Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 324 Wild Boar Boar

Sure enough, not long after, Section Chief Ge... no... Director Ge came with Lou Xiao'e.

"He Lai, this is Comrade Lou Xiao'e. From today on, she will be assigned to your third department."

"Uh...Okay, Uncle Ge." He Lai knew that he couldn't refuse this kind of thing, so he could only agree.

"Okay, then I'll withdraw and leave her to you." Seeing that He Lai had no objection, Director Ge said goodbye and left. After all, this was a hot potato.

He Lai and Lou Xiao'e were the only ones left in the office.

"Um...Comrade Lou Xiao...Comrade Lou Xiao'e, do you know anything about the work of our technical department?"

He Lai asked.

"It's okay, I understand a little bit." Lou Xiao'e had learned about it before coming.

"Okay, come with me, I'll find someone to take care of you."

"Can't you take me?"

"Uh... I can't take you with me. Sorry, I have a lot to do!" He Lai said speechlessly. That's wishful thinking. If I take you with me, I will live ten years less. He Lai didn't believe that Lou Xiao'e knew anything about mechanics. At most, she knew what kind of machine it was.

"Oh, okay." Lou Xiao'e also knew that it was impossible for him, a section chief, to come and lead her.

"And that, Comrade Lou Xiao'e..."

"You should just call me Xiao'e instead of calling me comrade all the time."

Lou Xiao'e interrupted He Lai.

"Uh...Okay, Xiao'e, remember to wear work clothes when you go to work next time. You're wearing too much ostentatious clothes. After all, this is a steel mill, a state-owned unit. This won't have a good influence on your father, you know?"

He Lai still reminded Lou Xiao'e that after all, once she entered the steel rolling mill, she would no longer be a rich lady.

"Oh, I understand. I'll change it tomorrow." After hearing what He Lai said, Lou Xiao'e realized that her clothes were indeed not suitable for the factory.

Soon He Lai took Lou Xiao'e to Technical Department 3 and found Shen Dandan.

"Sister Dandan, this is Comrade Lou Xiao'e. She was just assigned to our technical department today. Please take care of her."

He Lai quietly handed over a piece of chocolate, fearing that Shen Dandan would refuse. After all, there were not many female students in the third technical department, and Shen Dandan was the best among them.

"Okay." Shen Dandan took the chocolate with a smile and agreed directly. After all, her job was relatively simple. Now that the new employees had basically joined the company and had been assigned to various workshop masters, she returned to the office to do some clerical work.

"That's good. That... Comrade Lou Xiao'e, you should study with Comrade Shen Dandan from now on. Comrade Shen Dandan is one of the best technicians in our technical department. You should study hard. You can sit next to Shen Dandan so that it will be convenient for you to study."

He Lai directly arranged Lou Xiao'e next to Shen Dandan.

"Okay, I understand." When Lou Xiao'e saw that it was a woman teaching her, all her previous worries were immediately dispelled.

He Lai saw that everything was arranged, and both of them left without any objection.

He Lai didn’t know what was going on with Lou Bancheng. Didn’t he ask him to leave? Why did he send Lou Xiaoe to the steel mill?

Little did he know that Lou Bancheng had no choice. It would take time to transfer his property. After all, the people above him were keeping an eye on him. He couldn't move his property as he pleased. He had to seize the opportunity. Half a year had passed, and Lou Bancheng had only transferred a small portion of his hidden assets.

As for Lou Xiao'e, ever since she last went to the library, she had the idea of ​​going to the steel rolling mill. After all, it was too boring. Now Lou Xiao'e is restricted wherever she goes.

After Lou Xiao'e's repeated requests, Lou Bancheng finally agreed to her idea of ​​working in the steel mill. After all, working in the steel mill is much better than letting Lou Xiao'e go out and play.

Soon after get off work, He Lai went to Fengze Garden. Manager Cui was already waiting for He Lai in the kitchen. Hearing that He Lai could get ten tons of pork, he was very happy and had been waiting for He Lai all day.

"Xiao Laizi, you're finally here!" Manager Cui saw He Lai coming and immediately went to greet him.

"Uncle Cui, what's the big deal? Where is the truck? I'll get it for you now!"

"No hurry, no hurry, the price hasn't been announced yet!"

