843. Western Suburbs Farmers' Market
The tall and thin old man looked at Gu Chen with a curious expression, then looked at Lu Weiwei beside him, and immediately smiled and said, "Almost, the reservoir environment is suitable for release." ”
Gu Chen's face showed a primitive smile, as if this was the result he wanted to hear.
Officer Wang coughed and said, "Then you don't sell aquatic products to outsiders here, do you just use them for buyers?"
"It's been bought out, and the seafood here is all exclusive. The bearded man seemed a little impatient, and responded directly: "But if you want to buy a few individually, maybe you can buy some, but buy in large quantities, I'm sorry, you better find another one." ”
Seeing that the specific situation of the Hongshan Reservoir had been clarified, Gu Chen felt that the direction of the investigation should be shifted.
The situation on the reservoir side is very clear, most of the released aquatic products have been caught by the two people and stored in the room warehouse.
After that, around the wee hours of the morning, it will be shipped to the market by the buyers who have bought out.
At least this industrial chain seems to be a closed loop of wealth, and all links go back and forth, and then it is these leeks that are paid for and released.
But Gu Chen didn't know whether this matter was directly related to Xingyun Monk or not.
After all, it is the Xingyun monk who purchases aquatic products, and these leeks are according to the requirements of the Xingyun monk, and the release activities must be carried out in a unified manner.
To be precise, it is necessary to have a sense of ritual.
At least let the Nebula monk recite the scriptures, right?
As for Liu Qiuxiang and Wang Xiuqin, who didn't listen to persuasion, it was because they were released without permission that they made a big joke.
All the released small snakes not only bite passers-by, but may even be caught and shared by local residents.
What happens after you catch it? It's a dish or a jar of wine, and you don't expect the local people to be so conscious that they'll choose to release the animals into the wild again or something.
In this way, in fact, the release of Liu Qiuxiang and Wang Xiuqin is actually a disaster.
But the release activities organized by Monk Xingyun are obviously much more advanced than Liu Qiuxiang and Wang Xiuqin, at least the aquatic products can be recycled.
In the hut, Gu Chen symbolically bought some fish and loaches.
After the title was settled, the tall and thin old man made up a few more.
I saw him smiling, and said happily: "It's a waste of time for you this time, you can't fish here, these are for you, go all the way." ”
"Thank you. Gu Chen only smiled, and then waved goodbye to the tall and thin old man and the bearded man.
Everyone put the purchased seafood into the car, and it can be said that it is fully loaded.
On the way, Nie Xiaoyu still thought that he had come to purchase aquatic products this time, and said with some disappointment: "If we just come here to simply purchase aquatic products, then we can actually do it in the market, isn't the fun of fishing just leisure and passing the time? ”
"But at least we've found a seafood base with delicious meat. Gu Chen glanced back at Nie Xiaoyu and said, "Then do you want to know where these aquatic products are being transported?"
Nie Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly pouted and smiled: "Brother Gu Chen, tell me the truth, are you here to handle the case tonight?"
Seeing that Nie Xiaoyu was so witty, Gu Chen no longer concealed it, and said directly: "I was really guessed by you, it is worthy of Xiaoyu who is inspirational and wants to be admitted to the police academy, then I will test you, what will I do next?"
Seeing that Gu Chen was really handling the case, Nie Xiaoyu suddenly smiled and said, "Sure enough, I guessed it." ”
"If I were Gu Chen's brother, then I would definitely go to Hongshan Reservoir tonight to find out the situation. ”
After thinking about it, Nie Xiaoyu said again: "Then next, do you want to investigate those aquatic product buyers?"
"Yes, Xiaoyu. Officer Wang was also stunned, and couldn't help complaining: "I can't see it, I really can't see it, you can actually know this?"
"Hehe, don't look at who my dad Comrade Lao Nie is? He used to be an old policeman. Nie Xiaoyu felt that it was all trivial.
At this moment, when Gu Chen drove the car to the intersection of the mountain, he parked the vehicle at the opposite side of the intersection, then turned off the engine and pulled the handbrake.
"Xiaoyu, you and Yuan Shasha will take these aquatic products and take a taxi back to the police station later. ”
"Why?" Nie Xiaoyu was suddenly stunned, and quickly retorted: "Are you not taking me to play?"
