Ye Zhiqiu drove the car for about ten minutes before finding a place to stop. He then put the bags in the car into the space and began to take the fish out to freeze them.
The fish jumped in the snow for a short while, then soon became motionless. After about ten minutes, its surface had hardened.
Only then did Ye Zhiqiu put the fish into the space, weighed them in sacks, and then used paper to record the weight of the fish in each bag.
When the weight reached 2,030 kilograms, Ye Zhiqiu placed the bags of fish at the back of the car and then returned to the driver's seat.
This was actually pretty fucked up. He couldn't go back too early, so he was destined to sit there and wait for time to pass.
Time passed slowly. When Ye Zhiqiu saw that the time on his watch was half past eight, he started the car and turned around to drive back.
When he returned to the alley, he was extremely surprised because there was another Yellow River truck parked at the door!
Only then did he remember that he and Wang Fugui had agreed to arrive here at around eight o'clock.
After Ye Zhiqiu parked the car, the noise of the car was heard by Ma Banghua who was waiting anxiously in the house. He smiled and said to everyone, "Maybe he's back. I'll go out and see if he is!"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to take his men out.
Because they had something to do tonight, Ye Tianya and the other three went back to their rooms early. Ye Zhiqiu and Wang Fugui had told them to leave it alone, and that there couldn't be too many people present, for fear that they might accidentally let the cat out of the bag.
Wang Fugui said to the three people sitting next to him, "Xiao Chen, you guys go out and take a look too. If it's my eldest grandson who's back, just do as I agreed with you. Give him the car keys and let him go get the stuff."
The middle-aged man called Xiao Chen had a very thin and yellow face, but his eyes were very bright.
He smiled and said, "Haha, teacher, we still have the funds. Let's negotiate the price. We'll pay the money and then let your eldest grandson get the things?"
Wang Fugui shook his head and whispered, "What we're doing is a violation of discipline. I'm old now, so even if they find out about me, it won't be a big deal. They can't send me back to labor reform, and I believe they can't treat me like that."
But you are still young, so you must not use the company's funds for this. After all, you must never forget that the expenditure of funds must be clear to the last cent!"
"But teacher... you received such a large amount of supplies for no reason. I'm afraid you will be investigated..."
Wang Fugui waved his hand and said, "Then let them try us! My Wang family is full of loyal and brave people who would rather die than reveal the names of our people! If they have the nerve to try me, then let them try me!"
Seeing that Wang Fugui insisted, the middle-aged man whom he called Xiao Chen didn't know how to persuade him anymore.
He stood up, bowed slightly to Wang Fugui with the other two people, and then walked outside.
Ye Zhiqiu had already finished communicating with Ma Banghua and the others, and handed him the paper recording the weight of the fish.
Then he whispered in his ear, "Brother Banghua, the total weight is 2,030 kilograms. Because these fish are frozen, they are more or less covered with ice.
So I negotiated for the 30 kilograms to be reduced, and the price was calculated based on 2,000 kilograms. I tell you this so that you have an idea.
If the factory doesn't mind, there's a 30-pound difference, so I don't need to be too blunt, right?"
Ma Banghua's eyes flashed with surprise. He nodded repeatedly and whispered, "I understand. Thank you for your hard work, brother!"
Four thousand yuan is four unopened stacks of Big Black Tens!
After Ye Zhiqiu took it, he put it back into the bag and said to the others, "Hurry up and take the fish back to weigh it. If there's any mistake in the weight, come and tell me. I have something else to do here, so I won't say any more."
Ma Banghua also noticed the three people walking out over there, so he didn't waste any words, nodded and waved his hand for everyone to get in the car and immediately take the fish back to the factory.
The three of them came to Ye Zhiqiu, and the one with the surname Chen said directly: "Xiao Ye, my name is Chen Erbao, and your grandfather is my mentor. Do you mind if I call you that?"
Of course Ye Zhiqiu doesn’t mind!
So he smiled and replied, "That's right, Uncle Chen, you can call me whatever you want! The deal has been settled, I can drive over and pick it up right now. They'll have someone waiting here with me. After you confirm everything is correct, I'll give them the money. Is that okay?"
Chen Erbao nodded and said, "No problem, but there are some things I need to tell you, so that you won't have any grudges with my mentor in the future."
Ye Zhiqiu didn’t understand what was going on, but what could be wrong between him and Wang Fugui?
"Uncle Chen, just say what you want to say. Don't worry, my whole family respects my grandfather. No matter what, we can talk it over."
"My dear teacher, the money for the supplies this time was from his own savings. As you should know, our company will thoroughly investigate the use of the funds.
My mentor was worried that this would harm us and also trap you, so he suggested that he use his savings to pay for the goods.
I'm worried that you might have misunderstandings about this matter in the future, so I'm giving you a heads-up. What do you think? "
Ye Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment. What should he think?
He took over the money for buying fish from Ma Banghua Textile Factory and had already accumulated a deposit of 10,000 yuan. Could he still think about the money from Wang Fugui?
Not to mention him, even Wang Xiaolan and the others didn’t care about him!
So Ye Zhiqiu smiled and waved his hand and said, "Well, I thought you were talking about something, Uncle Chen! You don't think that we recognize the old man just for his money, do you?
If you think that, you're really underestimating us! We're not after his money, and if he wants to donate his estate to our company, we'll have no objection!
By the way, let me show you this thing. I am also from our unit! Although my cheap grandpa said that I only deliver mail, the people who deliver mail are also our own people, right? "
Ye Zhiqiu took out his ID, and Chen Erbao smiled. How could he not know that he was also from the company? He was the one who submitted the file!
People in their line of work are quite good at judging people! At least he knew that Ye Zhiqiu was sincere when he saw what he said, and it wasn't just a casual remark.
So he quickly said, "Okay, I'm relieved to hear you say that. Put the ID away quickly, you can't just take it out casually. It's getting late, so grab the keys and get busy!"
"Okay, give me the car keys. It'll probably take two hours. Go back and sit in the living room first."
After taking the keys, Ye Zhiqiu didn't say much. He got into the car, started it, and quickly drove away from Sanlitun.
