It was already past three in the afternoon when Li Weidong left the warehouse on his bicycle.
Today is a rare good day, and the warm winter sun is particularly comfortable on people.
From time to time, you can see young couples shopping on the street. The distance between them is two meters. They look stranger than strangers, which is really cute.
Thinking that he didn't have much food and vegetables at home, Li Weidong got on his bicycle and went to the Chaoyang vegetable market. He bought more than ten kilograms of Chinese cabbage, two kilograms of celery, and two fish. He originally wanted to buy some fat, but the meat rack was early.
It's empty.
It seems that we can only let Fatty Yu help a little bit.
Li Weidong rode his bicycle back to the courtyard with regrets.
As soon as I reached the door of the courtyard, I saw a pretty figure rushing out.
Li Weidong held the brake tightly with both hands and looked at Qin Huairu with wide eyes: "Master, what are you doing? Are you ready to fight?"
Pfft. When Qin Huairu heard this, she almost laughed out loud, covered her mouth and said, "Comrade Wei Dong, I have something to ask you for."
Something happened. Li Weidong subconsciously looked around. Today is the weekend. All the residents in the courtyard are in the courtyard, and the courtyard is very lively.
Does this woman want to
Seeing Li Weidong's strange behavior, Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment before he understood the reason.
She spat lightly and said with a blush on her face: "I came to you this time for a serious matter."
"Since it's a serious matter, let's talk about it at home."
After Li Weidong finished speaking, he pushed his bicycle into the courtyard without looking back.
This man is really cunning.
Qin Huairu quickly followed behind.
Back at home, Yu Li was cleaning the house and hurriedly poured him a glass of boiling water and handed it to him.
Seeing Qin Huairu following behind, Yu Li felt a little strange, but she still greeted him enthusiastically.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" She stood up and was about to pour water for Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu looked very affectionate and grabbed Yu Li's hand: "Oh, sister-in-law, you are feeling heavy, so stop working. I came to your house today because I have something to ask brother Wei Dong for help."
Yu Li smiled and said: "We are all neighbors. As long as we can help, we will definitely help. If we can't help, don't be angry."
Yu Li knew the temperament of Qin Huairu as a vampire, so she did not agree immediately.
Qin Huairu had never taken advantage of Yu Li and knew Yu Li's temperament. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to borrow food this time."
She was not polite, and after sitting down, she repeated what Jia Zhang had said about Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady this morning.
"Brother Wei Dong, according to Jia Zhang, it was Yi Zhonghai who killed Lao Jia, Jia Dongxu's father, Comrade Jia Shan, in order to compete for the promotion spot of fitter."
Li Weidong's eyes suddenly widened and he called out in his heart what a good guy.
Yi Zhonghai made a good calculation. Knowing that he could not have children, he killed Jia Shan and took Jia Shan's position. Then he accepted Jia Dongxu as his apprentice and asked Jia Dongxu to provide for him in the future. This was a win-win situation.
But he didn't expect that Jia Dongxu turned out to be a short-lived ghost and ruined his plan, so he had to take the No. 2 machine as Silly Zhu.
Qin Huairu continued: "Jia Zhang has no evidence, but according to the doubts she said, it was most likely Yi Zhonghai who killed old Jia. Then when the steel rolling mill wanted to investigate, the deaf old lady came forward to stop the investigation.
.”
Yu Li is kind by nature. When she heard this kind of thing, she stood up angrily: "Brother Wei Dong, people like Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady should be arrested and shot, even if it is not to help the Jia family, this kind of thing
We cannot sit idly by and do nothing."
What do you mean by not helping the Jia family? Do you hate our Jia family so much? Qin Huairu cursed, but she did not dare to say it out loud.
"Brother Weidong, everyone in our courtyard knows that you are the most upright person. When encountering injustice, you will draw a sword to help. This time, I ask you to help our family."
Qin Huairu looked at Li Weidong expectantly: "Don't worry, our Jia family is not the kind of ungrateful family. If you can help our family find out what happened back then, I will definitely give you a generous reward."
Of course Li Weidong knew what Qin Huairu's so-called reward was, but
He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Comrade Qin Huairu, this matter has happened for so many years, and it is very difficult to investigate. I can help you investigate, but don't have too much hope."
Hearing this, Qin Huairu was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
She knew very well that there was nothing Li Weidong wanted to do that he couldn't do.
