Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Chapter 216 Discovering clues

Liu Daqing was a little suspicious, but didn't think much about it.

After all, there are quite a few people who come directly to the factory to buy bread on weekdays, so it is quite common.

"How much do you want to buy?"

"One box."

Wang Qiang was smiling and looking at Liu Daqing, while Liu Daqing was also looking at him. They didn't know each other.

"If you want to buy bread, go to that room." Liu Daqing pointed to a small house next to the gate.

"Oh, okay. It's my first time here and I went to the wrong place."

Under Liu Daqing's gaze, Wang Qiang walked into the room. There was a woman sleeping on the table, with a lot of bread boxes piled around her.

"Hello, I want to buy some bread."

Not long after, Wang Qiang walked out of the hut holding a box of bread.

Wang Qiang had noticed that the Wheatfield Bakery was practically half-shut down. While there were quite a few employees in the workshop, they were mostly gathered together chatting. The bread saleswoman was even sleeping—a surprisingly casual attitude.

If it is true as the salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative said, that it was because their own Chunfeng bread had taken over the market and thus affected the sales of Wheat Field bread, then the other party would have every reason to do such a thing.

Wang Qiang was about to leave here.

Several tricycles came towards us, and when they entered the yard, someone jumped off one of them.

He shouted to Liu Daqing who was standing in front of the main door:

"Today, only three supply and marketing cooperatives needed to restock, and each one was just one box. Five of them returned moldy goods, and three truckloads of goods were taken out and three truckloads back. Isn't this nonsense? Factory Director, didn't Xie Yuan say he could drive out that Chunfeng Bread guy? You have to keep an eye on him on this matter."

The person who made the call was none other than Li Yin, who was in charge of sales.

And this shout happened to be heard clearly by Wang Qiang who was standing next to him.

Hearing that the goods that had been pulled out were pulled back, Liu Daqing became quite angry and more and more irritated.

"I haven't seen him today. How do you want me to keep an eye on him?" Liu Daqing shouted unhappily.

Li Yin walked up to Liu Daqing and said with a distressed look on his face, "We have to think of a way. We can't just sit there and wait for him. What if he can't do it? What will happen to our factory? He won't have to starve, but what about us?"

Xie Yuan's uncle is the director of the street office, so Xie Yuan has a way out no matter what. But these people are different from the workers in the factory.

If this factory fails, they will lose their jobs.

Liu Daqing understood the meaning of Li Yin's words.

Although he was the factory director, Xie Yuan never took him seriously, and he couldn't persuade Xie Yuan, so he used Feng Kui, who was a straightforward person, to stand up against Xie Yuan again and again in order to check and balance Xie Yuan.

"When he comes, I'll go ask him." Liu Daqing said lightly, turned around and went back to the room.

Li Yin seemed to be accustomed to Liu Daqing's way of doing things. He curled his lips and shook his head, directing the workers to move the bread that had not been delivered back to the warehouse.

Wang Qiang held a box of bread, turned around and walked outside, and soon left the bakery.

Now Wang Qiang can almost conclude that the person who wrote on the door of his warehouse must be the man named Xie Yuan!

After walking more than a hundred meters, Wang Qiang returned to the tricycle and casually threw the box of bread onto the car.

"Let's go back."

Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

Only then did Xie Yuan stagger to the factory.

As soon as he entered the main room, Liu Daqing called him into the factory director's office.

"I said you didn't show up this morning and only came to work after 2 o'clock. Do you know that everyone is very dissatisfied with you now?" Liu Daqing closed the door and said to Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan, who was originally in a good mood, suddenly became anxious after hearing this.

"Who has an objection? Old Liu, I'm not trying to be harsh, but only those who are just idling away their time would come and leave on time every day! Do you think that if I don't come to the factory, I'm not working? Who has seen how much I've done to save our factory?"

"Stop doing nothing but fighting amongst yourselves. If anyone has any complaints, tell them to come and talk to me face to face. Why are you always gossiping behind my back?"

Xie Yuan's words made Liu Daqing feel a little embarrassed. Coming and leaving on time meant he was also being scolded.

"Calm down, everyone's anxious right now. Li Yin went to deliver goods today, but he pulled three trucks out and brought back three more. More moldy returns than restocks were in stock. How could anyone not be anxious?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Yuan said angrily, "It's Li Yin again. He doesn't understand the sales he's responsible for, and all he does is gossip about others behind their backs. He's so annoying! I'm going to find him now!"

After saying that, Xie Yuan was about to get up to look for Li Yin, but Liu Daqing pushed him back into his chair.

"What are you doing? If you go to him, you'll be trapping me. Besides, Li Yin didn't say anything. He just wanted to ask you, you said you would drive out those people from Chunfeng Bakery within 5 days, what exactly do you plan to do?" Liu Daqing held Xie Yuan down, comforting him while turning the topic back to how to drive out Chunfeng Bakery.

"I'm already doing it. We agreed on five days. You just wait and see the result. I, Xie Yuan, will definitely do what I say. I'm not like those cowards who can only bark like dogs!" Xie Yuan did not reveal what he had done last night.

"As long as you are confident, the survival of the factory now depends entirely on you."

Liu Daqing wanted to pour water for Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan waved his hand: "Don't bother, I'm not thirsty. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I still have a lot of work to do."

Xie Yuan stood up and quickly left the office, leaving Liu Daqing holding the thermos in one hand and about to pour water.

After Xie Yuan left, Liu Daqing's face became darker and darker.

Xie Yuan cursed and swore, especially when he passed by Li Yin's door, he shouted: "Gossiping behind people's backs, what nonsense!"

After leaving, Xie Yuan came to Chunfeng Bread’s warehouse alone.

Pretend to be a passerby and walk past the warehouse door.

The words he wrote on the door last night were gone, covered by the new paint. Two big "Fu" characters were added to the door, and even the paint and dog blood they splashed on the wall were scraped off.

Xie Yuan turned his head and took advantage of the brief moment as he passed by the door to look inside.

There were only figures moving around in the warehouse, and it looked quiet and peaceful, without any panic at all.

"Fuck! If you don't accept my toast, you will have to drink a penalty drink. Warnings won't work. You are forcing me to do something ruthless!" Xie Yuan gritted his teeth and grinned, looking vicious.

At this time, Wang Qiang was sitting in the warehouse, thinking about how to find Xie Yuan to avenge the threat on the door.

However, he didn't know that Xie Yuan, whom he was thinking about, was walking past the outer gate at this moment.
