Du Fei saw Chu Cheng standing on the street from a distance, holding a large iron ring full of keys in his hand.
"This way~"
When Chu Cheng saw them coming, he didn't wait for a few people to stop his bicycle, waved his hand and walked towards the back of the grain station, arriving outside the gate of a large courtyard.
Chu Cheng went over to negotiate with the guard, and then brought Du Fei and others through the gate.
There is a large open space in the yard, and on the right is a huge warehouse that is three stories high.
That is a grain storage warehouse, which is under the jurisdiction of the Grain Management Office. No one is allowed to enter without a warrant from a superior.
On the left hand side, which is behind the building where the grain station is located, there are two sundries warehouses, which are the warehouses of the grain station.
Chu Cheng went up to get the key and opened the door.
Accompanied by a "clattering" sound, a large lock as big as a palm popped open with a click.
The hired cart driver stayed outside, while the others went inside.
The warehouse is not large, but there are so many things piled in it! There are many kinds of things, and there are some really good things. I even saw a new sewing machine in the corner!
The glass and other building materials that Du Fei wanted were piled haphazardly in the corner of the warehouse.
The glass is sealed in crates, there are dozens of unopened bags of cement, a pile of wooden cubes as thick as an arm, and various hardware...
Du Fei and Chu Cheng were both watching the fun, but Lei Laoliu was a professional. He knew what was useful with a quick glance, and quickly ordered the workers he brought to move it to the pallet.
Those things were covered in dust, and they were all covered in dust when touched.
Du Fei and Chu Cheng didn't even say anything, they just watched from the side.
Du Fei took out the big front door and handed it to Chu Cheng, and asked in a low voice: "What did you tell your director just now? How do you calculate these things?"
Chu Cheng curled his lips and said, "Let's just say that, I can take whatever I need, and I can give him money anyway."
Du Fei had a serious expression on his face: "Old Chu, if I'm not wrong, when you tell your director, he will pat his chest and agree, letting you use it as you please?"
Chu Cheng nodded, not surprised that Du Fei could guess the situation at that time.
Du Fei added: "Your director knows your family background, and he really wants you to work with him because you owe him a favor."
Chu Cheng nodded, he knew this very well, and just now he dared to take over Du Fei's affairs.
Du Fei said: "It's OK to owe him a favor, but we can't let him think that he has helped us a lot. If something happens to him in the future, he will use this to find your parents... Then, you will be caught in the middle
It’s uncomfortable in the middle.”
Chu Cheng was stunned. He didn't expect it to be so profound, but after Du Fei reminded him, he realized it and asked: "Then what do you think we should do?"
Du Fei said: "Actually, to put it bluntly, we just want to save some money and don't want to go to the black market and get ripped off..."
Just at this moment, Lei Laoliu was almost done moving the things. He came over with a list: "Boss Du, look at these things that were just moved from this house. Let me do a rough calculation. If the price is equal to
Let’s go, the total is ninety-seven dollars and fifty cents.”
Du Fei took the list and glanced at it, nodded to him and said, "Okay, you go back and keep the accounts."
"Okay, I'll go back first." Lei Laoliu took the order back, smiled and nodded to Chu Cheng, and asked the other worker to leave with the cart master.
Du Fei and Chu Cheng locked the warehouse and walked out.
Du Fei picked up what he had just said: "Old Chu, you heard it too. These things cost about a hundred yuan. If I didn't find you and bought them on the black market, I would probably double them at least, which is two hundred yuan. The two of us.
If you don’t care about these things in your relationship, it’s like you asked for a favor of 200 yuan from your director. I should be right to say that, right?”
Chu Cheng blinked his eyes and nodded slowly.
Du Fei paused and then said: "When you first started working, your salary must have been level 30, which is twenty-three yuan a month. It's obvious that you can't pay the debt of two hundred yuan based on your own abilities.
"
Chu Cheng swallowed and spat subconsciously. He just went to see the director of the grain station and didn't take this seriously at all.
Who would have thought that after being analyzed by Du Fei's little mouth, he owed a favor debt of two hundred yuan!
The word 'fuck me' is not enough to describe his current mood.
Du Fei said calmly: "So, we have to discount this debt of gratitude, and we brothers can't keep the benefits for ourselves. If you do this, go to your director's house tonight and give him eighty yuan. Remember.
Come on, don’t give money directly, buy something and take it away. I can’t repay the favor of 200 yuan, so 20 yuan is no problem, right? If you owe the boss some small favors at work, sometimes it’s not a bad thing.”
Chu Cheng hadn't turned around yet: "How come it's twenty? Even if we give him eighty, we still get one hundred and two. If two and one are matched, it's still forty!"
Du Fei rolled his eyes, but he didn't expect this guy to start a math problem: "Two hundred yuan is the black market price, which is not fixed. According to the normal price, those things are worth a hundred yuan. He takes eighty, and we
twenty."
Du Fei didn't want to talk to him, so he hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter whether it's twenty or forty, the important thing is to send it to your director. I guess this matter is not a secret in your grain station, everyone has already tacitly understood it.
Yes, you said that someone just said hello and just took the things back. How do you know they didn’t sneak into the director’s house at night?”
Du Fei's words made Chu Cheng feel enlightened.
Although he had been exposed to it at home since he was a child, both his father and his mother taught him by words and deeds, and would never break it into pieces and tell him about it like Du Fei did.
At this time, the two of them had almost reached the entrance of the alley and turned around to return to the grain station.
Du Fei looked around and saw that there was no one around, put his hand into his pants pocket, took out a small wad of dough from his pocket and stuffed it into Chu Cheng: "I'll give you the money, I don't care what you buy."
Chu Cheng knew that the money was useful and did not refuse, but he realized something was wrong as soon as he took it.
The thickness was obviously not eighty, and I couldn't help but look at Du Fei in surprise.
Du Fei chuckled: "A hundred and thirty in total, I'll lend you the extra fifty." Then he looked at the supply and marketing cooperative across the street: "If you really want to chase that girl, don't go to Soso and go directly.
I won’t believe that I can’t make a date if Lao Mo gives me a hard time.”
Chu Cheng was a little dazed. Even though he was a high-ranking official, he had very little money. He only had twenty-three yuan a month. He couldn't even save two or three yuan for food and clothing.
I don’t have any savings, and I’m too embarrassed to ask my parents for help, so I can’t afford to take photos of my mother-in-law outside.
Therefore, Du Fei suddenly gave him fifty yuan. Although it was not shocking, it was quite touching. I couldn't explain how he felt.
Du Fei didn't wait for him to speak again, gave him an expression that every man would understand, turned over, got on his bicycle, and ran away in a flash.
After leaving Sanliang Station, Du Fei did not go back to the street office. Instead, he went directly to the canteen to return his lunch box. He also went to the Red Star Hotel and got a letter of introduction to get a single room before going to the courtyard to have a look.
At this time, Lei Laoliu led people to move the returned items to the backyard, put them together with the furniture, and temporarily covered them with canvas.
