Chapter 544 Mixed Feelings
"Hey, Master Li, I was just looking for you."
As soon as he got to work, Li Kailang heard someone calling him and looked over.
"Chief Sun, what do you want from me?"
The person who came was Sun Yongkai from the Purchasing Department. It was he who gave him a radio ticket.
"Business, business. The factory has a batch of grain to be shipped in. Am I not asking you for help?"
"Oh, by the way, this is the task list, take a look."
After saying that, Sun Yongkai handed over a task list. Li Kailang took it and took a closer look. It was indeed a task.
Since there is a task, just follow the procedure.
"Okay, let's get started without further ado. I'll go register."
"Okay, I'm not in a hurry." Sun Yongkai was waiting at the door, while Li Kailang went in to register.
"Alas, I don't know why Director Yang wants me to find Li Kailang. There is more than one driver in the transport team."
"Also, what's the point of stopping by the Ministry of Metallurgy to see the pigs? I didn't know the factory had pigs in the ministry."
Sun Yongkai was totally confused. He didn't know why Director Yang gave him this task out of the blue. He had to think carefully about the deeper meaning behind it.
After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't think of anything.
Li Kailang came out after registering: "Chief Sun, let's go."
"Row."
The two got in the car together, and Li Kailang went straight to the mission location.
"Oh, Master Li, there's one more thing. We'll go to the pig farm of the Ministry of Metallurgy on the way back to bring back the grain."
"On the way? That's not really on the way. We have to take a small detour."
"I didn't say that. Director Yang told me to do that. He said you know about this and asked you to go and see how the piglets in our factory are looking."
"Director Yang said that?"
"Yes, I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask Director Yang now."
"That's not necessary."
Few people in the factory knew about the pigs in the Ministry of Metallurgy. Since Sun Yongkai knew about it, it must have been Director Yang who told him.
Seeing Li Kailang so calm, Sun Yongkai was curious about the origin of the pig and asked out of curiosity.
"Master Li, when will our factory have pigs? How come I didn't know about this? I don't know when we can eat them?"
Since Sun Yongkai is following, he will know it sooner or later. There is no need to hide it.
"It's nothing important. It was given to our factory as a reward by the Ministry after the New Year. However, those pigs were just born and are too small. We will have to wait until next year to eat them."
"Director Yang didn't tell you. They are probably too young. It's not the right time yet. After all, they are all black pigs."
"Black pigs? No wonder. Our local pigs grow slowly. They can't compare to the pigs introduced from outside, which grow very fast." Sun Yongkai nodded.
Looking at Li Kailang who was concentrating on driving, Sun Yongkai felt mixed emotions.
"Oh, by the way, Master Li, will you bring in more food this month?"
Li Kailang was a little slow to react to Sun Yongkai's sudden change of subject, but he continued talking.
"Let's see what Director Yang thinks. If Director Yang wants me to do it, I'll do it. Anyway, it's almost harvest time now, so I probably won't be needed anymore."
As the autumn harvest approached, Li Kailang knew that this business would soon come to an end.
"I don't think so. In fact, it's all thanks to you, Master Li. You've relieved the pressure on our purchasing department."
Li Kailang suddenly became curious: "Oh? What do you mean?"
Sun Yongkai paused and said, "You know, at the beginning of the year, there is not so much food, and Director Yang also offered a reward."
"My purchasing department is responsible for both the food in the factory and the rewards. Several deputy section chiefs have vomited from drinking so much."
Sun Yongkai briefly summarized the hardships that the Purchasing Department had gone through in the past six months, saying that the hardships were too difficult to explain to outsiders.
Thinking about it now, it was really difficult. If Li Kailang hadn't helped ease the purchasing pressure, they wouldn't have known what to do.
"Well, now I've finally made it."
Speaking of this, Sun Yongkai laughed heartily. He had finally made it through and it was almost time for the autumn harvest. After that, he could finally relax.
"I see. Congratulations." Li Kailang congratulated.
