In Liu Zhenshan's opinion, fifty yuan is equivalent to one month's salary of a waiter at Jichun Hotel, which is already a lot.
Moreover, he also waived the accommodation fee at Jichun Hotel, which is something that can no longer be measured in money.
You must know that Jichun Hotel is the top-notch hotel in Jichun. You can stay at it for free, and if you tell it, it is enough to make others look up to you.
The two conditions he proposed gave Li Donglai enough face to dispel his anger and issue a letter of understanding to Liu Datou.
After Li Donglai heard this, he did not answer immediately. Instead, he took a deep look at Liu Zhenshan, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea.
The reason why Liu Zhenshan made the conditions directly was that he must have had connections at the police station and received guidance from that person.
Moreover, Liu Zhenshan is still confident to convince Zheng Juan.
It seems that Liu Zhenshan has some influence in Jichun City.
If he had met someone else and he had nothing to lose, he might have taken advantage of the situation and agreed to get closer to Liu Zhenshan. Many friends would lead to many paths.
It's a pity that Li Donglai likes to level things the most. When he sees the potholes dug on the road, he always wants to level them. If the shovel can't level them, then he drives the bulldozer to level them, and then builds on top of them.
After being crushed dozens of times, the ground must be flattened.
In this way, people who come later will not stumble when they walk on this path.
Seeing Li Donglai sipping tea without saying a word, Liu Zhenshan became a little anxious. He stood up and said loudly: "Director Li, I know you are from the capital and have a distinguished status, but don't forget that this is Jichun. If you annoy me, if you
If something happens, it won’t look good.”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Zhang Long and Zhao Hu put their hands on their waists and stared at Liu Zhenshan. If he dared to take action, they would take him down.
Faced with Liu Zhenshan's threat, Li Donglai smiled instead of getting angry: "Manager Liu Zhenshan, Liu Datou threatened Zheng Juan and dared to commit murder in public in the hotel. This kind of person is suitable to stay in the fence. If you know better, you can do it now
You should go back and help Liu Datou prepare his luggage and bedding. The weather here in Jichun is too cold and the fence is like an ice cave, so Liu Datou will not freeze to death in it!"
"You...!" Liu Zhenshan didn't expect that Li Donglai would not only show no respect at all, but would instead rub salt into the wound.
He realized that calm discussion was no longer enough to resolve the matter.
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude."
Liu Zhenshan said a harsh word, turned around and left the room.
Looking at his back, Zhang Long narrowed his eyes and whispered: "Director Li, do you want me to investigate this guy's situation?"
"Do you still have a relationship here?" Li Donglai said in surprise.
Zhang Long nodded: "Of course, I have several old comrades here. According to my current status, it is not suitable to ask them for help, but investigating some situations is not considered a violation."
"Then I'll help you." Li Donglai is not the kind of pedantic person.
Others may attack you in the next second, but if you still follow the rules here, you are a fool.
At this time, Li Xiaomei was also dressed neatly and came out of the back room.
"Brother, why was that person so unreasonable just now? His brother obviously did something wrong, but he still blamed others."
Li Donglai stood up and poured a glass of boiling water for her, handed it over and said with a smile: "There are all kinds of people in this world. Some people always bully the weak. When you meet such people, don't be polite to them."
"Are you ready to deal with that person just now? Great, I am worried when I think of Sister Zheng Juan working under him." Li Xiaomei said with eyes wide open.
Although she only met Zheng Juan once, Li Xiaomei already liked this big sister.
"I can't say how to deal with it, but people like this will always seek their own death."
Li Xiaomei was still relatively young, and Li Donglai didn't want her to know these messy things. He said with a smile: "Zheng Juan said yesterday that she wanted to go out with us. She should be here soon. Let's go down and have breakfast first."
"Okay, okay, I'm hungry after a good sleep." Li Xiaomei suddenly became energetic when she mentioned eating, and said while rubbing her belly.
Since it was early in the morning, neither Li Donglai nor Li Xiaomei liked eating greasy food, so they ate some glutinous rice rolls on the roadside.
Glutinous rice rolls can also be regarded as a traditional snack in Jichun. They taste smooth and tender, and are very filling. If you eat two or three of them, you won’t feel tired all morning.
Just after dinner, we returned to Jichun Hotel. Before we could go upstairs, Zheng Juan came.
