"Foreign characters?" Lao Liu became interested, put down the porcelain bottle, and said, "Let's go and have a look."
The iron box has been brought by Banggeng on a cart and is parked outside the scrapyard.
Pulling off the old sheets hanging on top, Lao Liu circled around the iron box, reached out and touched the buttons, then picked up the plug and looked at it for a while, and finally saw that he was lonely.
"What is this thing...? It seems to be plugged in."
"Plug it in? Shout, it's high technology. Let's plug it in and try it."
"Tiedan, pull the electric rope over."
"okay!"
....
After a busy meal, Lao Liu plugged the plug into the socket with great anticipation.
However, the power of the fully electronic balance is 500 watts, which cannot be loaded by the simple wires at the scrapyard.
Only two sounds of "bah" were heard, the room was filled with fire, a puff of green smoke came out of the electric rope, and the pungent smell of burnt plastic filled the air.
The flames on the electric rope ignited the scrap cardboard piled in the corner.
The flames popped out with a "vine".
"Damn it, it's on fire, put it out quickly!"
Lao Liu's expression changed drastically, and he quickly ordered the little brother at the scrap station to bring a basin of water and put out the fire.
Although he acted quickly, the flames had already ignited a large pile of cardboard, and even the plastic that Lao Liu had worked so hard to collect was burned into black charcoal.
Plastic is a valuable item in this era, and you can earn two yuan per pound.
Seeing the massive amount of wealth disappear, Lao Liu felt a little fire in his heart and started to feel pain.
He grabbed Banggeng's collar: "Boy, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Banggeng looked innocent: "Brother Six, I really don't know what you are talking about. If you don't want this thing, I will just take it away. Do you need to be so fierce?"
"Take them away? Haha, you kid has such a beautiful idea. You burned most of the scrap yard for me, and now you want to leave with a slap on your butt?"
These days, private individuals are not allowed to open scrapyards. The reason Liu Zi could go from being a member to a stubborn leader with more than a dozen subordinates was because of his ruthlessness.
As he spoke, he waved his hand and gave Banggeng a big bag: "Get out, for the sake of our many years of face, get out of here."
Banggeng's face felt numb for a while, but he still squeezed out a smile: "Brother Six, you are my good brother, give me a little bit. Look, it's not easy for me to pull this thing over."
When Lao Liu heard this, he looked at Banggeng in a funny way, raised his palm as big as a cattail leaf fan, and said coldly: "What's the matter, you still want to be beaten, get out of here!"
"Don't, don't..."
Banggeng wanted to cry but had no tears. He had spent so much effort to get something, and he originally wanted to sell it for a big price, but he didn't expect that he didn't get the money and was beaten.
Facing the fierce-looking Lao Liu, Banggeng could only hold his nose and admit it.
Dragging his sore legs back to the courtyard, Banggeng just opened the door when Mrs. Jia Zhang came up to her.
"Grandson, how much did it cost, one thousand yuan?"
Banggeng glared at her angrily and sat down on the chair.
"Two thousand yuan?" Mrs. Jia Zhang's eyes narrowed with joy.
Bangge shook his head.
Jia Zhang's eyes widened suddenly: "Dear me, it can't be five thousand yuan, right? Oh my grandson, we two are going to get rich."
Banggeng smiled bitterly and said: "Not a penny."
"What?" Ms. Jia Zhang rubbed her ears, looked at Banggeng doubtfully and said, "You don't want to swallow all the money, do you? Banggeng, I am your biological mother, you can't do this."
Banggeng glared at her angrily: "That thing burned the wires in the scrap yard, and I was beaten up. It's a good thing that we didn't ask for compensation. How dare you ask people for money."
Jia Zhangshi: "Really?"
"real!"
"you swear?"
"I swear, if you tell any lies, I will never be able to marry a wife."
After hearing Bangge's poisonous oath, Jia Zhang finally accepted this incredible fact.
She spat fiercely: "It's all that damn Wang Weidong's fault. If he hadn't had such a thing on his truck, would we have been able to move home? Could you have been beaten?"
"Yes, yes, it's all Wang Weidong's fault!"
.....
Early in the morning, after Wang Weidong had breakfast, he was ready to go to the textile factory. Huang Yanling had already drawn the design of the work clothes, and he would have to make a prototype today, so he had to keep an eye on it.
After leaving the door, Wang Weidong was about to leave on his bicycle. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a few messy footprints not far away, and he turned around again.
