Xu Fei did not believe Black Tiger's words. He asked Old Xu, who hated evil, to investigate. If he had committed a crime, he would definitely be dealt with according to the rules of Yellow Mud Hillock.
If he hadn't, he could work at the construction site and follow the engineer to become moderately wealthy.
Small Lake Town was only a dozen miles away from Yellow Mud Hillock.
It would only take a few words to reach the border.
Gradually, many modified "four-not-alike" vehicles appeared on the roadside.
These vehicles were basically a rectangular chassis with four wheels, a diesel engine in the front right, a driver's seat in the front left, and a carriage in the back. They could be used to transport soil, bricks, and stones. They were more useful than the eight-wheeled vehicles for construction sites.
Including Old Xu's site in Large Swamps, they had assembled more than a dozen of these vehicles.
As for whether they could be considered agricultural machinery...
It was difficult to define, but at least they were not legal vehicles.
Currently, these "four-not-alike" vehicles were all guarded by the Yellow Mud Hillock militia, while Old Xu stood at the intersection, intercepting agricultural machinery going to and from Small Lake Town.
With their military green uniforms, stylish wide-brimmed hats, shiny three-star badges, eye-catching armbands, and enforcement cards, they looked quite imposing.
"This dad is really domineering!"
Xu Fei didn't approach because Old Xu wasn't randomly stopping people.
He let the tricycles and quad bikes of relatives pass directly.
For those who were transporting construction waste for the Small Lake Town Science and Technology Park, they wouldn't be fined or have their vehicles confiscated. They were allowed to go directly to Large Swamps. If Zeng Dahe paid you 2 yuan more than me, I'll pay you 2 yuan more!
For those who were delivering building materials for the Small Lake Town Science and Technology Park, they were also allowed to go to Large Swamps. After all, I could also make use of them.
As for other vehicles, such as the "four-not-alike" and the four-wheeled dump trucks that belonged to Zeng Dahe, they could only be impounded and fined.
This operation naturally wouldn't provoke the anger of Small Lake Town.
However...
"Comrade, why don't you check him? He's carrying two children, and I'm empty!"
"We're only checking illegal modifications today, we're not concerned about anything else."
"Comrade, his vehicle chassis has been raised, but mine is brand new."
"We're only checking dangerous driving today, and you're overloaded."
Perhaps after causing a commotion late into the night, Zeng Dahe was alerted.
Or perhaps Zeng Dahe had woken up.
At 8:30 in the morning, two deep green Polaris vehicles escorted an imported Cadillac Fleetwood, which was worth over two million yuan, and parked two hundred meters away.
A bald fat man, twisting a purple sandalwood bead, wearing a white suit, slowly got out of the car.
As he left, the valuable luxury car seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, the ten Golden Cup Grandsea vans behind Xu Fei opened their doors, and hundreds of strong men jumped out.
Without any greetings, they all rushed forward.
When enemies meet, there is no need for unnecessary words.
"Damn!"
Seeing this, the bald fat man cursed angrily and directly pounced into the open back seat of the car. "I knew it! This lunatic dared to shoot me before, and now he won't let me go. Let's go!"
After speaking, he saw the burly man in the driver's seat frantically turning the car key, sweating profusely. "Boss, the car broke down."
"..."
"Pull it out and fight, don't dirty the car. We can't afford to compensate!"
"..."
On the other side.
"Hei Hu, I won't treat you unfairly. When you see my cousin, say hello to him for me. Tell him that I will visit you two in a while and take care of some things."
"..."
…………………
Iron Toy Factory.
In the evening, Xu Fei saw Old Xu, who had been busy for a day and night.
"Old man, to be honest, I still prefer seeing you in this outfit."
"Is that so?"
Old Xu fell silent for a moment. "Actually, Cheng Guang came to me at noon and talked to me in the name of the organization."
"What did he say?"
"He doesn't want me to resign now. He gave me two choices: either go to Dongming to be the head of the security bureau, or go to the Criminal Investigation Brigade in Swamp City to be the deputy team leader."
"Higher than before? What are you planning to do?"
"Cheng Guang just arrived in our Swamp City. He suddenly got involved in this matter and must be under a lot of pressure. I won't trouble him.
Besides, there are over three hundred people at the construction site. We've been shouting slogans and making development plans recently. Even our plan to travel around the world after retirement is almost finalized.
If I leave now, how will those old comrades who came from far away to support me when I was at my lowest point look at me in the future?"
"It's good as long as you've made a decision."
"Then I'll go back. Let the security of the toy factory pay attention. I'm worried that Zeng Dahe will seek revenge."
"It's fine, I have dogs."
"Huh?"
"Hundreds of dogs."
"..."
Old Xu fell silent once again and left in a gloomy mood.
