Chapter 248: Qiantun Brigade 5

Zhao Guoliang, feeling uneasy, relaxed his stiff expression, then said to the people in front of him as if nothing had happened, "This... I don't quite remember..."

When Zhao Shuanzi heard what his cousin said, he immediately became anxious. "Cousin, why don't you remember? Isn't the execution of our brigade under your jurisdiction?"

You know, the hard-earned money Gu Lei gave him in the morning had just been put into his pocket and was not even warm yet.

If he fails with his cousin's money, he will not be willing to return the money he has earned.

"Over the years, the educated youth who came to our brigade to work in the countryside have come and gone so frequently that I really can't remember at the moment if there is such a person."

Then, Zhao Guoliang pretended to look at Gu Lei casually and asked tentatively, "You have come all the way here, is there something important? Could it be that this Liao Zhiqing has committed some crime?"

The change in Zhao Guoliang's expression just now was clearly seen by Gu Lei and the other person sitting opposite him.

Now seeing Zhao Guoliang's probing, the two knew that the man opposite him might really have information about Liao Hong. But for some unknown reason, Zhao Guoliang flatly denied it.

Thinking of this, Gu Lei hurriedly took out his previous remarks and repeated them to Zhao Guoliang.

"After all, it's been so many years, it's understandable that you didn't think of it for a while."

"But this matter is indeed very important to our family, so Captain Zhao, could you please recall it carefully again, just as a favor to us." As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Lei pushed over the envelope that he had prepared in advance.

Looking at the thickness of the envelope on the table, one could tell that the amount inside was not small. This made Zhao Guoliang, who was already greedy for money, hesitate immediately. "This... I'm afraid it's not good..."

Seeing the other party's inner hesitation, Gu Lei directly increased the stakes, took out another envelope, put it on the table and pushed it over.

"This matter is really important to us, otherwise we wouldn't come here in this cold winter weather!"

Zhao Shuanzi, who was standing by, widened his eyes when Gu Lei and the others took out the second envelope. "Brother, you see, it's not easy for these two kids either. Just give them a hand and help them think about it carefully!"

Zhao Guoliang finally couldn't stand the test of money. He took the envelope on the table and said to Gu Lei and the others with a smile, "Since you all say so, then I'll accept it!"

Gu Lei laughed upon hearing this, "As you should! No matter what, it's our arrival that has caused you trouble."

"What's that plug? The water in my water tank is almost gone. Help your sister-in-law get some water from the well!"

Zhao Shuanzi looked at his cousin in bewilderment and asked, "Ah? Fetching water?"

Zhao Guoliang looked at Zhao Shuanzi, who showed no reaction, and said in a more serious tone, "Well! Go quickly!"

Seeing his cousin winking at him, Zhao Shuanzi finally realized that there might be something he was saying that was not convenient for him to hear.

So Zhao Shuanzi obediently walked out of the room and very tactfully closed the door.

After everyone left, Zhao Guoliang told Gu Lei and the others about Liao Hong.

"This comrade Liao Hong you're talking about, although he came to our place to join the queue, he never showed up at all."

"When I was picking someone up in the county, Li Guanghua, the educated youth office official, gave me fifty yuan and told me not to worry about the missing person."

"Plus, food was scarce in the village before, and these educated youths couldn't do much work after they arrived, and they had to share the food from the brigade. So I simply turned a blind eye and pretended that these people didn't exist!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Lei and Gu Yousheng looked at each other with an expression of "as expected". It seemed that their previous guess was true.

"When the educated youth returned to the city, what happened to Liao Hong's return documents? Did they have the certificate and stamp from your Qiantun Brigade?"

Since he had already told Gu Lei and the others what he had said before, Zhao Guoliang didn't hide anything. "Later, when the educated youth were allowed to return to the city, Secretary Li Guanghua came to me again and gave me 100 yuan, so I helped to prepare the certification materials and stamps."

At this point, Gu Qingyu's previous judgment can be basically confirmed. It seems that their trip to the Northeast can be successfully concluded.