"Brother Donglai, I originally wanted to treat you to breakfast." Seeing that Li Donglai had already eaten breakfast in advance, Zheng Juan looked a little disappointed.
Li Donglai chuckled and said, "My little sister was hungry just now, so I took her down to eat."
He looked at Zheng Juan's canvas bag and said with a smile: "What are we going to do today? You have prepared so many things."
The canvas bag was bulging and looked like it contained a lot of things.
Zheng Juan opened the bag and found some dry food inside: "The most beautiful place in Jichun is Jingyue Lake, but the road there is far away and there are no places to eat around, so I asked my mother to make some dry food.
Take it with you to eat on the road.”
"Picnic, we are going to have a picnic!" Li Xiaomei's eyes widened with excitement when she heard this.
When the brothers and sisters were young, they often went to the wild to catch small animals and roast them to eat. Although that time was difficult, it was very memorable.
After arriving in the capital, Li Xiaomei also wanted Li Donglai to take her for a picnic, but Li Donglai was busy with work every day and had no time at all.
Moreover, there are no beautiful natural parks around Beijing.
Li Donglai didn't expect that Zheng Juan would want to go out to a suburban park to play, but after thinking about it carefully, it made sense.
Jingyue Lake was already built as a park before liberation. It is known as "Asia's largest artificial forest sea" and "Pearl of the Green Sea". It can be said to be the most famous scenic spot in Jichun.
only....
Li Dong came to look at the falling snowflakes in the sky. He just wanted to say one thing: People in Jichun are not afraid of the cold anymore?
....
The other side.
"Asshole! Damn you bastard! You don't even give me any face."
"Do you really think that just because you are a junior director in the capital, you can be tyrannical in Jichun?"
Jichun Hotel, in the manager's office.
Liu Zhenshan, who was rejected by Li Donglai, picked up the teacup on the table and threw it to the ground. The teacup collided with the hard floor tiles, and the floor tiles won the final victory.
The tea cup was smashed to pieces, and the tea and debris flowed all over the floor.
Looking at the debris on the ground, Liu Zhenshan suddenly frowned and murmured in a low voice: "This person seems to have some foundation. He doesn't look like a small director. Am I a little bit arrogant..."
Before liberation, Liu Zhenshan had done many bad things with his father. The reason why he was able to successfully hide them later was because he was careful enough.
Liu Zhenshan frowned and thought for a moment, staring blankly at the phone for a long time.
Finally he made up his mind, gently picked up the phone, shook it for a while, and said to the operator on the other side of the phone: "Please pick up Director Zhou from the breeding farm for me."
There is a large breeding farm outside the city of Jichun. The people in Jichun all know that the milk there is very fresh. Every afternoon, workers at the breeding farm ride on donkeys backwards to deliver milk to customers.
However, people like Liu Zhenshan knew that there was one person in the breeding farm who was the most well-informed in Quan Jichun, and that was Director Zhou, who was in charge of the milking workshop.
Director Zhou is nearly sixty years old. He is an old man who came from before liberation. It used to be said that he was the son of a rich man named Zhou in the suburbs of Jichun.
The wealthy Zhou Dynasty was a great figure before liberation. He owned thousands of acres of fertile land, hundreds of servants, and dozens of guns.
After liberation, rich man Zhou died in the war, but Director Zhou escaped. With the treasures he had hidden back then, he changed his identity, made friends in Jichun City, and contacted many of his old friends.
, with the support of those people behind him, Director Zhou not only became the director of the milking workshop of Jichun Breeding Factory, but also established a huge information network.
If anyone wants to inquire about something, as long as they find him, he can help you find out about it, no matter how confidential it is.
but.
The cost is also high, at least thirty yuan each time, and it can increase upwards depending on the confidentiality of the information.
If Zhang Long and Zhao Hu hadn't scared Director Zhou around Li Donglai, he would have been reluctant to spend the money to investigate Li Donglai.
After the call was transferred, Director Zhou's vicissitudes of voice came: "Hello, who is this?"
"I am the manager of Jichun Hotel, Liu Zhenshan." Before talking to others, Liu Zhenshan always likes to introduce himself as the manager of Jichun Hotel.
The person on the other side paused for a moment, as if he was wondering who Liu Zhenshan was. This pause made Liu Zhenshan feel dissatisfied.
He is the general manager of Jichun Hotel, and he once helped Director Zhou entertain guests. How could Director Zhou forget him?