He walked to the truck and glanced inside, his brows suddenly furrowed.
The canvas inside the truck was a mess, and the ropes that had been used to tie the cargo were now untied.
Yes, if you park it in front of your house, you can lose your things.
Wang Weidong sighed, got on his bicycle and headed to the guest house.
Han Dongfang just woke up and his face turned pale when he heard that the equipment was missing.
The team members hurried to the truck.
After a list, a team member reported: "Report, Director, the all-electronic balance is lost."
Fully electronic balance... Wang Weidong was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "This thief really knows how to pick things, and he actually picked the most expensive one."
Han Dongfang looked serious: "Director, are things expensive?"
Wang Weidong nodded: "Do you think it's just a scale and not valuable? To tell you the truth, our truckload of goods may not be as valuable as that scale.
Its accuracy is extremely high, its weighing range is from 100g/0.1mg to 50kg/1g, and it is also the most advanced in the world.
At present, we cannot produce such balances at all in our country. It is estimated that the ministries and commissions shipped them back through overseas channels.
Our Orchid Lab's upcoming project will depend on this scale, so be sure to get it back.
Old Han, this task is left to you.
"
Han Dongfang's expression became serious when he heard this, and he saluted Wang Weidong: "Don't worry, I promise to catch the thief and find our factory's valuable property."
Lao Han is now safe and has many connections in the capital. Wang Weidong is relieved about this and nods: "I'll bother you then. I'll congratulate you when the balance is found."
I got on my bike and left. Professional things should be left to professionals.
....
In the textile factory, Wang Weidong took a brand new work clothes from Huang Yanling and couldn't help nodding and praising: "Not bad, really good. The color is bright red, which makes it look energetic. The huge logo behind him is more conducive to Workers develop a sense of identification with the factory, and the materials are thick and wear-resistant.
Director Gong, please order 8,000 pieces of this work clothes first.
"
When Factory Director Gong saw that the order was finally received, he was so happy that he couldn't help but say, "Director Liu, don't worry, I will personally keep an eye on it to ensure the quality."
Wang Weidong held his work clothes and smiled: "When will these clothes be completed?"
Director Gong also inquired about the Orchid TV Factory in private and knew that it was a big financial backer. He quickly patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I will have the workshop sew for you right away. It will probably take a week." ”
Wang Weidong calculated it and figured it would take some time for Lao Han to get the balance back.
Maybe we'll be able to make it in time by then and use a truck to transport the work back.
In this way, you can also save a lot of shipping costs.
"Okay, then I'll spare your brother's trouble. Come on, I'll treat you to dinner."
"I'm sorry, Old Liu. You've done me a great favor this time. I'll beg you, please."
"Okay, it's up to you, I won't argue with you. Designer Huang put in a lot of effort this time and called her in too."
Director Gong was an old factory director and had already seen the world with his eyes. Seeing that Wang Weidong seemed to attach great importance to Huang Yanling, he was happy to do favors: "Xiao Huang, did you hear that? Let's go to dinner together. You don't have to go to work these days. Let’s discuss the design of summer clothes with Director Liu.”
The Orchid TV Factory purchased all winter clothes this time, so Director Gong naturally wanted to get orders for summer clothes as well.
With these orders, textile factories have money to supplement the wages of workers.
Huang Yanling understood Wang Weidong's bad intentions and said with a blushing face: "Don't worry, I will definitely have a good communication with Factory Director Liu."
.....
On the other side, after Wang Weidong left, Han Dongfang led his team members to investigate the scene and found only a few shoe prints but no useful clues.
However, there were no traces of wheels on the ground. Considering that the electronic balance weighs two hundred kilograms, it cannot be carried very far by people.
The scope of the investigation was limited to the surrounding courtyards.
One of the team members looked serious: "Section Chief, I think we should search for nearby residents."
"Are you kidding me? Do you think this is Ningzhou?" Han Dongfang frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "Director Wang from the Siheyuan Police Station and I are old comrades in arms. I didn't plan to disturb him this time, but it seems I can't. . Come on, let’s buy some gifts and sit at the police station.”
Han Dongfang left one team member to guard the truck and took two team members to a nearby supply and marketing cooperative to buy a large front door and went straight to the police station.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the police station, I was stopped by the guard: "Comrade, who are you looking for?"
Han Dongfang took out his work permit from his pocket: "I am Han Dongfang, the security section chief of the Orchid TV Factory. I have something to see your Director Wang."
