Siheyuan: Start with a big car

"That's right, I'm very busy now and don't have time to see him!" Qin Jingru didn't refuse.

Li Weidong has been on a business trip recently, and all the work in the workshop has been handed over to her.

When Li Weidong was still around, Qin Jingru didn't think much of it. After all, all important matters were decided by Qin Jingru.

Now that Li Weidong is gone, Qin Jingru realized that she had so many things to worry about.

When the security officer heard this, he didn't say anything. He turned around and left the workshop. When he came to the door, he told Bang Geng: "Young man, they said they are very busy and don't have time to see you."

Bang Geng was furious when he heard this, and his face turned red.
If Qin Jingru hadn't come to my house that year, she wouldn't have had the chance to stay in Beijing. Now, when I asked her for help, she actually said she didn't have time!

However, he also knew that being angry would not solve the problem at all, and he could only suppress the anger in his heart.

His eyes rolled, and a plan came to his mind. He immediately put on a pitiful look and grabbed the security officer's arm.
"Comrade, comrade, please do me a favor and run one more errand for me!

My aunt really wasn't trying to shirk responsibility. It was my mother, Qin Huairu, who suddenly fell ill. She was so seriously ill that she couldn't even get out of bed.

My mother has been saying that she wants to see my aunt for the last time. I really have no choice but to come to you for help. Please do me a favor and tell my aunt. If she knew that my mother was so sick, she would definitely not ignore her. "

When the security officer heard this, he made a cigarette-holding gesture to Bang Geng.

Banggeng understood immediately that he wanted a cigarette, so he reached into his pocket and took out a cigarette and handed it over.

The security officer took it and saw that it was the Daqianmen, and showed a look of disgust.

In his opinion, although Daqianmen was not bad, considering the quality of the cigarettes he collected on a daily basis, this cigarette was indeed not presentable.

However, he changed his mind and realized that Qin Jingru was a workshop assistant and a well-known figure in the factory. If he offended her because of such a small matter, it would be difficult for him to do things in the future.

After weighing the pros and cons, he said to Bang Geng, "Okay, wait here, I'll go call you again."

The security officer walked into the workshop again, and Qin Jingru was busy

Seeing him coming over again, she couldn't help showing a hint of displeasure on her face. She stopped what she was doing, frowned, and asked, "Why are you here again? Didn't I say I didn't have time?"

The security officer smiled and explained quickly, "Assistant Qin, I'm really sorry to bother you. This is what happened. Your nephew said that your cousin, Qin Huairu, suddenly fell ill. She was so seriously ill that she couldn't get out of bed. She kept talking about wanting to see you for the last time.

Your nephew is crying so miserably outside, it's really pitiful to see, so I'm shamelessly coming to tell you again."

When Qin Jingru heard this, she stopped what she was doing.

There were indeed some conflicts between her and Qin Huairu.

But no matter what, Qin Huairu is her cousin, and blood is thicker than water.

When she heard the news that her cousin was seriously ill, her heart still skipped a beat.

She hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and handed the work on hand to Team Leader Zhou: "Team Leader Zhou, these tasks are very important, and there must be no mistakes. I have something urgent to go out for, thank you for your concern."

Team leader Zhou nodded in agreement.

After arranging the work, Qin Jingru hurried towards the entrance of the steel rolling mill.

When she reached the door, she saw Banggeng pacing back and forth there.

When Bang Geng saw Qin Jingru, his eyes lit up instantly and he called out affectionately, "Auntie, you're finally out!"

Qin Jingru frowned and asked anxiously, "Bang Geng, didn't you say your mother was seriously ill?
What's wrong with you?"

Bang Geng dodged a glance, scratched his head and said, "Aunt, my mom is fine. Actually, I came here today because I have something to discuss with you. I want to borrow some money from you."

When Qin Jingru heard this, she immediately understood that this guy was lying to her to get out.

Her expression suddenly turned cold, and her tone became stiff: "Bang Geng, how could you lie? I'm so busy at work, and you made up such a lie just to borrow money!"

Bang Geng seemed not to notice the change in Qin Jingru's expression, and continued to say shamelessly: "Aunt, I really have no other choice but to do this. Aunt, please be kind and lend me 600 yuan."

That’s right, Jia Zhang’s ransom was indeed only 550 yuan, but his running errands must have cost him 50 yuan, so 600 yuan was not wrong at all.

"Six hundred?" Qin Jingru's eyes widened in shock when she heard the number.
Even if her salary is high, this is equivalent to several months' salary.

