Siheyuan, Kaiju replaced He Yuzhu as the chef
Chapter 56: Knock Knock
Lu Qing hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to Director Li's request.
Director Li spoke very nicely yesterday and promised to give him money to buy groceries.
Lu Qing decided to observe the situation first before making any further plans. He took off his apron and left the cafeteria.
When he arrived at the factory gate, the person from the security department glanced at him, smiled meaningfully, and let him go without asking too many questions.
This made Lu Qing realize even more clearly that Director Li had good relationships with many people in the factory.
The Security Department has considerable power in the factory. They can interfere in all major and minor matters in the factory and even control the fate of some people.
Director Li must have spent a lot of money to maintain such a good relationship with the Security Department.
Lu Qing came to the market, bought some meat and vegetables, spent all the bills in his hand, and even took out cash.
Buying with cash would cost twice as much as using tickets, but he didn't hesitate.
After buying the groceries, he passed by a bicycle repair shop. Looking at the two bicycles at the door, he had an idea.
In this day and age, bicycles are a luxury for ordinary people.
He walked into the store and asked, "Boss, how much is this bicycle?"
The boss raised his head, took a look, and asked, "Do you have an industrial ticket?"
"No." Lu Qing shook his head. In the past, life was difficult and it was impossible for him to have such a thing.
The boss said with some regret: "That's expensive, one hundred and twenty dollars."
The price was not cheap. For most people at that time, one hundred and twenty dollars was an unaffordable sum of money.
Lu Qing smiled helplessly: "It's indeed a bit expensive."
Seeing that he might not be able to afford it, the boss lowered his head and continued to repair the tire: "Come back when you get an industrial ticket. It will be much cheaper that way."
Lu Qing unexpectedly said, "No need to wait that long, I want it now."
After that, he took out 120 yuan from his bag, handed it to the boss, and pointed to one of the bicycles in the store: "I want this one."
The boss was stunned for a moment, then stood up excitedly, wiped his hands with a smile and said: "Little brother, I didn't expect you to be so generous at such a young age, it's amazing!"
Lu Qing smiled and said nothing at his boss's flattery, but in his heart he enjoyed the feeling of being rich.
Sure enough, money can make everything simple.
The boss quickly tidied the car for him, checked the tires, tightened the seats, and even assured him that if there were any problems with the car, he would come and fix the minor problem for free.
Lu Qing hung the vegetables he bought on the back of the bike and rode to the place designated by Director Li.
With a bicycle, traveling becomes much easier.
He had long wanted to have a bicycle, not only for convenience, but also because his space points had been growing slowly recently, and he guessed he needed to look for new opportunities elsewhere.
With a car, he can look for these opportunities more easily.
Besides, during this period of time, he suppressed Daye and He Yuzhu, not only causing their reputations to plummet, but also gained a lot of benefits from it. He really should enjoy it.
After riding for a while, Lu Qing arrived at Director Li's house.
This is a single-family house located in an inconspicuous alley.
He looked around and didn't see Director Li, but unexpectedly met a familiar figure - Lou Xiao'e.
Lou Xiao'e also saw him and greeted him with a smile: "Lu Qing? Why are you here?"
Lu Qing was a little surprised, but he quickly recovered and replied, "I came to see Director Li of our factory. I didn't expect to meet you here."
Then he thought, Lou Xiao'e came from a wealthy family and was originally a young lady. If it weren't for his status as a capitalist, she would have no need to marry Xu Damao.
Living in such a comfortable, independent house is a life that suits her status.
"I see." Lou Xiao'e glanced at the vegetables Lu Qing bought and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be able to handle things on your own now. It's really impressive. And your recent actions against the old man and Sha Zhu are really gratifying."
While unloading his things, Lu Qing just smiled faintly and didn't say much.
Lou Xiao'e continued, "You don't know, they always bully our Damao, especially that silly Zhu. Whenever they are not satisfied, they beat our Damao. We went to ask the uncle to seek justice, but the uncle didn't care at all."
Lu Qing wanted to laugh when he heard these words.
He knew very well that Xu Damao was not a good person and he deserved to be taught a lesson by Sha Zhu. But he did not intend to say it out loud, after all, he and Lou Xiao'e were not familiar with each other and they did not have much friendship.
If it weren't for the recent events, Lou Xiao'e might not have said so much to him.
It's better to avoid getting into trouble.
Seeing that Lu Qing didn't react much, Lou Xiao'e realized that she had said too much and smiled awkwardly: "I've said so much, you must be annoyed. I have something else to do, so I won't keep you any longer."
Lu Qing said politely: "Sister Lou, you are busy. I have something to do here. Please go slowly."
Before leaving, Lou Xiao'e looked at Lu Qing deeply.
Although they didn't have much contact after she married Xu Damao, she always felt that Lu Qing was different now.
In the past, he was just a small character with no opinions of his own, but now, he not only has his own ideas, but also calculations.
In a short period of time, he made Sha Zhu and the old man fall into trouble. It seemed that he had found out the weaknesses of everyone in the courtyard and broke them one by one.
Lou Xiao'e recalled the times when Lu Qing seemed to be hesitant to speak, and felt vaguely uneasy.
Did he know something about me? Or did he have something to say to me?
She shook her head and said with a self-deprecating smile: "What can happen to me?" Except for the fact that her belly was not working well and she had not been able to get pregnant, everything else was fine.
Xu Damao has a stable job and he has enough pocket money.
As long as I could have a baby, life would be perfect.
Thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e smiled and left happily.
Lu Qing looked at Lou Xiao'e's departing back and was about to think about something when Director Li suddenly appeared.
"You are quite creative, you even knew to borrow a bicycle and bring the things in quickly." Director Li acted like a master.
Lu Qing pointed at the meat on the ground and said calmly: "You carry the meat. I can't carry so much at once."
Director Li frowned and asked, "If you can't get it in one go, can't you get it in two batches?"
Lu Qing raised his head and gave Director Li a cold look.
Director Li was shocked by his gaze and wanted to refute, but what happened tonight was very important to him.
This kid has been very arrogant recently. If he really quits, I really don’t have time to find a replacement.
He suppressed his dissatisfaction and said, "Okay, I'll bring it up."
Lu Qing sneered in his heart, knowing that Director Li was very angry, but he ignored him and went straight into the house.
Director Li looked at Lu Qing's back and felt very unhappy.
This kid doesn't know how to appreciate your kindness and is so tactless.
It seems that I have to give him a good warning in the future, otherwise if he is really made a regular employee, he might soar to the sky.
