Chapter 109 Work, House, Gold Bars (Subscription Request) Listening to Ning Weidong's narration, Lu Zhou suddenly felt as if he had been enlightened. He had never thought about these things before, and no one told him about them. He opened his mouth and instinctively wanted to refute, but suddenly he didn't know what to say. Because he realized that what Ning Weidong said were all insightful and worthwhile words. Looking back now, he always wanted to show off or even boast about his abilities in front of his superiors, and he thought he was very capable. It was really stupid. Ning Weidong patted him on the shoulder and continued, "I remember you said last time that you wanted to be a deputy section chief?" Lu Zhou nodded subconsciously. Ning Weidong said: "Deputy Section Chief is not the same as Deputy Director or Deputy Factory Director. Lao Lu, with your qualifications, this request is not excessive. As long as you understand your position and do what you should do, you will become a Deputy Section Chief naturally." Lu Zhou couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He realized that Ning Weidong might be making empty promises for him, but what he said just now was really insightful. If what Ning Weidong said is true, given his situation, is it too demanding to be a deputy section chief?

Lu Zhou closed his eyes and tried hard to adjust his emotions. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I understand." Ning Weidong nodded: "Then let's talk about what happened today~" Lu Zhou said with a paralyzed face: "I know, you should have heard from Li Peihang that there is a man named He Yongbiao in Workshop 4..." Ning Weidong was not in a hurry to say that he had already made arrangements for He Yongbiao, and listened patiently to what Lu Zhou said. Lu Zhou said: "This He Yongbiao is just a cover. Wang Kaifeng's real backer is Wu Dazhou, deputy director of the fourth workshop." Ning Weidong's heart trembled. According to what he had learned from Li Peihang before, the director and deputy director of Workshop 4 were both Li Weibing's men, so what he needed to worry about were the people in the various work teams below them. But he didn't expect that Lu Zhou would bring him such important news. If his information was correct, Wu Dazhou, deputy director of Workshop 4, had defected. Ning Weidong frowned and asked, "Is the news reliable?" Lu Zhou swore, "I guarantee with my life that Wu Dazhou secretly went to Wang Guoqiang's wife's parents' home before the Chinese New Year. I have a comrade who lives in the same building as them. I went there during the Chinese New Year and happened to see it with my own eyes." Ning Weidong narrowed his eyes slightly, his face remained expressionless, and he secretly felt fortunate in his heart that the morale of Li Weibing's side was really low. Fortunately, he didn't count on them in the beginning, otherwise he would have been killed by such a stupid teammate. Even Wu Dazhou is on the opposite side, so there are more opportunities for the lower levels to do something fishy. If Ning Weidong really planned to defend tightly, he would definitely lose this game. But there was no need to tell Lu Zhou about these situations. Ning Weidong said seriously, "I understand. I'm leaving first." Without saying anything more to Lu Zhou, he left the bathroom directly, walked along the corridor to the large staircase in the middle of the building and went downstairs. Lu Zhou followed behind and watched Ning Weidong's figure disappear, but he turned to the other side and went up the small stairs next to him. There are three staircases on the first floor of the Red Star Factory’s office building, a large staircase in the middle and small staircases on both sides.

