"I don't know you at all. How do you know I know the person you are looking for?" Yun Yan asked vigilantly.
"A few days ago, I came to Shashi in the same car with you. I heard that you were from the Red Flag Brigade, and the people I was looking for were in the Red Flag Brigade. That's why I wanted to ask you if you had seen them." Shen Ye explained.
Yun Yan listened to his explanation, but still remained vigilant: "What's the name of the person you're looking for?"
"I'm looking for my grandparents. My grandfather's name is Shen Lei, and my grandmother's name is Liang Wanying. They were sent down to the Red Flag Brigade. I wonder if you've seen them?"
When Yun Yan heard that he wanted to inquire about the people who were demoted, her face changed immediately: "I don't know any demoted people, and don't ask me about them. I don't want to cause trouble."
She was about to leave immediately after saying that, but Shen Ye came up and stopped her.
"You look like a soldier, right? Guess what would you do if I yell 'Catch the hooligans'?"
Yun Yan looked at the man in front of her and refused to let her go, so she had no choice but to use threats.
"If we get to the Public Security Bureau, I'll tell the police that you stopped me from leaving because you wanted to find out about the bad elements who were demoted. I guess you'll have to take off your military uniform."
When Shen Ye heard Yun Yan say this, he could only think of another way. After all, it was indeed against the rules for him to come to visit his grandparents.
"I see you and your friend have been wanting to meet the department store manager these days. Do you want to discuss business with him?"
Chen Ye suddenly thought of the three days he had followed them. They went to the department store every day to look for someone, but always returned empty-handed. Perhaps he could start from here.
"What do you want to say?"
"If you help me find my grandparents, I can introduce you to the manager of the department store."
The manager of Shaxi Department Store is my grandfather's old subordinate. If it is for information about my grandfather, he should do me a favor.
"Show me a photo of your grandparents. There are indeed a few old men and women who were sent down to the Red Flag Brigade, but I don't know if your grandparents are among them."
Although I was very tempted by his proposal, I couldn't fool him.
Shen Ye quickly took out a family photo from his coat pocket and handed it to Yun Yan.
"Those sitting in the middle of the photo are my grandparents."
Yun Yan took the photo and looked at it carefully. Although the people living in the cowshed now looked very miserable, she still recognized that the people in the photo were two of them.
"I've seen these two people in the Red Flag Brigade. They were indeed those who were demoted."
"Then can you take me to meet them? I've been looking for them for a long time." Shen Ye said excitedly.
"Then you have to take me to see the manager of Shashi Department Store first. I can't take such a risk without any benefit."
"I can introduce you to each other, but I can't guarantee that he will be willing to buy your products." Chen Ye felt that he had to make it clear to her in advance.
"Of course. As long as you can introduce him to me, you'll be doing me a favor, and I'll naturally help you."
Then the two introduced themselves to each other. Yun Yan learned that his name was Chen Ye, a native of Beijing who was currently serving in the army in Harbin.
Chen Ye followed Yun Yan all the way back to the guesthouse, and only then did she realize that Chen Ye was still living in the same guesthouse as her.
It seems that what he said about following me for a few days was true. I didn't even notice it. Is it because his anti-reconnaissance ability is too strong, or is it because I was too focused on my career and ignored my own safety?
The two agreed to meet at the entrance of the department store tomorrow morning, and Yunyan returned to her room.
When Shen Ye saw Yun Yan return to her room, he immediately turned around and went downstairs to leave the guesthouse. He wanted to go and explain the cause of the matter to Yi Zhongtian in advance to avoid any trouble later.
Arriving at Yi Zhongtian's house, Shen Ye reached out and knocked on the door. Yi Zhongtian's wife heard the knock and went out to open the door. She saw a person she didn't recognize standing outside: "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
“Hello sister-in-law, I’m here to look for Brother Yi. I’m from Jing City. My name is Shen Ye.”
After hearing what he said, Yi Zhongtian's wife immediately shouted into the house: "Old Yi, someone named Shen Ye is looking for you."
When Yi Zhongtian heard Shen Ye's name, he immediately ran out of the room. When he saw Shen Ye, he felt mixed emotions.
"Xiao Ye, why did you come to see me suddenly?" Yi Zhongtian felt strange. Ever since he learned that the old leader was demoted because of his own son's betrayal, he had never seen anyone from the Shen family again.
"Brother Yi, I came to you today to ask for your help with something very important. It's related to my grandparents." Shen Ye said in a low voice.
When Yi Zhongtian heard Shen Ye mention the old leader who had been demoted, he knew that the matter was serious, so he took him to the study and had a private talk behind closed doors.
"Xiaoye, have you found out where your grandparents are?" Yi Zhongtian asked excitedly.
In the past two years, he has secretly asked people to inquire about the whereabouts of the old leader, but there has been no news.
"Brother Yi, I did find the place where my grandparents were exiled, but I still need your help to see them."
Shen Ye told Yi Zhongtian about the deal with Yun Yan, and Yi Zhongtian thought about it and agreed.
The next morning at eight o'clock, Yun Yan brought Yang Qian to the entrance of the department store, where Shen Ye was already waiting.
Seeing Yun Yan coming over, he immediately walked up to her and said, "Yan Yan, why are you here just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Yun Yan got goosebumps from feeling disgusted when she called her "Yan Yan". What on earth did this girl want to do?
Yang Qian asked curiously, "Yun Yan, who is he?"
It must be Yunyan’s relative or lover, otherwise why would she call him so affectionately.
"I don't..." Yun Yan started to explain.
Chen Ye immediately interrupted her and said with a smile: "I am Yanyan's cousin. I happened to meet her yesterday when I was on a business trip to Shashi. I heard Yanyan said she wanted to look for the manager of the Shashi Department Store. I happened to know him, so I specially asked Yanyan to come over again today."
Yun Yan looked at Chen Ye lying with his eyes open and cursed him in her heart.
What cousin? This guy is clearly trying to force me to do something. Once things here are over, he can openly follow me to the Red Flag Brigade to meet his grandparents.
If Yun Yan didn’t know that she couldn’t beat him, she would really want to kick him hard.
While Yang Qian wasn't paying attention, Yun Yan glared at him fiercely!
Shen Ye knew that his actions were indeed taking advantage of someone's misfortune, but he had no other choice. He had to go to the Red Flag Brigade to see his grandparents, so he had to have a suitable excuse.
This time, with Shen Ye leading the way, Yun Yan easily met Yi Zhongtian.
"Originally, there is no precedent for this in our department store, but you are Chen Ye's cousin, so I can give you a chance. As for how much your sweet potato vermicelli can sell in the end, that depends on you." Yi Zhongtian said straight to the point.
