Chapter 178 Blackmail Beast (1) (Thanks to the bookworm and foodie leader for the reward!)

Qin Huai told Luo Jun and Chen Huihong very objectively what kind of character Gong Liang was.

Qin Huai can be very objective when he is objective. He only talks about who did what and what was said throughout the whole process. He does not make any personal comments, does not use any unnecessary rhetoric, and does not add any paragraphs that are made out of nothing.

Chen Huihong was eating melon seeds and listening outside the kitchen. She was afraid that Qin Huai's mouth would dry out if he talked too much, so she brought Qin Huai's blueberry yogurt in so that Qin Huai could have some yogurt while watching the heat.

Qin Huai said that if Chen Huihong had not stood at the door of the kitchen, he could have gone out to eat.

Just remember the time for steamed fruit and crab roe shaomai, so you don't have to watch the heat at all.

After Chen Huihong had eaten one fruit, two crab roe shaomai, and skillfully found the crisper box from the kitchen to pack the rest, Qin Huai was able to finish.

Qin Huai started to eat Chen Huihong's yogurt. Not to mention, the blueberry yogurt Zhang Shumei prepared today was probably made by herself using blueberry jam and yogurt. She added a lot of sugar and it was quite delicious.

"Sister Hong, Mr. Luo, can you guess what kind of spirit Gong Liang is?" Qin Huai asked.

Chen Huihong was still packing shortcakes when she blurted out without thinking: "You must be a blackmailer if you are so eloquent."

"Blackmail?" Qin Huai took out his mobile phone to check.

In the wilderness of the southwest, a false beast appears. It looks like a dodder, has a human face and can speak, and often deceives people. It speaks east and west, and speaks evil but good.

To put it simply, he is a spirit with the head of a rabbit, who always talks in one way and often tells lies and deceives others.

Qin Huai focused on the source.

"Shen Yi Jing".

This is not the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

"The false beast is a spirit from the "Shen Yi Jing", not the "Book of Mountains and Seas"." Qin Huai looked at the phone and said.

Chen Huihong showed a confused expression and counted the amount of shortcakes. She felt that she had divided them well and fairly. She was eight and Luo Jun was second.

Luo Jun is already old. Eating too much shortbread is not only bad for the stomach and intestines, but also bad for the teeth. She is different, she is still young and can still eat, and her brother also wants to eat shortbread.

When Chen Huihong took the cake home, he had to divide it into another third for Chen Yingjun.

"What is the "Shen Yi Jing"? Are there no evil beasts in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"? But I have seen it. I saw it when I was working as a tree in the mountains in the early years. They talked in one way. They said they were holding flowers and I gave me a lot of leaves in exchange, and even broke off a branch, and the flowers I gave were pretty good.”

"But later I found out that the flowers it gave me were randomly picked from the mountains in front of me, and they bullied me into not being able to move at that time." Chen Huihong said in person.

"We say that we are the spirits in the Classic of Mountains and Seas because there happens to be a book in the world called The Classic of Mountains and Seas. There are all kinds of wonders in the world. The spirits in the Classic of Mountains and Seas may not be found in our place. The spirits in our place are in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. There is no record in it." Luo Jun explained, "Chen Huihong must have said it right. Gong Liang is a blackmailer."

"I have seen it before. The blackmail beast has no special abilities. It is just very eloquent, can tell lies, and can do business. During the tribulation, as long as it is not so bold that it defrauds the rich and powerful of their money and is hunted down and beaten to death with sticks, leaving regrets. Basically it won’t fail.”

Qin Huai:?

So what Luo Jun means is that in his first life, Gong Liang defrauded powerful people of their money and was beaten to death with sticks. Is the blackmailer so sophisticated?

He really deserves to be the head of the sales department.

"I have another question. Gong Liang is obviously not the first life, why did I get his memory? Under normal circumstances, shouldn't I get his dreams?" Qin Huai asked again.

