Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

"Bang!"

The tea cup in Vice Minister Zhou's hand crashed to the ground and broke into pieces: "What did you say? Say it again."

Tao Yuan took a deep breath: "The Sangang machine tool manufacturing drawings stored in the laboratory were stolen last night, suspected to be the work of the enemy."

Vice Minister Zhou's whole body was trembling, and he pointed at Tao Yuan with a trembling hand: "You... what can I say to you?"

"A bunch of bastards, why do they do bastard things?"

This simple sentence almost exhausted all my strength.

Seeing that Vice Minister Zhou was about to fall, Tao Yuan quickly stepped forward and helped Vice Minister Zhou to a chair and sat down: "Minister Zhou, don't be angry."

Vice Minister Zhou sat on the chair and said in an angry voice: "I'm not angry. How can I not be angry?"

"Do you know what Sangang machine tools mean to the Ministry of Industry and flower growers?"

"That is the stepping stone for our flower industry to go abroad and go global."

"The inspection and acceptance of such an important weapon of the country was completed in the afternoon, and the manufacturing drawings were lost in the evening. Why don't you lose yourselves?"

Tao Yuan said patiently: "Vice Minister Zhou, we know that we are to blame for this matter, but the first thing now is to have a reasonable plan to deal with this matter as soon as possible and try to minimize the losses."

"Director Yang asked me to come to you. I hope you will come forward to request the local troops to assist in the investigation and investigate the surrounding areas of Forty-Nine City to see if the enemy can be blocked."

Vice Minister Zhou said: "Assist in the investigation, how to assist in the investigation? Even if the troops are willing to dispatch, who do you want them to investigate? Who to arrest?"

"Just running around aimlessly like a headless fly, what's the point?"

Tao Yuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

Although he looked calm, he was actually more anxious than Yang Weimin.

So much so that I never thought about this issue all the way here.

Vice Minister Zhou said angrily: "Look at the good things you have done. For such a big factory, you can't even protect a single drawing."

"I also want to upgrade you. I think you can just masturbate."

Tao Yuan calmed down and said: "Vice Minister Zhou, ask the military to prepare. We will rush back to the factory to investigate and see if we can find any clues."

"Yesterday, the machine tool had just been tested and finalized, and the drawings were stolen at night. This must have been done by our internal staff."

"The only people who know about this, apart from the leadership team and members of the R&D team in the factory, are the people from the Ministry of Industry brought over by you, Vice Minister Zhou."

"Let's gather them all first. Whoever is absent will be the most suspicious."

Vice Minister Zhou nodded: "Well, this analysis makes sense. I will go back to the Ministry of Industry first to contact the military."

"Lao Yang is not as calm as you, and his thinking is not as thorough as yours. You go back to the factory first and take charge."

Tao Yuan nodded: "Okay!"

There were crowds of people at the entrance of the laboratory.

Members of the security department and members of the R&D team gathered here.

Wen Wan was trying to persuade Yan Weimin, who was still sitting on the ground. Cigarette butts were scattered around him.

"What? That bastard Lei Jie isn't at home?" Qi Fei asked with a frown.

A security guard said: "Yes, his father said that Lei Jie has not been home for more than half a month. He said he was on duty at the factory."

Qi Fei said angrily: "Who is on duty every day? Recently, I saw that he was in a particularly bad state of mind during the day, so he took his salary and went out to fool around with his friends."

"Thanks to Jiang Chen for still being so optimistic about him, there was no one around at the critical moment. When he comes back, I'll talk to him. If you want to do it, do it. If you don't, get out."

The members of the R&D team reported their whereabouts last night one by one.

But most of them were sleeping at home and had no witnesses, so they couldn't get many useful clues.

The engineering drawings were stolen, which was a big blow to them.

The machine tools they worked so hard to develop are now about to be picked away by others.

Cao Jun suddenly said: "Where is Wang An?"

Qi Fei said: "The people sent to look for him said there was no one at home."

Liu Yue frowned.

Liu Xi suddenly said: "When I saw that he was fine, I kept peeking at the cabinet where Director Jiang kept the engineering drawings several times."

"It's not that I was at odds with him and deliberately framed him, but I really saw it, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time."

Wan Liye said naively: "When I was drawing pictures, he would often come to see me, but I would hide them from him."

Luo Xue was stunned: "Is it true?"

Liu Yue said: "Chief Qi, please immediately send someone to pry open Wang An's door to see if there are any clues inside."

Qi Fei said: "What if Wang An just went out to celebrate the festival?"

Liu Yue said decisively: "You can't control that much. Let's knock on the door and search first, and don't damage the items. If we make a mistake, I will apologize to him."

Qi Fei nodded: "Okay, I'll make arrangements."

Liu Yue turned to Wan Li and said, "Wan Li, take a pen and paper right now and start drawing Wang An's portrait. Reserve as needed. The more the better."

At the critical moment, Liu Yue, who had always been hiding behind Jiang Chen, stood up.

She uses her wits and gives orders decisively to everyone, quite like a big sister.

"Okay!" Wan Li went to do it immediately.

The R&D team all knew that Liu Yue was Jiang Chen's woman. Many people called her sister-in-law in private, and there was no doubt about her orders.

