Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1196 I don't understand (please subscribe)

   "It seems that this foursome in this book is a bit reckless."

   Liu Xing said with a smile: "So the new boss didn't care about them? Logically speaking, employees like them can be fired directly."

Maeda shook his head and said with a wry smile: "How can I put it, the new boss is a hands-off shopkeeper. After taking over the factory, he left all the affairs to the factory manager. People will give you some bonuses and gifts; and the factory manager is a good man. As long as you don't make any big mistakes, then the factory manager will not be able to fire you. Therefore, although the four-person group in this book has fought with many people in the factory , but because it was others who took the initiative to provoke, the factory manager would basically prefer the side of the group of four..."

Having said that, Maeda, who was hesitant to say anything, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he whispered: "There is such a rumor in the factory that the factory manager regards the group of four as his sons. , because the factory director's son passed away a long time ago, and the reason for his death is likely to be a fight with others. After all, the factory director's son is also a punk like us, but he became his small group because of his tall stature. He was a gold medalist, but because he had made too many enemies, he was attacked and seriously injured in one night, and finally died. Therefore, many people think that the factory manager saw the shadow of his son from the group of four in Benzhong. The group of four in the upper book are orphans themselves, so the factory manager subconsciously regards them as his own sons."

At this time, Hashimoto Satoshi on the side also stood up to add fuel to the jealousy: "Yes, I have heard of this rumor, and I remember that in the group photo taken by the factory last year, the factory manager specially arranged for the four-member group to stand on his own. From the back, he looks like his own bodyguard."

Hearing Hashimoto Satoshi's words, Liu Xing's mind flashed, and he thought of a possibility - the factory director and the four members of the four are members of the public faction, and the four members of the factory are indeed the factory. Long bodyguard!

In order to verify his conjecture, Liu Xing contacted kp Broken Bridge and gave his answer, "kp, just now you asked me to choose whether to believe Hashimoto's words, and my answer is to believe, so you can tell the answer is yes. wrong?"

   "Hehe, Liu Xing, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

  kp Broken Bridge sneered and said, "It's definitely impossible for me to tell you whether this answer is right or wrong, because this optional task is not as simple as you think."

   After saying this, KP Broken Bridge started playing dead mode.

Seeing that he couldn't get an answer from KP Broken Bridge, Liu Xing could only ask Maeda, "So, Maeda, can you tell me what kind of person your factory director is? Does he have any special stories? For example, he used to be a punk like you?"

"No, no, Mr. Meteor, you are wrong. You must know that the director of the factory is a top student. He used to study at Keio University, but because the economic bubble was burst, his company went bankrupt. Therefore, the parents of the factory director chose to leave this world, and the factory director had no choice but to drop out of school because he had no money to pay tuition fees, or even money to eat, and then came to work in this natural gas tank factory.”

"The business of natural gas tanking plants was very good at that time. After all, natural gas pipelines had not entered every household at that time, so many families chose to use tanked natural gas; but there were many natural gas tanking plants near Nagoya at that time. , so the competition pressure was very high, which caused the previous factory manager to suffer from cerebral congestion due to excessive pressure, so he had to change to a new factory manager to preside over the overall situation. As a result, the factory manager Jiu, who was only in his twenties at the time, stood out. After all, the whole In the factory, he has the highest level of education, and the position of the factory director should still be held by an educated person."

"After the factory manager took office, he was still questioned by many people because of his age, so he started to run business in the urban area of ​​Nagoya after he took office. The monthly sales increased by 60%, which was a miracle during the economic downturn. Since then, the voice of questioning the factory manager has gradually disappeared; just like this, more than ten years have passed, the factory manager has been in the factory. He worked diligently, of course, during this period he also married a wife and had children, and lived a very happy life... Perhaps the only flaw is that the factory manager spoiled his son too much, and because of his lack of discipline at work, he went astray. "

"So, what I just said happened ten years ago, and the factory director's wife had a heart disease, so when she learned that her son was severely injured, he was injured again soon after. After the news of her death, the factory director's wife was devastated and died after lying on the bed for five years. Therefore, the current factory director is already a loner, and this series of changes also made the factory director want to stay away from his own life. Sadly, living in my own office all the time..."

At the end, Maeda couldn't help but sigh again, "The factory manager is a very good person, and treats us employees equally. If anyone has any difficulties, they can go to him to solve it, as long as he can do it. He will not refuse, but unfortunately fate still treats him too badly."

   Liu Xing followed with a sigh, with a slightly sad expression on his face, but in his heart, Liu Xing sounded the alarm for the factory manager!

   In Liu Xing's view, there is at least a 50% chance that this factory manager will be a member of the public faction!

In that era of underdeveloped information, it was very easy to fake a person's experience. All you had to do was put the stories you heard from the people around you on your head, so no one can guarantee that the factory manager is entering the factory. The previous story is true, and in Liu Xing's opinion, if the factory manager is really studying at Keio University, then as long as his grades are not too bad, he should be able to apply for a bursary, and then he only needs to finish the work-study program. Books, you can find a better job, which is much better than going directly to the factory to work.

What's more, in a famous private university like Keio University, the network between students should not be underestimated, so as long as the factory manager has a few friends, whether it is to accept the help of his friends to continue to study in the university, or to go to friends Isn’t it better to work in the places you introduce than to work in this natural gas tanking plant?

   Therefore, Liu Xing felt that the factory manager came to work in this natural gas tank factory after dropping out of Keio University, and highlighted two words—outrageous, so Liu Xing felt that he had to suspect that the factory manager came to work in this factory for another purpose.