Lu Zhou went up to the third floor. In the stairwell on the third floor, I happened to meet Feng Wen who was smoking. Feng Wen was not surprised, instead he asked calmly: "It's done." Lu Zhou nodded, his eyes a little obscure. Feng Wen had long been accustomed to his expressionless face. He pushed his glasses and asked, "Does he believe you?" Lu Zhou said: "I should believe it." Feng Wen said "hmm", said nothing else, and turned and left. Lu Zhou saw him enter Wang Kaifeng's office, but did not follow him. Instead, he turned around and went downstairs. Ning Weidong left the office building and returned to the duty room of workshop four. The information Lu Zhou provided just now should be very useful. If Ning Weidong intends to guard against it strictly and plug the big loophole of Wu Dazhou, it will undoubtedly be very important for the whole situation. Unfortunately, Ning Weidong never wanted to wait until that point. If it really comes to that, I'll just give up this game. Therefore, the information provided by Lu Zhou is actually of no value to Ning Weidong. But just because this matter is worthless doesn’t mean that Lu Zhou as a person is worthless. Ning Weidong had never really believed in Lu Zhou. Not to mention Lu Zhou, even someone like Liu Dong, who had a cleaner background and took the initiative to step forward and pledge his allegiance under the circumstances at the time, needed to train new people bit by bit, let alone someone like Lu Zhou. If Lu Zhou provided information about Wu Dazhou on purpose and had ulterior motives, Ning Weidong just took advantage of the situation and made them think they had succeeded. Struggles are always complicated, and this complexity often comes not from things but from people. One person can never know what is in another person's mind. So, instead of trying to figure out people's minds, it's better to focus on the things. …… Ning Weidong didn't spend too much time on Lu Zhou. After returning from the building, he was waiting and would go to Zhang Dajun in the afternoon. They had an appointment to get off work in the afternoon, but before four o'clock Ning Weidong made some arrangements and left on his bike. Tomorrow is March 1st. The good days for the naughty kid Ning Lei are over, and school is finally starting. It just so happens that today is the second day of the second month in the lunar calendar, the day when the dragon raises its head. Ning Weidong had no time to eat the pig head, so he rode his bike to Sui Fujing Police Station. It was not even five o'clock and the sky was already dark. Ning Weidong arrived at the police station, parked his bicycle, found Zhang Dajun and called him "Brother Zhang".

Zhang Dajun raised his head and said with a smile, "Brother, you haven't eaten yet, right? It's a good opportunity for us to talk while eating. There's a state-owned restaurant in front that serves really good Mushu pork." Ning Weidong was not polite: "That's great, I'm actually a little hungry." As Zhang Dajun spoke, he picked up the things on the table, put them into a black leather bag, closed the brass zipper, and went out with Ning Weidong. The two of them didn't ride their bikes. They walked south along the alley in front of the police station. Not far away, they saw a restaurant with lights on, but it was not the Limin Canteen they went to last time. The restaurant was not big. Zhang Dajun pushed the door open and walked in, shouting, "Master Chen, hurry up, a plate of Muxu pork and a casserole of boiled pork." A bald man in his forties answered, and while pouring water and washing the pot, he asked with a smile: "Lao Zhang, why did you come to my place for dinner tonight?" Zhang Dajun said, "Come here, my friend, let's talk about something in your inner room." Then he pointed towards the back kitchen. Master Chen smiled innocently and said, "As you wish." Zhang Dajun led Ning Weidong along the aisle at the side and came to a private room inside. It was called a private room, but in fact it was just a storage room. In addition to an octagonal table and four benches in the middle, there were several boxes and other sundries piled up on the north side of the room near the window. Maybe some of the old customers like to drink and brag, but they can't go to the big restaurants with private rooms, so they feel uncomfortable sitting outside, so they come here. Zhang Dajun took off his coat and hung it on the hanger next to the door. To avoid it getting stained with white lime, he pasted New Year pictures on the wall. He then took a rag from the side and wiped the table. Ning Weidong also hung up his coat and sat down. At this time, a middle-aged woman with a smile on her face came in from outside, greeted them with a smile, handed them a small stack of peanuts, and asked, "Would you like something to drink?" Zhang Dajun waved his hand: "I won't come today, I'll come next time." The woman didn't argue and just turned and left. Ning Weidong couldn't wait and asked, "Brother Zhang, what's going on?" Zhang Dajun said: "Lu Yong's situation is relatively clear. Since he died in a work-related accident last year, his family has received compensation from the factory. Their two sons and one daughter have all been given jobs..." When Ning Weidong heard the pension conditions listed by Zhang Dajun, he knew there must be a problem. Normally, work-related injuries are not uncommon in factories, especially in heavy industry factories. According to normal standards, it is impossible for Lu Yong's family to receive so many preferential treatments. But at this moment, a shout came from outside: "Mushu meat is here~" What I mean is, stop talking for a moment, I'll serve you the food. After waiting for a few seconds, the woman came in with a plate of steaming Mu Shu pork, and in her other hand she skillfully held two large bowls of rice. After putting it down, he walked out swiftly. After she walked away, Zhang Dajun continued, "Zhan Shengli lived in Nanluoguxiang. I asked a comrade-in-arms to find out. Although it's not as detailed as this, the general situation is similar." Ning Weidong nodded, just as he expected. After understanding this situation, it can be basically confirmed that the deaths of these two people were not simple work-related injuries.

