The tense atmosphere spread throughout the steel rolling mill, and even ordinary workers felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
Even when eating in the cafeteria at noon, the chatter was much quieter.
The meals for the people in the office building were brought in by people from the security department. Even if they were eating, they were not allowed to leave the office building. Dark clouds shrouded the sky above the office building.
Everyone is under tremendous pressure.
In the afternoon, Team Wang and Erdanzi returned to the factory one after another. Ye Haoran was chatting with Team Wang about the information they had investigated. Team Wang had already figured out the details of Accountant Wang. There was basically no problem. He was very honest on weekdays. The living conditions at home have improved recently.
Ye Haoran also discovered that apart from the funds in the accounts, there were also some major or minor problems in other account books in the accounting office.
"Yi Zi, I don't know much about accounting. You said that Accountant Wang can't handle such a huge amount of money by himself."
Team Wang held a cigarette in his mouth and looked at Ye Haoran. Ye Haoran nodded and said: "I can't do it alone. At least Director Sun has a problem. Without the leader's signature, these bad debts can't be passed. Only in this way can we deceive the senior management. I Erdanzi has been asked to invite Director Sun, and he should be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Erdanzi ran in in a hurry.
"Ye Ye is in trouble, Director Sun has run away!"
Team Wang and Ye Haoran looked at Erdanzi who was sweating profusely at the same time, and then turned to look at each other.
It's okay now. Just now, the two of them were still researching whether they had any accomplices. Now they are just hammering away.
"Have you heard about Director Sun's whereabouts?"
After wiping his sweat, Erdanzi took a big sip of boiled water and then gasped: "I asked around. Yesterday, a neighbor saw him. He seemed to have heard that he was going to Jichun to visit some relatives. Director Sun's lover's hometown is in the Northeast. He left two months ago, probably to find his lover."
Ye Haoran tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a moment before speaking: "Captain Wang, I think Director Sun has been planning to come here for a long time. I'm afraid he is going to run away this time. The direction is northeast. There is a high probability that he is going to Lao Maozi." there."
At this time, the international situation was changing rapidly, and there was a big rift in the relationship between China and the Soviet Union. Despite this, people-to-people exchanges were still very close, so Ye Haoran concluded that Director Sun would most likely go north.
Team Wang turned his head and asked Erdanzi: "Do you know the specific address?"
Erdanzi shook his head: "When the neighbor was chatting, he only mentioned Jichun, and didn't give too detailed an address."
"It's difficult to handle now. Finding him in this situation is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
It is difficult to trace without clues, but Sun Chu has no time to wait for his journey north, and he will definitely leave the country if it takes too long.
Just when Team Wang and Ye Haoran were at a loss, Erdanzi suddenly said: "Sun Chu is an old man in the factory. Although there is no detailed file in the archives, there is someone who should know about his situation."
"Hmm? Who is it?"
"Major shareholder Lou Bancheng!"
When Erdanzi said this name, Ye Haoran remembered that he had heard someone mention this capitalist earlier. If Sun Chu was recruited by Lou Bancheng and was in such an important position, he would probably be able to know something about him personally. Condition.
"Time waits for no one, let's go now."
Ye Haoran got up and packed up before heading off to find Lou Bancheng. Captain Wang suddenly said: "Yi Zi, wait a minute. After all, Lou Bancheng is still the major shareholder of the steel rolling mill. It's not good to come directly. Let's go." Ask Director Yang to help introduce you."
After listening to Captain Wang's suggestion, Ye Haoran thought about it and nodded in agreement.
The two came to Director Yang's office together. At this time, Director Yang was writing something. When he saw the two people coming in, he stood up politely and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, how are the problems in the accounting office going? "
Team Wang turned to signal to Ye Haoran, who said: "Director Yang, Director Sun in the accounting office has a big problem. A large amount of money has been lost. It is very likely that Director Sun's problem is his, and he has run away now. , we came here hoping to learn some information so that we can arrest him more easily."
"Oh? What's going on?"
Factory Director Yang thought it was just a small amount of money that had been embezzled, but he didn't expect that it turned out to be a large amount of money, and his expression immediately became serious.
Ye Haoran said: "Director Sun's neighbor said that he went to Jichun in the northeast. Do you know the detailed address of Director Sun's lover Jichun's home?"
Factory Director Yang recalled carefully and finally shook his head: "Although we have a lot of contacts in daily life, most of them are due to work relationships and we rarely talk about personal issues."
"In this case, I wonder if it would be convenient for Factory Director Yang to introduce Director Lou. I think he should know something about it."
"No problem, let's set off now."
No leader wants to leave a stain on his or her file. Although Director Yang also has a background, it does not mean that he is willing to watch the steel rolling mill go downhill, so Ye Haoran agreed to the request without thinking.
Due to time constraints, Factory Director Yang also used the only jeep in the factory. The driver took the car and took Ye Haoran, Team Wang and the other four people towards the city.
This is the first time Ye Haoran has made a jeep since he came here. There is no comfort at all. The only advantage is that it is much faster than walking.
Soon we came to a residential compound, which looked very high-end and had guards at the door.