The reason why Li Weidong agreed to Qin Huairu was not just for her so-called "reward".
What's more important is that he is also very curious about what happened back then.
Early the next morning, Li Weidong rode his bicycle, went straight to the steel rolling mill, and came to the security department.
Section Chief Li Aiguo was sitting at his desk, arranging today's duties. When he saw Li Weidong coming in, he nodded to him and asked him to wait nearby.
Li Weidong turned around and sat on the chair. After waiting for a short while, the security officers received their tasks and left. Li Aiguo walked over with a smile, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over.
"Oh, the sun rises from the west today. Why would the famous Director Li want to come to our Security Department to inspect?"
Li Weidong took the cigarette, struck a match and lit it, took a comfortable puff, and said with a smile: "Chief Li, judging from what you said, we are brothers, so naturally we should come and go frequently."
Li Aiguo chuckled and said: "I may still believe what others say, but I definitely don't believe what you say. Who among us in the steel rolling mill doesn't know that the poverty alleviation workshop is getting bigger and bigger now, and you, Director Li, are so busy?"
Like a top."
Li Aiguo looked at Li Weidong and felt a sigh of relief.
When Li Weidong entered the factory, he worked with him in the guard room. At that time, he was a novice driver. Only a few years later, he became the workshop director. This guy is really extraordinary.
Li Weidong had a good relationship with Li Aiguo on weekdays. After chatting for a while, he explained his purpose of coming.
After listening, Li Aiguo's brows knitted into knots and he took a long puff of cigarette. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Li Weidong: "Weidong, you also know my temperament, Lao Li, who is trying to hurt his brothers.
As long as I can help, I will definitely help."
"but."
"The accident in Jiashan happened more than 20 years ago. Not long after liberation, the steel rolling mill was still the property of the Lou family, and most of the managers in the steel rolling mill were people from the old era. Later, the steel rolling mill became a public-private partnership, and those
Most of the people from the old era have been cleared out of the steel rolling mill, and the archives from that time are here.”
Thinking of the archives, Li Aiguo suddenly paused and his eyes lit up: "By the way, why did I forget the Zhou archives!"
"Jiu Zhou, is there anyone else with such a strange name?"
Li Weidong asked curiously.
"Hum, Zhou Jiji is just a nickname. His real name is Zhou Hengfa, and he is a manager of one of the few existing old steel rolling mills."
Li Aiguo took a deep breath on his cigarette and said with a smile: "After the public-private partnership, the new factory had a new atmosphere. It was not suitable to use the managers before liberation. In addition, those managers often bullied the workers. Now the workers are the owners of the factory.
Naturally there is no place for those people."
"During the process of liquidation, the factory leaders discovered that Zhou Hengfa had never bullied workers, and that he had always been very active before liberation and had provided help to some comrades. In addition, the file management work was very cumbersome.
If a new person comes in, he won't be able to handle it all at once, and it will definitely delay the production work."
"So, after a show of hands vote by the factory committee, Zhou Hengfa was retained."
"He was an old man before liberation. When Jiashan's accident happened, he was in the archives. He may have an impression of what happened back then."
Li Weidong nodded: "Patriotic brother, thank you. Let's go to Donglaishun to have a meal when we have time."
"Oh, that's a good relationship." Seeing Li Weidong getting up to leave, Li Aiguo stood up and said with a smile: "There is no evidence now, and our security department has no way to file a case. The preliminary investigation work has to be carried out by one person, but don't worry, as long as you find
If there are any clues, we can intervene immediately."
Li Weidong knew that Li Aiguo was a person who distinguished between public and private matters and would not show favoritism just because he had a good relationship with him, so he didn't care.
After leaving the Security Section, Li Weidong originally planned to go to the archives room to find File Zhou.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door of the cafeteria, he saw Liu Lan hiding behind the big tree next to the cafeteria and winking secretly at him.
Li Weidong's heart moved. Seeing that there was no one around, he walked slowly over with his hands behind his back.
"Liu Lan, why are you here? Have you finished eating the stick noodles at home?"
"Brother, look at what you said, those stick noodles you gave me, mixed with wild vegetables, can last for a month."
When Liu Lan said this, she looked grateful.
"Then didn't we agree to meet once a week?" Li Weidong looked confused.
