Seeing Liu Haizhong accept the fine, Feng Biao nodded in satisfaction.
"Old Liu, that's right. Only by understanding the big picture can you achieve better results and development. I think you are very suitable for some important positions. It's a waste of your talents to stay in the workshop all the time."
Liu Haizhong, who had just been looking miserable, suddenly perked up.
"Really? Captain Feng, you think so too?"
Liu Haizhong was in high spirits. It turned out that there were still people who recognized his talent. Wang Dabao had said the same thing last time!
Feng Biao's face turned red, and he turned his head and coughed violently. He wasn't faking it; he genuinely choked on his own saliva.
Originally, he was just making up a pie in the sky, which wasn't even a real pie in the sky, just empty talk. Who knew that Liu Haizhong could actually take it in? This made Feng Biao lose his mind, and even swallowing his saliva became an unexpected reaction.
After coughing for a while, Feng Biao clutched his chest to catch his breath, sighed, and opened his mouth again.
"But Lao Liu, you should be prepared, the amount of this fine is not low."
"How much...?"
The joy in Liu Haizhong's heart was instantly wiped out by the fine. Now all he could think about were eggs, waiting for Feng Biao to utter the fine so he could immediately calculate how many eggs it would be worth.
"Two hundred yuan."
Upon hearing the number, Liu Haizhong's heart clenched.
He thought to himself, "Oh no, I could never eat this many eggs in my entire life!"
Two hundred yuan is a significant sum for anyone these days, except for Wang Dabao, of course.
But thinking that he could keep his job, Liu Haizhong had no choice but to accept it. He had already cursed Xu Damao's manufacturers a hundred times in his heart, but then he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll pay."
Feng Biao stood up and patted Liu Haizhong on the shoulder twice to comfort him: "Don't worry about it, everything will be fine once you pay the fine!"
Subsequently, Feng Biao and Liu Haizhong left the interrogation room.
Liu Haizhong went home to get money, while Feng Biao checked the time and quickly turned into another interrogation room.
On his way home to get the money, Liu Haizhong sighed all the way, calculating how much of the family's savings would be left after paying the fine, and whether it would be enough to help his eldest son get married.
Liu Haizhong walked home dejectedly. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Yan Bugui's wife standing at the door, anxiously looking around.
"Second Aunt, what are you doing? Is Old Yan home?"
Liu Haizhong, who hadn't intended to speak, eventually mustered his spirits and exchanged a few pleasantries with Yan Bugui's wife.
"What home is he in? Teacher Zhao from the neighboring courtyard just came over and said that Lao Yan was taken away by the factory's security personnel right after he left school."
Yan Bugui's wife panicked and stamped her feet anxiously. "I sent Jiefang to the factory to inquire, but I still haven't heard anything."
Liu Haizhong's heart skipped a beat. He knew that this whole thing was orchestrated by Xu Damao, Yan Bugui, and Yan Jiecheng. What did it mean that Yan Bugui had been arrested?
This means the factory's security department already has evidence that they're spreading rumors!
The fact that Yan Bugui was taken away from the school indirectly proves the seriousness of the matter.
Liu Haizhong was startled. Luckily, he had Wang Dabao's connection; otherwise, he might have really lost his job.
Fortunately, Yan Bugui was unaware of Wang Dabao's identity. Otherwise, Wang Dabao would likely be overwhelmed, unable to help both sides. If he were to help Yan Bugui, what would become of him?!
Liu Haizhong didn't have time to talk to Yan Bugui's wife anymore and hurriedly rushed to his home in the backyard.
At this point, the most important thing is to pay the fine as soon as possible and keep your job.
When Liu Haizhong returned home, he told his wife what had happened, which almost made Guangtian's mother faint.
"Everyone says I kept my job, but I was fined two hundred yuan."
Liu Haizhong quickly helped his wife up, "You didn't see how distraught Yan Bugui's wife looked. I think Old Yan is in trouble this time. That bastard Xu Damao is really despicable. He's caused all the trouble, and no one has gotten away with it."
"Forget it, as long as we keep our jobs, that's fine. Otherwise, how will we afford to get the boss a wife?"
Liu Haizhong's wife wanted to complain a bit more, but seeing her husband's tired and dejected face, she swallowed her words and just muttered that they would have to tighten their belts from now on.
Liu Haizhong hadn't forgotten his mission upon returning and urged his wife to hurry up and find the money.
A few minutes later, he dragged his heavy steps out of the house. He knew that his family would have to tighten their belts from now on, and they wouldn't have to eat eggs anymore.
After parting ways with Liu Haizhong, Feng Biao went straight to Yan Bugui's room.
There are several more waiting in line. If we don't hurry up and scare them... uh, I mean interrogate them, it might delay our lunch.
The task was assigned by Wang Dabao; he didn't trust anyone else to do it, and he wouldn't be able to explain if it was messed up.
Pushing open the door, one sees Yan Bugui sitting upright, looking like an honest man.
"Yan Bugui, do you know why I called you here?" Feng Biao asked casually, sitting down opposite Yan Bugui.
"Captain, I really don't know. I'm known for being a very honest and upright person, and I never do anything outside the rules."
Yan Bugui smiled and agreed.
"Hmph, still pretending with me? You dare say you know nothing about Yi Zhonghai's affairs?"
Feng Biao slammed his hand on the table, startling Yan Bugui so much that his eyelids trembled. "Xu Damao has already confessed, admitting that you conspired to scheme against Yi Zhonghai. How come you claim to be unaware of it?"
"You call yourself an elementary school teacher, yet you claim to be honest and upright. You look like a cunning and treacherous person. I think you're just stubborn and won't give up until you see the truth. Do you want me to bring Xu Damao's statement over for you to see?!"
Yan Bugui's face paled in shock, his heart nearly leaping out of his throat. His small eyes darted around behind his glasses. "Captain, this is absolutely slander! I do know that Xu Damao wanted to spread rumors and frame Yi Zhonghai, but I didn't participate. If you don't believe me, go ask around at the school."
Feng Biao sneered inwardly, "So, Yan Bugui, you were waiting for me all along."
"Yan Bugui, I call you Teacher Yan. As a teacher, you must know the law, right?"
Another snap.
Feng Biao slammed his hand on the table, startling Yan Bugui so much that his glasses almost slipped off his face.
“You were there at the time and participated in planning this slander, which has had an extremely negative impact on the factory area. Moreover, it was your son who came up with the idea. Do you think you two can get away with this?!”
"Captain, this must be Xu Damao making up something out of desperation. He's trying to drag me and my son into this. Please investigate!"
Yan Bugui said with a mournful face.
Feng Biao squinted at Yan Bugui, surprised that things had encountered an obstacle at this point.
"Really? But your son has already confessed. What do you have to say now?"
Yan Bugui stammered and couldn't answer for a long time. Feng Biao sneered, "Why aren't you making excuses anymore? Just wait and see if we can peel off your teacher's skin."
After saying that, Feng Biao got up and left.
With a thud, Yan Bugui knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly, and kept admitting his mistake.
In any case, the blame was placed on Xu Damao, who and his son were deceived and made mistakes.