After expressing his intention, Director Yang took Ye Haoran and Captain Wang into Director Lou's home.
As expected of being called Lou Bancheng, the decoration of the home is very luxurious, and there are many antique books and Western goods. Even the sofa is a large European leather sofa, showing the style of a capitalist.
It's a pity that he doesn't know what it means to be low-key. Things that seem to be beautiful now will be reminders in the future.
"Ouch, why does Lao Yang have time to come over today!"
Lou Bancheng's full name is Lou Zhenhua. The steel rolling mill was his former enterprise. It was later state-owned but he can still hold the position of director. He must have some ability.
He warmly greeted Director Yang to sit down, then looked at Captain Wang and Ye Haoran and asked, "Old Yang, who are these two?"
"Oh, let me introduce to you. These two are from the security department of our steel rolling mill. We need to come here to understand the situation because of something. I'm afraid they won't be able to enter Director Lou's house. Why don't we bring them here to show them the way?"
"Oh?" Lou Zhenhua raised his eyebrows. He was not an ordinary citizen who didn't know anything. The fact that he could come directly to the security department showed the seriousness of the matter.
Sitting on the sofa, he shouted into the room: "Honey! We have a guest, come out and make a pot of tea!"
"Busy! Let the moth soak!"
A strong female voice came from the room, and then a girl in her twenties came out.
"Dad, my mother can't hold the needle in her hand. Let me do it."
With her round face and lotus leaf head, fair and tender skin, and clear stupidity in her eyes, she looked like a wealthy lady at first glance.
As if she felt someone was watching her, the young girl turned around and found that it was Ye Haoran. Although he was good-looking, he looked at someone like this for the first time when they met, which made her a little angry. After a glare, she turned around and went to the kitchen with the teapot. .
Lou Zhenhua smiled and said: "Don't mind, everyone. This is my beloved daughter Lou Xiao'e. She has been spoiled since she was a child. Let's just get down to business."
Factory Director Yang smiled and agreed, then turned to Ye Haoran and said, "Xiaoye, just tell the truth. Director Lou is also a sensible person."
Although Director Yang is now the top leader in the factory, Director Lou's position is not low, and he secretly funded it during liberation. It is normal to maintain a good relationship without conflict.
Ye Haoran nodded: "Director Lou, you must know that Director Sun of the Accounting Office planned to withdraw funds from the factory two months ago and used the method of reporting false accounts to secretly operate tens of thousands of yuan in funds. , Director Sun has already rushed to Jichun, I wonder if you know the information about Director Sun’s lover’s family.”
Director Yang and Lou Zhenhua were both shocked when they heard this figure. Tens of thousands of yuan is already the total fiscal revenue of a district. Compared with the national level, it can be said to be a drop in the bucket, but when it comes to an individual, it is simply a sum of money. An unimaginable amount of money.
Even he, Lou Bancheng, dare not say that he can easily take out tens of thousands of dollars.
"The tea is ready!"
Lou Xiao'e came back with a pot of tea and placed it directly on the table without any intention of pouring tea.
Lou Zhenhua was still in shock and was thinking about what was going on. He didn't notice that Director Yang was the nominal leader. Naturally, it was difficult for him to pour tea. So Ye Haoran took the initiative to pick up the teapot and poured tea into each cup. .
Unexpectedly, Lou Xiao'e was the first to pick it up, put it to her mouth, blew on it, took a sip, and nodded pretendingly, not sure whether she was praising Ye Haoran or herself.
Ye Haoran was a bit dumbfounded by this, but he had business matters now and had no time to tease her, so he could only pretend not to see her.
At this time, Lou Zhenhua also recovered and sighed heavily.
"Old Sun is really... ugh!"
"Director Lou, if there is anything else I hope you can tell me directly, if the delay is too long, Director Sun will probably continue to go north."
Ye Haoran looked at Lou Zhenhua while holding tea.
What about the directors of the steel rolling mill? He didn't even pay attention to Director Li's second in command. You have the money and I have the power.
Seeing that Ye Haoran was so rude to her father, Lou Xiao'e quit, stared at Ye Haoran and said angrily: "You are so uneducated..."
"Moth, don't be unreasonable. I'm here to handle the case."
"snort!"
After Lou Bancheng yelled, Lou Xiao'e shut her mouth, but the murderous look in her eyes was still aimed at Ye Haoran.
Ye Haoran blinked and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Seeing this scene, Lou Xiaoe was so angry.
No one noticed the little moves between the two of them in private. Lou Zhenhua sighed and then continued: "Old Sun has been with me for a long time. From a poor and stupid boy to getting married and having children, to the current director, I have always been... Okay, why can’t I think about it?”
Ye Haoran didn't urge him anymore, he just looked at Lou Zhenhua with Captain Wang.
"I know the address of his home, but it was many years ago. I don't know whether he moved later or not. I can only find out after you go there."
"Thank you. As long as there is a target, it will be fine. If it doesn't work, we can also ask the relevant local departments to assist in the investigation."
"Okay, that's it. That's all I know. I'm a little tired. Mozhu can send it to me."
