Chapter 452 Fengshi Food Processing Factory
After leaving the train station, the two of them quickly ate a bowl of noodles outside and returned to the guesthouse. Fortunately, they did not stay in the same room. Around six o'clock, Gu Yuehuai quietly left the guesthouse and went to Liang Street.
At dusk and sunset, the crowds of people on Liang Street went back to their homes, and the road suddenly became wide.
As soon as Gu Yuehuai stepped into Liang Street, he saw Xing Jian leaning against the wall at the intersection.
He had his hands in his pockets and a cigarette with sparks coming out of it between his lips. He looked very successful in trying to look cool. In front of him stood a girl with long hair draped over her shoulders. They were talking and smiling, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Gu Yuehuai stood aside and did not step forward. She was not so tactless as to disturb other people's good things.
However, she was discovered by Xing Jian not long after she stood there.
His eyes lit up, and he instantly left the long-haired girl behind and strode towards her, his tone filled with familiar complaints: "Sister Gu, why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"
Gu Yuehuai's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "I said six o'clock, what time is it now?"
Hearing this, Xing Jian smiled happily and did not refute much.
At this time, the long-haired girl came over and stood next to Xing Jian. She looked at Gu Yuehuai curiously and spoke in a very kind tone, without any targeting as imagined: "This is Sister Gu, right? She is so beautiful!"
Gu Yuehuai looked at Xing Jian, waiting for him to introduce him. If he was just a useless person, Xing Jian would most likely not bring him to meet her.
Xing Jian smiled and pointed in a direction and said, "Sister Gu, I have settled all the brothers on this street and rented a house. It's a bit inappropriate for us to talk here. Let's go to another place. I have a lot to tell you."
Gu Yuehuai nodded, followed Xing Jian and the long-haired girl to the house he rented.
When she got there, she realized that it was called a house, but in fact it was a warehouse. On one side of the warehouse against the wall was a row of wooden beds with messy quilts curled up on them, looking a bit dirty. She had not expected such conditions.
Two hundred yuan was enough for him to properly settle his people.
Perhaps he could see what Gu Yuehuai was thinking, Xing Jian scratched his ear and said, "Sister Gu, please sit down first. I'll tell you everything and you'll know what's going on. This time, it's all thanks to Comrade Zhao Yuan."
As he spoke, Xing Jian lit the kerosene lamp, and the huge warehouse suddenly became bright.
Gu Yuehuai walked to the table and sat down. Zhao Yuan had already poured her a glass of water. It was obvious that she was very familiar with the place.
Next, Xing Jian told Gu Yuehuai everything that had happened during this period. After listening, she couldn't help but pursed her lips. No wonder Xing Jian dared to publish articles and advertise in newspapers so unscrupulously. It turned out that he had found a strong background.
Gu Yuehuai glanced at Zhao Yuan in surprise, but the latter did not look at her. She just looked at Xing Jian shyly in the dim light. The daughter of the "Director of Fengshi Food Processing Factory" actually fell in love with such a dissolute man like Xing Jian.
After she left Feng City, Xing Jian started to set up a black market street.
He first went to find Cai Lan and made his attitude clear, saying that he was no longer prepared to cooperate with him in doing those evil things. This was considered a direct break with him. Cai Lan accepted it with a smile on the surface, but secretly found someone to teach Xing Jian a lesson.
To him, Xing Jian is just a pet. If the pet is disobedient and wants to bite people, he will naturally use a stick to discipline it.
Fortunately, Xing Jian had found this warehouse in advance with the money and moved all his people there, leaving Cai Lan's men empty-handed. But as a result, the original hideout was completely unusable, so he hadn't been back during this period.
Although Cai Lan failed, he still had no intention of letting Xing Jian go.
Xing Jian thought about it and decided to listen to her. He took 20% of the profits from the black market and found another rival, Cai Lan's rival. Although he said it was Cai Lan's rival, in fact it was the rival of his mother-in-law, Cai Fengping, the director of Liulichang.
It is not difficult to guess who this person is. He is Zhao Yuan’s father, Zhao Yulong, the director of Fengshi Food Processing Factory.
He had a hundred dollars left from renting the house, so he gritted his teeth, used his connections to buy some cigarettes and alcohol, and went straight to the door.
However, he did not even see Zhao Yulong the first day, and left in disgrace with his things. In the following days, he waited near the food factory day and night. Unfortunately, Zhao Yulong traveled by car, so he could not stop him at all.
Although there was no progress on his side, the black market street had already started in full swing.
After all, selling grain on the black market was not something that could be tolerated. Even if there was no one in charge in Fengshi, he would not dare to expand his business. However, most people in Fengshi were carefree and did not care about Xing Jian's embarrassment. They came to buy grain without any scruples.
The matter gradually became a big deal. On the one hand, Xing Jian was worried about Zhao Yulong's affairs, and on the other hand, he had to worry about the black market street being taken over. It was only then that he realized that it was not an easy task to develop the grain street.
Fortunately, God did not make things too difficult for him, and things took a turn for the better one day.
That day, he was still squatting near the food factory in the middle of the night. He was drowsy when he suddenly heard a scream and a cry for help. He looked up and saw two men tying up a young woman and wandering around the entrance of the food factory.
It was obvious at first glance that the two men had blood on their hands. They stood at the gate of the food factory without any fear and shamelessly asked the gatekeepers in the factory to open the door immediately, otherwise they would kill Zhao Yulong's precious daughter!
Xing Jian is not stupid. When he saw this scene, he knew that his chance had come.
There is nothing much to say about what happened afterwards. Xing Jian saved Zhao Yuan at the risk of being seriously injured and successfully got a ticket to meet Zhao Yulong. When the two sides talked about the black market grain street that had recently become famous, they became more and more interested in each other.
The fact that Zhao Yulong could become the director of a food factory is enough to show that he is not a simple person and he has someone protecting him.
Moreover, he was a kind-hearted person, knowing that there was a shortage of food and the situation was a bit chaotic. Otherwise, why was the frequency of crime in Feng City getting higher and higher? It was all caused by the shortage of food and hunger.
When Zhao Yulong heard that Xing Jian had the ability to obtain food and sell it at a reasonable price on the black market, he strongly supported him.
Feng City is different from other places. If the crime rate can be reduced due to the existence of Grain Street, it will be considered to have solved some troubles for the higher-ups. I don't know how he did it, but Grain Street is run like a regular grain station and is doing well.
Moreover, Zhao Yulong did not take the 20% profit from Grain Street. He just took the biscuits and snacks produced by his factory to Grain Street to sell. Not to mention, the efficiency of the food factory has greatly improved during this period.
Cai Lan knew about Xing Jian's grain street and came to cause trouble, but Zhao Yulong stepped in later and the matter was dropped. Zhao Yulong didn't say much, but just asked Xing Jian to run the grain street well and not to let him down.
With confidence, Xing Jian naturally let go and started marketing and sales.