Otherwise, the factory would not have felt guilty. If they wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter, they had to appease the victim's family. The dead are dead, but the living must live. The question now is whether this matter was directly carried out by Wang Kaifeng and what means he used. If these things were made public, they would be enough to crush Wang Kaifeng to death. At the same time, it is necessary to separate the two people who died in work-related injuries from those accidents. Ning Weidong had only one goal from beginning to end, which was to kill Wang Kaifeng. Everything else is paths and means, and we must never put the cart before the horse. Although those accidents may look scary, if you act rashly, it will only backfire. As I said, with Ning Weidong's current status, he cannot carry such a heavy burden. Instead, it will encounter huge and uncertain resistance from the outside world. It can be imagined that the power is at least at the same level as the Wang family and the Zhao family, or even stronger. It is impossible for ordinary people to control such a large chain of interests and transform the resources of the factory. Ning Weidong took a bite of Mu Shu pork. You know what, no wonder Zhang Dajun specifically mentioned it. The cooking time was just right. Especially when paired with steaming rice, it was so delicious after one big mouthful. Then the casserole with boiled pork was served. This kind of casserole dish is prepared in advance and is taken out and put on the fire to cook when customers order it. After the dishes were served and no one was interrupting, Ning Weidong continued to talk to Zhang Dajun: "Brother Zhang, is there a suitable breakthrough point on these two sides?" This is the key. We must find the key points and key people. Although the dead are gone, the living must still live. But Ning Weidong didn't believe that the children from the two families were so heartless and complacent. They are all in their teens or twenties, and they must want to know how their father died. It’s just that no one had instigated it before, and the power displayed by Wang Kaifeng was too great, which made them afraid and just muddle through. But as I said before, people’s hearts are fickle. They might retreat at that time, but not necessarily at this time. Zhang Dajun understood Ning Weidong's thoughts and immediately said, "These two have five children in total. Lu Yong has two sons and one daughter, and Zhan Shengli has one son and one daughter. Zhan Shengli is older, and his children are married. He has a family to support, so he has a lot of concerns..." Ning Weidong nodded, understanding what he meant. There was little hope of winning the match against Shengli. Zhang Dajun continued, "It was Lu Yong's youngest son, who was only 19 years old this year and full of vigor. He had doubts about the cause of Lu Yong's death and even went to the factory and the police station to make trouble." Ning Weidong raised his eyebrows. This was exactly the kind of person he wanted. No matter what his purpose was, whether he really wanted to find out the cause of his father's death or wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to gain more benefits. As long as he has the courage to be the first to speak out, that's enough...