She looked at Bang Geng in disbelief: "How dare you ask that? Do you know what six hundred yuan means? How dare you borrow so much money from me!"

Seeing Qin Jingru was angry, Banggeng told her all about Jia Zhang's kidnapping and the kidnappers' demand for 600 yuan in ransom: "Aunt, I'm not making this up. My grandmother was kidnapped and those people said they wouldn't let her go unless you paid 600 yuan. My mother and I really can't raise that much money, so we came to ask for your help.

Auntie, if you don't help us, my grandma will be in danger, and our family will be finished!"

Qin Jingru listened to Bang Geng's words and said coldly: "I don't have money. Even if I did, I wouldn't lend it to your family of vampires! Don't you know what you did?
Don't try to trick me in everything."

Banggeng originally still held out a glimmer of hope, but when he heard Qin Jingru's words, he immediately became angry and embarrassed.

"Qin Jingru, don't go too far! The reason why my grandma was kidnapped was because of you! If you had honestly married Chen Xing, how could so many things have happened?
Now that something has happened, you want to distance yourself from it, but it's not that easy!"

Qin Jingru was stunned by Banggeng's shameless remarks. She couldn't believe her ears.

She knew that it would be a waste of time to continue talking to Banggeng, so she turned around and prepared to leave.

When Banggeng saw Qin Jingru was about to leave, he rushed forward and blocked her way.

"Qin Jingru, if you don't lend me the money today, I will go to your factory and make trouble, expose all your affairs, and make sure you can't be the leader of this workshop! Then we'll see how you can stay in the factory!

Just at this time, Section Chief Li came over for inspection.

He saw from afar that the atmosphere here was not right. The two were confronting each other, so he quickly quickened his pace and walked closer. He looked back and forth between Bang Geng and Qin Jingru and asked, "Qin Jingru, what happened?"

Qin Jingru quickly stepped forward and said anxiously and aggrievedly, "Chief Li, this Bang Geng is just a little gangster who came to trouble me for no reason. Please drive him away and don't let him cause trouble here."

When Section Chief Li heard this, his face darkened instantly: "Did you hear that? Get out of here right now! Don't make trouble here and disrupt the order of the factory."

Bang Geng roared: "Who do you think you are? How dare you tell me to get out!"

After saying that, he swung his right fist and hit Section Chief Li in the face.

Seeing this, Section Chief Li calmly dodged Bang Geng's punch by moving sideways.

Then he raised his right foot and kicked Banggeng hard in the abdomen. With a "bang", Banggeng flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.

He rolled on the ground in pain, cursing and yelling, "Just wait, I'm not done with you!" After he finished yelling, Bang Geng remembered what happened to Chen Xing and knew that he would not gain anything if he continued to make trouble, so he turned around and ran away.

He ran all the way home and rushed into the house panting. Qin Huairu was pacing anxiously in the house. When she saw Banggeng coming back, her eyes lit up and she hurried over to him and asked anxiously, "Banggeng, how is it? Did you borrow the money?"

Bang Geng's face was full of anger, and he was breathing heavily. Hearing what Qin Huairu said, he spat fiercely and cursed: "Humph, that Qin Jingru is so heartless! I tried to persuade her, but not only did she not lend me the money, she also asked Section Chief Li from the factory to drive me away. Section Chief Li even kicked me! If it weren't for the fact that she is my aunt, I would have fought her to the death!"

Qin Huairu knew this would be the result, and sighed: "Forget it, since we can't borrow the money, there's nothing we can do. The other party just wants money, they shouldn't do anything to grandma, let's wait and see, maybe there will be a turnaround."

Bang Geng sat down on the stool and said, "Mom, it's all Qin Jingru's fault. If it weren't for her, grandma wouldn't have been kidnapped! Wait until grandma comes back safely, and then I'll show you how I'll deal with her!"

Qin Huairu waved her hands: "Forget it, forget it, I understand this matter. Chen Huadian hired someone to kidnap your grandma for money. Now that the money is not in hand, he will definitely not hurt your grandma."

Banggeng also knew this, and although he was unwilling to give up, he had no choice but to give up.

At this moment.

The Chenhua store has arrived at the dilapidated house.

He strode into the room, tilted his head, and asked Xiao Qiuzi with a sinister look in his eyes: "Xiao Qiuzi, did I ask you to do this? Have you already given the kidnapping letter to Qin Huairu?"

Xiao Qiuzi: "Don't worry, I've done it! I handed the letter to Qin Huairu personally, she must have received it."

Just yesterday, although Chen Huadian did not give him all the money, he had given him fifty yuan, which was enough for his mother to undergo the preparations before the operation.

