Material Empire

Chapter 31 Drinking cold water can defeat the fire

"Qin Hai! Don't be glib, you will end badly if you fight against the factory!" Zhai Jianguo yelled hysterically. In his opinion, Qin Hai is really abominable, he dares to play tricks in front of him, the office director, and he can play tricks better than him.

Hearing Zhai Jianguo's clamor, Qin Hai burst out laughing: "Director Zhai, are you okay? Whether Qingfeng Factory will change the production of washing machines is a matter for your leaders to decide, so what does it have to do with me? I said switching production of washing machines It's a dead end, if you say my words are wrong, then you are wrong. Can a wrong word make you so nervous?"

"You have to rein in the precipice, otherwise... otherwise..." Zhai Jianguo was a little confused, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of any way to punish Qin Hai. Qin Hai has already reported for duty and is a real employee of a state-owned enterprise. As long as he doesn't make any serious mistakes, Qingfeng Factory has no right to fire him. There must be a clear reason for deducting wages and fines.

"Oh, Director Zhai, it seems that I really have to pour you some water." Qin Hai sighed, picked up his water glass, left Zhai Jianguo behind and went out the door. After a while, he came in from the outside with a glass of water, put the glass in front of Zhai Jianguo, and said, "Director Zhai, it's too hot, drink some water to suppress the fire."

Zhai Jianguo really made Qin Hai a little angry. Seeing Qin Hai handing over the cup, he didn't think too much about it, took the cup and drank it clean. The water Qin Hai brought was very clear, and Zhai Jianguo felt refreshed all over his body, but then he thought of an important question: "Qin Hai, where did you get this water from?"

"Water room." Qin Hai looked at Zhai Jianguo innocently and said.

"Fuck! You said this is tap water?" Zhai Jianguo said angrily, his eyes widened.

In subtropical provinces like Anhe, people have the habit of drinking cold water in summer. But in Pingyuan County, people have some taboos about drinking tap water. The reason is said to be that the water intake of the water company was blocked by a rotten dead pig one year. Half of them disappeared, presumably being pumped into a cistern and sent to thousands of households.

Although tap water has undergone countless disinfection and filtration treatments before leaving the factory, even if any dead pork is mixed in, it will eventually be filtered out. But after this rumor came out, everyone still said that they had indeed tasted of rotten meat from the tap water, and even more vividly said that they drank something that was suspected to be a piece of pork kidney...

Since then, people in Pingyuan County no longer dare to drink tap water directly. In a fit of rage, Zhai Jianguo was tricked by Qin Hai into drinking a glass of tap water. There was really no place to cry about his grievance.

"Director Zhai, I have good intentions. I think you are too angry, so I will bring you some cold water to defeat your anger..." Qin Hai explained solemnly.

"You, you, you...you are really unreasonable!" Zhai Jianguo stood up abruptly, pointed at Qin Hai, and stuttered a little. Thinking of the rumors about pork kidneys, he even wanted to go to the hospital for gastric lavage, so he couldn't sit still.

"I will definitely report your problem to the factory director's office meeting!"

Zhai Jianguo said a cruel word, and walked away. Qin Hai also had nothing to fear, taking Zhai Jianguo's threat as a breeze. He followed out with a smile, stood at the door and greeted: "Director Zhai, walk slowly, the stairs are a bit broken, be careful... Uh, it seems to be too late..."

There was only a muffled sound on the stairs, followed by Zhai Jianguo's scream and the sound of heavy objects rolling down the stairs. The residents in the single building were all alarmed, and ran out of the house one by one, talking a lot:

"Oh, who rolled down the stairs?"

"It seems to be Director Zhai..."

"Why did he come to the bachelor building?"

"Who knows..."

"Director Zhai, are you okay? Just lie down and don't move. I'll go to the clinic and call you a doctor..."

"Director Zhai, let me take you to the medical office with a bicycle..."

Hearing this commotion, Wang Xiaochen also came out of the house. She lifted the door curtain and met Qin Hai's eyes. She stared at Qin Hai with big beautiful eyes and asked, "Xiao Qin, what happened?"

"Director Zhai rolled down the stairs." Qin Hai said with a smile.

"How could he roll down the stairs?" Wang Xiaochen was a little puzzled.

Qin Haidao: "Maybe I want to go downstairs quickly..."

Hearing this nonsensical explanation, Wang Xiaochen burst out laughing, rubbed his stomach and laughed for a long time, then put away his smile, and said to Qin Hai: "Xiao Qin, Director Zhai just came out from you, right? Did you make him angry? Be careful, Director Zhai is not easy to talk to."

