Chapter 317: He Was So Scared He Had Nightmares
Regarding this point, several cadres from the Neighborhood Committee did not raise any objections.
Now with supplies short, from north to south, no factory or enterprise has goods piled up that can’t be sold.
They are basically supplied according to plan, even defective products are handled internally, ordinary people have no connections to take backdoor routes, and can’t even buy defective products.
Lu Qiaoge stood up.
She said slowly: “So in that case, even if we request a reinvestigation, but the most important defective products leather shoes as evidence have all been destroyed, so reinvestigation has no meaning anymore, is that right?”
Director Guo smiled honestly and quickly waved his hand: “Cadre Lu, you can’t say it like that, that’s not what I meant, although the defective products have been destroyed, we can still investigate.
The workers in our workshop, the team leader workmate who had the most contact with Wei Xia, even I as the workshop director, you can all check.”
Lu Qiaoge looked deeply at Director Guo.
Many times what looks perfect and impeccable can absolutely be called abnormal.
A powerless little Wei Xia, it felt like Director Guo had handled this matter for her perfectly without any leaks.
He had considered every aspect.
But this was actually the biggest loophole.
Although Lu Qiaoge was not the type to support the weak just because they were weak, for Wei Xia, Lu Qiaoge trusted her own intuition more.
This woman didn’t have the courage to tell this kind of lie.
Because Wangjiang Shoe Factory was right in Jiangcheng, not at the edge of the world, if they wanted to investigate, it would take just minutes.
Not to mention the mistakes Wei Xia made, just Director Guo’s statement in the office notifying Wei Xia of her dismissal, he must have lied.
But as a dignified workshop director, did he need to lie about this?
Or even if it was a lie, he had no fear because no one could prove he lied?
Just like now no one could prove Wei Xia was telling the truth.
Otherwise why did Director Guo put on that helpless look?
If Wei Xia really came by herself, she would definitely return empty-handed.
This matter could only be left like this for now.
What was thought to be a simple matter turned out to be quite complicated.
It could be said, came in aggressively, left dejectedly.
This was something neither Sister Qiao nor Cadre Liu had expected.
But this matter couldn’t be delayed, after leaving Wangjiang Shoe Factory, Shao Le drove them back to the military factory.
First they went to find Du Wanqing.
Then they were told Du Wanqing hadn’t come to work, saying she took sick leave today.
Lu Qiaoge thought for a moment, still quietly called Xiao Cangcang in her heart.
“You go to Wangjiang Shoe Factory, find Director Guo of Workshop One, follow him.”
Xiao Cangcang happily agreed: 【Okay little master, I’ll go right now.】
Lu Qiaoge exhorted again: “You go find Rat Big and Rat Two, you several act secretly, almost no one can discover.”
After Xiao Cangcang flew away, Lu Qiaoge thought of Du Wanqing, and called Hua Hua and Old Black Cat, these two had followed Jiang Chusheng to his home last night.
Hua Hua came back very late, Lu Qiaoge hadn’t had time to ask.
Then Hua Hua ran out early in the morning again, not knowing where it was now.
Lu Qiaoge tried calling in her heart: “Hua Hua, where are you?”
Just about two minutes later, Hua Hua ran over, squatting on a big tree not far away, and said to Lu Qiaoge: 【Little master, why did you call me?】
Lu Qiaoge saw it came so fast, curiously asked: “Where were you just now?”
Hua Hua: 【I was at Jiang Chusheng’s home, haha, Jiang Chusheng was scared by me, Old Black Cat, Rat Big, and Rat Two last night, hahahahaha!】
Lu Qiaoge felt that now her telepathic communication with the little animals was almost as good as telephoning.
When there’s a chance, try the maximum distance.
After Hua Hua laughed enough, Lu Qiaoge also learned what happened at Jiang Chusheng’s home last night and this morning.
After Jiang Chusheng went back last night, he was muttering strangely, speaking incoherently.
Saying he encountered something eerie, saying that place used to be a mass grave, he seemed to have hit a ghost wall, saying Wei Xia wasn’t Wei Xia, even eldest daughter Qiqi was different from before, too scary.
He swore to Du Wanqing that he saw black shadows and yellow shadows, countless, innumerable, swishing swishing swishing flying past his eyes, but others insisted they didn’t see.
Although Du Wanqing cared more about why the money wasn’t gotten back, muttering strangely Jiang Chusheng had a nightmare in the middle of the night, which scared Du Wanqing, so she took sick leave today, but she lied, didn’t go to the hospital, just lying at home, Jiang Chusheng had gone to work.
Lu Qiaoge told Hua Hua and Grey Pigeon to go to Wei Xia’s home.
Also wanting to know if Wei Xia was lying.
After all, nothing in this world is 100 percent.
Return to the Neighborhood Committee to report this matter to Director Hu.
Director Hu thought it was just an ordinary dispute, didn’t expect it also involved a production accident.
He asked in surprise: “They handle defective products this fast?”
Then frowned: “What leather shoes, twenty pairs cost over two thousand yuan?”
One pair sells for over a hundred yuan?
Sister Qiao nodded: “Correct, I heard Wangjiang Shoe Factory’s best leather shoes for export sell for over a hundred yuan each.”
Even so, it should be at cost price.
Deputy Director Huang said on the side: “This depends on how it’s handled, if this batch of defective products requires Wei Xia to compensate, out of humanitarian spirit, the work unit won’t use retail price, but if it forms documents, it should be calculated by how much it can sell for.”
Old Hu didn’t speak after hearing.
No matter what goods, currently many factories handle it this way.
Lu Qiaoge said: “Let’s go to Wei Xia’s home, I have a few questions to ask her.”
Hearing this, Old Hu said: “You go quickly, don’t delay this matter, since our Neighborhood Committee has already intervened, it wouldn’t look good to withdraw dejectedly.
Moreover, there’s one more point, if Wei Xia really lied, she needs severe criticism and education, no matter what, lying can’t be allowed, this will add burden to our Neighborhood Committee cadres’ already heavy workload.”
So Shao Le drove the three to Wei Xia’s home again.
Lu Qiaoge checked the time, having a car is really convenient, several people ran around for a morning, now just after ten.
If riding bicycles, the three of them would probably need a whole day to complete this workload.
So when Qin Hengzhi comes back, she must learn to drive from him and get her driver’s license.
As Lu Qiaoge expected, Wei Xia’s face turned pale at that moment, her whole body trembling, looking at everyone in disbelief: “Is that so… is that so… I don’t know, let me think… it’s not like that, not like that at all!”
Lu Qiaoge held her hand, could understand her mood, because taking leave and being dismissed was forgivable, but if because of an accident, still over two thousand yuan loss, how could she not panic?
“Wei Xia sister, don’t worry, speak slowly.”
“Right, do you still remember exactly what happened with the twenty pairs of leather shoes handed to you?” Lu Qiaoge asked again.