"Not really. Gu Chen shook his head, looked down at his watch, and then said: "The main reason is that the buyer will come over around the morning, and the time is too late, I am afraid that Master Nie will be worried, so I ...... You'd better go back first, we might be late today. ”
Of course, Gu Chen knew that aquatic product wholesale was the same as vegetable wholesale, and it was generally the time to stock up at night.
Many agricultural or aquatic products purchased from other places or suburbs will get off the bus in the middle of the night and start wholesale trading.
Therefore, the farmers' market would be very busy at night, and Gu Chen knew that it was another sleepless night.
Nie Xiaoyu still wanted to fight for it, but Lu Weiwei immediately said again: "Come here and take you for a ride this time, next time we will ask you to fish, it's real fishing." ”
"You're all liars anyway. Seeing Gu Chen's decision-making, Nie Xiaoyu, who was familiar with Gu Chen's character, suddenly knew that it was hopeless for him to follow, so he reluctantly agreed: "That's okay, I'll go back with Sister Sasha first, but you also have to pay attention to safety." ”
"Yes. Gu Chen nodded slightly, and then instructed Yuan Shasha: "Xiao Yuan, then I'll trouble you." ”
"What's the trouble with this, it's not troublesome, it should be. Yuan Shasha did not complain, and after getting out of the car directly, she put forward all the aquatic products and fishing tools in the trunk.
With everyone's help, Yuan Shasha and Nie Xiaoyu quickly stopped a taxi on the old street of Hongshan Town, and then reluctantly returned to the city.
After sending the two away, everyone began to wait for a long time in the car.
At this time, the role of snacks quickly became prominent......
Especially melon seeds, which can be called a fairy snack to pass the time.
Everyone waited until about early morning.
At this moment, the streets of Hongshan Town are also starting to become a little quiet.
Although there are still some food stalls with a lot of diners and loud voices, most of the shops have begun to choose to close.
And just when Officer Wang was almost asleep, Gu Chen pushed him awake: "Senior Brother Wang, don't sleep, it seems that the target has appeared." ”
"What?" Officer Wang rubbed his eyes, and then he looked up sharply.
I found a blue pickup truck, which happened to pass by Gu Chen's vehicle, and then slowed down and drove in the direction of Hanyin Temple.
Due to the trailer of the blue pick-up truck, several huge buckets are placed, and they are firmly fastened with ropes.
Therefore, this car is going to pull goods, and everyone can guess at a glance that it must be to pull aquatic products.
Lu Weiwei yawned, and her eyes couldn't help but drift to Gu Chen: "It seems that our wait is not in vain, the buyer is here, so should we follow?"
"No, just wait here. Gu Chen didn't mean to follow.
To put it simply, there is no need to keep up.
Lu Weiwei nodded silently: "Then I understand, after they pack the aquatic products, we will follow them and see where these people are sold." ”
After thinking about it, Lu Weiwei suddenly said, "Isn't that right? If these aquatic products will eventually be sold to the Nebula Monk, then why don't they send them directly to the Hanyin Temple, but pull down the aquatic products to sell in the market?"
Gu Chen smiled and said: "If you want to pull it directly to Hanyin Temple for sale, then there is no need to come and pull it to the market in the early morning, when we went to the direction of Hongshan Reservoir just now, I don't know if you have noticed, is there a truck outside Hanyin Temple?"
"Good...... It seems that there is none. Lu Weiwei said.
Officer Wang glanced at her: "Be confident, remove the like, that's not at all." ”
Gu Chen said with a smile: "Actually, it's not that complicated, if this is really an industrial chain, then these people won't be too hasty." ”
"After all, if you want to make leeks pay, the necessary procedures are still required, and I estimate that when the Nebula monk purchases, the process will inevitably be disclosed to the leeks, so as to gain the trust of the leeks. ”
"That's right, after all, the process also has to go through a bit. Lu Weiwei fully understood, and then showed a satisfied smile.
Everyone waited at the intersection for a long time, and soon, there were fewer and fewer customers at the food stalls, and a dazzling light flashed at the intersection.
When everyone looked carefully, the truck that had gone up the mountain to haul goods slowly drove from the intersection.
Then go all the way along the old street of Hongshan Town, and turn directly into the direction of the provincial road.