Next, Zhang Dajun explained in detail the situation of Lu Yong’s youngest son. This man is called Lu Xuesong. He also currently works at the Red Star Factory, in the Security Department. It is estimated that Wang Kaifeng placed him in the Security Department because he wanted to keep a close eye on him. After all, Lu Xuesong was the only troublemaker among these two families. As for the other members of the Lu family, the eldest brother Lu Shuishan did not work in the steel rolling mill. He was originally a laborer who carried heavy bags in the cotton mill, which was the hardest and most tiring job. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Kaifeng was transferred directly to the Logistics Department. He used his connections there and not only earned more salary, but also had the easiest work. Now I live with the old lady of the Lu family. I have two sons, one is four years old and the other is two years old. Another daughter of the Lu family is a primary school teacher and she also just joined last year. After I got a job, I started dating a guy who works at the tax office and we are almost at the stage of discussing marriage. After all the calculations, Lu Xuesong is the one I worry about the least. Ning Weidong asked: "Brother Zhang, where is Lu Xuesong now?" Zhang Dajun said: "He had a bad quarrel with his family that time, and was arrested for picking a fight. He was detained for two days before he agreed to the conditions. Later, he moved directly to the factory and applied for a single dormitory." Ning Weidong frowned: "In the factory?" Zhang Dajun nodded, also feeling a little embarrassed. Large factories and mines have their own internal systems, and even if he goes there, he won't be able to do anything. And once we go there, will it alert the enemy? Ning Weidong thought for a moment, picked up a large piece of pickled cabbage from the casserole with chopsticks, put it in the bowl, slurped it up, and ate it directly into his stomach, mumbling: "Brother Zhang, let's be quick. After we finish eating, we'll go meet this Lu Xuesong." Time wins at this point. Ning Weidong can't waste a moment. People from higher-level units will come to the factory tomorrow afternoon, and the process flow will be finalized by the day after tomorrow at the latest. Then it will be time for Wang Kaifeng to take action. Ning Weidong doesn't have much time left... After making up their minds, the two old men ate faster and finished the whole bowl and basin in no time. Zhang Dajun was in charge of settling the bill and Ning Weidong did not try to grab it from him. It was just a small amount of money and there was no need to be too fussy about it. Anyway, Ning Weidong has already made up his mind that he will definitely thank Zhang Dajun after this matter is over. No matter what Chu Zhongxin said, this was the friendship between him and Zhang Dajun. After leaving the restaurant, the two returned to the police station to get their bicycles. Ning Weidong thought about it, picked up the phone and called the factory. After a while, Ning Wei answered the call after being transferred through the switchboard. Ning Weidong said: "Xiaowei, I'm not going home tonight, you should come out too~"

Ning Wei responded on the other end and they both hung up. Zhang Dajun frowned and said, "Do you want me to call two people?" Ning Weidong shook his head and said, "No, I have someone over there." In fact, Ning Weidong called just now because he wanted to ask Liu Dong and others if they knew Lu Xuesong. Among the people in Workshop 4, Liu Dong is considered to be relatively reliable. But calls in this era needed to be transferred, especially calls to the factory, which were all transferred through the switchboard. Some telephone operators on duty at night get bored and listen to other people's phone calls. As for what I just said to Ning Wei, it was a secret code agreed upon in advance. To let him out is to wait at the factory gate, to go home is to meet at Ning Weidong's house, to ask the fourth brother is to ask Chu Zhongxin for help... Ning Weidong and Zhang Dajun came out on bicycles. Ning Weidong turned a corner to go home first, and then went straight to the Red Star Factory, but did not go directly to the factory. Far away from the south gate of the factory, the two saw Ning Wei standing at the entrance of an alley on the side of the road. Ning Weidong and Zhang Dajun walked straight over and entered the alley. There were three other people inside, Liu Dong, Wang Xuewen and Zhao Chunming. When Ning Weidong saw him, he immediately wanted to ask about the situation, but he found that Zhang Dajun was still following him. He was not sure what the situation was, so he immediately kept silent. Ning Weidong first asked about the situation on He Yongbiao's side. Originally, he planned to deal with He Yongbiao tonight to show the outside world that he was doing everything he could to find and fill in the gaps. Ning Wei said: "Leave it to Wang Weiran." Ning Wei has the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. Ning Weidong originally asked him to go, but suddenly called him. There must be something more important. He simply handed He Yongbiao over to Wang Weiran and met up with Ning Weidong first. Ning Weidong nodded, quite satisfied with this arrangement. Ning Wei does have the potential to stand on his own. Then he asked Liu Dong: "Xiao Liu, do you know Lu Xuesong from our security department?" "Lu Xuesong?" Liu Dong thought for a moment and said, "You mean the one in charge of the equipment room? I know him! Leader, who are you looking for?" Ning Weidong nodded and said, "Can you call this person out?" Liu Dong nodded immediately: "Lu Xuesong lives in the factory's single dormitory. I have a friend who also lives there. I often go there. He lives next door to me." …… After confirming that Liu Dong knew Lu Xuesong, Ning Weidong and a few others immediately got on their bikes, bypassed the south gate of the factory and went directly to the west gate. The factory logistics department is on the west gate side, and there is an extra small door for the dormitory and bathhouse.

