C216 The Truth of the Old Lady

Fan Wenbin had carefully examined his grandfather's grave several times, but he did not discover any loopholes. The fist-sized hole was also tightly sealed, and there was not a trace of human activity from the outside.

At this moment, the mountain wind was getting stronger and stronger. It swept up the sand and dirt, and along the narrow and long ravine, it howled as it ran all the way. This famous red ravine within a hundred miles was immediately enveloped in a vast expanse of wild wind and sand.

It seemed that there was nothing wrong with the tomb of the old ancestor. Facing the cold wind, Fan Wenbin closely patrolled the yellow earth piles that had buried several generations of ancestors. His heart was filled with a strong sense of desolation.

Ever since the Qing Dynasty's Qian Long period, Fan Clan's first ancestor, Fan Shide, and the old lady escaped from the wilderness and came to Daan, Fan Clan's several generations of people had been ferrying to the Fan Clan by the Yellow River. They had lived for over two hundred years in the ancient history and were closely linked to these yellow earth piles.

When his grandfather, Fan Zhengkun, lived, during the Qing Ming Festival every year. . . He would always bring his descendants here and offer their graves to the old ancestors. Furthermore, to the people buried in every grave. . . After a few simple reviews, in the end, He would summarize it into a very bleak sentence, "The old ancestor of the Fan Family, Under the great locust tree in Shanxi, thousands of miles away. . . Escaping from the wilderness all the way here, it was indeed not easy. "

Every time he heard this sentence and looked at the orderly piles of yellow soil, Fan Wenbin could not help but have a lot of mixed feelings in his heart. Many years later, he would also become a pile of yellow soil here and reunite with the old ancestors underground.

People, when they were alive. . . They fought for fame and fortune, and they fought to the death. There were so many differences, but once they closed their eyes. . . Lying on the ground, he looked like a dead man. . . Very soon, you would become a pile of dirt in the ravine, known as' graves'. There were some graves. There were even descendants offering sacrifices, but there were also some. They became solitary graves, the people buried inside. They also became wild ghosts.

At this moment, there was nothing wrong with his grandfather's grave. Fan Wenbin immediately felt a trace of relief. After returning from the Fan family's old camp, the heavy depression in his heart also dissipated a lot, and he felt much more relaxed. On this day, Fan Wenbin was processing the documents that were piled up, and Ning Peng quietly walked in.

During the period when the boss was not in the company, Ning Peng had to deal with the internal affairs of the company, and from time to time, he had to supervise the ecological restoration project of the Yellow River. Sometimes, he was very busy.

He knew that Duan Xiangmei's accidental death had a huge impact on Fan Wenbin. Although it was not a fatal blow, it was more or less the same. At present, the chairman was in a special period of pain and was unable to extricate himself. As the general manager, he could only do it on his behalf.

It was fine to be busy. The most important thing was that the second largest shareholder of Hucheng Group, Vice-Chairman Zhou Boyi, would come to the company every few days. He would either point his finger or draw his feet. He would pick his nose and pick his eyes, as if he did not like everything and was very dissatisfied.

Regarding this, Ning Peng was very unhappy in his heart, but he was also very clear about his position in the company. Hence, on the surface, he welcomed him with a smile. He tried his best to welcome this vice chairman and vice chairman of the board of directors of the company who had just taken office a few days ago.

In a board meeting before Duan Xiangmei met with misfortune, because he was the second largest shareholder, Zhou Boyi was successfully elected as the vice chairman of Hua City Group. He was also the vice chairman of the board of directors, and his position was only inferior to Fan Wenbin.

As the saying goes, there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys call themselves kings. As for the second in command of the company, Ning Peng looked down on him from the bottom of his heart. He secretly thought that Zhou Boyi was just a person who was very good at adapting to opportunities, and was also very good at following the superior path.

A few months ago, Li Fan, the former Credit and Loan Division Chief, was suddenly detained by the police for no apparent reason. He shocked the highest level of Hefeng Financial Group, and at the same time, he gave a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to Deputy CEO Zhou Boyi.

She tightly grasped this fleeting opportunity and tried to push away the former Bank President. Then, she got the appreciation of the Hefeng Financial Group's boss, Mr. Zhao Yingzhe, and sat proudly on the seat of Hefeng Bank's Branch President.

Now, she had jumped up and became the second-in-command of Hucheng Group. She felt that she was very impressive. Not to mention to Ning Peng and the other senior entrepreneurs, she even criticized and criticized the company's founder, Fan Wenbin. She could not even see it in her eyes.

Compared to the original vice chairman of the company, Pang Chengchuan, Zhou Boyi was even more arrogant and domineering, which caused many senior employees to be extremely dissatisfied. They complained to Ning Peng one after another, and there were even some who proposed to resign and leave. Dong Mi, Zhao Yu, was one of them.

Perhaps it was the nature of jealousy between women, but the moment Zhou Boyi went on stage, he picked out the bones in Zhao Yu's work and picked out many flaws. He even scolded her fiercely in front of her face, making Zhao Yu cry on the spot.

For a moment, it caused Ning Peng to be at a loss as well. He could only persuade those old employees with good words to prioritize the company's overall situation and do their own jobs well. Don't talk nonsense and play tricks on others.

"Director Fan, that's the situation. " Ning Peng gave a very simple and comprehensive report to Fan Wenbin about the important situation that had happened in the company recently. After that, he patiently waited for the next instructions.

Although the two of them were good old classmates, Ning Peng had always grasped a principle in the company. He was the director of the board of directors, and also the general manager of the company. He was Fan Wenbin's subordinate, so he definitely had to distinguish between big and small, and even offend the superiors below.

