After a pause, Zhao Defu continued.

“He told me that his father had an accident and now he was all alone at home, feeling dazed and confused, but someone was taking care of him.”

Hearing Zhao Defu say this, Jiang Sheng already guessed what was going on.

Before Zhao Defu could speak, he frowned.

"So he wrote to you because he wanted to see if he could find a job, is that what he meant?"

Jiang Sheng remembered that Zhao Defu at that time had a fairly good relationship with this person.

Actually, Sun Daqiang wasn't like this from the beginning. When he was in the second or third grade of elementary school, he was an excellent student and a very well-behaved person.

Later, his family suffered a series of misfortunes. His grandparents passed away, his mother ran away, and his father became a gambling addict. He was basically an orphan with no one to care for him.

The child, who had no one to care for him, couldn't even afford his tuition. It was only because the school teachers took pity on him that they donated money to pay for his tuition every year.

Even so, the security situation in Xinghua Town was not very good back then, and Sun Daqiang eventually went astray by following a group of hooligans.

From then on, he became a gambler and drinker.

Zhao Defu felt a mixture of pity and sympathy.

Upon hearing Jiang Sheng's question, he quickly nodded.

"That's right. His father was also in a car accident a while ago. He didn't have any money, and he didn't get timely treatment, so he died."

"Now he's all alone at home. He just wants to come here to find a job, to work honestly and earn money, and to never drink or gamble again."

Hearing Zhao Defu's words and seeing the somewhat embarrassed and ashamed look on Zhao Defu's face, Jiang Sheng fell into deep thought.

To be honest, it's always best to help someone if you can.

Sheng is the kind of person who doesn't show mercy. If Sun Daqiang really turns over a new leaf, he's willing to pull him out of the abyss.

What's scary is that the other party's purpose in writing this letter may not be pure.

If Sun Daqiang wrote this letter merely to gain sympathy, and then soon reverts to his old ways after arriving in Yanjing, it would pose a significant threat to their factory.

As Jiang Sheng was deep in thought, Zhao Defu, seeing his serious expression, assumed he was hesitant and reluctant, so he quickly spoke up, his smile somewhat awkward.

“…Brother Sheng…If you don’t agree, I’ll write him a letter later and tell him not to come.”

But when he said this, he was clearly not sincere.

After all, Sun Daqiang was his childhood friend, and they had a pretty good relationship back then.

Even though he later became a heavy drinker and gambler, he would still greet me with a smile every time he saw me, as enthusiastic as ever, as if he had never changed.

That's why Zhao Defu felt reluctant and thought that no matter whether Jiang Sheng agreed or not, he had to try his best so as not to feel regret or guilt.

"It's okay, I understand your concerns. Actually, I have some concerns too. After all, none of us know if he has really changed for the better..."

“You should reply now,” Jiang Sheng suddenly said, just when Zhao Defu thought it was impossible. “Let him write a guarantee that he will never gamble or drink again, and I will give him a chance.”

"ah?"

Zhao Defu was stunned for a moment, and after a long while, as if he understood what Jiang Sheng said, a joyful expression appeared on his face.

"That's wonderful, thank you so much, Sheng-ge!"

Zhao Defu was overjoyed: "To be honest, I did have some concerns, but I thought that since we had a good relationship at the time, it would be a good thing to put in a good word and help someone out."

"I'll go write a letter right now!"

Zhao Defu quickly prepared to write a letter

“Don’t rush to write,” Jiang Sheng looked at the guy and couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile. “Just write what I say. I’ll tell you what to write.”

"good"

Zhao Defu nodded quickly.

Then, following Jiang Sheng's instructions, he began to write.

As he finished writing the last character, Zhao Defu's face was filled with gratitude.

"Brother Sheng, thank you so much! Not only are you willing to send people over, but you're also going to send him travel expenses!"

After all, providing Sun Daqiang with a job to make a living was already more than enough, especially considering that the other party had a criminal record.

That's not all; the letter clearly states that Jiang Sheng is sending the other party travel expenses.

"Alright, look at you like that, as if I've never done anything good."

"hey-hey……"

Zhao Defu couldn't help but scratch his head: "That's not what I meant, Brother Sheng is the kindest person in the world!"

In fact, Jiang Sheng understood Zhao Defu's thoughts. After all, they were playmates who had played together before. It wouldn't be right not to help, but if he did help, he was afraid he would refuse. He was caught in the middle and didn't know what to do.

Although Zhao Defu is a deputy factory director, the factory doesn't belong to him alone. The fact that this kid took the initiative to discuss this matter with him means he genuinely wants to hear his opinion.

Rather than that, it would be better to just bring Sun Daqiang to Yanjing City and keep an eye on him.

If it's truly a genuine act of repentance, then it's a way of helping someone, preventing Sun Daqiang from sinking deeper into trouble, and it's a way of accumulating good karma for oneself.

But if the other party really relapses into his old ways, he won't think that it's easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. Instead, he'll simply send the other party in and let him reform himself properly inside.
