Qiao Liang and the other three were pushed into the factory by several security guards. Behind them, Cai Jin proudly walked into the office with a cigarette in his mouth, preparing to call his father to claim credit.
Xu Chan saw the seven or eight security guards surrounding them aggressively. As a woman, she was obviously a little scared. However, Qiao Liang was unwilling to reveal his identity, and Xu Chan did not dare to go against Qiao Liang's wishes. She could only whisper. He said to Qiao Liang: "If you don't tell me your identity, I'm afraid they will make trouble."
"Don't worry, I'm afraid they won't come around." Qiao Liang sneered, "I want to see how courageous they are. I have never heard that the folk customs in Songbei are so fierce before. After coming here, I am really impressed. Eye-opening.”
"This is just the factory's unauthorized action and cannot represent Songbei County." Xu Chan said quickly.
Qiao Liang smiled faintly when he heard this, neither refuting nor agreeing. He thought about being chased and beaten by the gang of gangsters at the county hospital construction site last night, as well as some remarks he heard from ordinary people in Songbei about the night market food stalls. , obviously, the public security in Songbei is not much better.
"By the way, I will confiscate their mobile phones as well." Cai Jin suddenly thought of this and shouted quickly.
"Go away, don't touch me." Xu Chan scolded when she saw a security guard reaching out to grab her cell phone.
"Give it to them, it's okay." Qiao Liang said calmly.
"This..." Xu Chan was obviously reluctant.
"It's okay, give it to them." Qiao Liang said again.
Hearing what Qiao Liang said, Xu Chan reluctantly handed over her mobile phone to the other party. The mobile phones of Qiao Liang and the driver Xiao Liu were also confiscated.
The three people were taken to the factory's storage room and locked up. With a 'click' sound, the large iron door of the storage room was closed, and only three people were left in the room.
Xu Chan was a little scared and said to Qiao Liang: "County Magistrate Qiao, why didn't you tell us your identity just now? What if we were locked up by them for several days and nights and starved to death?"
"No." Qiao Liang smiled, "In such a big factory, there are always people there just by shouting, how can we starve to death?"
"But I'm afraid they intend to starve us to death." Xu Chan said anxiously.
"Then they are really bold." Qiao Liang chuckled, "Don't worry, if we disappear for a day, the people in the county will be anxious, and we will find them here soon. Our car is still there It’s outside the factory.”
"That's right." Xu Chan patted her forehead. She had actually forgotten this. As long as the car was located, it would not be difficult for people in the county to find them.
"County Magistrate Qiao, you just thought of this, so you're not worried, right?" Xu Chan asked again.
Qiao Liang smiled: "This is just one aspect. On the other hand, I bet they don't dare to do anything to us. Didn't you hear what they just said? They obviously regard us as reporters, which will put us in danger." He just wanted to teach us a lesson, I forgive them for not really doing anything."
"But even so, there's no need for us to come in and suffer like this." Xu Chan sighed, "Look at this place, it's dirty and smelly."
"If we come in, we can declare them illegally detained, do you understand?" Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"Oh..." Xu Chan looked at Qiao Liang and suddenly realized, "County Magistrate Qiao, it turns out you want to convict them?"
Qiao Liang smiled and said nothing. His real starting point was not this. He just wanted to see who was behind this plastic factory and who gave this plastic factory such courage to commit crimes so blatantly. , of course, now that they are being detained, they will have to settle accounts in the future, and they will be charged with illegal detention.
"I'm used to having my phone with me, and it's always with me. Now that I suddenly don't have my phone, I feel like I'm isolated from the world. I'm so used to it," Xu Chan added.
"Just bear with it for a while. I guess we won't be able to stay here for long. The worst outcome is to stay all night." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"Isn't one night long enough? I can't stay for even a quarter of an hour." Xu Chan said with a flat mouth.
Qiao Liang smiled when he heard this.
While the three of them were talking, Cai Jin called his father in the office. His father was not at the factory that night and went home.
When the call was connected, Cai Jin said excitedly: "Dad, how many people do you think I just arrested?"
"Who did you catch? Tell me clearly and don't give me riddles." Cai Jinfa said impatiently.
"Dad, reporters." Cai Jin grinned, "You're really right. You were telling me to be on guard against reporters in the afternoon, and a reporter actually came in the evening, and I caught him in the act."
"Reporter?" Cai Jinfa was stunned and asked with wide eyes, "You arrested the reporter?"
"Yes, I detained them and now they are locked in the storage room." Cai Jin said with a smile.
"You bastard, who asked you to arrest the reporter? You are just acting randomly and without using your brain. You just know how to cause trouble for me." Cai Jinjin was so angry that he almost vomited blood and said, "I will rush over right away, you go first
Let me go, don't cause any trouble for me, wait until I arrive."
After Cai Jinfa finished speaking, he hung up the phone. On the other end of the phone, Cai Jin was lost in thought with his cell phone. He wanted to take credit from his father, but he actually got scolded.
