"It seems that this foursome is a bit reckless."

Liu Xing said with a smile: "Then the new boss didn't care about them?" It stands to reason that employees like them can be fired directly. ”

Maeda shook his head and said with a wry smile: "How to say, the new boss is a hands-off shopkeeper to put it bluntly, and after taking over the factory completely, he will leave all the affairs to the factory director, and at the end of the year, he will send some bonuses and gifts; And the factory director is a good old man, as long as you don't make any big mistakes, then the factory director is unlikely to fire you, so although the foursome has fought with many people in the factory, but because it is other people who take the initiative to provoke, the factory director will basically be biased towards the side of the foursome... ”

Speaking of this, Maeda, who wanted to stop talking, looked around, and only whispered after making sure that there was no one around: "There is such a rumor in the factory, that is, the factory director sees the foursome as his son, because the factory director's son died a long time ago, and the reason for his death is likely to be a fight with others, after all, the factory director's son is also a gangster like us, but he became the gold medal fighter of his small group by virtue of his tall stature, As a result, because there were too many enemies, he was seriously injured by a sneak attack in one night, and finally died; So many people think that the factory director saw the shadow of his son from the body of the foursome, and the foursome themselves are orphans, so the director subconsciously regards them as his own sons. ”

At this time, Satoshi Hashimoto on the side also stood up and added: "That's right, I've also heard this rumor, and I remember that in the group photo taken by the factory last year, the factory director specially arranged for the foursome to stand behind him, looking like his bodyguards." ”

Hearing Satoshi Hashimoto say this, Liu Xing's mind flashed with a flash of inspiration, and he thought of a possibility - the factory director and the Benzhong foursome are both members of the public faction, and the Benzhong foursome are indeed the factory director's bodyguards!

In order to verify his conjecture, Liu Xing contacted KP Broken Bridge and gave his own answer, "KP, just now you asked me to choose whether to believe Satoshi Hashimoto's words, and my answer is to believe, so can you tell whether this answer is right or wrong?" ”

"Hehe, Liu Xing, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

KP Broken Bridge sneered and said, "I'm sure it's impossible for me to tell you if this answer is right or wrong, because this optional quest is not as simple as you think." ”

After saying this, KP broke the bridge and turned on the mode of playing dead.

Seeing that he couldn't get an answer from KP Broken Bridge, Liu Xing could only open his mouth and ask Maeda, "I see, Maeda, can you tell me what kind of person your factory director is?" Does he have any special stories about how he used to be a thug like you? ”

"No, no, no, Mr. Meteor, you are wrong to think so, you must know that the factory director is a top student, who once studied at Keio University, but because the economic bubble was punctured that year, his company's company went bankrupt and closed down, so the factory director's parents chose to leave this world, and the factory director had no money to pay tuition, and even had no money for food, so he had to reluctantly choose to drop out of school, and then came to work in this natural gas tank plant."

"At that time, the business of natural gas tanking plants was very good, after all, the natural gas pipelines had not yet entered every household at that time, so many families would choose to use canned natural gas; However, at that time, there were a lot of natural gas tanking plants near Nagoya, so the competitive pressure was very high, which led to the previous factory director being tired of cerebral congestion due to excessive pressure, so he had to change to a new factory director to preside over the overall situation. ”

"After the factory director took office, because of his age, he was still questioned by many people, so he began to go to the urban area of Nagoya to run business, and in conjunction with the corresponding preferential activities, he increased the monthly sales of our factory by 60%, which can be said to be a miracle when the economy was in a recession, and since then the words of the factory director have gradually disappeared; In this way, more than ten years have passed, and the factory director has been working diligently in the factory, of course, during this time he also married a wife and had children, and his life was very happy... Perhaps the only flaw is that the factory director dotes on his son too much, and because of the lack of discipline for his work, he leads astray. ”

"So, ten years ago, the incident I just said happened, and the factory director's wife had a heart disease, so after learning that his son was seriously injured, and soon after the news that he was seriously injured, the factory director's wife collapsed, and died after lying in bed for five years, so the current factory director is already a lonely person, and this series of accidents has also made the factory director live in his office in order to stay away from his sadness. . . ."

In the end, Maeda couldn't help but sigh again, "The factory director is a very good person, he treats us employees equally, anyone who has any difficulties can go to him to solve, as long as he can do it, he will not shirk, but unfortunately fate still treats him too badly." ”

Liu Xing sighed, and a slightly sad expression appeared on his face, but Liu Xing sounded the alarm to the factory director in his heart!

In Liu Xing's opinion, there is at least a fifty percent probability that this factory director will be a member of the public faction!

In that era when information was not developed, it was very easy to fake a person's experience, you just had to put the stories you heard from the people around you on your own head, so no one can guarantee that the story of the factory director before entering the factory is true, and in Liu Xing's opinion, if the factory director really studied at Keio University, then as long as his grades are not too bad, he should be able to apply for a bursary, and then he can find a better job as long as he finishes his studies on a part-time basis. It's much better than him going straight to the factory to work.

What's more, at a prestigious private university like Keio University, the network of relationships between students should not be underestimated, so as long as the director still has a few friends, whether he accepts the help of his friends to continue to study at the university, or goes to work in a place introduced by friends, isn't it better than coming to work at this natural gas tank plant?

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that the factory director came to work in this natural gas tank factory after dropping out of Keio University, and he highlighted two words - outrageous, so Liu Xing felt that he had to suspect that the factory director came to work in this factory for another purpose.