Xu Fei was a bit puzzled as he looked at Da Ma.
"What's wrong with my dad?"
"I guess he's worried that you're embezzling."
"When did I embezzle?"
"Everyone in Yellow Mud Hillock knows, except for you?"
"Huh?"
"Paying the dogs' salaries."
"Isn't that normal?"
"Where did the money go?"
"I'm saving it for them. I buy buns for them every day."
"Alright."
Da Ma shrugged and left the Factory Director's office.
Xu Fei watched his back and pondered for a moment. Then he looked at the three secretaries. "Am I embezzling?"
"How is that possible? Our Factory Director Xu is very upright!"
"That's right."
Saying that, Xu Fei returned to his desk, turned on the computer, and created a document.
The document mainly described the harm that the Dahai Chemical Fiber Factory posed to the Iron Toy Factory.
Employees were anxious and confused after inhaling harmful gases.
Employees suffered from unbearable abdominal pain after drinking contaminated water.
After spending a lot of manpower and financial resources, the toy factory finally found the source of pollution: Dahai Chemical Fiber Factory.
The last blank space was left for the employees to sign.
After Xu Fei finished his work, he printed several copies. "Secretary, start the third round of recruitment. Tell the applicants from our hometown that as long as they sign the whistleblower letter, they will be given priority."
"How many should we recruit?"
"300 people."
"Alright." The secretary was about to leave when she saw the content on the paper. "Director, Dahai Chemical Fiber Factory is only about thirty miles away from us."
"The wind is blowing this way, it's winter, and the wind is strong."
"But they are in our southwest corner, even in summer, the wind can't reach there."
"Do you think the leaders are as clear as you? I wrote it so seriously, maybe the leaders think the chemical fiber factory is right next to our toy factory."
"Really?"
"You need to learn to think in reverse and put yourself in others' shoes. Think about it, you are a high-level executive who sits in the office all year round, let alone going to the countryside, even going to the county, there are not many trips in a year. I suddenly give you a real-name letter, which describes the situation very seriously, what would you think?"
"Something big has happened!"
"And then?"
"Shut down the chemical fiber factory!"
"That's it."
"..."
"In the future, you must learn my two tricks: reverse thinking and empathy."
"I've learned a lot, Factory Director."
"Go, after you finish, give it directly to Cheng Guang and let him pass it to the East Mountain Mansion."
Xu Fei turned off the computer, sat in the rocking chair next to the stove, and thought carefully about what had happened in the past two days. He felt that there was nothing wrong, and it was enough for Zeng Dahai to be busy for a while.
"Factory Director, General Manager Huang has sent a sales summary, and the foreign trade merchant has also made a statistical report. Would you like to take a look?" The secretary came over with a folder.
"Okay."
As time went by, the Mechanical Three Kingdoms entered its explosive period.
The first batch: Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Diao Chan.

The second batch: Ma Chao, Wei Yan, Zhang Liao, Cao Ren, Huang Yueying.
The third batch: Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Sun Ce, Lu Meng, Taishi Ci.
The fourth batch (in production): Jiang Wei, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Cai Wenji, Xiao Qiao.
Others: Demon Lu Bu, Phoenix Da Qiao (in production), Wei Wu Cao Cao (to be produced).
In 20 days, nearly 5 million sets of Mechanical Heroes were launched in the Japan market, but they didn't make a splash.
And the small amount of goods put into the East Mountain Supply and Marketing Cooperative, 500,000 sets, although it caused a sensation, it did not clear the warehouse.
According to the information obtained by the foreign trade merchant commissioned distributor:
Buyers in Japan are mostly between 8 and 45 years old, with an average purchase quantity of 5 to 8 pieces, and 10 war horses.
That is to say, there are only 1 million actual owners of the 5 million sets of Mechanical Three Kingdoms.
According to the statistics of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative:
Buyers in East Mountain are mostly between 14 and 25 years old, with an average purchase quantity of 1 piece, and 0.1 war horse.
In addition, there are 60,000 sets of remaining inventory.
The sales department led by Old Huang evaluated: the overseas sales are too cheap, and the domestic sales are too expensive.
The operation center suggests: increase the overseas price by 10 times, and decrease the domestic price by 0.5 times.
The strategist team concluded: the overseas price is 5 times higher, but a unique mark is needed to make it 'export only', and it can also be placed on the domestic Supply and Marketing Cooperative counter. With this comparison, there is no need to lower the domestic price.
"The overseas price is too high, how to accumulate Lego? The domestic comparison, those who can't afford it still can't afford it."
Xu Fei picked up the carbon pen and wrote a few strokes, "Rejected, discuss again!"
"Also, tell the three departments, if they can't come up with a plan before tomorrow morning, they will be sent to the construction site collectively!"
