Chapter 158 Li Kailang, the innocent victim

Chapter 158 Li Kailang, the innocent victim

"stop!"

In the distance, a man was running towards them in a hurry, shouting, and there was another person following behind him.

Ling Xing looked at the person who came, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he quickly adjusted himself and directly ordered:

"Don't worry about him! Beat him up! I'll be responsible if anything goes wrong!"

Li Kailang did not hesitate at all. He used the techniques of Bajiquan to quickly deal with the younger brothers present.

His movements were as fast as lightning. Within three punches and two kicks, those people had fallen to the ground one after another.

Only Ling Xing was left standing there, his face livid.

"Boy, you dare to resist me?" Ling Xing stared at Li Kailang, his eyes full of resentment and anger, "I want you to know the consequences of going against me!"

"Okay! I want to see how capable you are!" Li Kailang stared back at Ling Xing without fear.

"Good boy, you're looking for death!" Ling Xing angrily made a starting move, looking quite majestic.

However, just as he was about to attack Li Kailang, the man running towards him in the distance shouted again:
"stop!"

Ling Xing, however, acted as if he didn't hear anything and continued to rush towards Li Kailang.

Li Kailang quickly took a defensive stance, ready to deal with Ling Xing's attack.

However, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.

Just when Ling Xing was about to attack, he suddenly changed direction and ran backwards.

This sudden change caught Li Kailang off guard and left everyone present stunned.

Even the two people who came running almost fell to the ground.

"Damn, only a fool would fight with you!" Ling Xing shouted while running.

"Wait till I call the security guards, and I'll see how long you can continue to be so arrogant!"

He has been dominating for so long and has never met anyone who dares to resist.

"I'm sorry, master. We are embarrassed to have such a person in our factory!" Ge Tianzhang said apologetically.

"Indeed, it's your factory's misfortune!" Li Kailang replied bluntly.

"Uh" Ge Tianzhang was suddenly speechless. He just said it casually, but he didn't expect Li Kailang to respond.

"Comrade, are you okay? The steel is not damaged, right?" Ji Gong who was behind also ran over and asked breathlessly.

"I'm fine, but one of the steel pieces is broken. He broke it!"

Li Kailang pointed out that he should not take the blame for the person who broke the body.

"One is fine! One is fine!" Ji Gong patted his chest and said.

He picked up the broken steel, looked at the man with anger on his face, and said, "You don't need to come tomorrow. Wait until you go back to the finance office to settle your wages."

After saying that, he looked at the carriage full of steel and wanted to go up and take a look.

"Hey, comrade, please don't touch it! This one is broken!" Li Kailang quickly stopped him.

"It's okay, it's okay. They have been delivered. It's okay for me to take a look!" Ji Gong said.

"That won't work. Someone said that if one of them is broken, your factory won't accept it."

"This one is broken, I can't give it to you, it breaks the rules!"

After saying that, Li Kailang took back the damaged steel from Ji Gong.

"It is our fault. We are really sorry. Let me apologize to you on his behalf." said Ji Gong, director of the accessories workshop.

His face was full of apologies and his tone was sincere, and it was obvious that he really wanted to make up for this mistake.

If there is a delay due to a piece of steel, it will take two days to go back and forth, which is unacceptable for Ji Gong.

Similarly, as the captain of the transport team, Ge Tianzhang needs to deliver the finished parts in a timely manner to ensure the smooth progress of the entire production process.

Therefore, when Li Kailang refused to hand over the steel, the two men's attitudes immediately became anxious.

Li Kailang heard the urgency in their words and laughed inwardly.

"It seems that this batch of steel is very important to you! Then I can't give it to you!"

Offensive and defensive types have changed!
At this moment, Li Kailang took the initiative!
He walked directly into the carriage and stood on the pile of steel. With just a little force, he could destroy all the steel.

In this way, the initiative is completely in his hands.

Seeing Li Kailang's actions, Ji Gong and Ge Tianzhang immediately became nervous.

If the steel is damaged, the consequences will be disastrous.

"No, no, no, Master, be careful! Be careful!"

"Master, we can discuss this. There's no need to do this!"

The two of them quickly spoke out to stop him.

"Well, I'll go talk to the leader and ask him to punish Ling Xing. Do you think this is okay?" Ji Gong suggested.
As the director of the accessories workshop, he had never been as helpless as he was today.

