After leaving the small white building, I asked people and found the office in the large warehouse.
"Hello, I'm Jiang Cha here to report in."
"You little bastard, what can you do in my warehouse?"
Holding a teacup, the burly middle-aged man looked at her with disdain.
"If you can't move the steel plates, you can take care of the rest. Don't be afraid of hard work or fatigue, and just follow my instructions."
Everyone knows how to say nice things, but the situation over there is unclear, so it’s better to stay calm here.
"You're quite an interesting little girl. Come here and stop crying! It's cold in the winter and hot in the summer here. The monthly inventory is dirty and tiring, and we have to take turns on duty.
By the way, my last name is Lu, and I'm the deputy director here. If you have any questions, just come to me. Our department director's last name is Meng, and he's been hospitalized recently. You'll know when he comes back."
Deputy Director Lu is a good person. He told her about her shortcomings as soon as she arrived, meaning that if she is capable, she can do it, and if she is not, she will find a way to transfer her.
Jiang Cha thought that if there was a way, he would be transferred here, so he should just do it for now and deal with anything else when he gets back.
Following Deputy Director Lu into the adjacent warehouse, a sign was posted on the red brick wall: "Ten thousand years is too long, seize the day."
“Struggling with the sky, the joy is endless; struggling with the earth, the joy is endless; fighting with people, the joy is endless!”
The warehouse is full of steel plates and steel bars.
"This is a finished product warehouse. We have dozens of them in our large warehouse. These are rare and in small quantities, so you can't move them. We keep accounts, count, and fill out shipping and inbound forms here every day."
This job is simple, and you are just right for it. If you need anything, come to my office. Where is Lao Wang?"
He called Lao Wang, who was in charge of the warehouse, and pointed at her and said;
"You take care of the newbie. She can only do simple tasks. Teach her how to keep records and fill out forms. I'm going back now."
Deputy Director Lu went back in a hurry.
"Hello, I'm new here and my name is Jiang Cha."
Lao Wang glanced at her as if his eyes hurt. Is she so unwelcome here?
"Those bastards in the office are not doing their job. What kind of work can you do here? You'll be in trouble if you get hurt by your thin arms and legs."
Holding the notebook, I told her disdainfully how to write the inventory entry and exit forms, how to write the daily records, and that I would teach her the month-end inventory in a few days. She should first familiarize herself with the steel models.
A girl came among a group of grown men. They couldn't do anything and they were afraid that she would get bumped or bruised. Her delicate skin and tender flesh were hurt. Who knows which grandson would take advantage of such a pretty girl.
A bunch of big, burly men squatting together gossiping were unbearable to watch. I finally made it to the end of the day and hurried back home. I had things to do today and couldn't dawdle any longer.
Walking towards the east gate, you can see that the steel mill is crowded with people leaving work. It was so crowded that I finally squeezed onto bus 58. I walked and stopped a lot, but fortunately, there were not many people at Pingguoyuan Station, and it was much quieter when I got into the subway.
She got off the bus at Dongdan Police Station, and the old man at the door recognized her.
"Girl, you're here again? Your uncle is busy in there! If you have anything, just go in and find him."
"Okay, thank you, sir!"
After greeting with a smile, he went straight into the hall.
Old Liu and his team were in a meeting right then! Knowing Jiang Cha must have something to talk to him about, he had someone call her to the conference room. The room was filled with familiar faces from that day, so there was no need to shy away; he simply stated his purpose.
"I reported for work at the steel mill today. I was originally assigned to the factory office, but when I got there, I found out I was transferred to the warehouse.
There was no one for the warehouse this time. The person who took my job was called Wang Yan. She was originally assigned to the finance department.
I tentatively threatened her, saying I would write a big-character poster about her, but she wasn't worried at all.
I didn't dare to make a scene anymore and went back to the warehouse. If it had anything to do with what happened that night, I was afraid it would ruin your business. I rushed over right after get off work to tell you what happened."
He drank a sip of the water handed to him, explained the situation clearly, and then he had nothing to do anymore.
"This clue is very important. Girl, it seems you are no longer in danger. They didn't find you that night, so at most they thought you were easy to bully and wanted to get rid of you. They sent someone in temporarily, and they acted quite quickly."
After listening to her report, Uncle Liu felt relieved. At least the child was not exposed, and their actions would be much easier.
"You will have to work hard for a while, and I will make it up to you once the case is solved. Then you can vent your anger.
"Okay, go to the cafeteria and have some food, then go home and sleep peacefully. This is over, and you're not allowed to interfere with anything else, okay? Safety first, just behave yourself!"
I was just about to praise Uncle Liu, but he didn't believe her? Didn't she just do that little thing? Humph, I'll ask for his two meal tickets when I go to the cafeteria later.
After saying hello to everyone, I went straight to the cafeteria to eat. There was nothing interesting to hear in the bosses' meeting, so I might as well eat a few more pieces of meat if I had the time.
The young armed policewoman is also busy.
"I washed your clothes."
I took out the freshly washed clothes from my schoolbag, along with a bag of melon seeds.
"This is a thank you to Sister Xiaowu, you have to accept it."
After eating and drinking, I left the branch office and took the bus home to sleep. It was another busy day in the morning, and I greeted the workers at the factory first.
She can't do anything except fetching water, sweeping the floor and cleaning. She knows her limitations and won't try to show off.
At noon, I went to the cafeteria to eat. Vegetarian dishes were 5 cents and meat dishes were 1 cent. The staple foods included steamed bread, multi-grain pancakes, and free winter melon soup or mung bean soup.
Many people bring their own lunch boxes and heat them directly in the super-large steamer. Frontline workers usually receive a food allowance, so the food is pretty good.
The steel mill workers' lives are hot and dangerous. Their snacks include salty soda, steamed buns, and date cakes. These can only be obtained with a work ID. Jiang Cha doesn't envy them at all; this work is hard!