After reaching a deal with Liu Lan, Li Weidong considered that he was indeed a little busy, so he could only spare one afternoon for Liu Lan.
Liu Lan's eyebrows were filled with spring, and she said coquettishly: "Who cares? I'm looking for you today because I have business."
"Business?"
"The buyer I mentioned to you last time, Lu Jiangping, claimed to make you look good during lunch yesterday. Of course the workers next to him didn't believe it and laughed at him, but Lu Jiangping looked confident.
He looks full, it seems like he has some leverage over you, you should be more careful lately."
Liu Lan seems to be extremely concerned about this matter. In addition to Li Weidong providing her with stick noodles every month, her strong body makes her even more addicted.
Liu Lan had been tested for a long time, but this was the first time she was defeated. She felt that the first half of her life was in vain.
Li Weidong frowned. Recently, he had not had a private meeting with Yu Haitang. What kind of clue did Lu Jiangping catch?
Forget it, no matter what his plan is, just take him down and you will know when the time comes.
"Liu Lan, you did a good job. If you have news like this in the future, please tell me as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, I won't talk to you anymore, I have to go back to work."
After receiving the compliment, Liu Lan was so excited that she couldn't close her mouth and swung her butt back to the canteen.
Others are already preparing to take action in secret, so Li Weidong cannot sit still and wait for death.
After Li Weidong returned to the poverty alleviation workshop, he immediately invited Fatty Yu to the office.
"Director Li, today's procurement task has been completed. Here is the list of purchased materials. Take a look."
Fatty Yu thought he was asking about his purchase, so he handed over the documents he had prepared long ago.
Li Weidong swallowed the words when he reached his lips, took the document and looked at it carefully.
The documents are recorded in great detail. In addition to the price of the materials, they also include the place and time of purchase.
The purchase price is much lower than the previous purchase price through the steel rolling mill logistics office.
Li Weidong nodded with satisfaction, picked up the pen, signed his name on it, and handed the document back to Fatty Yu.
"Yes, Yu Er, you did a good job this time, and you should continue to do so in the future."
"Brother Weidong, please rest assured that Fatty and I are not unkind people. You have spent so much effort to move me to this position, and I will naturally repay you with the best results."
Yu Er patted his chest and promised.
Li Weidong nodded: "That's right, I have something to do for you now."
"You said that as long as I can do it, I will never refuse. Even if I can't do it, I will try my best to do it!"
"In the Purchasing Section of the Logistics Department, there is a purchaser named Lu Jiangping. I suspect that he enriched himself during the purchasing process."
Li Weidong smiled and said: "I hope you can help me investigate the things he did."
"Lu Jiangping, a member of the Procurement Section of the Logistics Department, okay, don't worry, I'll do it right away!"
Fatty Yu agreed without saying a word.
I just don't have a clue how to operate it.
After all, he couldn't arrest Lu Jiangping now, interrogate him, and force him to confess the things he had done in the past.
Fatty Yu really had no choice but to go find his little brothers.
As the saying goes, three cobblers are as good as Zhuge Liang.
Although those little brothers are unreliable, they sometimes come up with good ideas.
Fatty Yu had completed the purchasing task today. There was no need to stay in the steel rolling mill. He rode his bicycle to a small courtyard on the outskirts of the city.
Since Fatty Yu decided to cut off his business in the pigeon market, he rented a yard and moved all the goods that were originally stored in Yu's home.
The yard is a standard small farmer's yard, consisting of a side room and a main house. The two side rooms are used as warehouses, and the main house is inhabited.
On weekdays, several of Fatty Yu's little brothers take turns on duty in the small courtyard.
Pengzi was on duty today, and he was a little surprised to see Fatty coming at this time.
"Second brother, what happened?"
"It's nothing, go and find Luanzi and Nanzi, who are still alive." Fatty Yu said with a smile.
After receiving the order, Pengzi got on his bicycle and ran out without saying a word.
Fatty Yu took advantage of this opportunity and walked around the small courtyard, nodding with satisfaction.
The small courtyard used to be dilapidated and overgrown with weeds, but now it has been cleaned up.
Opening the side room, the goods inside are neatly arranged according to their categories.
In order to prevent the ground from returning to moisture, a large pile of quicklime was piled in the corner of the house.
"These guys are pretty reliable."
After Fatty Yu decided to stay behind the scenes, his biggest worry was that these little brothers would not be able to support his business.
