Chapter 409 Exploring the Rat's Hole



"Director Xu," Guan Qilin said after everyone had left, "What happened? I heard there's a door in the factory? Besides the main gate, are there any other doors?"

He hadn't looked at it carefully before. Besides, the warehouse was a mess with all sorts of things, so who would notice the back?

Xu Xiangyang nodded upon hearing this, "There is indeed such a door, but we didn't plan to leave a back door when the factory was built. I don't know who left it. But when I was recruiting workers for the factory, I already blocked it with cement, so it shouldn't be easily damaged."

Actually, cement is quite strong, and it's impossible to break it silently.

He felt that there was likely a mole in the factory, otherwise how could so many things be taken away without anyone noticing?

Could it be that there are other people like him who have the cheat ability to create spatial abilities?

impossible.

It wasn't that he was arrogant, but how could so many of these heaven-defying things exist?

Moreover, if it really existed, he couldn't possibly not notice it. Besides, why doesn't this person steal fabric from a textile factory? Isn't it a bit suspicious that he comes here to steal fabric?

Therefore, he felt that this must have been an organized and premeditated act, otherwise how could no one have noticed?

Guan Qilin frowned and said, "That's a problem. Breaking a cement door is more troublesome than simply breaking the lock. Why not try to pick the lock?"

This is the suspicious point: why didn't they use the simple lock-picking tool?

Xu Xiangyang had also thought of this. He pondered for a moment, unsure of where to begin his investigation.

In any case, this was most likely done by someone inside the factory, or someone who is very familiar with the factory's situation.

This is really giving me a huge headache!

He paused for a moment and said, "Director Guan, you keep an eye on this for now. I'll try to get the fabric first; we can't just wait like this."

If there are problems with the orders, others will not want to continue cooperating with them due to the good impression they have worked so hard to build.

After all, this matter concerns the factory's reputation, and we need to consider the future.

Guan Qilin nodded, "No problem, don't worry. You can take care of things at the factory. I'm not good at sales, but I'm good at management."

He's not good at flattering others; he basically just says what he thinks when he's around people, which has offended quite a few.

Just like him and Xu Xiangyang at the beginning, wasn't it also because of his arrogance that he ignored other people's abilities?

Therefore, to avoid causing trouble for the factory by going out, he preferred to manage these matters within the factory.

Xu Xiangyang knew that he had a bad temper, so he told him to go find Section Chief Huang first, and at least find some clues.

So many things have been blatantly lost; if they can't be found, the factory will be in big trouble.

However, he already knew about the fabric issue. Going to the mountain city would be too much of a hassle, and it would require letters of introduction and such, taking several days to get there.

So he wanted to take a few days off and then go to the other side of the space to find fabric.

This type of fabric is still being produced, but in smaller quantities.

He left the garment factory with a solemn expression, and everyone else felt intimidated by him.

Anyway, I won't easily come up and say hello, lest I offend them.

Xu Xiangyang tidied himself up so that others would think he was going out, but in reality, after returning to the factory and driving his car, he went to the space.

After changing his clothes and returning to the city, he didn't go to Qian Wenqing's place. Instead, he found a courtyard that hadn't been used before and stayed in his spatial dimension.

As for the fabric, I'll have to go to the company tonight.

Now, he needs to figure out how to get to Kong Deyu's place, and then find an opportunity to enter that basement.

After dinner, Xu Xiangyang came up with a plan: the best opportunity would be to scout the location during the day.

He must have left Xincheng so casually, and I imagine Kong Deyu will hear about it soon.

As long as he disguises himself well, there won't be any problems.

He changed into ordinary clothes, put on a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and dressed as plainly as possible.

When he arrived at Kong Deyu's black market, he first wandered around and bought a few kilograms of cornmeal.

Business here is significantly worse than elsewhere.

There weren't many people there; most were from nearby who didn't want to travel far and just bought a few things here.

He walked along, looking at things, then pretended to have a stomachache and ran to the back of the building.

After looking around and seeing that no one was there, he looked along the wall and, sure enough, there was a lot of trash...

I forced myself to find a mouse hole. There were only two around here, and the other one was in that little corner when I first came here.

However, that wasn't the basement area, so it was useless.

Xu Xiangyang scouted the location, remembered which window it was under, and then quickly left.

Although it doesn't have much of a smell, it's still unbearable to look at.

He left the black market and returned to the courtyard, where he took a shower and changed his clothes. He had never known he had such a strong obsession with cleanliness. How come he hadn't noticed it before?

When evening came, Xu Xiangyang went to the space to find the agency that had been commissioned to handle his business and explained his requirements.

After confirming everything, I left a deposit and left.

He glanced at the time and realized there were only ten minutes left. He looked at the private restaurant next door and realized that eating there was out of the question; there wasn't enough time.

It seems I really need to bring some things back to the factory next time I go back, so I can ask Master Sun to cook me a meal.

Although the food at the state-run restaurant was alright, it couldn't compare to the skills of Chef Sun from the factory.

I don't know why this person didn't go to work as a chef in a state-run restaurant, but instead came to a clothing factory.

Actually, he doesn't care much about factory affairs or personnel matters; he usually focuses more on production output and orders.

After all, the most important thing at this time is to increase profits so that the factory can develop steadily.

If the factory continues to operate at a loss, he, as the factory manager, will soon be laid off.

He put his heart and soul into this project so that his hard work wouldn't go to waste.

With a sigh, Xu Xiangyang changed his clothes and then went to Kong Deyu's place under the cover of night.

The best course of action is to go and cause trouble for him while you are not a suspect.

Otherwise, if he were in the new city and something went missing there, Kong Deyu would probably suspect him first.

It can no longer be considered a doubt, but a certainty.

Xu Xiangyang first looked at the second floor and, sure enough, the office lights were still on.

He wasn't afraid of being discovered, since he was going through a rat hole anyway.

You put a small mouse into the hole, then turn on the little light on the mouse's head. It took some effort to make this; I modified it myself.

I never imagined he would actually walk through a mouse hole one day!

I used to feel uncomfortable whenever there was a drain, but now that I've walked through a rat hole, I don't feel any burden anymore.

What burden is there to bear? Isn't this just a rat hole?

We might have to use a dog hole again in the future...

Xu Xiangyang frowned. Why was he thinking about such useless things?

He looked carefully at the road ahead and suddenly saw a pair of bright red eyes.

Xu Xiangyang: ...

Not making a sound was his last shred of dignity; really, his sudden appearance was quite startling.

But then again, it would be strange if there weren't any rats in a rat hole, right?
