Chapter 286: Chapter 286 The Net of Heaven Has Large Meshes, But It Lets Nothing Through

However, it was only because of the child in her womb that Tian Li’s life was temporarily saved.

At first, Tian Li kept complaining about stomach pains, and as a result, two gynecologists were always by her side. Now, whether she would confess was no longer a big concern, since Yu Jing knew much more than everyone had imagined.

A large net slowly and quietly cast a year ago was now gradually tightening.

Wu Xiujie finally couldn’t resist making a move against the Buddha Tower. His actions were indeed very cunning, creating an exact replica of the Buddha Tower and a Shariputra, but he was still caught on the spot. If it hadn’t been for the surveillance that had been placed on him in advance, it really wouldn’t have been possible to catch him red-handed.

From Wu Xiujie’s residence in Xichuan, equipment such as a radio transmitter, surveying instruments, as well as Tom’s diary and maps were discovered as evidence.

Wu Xiujie, Wu Peng, and other personnel were all detained.

This case was beyond the jurisdiction of the local police in Xichuan, so someone from the higher authorities came and took them away. Moreover, Doctor Lu, who had infiltrated the enemy’s ranks, also revealed all the ongoing experiments and the laboratories.

Mr. Shi, the rightful owner of the twelve national treasures, finally saw the light of day again.

Because of these twelve national treasures, Mr. Shi and his son were targeted by a terrorist organization. Fortunately, our comrades discovered them in time and brought them to a safe place for protection, but his property had long been looted.

The main culprits were Wu Xiujie and an almost worldwide international anti-China organization backing him.

This organization was very mysterious; no one knew who was in charge, but they did know that this organization had a powerful base in every aspect.

Wu Xiujie was just one of their minor leaders.

Pulling up a radish did not bring out much dirt, and the path to development was arduous and long, but as long as we were strong, these issues would fade away on their own.

Wu Xiucai could finally appear openly in front of his daughter.

By this time, the National Day had arrived. Wu Xiucai had originally planned to go to the Qiao Family Team, but after thinking it over, he decided to contact He Xiuyu and He Shan first, planning to explain the situation to Qiao Qingyu and then bring her to the Qiao Family Team.

When Qiao Qingyu heard about this, she immediately stood up from her chair.

Looking at He Xiuyu standing in front of her, she furrowed her brows and asked, "Is everything you said true?"

"Yes, it’s all true," He Xiuyu said in a grave voice. "It’s just that because of Wu Xiujie, this matter has been kept secret for a while. I also just found out."

The two went over the causes and consequences together, and Qiao Qingyu clenched her teeth in anger. "This Wu Xiujie is just too detestable."

Not to mention the past, just recently, in an attempt to obtain her blood, he had Zhao Gang push her out of the car, which must have taken a lot of effort. Furthermore, Zhao Gang did not commit suicide; his wife pushed him down the stairs. His wife was the one developed by Wu Xiujie, and her lover was her superior, so all of these people have been arrested.

Each one of them was a natural actor; it was truly a waste they weren’t on the stage.

This time, from Beijing to Xichuan, and even to Yun City and other places, a total of over a hundred people were arrested.

It really was a major operation.

But catching so many people was a good thing, especially the base.

Without these obstacles, certain tasks would no longer be hindered.

He Xiuyu quietly watched Qiao Qingyu, and only when she calmed down did he speak again, "Mr. Wu Xiucai has had it hard. He knew where his long-lost daughter of nearly fifty years was yet didn’t dare to acknowledge her."

Qiao Qingyu was silent for a moment. She had a good impression of Wu Xiucai, and though she had only met him once, she now believed in the blood ties and affection. He had even brought her many tasty treats.

"When is Mr. Wu arriving?" Qiao Qingyu asked.

"He’s taking a chartered flight and should arrive directly at the base tomorrow morning."

"Then I’ll call home now."

He Xiuyu checked the time; someone would be at the team at this time, and notifications were sent out morning and evening, "Go ahead and make the call. Tell your mother the whole story yourself. This is good news; everyone should be happy."

Qiao Qingyu slowly curved her lips into a smile. "Yes, of course, this is great news."

It wasn’t because of the man’s status or wealth but because the old man was indeed her biological grandfather and her mother’s biological father.

Her mother’s family finally had someone.

Qiao Qingyu went to make the call, and Accountant Zhang answered. He hadn’t gone to work in the fields. Harvest time was nearly finished, and he was in the middle of doing accounts. Upon hearing it was Qiao Qingyu, he went on excitedly...

He talked about how high this year’s yields were, how since production quotas were allocated to each household, besides handing in the public grain, personal granaries would be filled to the brim. This year, quite a few families also grew dandelions; after drying, along with the medicinal herbs grown by the team, were all bought by the provincial medicinal herb factory, and almost every family earned about ten yuan.

He also mentioned admiringly, "Qingyu, many people are learning Qiao Genbao’s technique for setting up greenhouses, and our county plans to promote it vigorously this year. Furthermore, your dad, Old Qiao, and Qiao Shengbao even turned waste into treasure. The name of your Old Qiao Family really fits; everything is a treasure..."

Qiao Qingyu patiently waited for Accountant Zhang to finish talking, then she asked him to call her parents over, as she had something very important to tell them. Accountant Zhang hurriedly said, "Oh my, you should have said so earlier. Okay, I’ll go right now."

After he hung up, he locked the office door and ran towards the Old Qiao Family’s home. He didn’t know what it was about and regretted his earlier chatter. However, he assumed it was nothing too serious, or Qiao Qingyu would not have listened so patiently.

With that thought, he felt reassured but quickened his pace.

At this time, He Xiuyu was cooking dinner outside, while Qiao Qingyu sat on a chair, suddenly reflecting on what Wu Xiucai might feel upon arriving at the poor and backward Qiao Family Team.

He would probably be upset.

She also wondered if he would look down on her father.

Perhaps... he would.

Although life at home had improved significantly, such living conditions, in Wu Xiucai’s eyes, were probably like what their servants lived before the liberation.

Qiao Qingyu sighed secretly.

Just then, there was the sound of conversation from the kitchen. It was Zhu Guizhi coming in with a basin of white steamed buns with pork and radish filling.

She called out to Qiao Qingyu, who hurried over and took the buns with a beaming smile, "These are pork and radish buns I made as an extra dish for your family."

Zhu Guizhi was delighted; she had made a contribution. Although there was no official commendation, she had returned to her former position, and her salary had even been increased by a level. After all, she had indeed exerted great effort in this special operation.

The base even awarded her a bonus of one hundred yuan.
