Rebirth in a Book: The Road to Breakthrough

Chapter 138 Acquisition encounters robbery

"Oh, who is it? Do I know him?"

"Yes, it's Sister Rubao. I decided to let her be my assistant."

"Congcong, you are being too hasty. Rubao has only graduated from junior high school, and she doesn't have much experience."

"It's okay. Let her try it for a month. I'll teach her. If she really can't do it, we can just find someone else."

"Okay! If you just do this, you might have a hard time."

"Don't worry, it won't happen. With capable people like you around, I don't have much to worry about anyway. Don't worry, don't worry..."

Tiezhu was handling the case of Sawada Sakura in the police station and did not come back until half a month later.

During the past half month, Yu Congcong has focused on the factory. He has dealt with all the factory affairs and the factory is back on track. Fu Rubao is very adaptable and has quickly mastered the tasks of an assistant in just half a month. This has reduced a lot of Yu Congcong's workload.

"Congcong." That afternoon after get off work, Tiezhu was waiting for Yu Congcong at the factory gate.

"Tiezhu, you're back." Yu Congcong was a little surprised to see Tiezhu. She had been very busy for the past half month and had no energy to deal with things between her and Tiezhu. She also didn't pay attention to Su Ting and Yuan Zhe's movements. She heard that Grandpa went to Sixth Grandma's house to thank Su Ting for saving his life. Yu Congcong didn't know how Grandpa knew that Su Ting saved Tiezhu when Tiezhu didn't come back.

Yu Congcong didn't want to ask, it was just the plot at work again.

"CongCong, what's wrong with you?"

Fu Tiezhu felt Yu Congcong's coldness and didn't understand why.

"Nothing! Am I any different?"

"Oh, I'm glad you're okay."

Fu Tiezhu looked Yu Congcong up and down, and found nothing different. He didn't understand why he felt Congcong was distant just now.

"Congcong, has Uncle Dazhuang's injury healed? Why did he return to the army?" Tiezhu asked.

Yu Congcong replied, "Dad's injury has almost healed. He is anxious to return to the army because he has a mission to complete."

Tiezhu nodded. "That's good. Uncle Dazhuang has always been in good health and he recovered quickly from his injury this time. By the way, how is the situation at the factory recently? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Yu Congcong smiled and said, "Everything went smoothly. By the way, I asked Sister Rubao to be my assistant." He learns things quickly and does his assistant job very well. He has helped me a lot."

Tiezhu asked, "She didn't cause you any trouble, did she?"

Yu Congcong praised, "No, she learns things very quickly and does her assistant job very well. She has helped me a lot."

Tiezhu said, "That's good. Rubao learns things very quickly, and she is very careful."

Yu Congcong said: "Yes, he is very adaptable. We can give him more opportunities to exercise his talents in the future."

Tiezhu agreed, "Yes, that's right, she needs more exercise. By the way, Congcong, you've worked hard in the past half month. There are so many things to do in the factory, and I haven't been able to help."

Yu Congcong smiled and said, "It's okay. This is what I should do. Besides, I'm familiar with the factory's affairs and can handle them easily."

Tiezhu looked at Yu Congcong, his heart filled with gratitude and love. He said softly, "Congcong, thank you. When I finish the case at hand, I won't be like this now, coming back to accompany you every day."

Yu Congcong nodded and a smile appeared on her face.

Fu Tiezhu took Yu Congcong's hand.

A cool breeze blew by and Lu Congcong shivered.

Fu Tiezhu asked with concern: "Congcong, are you cold?"

Yu Congcong replied: "Well, the weather has started to get cooler these days."

Fu Tiezhu: "Well, let's go back quickly!"

The two of them quickened their pace and hurried back.

Since parting with Fu Tiezhu that evening, Fu Tiezhu has been living in the station for a long time and has never returned.

That day, Yu Congcong was thinking about the two of them. Assistant Fu Rubao walked in and said, "Director, the manager called and said they ran out of funds and couldn't come back. He asked me to transfer the money."

Yu Congcong asked anxiously: "Did something happen?"

Fu Rubao replied: "They said they were robbed."

It turns out that's what happened.

Since that day, Yu Congcong handled the formalities for them and Zhang Yun and Hou received the letters of introduction.

The two packed their bags and resolutely embarked on a long journey to purchase soybeans. The first stop was the next county, Changlin County.

Along the way, both of them had excitement and anticipation on their faces, and they were looking forward to returning with a full load.

However, what they didn't know was that they had already been targeted by a group of gangsters. It turned out that Zhang Yun and Hou Bao had discussed the route of the acquisition plan in a local state-owned restaurant after arriving in Changlin County, and accidentally revealed the amount of money they were carrying. All of this happened to be heard by the gangsters at the next table.

Because Hou Bao lacked understanding of the darkness of society and was overly idealistic about the darkness of human nature, he was completely unaware that his words and actions might cause trouble.

Just when they were about to reach their destination, something unexpected happened: a group of vicious gangsters appeared in the middle of the road like ghosts, blocked their way, and attempted to extort money.

Zhang Yun and Hou Bao's faces instantly became solemn, but they did not panic. Zhang Yun frowned slightly, staring at the gangster calmly, while Hou Bao pursed his lips and subconsciously clenched his fists.

Zhang Yun took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said to the criminals: "Brothers, we are just businessmen passing by. We don't have much money on us. Please be merciful."

The leader of the gang sneered and said viciously: "Stop talking nonsense and hand over the money, or don't even think about passing through here!"

Hou Bao couldn't help but yelled, "You are robbing! We can call the police!"

The gang leader glared at him and threatened: "Call the police? Just try! If you don't hand over the money today, you won't be able to leave alive!"

After careful consideration, Zhang Yun and Hou Bao realized that in this situation, life was more important than money, so they gritted their teeth and decided to spend the money to save their lives.

In the end, they had no choice but to hand over the little money they had to the criminals, and only then were they able to escape.

After the two escaped from the criminals, they went directly to the local police station to report the case. After listening to them, the police said that they were afraid that the case would not be solved in a short time.

The two came out of the police station penniless, but Zhang Yun and Hou Bao were lucky to be alive. They deeply realized how difficult it was to work outside, and they cherished their lives and safety even more.

So they called the factory and asked for help.

Yu Congcong was a little worried: "Hurry up and send them the money."

Fu Rubao replied: "Okay, I'll go right away."

Yu Congcong felt that it was not a good idea for them to go and purchase the goods in person as they were unfamiliar with the place and it was too dangerous.