Qin Hai shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's none of my business whether he talks well or not. I'm just sitting in the room, but he came to blow my beard and stare at me, and expect me to be polite to him? I didn't kick him down the stairs myself. , is already very cultivated.”

Wang Xiaochen asked: "Why did Director Zhai come to you to blow his beard and stare? Did you do anything to make him unhappy?"

Qin Haidao: "I've never seen him before, who knows why he's crazy."

Zhai Jianguo came to challenge Qin Hai because he heard that Qin Hai had said some pessimistic words about the washing machine market, and these words just came from Wang Xiaochen. Wang Xiaochen was also worried about the future of the factory, so he told the other workers what he heard from Qin Hai, until it finally reached Zhai Jianguo's ears. Qin Hai didn't want to tell Wang Xiaochen the cause and effect, because it would make Wang Xiaochen feel psychological pressure.

Wang Xiaochen said: "Xiao Qin, you should be more careful. You have just arrived at the factory. Offending Zhai Jianguo is not a trivial matter. Director Wei trusts him the most. Offending him is equivalent to offending Director Wei."

Qin Hai sighed: "I don't want to mess with him either, but he bullied me, how can I bear him?...By the way, Xiaochen, I forgot something yesterday, the dagger we made together, And the engineer shovel, Fatty and I sold it. You also contributed, so I gave you five yuan."

As Qin Hai said, he took out the five yuan he had been allocated and handed it to Wang Xiaochen.

"I don't want it!" Wang Xiaochen quickly took two steps back as if seeing a piece of red-hot charcoal, and waved his hands again and again, "I didn't do anything, how can I take your money."

"Just take it." Qin Hai stepped forward, grabbed Wang Xiaochen's hand, and stuffed the money into her palm.

Wang Xiaochen has grown up so much that he has never been held by a man's hand before, so his face was flushed with shame for a moment, he forgot to refuse, and held the five yuan dumbly, not knowing what to say.

Qin Hai didn't think much about making this action. In the era before he traveled, it was normal for men and women to flirt and have skin-to-skin contact. Qin Hai was photographed more than once by female masters and doctors in the laboratory with their arms around their necks. Well, those rotten girls have always taken pleasure in male teachers whose breasts are older than theirs.

"The money is not much, you can keep it first, we will do other things in the future, and you come to help us, if you have money, everyone can earn it together." Qin Hai said.

It was very difficult for Wang Xiaochen to restore her flushed cheeks to normal color. At this time, it was not appropriate to return the money to Qin Hai. Besides, she didn't have the courage to hold Qin Hai's hand and stuff the money back.

"Then...then thank you, Xiao Qin." Wang Xiaochen said in an inaudible voice, with an inexplicable joy in his voice. She never thought that she could actually earn a fortune. Five yuan is a huge amount of money for a girl like her.

"You don't have to thank me, this is also your labor income." Qin Hai said with a smile.

It was Qin Hai's plan to pay Wang Xiaochen five yuan a long time ago. However, when he shared the money with Ning Mo and the others the first day, he forgot about Wang Xiaochen, and he only remembered it when he saw Wang Xiaochen today.

It was only four or five days since Qin Hai arrived at Qingfeng factory. Wang Xiaochen had never met him, but he took care of him everywhere. Qin Hai rubbed his dirty collar, just like a young lady, so Qin Hai has been thinking about finding an opportunity to repay Wang Xiaochen.

Over the past few days with Wang Xiaochen, Qin Hai found that Wang Xiaochen is a very frugal girl, she hardly goes to the cafeteria to eat, and cooks by herself every day, and the dishes are extremely simple, either a handful of water spinach, Either a few pieces of fermented bean curd in sauce, there is no meat at all.

Qin Hai asked other people sideways, and knew that Wang Xiaochen was a girl recruited from the countryside. After being paid every month, more than half of it would be taken home, leaving only a small amount to maintain her own life. As a 20-year-old girl, she couldn't even afford a box of "colorful" cream, so she could only use clam shell oil that cost 2 cents a box to paint her face and hands.

After knowing this situation, Qin Hai wanted to help Wang Xiaochen find some opportunities to make money. This time, he asked Wang Xiaochen to help him to make the dagger because he needed some equipment from the laboratory. Now that the dagger was sold at a high price, it was only natural to pay Wang Xiaochen some money.

"Hey, by the way, Qin Hai, you didn't turn on the water, did you? I have some extra boiled water here, you can use it." Wang Xiaochen earned five yuan in extra money, and the joy and gratitude in his heart were intertwined. Know how to express it. After being dazed for a while, she finally thought of giving Qin Hai some boiled water, which was the only way this frugal girl could find to thank her.
