Siheyuan: Cooking journey

At that time, he was severely beaten by He Yuzhu, and everything was forced out of him. He confessed all how he deceived Qin Jingru, just to ask for mercy.

The biggest secret was known to He Yuzhu, and they were afraid that he would spread it everywhere and make it known to everyone.

Although he hated He Yuzhu to the core, he didn't dare to provoke him. It was really frustrating.

It’s different going to Hong Kong. I have money, so it doesn’t matter even if He Yuzhu tells others about it.

Even if the news really spread, he could say that he cured the disease there and brought a woman back from Hong Kong to show off. In this way, the biggest handle would be useless, and he could then take revenge on He Yuzhu.

The most important thing is, although He Yuzhu is the factory director, how much does he earn a month?

What he earns working in Hong Kong in one year may be more than what he earns as a factory manager in his entire life.

When I have money, I can deal with him however I want.

This is what is meant by "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

The benefits are right in front of us.

How could Xu Damao not be tempted?

"Guangtian, if you had said so earlier, how could I not agree?"

Xu Damao smiled and patted Liu Guangtian on the shoulder.

"What about reporting or something like that? I just said it casually."

"You want to come along?"

Liu Guangtian was stunned for a moment, probably guessing that Xu Damao was also greedy for money, and he curled his lips in disdain and said, "Damo, let me be frank first;"

"Once you get there, you have to give one-third of your monthly salary to Brother Hui. Don't try to cause trouble by relying on your cleverness. You are unfamiliar with the place, and if you offend Brother Hui, nothing good will happen, and it will also implicate us."

Liu Guangtian was quite proud of himself.

This not only protects his own interests, but Brother Hui also said that for every person he brings in, he will be given an extra 200 yuan per month.

Xu Damao agreed to go, and the money was a sure thing from now on.

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble."

Xu Damao promised seriously.

But I was feeling sarcastic in my heart. Since Brother Hui wanted to get something for nothing, I would just let him succeed for the time being and give him a few months' salary.

Wait until you get familiar with the situation and then become an ungrateful person and work on your own.

It's not complicated. Just follow Brother Hui's approach and bring people from the mainland to work in Hong Kong. This business is absolutely foolproof. Only a fool would give up!

Very well thought out and well planned.

Xu Damao also began to look forward to life in Hong Kong Island, but he still had some concerns in his heart.

After all, it was an unfamiliar place, we didn't know anything, and we had to prepare a fallback plan.

If something unexpected happens, there will be no chance to turn back. More importantly, in the future, recruiting people from the mainland to work in Hong Kong will also require a reliable channel.

I thought about it.

Xu Damao pretended to be curious and asked, "Why are the steel mills and Hong Kong Island involved in shipping? Is this business reliable?"

"You don't know yet?"

Liu Guangtian looked at him in surprise and explained, "The steel mill exports steel, but there are no ships, so we cooperate with the boss in Hong Kong Island. The ships go back and forth several times a month at the port of Tianjin. We also boarded the ship there. Brother Hui said that if we want to come back after making money, it will be very simple. We can just take a ship and come back quietly."

Xu Damao really didn't know about this matter.

I have been avoiding Qin Jingru these days and haven't asked about the news. I just occasionally heard that a new instant noodle factory was built in the steel rolling mill, and that the usually inconspicuous woman Yu Li has become the deputy general manager.

As soon as he heard the news, Xu Damao knew that there must be something fishy going on between Yu Li and He Yuzhu, and he wanted to report it.

But after thinking about the incident on Hong Kong Island, Xu Damao let it go and continued to ask Liu Guangtian: "You said before that Yan Jiefang also worked on the construction site with you. Does he also plan to go to Hong Kong Island?"

After all, Yu Li is not only Yan Jiefang's sister-in-law, but also a vice president. Maybe she can be of some help.

If I could get Yan Jiefang to go to Hong Kong with me, I would have a way out if things don't go well in the future, and he could also be useful in doing some business of recruiting people in the future.

"Oh, I haven't seen Yan Jiefang these few days. I went to look for him yesterday, but I don't know if he's there."

Liu Guangtian answered casually.

Xu Damao thought that he must bring Yan Jiefang along as well. After all, it is always good to have more people taking a free ride on the boat.

Thinking of this, he suddenly noticed that Liu Guangtian next to him looked quite good, and couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder.

Liu Guangtian looked at him puzzledly.

The two men's eyes met.

Xu Damao withdrew his hand expressionlessly, feeling inexplicably restless.

In the courtyard, Yan Jiefang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, not knowing what to do.

At this time Liu Guangtian came to find him.

Yan Jiefang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and asked impatiently, "When do we set off?"

"Brother Hui said he would leave tomorrow morning."

Liu Guangtian said this lightly, looking at Yan Jiedi next to him.

"Hey, Jie Di, do you want to go to Hong Kong Island too? It's very lively there, with everything you need. It's just right for you to have fun there for a few days."

"This this……"

Yan Jiedi was excited. That was Hong Kong. She had heard that it was very prosperous since she was a child and she really wanted to go there.

But she also understood that the old man at home would definitely not agree.

why?