But considering the urgency of the task, he had no time to waste.

If this mission is successfully completed, his position is expected to be further promoted.

Compared with getting a promotion, a moment of frustration is nothing.

"Okay, then you go and report it. If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today, don't blame me for being rude!" Li Kailang did not make things difficult for them.

Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. These 5 tons of steel are very valuable and he does not have enough money to pay for it.

Besides, these are the result of the hard work of the workers in the third workshop. If he damages these steels because of his selfishness, he will be a sinner.

Of course the most important thing is that the steel here is very important, if it is damaged.

At that time, if a worker is charged with destroying means of production, going to jail would be a minor matter, but he might be shot.

There was no way Li Kailang would get himself involved in a momentary dispute.

"Okay, okay, I'll go find it now! Please wait a moment." Ji Gong responded quickly.

"Okay, okay, I'll report it right away! Please wait a moment." Ji Gong responded hurriedly.

He did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and immediately turned around and left to inform his superiors.

Just then, a voice came from a distance: "Don't look for me anymore, I'm here!"

Everyone turned around and saw a middle-aged man striding towards them, followed by the shifty-looking Ling Xing.

With his brother-in-law Xiang Junsheng around, Ling Xing seemed to be energized. He held his head high and chest puffed out, with a smug smile on his face.

He seemed to feel that he had a backer and could act recklessly here.

"Deputy Director Xiang, I was just looking for you. Look at what Ling Xing has done. If it disrupts the factory's production..."

Xiang Junsheng interrupted directly, "Director Ji, you don't need to tell me about such trivial matters. But the master behind you beat so many workers in our factory. Isn't that a bit too much?"

Xiang Junsheng said coldly, with a threatening tone in his voice.

"Deputy Director Xiang, from what you said, do you want to protect Ling Xing?" Ji Gong insisted.

"Do you know how important this batch of steel is?"

Xiang Junsheng didn't care and waved his hand, "Now is not the time to discuss this batch of steel. The most important thing now is that he beat up our factory workers."

He pointed at Li Kailang and said, "If there is no explanation, how will the workers in our factory view this?"

"Director Ji, look at the workers behind you."

Xiang Junsheng continued, “If we don’t protect our workers today, how can we protect them in the future?”

Ji Gong looked at the workers who were filled with righteous indignation and knew that they were stirred up by Xiang Junsheng's few words.

"Deputy Director Xiang, you'd better take care of yourself." Ji Gong said this and didn't care anymore.

Compared with his own future, Li Kailang is insignificant.

"Master, I don't know what happened between you." Xiang Junsheng said with a smile.

"But you beat our workers, and we want an explanation for this, or we won't let you go!"

"Well, what do you want to say?"

Li Kailang was interested. He wanted to see what these people were trying to do.

"It's very simple. Let those who are hit by you hit you back, and don't fight back!" Xiang Junsheng said with a smile.

"Oh, what you mean is that you want me to stand still and get beaten for nothing."

"Correct!"

"I can't do that. You should try another one."

"What? With so many people here, do you want to refuse my order?" Xiang Junsheng shouted.

Looking at Xiang Junsheng's self-righteous and indiscriminate look, Li Kailang found it hard to believe that this guy was actually a leader.

"I just refuse. So what? Are you dissatisfied?" Li Kailang pulled out a pistol from behind.

This action terrified everyone present, and they all fled in panic. The scene was in chaos.

Looking at Xiang Junsheng, who was like a straw bag and running away with his head in his hands, Li Kailang became more certain that this guy was just a show-off.

"Don't move! Try moving again!" Li Kailang shouted.

"Bang!" A gunshot hit Xiang Junsheng's side.

"Ah!" Xiang Junsheng collapsed to the ground.

"Stop!" A loud shout came from a distance, breaking the tense atmosphere. "Bang!" A man in security uniform fired a shot into the air.

The gunshot made the already tense atmosphere even more tense.

I saw three people coming from a distance.

Let's not talk about the people in security uniforms for now. The main thing is the other two.

One had a solemn and serious face, as if he had experienced many storms.

The other seemed a little frivolous but managed to maintain his dignity.

It forms a sharp contrast with the former.

"Uncle Yao, Director Yao!" Xiang Junsheng found his life-saving straw and shouted excitedly.