"Oh, Uncle Cui, how can you give me a lower price? I trust Uncle Cui."

"We have to make this clear first. After all, it's not your fault. I know meat is hard to buy now, not to mention pork that doesn't require a ticket. How about two yuan a pound? This is the highest price I can offer."

Manager Cui gave a price.

When He Lai heard this price, he thought it was already a good price. After all, pork was selling for 70 or 80 cents in the market, and two yuan would be fine without a ticket. Of course, the price on the black market was even higher, probably six or seven yuan. But He Lai didn't want to sell it as it would attract too much attention.

"Okay, thank you Uncle Cui."

"Uncle Cui should thank you. You thought of me even though you had meat. I got a great deal."

"Uncle Cui, let's go quickly, it will be dark if we get late."

"Okay, I'll take you there now. The truck is parked next to the warehouse in the back. When you come back, just park the car there."

After Manager Cui finished speaking, he took He Lai to the backyard.

Soon He Lai drove the truck around the mountains and released a few wild boars into the mountains.

Two hours later, He Lai put all the boar meat of thirty wild boars in the truck, which should have weighed ten tons, and returned to Fengze Garden.

"Uncle Cui, the pork is all here. I'll go back to the kitchen and ask the chef to make a few dishes to take back."

He Lai said with a smile.

"Okay, go ahead, go ahead. I asked someone to tie two boxes of foreign soda to your bicycle. Don't you like to drink this stuff?"

Manager Cui said with a smile.

"I see. Thank you, Uncle Cui."

He Lai said this and went to the kitchen with a big bag of pork offal.

Manager Cui immediately called his subordinates over and started moving the pork.

Manager Cui was stunned when he saw the slaughtered wild boar meat. These wild boars are quite big! They look like domesticated ones. Each one must weigh 400 kilograms! Forget it, forget it, let's not ask about it.

He Lai was giving massage to several masters. There was no other way. This pig offal was a good thing, so he had to let the masters prepare it well.

Master Zheng’s nine-turn large intestine is delicious enough. Master Hu made several pots of stewed pig intestines, and even Master Liao helped to braise the pig.

I have to say, this stewed pork belly tastes so good that He Lai’s mouth is full of it.

After a while, Manager Cui came over and handed a bag of money to He Lai.

"Xiao Laizi, the wild boar meat weighs 11,953 kilograms. I'll charge you 24,000 yuan. Is that okay?"

"No problem, Uncle Cui will calculate it." He Lai took the money nonchalantly.

"You'd better put it away. There's so much money here. If it doesn't work, I'll find someone to deposit it for you first."

Manager Cui was a little worried about He Lai holding the money like this. After all, it was a big bag of money. It would be troublesome if it was lost or robbed!

"It's okay, Uncle Cui, I'll go back now, and I have my weapon with me." He Lai lifted his coat, revealing the pistol on his waist.

"Okay, then I feel relieved. Just be careful on the road." Manager Cui felt much more at ease when he saw He Lai carrying a gun.

"But, Uncle Cui, this matter must be kept secret. If the steel mill finds out, I will be in trouble."

He Lai still gave a reminder.

"Don't worry, we won't let anyone else know." Manager Cui immediately assured.

"That's good. Ask the chefs to save the braised pig offal for me. I'll come get it tomorrow."

After He Lai finished speaking, he took the three lunch boxes and left. When he returned to the courtyard, the money had already been put into the space by He Lai.

"He Lai, why are you back so late? It has rained twice."

Aunt Qian opened the gate of the courtyard and said with a smile.

"I was chatting with my friend and forgot the time. Here, bring a bottle of soda to sweeten the kid's mouth."

"Thank you, Auntie." Aunt Qian took the soda and quickly thanked.

"You're welcome. I'm going back now."

He Lai pushed his bicycle into the backyard and found that Yu Shui was sitting at the door waiting for him.

"Brother Lai, why are you back so late? It's already dark."

Rain said unhappily.

"Didn't I ask your brother to tell you that I have to come back late today because of something else. Come on and help Brother Lai carry the soda. It's so heavy."

He Lai smiled bitterly and said that he had a little wife at home and he still had to explain.

"Oh." Yu Shui hurried forward and helped He Lai unload the soda.
