Chapter 156: The Old Hermaphrodite Li Baiwan

Li Baiwan handled the matter very quickly. Before the end of the month, all the personnel involved in the "stealing and selling of stone materials" had been fired and the news was announced to the entire factory.

A few days after Tian Xin returned from the county town, she received a call from Li Baiwan.

Everything in the factory has been renewed. The staff has been completely replaced from top to bottom, and there are many new faces.

The staffing of the weighing room has also been adjusted from three to four, namely, an administrator, a supervisor and two weighers.

When passing by the weighing room, Tian Xin took a look.

The two people in charge of weighing have been replaced by two aunts in the village. Tian Xin knows these two people. One is surnamed Shi and the other is surnamed Zhang. They are well-known virtuous people in the village.

The supervisor heard that Li Baiwan was seconded from outside. He had previously followed one of his employees, a middle-aged man in his thirties.

The management job was given to his brother-in-law, and a few old men were hired to take over the original job of guarding the gate.

Several outsourced drivers were also fired, and all the drivers transporting goods in and out were replaced by internal personnel, and all the vehicles were purchased with funds from the factory.

This operation has eliminated the possibility of "speculation and profiteering" in the weighing room. Every corner of the factory is equipped with surveillance cameras, leaving almost no blind spots.

Li Baiwan's office had also moved. The factory's office area was purpose-built, spanning two floors. The original director's office was on the first floor, near the left wall. Because Li Baiwan preferred quiet and needed a nap, they had moved it there specifically for him.

For some reason this time, he moved back to the room in the middle of the first floor, with Liu Shengli and Wang Jianjun's offices on either side.

Tian Xin didn't know he had changed offices. When she ran over, she found that the old office had been converted into a reception room. Li Baiwan was arranging for people to put up banners in the reception room.

The room contained a leather sofa, a mahogany coffee table, and several tall bonsai plants against the wall beneath the windowsill. On the wall hung a black-framed calligraphy piece: "Virtue carries all things."

Tian Xin looked around and praised sincerely: "Not bad, not bad, the factory director's taste is getting better and better!"

"Hey, you're right. When it comes to taste, I'm definitely better than those old guys!" Li Baiwan walked over and whispered, "It's mainly for signing the contract." After that, he laughed.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Tian Xin asked, "How did you deal with Zhang Feng's matter?"

A few days ago, she went to the village committee and met Zhang Yuan when she passed by Zhang Ni's house.

Zhang Yuan hid when she saw her. She ran over, pulled her out, and questioned her for a long time before Zhang Yuan finally said: Zhang Feng's parents came to their house and offered to give them 20,000 yuan to let Zhang Ni give birth to the child and raise it for them. As for marriage, it was probably impossible. Zhang Feng hated Zhang Ni so much that even if they forced the marriage, it probably wouldn't end well.

Zhang Ni's parents were completely disappointed with their daughter and let her make her own decision. However, Zhang Ni was furious and went to the hospital for an abortion the next day, threatening to never have anything to do with Zhang Feng again.

But somehow, word of this story got out, and the village radio station exaggerated it, making it known to everyone. The villagers started pointing and talking about the two sisters whenever they saw them. The family, fed up with this, decided to move to the county town.

The day they met Tian Xin, they had already packed their luggage and went to the county town the next day.

The banner had been hung. Li Baiwan took a look and asked everyone to leave, leaving only Tian Xin and him sitting on the sofa.

"The total amount of the illegally sold goods was over 200,000 yuan. Five drivers were responsible for the transportation, and Zhang Feng was responsible for contacting the cement factory. He took 50% of each truck's sales, and the rest went to the drivers. In less than six months, he made over 100,000 yuan himself. That's where he got the truck."

Li Baiwan sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, lit a cigarette, and puffed away while squinting his eyes and cursing Zhang Feng: "You bastard, when you first came here, you were just a truck driver. I saw that the young man was smart, so I gave him an easy job. Who knew that after all this time, he would raise a wolf cub."

Tian Xin took the ashtray from under the coffee table and handed it over, smiling and reminding him, "You'd better not smoke here. It would be a shame if a hole was burned in this new sofa."

"Hey, you're right to remind me." Li Baiwan put out his cigarette: "My wife doesn't allow me to smoke at home, so I came here to satisfy my craving. It seems I can't smoke anymore!"

"I think Auntie is right!"

Tian Xin teased a bit and then returned to the main topic: "So how did it end up being handled?"

"How to deal with it?"

Li Baiwan sneered: "Whatever you eat, you have to spit it out!"

“Did those drivers pay back everything?”

"That bastard Zhang Feng, I heard he squandered all his money and didn't have much left. He initially refused to pay me back, so I filed a petition with the court. As soon as he received the court summons, he was so scared that he brought the money over the next day. I heard his parents sold the store but still couldn't afford it, so they even sold his car to get the money together."

Li Baiwan didn't have a cigarette, so he just drank his tea. He took a few sips and continued, "Those drivers still owed 20,000 or 30,000 yuan and wanted to use their cars to cover the debt. I didn't agree, so I gave them until the end of the month at most. When it comes to people like this, you absolutely cannot tolerate them."

Li Baiwan finished speaking angrily, then subconsciously touched his trouser pocket and took out the cigarette. Tian Xin frowned at him, and he reacted and put the cigarette back in his pocket awkwardly.

Tian Xin lowered her head and sighed: Alas... Zhang Feng got away with it after all!

After hesitating for a few seconds, she couldn't help but ask again: "What about Zhang Ni and Li Meng...?"

"After all, these two are just kids, they don't understand things. They're fired and the matter is over. Their wages haven't been deducted. This is all because they're usually quite active. It's a last bit of human consideration!"

Li Baiwan sighed: "Nowadays, this girl is too worried. She was easily deceived by a man's sweet words!"

After saying this, he seemed to realize that what he said was wrong and secretly glanced at Tian Xin.

Tian Xin was also looking at him.

When their eyes met, they couldn't help but burst out laughing!

Li Baiwan pointed at her with his finger and said, "You are a woman with good judgment. You didn't get fooled by Zhang Feng!"

"Yes, you wanted to be a matchmaker at the beginning, and you almost pushed me into the fire pit!" Tian Xin teased with a smile.

Who is Li Baiwan? He was an old hermaphrodite. He laughed and said, "Uncle is just concerned about your important life event! I was careless and neglected it!"

"I think you should stop messing around with matchmaking in the future. Being a matchmaker can easily lead to serious consequences!"

"Yeah, that's right! It's better to take care of yourself than to worry about other people's problems."

Li Baiwan laughed and pointed at Tian Xin and teased her.

Tian Xin saw the banner that read: Welcome Director Liu to the Xiaowan Village Stone Factory to guide our work! She interrupted Li Baiwan's increasingly irritating banter and asked him:

"Is this Director Liu the same Director Liu from the Ruifeng Cement Factory that I met before?"
