He was almost amused and overjoyed, "Little girl, go back quickly and stop making trouble here. This is not your place to play, and I won't argue with you anymore."
Seeing that he didn't take what she said seriously, Su Qingyun was not angry. He just smiled softly and said, "Director Xu, we will meet again."
"Hurry up, hurry up." Xu Wenjie waved his hand impatiently, feeling that he was being delayed.
Su Qingyun walked out of the brick factory gate calmly, and the security guard at the door stopped her.
"Leaving so soon?"
"Well." Su Qingyun rolled his eyes, "Hey, brother, you just said that all the county leaders who came to the meeting today are county leaders. Who are they?"
"I'm not sure about that." The security guard scratched his head and said, "There seems to be a deputy county magistrate, but I don't know the details."
"Okay, thanks."
Su Qingyun recalled that there were three deputy county magistrates in Luoshui County. Deputy County Magistrate Chen, whom she knew, was in charge of the agriculture and public security departments. The brick factory belonged to the production department and should not be under the jurisdiction of Deputy County Magistrate Chen.
But the official circles are all connected. Deputy County Magistrate Chen knew that it was not beyond his control, but Su Qingyun was a little hesitant about whether to trouble him about it.
She stood there hesitating. Seeing her appearance, the security guard asked casually, "What on earth are you doing in the brick factory?"
He was smart, so it wasn't like he couldn't tell that this girl was asking him for some information, but she wasn't here to buy bricks at all.
Su Qingyun looked at him, suddenly feeling blessed. She looked at the security guard who was looking on the other side, and whispered: "I just want to take a look at the production line of our brick factory and the bricks produced."
"What's so good about that?" the little security guard looked puzzled.
"It's like this. I know a little about identifying good bricks and bad bricks. I feel that the bricks in our village school are not quite right, so I want to compare them."
Su Qingyun took out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket and gave it to the security guard. She had specially prepared this cigarette just in case of emergency. The cigarette was not cheap. It was an imported cigarette that her father had brought back before.
The little security guard's eyes moved, he put away his cigarette, and the smile on his face became more obvious.
"What's wrong?"
Su Qingyun: "The bricks in our village were brought by Zhang Mengla as mentioned before. I suspect that he sold the defective products eliminated by the brick factory that failed the quality inspection to our village at the price of normal bricks."
"What? Is there such a thing?" The little security guard's eyes widened, "This is against the regulations of the brick factory. How dare he do this?"
"No, with Director Xu backing him up, that boy Zhang Meng will do these things." The little security guard said angrily, "No, we can't just let it go. I have to tell my uncle."
Su Qingyun's eyes were brighter. Isn't his uncle the deputy director of the brick factory? It is more useful to find the deputy director in the brick factory than the deputy county magistrate.
"You just want to compare whether the bricks are the same, right?" The security guard thought for a while and asked.
"Yes." Su Qingyun's voice was even lower, "Just now, your Director Xu took me to a remote warehouse, which contained the kind of defective bricks."
The security guard frowned, "So Director Xu deliberately asked Zhang Meng to take those bricks away?"
"I don't know about that." Of course Su Qingyun wouldn't say it so harshly.
The little security guard thought for a while and said, "I'll take you to see it."
"real?"
"Yes." The little security guard nodded, with a serious look on his face, "The brick factory selling defective products is very serious and must be investigated." If this spreads out, the brick factory's reputation will be affected, not to mention those who use defective products. How serious are the safety hazards of defective buildings?
"I'll take you to see it first, and then go to my uncle. You can explain the matter clearly."
"Okay." Su Qingyun said gratefully, "Thank you very much."
"Let's go."
The other security guard watched the two of them put their heads together and muttered for a long time, then walked back into the brick factory. He opened his mouth to say something, but finally closed his mouth.
Zhu Xing is the nephew of the deputy factory director, so he cannot offend him.
Zhu Xing took Su Qingyun directly to the production factory. There were piles of raw materials, including coal blenders, crushers, brick making machines and other large-scale production equipment. This was the first time Su Qingyun had seen it in this era. With a modern production chain.
The production process of red bricks is: making bricks, drying bricks, loading the kiln, firing the kiln, and leaving the kiln. The process is complicated. Countless workers are busy in an orderly manner. All links are closely connected. Everyone has red faces and red hair. There is even red brick powder in the ears and nostrils. From a distance, it looks like a funny terracotta warrior.
Zhu Xing took Su Qingyun directly to the last place out of the kiln. Neat red bricks were laid out neatly. The surface was relatively smooth, the texture was uniform, the color was light red, and there was almost no white residue. Su Qingyun stepped forward and knocked it. It was crisp and clear. metallic sound.
These were red bricks of acceptable quality, in stark contrast to the red bricks she had seen in warehouses and in the village.
