After running for a day, all Li Xiucheng got was disappointment.
Fortunately, these are just details, and the value of minerals cannot be faked. At worst, it will just take a little more effort to start over.
At noon on the third day, someone from the county informed them that the contract had been drawn up, and the three of them rushed over with their lawyers to continue reading the contract.
The contract was not very different from what was discussed that day. Li Xiucheng and his lawyer read it item by item, pointed out some ambiguities, made corrections after discussing with Chen Songwen, and finally signed the contract formally.
As the names of the three people were covered with red seals, it meant that Jintong Mining Investment Company had its first business.
It is still a big industry involving hundreds of millions of mineral resources!
Regardless of anything else, this in itself is worthy of celebration.
In the evening, the three of them found the best hotel in the county and held a simple celebration banquet.
Zhao Qiang abided by his duty. After the bodyguards rotated with him, he finished his meal quickly and still refused to drink. Then he squatted at the door and smoked.
At eight o'clock, several people finished their drinks and walked out.
Li Xiucheng, whose face was red, was extremely sober, but Ma Zhijie and Zheng Guangtao were a bit loud-tongued, especially Ma Zhijie, who was making a lot of noise and walking forward with a swaying figure.
The hotel is not far from the guest house, only ten minutes' walk.
I didn’t drive when I came here, so I naturally had to walk when I got back.
The bodyguards and young men gathered around the three of them, and the group walked north across the main street.
At this time, the sky was not completely dark yet, and I could barely see a distance of ten meters away.
There are also many pedestrians on the road. A group of big men walking over will always attract strange looks from others. The timid ones will stand still and not dare to move.
When passing a small bridge, Li Xiucheng saw a slender figure leaning against the stone bridge. The figure had his hands clasped in front of his chest and abdomen, his head lowered, and his ear-length short hair hanging down covering most of his face.
A very ordinary woman!
The bodyguards didn't pay attention and just passed by the woman.
Ma Zhijie, who was stumbling but did not want to be supported, walked forward with empty steps. Just as he passed by the woman, the woman who lowered her head suddenly raised her head and rushed towards him.
The moment his short hair was raised, his hands were already moving forward, and a cold light was drawn towards Ma Zhijie at high speed.
"careful!"
The woman's movement was too sudden, and by the time the last bodyguard noticed something was wrong, a cold light had already fallen on Ma Zhijie.
He screamed and rushed over, but it was too late.
Phew~
A sound like ragged silk rang out, and Ma Zhijie stiffened, pain instantly sweeping through his body.
"Ah~"
While screaming, he turned his head subconsciously, only to see a bright cold light streaking towards his chest.
It’s over!
At this moment, his mind was extremely clear, but his body couldn't react at all.
He couldn't dodge this knife.
Bang~
At the critical moment, a black shadow suddenly flew away and knocked the dagger away heavily. The woman's hand was empty and she jumped out of the stone bridge guardrail without hesitation, and then plunged into the water.
Plop~
The bodyguards ran over to take a look and saw a huge surge of water, but they saw nothing and could not see anything because it was dark and there were no lights here.
It took only a few dozen seconds from the time everyone got on the bridge to the time the woman jumped into the river. Everything happened so fast. It wasn't until Ma Zhijie collapsed on the ground that Li Xiucheng reacted. He knelt down and hugged Ma Zhijie, shouting : "Zhijie, are you okay Zhijie?"
"My waist, back, hurts!"
Ma Zhijie's face was twisted in pain, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words.
When Li Xiucheng took a closer look, his scalp suddenly exploded. Ma Zhijie was injured on his back and blood was pouring out.
He pressed it on the wound, and his palms were instantly soaked.
"Zhao Qiang, come quickly, Zhijie has been stabbed. Hurry!"
Zhao Qiang was directing his bodyguards to search for the murderer along the river. When he heard this, he ran over quickly. When he saw the injured position, his face darkened: "Hurry up and drive over. This is an internal organ damage. You must be sent to the hospital for surgery immediately."
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Zheng Guangtao, who was a little dazed next to him, came to his senses and yelled crazily at the bodyguard in front of him.
Fortunately, the guest house was just a few hundred meters over the bridge. The bodyguards rushed back at full speed, got in their cars and rushed over. Several people got in the cars and went straight to the hospital.
In less than five minutes, the car stopped in front of the county hospital.
Before the car stopped, Zheng Guangtao jumped out of the car and burst into the hospital door with a roar.
"Doctor, doctor, please help!"
The nurse on duty ran out and saw the wounded patient being carried and bleeding, and immediately became nervous: "Quickly, send him to the emergency room and notify the doctor on duty!"
What followed was a flurry of excitement, and more than ten minutes later Ma Zhijie was sent directly to the operating room.
When the corridor became quiet, Li Xiucheng breathed a sigh of relief. He looked around and saw a long wooden chair. He walked over and sat down. He wanted to smoke. When he raised his hand, he saw a thick layer of plasma on his hand. .
He waved his hand and saw that Zheng Guangtao was still standing at the door of the operating room. He stood up and leaned against him with his shoulder.
"Is everything okay?"
"No, it's okay." Zheng Guangtao came to his senses and shook his head sadly. He had a good relationship with Ma Zhijie, otherwise he wouldn't have introduced him to Li Xiucheng in the first place.
How could he not worry when his friend was injured.
"We sent him to the hospital so quickly, it will be fine! Come on, let's wash our hands."
"good!"
The rushing water rushed down, and the undried plasma was quickly washed away. He shook his hand, but Li Xiucheng did not leave immediately. He looked at Zheng Guangtao who was still flushing and said, "Tell me, who did it?"
While they were rubbing their hands together, Zheng Guangtao frowned: "Logically speaking, we have only been here a few days, so we shouldn't have any enemies... No, if I insist on saying that, that Wei Chenchang that day...
And the cruel words he said when leaving...
Could it be that it's really him?
But just to steal a few words from him, it won't lead to murder, right? "
"But we robbed their mines, and we have no one to suspect except him." Li Xiucheng's eyes narrowed slightly, flashing a dangerous light: "The other party chose to attack on the bridge, and then jumped off the bridge immediately after missing a hit, which shows that This man is not only an expert and bold, but also a thoughtful veteran.
It is difficult to catch such people, and Zhao Qiang and the others will probably get nothing. "
"Call the police!"
"Don't put too much hope in those detective reports, and we need to first determine whether Wei Chenchang is behind this incident."
"How to be sure?"
"Find this person first and then see if he is still in the county!"
"Okay, I'll take someone to check right away!"
"First go and inform Chen Songwen. But don't say that you suspect Wei Chenchang did it. Just put pressure on him on the pretext that the security conditions in the county are too poor. Just say that if this matter is not handled well, we doubt whether the county can guarantee it." normal development of the company.
We will reconsider the subsequent development plan, and it is not impossible to even shelve development. "
Putting development on hold means losing a large chunk of tax revenue, and that 'dishonest' Chen Songwen will definitely not be willing to do so.
Zheng Guangtao perked up and said, "Okay!"
And as he left, the whimpering sounds of police officers soon sounded throughout the county.