Luo Jun, who had his memory taken out, rolled his eyes angrily: "I don't have a system, I just know what I know? What's the use of asking me? If you have the ability, you can ask your system, you system Aren’t all the male protagonists able to communicate with the system? “Hello, host?”

Qin Huai said that he was the male protagonist of their system, and his spicy game system had no customer service.

Chen Huihong tried to analyze calmly: "Is it because he is about to successfully overcome the tribulation in this life and his obsession has been almost resolved, so there is no need to look at the memory of the first life."

"That's enough for this life."

"Or maybe it's your system..."

Chen Huihong said the last sentence so quietly that Qin Huai didn't hear it clearly. Just when he was about to turn around and ask Chen Huihong what the last sentence was, Luo Jun spoke impatiently.

"What's there to guess? What can you guess by guessing? Just look at it. Aren't you very happy when you look at my memory? Why do you look at other people's so irritatingly?"

Qin Huai:…

Well, Luo Jun was still very unhappy. Qin Huai watched three whole memories of him, watching the whole process of how he changed from a bi fang to a stupid bird.

Since Luo Jun urged him, Qin Huai didn't ask any more questions. What Luo Jun said is not wrong. Asking people other than the real owner before looking at the memory won't tell you anything.

Qin Huai clicked on [A Memory of Gong Liang] and chose Yes.

[Memory loading—]

"There is a large backlog of goods this year. The payment for cotton yarn and silk has not been settled. Director Luo of the Second Silk Factory has come to our factory three times to urge us. Chief Chen, I, Lao Li, also have a shame. You guys Can the sales department complete its tasks this quarter? The surrounding garment factories have tried it, as well as those in other provinces. If this continues, the salary for this month will not be paid. When I see that, you should not be the sales department chief. I am Don’t be the deputy factory director either.”

As soon as Qin Huai entered his memory, he saw several middle-aged people with sad faces in the office.

The person who spoke looked like he was in his 40s and was in his prime, but he already had obvious white hair on his head and obvious wrinkles on his forehead. He was slightly fatter than other people in the office, but that was entirely because everyone else was On the thin side.

In the eyes of modern people, this is a miserable middle-aged social animal with an ordinary appearance, a bit old due to overwork, not tall, and a normal figure.

"Deputy Director Li, our sales department has tried its best. Look, we only have a small number of people in our sales department. It is really difficult to sell silk now. Since foreign investors withdrew their orders the year before last, the first and second garment factories have lost their profits. It’s a good start, but our silk weaving factory is getting worse every year.”

"Besides, it's not like we didn't pay off the cotton yarn and silk on purpose. The first and second garment factories didn't pay off our goods either!"

“Originally, everyone was counting on going to the trade fair in Guangdong Province this year, but now the province has canceled our factory’s quota for the trade fair, so we can’t go to the trade fair. Even if we in the sales department break our legs, there’s nothing we can do. "

"Look at Xiao Gong, he is an only son. His father suffered a stroke last month and was paralyzed. When our sales department was short of manpower, he forced him to go to other places."

"There is a problem in our sales department before the order is negotiated, but it is not only our sales department's responsibility. Several people with strong business capabilities in our sales department have all found connections and been transferred to the cotton spinning factory. Deputy Director Li, we Really tried my best.”

After hearing what Section Chief Chen said, Deputy Director Li couldn't say anything else. He could only scratch his thinning hair and let out a deep sigh.

"You guys keep running away." Deputy Director Li said helplessly, "Think more of it. I know that Xiao Gong is very capable and has negotiated several deals. But the situation in his family... I have also heard about it recently. Give him less. It’s a good idea to be sent on a business trip, don’t be forced into a cotton mill.”

Section Chief Chen nodded.

Only then did Qin Huai realize that there was no Gong Liang in this office.

Just when Qin Huai wanted to go next door to see if Gong Liang was outside, the door opened, and Gong Liang, who was obviously still a young man, and could even see a bit of the protagonist's heroism and righteousness in his eyes, trotted in. Breathing heavily.

Gong Liang holds a Chinese medicine bag in his hand.