A few people came here. The bathhouse on the second floor was brightly lit. On the south side of the bathhouse, entering the moon gate was the factory dormitory. Places like the Red Star Factory have the most single young men without houses, and many people live in single dormitories. It is especially noisy at night. Ning Weidong took a look inside through the moon gate, gave Ning Wei and Liu Dong a look, signaling them to pass through. The two of them looked serious and immediately nodded and walked in. The dormitories inside were all bungalows. Lu Xuesong was in the second room, but when he turned in, he disappeared. There are too many people here, and you may not know everyone in each workshop. People come and go all the time. You may move in today, and he may move out tomorrow. There is no permanent place. He was not afraid that Ning Wei and Liu Dong would be discovered. After a while, a short young man with a childish face followed Ning Wei and Liu Dong out. Coming to Ning Weidong, he frowned and looked at Ning Weidong and Zhang Dajun: "Are you looking for me?" Ning Weidong asked back: "Are you Lu Xuesong?" The young man nodded, his expression becoming more alert: "Who are you?" Ning Weidong said: "I am Ning Weidong, the security officer of our factory." Lu Xuesong was a little surprised: "Are you Ning Weidong?" He is also from the Security Department and has heard of Ning Weidong's name. This is not surprising. A while ago, Ning Weidong was transferred from the west gate to the building, and he caused a lot of discussion among the young people in the Security Department. Ning Weidong introduced Zhang Dajun: "This is a comrade from the public security department." Zhang Dajun smiled and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Comrade Lu Xuesong, my name is Zhang Dajun." As he said this, he took out his ID and waved it in front of Lu Xuesong. When Lu Xuesong heard that it was a police officer, he was young and inexperienced, so he immediately shook hands with Zhang Dajun and said, "Hello, comrade." Ning Weidong said, "Tonight, the factory leader asked me to accompany Comrade Zhang to find you to learn some information. Is that okay?" Lu Xuesong quickly said: "No problem, that... is it here?" Ning Weidong had already made up his mind: "Let's talk outside." Several people left the dormitory and went outside the factory through the door of the bathhouse. Across the street is the workers' residential area of ​​the Red Star Factory, which is a large area of ​​bungalows. Next to the bungalow, there is a three-story red brick building, which is the factory’s guesthouse. Ning Weidong and his companions arrived at the guesthouse and went to the counter at the entrance. Behind the counter, a girl with pigtails and sleeves raised her eyelids and looked at him. She asked listlessly with a rag in her mouth, "Are you a government official or a private person?" Ning Weidong said: "I am from the security department of our factory. Some friends are here."

