When Yang Wang and the other two came out, the deputy factory director of the zipper factory was following beside them.
He tightly grasped the deputy factory director's hand and shook it vigorously. "Director Li, our Dongxing Luggage Manufacturing Factory welcomes you at any time."
"Although it started its development in Nan County, its sales points cover ten big cities. It's developing vigorously and won't disappoint you. Our luggage production also can't do without the zippers from Hongxing Zipper Factory. Hongxing Zipper Factory is our choice after multiple investigations. It's trustworthy."
Director Li beamed from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly.
Yang Wang gave a look to the side. "Xiao Zhang, take out the gifts."
As soon as he finished speaking, Director Li of Hongxing Zipper Factory and Director Li beside him waved their hands repeatedly, their faces changing.
"Hey, we don't accept gifts here!"
"Comrade Yang, aren't you trying to get us in trouble? Take it back quickly, take it back quickly!"
Yang Wang was taken aback for a moment and then burst out laughing. "Hey, this isn't any big gift. It's just the products from our own factory, schoolbags. They're not worth much. Just consider them as souvenirs from us."
Zhang He and Yang Zhu presented the wrapped boxes with both hands.
Only then did Director Li and Director Li realize they had made a fool of themselves, but they also heaved a sigh of relief.
Taking bribes was out of the question.
After they got out of the zipper factory gate.
Yang Wang leaned against the big tree at the gate and slowly let out a breath.
He was scared to death.
Fortunately, Hua Qingqing had rehearsed with them in advance. Otherwise, they couldn't have acted so naturally. It was really tiring!
Yang Wang wiped the sweat off his face and gave a hearty smile to his two subordinates who were in no better state.
"This time we've completed the task. Brother Yang will treat you to a big meal. I don't know what the state - run restaurants in Shanghai taste like. Let's go. Let's go and have a meal first and then make a phone call to report the good news."
...
When Hua Qingqing learned that Yang Wang had closed the deal.
She felt relieved.
Although she knew Yang Wang was capable, he had never really negotiated a business deal before. She had given him a little training before he set off, hoping it would be of some use.
Now it seemed that the effect was more than just good.
The factory had produced another batch of goods, which had been arranged to be sent to the capital and given to the Guang Hei and Guang Bai siblings.
These two had written a letter saying that they had taken a fancy to a shop.
The shop wasn't expensive. It was right next to a school, and the owner was eager to sell it. They asked her if they should buy it and use it specifically as a place to sell bags.
Hua Qingqing directly agreed and suggested opening it as a stationery store.
Alas, there was still a shortage of people.
The two newly produced batches of goods were sent, one to the north and the other to the south which was a bit towards the north.
The market in the south hadn't even had a chance to be opened.
Looking at the factory, there was no suitable person available.
Sigh.
Nan County was just this big. It was hard to find a few suitable people.
With this problem in mind, Hua Qingqing returned to the Yu family. From the room of the second uncle, there came the sound of singing. One could tell at once that someone was playing the radio inside.
Hua Qingqing walked over and listened for a while.
Yu Linyang greeted her warmly. "Cousin, you're back!"
Hua Qingqing responded with a grunt. "Where did you get this radio?"
The twins looked at each other and then honestly confessed.
"Uncle Yu gave it to us."
Given by Yu Jianchuan?
For some reason, Hua Qingqing felt something was off.
She asked again. "Did he get this radio from Grandma?"
Yu Linyun snorted. "Our grandma is so stingy. Who could get something from her? The things she took away were all given to the eldest brother. This tape - recorder was newly bought by Uncle. Uncle said we should not take it out for the time being. We waited for a week and then took it out to listen secretly."
Bought?
Bought again.
There were already three of them. Three tape - recorders were not cheap!
What kind of business was Yu Jianchuan doing? It seemed that the money he earned would never run out.
Hua Qingqing didn't know much about this little uncle. The original body's memory of him was mainly that Yu Jianchuan secretly gave her food. There was nothing else.
"Hey, do you two know what Uncle is doing now?"
Hua Qingqing asked casually.
She didn't really expect to hear any useful information.
However, this time she was wrong. The twins nodded, indicating that they knew.
Huh?
Hua Qingqing walked into the room and sat down, planning to listen carefully.
Yu Linyun said, "Uncle is setting up a stall in the county town to sell things. It seems to be sunglasses, belts and so on. Oh, and tape - recorders. Uncle's stall also sells tape - recorders."
It sounded quite ordinary.
But Hua Qingqing always felt something was wrong. She decided to go and take a look on the spot.
She hoped that he wasn't really doing something bad as she suspected.
Yu Jianchuan was a good person, someone who had been nice to the original body in this family.
She didn't want such a good person to end up badly.
That night, Yu Jianchuan didn't return to the Yu family.
Hua Qingqing's plan to talk to him fell through. Early the next morning, she rode a bicycle and took Yu Linyun with her to the small commercial street in the county town.
The trend from the provincial capital had gradually reached this small county of Nan County.
The people had spontaneously created a small commercial street, which was quite lively.
Hua Qingqing had been in school or busy with factory affairs during this period and hadn't noticed that there had been quite a change in the whole of Nan County.
When they came to Yu Jianchuan's stall, they found that there were quite a few onlookers.
Hua Qingqing didn't get closer. She observed from a distance. Sure enough, there were sunglasses and belts as the twins had said on Yu Jianchuan's stall, and there was a tape - recorder on top.
It was like these things were mass - produced in Yu Jianchuan's hands. One would appear every now and then. There was only one in the supply and marketing cooperative, and no one had bought it yet.
Wait, how much did Yu Jianchuan say this tape - recorder cost?
A hundred yuan, and no tickets were needed.
A hundred yuan was a lot of money, but for a tape - recorder, this price was still...
Where on earth did these tape - recorders come from? They were sold so cheaply.
"Are we just going to stand here and watch? Aren't we going to say hello to Uncle?"
Hua Qingqing shook her head and took out five yuan and gave it to Yu Linyun.
"You go and have fun by yourself first. I have something to do and I have to leave first. We'll meet at this small commercial street again this afternoon."
After saying that, regardless of Yu Linyun's reaction, she directly stuffed the money into her hand and rode away from the bustling small commercial street.
Hua Qingqing found a place with a phone and called Yang Wang.
Fortunately, the other party hadn't left the guesthouse and received her call.
"Don't say anything first. I have something to ask you."
"If someone gets caught for smuggling foreign goods and trafficking in imported goods, can you help me get them out later?"
Yang Wang on the other end of the phone seemed to be stunned by this question. It took him a long time before he asked nervously and cautiously.
"Qingqing, have you been smuggling foreign goods?"
Hua Qingqing said, "It's not me. I have a friend who seems to be doing this kind of thing. I can't find a way to make him give it up, so I might as well just ask you if there's anyone who can help get him out."
She really felt that Yu Jianchuan might be in big trouble.