At this moment, he was sitting on the ground in a very ungraceful manner, obviously having been frightened.

Fu Zhongzheng looked at Xiang Junsheng and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.

Yao Wenzhi walked up to Li Kailang and said seriously.

"Comrade, what are you doing? How dare you shoot in our factory? Do you want to kill someone?"

But Li Kailang looked at his face and didn't feel serious at all.

"Director Yao, I believe this master must have his own difficulties, otherwise he would not have opened fire in the factory for no reason. He must have encountered some injustice.

"Isn't that right, Master?" Fu Zhongzheng said, looking at Li Kailang.

"Yes, these people just now..." Li Kailang was about to explain.

"Is that so? Deputy Director Xiang!" Yao Wenzhi asked loudly to Xiang Junsheng, interrupting Li Kailang's explanation.

Xiang Junsheng immediately understood what his uncle meant and nodded:
"Yes, this master dared to beat our workers without knowing right or wrong."

"Look at these workers, they all have bruises all over their bodies. Now they dare to point guns at us. They must want to kill us."

The workshop director Ji Gong stepped forward and said, "Xiang Junsheng, stop talking nonsense. We know exactly what happened. It was you who was rude to the master."

"Director Ji, please explain clearly. I don't believe that an outsider master would draw his gun without saying anything innocent." Fu Zhongzheng said seriously.

"Yes, Secretary Fu." Ji Gong was about to explain.

Yao Wenzhi said impatiently: "Secretary Fu, what is there to explain? The actions of this master are very clear. He beat people and shot people. What else is there to say?"

Fu Zhongzheng was very dissatisfied when he heard this: "Director Yao, you can't say that."

"This master may have encountered an emergency situation and thus acted like this. We need to understand the truth of the matter."

Li Kailang was watching the confrontation. What else could he not understand? It must be a power struggle between two high-ranking officials.

Li Kailang is just an excuse for dispute.

Seeing this, Li Kailang didn't plan to say anything more. He just watched the two people fighting quietly and took out melon seeds from his "pocket".

He transformed himself into a spectator, leisurely eating melon seeds and watching the two people compete.

From their conversation, Li Kailang learned that Deputy Factory Director Xiang Junsheng actually had no real talent or knowledge, and was promoted to this position entirely with the support of his uncle Yao Wenzhi.

Yao Wenzhi, on the other hand, wanted to keep a firm grip on his base before getting promoted.

So he promoted the incompetent Xiang Junsheng to be the factory director, and he himself took control of the overall situation.

Secretary Fu Zhongzheng wants to bring down Xiang Junsheng and destroy Yao Wenzhi's ideas.

Yao Wenzhi was also the candidate selected by the previous leader. He relied on his own base to consolidate his position.

If Xiang Junsheng were allowed to take over as factory director, the standard parts factory might be destroyed, which is something Fu Zhongzheng does not want to see.

Fu Zhongzheng stared at Yao Wenzhi with sharp eyes and said, "Yao Wenzhi, you may not know the importance of this batch of steel, right?"

"What do you mean?" Yao Wenzhi's tone revealed a hint of fear.

Yao Wenzhi was promoted from deputy director of logistics, and like Li Huaide, he knew nothing about production.

Fu Zhongzheng sneered: "This batch of steel was designated by the higher-ups. If it cannot be delivered on time, do you know what the consequences will be?"

"Even if you have the support of the people above, I'm afraid they can't protect you."

Yao Wenzhi turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat, but he still remained calm.

He knew what the above meant. The name of the Standard Parts Factory revealed that the parts produced by their factory were all in accordance with standards, and therefore they were particularly popular among certain military industries.

Once they fail to deliver on time, the military industry will likely consider changing manufacturers. Once there is a problem with the military industry's orders, it will be difficult for the people above to keep them.

As long as there are no problems with military industry orders, they are settled on the spot, ensuring the flow of funds.

This is crucial for the capital circulation and other business development of standard parts factories.

At the same time, they also rely on this reputation to make achievements in other areas.

To put it bluntly, everything they do is centered on the reputation of the military industry. They can choose not to do other things, but not the military industry.

Looking at Yao Wenzhi's frightened expression, Fu Zhongzheng felt secretly happy.

"Now this master."

Fu Zhongzheng struck while the iron was hot and was about to continue introducing the importance of this batch of steel. However, when his eyes fell on Li Kailang, he was stunned.