The girl behind the counter took a quick look and saw that they were all men, no men or women, so she reminded them, "Be careful, you are not allowed to play poker for money, and you are not allowed to make loud noises after ten o'clock..." This kind of thing is not uncommon. Young people like Ning Weidong, when their friends come over on weekends, will stay in a guesthouse if they have enough money, and will just stay in a single dormitory if they are short of money. They checked into a four-person room, Ning Weidong paid the deposit, asked Liu Dong to register his work ID, and then they went upstairs. The guesthouses of this era are certainly not comparable to the hotels of later generations, but fortunately the heater in the room is good and is connected to the large boiler in the factory. He came into the room and asked Ning Wei and Liu Dong to go outside to smoke, leaving only Ning Weidong, Zhang Dajun and Lu Xuesong in the room. Lu Xuesong was already feeling uneasy knowing that Zhang Dajun was a public security officer, and now he felt even more uneasy. Ning Weidong took out a cigarette, handed him one and said, "Don't be nervous. We have no ill will towards you. We just want to know about your father's situation back then." Lu Xuesong's expression froze, and then he said with a bitter face: "Don't test me, I really won't look for her, and I won't sue her, I admit it!" Ning Weidong heard the hidden meaning. Probably after making arrangements for Lu Xuesong, Wang Kaifeng felt uneasy and set up a test for him by giving him a fishing trip. By now, Lu Xuesong had learned a lesson from his mistakes. Ning Weidong comforted him, "Comrade Lu Xuesong, I think you misunderstood." He took out a lighter and helped him light the cigarette: "I don't know what happened to you before, but justice may be late, but it will never be absent..." Ning Weidong said a lot of things and finally made Lu Xuesong believe that they were not here to fish. "You guys really want to investigate my dad's affairs?" A glimmer of hope appeared in Lu Xuesong's eyes. Ning Weidong and Zhang Dajun looked at each other. Zhang Dajun said in a deep voice: "Comrade Lu Xuesong, please don't worry, I can assure you." Lu Xuesong frowned and smoked silently. After a while, he said, "I see. You want to use me to deal with Director Wang, right?" Ning Weidong was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Lu Xuesong was quite smart. Lu Xuesong continued: "I understand that the enemy of my enemy is my friend." Ning Weidong did not hide his words and admitted: "Of course, your understanding is correct. In short, our goals are the same, and you don't want your father to die in vain, right~" Lu Xuesong fell silent again. This time Ning Weidong was not in a hurry to speak. From the conversation just now, we can see that Lu Xuesong is not stupid, nor does he act recklessly. No matter how much you say at this time, it will be useless. He has certain rules in his mind. After about three or four minutes, Lu Xuesong spoke again: "Can you promise that you can bring down Wang Kaifeng?" Although Lu Xuesong is not stupid, his vision is limited after all, and the biggest boss he can see is Wang Kaifeng. In other words, he didn't know the chain of interests and its extension, and even Wang Guoqiang behind Wang Kaifeng didn't want to think about it. Since it was Wang Kaifeng who actually did the work, he directed the focus of the conflict towards Wang Kaifeng.

But this is exactly what Ning Weidong meant. If he was not targeting Wang Kaifeng, it would be difficult to deal with. Ning Weidong also estimated that when Wang Kaifeng dealt with the aftermath of Lu Yong and Zhan Shengli, he must have used a combination of kindness and severity. In addition to giving benefits to these two families, they must also kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, and the "chicken" to be killed is Lu Xuesong. Of course, it's just an analogy. Lu Xuesong was not really killed. It's just that Lu Xuesong must have suffered a lot, much more serious than what we know now. Ning Weidong said: "Comrade Lu Xuesong, since we are investigating, we will definitely not let any bad guy go. As long as you can stand up and bite Wang Kaifeng to death, I can bring him down and give justice to your father and you." Lu Xuesong was silent again. Ning Weidong knew that he was waiting for a good price, and it involved substantive issues. It was meaningless to just paint a rosy picture and say nice things. He had to come up with something tangible to impress him. Ning Weidong said: "After this matter is accomplished, I can transfer you to the building." Lu Xuesong's eyes lit up. His current job is to manage some security departments, mainly the equipment and supplies of the factory protection team. Although the work is leisurely, he is a marginal person. If he were forty years old now, he would think this job was perfect, but he was only nineteen and still