The old brother made a mistake, Lou Zhenhua must feel very unhappy, but this is not something Ye Haoran should consider. He only cares about whether he can catch Director Sun.
Lou Zhenhua returned to the bedroom. Director Yang, Captain Wang and Ye Haoran were about to leave. As soon as they walked out of the door, Lou Xiao'e who was walking to the door suddenly shouted to Ye Haoran's back: "Hey, you rude boy, what is your name?" name?"
Ye Haoran looked left and right, then stretched out his finger to Lou Xiao'e, pointing at himself and looking at him in confusion.
Lou Xiao'e nodded: "Yes, I'm talking about you."
"Ye Haoran, Miss Lou, do you have any advice?"
"No advice, huh, I just want to know who you are, so don't take it out of my hands, or else you will look good!"
I don’t know whether Lou Xiao’e was laughing or threatening, but she closed the door after finishing speaking.
Captain Wang on the side smiled and said: "It's great to be young, especially good-looking young people."
Ye Haoran also laughed, but didn't take it to heart. It was just a small episode.
After a few people returned to the factory, the subsequent actions had nothing to do with Director Yang. Team Wang and Ye Haoran could just do it together.
"There must be a caretaker in the factory. I'm old and can't do the hard work anymore. This task may have to be handed over to you."
Captain Wang lit his cigarette, looked at Ye Haoran and said with a smile.
In terms of ability, Team Wang is very confident in Ye Haoran, and at his age, he no longer wants to compete, and he is fine at home.
It just so happened that the boss was very optimistic about Ye Haoran, and it was a credit to be able to make a fortune.
Ye Haoran nodded: "Captain Wang, don't worry, I will definitely bring the person back."
"You take two people with you. I will contact the boss later and ask him to arrange for you to catch a train and go back to clean up. Go early rather than late. Go early and come back early."
"Okay, Team King."
Ye Haoran agreed with Team Wang's opinion, packed up and prepared to go home to pick up two pieces of clothes.
It's great to be able to catch a train, but if you take a truck, it will be very slow, not to mention dangerous. The road conditions are not good at this time, and the truck is very overloaded. Needless to say, the degree of danger is very high.
If you buy a ticket and get on the train, you have to provide a lot of supporting documents and approval slips, which is quite troublesome. It will be much easier if the boss comes forward.
The work in the factory was left to Team Wang to prepare, while Ye Haoran went home to pack his luggage and prepare to go out. Although he didn't know the specific time, he thought it wouldn't be too late.
While packing his luggage, Qin Huairu walked in.
"I heard something happened in the factory?"
Ye Haoran raised his eyebrows: "How did you know?"
Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Jia Dongxu's vacation has expired. He was supposed to go to work today, but he saw that the factory gate was guarded by soldiers, so he didn't dare to go in."
After listening to Qin Huairu's explanation, Ye Haoran nodded.
Jia Dongxu's laziness is something he can do.
Lowering his head and continuing to pack his luggage, Qin Huairu asked suspiciously after seeing it: "What are you doing?"
"Going on a business trip for a few days, I'll come back to pick up two pieces of clothing."
Qin Huairu didn't ask any more questions, but briefly explained the all-hands meeting held by the three uncles yesterday, saying that Ye Haoran's family had special circumstances and could lock the door.
After hearing this, Ye Haoran chuckled and said: "It's up to him to decide whether I lock the door or ride a horse. I don't have time to talk to him now. When I come back, let's see how I deal with this old Bi Deng."
"puff"
Hearing Ye Haoran's curse, Qin Huairu couldn't help laughing.
Ye Haoran tied up the package, turned around and glared: "Why are you laughing!"
"It's not enough to laugh!"
The private relationship between the two continued to deepen, but they only maintained the superficial neighborly relationship. Ye Haoran even felt that Qin Huairu was not very resistant.
Ye Haoran also laughed and said, "I'm going on a business trip for a few days, shouldn't you do something?"
Regardless of whether Qin Huairu minded or not, Ye Haoran pulled her over. Just when he was about to do another dental care, Jia Dongxu's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Qin Huairu! What are you having for dinner?"
Hearing Jia Dongxu's voice, Qin Huairu quickly took Ye Haoran's hand out and straightened her clothes.
"Hey, brother Ye is at home!"
Ye Haoran nodded: "I'm going out for a few days. Tell Sister Qin to take home the food and eat it. Don't worry about it."
"Oh, that's such a good relationship!" Jia Dongxu became happy when he heard that there was free food again. Then he thought of something and turned around and said, "You can't refund the food money you spent these days when you go out! "
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes, what does it have to do with him to make money by cooking.
Ye Haoran didn't bother to talk to him.
After happily returning home with Ye Haoran's vegetables and a small piece of meat, Ye Haoran and Qin Huairu were no longer in the mood to continue.
Glancing at Qin Huairu, Ye Haoran chuckled and said, "Jia Dongxu, who is causing trouble, I will take care of him sooner or later."
"Thank you!"
Qin Huairu didn't take it seriously, thinking that Ye Haoran was speaking out of anger, he laughed and left Ye Haoran's home.
Ye Haoran also returned to the factory again with his packed luggage, ready to go to Jichun to find Director Sun.