Putting away the phone with some boredom, Cai Jin thought that his father underestimated him. He detained the reporter. He had no brains. He also had his own ideas.
Picking up the landline phone on the table, Cai Jin called the factory security captain and said, "Old Wang, go and release the three reporters and take them to the VIP room in the factory."
"Mr. Cai, are you going to let me go now?" the security captain asked.
"Just do what you are told, why are you talking so much nonsense?" Cai Jin said angrily, "Remember, we are taking them to the VIP room, you can't let them leave, do you understand?"
The security captain agreed.
After Cai Jin made the call, he waited for his father to come over.
In the storage room, when Qiao Liang and the others were brought out by the security guards, Xu Chan still couldn't believe it, and said blankly: "Are you letting us go so soon?"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Qiao Liang said with a smile, "This direction doesn't seem to be the direction we just came in from the gate."
Xu Chan heard this and said to the security guard next to him: "Hey, where are you taking us?"
"Our boss, Mr. Cai, has spoken and will take you to the VIP room." A security guard replied.
"Mr. Xiao Cai?" Qiao Liang's eyes flashed when he heard what the other party said, and he asked tentatively, "Is Mr. Xiao Cai the boss of your factory?"
"He's our boss's son." The security guard replied.
Qiao Liang nodded after hearing this and said nothing more.
The three of them were taken to the VIP room. At this time, Cai Jinjin rushed to the factory and arrived at the office. Cai Jinfa glared at his son when he entered the door: "Where are those reporters?"
"Dad, I asked the security to take them to the VIP room." Cai Jin laughed and said, "Dad, don't worry, I didn't plan to do anything to them. I just wanted to scare them first and then give them some benefits.
As you usually teach me, I have a carrot in one hand and a stick in the other. I will serve them with the stick first, and then give them some benefits later, so I can definitely defeat them."
"Get over it, I think you are out of your mind. Can you detain reporters at will? They are the uncrowned king, understand? Just drive them away. Who asked you to detain them?" Cai Jinfa scolded. Holding his son in his arms, he walked towards the VIP room.
"Dad, please slow down, take this with you." Cai Jin caught up from behind, holding several bulging red envelopes in his hand.
When Cai Jinfa saw this, his expression softened slightly, he took the red envelope, weighed it with his hands, and asked, "How much does one contain?"
"Ten thousand." Cai Jin said. Seeing the satisfied look on his father's face, Cai Jin smiled playfully again, "Dad, I'm not lying to you. I have already prepared benefits for those reporters. How can I really do this?" How are they?"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and use your brain more when doing things in the future." Cai Jinfa snorted and didn't look good on his son. He knew that this kid could open a dyeing workshop with just a few winks.
When Cai Jinjin scolded his son, Xu Chan also whispered to Qiao Liang in the VIP room: "County Chief Qiao, what do you mean by them? They locked us in the storage room and invited us in again. Come to the VIP room."
"Maybe their conscience has discovered it." Qiao Liang chuckled.
People ask you if you are serious." Xu Chan said.
Qiao Liang smiled: "It doesn't matter what kind of medicine they sell in the gourd, we will find out later."
As soon as Qiao Liang finished speaking, the door of the VIP room was pushed open from the outside, and Cai Jinfa strode in with a bright smile on his face: "Oh, a few journalist friends, it was a misunderstanding just now, which made several journalist friends feel wronged. Yes, it is really a sin, I will make amends to you."
Cai Jinfa said, winking at his son and saying, "Xiao Jin, you still haven't apologized to these reporter friends."
"Guys, I'm sorry. There was really a misunderstanding just now. I want to apologize to you." Cai Jin came over and said cooperatively, and then returned the mobile phones of Qiao Liang and the others to them.
Qiao Liang put away the phone and smiled: "It doesn't seem to be a misunderstanding just now. I remember that you asked the security guards to detain us as soon as you saw us. It doesn't look like a misunderstanding at all."
"Misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding. Didn't I drink a little and saw it wrong?" Cai Jin said with a smile.
At this time, Cai Jinjin stepped forward, took out the three red envelopes that his son had just prepared from his pocket, put them on the table, and said: "Friends from journalists, this is a little bit of our thoughts. It can be regarded as a favor to these friends from journalists." I’m shocked, I hope some of you will accept it.”
"What is this?" Qiao Liang frowned.
"You'll know after you open it and take a look." Cai Jin said with a smile. Ten thousand yuan was contained in a red bag. This was a big deal. He couldn't believe that a few young reporters were not tempted. Everyone in the world doesn't love money.
Cai Jin confidently waited to see how happy and excited Qiao Liang and the others were after seeing Qian. Cai Jin looked at Qiao Liang and felt something was wrong. He felt like he had seen Qiao Liang somewhere. Looking at Qiao Liang, he felt that something was wrong. Liang's face looked a little familiar.
