"Director Ding, I'm sorry to bother you with this matter. I'll have to take care of you in the future!"
"You're welcome, Boss Liu. But you can also recruit some employees from the village, so there won't be so much trouble in the future."
Lao Ding said to Boss Liu who was sitting across the desk from him.
Yuncheng's specialty is its underground black gold—coal. Most of the people in this small city work in coal-related jobs.
The matter this time was also very simple. Boss Liu Yuying's family had some connections, so she set up a coal washing plant in Lao Ding's jurisdiction. However, before it had been open for two days, villagers in the village where the coal washing plant was located often went there to steal coal in the middle of the night.
At first, Boss Liu, who had a large fortune, didn't care. As a result, more and more coal was thrown away. In desperation, Boss Liu called the police.
After Lao Ding went to the scene with the police, he just persuaded the villagers to return the coal. To be honest, it is not easy for farmers nowadays, and Lao Ding did not want to make a big deal out of this matter. First of all, there were too many villagers who stole coal, and they all used it for home use, not for trade.
Second, how many people should be arrested? If they really arrested a few, the villagers would have dared to surround the police station. Therefore, Lao Ding mainly used education and mediation. Boss Liu also knew that he would have to make a living here, so he didn't pursue the matter further, which led to the scene at the beginning.
"Director Ding, you're right. I'll go back and find a few villagers from my village! And if there are people in their village who are really in trouble, it wouldn't be a bad idea for them to come and ask me for help!"
"Boss Liu is so generous!"
Old Ding only paid lip service to the compliment. After all, they had just met, so who knew what kind of person he was? Besides, anyone who could run a coal washing plant was usually not an ordinary person. Old Ding was reluctant to become close friends with these people.
"Hey, Director Ding, you're too kind!"
"Director Ding, it's already noon, let's go out for lunch together!"
Liu Yuying saw that it was getting late, so she invited Lao Ding to have a meal together and to strengthen their relationship. She never knew when she would need Lao Ding's help.
"No, I'll just have a bite in the cafeteria."
Lao Ding quickly refused.
As expected of the boss, he finally managed to pull Lao Ding out of the office after much persuasion.
"Lao Cao, go greet the other police officers, don't be negligent!"
Liu Yuying was also very good at socializing. After leaving the office, she directly asked her childhood friend Lao Cao to greet the other police officers. In fact, there were only four or five police officers in a police station. Liu Yuying would definitely not miss such a good opportunity.
"Director Ding, come take my car. Where do you want to eat? I'm not familiar with the area. Could you recommend a good restaurant? I'll be stationed here for a long time."
"Oh, Crown, what a nice car!"
Lao Ding looked at the Crown in front of the police station and praised it. After hanging out with Comrade Lao Du for a long time, he also knew quite a few car brands.
"Haha, just for show. Please sit down!"
"Director Ding, please listen to my car stereo! I don't have many hobbies, I just like listening to music! What do you think?"
After starting the car, Liu Yuying showed off his car stereo, but he didn't lie, he really liked it.
"Yes!"
Lao Ding praised him.
Liu Yuying just smiled when she heard Lao Ding continue speaking.
"But it's still not as good as my friend's 212!"
"What? Beijing 212? Director Ding, you really know how to joke."
At first Liu Yuying thought she had misheard.
"Don't believe it? I'll take you to try it out."
Lao Ding would not normally do this, but he also wanted to attract business for Comrade Lao Du. After all, such a big boss should be very generous.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Liu Yuying still found it a little unconvincing. How many 212s could he buy with his car? Besides, he had ridden a 212 before, so he didn't believe what Lao Ding said at all.
"Come on, I'll show you the way. You'll understand once you listen!"
…
"Dad, how often do you go to the city? Take me with you next time. I'll go to the city to buy some things."
As soon as Lao Du and Xiao Li entered the house, Du Chen went up to him and asked his father, "I was so busy roller skating yesterday afternoon that I forgot to tell Lao Du I wanted to buy a videotape."
"Just for a couple of days. I'm running low on roller skates, so I'm going to buy some more. What are you looking for?"
"Buy some videotapes. And look around to see if there's anything else to do."
"Okay, I'll call you next time."
Comrade Lao Du agreed to Du Chen's request.
"Lao Du, come out and get your car keys!"
Comrade Lao Du was about to go into the house with Du Chen to have lunch when he heard Lao Ding calling him outside.
"What's up, Old Ding? Here are the keys, drive away. I have something to do at the repair shop this afternoon and can't leave."
Comrade Lao Du threw the car keys to Lao Ding as soon as he walked out of the shop. He thought Lao Ding wanted to use his car, but there were several cars in the repair shop and he really couldn't leave.
"No, I brought this Mr. Liu here to listen to your car's audio system."
Old Ding pointed at Liu Yuying next to him and explained to Old Du.
After saying that, Lao Ding started 212.
"Come on, Boss Liu, come and try it!"
Liu Yuying walked to the front of the car with a half-believing and half-doubting attitude. Before he even got in, he was shocked by the interior of the car. This interior was almost more luxurious than his Crown.
"Pick up a glass of wine in the morning and evening
Lonely people after the storm
Do you have an intoxicating smile?
Wild geese fly by with their heads full of chrysanthemums..."
Just as the thought flashed through Liu Yuying's mind, she heard a melodious song. The song was clear and distinct...
Comrade Lao Du has been enjoying listening to the song "Chinese Folk Song" recently, so as soon as he turned on the speakers, this song came out.
"What's going on?"
Liu Yuying was confused. This car was completely different from the 212 she had ridden in before! The interior was different, and the sound system was even better than her own car. But looking at the body, it was definitely a 212!
"Director Ding, can you tell me what's going on? I'm completely confused."
Liu Yuying touched the seat under his buttocks, still unable to believe what he saw and heard. All he could say was that Comrade Lao Du had put a lot of effort into his first car.
"Here, this is my friend Lao Du, Du Jianye. If you have any questions about cars, just ask him. He's an expert!"
Comrade Lao Du quickly waved his hands to deny it when he heard Lao Ding bragging about him. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the traditional reaction of the Chinese people is definitely to be humble.
"Brother Du, can you tell me how you built your car? I don't have any other hobbies except listening to music! When I heard about your car, I was itching to buy one!"
When Liu Yuying heard Lao Ding's introduction, she hurriedly asked Comrade Lao Du.
"Nothing special, I just do this for a living, and I also like music, so I just modified the sound system and interior of my car for my own comfort..."
"Brother Du, you haven't eaten yet, right? Let's eat something together? And by the way, can you show me if my car can be modified?"
