Volume 5, The Three Realms of the Stars and the Moon_Chapter 37, The Steel Mill
I thought there was no one in this steel mill, and I thought about going in and walking around, but I didn't expect to be discovered just after entering! The little old man in uniform looked like a security guard at the steel mill, and shouted when he saw the former Li Yulang. I thought about being found and ran quickly, but the brain circuit of the grandson of the former Li Yulang is different from that of normal people, he not only did not run but walked up, and saw the little old man muttering a few words, I looked inside through the wall, at first the two people were a little excited, but I don't know what the former Li Yulang said It didn't take long for the old man to be quiet, and after the two of them talked for a while, the former Li Yulang also gave the little old man opposite a cigarette, and then turned his head and waved at me.
I wondered, why did this kid fool the old man in a few words? The little old man also took the initiative to open the door for me, and as soon as he walked in, Li Yulang said to me with a smile: "It's done." ”
"How did you get it?" I asked curiously.
"Oh, this little old man is one of the last employees here, and he says it's been abandoned for a long time and there are basically no people. The salary is not high, so I am not happy to be employed here. "I want to say that Japanese people have a lot of loyalty to the company, and they basically treat the company as their home, and Japanese companies are keen to create an atmosphere where life, old age, sickness and death are in one company.
"I told him that you are a big entrepreneur who came to Japan from China to invest and wanted to come and see this steel mill. It is possible that he bought this place, and he also informed the owner of the steel mill and promised him that if we bought the steel mill, he would give him a salary increase in the future. Nowadays, there are many elderly people like us in Japan who are single and have no children, and there is no good guarantee for the future, so if there is a large enterprise with security as the backing, then he will naturally be happier in his old age in the future. ”
As we were talking, the little old man looked excited and walked into the phone booth, presumably calling the boss. I thought it was very likely that the owner of the steel mill was the one who made the bead, so I discussed it with the former Li Yulang, and if the other party was really the one who made the bead, then we would act on the opportunity, and if the other party wanted to run, we would do it directly. He blocked the entrance and exit, and I took the other side down.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, a small truck drove into the steel mill, and the former Li Yulang hurriedly said: "The old man said, it was their boss's car." ”
I nodded and gave the former Li Yulang a look, and then I looked up and saw a man walking down from the minivan, the Japanese man in front of me was about thirty years old, wearing a not too high-end suit, and smiled slightly when he saw us. From his appearance, it can be seen that this boss's life is not very smooth. The suit is obviously a little wrinkled, and it can be seen that I don't usually wear it, so I guess I hurried over after receiving a call today. It's not a good car, and this kind of small car with cargo is indeed a bit cheaper for the owner of a business. Although the hair was combed, it was still messy, and there was more worldly desolation between the eyebrows.
"Brother Shan, how is it?" Former Li Yulang asked me in a low voice.
"Hmm...... It looks like an ordinary person. "I didn't see the flow of qi in the other party's body, and the man in front of me who walked over with a smiling face was actually an ordinary person.
"No......" The former Li Yulang didn't have my eyesight, and of course he believed my words, and when he heard me say that the person in front of him was not the one who refined the bead, he wondered.
"You talk to him first, and I'll observe."
The former Li Yulang didn't say anything more when he heard it, and stepped forward and began to chat with the boss of the steel mill. I sat and nodded in cooperation from time to time, but after watching for a while, I was almost certain that he was indeed mortal. Soul refining beads are not just a casual mortal who can pick them up according to a certain score and find them, the more powerful the magic weapon refining and building people, the higher the level of the person. Take the old-timer I met on Zhongnan Mountain in the past, that person's cultivation is not weaker than mine at all, when I first met him, he was definitely a first-class master even if he didn't have the cultivation of an earth immortal.
The evil bead we got in the Japanese park is first-class at first glance, much stronger than the one made in the domestic black market, with such good craftsmanship, how bad can my cultivation be?
"Brother Shan, it seems that that person is indeed not the one who refined this bead." The former Li Yulang walked back and said a little depressedly.
"Asked?" I said.
"Well, I knocked on the side, but he didn't seem to know anything about our circle. I think maybe our information is wrong, or let's go back today. "The former Li Yulang suspects that his information is wrong, and today it seems that he is going to run for nothing. I nodded, there really wasn't any need to spend any more time here right now.
After the two sides pretended to say a few words, we were about to leave, after all, the little old man opened the door for us, and the person was quite kind, so I should also say thank you. Turning my head, I nodded slightly at the little old man, who hurriedly waved his hand at me, but this wave of his hand attracted my attention. The little old man's hands looked very rough, and they were full of calluses, and we hadn't paid attention to them before. Why does a little old man who has been a security guard for so many years have a pair of hands that are rougher than a farmer? This aroused my suspicions, but on the surface I left the steel mill with the former Li Yulang.
"Where are we going next? Why don't you find a place to eat and head back to Tokyo? The former Li Yulang spoke.
"You go buy some dry food, I'll wait for you in the alley opposite."
"Huh? What is this for? Seeing that I seemed to be spying on the steel mill, the former Li Yulang immediately asked strangely.
"I think there might be something wrong with the old janitor, don't talk nonsense and go buy it."
The two of us stayed outside the steel mill like this, and stayed until the evening, watching the sky around us getting darker, Qianli Yulang yawned and muttered: "Brother Shan, I think it's better to go back, you think too much." ”
But at this moment, the lights in one of the workshops of the steel mill suddenly turned on!
"Why is the workshop lit up so late?" As soon as the former Li Yulang saw the lights in the workshop turned on, he suddenly became strange, and looked at his watch, it was now half past seven in the evening. It was originally a semi-abandoned steel mill with no workers to work, could it be that there were still people who came to work at night?
"Hehe, it seems that there is a cat, let's continue to see what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd." Former Li Yulang and I continued to wait in the dark night, but we didn't wait long, and about ten minutes later, a small black car drove quietly to the side of the steel mill and stopped, and I saw several people get out of the car. Looking closely, these people were all men in black suits, and they also looked around vigilantly, and I hurriedly pulled the former Li Yulang to hide his figure so as not to be discovered.
At this point, what we thought was an ordinary steelmaking mill is now a little weird. It didn't take long for us to see a man come out of the steel mill, at first I couldn't see clearly, but when this man walked under the street lamp, we could see that the person who came out was the little old man who was the doorman.
At this time, the little old man was holding a small box in his hand, and he looked a little strange, looking a little tired. After the two sides met, they were doing something unseemly, first the other party handed over a bag, and the little old man opened it and looked at it before handing the black box to the other side. A man in a suit took it and turned and walked to the black cart. It seems that there is someone sitting in the black car, and this black box is shown to this person.
Then both seemed satisfied, and the business was over.
When everyone returned to the cart and was about to leave, I patted the former Li Yulang and said, "You have to find a way to keep up with the black cart and figure out where they are going, and I will stay to see what medicine this little old man sells in his gourd." ”
The former Li Yulang nodded and walked out of the back of the alley, while I slowly walked towards the steel mill.
There was no one in the doorman room of the steel mill, but the workshop that had just turned on the lights was still on, and I walked to the workshop and looked through the glass window, and saw that there were a lot of strange materials on the machine tools in the workshop, and the little old man was sitting on the side and smoking, with the bag that the people had just handed over.
After a few moments, I pushed straight through the door of the car, and the little old man glanced at me at the voice, and was not too surprised, apparently he had expected me to appear.