"Xiao Gong, I went to the hospital to get medicine for your dad and came back." Section Chief Chen was very kind and gentle to Gong Liang.

Gong Liang nodded: "Western medicine is too expensive. The doctor in the factory said that drinking Chinese medicine is also useful, but there are many medicinal materials that are not available. I went to the pharmacy outside to buy them."

Section Chief Chen sighed: "I know the factory has not been reimbursed for medicines for a long time. Now you have to be considerate of the poor efficiency of the factory."

"You don't need to go to Jinling next week. I'll go. The clothing factories there have a stable supply of goods, and they don't make much silk clothing. It's unlikely that we can negotiate. Now the travel expenses are being reimbursed late, and there are no subsidies. "You probably have to pay some money for this trip, so I'll go." Section Chief Chen said this to Deputy Director Li. Deputy Director Li touched his nose awkwardly, said he still had something to do, and left in a hurry.

Section Chief Chen rolled his eyes at Deputy Director Li's back angrily, and hurried away with a briefcase that had been patched with four patches and had two new holes.

There is one middle-aged person and one young person left in the office.

Xiaoqiang looks older than Gong Liang.

Qin Huai remembered that Huang Anyao told him that Gong Liang joined the silk weaving factory after graduating from technical secondary school. After working for more than a year and becoming a full-time employee, he encountered a major setback in his life. In the end, he became a blockbuster and became the head of the sales department, leading the entire silk weaving factory to glory.

This time point is the darkest moment in Gong Liang's life.

The young man came close to Gong Liang and said, "Gong Liang, you were not here just now. Our section chief and Deputy Factory Director Li had a fierce quarrel. It must be that our factory's quota for the exhibition was lost, and Deputy Factory Director Li was unhappy. If you don't feel happy, you can't come to our sales department to vent your anger. If the silk can't be sold, it just can't be sold. What does it have to do with us that the garment factory is in a downturn and can't collect silk."

Gong Liang looked very depressed and said in a low voice: "There is no problem with the silk in our factory. If it cannot be sold, it is indeed the responsibility of our sales department."

The young man obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, let alone take on this responsibility, so he changed the topic and said, "Last month's bonus was canceled again. Did you hear?"

Gong Liang didn't want to talk.

The young man also realized that he had said something wrong and hurriedly made up for it: "But I heard that those who wait until the Chinese New Year will be given a sum of money, and each person will be given a pound of meat! But only those who are working will receive it, and those who are retired and those who have retired due to illness will receive it." No."

Gong Liang continued not to speak.

The young man then remembered that Gong Liang's father had just retired due to an unexpected illness two months ago. He covered his mouth in annoyance, and then made up for it: "I also heard that the labor union will organize a blind date next month..."

Qin Huai had closed his eyes in despair. This young man was really good at talking, and he would not open any pot.

"Liu Hai, if you really have nothing to do, go make phone calls or write letters to see if there are any garment factories or quilt factories in other provinces that need silk, even if it is a small factory making silk fans with only a few dozen people. Ask them all." The middle-aged man in the office spoke.

"Oh." Liu Hai rubbed oil on his soles and ran away.

"Gong Liang, don't listen to Xiao Liu's nonsense. He doesn't keep his mouth shut. You made a deal in Guangling last month, and you will definitely get a bonus next month. If your dad takes Chinese medicine in the future, I will have one here. I know an old Chinese medicine doctor. I will take you there another day and ask him to come and see your father." The middle-aged man said.

"You've already taken the medicine. As long as I'm in the office, you go back and take care of your dad. Your mom can't take care of him alone."

Gong Liang stood up in confusion, nodded slightly dully, said thank you, and walked away.

It is indeed floating.

Gong Liang was obviously absent-minded, his soul seemed not to be in his body, and he almost thought that I was worried. It was written on his face that I had been in a lot of pain recently. I couldn't even walk straight. It was obvious that I was really hurt.

Gong Liang left the silk weaving factory and walked home along the road.

