Chapter 59 Apology



After Zhen Zhen treated Hu Wei's wound, Ling Ju also came back.

Ling Ju saw that although Hu Wei looked unhappy, he did not lose his temper. He seemed to be too tolerant of those who made mistakes. Just as she was about to persuade him, Hu Wei spoke first.

"Juzi, those two people are my relatives from the same village."

Ling Ju finally realized, "Relatives? Then why did they beat you?"

Hu Wei's expression was a little grim, and he pondered for half a minute. "My parents died early, and I had two meals at their house when I was a child. It was a favor, after all, so..."

"Did you introduce them to the factory job?"

Hu Wei nodded. "I know you called the police, but don't let them..."

Hu Wei didn't finish his words, but Ling Ju knew what he meant.

Just scare them, don't really let them in.

Although Ling Ju didn't understand, she still did what Hu Wei asked.

After the police arrived, they explained that it was just a misunderstanding. Liu Qing said a few words to the police and then the police left.

The man who beat Hu Wei turned out to be Hu Jun. He was short but had a ruffian look. He was indeed quite scared when he saw the police coming, but when the police didn't take him away, he had a look of "I knew it" on his face.

It can be confirmed that this is not the first time he has done this. Ling Ju does not want to pry too much into other people's privacy, but she does feel uncomfortable with Hu Wei's behavior. Hu Wei has helped her a lot, but she can't help much.

After distributing the things, the last thing to do was to settle the wages of all the workers in the factory. Originally, this was a financial matter, but because of her relationship with Song Wei, everyone liked to ask her things when Song Wei was not around. It was impossible to hide this relationship. Word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and finally she accepted it.

Giving out bonuses is a very troublesome matter. Their factory distributes according to work, and the more you work, the more you get. Although there is a basic salary as a basis, the extra production volume must be calculated for employees according to a certain ratio. Ling Ju Zhenzhen and Hu Wei, together with several people from the finance department, spent two days calculating and checking it several times before they finished.

This era was not like the later generations, where you could just send an email to the corresponding person to confirm the pay slip. Each person had to come one by one to collect their salary, sign and fingerprint, so the end of the month was the busiest time for finance.

Five days before the Spring Festival, all welfare allowances in the factory were calculated and employees began to take holidays.

Those who usually lived in the dormitory went to catch the bus together, carrying their luggage and New Year's goods, with big and small bags and laughter. After most of the people had left, Ling Ju and Zhen Zhen prepared to go back.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Ling Ju and Zhen Zhen followed Qian Yuan, Sun Xiangyu and Li Jie to check the circuit. When they were locking the door, they unexpectedly discovered a sneaky figure.

Sun Xiangyu made a gesture, and several people hiding in the dark corner of the cafeteria saw a figure entering the kitchen. They slowly approached the kitchen door, and soon the people inside came out carrying two large buckets of soybean oil. Qian Yuan kicked the man down with one kick, and when he picked him up, it turned out to be Hu Jun!

"Oh, don't hit me, it's a misunderstanding!"

Ling Ju stepped forward and shone the flashlight into Hu Jun's face. "Not bad, young man. Not only do you fight, but you even dare to steal things? You look so familiar here, it seems you've stolen a lot!"

Hu Jun was held by Qian Yuan with one hand, and his face was distorted with a pointed chin and monkey-like features, which looked extremely ugly.

"It's a misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding!"

"Very good, Zhen Zhen, just call the police." Ling Ju was not going to let him go this time.

Just as Zhen Zhen was about to go to the office to make a phone call, she heard the skinny guy yelling, "No, no! Don't call the police! Please, my mom is waiting for me to come home for the New Year!"

Zhen Zhen laughed angrily, "You know your mother is waiting for you to go home for the New Year, yet you still dare to steal things? You know your mother is waiting for you to go home for the New Year, yet you still dare to hit others? I think your mother didn't educate you well, so why don't I educate you on your mother's behalf today!" As she said that, she rolled up her sleeves.

Ling Ju looked at Zhen Zhen's deliberately arrogant face, covered her face with her hands and smiled faintly, "Tell me, how many times have you stolen?"

Hu Jun still didn't want to tell the truth, "Really, just this once."

Qian Yuan twisted the back of his neck hard, and Hu Jun hissed in pain. His small body could not withstand the crushing of the strong man.

"I told you, five times in total!"

Zhen Zhen winked at Qian Yuan, and then Sun Xiangyu tied Hu Jun to a chair in the cafeteria. Five minutes later, Qian Yuan brought over the tape recorder and camera.

As soon as Hu Jun saw the camera, he was scared and kept shaking on his chair.

Ling Ju stood in front of him and said sternly, "You'd better tell me everything. Tell me what you stole. If you're honest, I might forgive you. But if you lie to me and I find out you stole more than this, you'll be in jail for the rest of the year."

Ling Ju looked at him sinisterly, "If you don't want to say it, that's fine. Just pick any one of these guys and beat him up until he says it."

Hu Jun's eyes widened. "You, it's illegal for you to hit me!"

"Breaking the law? Didn't you think you were breaking the law when you hit Hu Wei?"

“…”

"Hurry up and stop wasting time."

Hu Jun kept his head down. "Can you really let me go if I say so?"

"...You're too slow. I don't have that much time to waste with you."

As if he had made some major resolution, he said, "The first time was when I had just arrived for a month, I took a 50-jin bag of rice. The second time, I took a piece of pork, I don't know how many kilograms it weighed. The rest of the times, I took soybean oil."

Ling Ju also admired the people in the cafeteria. They lost so many things without saying a word!

Looking towards Qian Yuan, he asked, "Have you recorded everything? Have you taken any photos?"

Qian Yuan nodded, and then a recording came out clearly from the tape recorder.

Hu Jun's face turned pale immediately...

It is indeed a persimmon. It looks hard and will break if you squeeze it.

"You know you stole so much stuff, you'll have to stay in jail for a few months, maybe even half a year or a year."

Ling Ju rubbed his hands. "I can choose not to send you to the police station, but you have to know that I have evidence of your theft. From now on, you can no longer bully others for any reason, nor can you steal or fight. Otherwise, I will send you to the police station. And don't think of any other crooked ways. Otherwise... I don't think you can bear the consequences."

"Of course, if I ask for anything, you have to help me."

Hu Jun raised his head, seemingly a little unconvinced, "Are you serious?"

"Well, put away your cleverness. You can go back now, but you must apologize to Hu Wei immediately when you get back!"

Hu Jun nodded and said, "Okay, I apologize."

After being released, Hu Jun ran out like a lame duck. Li Jie and Sun Xiangyu took the oil back to the kitchen. Ling Ju followed them in and found out why the lost items were not discovered.

There is so much rice, flour and oil in this warehouse that it would be impossible to notice if a few items were missing!

Moreover, Song Wei is very rich and rarely looks at the details when purchasing for the canteen. This matter really needs to be discussed with Song Wei. There must be an exact number for daily consumption and inventory.
