Chapter 140: Lou Ma was deceived and killed by Ji Yue
The old lady agreed: "Okay, why did you suddenly think of doing this?"
Rong Zhen said helplessly, "It's because I've been hit on the head by falling wall paint every time I passed by the building. The company that fired me just happened to give me compensation, so they're cleaning up the facade of our building."
"You've been fired, what can you do with that little money? Let's pay for it. It's enough for each family to pool their money." The old lady understood what she meant and offered some advice.
Since this is the job that Lao Lou wants, everyone should chip in. We can't rely on just one unemployed girl.
These guys all had some savings when they were alive, and it would be a waste to just leave them there. It would be nice to use them to improve the living environment of the old building.
Rong Zhen quickly shook her head, "That won't work. I already agreed to paint the whole exterior white, so I have to pay for it. I'm afraid it won't work if you pay."
To those who understand, this statement is very straightforward.
The old lady had no choice but to give up.
But since she was so willing, Rong Zhen offered a suggestion: "By the time the outside is finished, the inside can still be the same. For the sake of our future living experience, why don't you all pool your money and renovate the building?"
In this way, the house can be renovated inside and out, the owner of the building will definitely be satisfied, and they will live comfortably.
The old lady nodded and said, "Well, let's not bother two people with the same problem. Once he finishes the work outside, he can start working inside. The wages will be according to what you agreed with him."
The old lame man who was named by her was shaking like a sieve, his dark brown face was almost turning blue, and he looked like a living person half dead.
"Old man, I, I, I can't do it alone. How about you..." He swallowed with a gurgling sound in his throat and continued tremblingly, "How about asking for help from someone else?"
Rongzhen was surprised. They had already agreed on it, so how could he go back on his word?
But before she could say anything, the old lady had already snorted coldly: "Since you are here, finish the work before leaving. It won't cost you your life. Work hard and you will get paid."
Her words were more effective than Rong Zhen's hundred previous words. After she finished speaking, the old lame man didn't dare to refute her. His hands and feet were shaking badly, but he buried his head in his work at an incredible speed.
Seeing this, Rongzhen quickly transferred the position of supervisor to the old lady.
The old lady took over the burden without hesitation, still standing in the shade and chatting with her, asking if she would go out to find a job again after losing her job.
Rongzhen told the other party that she had found a new job at Jiyue Group, which was not far away in the suburbs.
The old lady was pleasantly surprised and said, "What a coincidence! I was just about to tell you this. There's something going on over there, and they need a lot of people. My husband has a friend who works as a security guard there. If you run into any problems while working overtime at night, you can ask him for help."
Rongzhen was surprised. It turns out that Guiyi also has connections?
Or is it a strange vein relationship?
Anyway, no matter what it is, more relationships mean more paths. Write it down first, you may need it someday in the future.
"Do you know what the specific situation is with Ji Yue?" Rong Zhen tried to find out more details.
The old lady shook her head, indicating that she had never been there and only knew this much.
Rongzhen pondered and thought that it seemed that he could only investigate it himself after work.
While the two were talking, the old lame man had quickly sorted out the materials he had bought and began to tremble as he set up the scaffolding.
Rong Zhen couldn't bear it any longer and stepped forward to help, but he refused with a look of deep fear: "I'll do it, I'll do it, you, you go and rest."
If before coming to the old building, or before seeing her talking to the old lady, he could still treat her as an ordinary girl, but now that he has witnessed her communicating with those things with his own eyes, he dare not treat her casually.
The change in attitude was so obvious that Rong Zhen could not help but understand that he knew the old lady's identity.
And those people in the labor market are most likely aware of this as well.
They kept their distance from this place, even being extremely taboo about it, but it seemed that they had never thought of reporting or publicizing the abnormality of this place. They just concealed it in their own circle, and it became a secret that everyone knew but could not tell.
Is it because of fear? Or is it because he can't contact the Abnormal Affairs Bureau?
Rongzhen didn't know the reason, but what was certain was that many people should know about the existence of the old building.
But why do Sister Zhou and Xiao Wang act like they know nothing about this and have no reaction?
Rongzhen scratched his ear and stopped thinking about it because he couldn't understand it for a moment.
Seeing that the old lame man refused to let her help, and he was climbing up and down shakily on his own, looking very dangerous, Rong Zhen was worried that something might happen if he wasn't careful, so she simply discussed it with him, "You can see, we are peaceful and nothing has happened here. Why don't you go to the labor market and call two helpers you know? I'll pay you daily wages."
This way you don't have to worry too much.
Old lame man: "..."
In the end, the two of them returned to the labor market and brought back two big and strong new guys who had just entered the industry and knew nothing.
The old lame man lured the two little donkeys who couldn't resist the temptation under the pretext of taking them as apprentices and teaching them renovation experience.
These two men looked young, strong and full of masculinity. In addition, they had just arrived here not long ago and were not very aware of the terrible reputation of Lao Lou among them. In order to earn money and for the old lame man's craftsmanship, they followed him to work without asking anyone else.