Fortunately, this pause did not last long. A voice of sudden realization came from the phone receiver: "It turns out to be Zhenshan. Thank you for what happened last time. My two friends from the border are very grateful to you for what happened last time."
The reception is very satisfactory, let me express their gratitude to you on their behalf."
Hearing this, Liu Zhenshan quickly smiled and said: "This is what I should do. With Director Zhou coming forward, no matter how tight the guest room in the Jichun Hotel is, I have to keep it for you."
Director Zhou seemed to be quite busy. After chatting for a while, he asked directly: "Zhenshan, you called me today. Are you planning to order milk?"
"Of course you have to order milk. It's a good thing and can supplement nutrition. But I still have something to trouble you with."
"We have been old friends for many years, so just tell us."
"The thing is like this, a guest from Beijing came to our Jichun Hotel. According to the registered information, he is the director of the factory in Beijing, named Li Donglai. I always feel that this person is a bit strange, and I would like to ask you to help check it out.
check."
"Li Donglai... People from the capital, all right, please wait for my news."
The person on the other end hung up the phone without saying anything else.
Liu Zhenshan put off the morning meeting and stayed by the phone.
He knew that Director Zhou was a very fast person, so he would probably be able to find out the information soon.
really.
Half an hour later, the phone rang.
Director Zhou's voice came from the opposite side: "Zhenshan, although we are old friends, the rules cannot be broken. This time I still have to charge you thirty yuan for information."
Liu Zhenshan was relieved when he heard that it was only thirty yuan, because according to Director Zhou's habit, the higher the other party's identity and the higher the information confidentiality level, the higher the information fee charged.
Thirty yuan is almost the bottom line. That Li Donglai should be a small director.
"Okay, thirty yuan is just thirty yuan. When I go to order milk in two days, I will bring it back to you."
"read"
Director Zhou had dealt with Liu Zhenshan several times and knew his background. Without saying anything else, he introduced Li Donglai's situation.
Of course, all of this was made up by Zhang Long and others.
"That guy is the workshop director of the steel rolling mill workshop in Beijing. He comes from the countryside. He became the director just through bad luck. He has no foundation. However, he is from Beijing after all. I advise you to take it easy when you do it.
Please, don’t break people.”
"Don't worry. I, Liu Zhenshan, have been traveling around the world for so many years and I know what's appropriate."
The person on the other end didn't say anything more and hung up the phone. After all, for Director Zhou, he was just a person who investigated the news. Even if Liu Zhenshan revealed the truth, it had nothing to do with him.
After putting down the phone, Liu Zhenshan stood up and said with a ferocious smile: "How dare you, Li Donglai, to play tricks on me like a fox pretending to be a tiger but I won't fix you properly!"
After confirming that Li Donglai had no foundation, Liu Zhenshan left the office and rode his bicycle to the lumber factory next to the photonic film.
The temporary workers in the lumber factory were hiding in the dilapidated warehouse and were lazing around. When they heard the sound of bicycles, they stood up one after another and pretended to love working.
When they saw it was Liu Zhenshan, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Liu Datou's brother is here."
"Now Liu Datou is saved."
....
Many of these people were those who dined with Liu Datou in the restaurant that night.
The tall and thin man among them was the one who reported the news to Liu Zhenshan. Because he was thin and had dark skin, he looked like a hairless monkey, so he was called the thin monkey.
The thin monkey put down the wooden stick, bent over and walked over, licking his face and smiling at Liu Zhenshan: "Brother Zhenshan, you are here, we have to rescue the big head brother quickly."
Snapped!
Before he finished speaking, he was slapped hard on the face. Liu Zhenshan's eyes widened and he said: "Skinny monkey, I have told you before that my brother does things without any sense of proportion. I asked you to watch from the side.
Is this how you see it? In front of so many people in a hotel, you stopped a young girl and tried to take her away. Do you think this is still before liberation?"
"Brother, there's nothing we can do. It's not like you don't know Brother Big Tou's temperament. How can we people persuade him?" Shouhou covered his face, looking a little aggrieved.
If it weren't for them, they would have to point Liu Datou to lead them to get pocket money. They really wouldn't want to care about Liu Datou's affairs.
Liu Zhenshan also knew Liu Datou's temperament, and since they would need help from these guys later, he did not continue to pursue the case.
