Zhu Yong's eyes widened. "Su Qingyun? Are you Su Qingyun from Luoshui Village?"
"right."
"Uncle, are you old and have a bad memory? You even repeated it twice." Zhu Xing said with a smile.
"What do you know, kid?" Zhu Yong glared at him. "I told you to read more books and newspapers."
"What does this have to do with reading books and newspapers?" Zhu Xing curled his lips.
Zhu Yong simply didn't want to talk to his troubled nephew. "Su Qingyun from Luoshui Village is the same Su Qingyun who was praised in the provincial newspaper before. Your father used this to teach you a lesson. Have you forgotten?"
Zhu Xing was stunned. He recalled silently and it seemed to be true. He looked at Su Qingyun, whose expression remained unchanged, and his eyes changed. Could it be that this person was a big shot who had been in the newspaper?
"Comrade Su, I'll make arrangements right away. Please wait a moment."
Zhu Yong's attitude had become visibly better. Su Qingyun sighed in his heart that sometimes, those empty titles could play a big role.
Zhu Yong instructed Zhu Xing, "Axing, send Comrade Su out later."
"Okay, thank you Director Zhu, you go ahead and do your work first." Su Qingyun said hurriedly.
The deputy director greeted him, and soon a middle-aged man with a simple and honest appearance came into the office. He introduced himself, "My name is Shen Changfu, and I'm an old brick-making worker in the factory. Director Zhu asked me to go with you to check out the situation."
"Thank you so much." Su Qingyun said gratefully.
It was still early, so in order to arrive before work ended at noon, the two of them did not delay and bought tickets directly to Luoshui Town.
Su Qingyun led his men all the way to the village, and the unfamiliar faces attracted a lot of attention.
"Who is the man following the Su family's little girl? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"The clothes that person was wearing seemed to have the words 'Red Star Factory' on them."
"Isn't the Red Star Factory a brick factory in the county? Why did the people from the brick factory come with Su Qingyun?"
"They seem to be heading towards the school. Nothing will happen, right?"
"Let's go and take a look."
Several people followed Su Qingyun and the others towards the school under construction. It was time to get off work, and many people were sitting down to rest after being tired for a whole morning.
The educated youth had all gone to eat, leaving only a few workers from the brick factory. Qin Youfu had arranged their lunch, which was delivered by someone from the village.
Several workers at the brick factory gathered together, looking at Zhang Meng smoking a cigarette not far away. One worker whispered, "Well, is there really no problem with this?"
He glanced at the bricks piled nearby and said, "The quality of these bricks is not good. If something goes wrong, we will be in trouble. Mengge has his brother-in-law to protect him. What should we do?"
"That's right. I'm worried too. This is a school being built. If anything goes wrong, we'll all be finished."
"Who says it's not? From now on, there will be children coming to class. I can't get over this. How about we go and tell Mengge that we want to go back to the factory and quit?"
"Mengge won't agree. He said before we came that we must finish this before we can leave. Besides, if we leave, Mengge will still suspect that we are going to expose this matter, and he will not let us go either."
"What a piece of shit!" someone cursed bitterly. "Isn't Zhang Meng just relying on the fact that he's Director Xu's brother-in-law? Not only does he bully people around the factory all day long, but he also does such heartless things, dragging us down with him. I really don't want to do this anymore!"
"Director Xu doesn't care about Zhang Meng. If this continues, it will cause trouble sooner or later."
"Do you think Director Xu doesn't know? Don't be silly, maybe it was Director Xu who ordered Zhang Meng to do these things. Otherwise, do you think he has such courage?"
"Well, let's be patient. Brothers, we should do our work seriously. As long as it's not a natural disaster like a big earthquake, it won't be easy to go wrong." One person said with a lucky mentality.
"By the way, do you think what that girl said last time was true? Will she really find the brick factory?"
"I actually hope she can go. It would be best if she could report the matter to the higher-ups and get rid of Zhang Meng. That way, we'd be free."
"I hope so, but I have to say it, that girl looks young and knows a lot."
"Haven't you heard from the villagers? That girl is really promising! The provincial leaders have praised her and she's even been in the newspapers."
Several people were chatting in low voices. Zhang Meng, who was standing farther away, had just finished smoking a cigarette. Thinking about the money he had made recently, he was in a very good mood. In addition to the money he earned from these defective bricks, the wages for these workers were also not a small amount, and his pockets were bulging.
Just as he was thinking about how to sell the remaining bricks in the factory, he saw a large group of people coming towards him from afar. He quickly stood up and looked at the person walking in front and spat impatiently.
Why is that girl here again?
Su Qingyun came up to him, but before he could say anything, Zhang Meng said with a stern face, "What are you doing here again?"
"That's strange." Su Qingyun chuckled. "This is our village. This is the school built with funds raised by our villagers. Why can't I come? I can come whenever I want."
This was a matter of course. Zhang Meng's throat choked and he could only explain palely: "I mean, we are busy now. No one else should disturb us."
He casually glanced behind Su Qingyun. It would be fine if this damn girl came alone, but why did these villagers follow her?
Su Qingyun glanced at the school in front of her. It had been several days since she last came here, but only a little more space had been built than last time. The construction progress was too slow.