Li Kailang was eating melon seeds while standing on steel in an unruly manner, with melon seed shells scattered on the ground.

His unpresentable behavior left Fu Zhongzheng speechless for a moment.

"Hehe, you guys continue, you guys continue, don't bother me!" Li Kailang stretched out his hand and gestured.

"Ahem~" Fu Zhongzheng also coughed twice, calmed down a bit, and then continued:
"The steel under this master's feet is an important raw material for our production. If this master is not careful and damages this batch of steel, our factory will be..."

Fu Zhongzheng stopped there.

How could Yao Wenzhi not understand Fu Zhongzheng's meaning? His eyes immediately became gloomy.

He stared at Xiang Junsheng, secretly wondering how to deal with this situation.

"Secretary Fu, I don't know anything about this. This is all Xiang Junsheng's personal behavior. I have no idea about it."

Yao Wenzhi immediately distanced himself from the matter and looked at Fu Zhongzheng with an innocent face.

"Yao" Xiang Junsheng was about to open his mouth to defend himself but was interrupted by Yao Wenzhi.

"Shut up, Xiang Junsheng! Everyone is responsible for their own actions. You have to take responsibility for the mistakes you made. Don't try to slander others." Yao Wenzhi shouted sternly.

"Director Yao has such ideological awareness. It seems that our factory can still be saved."

Fu Zhongzheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he realized that it was not so easy to bring down Yao Wenzhi.

He is not a fool like Xiang Junsheng who can be easily exploited.

Fu Zhongzheng knew very well that it was not easy to bring down Yao Wenzhi in one go.

After talking about Xiang Junsheng, Yao Wenzhi said to Li Kailang in a friendly manner:

"Master, it was Xiang Junsheng's fault just now. I asked him to apologize to you."

His expression towards Li Kailang did not change at all as it did at the beginning.

"What are you looking at? Go and apologize!" Xiang Junsheng hesitated for a moment, but still walked towards Li Kailang.

He lowered his head and said, "Master, I'm sorry, I was wrong just now, please forgive me."

Li Kailang looked at Xiang Junsheng's aggrieved look and couldn't help laughing:

"Come on, I can't afford an apology from my leader."

"Master, look at what you said. It is the greatest virtue to correct one's mistakes as soon as one realizes them. How can he not apologize just because he is a leader?" Yao Wenzhi spoke in a set manner.

Li Kailang couldn't help but frowned after hearing what Yao Wenzhi said.

He looked at the smiling tiger-like factory director in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

He won't be fooled by such hypocritical faces.

"Director Yao, an apology alone is not enough. There must be some actual punishment, right?" Fu Zhongzheng said with a smile.

Looking at his evil smile, Yao Wenzhi knew that this matter would not end well.

"Secretary Fu is right. There will definitely be punishment."

After this incident, Xiang Junsheng was directly suspended from his post and investigated.

Workers such as Ling Xing were also directly fired.

Finally, the standard parts factory compensated Li Kailang another two hundred yuan, and the matter was settled!
Everyone left, and Li Kailang didn't plan to stay after unloading the steel.

Drive away before the sun sets completely.

"Tell me, why are you looking for trouble?" Yao Wenzhi criticized Xiang Junsheng.

"Uncle Yao, it was not you who asked me to deliberately find trouble to deal with Fu Zhongzheng." Xiang Junsheng said aggrievedly.

"Can't you open your fucking eyes? If you want to trouble someone, you have to find the right person. Don't trouble everyone. You almost got me killed!" Yao Wenzhi said angrily.

"Go home now and I'll find an opportunity to reinstate you." Yao Wenzhi said unhappily.

"Thank you Uncle Yao!" Xiang Junsheng said happily.

"Get out!" Yao Wenzhi waved his hand and Xiang Junsheng ran away immediately.

"Secretary Fu, let's just leave it at that. I think there is still a chance to bring down Yao Wenzhi." Ji Gong said.
"There's no hope. This little thing can't be blamed on him. Besides, Yao Wenzhi has completely shirked his responsibility."

"But I can't bear to let it go like this!" Ji Gong

"Don't worry, this is only the first time. There will be more opportunities in the future. Take your time. We will overthrow Yao Wenzhi one day. We must not let bad practices spread in the standard parts factory."