The security department of state-owned factories is a section-level unit, and Han Dongfang is a section-level cadre.
The street police station is a stock-level unit, and Director Wang is only a stock-level cadre.
In comparison, Han Dongfang was a head above Director Wang.
When the young comrade saw the position on the work permit, his expression suddenly became respectful: "Section Chief Han, Director Wang is in a meeting now. You go sit in the reception room first, and I will inform the director."
Han Dongfang and his party waited in the reception room for less than ten minutes when a dark-faced man opened the door and barged in.
When he saw that it was really Han Dongfang, his face was filled with joy.
He rushed forward and hugged Han Dongfang: "Old platoon leader, it's really you!"
"Can we still have a holiday?" Han Dongfang patted Director Wang's shoulder heavily: "We haven't seen you for a few years. Xiao Wang, you seem to have gained a lot of weight."
Han Dongfang and Director Wang were in the same team. Han Dongfang was the platoon leader and Director Wang was the correspondent.
"Yes, after I transferred to a local job, I gained weight because I ate well and didn't have to train all day." Director Wang looked at Han Dongfang, his eyes a little misty: "Back then, if you hadn't braved the torch I carried it out of the trench, and I'm afraid the grass on my grave is now two feet high."
"Why are you talking about this? We are brothers of life and death. If I had been injured back then, you would have made the same choice." Han Dongfang let go of Director Wang, straightened his collar, and said with a smile, "I'm so old now." , the children can go to school, how can they act like children?"
Director Wang wiped the corners of his eyes: "When I see you, I think of Dongzi, Huzi and the others."
Mentioning the sacrificed team members, Director Han's expression became solemn, and he sighed and said: "They were as old as formal flowers, but..."
Director Wang remembered that Lao Han treated every team member like his own nephew. He hurriedly mobilized his facial muscles to dispel the sadness on his face, and squeezed out a smile and said:
"Oh, look, old platoon leader, why am I talking about this? Come and sit down, sit down, Xiao Liu, hurry up and make tea. There is a pack of West Lake Longjing in the cabinet in my office. Use that tea."
After Xiao Liu closed the door and left, Han Dongfang stared at Director Wang seriously and said, "Xiao Wang, I'm here to bother you this time because a valuable instrument has been lost in our factory. I hope you can help find it."
"Isn't your factory in Ningzhou?" Director Wang was confused.
"What happened is this. Our factory director got a batch of equipment from the Chemical Research Institute in Beijing and was preparing to transport it back to Ningzhou. Who would have thought that the truck was parked outside and the contents of the truck were stolen." Han Dongfang He said slowly: "That instrument is called a fully electronic balance. It has extremely high precision and cannot be produced domestically. It was shipped from abroad.
Our newly built laboratory at Ningzhou Orchid TV Factory has been designated as a national key laboratory.
Fully electronic balance is an indispensable equipment in the laboratory.
If it cannot be found, it may have a serious impact on the progress of the project in the laboratory.
"
Hearing this, Director Wang's expression suddenly became solemn: "Don't worry, I will arrange someone to help you find it right away."
Han Dongfang took the big front door from the team members and threw it on the table.
Seeing the big front door, Director Wang seemed to have seen a bomb and said angrily: "Old platoon leader, what are you doing! If such a serious thing happens in my jurisdiction, I will not care whether it is public or private. It has to be taken seriously.”
Han Dongfang smiled and said: "This cigarette is not for you, it is for the team members. You also know that our Lanhua TV Factory is not short of money."
After hearing this, the expression on Director Wang's face relaxed, and at the same time he sighed in his heart: The old platoon leader has finally learned to be flexible.
.....
Soon, a special team was established, with Director Wang personally serving as the team leader and Han Dongfang as the deputy team leader.
Han Dongfang explained the results of the on-site investigation, and Director Wang immediately made the decision: "Let's go, let's go to the nearby compound now and visit the people to look for clues."
When everyone arrived at the courtyard, the workers were just getting off work.
In the courtyard, children were running around, the young daughter-in-law went to wash clothes by the sink with a basin in her hands, and the old man was bragging.
The air is filled with the fireworks of life.
Director Wang took Han Dongfang directly to Yi Zhonghai's house and told Yi Zhonghai the situation.
"Lao Yi, the equipment lost this time is very valuable and has been classified. As the first master of the courtyard, you should immediately hold a hospital-wide meeting and ask the residents to provide clues."