Then there is the reason for the factory director's superiority.

According to Maeda, there were many natural gas canning plants around Nagoya City at that time, so it can be determined that at this time in Nagoya City, the canned natural gas market has become saturated, and each factory has already demarcated its own territory, so if you want to increase sales by 60% in one month at a time, this is simply an impossible task, unless the discount at that time directly reaches the level of a game platform surnamed E in the future, that is, to lose money and make money. This can only be done to the extent that you lose money for every tank of natural gas sold.

But is it possible?

The owner of the gas tank factory is unlikely to agree to such an outrageous preferential plan unless he thinks he has a lot of money!

As for other preferential programs, Liu Xing really can't imagine what kind of fairy plan can increase sales by 60%, unless this factory director is also a player, using modern thinking to make a "gas coin", and let consumers recognize his value, and start not to stir-fry with natural gas, but directly start to fry natural gas...

This possibility is even more outrageous.

Therefore, Liu Xing suspects that 60% of the sales volume is provided by the forces behind the factory director, but Liu Xing still doesn't understand why the forces behind the factory director value this small natural gas canning plant, is there also a dream door in this natural gas canning plant?

But even if there is a gate of the dream realm, this force doesn't need to go to great lengths to support a factory director to control this factory, wouldn't it be good to just spend money to buy him?

Is it necessary to make this something that can be solved by pressing money?

Could it be that the forces behind the factory director can't even scrape together this money?

This made Liu Xing originally seventy percent sure that he fell directly to the third layer.

However, judging from what Maeda said before, the death of the factory director's son and wife should be a unilateral statement by the factory director, otherwise Maeda should have mentioned that "everyone in the factory has visited the factory director's son/wife and attended his/her funeral", after all, the factory director's reputation in the factory is so good, if these news are known to the employees in the factory for the first time, then they will definitely spontaneously go to visit the factory director's family.

Therefore, Liu Xing is very suspicious that the factory director mentioned these things to the employees for a period of time "after the fact", and then he could move to live in the factory.

This made Liu Xing more confident than he was.

As for the final certainty, Liu Xing gave the foursome in this school.

The story of the foursome entering the factory in this middle school also stands out in Liu Xing's opinion.

As bodyguards, how could the Honchu foursome keep their money with their boss? And then let the people you need to protect run away?

The most important thing is that as four skilled bodyguards, they can find better jobs, why do they stay in the factory as ordinary workers?

Could it really be that the factory director is very charismatic and directly let the foursome in this middle school bow down?

Therefore, Liu Xing feels that the only reasonable explanation is that the Honchu Foursome themselves are here to protect the factory manager, but if Maeda and Hashimoto Satoshi are not lying, the Honchu Foursome have entered the factory a few years ago.

All in all, although Liu Xing felt that this factory director and the Quartet might be members of the Gongjia faction, he couldn't figure out why they appeared in this factory, but he was sure that these people didn't come because of the Gongwu War, after all, Liu Xing hadn't heard that the force had begun to plan the Gongwu War decades in advance.

It seems that there are secrets in this gas tanking plant that they do not know.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing smiled and asked, "By the way, Brother Maeda, why is the area around this factory so barren, are they afraid that the factory will explode so they don't dare to settle here?" ”

"You're right, who would choose to live next to a gas tanking plant? In the event of an explosion at the factory, none of the residents next to it will be able to escape. Maeda opened his mouth and complained: "Of course, another reason is that this place is too remote, and I got lost when I first came to the factory to report, because the path to the factory is not on the map at all, and if you are not careful, you will go directly, so I have been suggesting that the factory director add a street sign." ”

Liu Xing nodded and continued to ask: "That's right, if it weren't for Jeddah to drive, I don't think I would have been able to find this factory, but then again, don't you think it's inconvenient to come here to work?" There are no supporting facilities around, so you should bring your own lunch box for lunch at noon, right? After all, Maeda, didn't you just say that those old men would definitely not let people light fires in factories just to be on the safe side. ”

Hearing Liu Xing say this, Maeda and the two younger brothers next to him couldn't help but put on a helpless expression.

"Yes, those old men are not allowed to have any kind of open flame source in the factory, so we can only bring our own lunch to work, and we have to go to the factory director's office to line up at noon every day, because there is only a microwave oven in the factory director's office, and this is because the factory director can't eat cold, and the old men are willing to give in."

Maeda said a little depressed: "Mr. Meteor, you also know, a gangster like us is an old cigarette gun per capita, after all, for us who were not mature at the time, smoking means maturity, but after I went to work here, I quit smoking successfully, because as long as I dare to take out the lighter, then I will be beaten out of the factory by that group of old men, and I will not be allowed to come back if I don't lose the lighter." ”

"So Maeda, aren't you going to go out with us for a cigarette later?"

Faced with the temptation of Satoshi Hashimoto, Maeda forgot what he had just said very undisciplinedly, "Of course I want to go, I count on this cigarette to live every week." ”

After laughing twice, Liu Xing finally said the question he wanted to know the answer to the most, "Eh, I remember that there didn't seem to be a few cars parked in the parking lot, so Maeda, do you have a special car to pick you up?" If it's a private car, you should be home late this night. ”

Hearing Liu Xing say this, Maeda became even more depressed, "That's right, the employees in the factory are basically picked up by special cars, because it is too far from the city where we live to get here, and the fuel cost every month is a big expense, and... ”

Maeda stopped talking.
