When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1216

Hu, the brigade leader, calmed down and looked at Liu Shuan with a leisurely air: "How much do you know about Liu Gang's parents-in-law?"

"I don't know. I've only met them a few times. After all, we're cousins. How could we see his father-in-law and mother-in-law so often?" Liu Shuan asked without thinking, "What exactly happened to Gangzi?"

Captain Hu: "If you think you can help Liu Gang based on just these few words, then obviously it's impossible. Think about it carefully; it's not easy for a family to have a police officer."

"Don't let Liu Gang drag your whole family down with you in the end."

Liu Shuan wasn't stupid; he sensed the veiled threat in Captain Hu's voice. What had happened to Liu Gang? How could it have implicated the entire Liu family?

As if realizing something, a look of terror crossed Liu Shuan's eyes. He leaned forward, his handcuffed hands reaching out as if to grab Captain Hu: "Sir, we really don't know anything, sir..."

Captain Hu shouted, "Whether you truly had nothing to do with it or not, we will make our own judgment. Now tell us everything you know!"

Liu Shuan was nearly scared to death. Compared to becoming an enemy agent, accepting bribes and manipulating recruitment behind closed doors seemed like a minor crime.

"Boss, I'll tell you everything..."

Liu Shuan then spilled the beans, detailing exactly who he met on which day, month, and year, and what he received. The police officers then meticulously recorded everything against his ledgers to verify the accuracy of his account.

The interrogation of Liu Shuan lasted for more than three hours. The old man had worked in the machinery factory for more than 20 years and had turned himself into a gas thief.

When Captain Hu came out rubbing his temples, the bureau chief was waiting outside: "How did it go?"

“He’s a big rat,” Captain Hu said softly. “But judging from his behavior, he has no connection with Liu Gang’s in-laws. As for whether he is involved or not, I can’t make a definite judgment.”

"We can't be sure whether Liu Gang is involved or not." The director also had a headache: "This case is not under our jurisdiction. We are focusing on Jiao Dachun's case. There will naturally be someone following up on Liu Gang's case."

Captain Hu nodded knowingly: "It seems that Zhang Dacheng was indeed wronged back then. Now there are a lot of troubles behind him, and we don't know what to do next."

The bureau chief was also troubled. After thinking it over, he said, "I think you're not young anymore. It's time to train an apprentice."

Captain Hu hesitated for a moment: "That kid is only 14, isn't he too young?"

“He’s not young anymore,” the bureau chief waved his hand. “He’s only 14 and he dared to do something like this. He’s obviously not a good person. Let’s keep an eye on him. I’ll feel more at ease with you watching over him.”

Captain Hu sighed, "Alright, I'll go find him after this is over. He's still too young."

The upheavals at the machinery factory had absolutely no effect on Tan You; she was currently staring blankly at the tea leaves in front of her. When it came to tea, there were countless ways to prepare it.

Once we can get the matcha flavor right, we can make most of the pastries in the factory compatible.

After much deliberation, Tan You went to the production department and picked up a packet of milk powder. That's right, she wanted to make milk tea. Just think about the milk content in milk tea powder from later generations—even that would achieve annual sales of several small goals.

Moreover, Tan You isn't targeting the domestic market; she's planning something big. This kind of high-tech, cutting-edge product is naturally meant to earn foreign exchange. As for the flavors of milk tea, there are just too many to list. Pearls, red beans, coconut jelly, taro, jasmine, and so on—if you can imagine it, a milk tea shop can make it.

Judging by the time, the Canton Fair would be here soon. Thinking it over, Tan You quickly got to work.

While Tan You was busy working, the workers in Workshop One kept glancing at her. Everyone was curious: what new product could Tan You possibly create? Their Workshop One was eager to win another honor!

Since Workshop One rose to prominence, Tan You has also become a regular customer of Factory Director Hong. Factory Director Hong received the news as soon as Tan You started working.

After Tan You finished making the taro balls and sweet red beans, Factory Director Hong and several senior leaders strolled over. At that time, Tan You's milk tea had just been brewed, and the aroma of milk and sweetness filled the air as soon as they entered the workshop.

Factory Director Hong frowned: "What is this?"

"Little Yuanzi," Director Huang handed a cup of taro ball milk tea to Factory Director Hong, "Team Leader Qiao said this is taro ball milk tea, with both milk and tea leaves. It tastes even better chilled in the summer."

Factory Director Hong took a sip with some skepticism, but his eyes widened immediately after swallowing: "Delicious! It tastes even better than malted milk powder!"

The other leaders also picked up their milk tea cups. This drink, which would be popular in the streets and alleys of later generations, would be just as good in this world. For a moment, the workshop was filled with cheers.

Factory Director Hong hesitated for a moment: "We're a food factory, making milk tea..."

Director Huang seized on Factory Director Hong's Achilles' heel: "Do you want to earn foreign exchange?"

"Of course I want to!" Factory Director Hong slapped his thigh and turned to look at the milk tea: "This stuff can earn foreign exchange? The packaging is no good either."

Director Huang pulled Tan You aside: "Team Leader Qiao, you and Factory Director Hong should talk to each other carefully."

Tan You then explained how the milk tea powder was made; upon hearing that it only required hot water, Factory Manager Hong's eyes widened immediately. If, if that were really the case, this business would be a great opportunity!
Besides, what does a solid beverage have to do with the city's soda factory?
This is also a driven and ambitious person; he certainly sees the profit margin behind milk tea. The cost Tan You mentioned is ridiculously low. But what if it really earns foreign exchange for the country…?

For a moment, Director Hong's heart pounded with excitement.

Tan You smiled and felt that just having milk tea wasn't enough; the product range was a bit limited. Speaking of which, people in later generations would bring instant noodles when traveling for work, so should she include instant noodles in that too?
They acted on their ideas immediately, and within two days, the factory finalized its production plans for milk tea and instant noodles. After the first batch of samples was completed, Tan You, along with Factory Director Hong, two other employees, and a translator, boarded a train to the Canton Fair.

As for Guo Wenting, since the children were on summer vacation, Tan You took Guo Wenting along, which was a good opportunity for the children to broaden their horizons from a young age. Girls, after all, will be less likely to be deceived if they broaden their horizons.

This left Guo Jiantao and his family empty-handed.

"Are you looking for Team Leader Qiao? Team Leader Qiao went to Guangzhou to attend the Canton Fair, and he took Wen Ting with him." An aunt fanned herself, her eyes full of pride when she spoke of Tan You. After all, her daughter-in-law also worked in the workshop.

Guo Jiantao was taken aback: "The Canton Fair?"

He'd never even heard of this term before. How come his ex-wife had taken their daughter to Guangzhou? What was he going to do? He couldn't go on living like this while she was away.