Gu Chen didn't hesitate, and directly started the vehicle and followed.
Tracking is a technical job, and it can neither be too closely followed nor too loose.
While maintaining sufficient viewing distance, try to look as casual as possible.
You can overtake, or you can deliberately let the truck overtake, and you have to be relaxed.
And Gu Chen made good use of these, so on the road, he was not found tired by the truck driver.
It wasn't until the truck drove on the provincial highway for nearly 30 minutes or so that it turned from a fork in the road and entered the farmers' market in the western suburbs of Jiangnan City.
Gu Chen didn't hesitate, and directly chose to follow.
After the truck drove all the way to a fishery area on a farm in the western suburbs, a tall, thin man with a beard reversed the car into a stall.
Two people then came to unload the cargo.
Gu Chen parked the car in a parking space, and through observation, it could be found that the stall was named "Afa Aquatic Products Wholesale".
Gu Chen took out his mobile phone and filmed the whole unloading process.
After all the work was completed, the tall and thin bearded man talked and laughed with the two unloading men, and directly chose to sleep on the folding bed at the stall.
......
......
In the early morning of the next day, when the sun shone on the car, Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang had already slept in the car for one night.
When Gu Chen opened his eyes, the farmers' market in the western suburbs of Jiangnan City suddenly became lively.
Many small traders and hawkers began to buy and pick up goods at the stalls, and all kinds of shouts continued.
Gu Chen woke up the two: "Senior Brother Wang, Senior Sister Lu, look at it." ”
"Huh?" Lu Weiwei opened her eyes in a daze and looked in the direction of Gu Chen's guidance, but she was suddenly stunned.
Officer Wang's expression was the same.
Everyone found that the Nebula Monk did not know when he appeared at the stall position.
Not only that, but he seemed to be accompanied by two female believers, and everyone bargained at the stall together.
After some communication, it seemed that an agreement was reached, and the monk Xingyun asked the two porters at the stall to load the aquatic products onto the truck again.
After that, Monk Xingyun got into a red sedan and seemed to lead the way ahead.
And the blue pickup truck that appeared at the Hongshan Reservoir last night followed behind with the aquatic products shipped from the Hongshan Reservoir last night.
All kinds of operations throughout the whole process were filmed by Gu Chen.
Lu Weiwei hurriedly asked, "Chase?"
"No need. After Gu Chen finished collecting evidence, he said: "The aquatic products must be transported to Hanyin Temple." ”
"Sure enough, I feel that this Nebula Monk is not so simple. Lu Weiwei was angry when she looked at it, feeling that everything before was a routine.
Nebula Monk is a routine, aquatic wholesale is a routine, and even the release pond is a routine.
Gu Chen said indifferently: "We can go to the stall now and ask to see what the specific situation is and what the price is." ”
"Good. Lu Weiwei agreed, and had already wanted to move her muscles.
So Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang were divided into two groups.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei played a couple who inadvertently approached the aquatic products wholesale stall.
Officer Wang, on the other hand, played the role of another passerby, slowly moving forward from a different direction.
Everyone didn't go directly to the stall at first, so it was easy to overexpose their purpose.
Instead, the curve is chosen to be close.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei first selected aquatic products on the periphery of the Afa aquatic product stall.
Then approach from left to right.
The passerby played by Officer Wang is from right to left.
Everyone's purpose is only one, to produce an intersection in the Afa aquatic products wholesale stall.
And this intersection seems to be inadvertent, but it is actually a script arranged in advance by the two parties.
Gu Chen was snuggled by Lu Weiwei and complained to the boss next door to the Afa aquatic products wholesale stall: "You are too expensive, can you be cheaper?"
"It's already the cheapest young man, I'm quoting you a low wholesale price, and you won't find a second one in the market at this price. ”
"Still, I think it's expensive. Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and after seeing that Lao Wang had already touched the Ah Fa aquatic products wholesale stall, she hurriedly pulled Gu Chen and said, "Then let's go next door and have a look." ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Gu Chen also nodded slightly, and under the snuggle of Lu Weiwei, he walked directly to the Afa Aquatic Products Wholesale stall next door.
There was also a complaint from the boss just now: "Hehe, I don't buy it at this price, where did you accept the price of others?"