Luo Xue suddenly found that she began to admire Liu Yue a little.

If she were Jiang Chen's woman, she would definitely not have thought of this, let alone decisively ask the security department to break down the door of an eighth-level worker.

Cao Jun said: "After you finish the painting, give me one and I'll go find the newspaper. They have a way to mass-produce pictures."

Zhao Dongsheng said: "I'll move the table for you."

Liu Yue frowned and said, "Why move the table?"

Zhao Dongsheng said: "We are painting here, the security department won't let us leave."

Liu Yue said: "It's freezing here. Can you draw if your hands are shaking? Just go to the engineering department office and ask the security department to send two people to follow."

Zhao Dongsheng slapped his head: "Yes, yes, my sister-in-law is smarter."

Liu Yue said: "Go quickly!"

The group of people split up and took action.

Seeing everyone busy, Liu Yue turned her back and secretly wiped the tears from her face.

Jiang Chen would be in danger if he chased the enemy. She was more worried than anyone else.

Luo Xue came over and gently hugged Liu Yue's shoulders: "Sister Yue, don't worry, he is so smart, he will be fine."

Liu Yue nodded: "I know, but I'm just worried about him."

Luo Xue asked: "That Wang An is an eighth-level worker, how dare you let the security department break down someone's door just by relying on a few words from everyone."

Liu Yue said: "Because my man is Jiang Chen, even if I get into trouble this time, he will solve it for me."

Luo Xue was stunned.

It seems that she is not even a little bit worse than Liu Yue.

Vice Minister Zhou's car and the security guards who went to search Wang An's home arrived outside the laboratory at the same time.

The security guard handed Qi Fei a note: "It's confirmed, Wang An is the enemy."

Qi Fei unfolded it and took a look, his expression changed again, and then he carefully put the note away: "Tell brothers, the content on the note is not allowed to be disclosed to anyone."

The security guard nodded: "I already took care of them before coming back."

Qi Fei turned around and came to Tao Yuan: "Wang An is the enemy, and we can basically confirm that the drawing is Wang An's island."

Tao Yuan opened his mouth: "Huh?"

Yang Weimin, who was sitting on the ground, jumped up: "What? Wang An? How could it be him?"

Wang An is a direct descendant of Yang Weimin. Whether it was the last technical observation or the development of machine tools, he named him to participate.

He never imagined that this person who he trusted immensely after working in the steel rolling mill for more than ten years would actually be his enemy.

Vice Minister Zhou said: "Has the person been identified? Your actions are not slow."

"The military has agreed to cooperate. As long as we provide the suspect's image characteristics, they will go out to investigate."

"Which of you is more eloquent, please describe Wang An's characteristics. Secretary, please take notes."

Liu Yue came forward with a stack of paper: "Before you guys came, I had Wan Li draw Wang An's portrait, and it's all here."

"In addition, Cao Jun has already gone to the newspaper office and asked the newspaper office to help print the profile picture. If there is a note from Representative Tao, the newspaper office should be able to cooperate and send someone to pick it up."

Vice Minister Zhou: "Quickly, send these portraits to the military. Stop by the newspaper office on the way and take out all the portraits."

"Quick! Xiao Yang, you go too!"

Qi Fei said: "By the way, tell the military to focus on searching in this direction. This is where Jiang Chen is chasing."

Vice Minister Zhou's secretary and Xiao Yang left at the same time.

Only then did Vice Minister Zhou react: "Wait a minute, you said Jiang Chen went after the enemy?"

Qi Fei nodded: "Because he is engaged in engineering and has better eyesight. Only he can detect the traces left by Wang An, so he led three people to chase him early in the morning."

Vice Minister Zhou beat his chest and said, "You bastards, you are so confused. If Wang An dared to steal the blueprints, it was probably someone who helped him."

"You asked Jiang Chen to chase him. What if he meets someone who is taking care of him? What if..."

He glanced at Liu Yue and found that the other person's face darkened at that time, so he did not continue talking.

Yang Weimin stepped forward and said: "Jiang Chen also wanted to take note of the drawings, so he pursued him first. However, the security department has sent three capable security guards to follow him, so there is no need to worry about safety issues."

Vice Minister Zhou glanced at Yang Weimin indifferently: "You will still manage the No. 3 Steel Plant for the time being. When things happen here, I will come to you to settle the score."

Saying this in public is already quite serious.

After saying that, he turned to Liu Yue and said: "You dare to smash the room of an eighth-level worker to find out the identity of the enemy, and you have prepared the enemy's portrait in advance."

"Little girl, you are not timid, and you are not simple!"

Liu Yue said: "Because Jiang Chen is my man, because I am Jiang Chen's woman."

This is not straightforward, but it is very clever.

Because Jiang Chen is my man, I can do things boldly and have someone to back me up.

Because I am Jiang Chen’s woman, it’s too simple to be worthy of him.

The troops are out!

Countless vehicles drove from the camp to all directions.

They all received a death order, "No matter how many miles away, they must find the person in the portrait and get back the manufacturing plan in his hand."

The order was issued directly from the Central Secretariat.

The portrait was just sent by someone from the Ministry of Industry.