had a lot of ideas. Ning Weidong is very good at understanding the needs of young people, and a job that leaves more room for imagination can be very touching. But this is far from enough, Ning Weidong said: "Next year, the factory will build a family building, and there will be a quota for you." This is nonsense, because Ning Weidong has no idea whether the factory will build a staff housing building next year. However, for Lu Xuesong, who lives in a single dormitory, owning a house of his own, even a short indicator is enough to make his heart beat faster. But this is still not enough. If you want people to work hard, it is not enough to just say "after the matter is done" or "wait until next year", there must be something that can be directly delivered on the spot. This is not just a deposit, but also a credit endorsement, which makes people believe that you can fulfill your promises instead of just talking nonsense without any explanation. Ning Weidong was already prepared. He reached into his inner pocket and took out a large yellow croaker, then slammed it heavily on the bedside table next to him. Ning Weidong just came out of the police station and went back specifically to get this. Last time I got three big yellow croakers from the cellar, and I took one out directly at the critical moment. This big yellow croaker is worth more than 4,000 yuan in cash. But if Wang Kaifeng is brought down, it would be worth taking out not just one, but all three. What's more, what they are racing against now is time. Ning Weidong doesn't have the time to argue with Lu Xuesong to save money. He wants to cut the Gordian knot and see immediate results. At this moment, even Zhang Dajun was shocked, staring with wide eyes at the yellow croaker on the bedside table that was shining golden under the light. He remembered that he had just gone home with Ning Weidong and asked him to wait outside for a while. Ning Weidong went in and came out of the yard in less than two minutes. He must have gone to get this. But... isn't this too exaggerated? How can a mere Lu Xuesong have a job, a house, and gold bars! Ning Weidong didn’t think much about it. Lu Xuesong was certainly not worth it, but Wang Kaifeng was at his peak! As long as Lu Xuesong can be turned into a deadly dagger that can stab Wang Kaifeng to death, he will be worth the price. Lu Xuesong didn't react at first. He looked at the bedside table. It took him seven or eight seconds to realize that it was a gold bar.

At the same time, he realized that it was given to him by Ning Weidong. He was speechless. He looked at the gold bar, then looked at Ning Weidong, back and forth several times, his breathing became heavy: "This~you give it to me too?" Ning Weidong said expressionlessly: "Of course, if you find it inconvenient, you can also exchange it for cash, four thousand yuan." Hearing this number, Lu Xuesong's heart beat faster. When his father was still alive, their family conditions were pretty good. His father earned 45 yuan a month and supported the whole family. His mother knew how to live and could save a little every month, but after more than ten years, she had only saved 500 yuan, which was almost all the family assets. Now Ning Weidong actually put a gold bar worth four thousand yuan in front of him. He didn't know the value of a large yellow croaker, but he had an idea of ​​four thousand yuan. With his current salary, he can’t earn that much even if he doesn’t eat or drink for ten years. With a "gulp" sound, Lu Xuesong swallowed his saliva, reached out to touch the big yellow croaker, but he hesitated and looked at Ning Weidong. Ning Weidong simply raised his hand, picked it up and put it in his arms. Lu Xuesong had never seen gold before and didn't know how to test whether it was real gold. He just heard from an old man that real gold would leave tooth marks when bitten, so he put the gold bar in his mouth and took a bite, regardless of whether it was dirty or not. Carefully, I saw the clear teeth marks on it. Lu Xuesong was certain of it, and he held the big yellow croaker tightly with both hands. He looked at Ning Weidong and Zhang Dajun again, his eyes burning with fire, and he gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Leader, what do you want me to do?" Seeing his attitude, Ning Weidong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Lu Xuesong is still greedy at this point, he can only make him drink a penalty wine when he refuses his toast. Some people are just stubborn. No matter how you talk to them nicely, they won't listen. They will only behave themselves if you slap them in the face. Fortunately, Lu Xuesong is not such a person. He is smart and knows when to advance and retreat. Ning Weidong lifted his buttocks and sat on the bed next to Lu Xuesong. He raised his hand to hug his shoulders and asked, "You are a smart man. You must have kept a backup plan for that matter, right?" (End of this chapter)
