"Master, what does he mean?"
Xiao Zhang is still confused.
"Nothing, just stay away from him from now on."
"Understood, Master. I'll go find someone to take over my shift."
The two of them had to leave early, otherwise they would have to stay in the provincial capital overnight.
Beep beep beep~
The security guard opened the gate, and Cheng Fangyi drove the truck slowly towards the provincial capital.
Liao Guoming spent the whole morning hanging around outside looking for connections, but still found nothing.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Liao Guoming hurried back to the factory to have lunch.
In the cafeteria, Liao Guoming was searching everywhere for Cheng Fangyi.
If he couldn't find her in the afternoon, he would have to place his last hope on Cheng Fangyi.
"Lao Liao, what are you looking for?"
The captain of the second team saw Liao Guoming sticking his head out several times while eating.
"I'm looking for Brother Cheng from the team. I didn't understand what he said about the spark plug last time, so I want to ask him again."
"You probably won't be able to ask him then. He and his apprentice are out driving to the provincial capital and won't be back for a while. I remember Lao Xie was there when he said that. You can go ask him."
Go to the provincial capital...
Liao Guoming's first reaction was that Cheng Fangyi went to the provincial capital to hide.
"Forget it, I'm not in a hurry."
Knowing that Cheng Fangyi was not at the factory, Liao Guoming felt a little bored during his lunch.
After washing the lunch box, Liao Guoming slipped out of the textile factory again under the pretext of going to the toilet.
This time he didn't run around like a headless fly, but went straight to the meat processing plant.
"Uncle, do you still remember me? I came here to buy meat yesterday."
"I don't remember. People come and go every day. I only have one head, how can I remember so many people?"
The gatekeeper tapped his pipe and closed the small window.
Liao Guoming did not give up and kept shouting.
"Uncle, I was here just yesterday and I had an internal ticket. How could you not remember? Otherwise, I won't go in. Please call someone for me. His last name is Su."
The gatekeeper didn't even raise his eyelids, looking unmoved.
Liao Guoming reluctantly took out two cents from his pocket.
"Uncle, please be flexible and help me pass on the message and ask Brother Su to come out."
The old man reopened the small window and quickly put the two cents into his pocket.
"There are many people with the surname Su in the factory. How would I know who it is if you just tell me the surname?"
"Brother Su, who lives in a water village and whose brother-in-law works in a textile factory."
Su Che was very good at dealing with people. From time to time, he would give the gatekeeper some tobacco, candy, dried meat, etc. As soon as Liao Guoming said that it was Brother Su from the Water Village, the gatekeeper knew who he was.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Liao Guoming, and I'm a colleague of his brother-in-law. Uncle, I also work in the textile factory. Seriously, if you don't believe me, you can go to the textile factory and ask around. I'm sure you'll find me there."
"Wait."
After figuring out how to pass the message, the old man closed the small window again.
He walked towards the factory with a hunched back.
In the meat processing plant, Su Che was using a butcher knife to cut a whole pig into strips.
Originally this was Zhu Rourong's job, but his hand was twisted, and seeing that his superiors were waiting for the meat, Su Che had to take over temporarily.
"Xiao Su, Xiao Su, there's someone called Liao Guoming looking for you outside."
The bang bang bang sound of chopping meat was particularly harsh in the empty factory.
The old man was afraid that the blood would splash on his clothes, so he shouted from more than a meter away.
"Mr. Lu, it's you. Who's looking for me?"
"A man called Liao Guoming."
Afraid that Su Che couldn't hear clearly, the old man raised his voice several degrees.
"Mr. Lu, I don't know anyone with the surname Liao. Maybe I got the wrong person?"
"Oh, I see. He said he was a colleague of your brother-in-law and came to the factory to get meat yesterday. I thought you knew him."
As soon as Mr. Lu reminded him, Su Che remembered who it was.
"Mr. Lu, I'll divide the meat first. Ask him to wait for me."
"good."
After delivering the message, Mr. Lu jumped towards the gate.
"Wait, he'll come see you when he's done."
Liao Guoming was filled with resentment, but because he needed help from others, he didn't dare to speak it out loud.
So he found a shady place and squatted down.
Su Che finally arrived after his legs became numb from squatting.
She hadn't taken off her apron yet, and the bloodstains on it were still very bright.
Liao Guoming thought to himself: So he is a pig butcher. I thought Cheng Fangyi’s elder brother was a cadre or a small leader in the meat processing plant.
"Brother, are you looking for me?"
Su Che held a cigarette in his mouth and spoke slowly.
"Do you still remember me, Brother Cheng's colleague? I'm really embarrassed to say this, but the pig's trotters I bought yesterday were eaten by my unruly son, and I didn't get to eat a single bite while I was in confinement.
I'm worried about my child, so I have no choice but to come to you again to ask for help and give you another pig's trotter."
Su Che sneered.
"Sure, 80 cents a pound, 90 cents without a ticket."
"No, I only paid 60 cents yesterday, and I didn't even need a ticket."
"You know it was yesterday, and the price was different at that time. Now everything is expensive. If you think 80 or 90 cents is too expensive, you won't get anything if the news gets out later."
"But this is too expensive. Pork is only 70 cents a pound, and these pig's trotters are mostly bones. It's not worth it no matter how you look at it."
Originally, Liao Guoming wanted to say that no matter how you looked at it, they were trying to trick him.
The words were on the tip of his tongue but he swallowed them back because he saw that Su Che was getting a little impatient.
"Forget it, I'm going back to work."
