lights in the distance, and many ships are approaching us!"

Hearing this, Red Beard threw away his cigar and said, "The person who is taking over the goods has finally arrived."

"Notify other ships and have the sailors cheer up and get ready for work!"

At the captain's command, the sailors on several smuggling ships all went into work mode.

As the ships approached, a sailor suddenly said, "Captain, something seems to be wrong. They haven't responded to our signals."

The captain frowned and said, "No response signal? Aren't they the ones who are going to hand over the cargo? Warn them immediately and don't come any closer!"
