Soon, a week had passed, and Xie Yan resumed his search for information.
Because of the previous experience, the thank-you banquet went smoothly into the family compound this time. Although they made money, they didn't get any useful information from the family compound.
Xie Yan was not discouraged. After all, the information he wanted to know, while not a secret, was not something that could be obtained casually!
If he were to find out the information so casually, Xie Yan might even doubt its authenticity.
Few of the family members in the compound are stupid; they all know what to say and what not to say!
She's the type who speaks without thinking, so no one can say anything useful to her.
Fortunately, good news came from the black market.
Wang Shun's position as workshop director was indeed obtained through irregular channels; he performed very poorly in the "work-for-a-cadre" exam.
But he had a good father-in-law who used his connections to take the place of the first-place winner!
The person who competed with him for first place actually thought he hadn't passed the exam and had returned to the workshop as an ordinary worker.
Wang Shun was indeed not a good person; after taking office, he accepted a lot of bribes.
But this person is also a bit strange.
After taking up his post, he never promoted any of his relatives or did anything to help his relatives and neighbors, which earned him a good reputation at the glass factory.
In reality, he only cares about money, not people, and he has done a lot of things for others after taking money!
Those who try to get things done through personal connections won't get away with it.
Wang Dayong is quite capable; he not only uncovered these matters but also collected all the evidence, making him a reliable source.
But this made Xie Yan even more vigilant!
The evidence was so complete, which showed how capable this person was. This made him even more determined to avoid contact with Wang Dayong in the future!
He has absolutely no ability to protect himself. If someone wants to do something to him, he'll be at their mercy!
After handing the gold bars to Xiao Wu and thanking him, Xie Yan left without looking back.
As before, Xie Yan cautiously circled around several times before removing her costume and going to the department store. There was nothing she wanted to buy, mainly because she didn't have any tickets left.
I just wanted to go and see, just in case there was anything that didn't require a ticket.
Or if something good comes on the shelves, I might be able to snag some.
As luck would have it, they stumbled upon a cotton sale. Xie Yan was very excited, and seeing the crowded people, he couldn't help but want to grab some for his family.
Unfortunately, he didn't have any cotton coupons.
Xie Yan took a few steps and then abruptly stopped. An old woman next to him, annoyed by his obstruction, shoved him aside. Just as Xie Yan was about to argue with the old woman, he turned around and saw the old woman charging into the crowd alone. He silently shut his mouth.
He couldn't even come close to the old lady's fighting prowess.
Looking at the frantically surging crowd in front of him, Xie Yan sighed and turned to leave.
I'm not watching anymore, I'm not watching anymore, he doesn't have any cotton coupons!
Even if you're envious, you can only watch helplessly!
Xie Yan walked along, trying to comfort himself: it wasn't that he couldn't afford it, it was that he didn't need it!
Yes, that's right, it's not needed!
He had a cotton-padded coat, Yu Yuehui also had a cotton-padded coat, and with the military overcoat that Gu Bin got for him, he could get through the winter warmly.
Why buy more cotton?
What a waste of money!
After comforting himself, Xie Yan turned around and rode away on his bike!
I'm not going to watch anymore. I'd rather go home and read a book!
Xie Yan had no idea that he would be proven wrong so soon!
···
Xie Yan looked at Cherry, whose eyes were red, and knew she had something to discuss with Yu Yuehui. He put down the book in his hand and silently walked out.
Make the room available for those who need it!
Heihei was sleeping in its little nest when Xie Yan passed by. It woke up, jumped up, and followed Xie Yan out.
He looked at the kittens dangling beside his legs.
Xie Yan squatted down and stroked its head. "Heihei, since you've come along, let's go. I'll take you to the educated youth settlement!"
Looking at the road he had walked countless times, Xie Yan sighed.
You really shouldn't be a homebody!
You should go out occasionally, make more friends, and not be like him, who had nowhere else to go except the educated youth settlement!
Xie Yan walked heavily toward the educated youth settlement!
Halfway there, they encountered Wu Dali, who looked distressed.
This was the first time Xie Yan had seen him like this; he looked bitter and resentful. Although his clothes were still neatly arranged, they didn't match his messy hair at all.
This guy always combs his hair meticulously when he goes out, especially when he came to Xie Yan's house last time, his hair looked like it had been licked by a cow's tongue.
How long has it been since I last saw you, and you've changed so much?
When Wu Dali saw Xie Yan, his eyes lit up, as if he had seen a lifeline!
Its eyes glowed green as it charged forward.
This startled Xie Yan.
I unconsciously took a step back. What was I going to do?
Does it mean you want a book?
That can't be right! A single book shouldn't have that much magic, right?
I remembered the books that are still sitting in my online space!
this······
Should he give it or not?
Gu Bin, that dawdling brat, still hasn't found a suitable place to read!
Just as Xie Yan was about to take out the book, Wu Dali walked up to him, grabbed Xie Yan's hand, and pulled him towards Xie Yan's house.
Xie Yan: "..."
