After learning the accurate information, Ye Li notified the family members and asked them to pick up the person.
Soon the workers were taken home. Today, Ye Li gave several arrested workers a day off, allowing them to have a good rest at home for a day before going to work again.
After getting the agreement, Lao Liu was now busy raising money. He only had 10,000 yuan in his hand, which was his savings over the years.
He planned to ask the captain for help with the remaining 30,000 yuan.
But who knew that after he made the call, the captain actually said clearly that the matter had nothing to do with him and had no intention of paying for Lao Liu.
"Captain, you can't be so heartless! It was you who said you wanted to take action at the scene, but why did you try to clear yourself of all charges after something went wrong? Do you know how much 40,000 yuan is? I'm not worth that much even if you sell me!" Old Liu was furious. He didn't expect the captain to be so heartless.
"Old Liu, I have a solution for you. You can ask other colleagues to borrow money. If you really can't get enough, I'll tell you someone you can borrow money from. But the interest rate is a little higher."
"Captain! It's meaningless if you say that! I think you are also involved in this matter. We are all led by you. Such a big thing has happened, and none of us wants to expose it to others. Don't you want to be promoted next year? If this matter is reported, you probably won't have a chance of promotion, right?" Seeing that the captain had no intention of helping him, Lao Liu could only resort to this last resort and threaten the other party.
"Oh, you still want to blackmail me? Let me tell you, what I fear least is threats! To be honest, I have someone above me. If you dare to expose this to others, you will be the only one who will be fired!" The captain is no pushover. He must have some means and connections to get to this position.
...
...
"Captain, I was wrong! I was really wrong! Please help me. Or you can lend me some money. Ten thousand! Just ten thousand yuan! I'll find a way to get the rest of the money!" Lao Liu was completely panicked. He felt that threatening was not a good idea and it might get him into trouble.
"You're a smart guy. Let me lend you 10,000 yuan, and the interest will be calculated based on the bank's interest rate. How do you think? Isn't that a sign of loyalty?"
“So loyal!”
"Okay, it's settled then. Come over to my house later to get the money." The captain said and hung up the phone mercilessly.
"Bah! What a bullshit loyalty, it's all fake! Why didn't I see your true face before! I really regret it!" Old Liu cursed to himself.
He suddenly thought of something and ran to the study to look for something. Finally he took out a business card and dialed the number on it.
"Hello, is this the Morning Newspaper? I have a piece of news to submit! It's a breaking news story about the fire chief having affairs with a woman!"
After Lao Liu solved the captain's problem, he started borrowing money again.
Finally, Lao Liu managed to collect 40,000 yuan, but he was still in debt. He didn't know when he could pay it off.
However, the instigator of this incident, Section Chief Ma, was leisurely drinking hot tea and reading the newspaper in the unit.
He flipped through the latest issue of the Morning News, trying to find the big news he provided.
But he searched for a long time but couldn't find any news about the conflict and fight between the weaving factory and the fire department.
"Why isn't it there? Will it be in tomorrow's newspaper?" Section Chief Ma was a little disappointed.
"No. I have to ask." Section Chief Ma looked like he was enjoying the fun.
He called the editor-in-chief of the Morning Newspaper and learned that the news he provided would only be seen in the next issue.
"Is that so? Then I'll wait and read tomorrow's newspaper!"
Section Chief Ma has already made plans. As soon as the newspaper comes out tomorrow, he will take the newspaper to Secretary Chen. He must give Ye Li a good slap in the face in front of Secretary Chen.
So the next day, as soon as the newspaper deliveryman delivered the newspaper to Section Chief Ma, he couldn't wait to open it and read it.
"Why are you so enthusiastic? You haven't even finished your breakfast yet and you're already reading the newspaper! Eat quickly, and after breakfast, accompany me back to my parents' home. It's a good time to take a day off today." Section Chief Ma's wife urged.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Let me read the newspaper first," Chief Ma spread the newspaper on the table, but after searching for a long time, he could not find the word "weaving factory". However, he was attracted by a report on the back of the newspaper.
"Oh my God! What is going on!" Section Chief Ma found an article exposing the fire captain's extramarital affairs.
You have to know that in the 1980s, if you had promiscuous relationships, you would be caught and sent to jail. If it was during a crackdown, you might even be shot.
Section Chief Ma's face instantly fell. Who did this?
Suddenly, Section Chief Ma thought of Ye Li. Could it be that she did it? Thinking of this, Section Chief Ma felt a chill down his spine.
"Oh my God, what's going on! Why is your cousin's name included?" When Section Chief Ma's wife saw the report, she was completely shocked.
"It's over! It's completely over!" Section Chief Ma held his head, not knowing what to do.
"No, I have to call and ask." Section Chief Ma picked up the phone and called the fire chief, but no one answered for a long time.
At this time, Section Chief Ma was even more convinced that something had happened to the other party and he might have been arrested.
"Wife, pack your things quickly. Let's go out and hide for two days." Section Chief Ma was afraid that Ye Li would target him again, so he thought about going out and hiding.
"Why are you hiding? The monk can run away, but the temple cannot. If that Director Ye you said was targeting you, shouldn't he have exposed your secrets?" Chief Ma's wife was brave and she felt that there was no point in running away.
"That's right! If she really caught some evidence against me, she should have exposed me. Why would she target my cousin?" Section Chief Ma finally came to his senses. He thought that Ye Li must have not caught any evidence against him, so he turned around and dealt with the fire captain.
"So why are you running? We can stop the enemy with our own weapons. I think you're fine."
"That's good, that's good." Section Chief Ma patted his chest and said thankfully. "It seems that we really can't underestimate Director Ye in the future. We should try not to cause trouble for her in the future."
Section Chief Ma was really scared, he didn't want to be arrested and put in jail. After all, in this position, he had good food and drink, so he couldn't take that risk.
"Well, the women who can manage factories are all very smart. You'd better not go against them."
"Okay, let's just let this matter go. Alas, I have implicated my cousin." Section Chief Ma still felt a little guilty.
"What does this have to do with you? It's all because of his own bad behavior! He doesn't care about his wife at home, but instead goes out to mess around with other girls. Now he's in trouble! He deserves it!" Section Chief Ma's wife cursed with gritted teeth. She had known for a long time that her husband also had the same idea.
"He deserves it! Don't worry, my wife, I will never do anything to let you down." Section Chief Ma swore immediately after seeing this.