   Then it was the reason for the factory manager's position.

According to Maeda, there were quite a few natural gas tanking plants around the urban area of ​​Nagoya at that time, so it can be determined that the market for tanked natural gas in Nagoya urban area at this time has become saturated, and each factory has already delimited its own territory, so It is simply an impossible task to increase sales by 60% within one month, unless the discount at that time directly reaches the level of a future game platform surnamed E, which means losing money and making a profit. , it can only be done to the extent that every tank of natural gas will lose money.

   But is it possible?

   Unless the owner of the natural gas tanking plant thinks that he has too much money, it is impossible to agree to such an outrageous preferential plan!

As for other preferential plans, Liu Xing really can't think of any kind of fairy plan that can increase sales by 60%, unless the factory manager is also a player and uses the thinking of modern people to come up with a "gas coin" , and let consumers recognize his value, and start cooking without natural gas, but directly start cooking with natural gas. . .

   This possibility is even more outrageous.

Therefore, Liu Xing suspects that 60% of the sales volume is provided by the forces behind the factory manager, but Liu Xing still doesn't understand why the forces behind the factory manager value this small-scale natural gas tanking factory. There's also a fantasy gate in this gas tanker?

   But even if there is a gate of fantasy, this force does not need to spend a lot of time to support a factory manager to control the factory, wouldn't it be good to just spend money to buy him?

   Is it necessary to make something so complicated that it can be solved with money?

   Could it be that the forces behind the factory manager can't even collect this amount of money?

   This gave Liu Xing a 70% confidence that he fell directly to the third floor.

However, judging from what Maeda said before, the death of the factory director's son and wife should be the director's unilateral remarks, otherwise Maeda should have mentioned that "everyone in the factory has visited the factory director's son/wife. , and attended his/her funeral.” After all, the factory director has such a good reputation in the factory. If the employees in the factory knew the news at the first time, they would definitely visit the factory director’s family spontaneously.

   Therefore, Liu Xing doubted that the factory manager mentioned these things to the employees "after the fact", and then moved to live in the factory.

   This makes Liu Xing 10% more confident.

   As for the final certainty, what Liu Xing gave is the group of four in this book.

  The story of the group of four entering the factory in this book is also outrageous in Liu Xing's opinion.

   As bodyguards, how can the foursome in this book store their money with their boss? And then let the people you need to protect run away?

   The most important thing is that, as four good bodyguards, they can find better jobs, why did they stay in the factory as ordinary workers?

   Is it really because the factory manager is very charismatic, and directly let the group of four in this book pay their respects?

   Therefore, Liu Xing thinks that the only reasonable explanation is that the four-member team of Benzhong is here to protect the factory director, but if Maeda and Hashimoto Satoshi didn't lie, the team of four of Benzhong had already entered the factory a few years ago.

All in all, although Liu Xing thinks that this factory manager and the four-member group of this middle school may be members of the public faction, but I don't know why they appeared in this factory, but I can be sure that these people did not come because of the battle of Gongwu, After all, Liu Xing hadn't heard of the fact that the force had begun the battle of Gongwu several decades in advance.

   It seems that there are secrets in this natural gas tanking plant that he does not know.

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing asked with a smile: "By the way, Maeda brother, how come this factory is so desolate, don't they dare to settle here because they are afraid that the factory will explode?"

"You're right, who would choose to live next to a natural gas canning plant? If the plant explodes, none of the occupants will be able to escape." Maeda said, "Of course, there is another one. The reason is that it is too remote. When I first came to the factory to report to the factory, I lost my way, because the path leading to the factory is not on the map at all. Long to add a street sign."

Liu Xing nodded and continued to ask: "That's right, if it wasn't for Jeddah to drive, I don't think I would be able to find this factory, but then again, you won't find it inconvenient to come to work here. There are no supporting facilities around. You should bring your own lunch box for lunch, right? After all, Maeda, didn’t you just say that those old men would definitely not let people start a fire in the factory just to be on the safe side.”

   Hearing Liu Xing say this, Maeda and the two younger brothers next to him couldn't help but put on a helpless expression.

"Yeah, those old men don't allow any kind of open flame source to appear in the factory at all, so we can only bring our lunch to work, and we have to go to the factory director's office at noon every day to line up, because only the factory director's office has a microwave oven. This is because the factory manager can't eat cold, and the old men are willing to give in."

Maeda said a little depressedly: "Mr. Meteor, you also know that punks like us are per capita smokers. After all, for us, who were immature at the time, smoking represented maturity. As a result, after I went to work here, I insisted I succeeded in quitting smoking, because as long as I dared to take out the lighter, I would be kicked out of the factory by those old men, and I would not be allowed to come back until I lost the lighter.”

   "So Maeda, aren't you going to follow us out for a cigarette later?"

   Faced with the temptation of Satoshi Hashimoto, Maeda forgot what he just said, "Of course I'm going, I count on this cigarette to survive every week."

After laughing twice, Liu Xing finally said the question he most wanted to know the answer to, "Hey, I don't remember there seem to be a few cars parked in the parking lot, so Maeda, do you have a special car to pick you up? If it is a special car If you pick them up, you should be going home very late tonight."

Hearing Liu Xing say this, Maeda became even more depressed, "Yes, the employees in the factory are basically picked up by special vehicles, because it is too far from the urban area where we live, and the monthly oil consumption is too far. It’s a huge expense, and…”

   Maeda hesitated.