Fan Wenbin was very clear about the things that Ning Peng had said. Some of them even involved Zhou Boyi. In order to not cause internal strife again, he could only turn a blind eye and not interfere too much. However, he had a very firm and insurmountable bottom line in his heart, which was that he could not harm the interests of Hua Cheng Corporation.

Actually, although he was depressed and stayed at home alone for a period of time, according to the instructions from before, Dong Mi, Zhao Yu, used the phone to reply to Fan Wenbin in a very timely manner. Basically, it was feedback once a day. If he encountered a major matter, he would report it at any time.

"Director Fan, with you in charge of the company, I feel relaxed too. " After a while, Ning Peng said with a smile, "During this period of time, I have indeed been very busy. When you came, I was in charge of the mess at the Yellow River. As for the rest of the matters, I shouldn't worry about them, so I won't worry about them.

This was the truth. Ever since Zhou Boyi interfered in the management of the company, Ning Peng had been secretly annoyed, but at the same time, he gradually had the intention to let go of the company's management. However, it was not good to tell Fan Wenbin about this matter. He could use the name of supervising the recovery and management of the Yellow River's ecological environment to leave the Hua Cheng Group headquarters.

Fan Wenbin also smiled slightly. He thought for a moment, and exhorted, "Old classmate, the stall by the Yellow River is very important to the company. You must supervise to the end. There must not be any more problems.

Ning Peng understood Fan Wenbin's words very well. After Wan Laifu's accident, the police came once every few days to understand the cause and effect of the incident in detail. It made the farmers and migrant workers panic, and it also made Ning Peng very unhappy, but he had to cooperate with the investigation.

"Director Fan, don't worry. I will do my best to supervise until the end. " He had always carried out Fan Wenbin's exhortations very seriously. The Yellow River ecosystem restoration project was the Hua Cheng Group's most important project at the moment. It had already invested a lot of funds, so he had to pay a lot of attention to it.

Fan Wenbin knew Ning Peng's social ability and the ways of the underworld very well. Occasionally, he had to secretly develop a feeling of admiration. Although he had been in the business world for more than 20 years, sometimes, he was not as capable as Ning Peng's methods.

After joining Hucheng Group, to be honest, Ning Peng had indeed put in a lot of effort for the company. Especially at some crucial moments, in order to protect the company's interests, he had dared to step forward bravely. This was also one of the reasons why Fan Wenbin thought highly of him.

A little while later, Ning Peng lowered his voice again, revealing a very mysterious appearance. He whispered, "Recently, I heard some rumors that the disk Wan Laifu dug out was not an ordinary disk, but a rare treasure. The police are searching with all their might. "

After he finished speaking, his eyes stared at Fan Wenbin, who was very close to him. This kind of rumor was something he heard from a few people who were also eating when he was eating. At that time, he was still disapproving of it.

Later, when the police investigated the reason why Wan Laifu was beaten to death, they also asked about the whereabouts of the disk many times. This attracted Ning Peng's attention and gave rise to a strong sense of regret.

That morning, if he did not listen to Wang Jianguo and took the disk from Wan Laifu on the spot, it would have been fine. Of course, at that time, no one knew about this disk. Was it a treasure or not?

After Wan Laifu suddenly died, according to Fan Wenbin's orders, Ning Peng quietly made a trip to Wan Laifu's house on a night that had just fallen, and saw the lonely old lady.

Sitting on Wan Laifu's clay bed, he talked about a lot of pitiful and cheap things and gave her 5,000 yuan for a silent fee. Only then did he completely give up the idea of getting an explanation for his son.

Then, Ning Peng asked the old lady tactfully, Did you see her son take back a black disc? If she had seen it, she would give it to him. The disc was used by the engineering team to serve vegetables. Wan Laifu had taken it home, and he wanted to take it back now. Otherwise, the boss would scold him and deduct his salary.

As she spoke, she gestured with her hands for a long time. Only then did the old lady understand. After thinking for a while, she said that when her son was still alive, Wang Jianguo also came to the house to ask for the plate. Later, another woman came and also asked for the plate from her son. As for who her son gave it to, she was not sure.

The old lady's answer made Ning Peng secretly shocked. He increasingly believed that the plate was a rare treasure. Otherwise, Wang Jianguo would not have chased Wan Laifu's family to ask for it.

Could it be that this old man already knew the value of the disk and had always been consciously hiding it from him? Thinking of this, Ning Peng suddenly realized that this Old Wang who looked simple and honest on the outside was also very cunning.

As for that woman, where did she come from and who she was, it immediately aroused Ning Peng's special vigilance. He gave the old lady a hundred dollar bill and earnestly asked her to think about whose family that woman belonged to.

The old lady took the money and thought for a long time. She said something that disappointed Ning Peng but also gave him some hope. "That woman is in her forties. Judging from her accent, she didn't come from the county. She seemed to be from Jing'an. I don't know what her name is. "

Ning Peng knew that Jing'an was a village in Daan County. It was located in the downstream of the county, about 100 kilometers away from the county. It was very remote and very poor. Before he transferred to Mei Tanxiang to be the village chief at the beginning of the year, Gao Yeyong had been the deputy village chief of Jing'an for many years.

It seemed that if that rare treasure was not in Wang Jianguo's hands, it would definitely be in the hands of that mysterious woman. From the old lady's words, Ning Peng quickly came up with a plan for the operation.

However, what he did not expect was that even though he racked his brain to think of all possible ways to get the whereabouts of the disk from Wang Jianguo, in the end, he still failed.

Today, the reason why he wanted to tell Fan Wenbin this very top-secret information was that Ning Peng wanted to use the other party's hands to find out the final whereabouts of the disk as soon as possible. Then, he would fish in troubled waters, follow the clues, find that rare treasure, and take it for himself.