There were no people on the road at this point, only children who were obviously not yet of school age were playing on the roadside. Occasionally, a few middle-aged women could be seen hurriedly carrying things.

Qin Huai knew that the silk weaving factory and the cotton spinning factory were both near Huang Ji, but he couldn't tell where they were just by looking at the nearby bungalows and streets. Decades have changed too much, and he can only follow Gong Liang, looking at the soulless Gong Liang wandering on the street carrying a medicine bag.

Unconsciously, Gong Liang walked to the street where Huang Ji was.

Qin Huai didn't know the streets, but he knew the state-owned hotel, and Zheng Da, who was squatting in front of the state-owned hotel, obviously having nothing to do, but he didn't know who he was waiting for.

Zheng Da looked a bit like Zheng Siyuan when he was young. Qin Huai felt that he probably knew what Zheng Siyuan looked like when he was 40 or 50 years old.

"Gong Liang!" Zheng Da's eyes lit up when he saw Gong Liang, and he almost jumped up and ran towards him.

Gong Liang was called back to his senses. When he came to his senses, Zheng Da had already run in front of him. Gong Liang was obviously frightened.

"What's wrong?" Gong Liang asked.

"Why are you always absent-minded during this time? Be careful of being hit by a bicycle while walking." Zheng Da said.

"No." Gong Liang said calmly.

"I have some good news for you. I got a full-time job! Now I am a full-time worker in a state-owned hotel. I just received my salary today. I also have candy coupons and meat coupons. I can also buy meat and vegetables at a cheap price!" Zheng Dam said with excitement.

"Oh." Gong Liang said lightly, "Congratulations."

Zheng Da clicked his tongue: "Your congratulations are not sincere. Forget it, your family has forgiven you for so many things recently."

Gong Liang forced out a wry smile and was about to walk back when Zheng Da grabbed him.

"I have to go back and make medicine for my dad. If you want to tell the wonderful story of how you became a full-time employee, can you come to my house tonight and talk about it?" Gong Liang said helplessly.

"Am I that kind of person? Do you think I am my senior brother? If I talk about it for three days, I wish that everyone in the silk weaving factory and cotton spinning factory would know about it."

"I have something for you." Zheng Da took out a tin lunch box and a small cloth bag from his arms.

Only then did Qin Huai realize that Zheng Da had been squatting in front of the state-owned hotel, with his hands crossed in front of his chest, not because this position made it easier to squat, but because this position made it easier to hold the lunch box in his arms.

"Today's meat dish, let you catch up, braised braised pork with quail eggs, my master cooked it himself, and the meat ticket just issued went in. I ate half of it, grabbed the other half from my senior brother's bowl, and gave it to you Ordered a portion.”

Gong Liang was stunned.

"Didn't the doctor say that your dad needs nutritional supplements? This is definitely nutritious enough!"

"But the doctor said that my dad can't eat anything heavy in oil and salt now. Besides, my dad is now semi-paralyzed and can't take care of himself. He will definitely not be able to eat meat in a short time." Gong Liang said weakly.

Zheng Da: "...Then I will give your mother some nutrition. I finally saved it. I have been squatting in front of the state-owned hotel waiting for you to get off work and dare not go in. I am afraid that I will eat the meat as soon as I sit down."

Gong Liang smiled, took the lunch box, pointed at the cloth bag and asked, "What is this?"

Zheng Da proudly opened it a little, revealing a corner with money inside.

"In addition to the 10 yuan I gave to my mother in my salary this month, I kept 5 yuan for myself and lent the rest to you."

"When I go back in the evening, I will **** my senior brother's share and ask him to lend it to you as well."

"Your dad cannot stop taking the medicine. If he stops taking the medicine now, he will be paralyzed for the rest of his life."

Gong Liang looked at Zheng Da and was silent for a long time. He moved his lips tremblingly and slowly said two words: "Thank you."

Zheng Da waved coolly, turned around and left. Only in this way would he feel less heartbroken.

Gong Liang carried the lunch box and money and continued walking home.
