The Scum Gong’s Redemption Manual (Quick Transmigration) 33p2

Chapter 33 p2

By the time he left the police station, it was almost three in the afternoon. It was still the same police officer who saw him out. He patted his shoulder and said, “Good kid, work hard!”

The case had been busy recently, and everyone was overwhelmed. He had never seen the leaders above be so kind to anyone, which showed that the idea Lu Ze had proposed had really helped them solve a big problem.

Lu Ze also smiled at him. “It’s all thanks to you, comrade, for helping me with the introduction.”

As for the factory, there was no problem on the police station’s side. As for the rest, the factory was originally public land, and was later approved to be given to the machinery factory. But a few years ago, due to some internal business integration, and the expansion of the factory and its move to a new site, this place was said to be demolished and rebuilt, and other factories would be built in the future. But the factory resources in the city were relatively saturated now, so it had not been demolished and was left here. They also felt that it was a pity to just leave a good place like that. Just as the tide of reform and opening up came, they rented it out to private individuals to make some money back.

The police officer glanced around and said to him in a small voice, “You’re a lucky kid. The child you saved from the human traffickers last time is the grandson of the machinery factory’s director. I heard that he dotes on him like he’s his own heart.” He smiled, his meaning self-evident. “Behave well when you go to visit.”

This was something Lu Ze hadn’t expected. At that time, he had just seen that the child was clearly well-dressed, but the human trafficker was dressed plainly, so he had saved him on a whim. He had also thought that the child might be from some leader’s family, but he didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence.

Lu Ze quickly said seriously, “Thank you so much, comrade!” For a police comrade to tell him these things, it showed that he really cared for him.

The police officer also just felt that this young comrade was enterprising and knew how to be a good Samaritan, so he had a good impression of him and gave him a few pointers. Hearing this, he smiled, waved his hand, and said, “Go on.”

Lu Ze had wanted to go and visit the machinery factory’s director directly, but he had to stay in the city for two days, so he had to find a place to live first.

Lu Ze walked around the police station and, after chatting with the old man and woman at the door for a long time, successfully found out that there was a house with a courtyard for sale.

The old couple wanted to go to the provincial capital with their son and needed to save more money, so they wanted to sell the house here.

Lu Ze pondered for a moment, then asked the old man to take him to find the person. After explaining his request, the person was unwilling at first. They wanted to sell, not rent out.

Lu Ze added, “I’m a little tight on money right now, so I’ll just rent it for two months. After two months, I’ll buy this house. What do you think?”

“Just think of it as giving me two months’ grace, okay?”

Although the original host’s parents had left a lot of money, if the factory was in his hands now, the initial investment would also be a lot, so he couldn’t put all his money here.

The couple hesitated for a moment and asked, “Can you really come up with that much money in two months?”

They had also spent a lot of money to build this house, and now they were asking for a high price. But in just two months, could this young man really come up with that much money?

Lu Ze smiled. “If I can’t come up with it then, you can just kick me out. In any case, no one is buying your house for now. If I pay you rent, won’t you still be able to make some money?”

The couple was a little tempted. After hesitating for a while, they finally nodded in agreement.

After paying the rent, the landlord introduced to him, “We’re leaving in a hurry, so we’re not taking the furniture and daily necessities here. You can just move in with your own clothes.”

The house had the layout of a farmhouse courtyard. It was spacious outside, and everything inside was complete, from tables, chairs, and benches to teapots and quilts. It was really a move-in ready place.

“If you can buy it then, I’ll give you all the things inside,” they said.

Only then did Lu Ze nod and sincerely said thank you.

After finding a place to stay, Lu Ze was also relieved. He had been busy all day and was inevitably a little tired. He pulled over the blanket and slept through the night. The next day, Lu Ze went to the machinery factory again.

It was just as the police comrade had said. The child he had saved before was indeed the factory director’s grandson. He still recognized him now and would pounce on him as soon as he saw him. He must have been very scared at that time.

And, Lu Ze also found that the original host actually knew this old factory director.

The original host’s parents had been employees of the machinery factory for more than ten years. They had worked diligently, and no one had expected the accident. At that time, the old factory director had also stepped in to handle the compensation.

With these two connections, the machinery factory naturally had no objections to Lu Ze’s request and even took the initiative to lower the rent by 20%.

Even if they didn’t lower it, the factory probably wouldn’t be able to be rented out in a short period of time in this situation.

At noon, Lu Ze even had a meal at the factory director’s house before leaving.

After lunch, Lu Ze went to the police station again and, during the break, exchanged all the coupons.

In addition to the common grain, oil, and cloth coupons, there were also beer and soda coupons, and even the sewing machine and radio he wanted.

Some people had the coupons but no money, so they could only exchange the coupons with others.

The police comrade had worked hard, and Lu Ze was also grateful. Except for the ones he really couldn’t use, he took most of the coupons. He even added a little to the price of his share.

Both sides were happy.

In the afternoon, Lu Ze went to various places to handle the procedures. The machinery factory had agreed, but the procedures of other departments still had to be done.

He had been running around without a break. By the time it was getting dark, Lu Ze had finally finished everything.

He found a random shop on the side of the road and ate something. By the time he got home, it was already late.

After washing up, Lu Ze lay on the bed and looked up, feeling that the space beside him was empty.

The temperature dropped again at night, and it felt even colder and lonelier.

The next morning, Lu Ze rode his bike to the clothing factory.