Gu Chen didn't think much about it, and walked directly inside with Lu Weiwei.
Seeing this, the tall and thin bearded man quickly got up and walked out and asked, "What do you want?"
"What's the price of your loach?" asked Lu Weiwei.
The tall, thin, bearded man smiled and said, "The prices are all written on the basin, you can see for yourself." ”
"But......" Gu Chen glanced up at the tall, thin bearded man, and said in some surprise: "But the price of your loach seems to be much more expensive than next door." ”
"The best is the most expensive. The tall, thin, bearded man was holding a cigarette in his mouth as he grabbed a lubricated loach in his hand with both hands and showed it to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei.
But not long after, the loach was too slippery and fell directly into the basin of water.
"See, my loach is raised in the reservoir, and the quality is quite good, and the meat quality is more delicious than that of ordinary varieties. ”
"But you're too expensive, aren't you?" At this time, it was Officer Wang's turn to play.
Officer Wang also stepped forward from the other side and said, "I've also seen other people's homes, and the difference is not very big, but why are your loaches sold so expensive? ”
"Hehe, I can't guarantee that I'm immortal, but it's definitely delicious. ”
The tall and thin bearded man saw that the two groups of guests were interested in buying, so he stepped forward and whispered: "To tell you the truth, the reason why our family's aquatic products are expensive is because of the high price. ”
"You didn't see it just now, as soon as people buy it, it's a whole truck, and that's all that is left to be sold at wholesale prices. ”
"Sold a truckload?" Officer Wang pretended to be surprised, and then couldn't help but joke: "Could it be bragging? Your family sells things that are so expensive, and someone is stupid enough to buy a truckload?"
"yes, it's bragging. Seeing that the tall, thin bearded man was not emotional, Lu Weiwei continued to go over to add fuel to the fire.
The tall, thin bearded man was a little unhappy at this time, and directly retorted: "Believe it or not, I can tell you that people buy a truckload, and it is specially used to release the animals, do you understand the release?"
"Understood, what's not to understand about this?" Gu Chen said indifferently.
The tall, thin, bearded man smiled and stepped forward to explain to the three of them: "I told you that there are clear requirements for the species to be released, and even if I raise the price here, people will buy them, why? Because these are released species, you are worth buying." ”
"Really?" Gu Chen looked disdainful and said indifferently: "But I know that many species released on a large scale will die, and the quality is generally not good. ”
"Hey, I don't understand you yet?" Seeing Gu Chen say that his aquatic products were pseudo-released species, the tall, thin bearded man suddenly stopped doing it, and directly educated Gu Chen: "I'll tell you, these aquatic products are secretly caught from other people's release ponds, so is there any fake?"
"Yes, there are a lot of fakes now, who wouldn't cheat, are you better than the fish on the Hongshan Reservoir?"
Seeing Gu Chen mention the Hongshan Reservoir, the tall, thin bearded man was stunned for a moment, and his face couldn't help revealing a trace of ugly signs.
Gu Chen saw that the fish was hooked, so he said casually: "Let me tell you, I have been buying fish from Hongshan Reservoir before, and I am very familiar with the boss of Hongshan Reservoir, and they will send a few more every time they see me, and each one is better than yours." ”
Seeing Gu Chen talking nonsense here, the tall and thin bearded man suddenly smiled slightly: "Little brother, who are you fooling? You are still buying fish in the Hongshan Reservoir, do you know what the Hongshan Reservoir is called now?"
"You know, what's that called...... That's right, it's called the Hanyin Liberation Reservoir, it seems to be right?"
Seeing that Gu Chen could accurately name the current situation of the Hongshan Reservoir, the tall, thin and bearded man immediately looked at Gu Chen with admiration.
At this time, Officer Wang deliberately ridiculed: "It turns out that the young man knows an acquaintance from the Hongshan Reservoir? My family runs a canteen, and the daily volume is very large, when will you introduce me to the acquaintance over there to see if you can get some cheaper aquatic products." ”
Seeing that the two groups of people were chatting, they instantly put themselves in the air, and the tall, thin and bearded man suddenly smiled ghostly: "Do you still know the people of Hongshan Reservoir? Then I want to ask you, what does the Hongshan Reservoir administrator look like?"
......