Chen Huadian nodded with satisfaction, then walked into the inner room.

Jia Zhang was tied to a chair with a rag stuffed in her mouth. When she saw Chen Huadian coming in, fear appeared in her eyes.

Chen Huadian walked up to Jia Zhang, looked down at her, and suddenly raised his hand, "Snap! Snap!"

He slapped Jia Zhang several times in a row and cursed: "You old thing, you are so bold, aren't you? You actually dared to team up with your precious grandson to cheat me of my money! Why don't you ask around, is my Chenhua store easy to mess with? If you don't get the money today, I will make you pay for it!"

Jia Zhang's face was swollen from the beating. She could not make any sound and could only look at Chen Huadianji with eyes full of fear and pleading.

Chen Huadian looked at Jia Zhang's pitiful appearance, but he did not show any mercy.
Instead, he got even more angry and kicked the stool next to him, saying viciously, "Don't look at me like that. Hurry up and ask your daughter-in-law and grandson to gather the money and send it over. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble!"

Hearing this, Jia Zhang was so frightened that she almost fainted.

She knew Qin Huairu and Banggeng too well. Both of them had no ability and could not help her even if they wanted to.

Now there's trouble.

At this moment, an idea that had never occurred to her before suddenly came to her mind.

She actually hoped that Li Weidong would intervene in this matter.

...

Where is Li Weidong at this time?
He has arrived at the Magic City TV Factory.

Outside the train station, the sun was shining and people were coming and going.

Director Liu and Deputy Director Zhou of the Modu TV Factory were waiting at the exit early, eagerly waiting.

They have already learned about Li Weidong's situation from the Ministry of Machine Building.

Although he is only a workshop director and laboratory director, he is a very popular figure in the department and cannot be easily offended.

Finally, Li Weidong came out.

Director Liu and Deputy Director Zhou immediately came forward with warm smiles on their faces.

Director Liu stretched out his hands and held Li Weidong's hands tightly: "Director Li, welcome to our Magic City TV Factory for inspection. Thank you for your hard work along the way!"

Li Weidong smiled and nodded, saying, "Director Liu, Deputy Director Zhou, you are too polite. It's not hard."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they walked towards the GAZ jeep parked nearby.

The car started slowly and drove towards the TV factory. Along the way, Director Liu and Li Weidong talked and introduced the local conditions and some basic information of the TV factory.

When we arrived at the TV factory, Director Liu said enthusiastically, "Director Li, I have already arranged a restaurant to welcome you. Let's go and have a good meal."

Director Liu, there is no need to go to such trouble. Just keep it simple, a working meal will be fine. Let's focus more on our work."

Director Liu was slightly stunned, then he smiled and said, "Director Li is indeed a pragmatic person. OK, I'll let Deputy Director Zhou arrange it." Deputy Director Zhou nodded and turned around to arrange the meal.

After a while, the food was served, including three dishes and a soup.

After finishing his meal and taking a short rest, Li Weidong, accompanied by Director Liu, began to visit the TV factory.

They first came to the production workshop, where the roar of machines was endless and the workers were busy at their respective posts.

As they walked, Director Liu introduced: "Director Li, this is our production line. Currently, our production efficiency is still relatively leading in the industry."

Li Weidong stopped and told the purpose of his visit.
"Director Liu, I came here with an idea.

Our steel rolling mill is planning to build a color television production line, but it is still lacking in technology.

I understand that Chief Engineer Zhang and Chief Engineer Wang of your factory are experienced and skilled in this field. I would like to invite them to the steel rolling mill to assist us in building a color TV production line. "

When Director Liu heard this, his heart skipped a beat and the smile on his face froze instantly.

He was very reluctant in his heart. Although these two chief engineers were not in front-line positions in the factory because they had made mistakes.

But they are from the Magic City TV Factory after all, how can they lend it out so easily?

But Li Weidong had a special identity and was sent by a higher-level unit, so he had no way of refusing directly. For a moment, he was caught in a dilemma.

At this time, Deputy Director Zhou noticed Director Liu's embarrassment and quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Director Li, we understand your thoughts. Chief Engineer Zhang and Chief Engineer Wang are indeed the technical masters of the factory. But you see, both of their families are here, and their parents, wives and children need to be taken care of.

If I go to the steel mill, I will have to travel back and forth, and I will not be able to take care of my family matters. It is really inconvenient. Can you...consider other candidates?"

If Li Weidong didn't know the situation of Chief Engineer Zhang and Chief Engineer Wang, he would have been fooled by Deputy Director Zhou.