Because the steel mill now changes to paying wages based on performance, if you ask for leave you won’t get any money.

If I take a few days off, the old man will be so angry that he will die.

"My dad definitely won't let me."

"Jie Di, if you want to go, go ahead. I support you."

Yan Jiefang looked serious.

"You know what kind of person our dad is. He's so stingy. We work for free outside and he doesn't leave us a penny. I heard from Brother Hui a while ago that he makes several hundred yuan a month over there. If we can find a suitable job this time, we won't come back; if not, we'll come back and see what my dad has to say..."

Of course Yan Jie Di remembered that incident. Yan Jiefang insisted on taking her with him so that Yu Li would not be able to find them.

"Well, well... not very good..."

Although Yan Jiedi had been moved in her heart a long time ago, she thought, with only a few hundred yuan a month, my god, how many skirts can she buy with that!

"There's nothing wrong with that."

Liu Guangfu added fuel to the fire and reminded her: "If you are worried that Third Uncle will not agree, just call them all to go. The food and accommodation are all free, and they can also broaden their horizons. Third Uncle is so calculating, he must be happy to go. Besides, the people there are very respectful to Yu Li. The ship of the steel mill is just like their own. You can go back anytime! Oh, by the way, you can also ask them to go with you to mine the ore..."

If you calculate it this way, a family of five can easily earn a thousand yuan a month, just by lying down.

The more Liu Guangfu thought about it, the more excited he became. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that everyone in the Yan family could bring benefits to him, and each one of them was as valuable as a gold ingot.

Qin family.

Qin Jingru pulled Qin Huairu to confide in her with a sad face: "Sister, what should I do? Xu Damao wants to divorce me and has been missing for the past few days. This bastard also cheated me out of more than 20 yuan."

Qin Huairu glanced at her and asked, "You haven't done what I asked you to do yet?"

"No, not yet..."

Qin Jingru blushed and lowered her head, whispering, "Xu Damao spoke as if it were true. He said that as long as I gave him the money and returned the house, he would divorce me. I thought this matter could be settled, so I didn't go to him."

Qin Huairu was in a pretty good mood.

"I thought you went there secretly."

"Then you should..."

She hesitated for a moment, her heartbeat quickened, and whispered a few words in Qin Jingru's ear.

"oops!"

Qin Jingru was a little panicked.

"Sister, I...I'm sorry..."

"Why should you be shy? He's your man. If you have problems, who else can you turn to? He must have a solution. Otherwise, you should just continue to follow Xu Damao."

Qin Huairu glared at her.

"me……"

Qin Jingru's face turned even redder and she lowered her head in silence.

It gets dark early.

After dinner, He Yuzhu was holding Nianqiu and watching Ran Qiuye teaching Xiaodeng to read.

A soft voice came from outside the house.

"Director He, are you there?"

He Yuzhu was slightly startled.

Ran Qiuye looked at him warily and puzzledly: "Someone is looking for you? Who?"

"It's Qin Jingru who lives in the backyard."

He Yuzhu said as usual.

"What does she want from you?"

Living in the same courtyard, Ran Qiuye was not a stranger to Qin Jingru, but he was not familiar with her either.

Unlike Qin Huairu, the two neighbors often interact with each other.

"I don't know, maybe it's about work. I'll go check it out."

He Yuzhu put Nian Qiu down and walked out the door.

Qin Jingru was seen lowering her head, fiddling with the things in her hands nervously.

I finally mustered up the courage to shout, but no one in the room answered.

Just as she was hesitating whether to shout again, she looked up and saw He Yuzhu standing at the door. She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look him in the eye.

"what happened?"

He Yuzhu walked over with a frown on his face.

"me……"

Qin Jingru lowered her head even lower, and after a long while she couldn't say anything.

He Yuzhu looked around and saw that Ran Qiuye was not staring at him, so he reminded him, "If you don't tell me, I'll go back."

"Don't, don't..."

Qin Jingru raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes, then quickly lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Xu Damao is back, and I don't want to be with him anymore, but he doesn't agree. What should I do? My sister said that if you don't help me, I will tell Ran Qiuye that I am pregnant with your child. She also knows someone in the hospital who can issue a pregnancy certificate. My sister also said that no matter what, I will follow you in the future and you must be responsible for me. My sister also asked me to convey this to you, hoping that we can talk about this matter sincerely..."

He Yuzhu's eyes twitched and he became furious.

"Where is she?"

"At my house..."

He Yuzhu took a deep breath, asked her to go back first, and then went back to the house to briefly explain things to Ran Qiuye.

"I haven't seen the old lady for a few days. I went to see how she was doing."

"Oh……"

Ran Qiuye asked curiously: "What does Qin Jingru want to see you about?"

"No big deal. She just wanted to ask about the work situation in the new factory and whether the work there is easy..."

He Yuzhu explained a few words guiltily and then walked towards the backyard.

forecourt.

Yu Li was pouring tea. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but her sense of smell became much more sensitive than before.

When she poured the water, she smelled a strange smell. She couldn't help but pick up the cup and smell it carefully, frowning slightly.

The tea tasted really strange, with a faint medicinal smell.