The old owner had gotten into trouble, and most of the people in the factory were in a panic, not knowing what to do. Some people had already left, while others wanted to stay and see if they could get an answer.

Lu Ze’s arrival at this time was like a pillar of support for them.

They didn’t care who the owner of the factory was, only whether they had work to do and whether they would get paid.

After reassuring everyone, Lu Ze held a meeting with the old masters in the factory. After understanding the factory’s operating methods, he asked about the styles currently being produced and the overstocked inventory, which were all old styles. If these clothes were put on the market, not to mention that they wouldn’t sell, the sales would definitely not be good.

After communicating with a few designers, Lu Ze proposed some ideas and added some elements to the clothes that had already been made, and the feeling of the whole garment instantly became different.

The designers were instantly filled with admiration. Lu Ze then set the future development direction and worked with them on new styles of clothes until midnight. It was only when someone came to remind them that they were shocked to realize the passage of time.

Lu Ze rubbed his temples and said, “Let’s call it a day. Think carefully about the things I said. Sometimes, even just a change in a single detail can make the whole garment completely different.”

“I hope to see more and better works from you.”

The crowd naturally agreed excitedly.

By the time he got home, it was already the middle of the night.

Lu Ze lay on the bed, still thinking about buying books for Xu Qingyan. He had been so busy these past two days that his feet barely touched the ground. He couldn’t forget it again tomorrow…

The next morning, Lu Ze went out for breakfast and then rushed to the nearest bookstore. Fortunately, there was still stock in the store, so he didn’t have to go back empty-handed.

After putting the books away, Lu Ze thought that the Xu family should not be short of rice and noodles, so he went to buy some meat, pastries, and candy before riding his bike back to the village.

Lu Ze had never said when he would be back, so Xu’s mother had been nagging. Xu Qingyan was a little helpless while reading his book, thinking to himself that he really didn’t know who was her biological son.

Shaking his head, Xu’s mother had already gone into the kitchen to prepare food. Xu Qingyan was also about to immerse himself in his studies when a knock on the door suddenly sounded, followed by a familiar voice, “Uncle, Aunt.”

Xu’s mother had not yet come out of the kitchen, but Xu Qingyan rushed out first. He looked at Lu Ze, who was riding a 28-inch bicycle at the door, and his eyes couldn’t help but light up. “You’re back?”

Seeing his appearance, Lu Ze’s eyes were gentle with a smile. He handed him the wrapped books. “The books you wanted.”

Xu Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then reached out to take them.

For a moment, he had forgotten that he had asked Lu Ze to buy books.

Only then did Xu’s mother hear the noise and said with a surprised face, “Come in, come in quickly! Aiyo, you’re just in time for dinner. You haven’t eaten yet, have you?”

Lu Ze shook his head. Xu’s mother said, “I’m cooking right now. You should rest for a while first. We’ll eat later.”

“Qingyan, see if there’s anything to eat at home. Give Lu Ze something to tide him over first.”

Lu Ze was relaxed all over after coming back. He saw Xu’s mother go into the kitchen again and then took down the meat from his back seat.

When Xu’s mother saw that he was buying things randomly again, her face couldn’t help but show a hint of anger. “Why don’t you listen, you child? You have to bring things every time you come. If you keep doing this, don’t come to my house for dinner anymore!”

“Meat is not cheap now. How much money do you have to squander like this? You have to think about your future!”

Lu Ze said to her in a pleasant voice, “Don’t worry, Auntie. I know what I’m doing.”

Xu’s mother turned around and said angrily, “What do you know?”

Lu Ze explained, “This trip to the city was actually for work. I found a job. I was happy today, so I bought some meat.”

“Really?” Xu’s mother was instantly happy and quickly asked, “You really found a job? What factory is it? What do you do?”

“It’s a clothing factory.” He looked at Xu’s mother and said in a gentle voice, “Auntie, I’ve asked. The factory has just been established, and it’s still short of an accountant. If Qingyan is willing, he can also go.”

Xu’s mother’s eyes widened. “Qingyan can also go?”

Xu Qingyan was standing outside the door. Hearing this, he couldn’t help but be stunned.

Lu Ze nodded. “He can.”

Xu’s mother hesitated. “But he hasn’t even graduated from high school. How can he be an accountant for someone?”

Lu Ze said, “Auntie, this factory is privately owned. As long as you have the ability, they don’t care about those things.”

“It’s privately owned…” Xu’s mother murmured.

Lu Ze added, “Although it’s privately owned, the salary is not worse than that of a state-owned enterprise.”

Hearing this, Xu’s mother couldn’t help but be tempted, but she also considered other problems and was a little worried for a moment. “Then… but, after he goes, where will he live?”

Lu Ze said, “The factory has a staff dormitory, two people per room, and the conditions are not bad.”

Xu’s mother asked again, “Are meals and everything provided?”

“Everything is provided.”

Xu’s mother’s mind was in a mess. She held a kitchen knife in her hand and didn’t know what else to ask for a moment.

Xu Qingyan, who was outside the door, pursed his lips. His black and bright eyes looked at Lu Ze and asked seriously, “Can they really hire me?”

“After you go in, there will be an old accountant to guide you for a period of time. Whether you can stay or not depends entirely on yourself.” Lu Ze said, “Or do you think you can’t do it?”

Xu Qingyan’s fingers were tightly clenched, his eyes slightly dark. “I can.”

Only then did Lu Ze smile.