By the time they heard about the strangeness of the old building from others later, they had already worked for several days and received a few hundred yuan in wages. Nothing had happened, so they just thought it was a rumor spread by their cowardly colleagues.
The decoration team is in place, as is the supervisor. Apart from paying on time, Rongzhen doesn't need to do anything else.
She extricated herself from the matter and rode her bike leisurely to work at Jiyue on Monday.
Ever since Xiao Huang changed his skin, he no longer quarreled with her. As long as he was praised just enough, his driving speed could catch up with that of a car, which was very fast and stable.
It took Rong Zhen a few kilometers from the old building in the urban village to Jiyue Group. It took her a long time to arrive, but the speed was too fast and the wind was too strong, which made her hair fly and filled her mouth with dust.
It seems I will have to buy another helmet in the future.
While Rongzhen was thinking about this, he parked his bike and went to check in.
This was her first day at work, and her timing was just right. After clocking in, she was taken to an office by her new boss.
It was not the room they had interviewed a few days ago, but a room further inside, which also had a strange printing machine. Her task was to print out samples of some designed magazines, reading materials and other publications according to the workload.
Rongzhen noticed something strange and found that the printing machine given to her was slightly different from the one used during the interview. She calmly followed the instructions and began to operate the machine, but she was already thinking in her mind.
By the way, these new arrivals won’t each have their own office and a strange printing machine, right?
I will find a chance to check it out later. If this is true, Ji Yue may be able to mass-produce this strange printing machine, and their functions are probably not simple, definitely not just printing things.
The new machine had not seen Rong Zhen's power yet. At first, it was unwilling to cooperate and was as irritable as a thorn. It only behaved itself after being kicked by her.
The boss was initially reluctant to agree, but Rongzhen acted like a single man who said, "If I can't do it, you'll do it," and successfully shut him up and made him leave.
After he left, Rongzhen immediately stopped and used the PUA strange printing machine: "A mature machine should work automatically. Do you want to be a mature one, or a brat?"
The naughty kid couldn't bear to hear this, and immediately stood up and said that it was already a mature machine.
Therefore, as a mature printing machine, it should print out those publications automatically instead of relying on manual operation!
Weird Printing Press: Yes, that’s right.
The fooled kid plunged into the ocean of taking on adults' work, buzzing around like an industrious little bee, having a lot of fun.
Rongzhen had a chance to take a break and looked around. She didn't find any surveillance cameras, so just in case, she pretended to be in a hurry and hurried out to find a bathroom.
Because she was not familiar with the place, she could not find the bathroom for a while, but she found that there were two rows of rooms in the corridor outside that were similar to her office, with the same strange printing machines, different operators, and their respective printing tasks.
Every room was buzzing with activity, and the occasional screams and cries of pain were drowned out by the noise and were barely audible.
Rong Zhen quietly lay outside an office door that was not closed tightly, and through the crack in the door, she clearly saw the miserable scene inside. The strange printing machine suddenly became violent for some reason and swallowed half of the operator's arm. Screams echoed inside and outside the room, but no one came to help.
“!!”
No wonder the monthly salary is so high, it turns out this job is so dangerous, and Ji Yue didn’t reveal anything about it during the interview!
What is this attempt to do? To trick people into coming in and being killed by the weird printing machine?
Rongzhen felt a chill in her heart and quickly called the police and the emergency number. After that, she quickly pushed the door open and went in to help the man stop the bleeding.
Otherwise, if the ambulance doesn't arrive, this person will probably bleed to death.
The man's face and body were covered in blood. When he saw Rong Zhen rushing in, he grabbed her hand while she tore off his sleeve to bandage it and said incoherently: "Go, go, don't worry about me, they are coming. You must escape if you have a chance. This is a hell that eats people..."
After finishing these words with difficulty, he tilted his head and fainted.
Rongzhen immediately realized that there was trouble.
She had already called the police and an ambulance, and her mobile phone number was registered with her real name.
If Ji Yue traces her back, it will depend on whether she can make excuses. If not, she will ask Sister Zhou for help.
If it involves strange creatures eating people, the Bureau of Extraordinary Events will definitely take care of it, right?
Rong Zhen remembered the injured man in front of her very clearly. He was not one of them who came in with them. He might have come before and discovered something during work.
For example, a colleague had been swallowed by a printing press, and might have witnessed it with her own eyes, just as she witnessed half of his arm being swallowed.
He said he wanted to escape, but if Ji Yue found out that she knew the truth, wouldn't he control her and not let her go home, and make her stay here and work for them until all her value was squeezed out and she was devoured by the machine?
This is truly a capitalist among capitalists. She has found the baby!
From the moment she came in here, she had an even stronger feeling than during the interview, that something was attracting her.
Her body's instinct kept urging her to go there quickly. She had relied on willpower to hold back from moving before, and this was also the reason why she sneaked out for a stroll later.