Su Qingyun saw that there were workers sorting the bricks coming out of the kiln. Red bricks that looked unqualified to the naked eye were thrown directly into the big basket. Some were broken, and some were still intact.
She asked Zhu Xing, "What will happen to these unqualified red bricks? Will they stay?"
"Of course not. These are all unsuccessfully fired and will be sent to the crusher to become raw materials for re-firing." Zhu Xing explained.
Su Qingyun's eyes darkened. It seemed that the unqualified red bricks in the warehouse were secretly kept. Director Xu was really clever. Someone secretly left the bricks in the production side, and then someone was responsible for sales after leaving them. Go out, this is a complete reselling chain.
"Xiaoxing, what are you doing here during work hours?"
The two of them were watching in trance when a confused voice sounded from behind.
Su Qingyun turned around and saw a serious-looking middle-aged man. He was wearing a factory uniform with a look of confusion on his face. He was holding a record book in his hand and was doing inspection work.
"Uncle, let me see the bricks." Zhu Xing said with a smile.
"What's so good about this?" Zhu Yong said with a tigerish face, "You have to be serious when you work in the brick factory and don't let others make irresponsible remarks. Otherwise, it will not only talk about you, but also me. Do you know?"
"I understand, uncle."
Zhu Yong's face improved a little, and he looked at Su Qingyun next to him, "Who are you?"
"Hello, Director Zhu, I'm from Luoshui Village." Su Qingyun greeted quickly, "Our village bought a batch of bricks from your brick factory to build a school. I felt something was wrong, so I wanted to come and see the normal production. What do the bricks look like?”
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yong frowned, "The bricks sold by our factory are all good bricks, and there have been no quality problems."
Su Qingyun smiled and said: "It seems that Director Zhu still doesn't quite understand what the people below him have done."
"What do you mean?" Zhu Yong was stunned.
"Well..." Zhu Xing interrupted, "How about we talk somewhere else?"
The workers all looked over.
Zhu Yong looked at the time and saw that it would be a while before leaving the meeting. He muttered: "Go to my office."
The two followed Zhu Yong to the office. Zhu Yong looked at Su Qingyun and asked, "Tell me about it? What's going on?"
"Director Zhu, do you know what is in the warehouse at the east end of the brick factory?"
"The easternmost one?" Zhu Yong thought for a while, "That's an abandoned warehouse. It's always been empty, and there's nothing in it."
"But I just went to see it, and there were many kinds of bricks piled inside." Su Qingyun said slowly.
"Impossible!" Zhu Yong denied it without thinking. "The bricks in the brick factory are all piled up in the warehouse on the west. The warehouse on the east has been idle for a long time, and even the workers rarely go there. "
"That's right. It's the most suitable place to put things to hide people's eyes." Su Qingyun said, "Director Xu personally took me there just now. There can be no mistake."
"Director Xu? Xu Wenjie?"
"right."
Zhu Yong thought for a moment, "It is true that all the keys to the warehouse are with him, but how come there are bricks there?"
"The bricks there were all unqualified. Director Xu and his brother-in-law Zhang Meng sold these unqualified bricks to our village school at normal prices. I felt there was a big safety problem, so I specially Here comes the brick factory.”
"Tell me exactly what happened." Zhu Yong's face darkened.
Su Qingyun explained the whole story in detail.
After hearing this, Zhu Yong's face turned livid and extremely ugly.
"There is such a thing! Xu Wenjie is a little too courageous!" He shouted sharply.
Su Qingyun said seriously: "Director Zhu, although I am only a student, I also know the seriousness of this matter. In addition to our village, I don't know how many people they have sold these substandard bricks to. Making money is a small matter. The main thing is that if something goes wrong, then everyone will not look for Director Xu and Zhang Meng personally, but will hold the brick factory responsible. After all, these bricks come from the brick factory, and everyone will only look for this. "
After Su Qingyun made it clear what was at stake, Zhu Yong's face became even more angry.
"Don't worry, we will definitely find out about this matter." Director Zhu promised, "You are from Luoshui Village, right?"
"right."
"Okay, then." Director Zhu thought for a while, "I have a meeting soon. I will send someone back to Luoshui Village with you to see for myself. If there are really those substandard bricks, I will deal with them seriously. !”
"Thank you so much!" Su Qingyun said happily.
"It should be done. This is also the fault of our brick factory." Director Zhu said.
"By the way, Zhang Meng is also in our village now. He was also invited by our village to help build the school."
"He? Repairing the school?" Factory Director Zhu sneered, obviously knowing that Zhang Meng was half-empty and had no real skills.
Director Zhu looked at the time again and said anxiously: "It's too late. I have to go to a meeting. Someone will go back with you later."
"OK."
"By the way, what's your name?"
"Su Qingyun."
Su Qingyun? Director Zhu was suddenly stunned.