Sun Yongkai looked at Li Kailang. The purchasing department had mixed opinions about him, with some gratitude and some resentment.
They were grateful to Li Kailang for helping them ease the food pressure so that they didn’t have to pay out of their own pockets to buy food. The most important thing was that they could have a few days of rest every month.
What makes him angry is that at the end of every month, Li Huaide would always use this incident to criticize their purchasing department, saying that they were not even as good as the drivers.
Purchasing Departments 3 and 4 were scolded many times and were often compared with Li Kailang. How could they justify this? They also wanted to know how Li Kailang got the food.
As for reporting it out of anger, that is even more nonsense.
If this is reported, those workers and employees who have been awarded honors will fight them to the death.
Without Li Kailang, they will have to bear the pressure of the reward in the end.
Reporting it will not benefit them at all, but will only cause them a lot of trouble.
In this case, they can only turn a blind eye and endure it.
They all guessed that Li Kailang must have made a lot of money from it, at least 100 yuan each time, and 500 yuan in a few months.
In this regard, Li Kailang could only say that it was too little, it should be at least tens of thousands of yuan. After all, he only made two or three thousand yuan for each delivery.
Sun Yongkai looked at Li Kailang and said, "Master Li, I wonder if you would like to come to our purchasing department."
"Section Chief Sun, are you trying to bribe me?"
"Yes and no. It all depends on what Master Li thinks. I wonder if Master Li has this plan?"
Li Kailang didn't even think about it: "Forget it, I'm fine staying in the transport team. Besides, my master is here too, so it's not easy for me to leave."
Sun Yongkai nodded: "That's true, Master Li, I was just talking casually, don't take it seriously."
If the last sentence hadn't been said, Li Kailang really wouldn't have cared. But after it was said, Li Kailang thought seriously in his heart about what Sun Yongkai meant by this.
Could it be that he is jealous and wants to kill me because I am stealing his limelight?
That won’t work. The one who strikes first will gain the upper hand, and the one who strikes later will suffer. Li Kailang touched the ring. If there is anything wrong, he will kick it away first and then shoot.
As for the reason, we will tell you later.
Li Kailang was always on guard and finally arrived at the destination and loaded the food onto the truck.
"It seems I'm overthinking it."
Along the way, Sun Yongkai was honest and had no thoughts of persecution.
"Master Li, the food has been loaded onto the truck. Let's get going. With your help, I can also go to the department's pig farm to take a look. I wonder what it looks like?"
"What kind of pig farms can you find? They are all similar. You will know when the time comes."
"is it?"
Trucks loaded with grain headed straight to the pig farm under the Ministry of Metallurgy.
"Lao Wang, it's me. I was here in March and castrated the pigs then."
"It's you, I remember you."
Lao Wang, the person in charge of the pigpen, was impressed by Li Kailang's skill in castrating pigs.
"The factory manager asked me to come over here and see what the pigs here look like. Can you come in and take a look?"
"Is it inconvenient?" Lao Wang let the two people in.
"Master Li, you came at the right time today. We are going to castrate pigs today. Are you here to have some fun?"
"You're here just in time. I told everyone about your skills, but they still didn't believe me. Why don't you show them off today?" "Castrating pigs today? That's really a coincidence. But I just came by chance today. I have something else to do in the factory later, so forget it."
Li Kailang waved his hand and quickly changed the subject.
"Chief Sun, take a look at this pig farm. Is it the same as other pig farms?"
Sun Yongkai nodded: "It is indeed similar, but there are still some things that are not needed. Otherwise, it is the pig farm of the department, which is cleaner than other pig farms."
Old Wang was deeply moved by these words. "Hey, Chief Sun, what you said makes sense. This pig farm is for raising pigs, but people have to stay here too. How can it be unclean? Don't you think so?"
Sun Yongkai nodded: "That's true. How can the place where people stay be unclean? We are human beings."
"That's right." Lao Wang was very satisfied with Sun Yongkai's answer. He finally met someone with the same ideals as him.
Li Kailang looked at Sun Yongkai, not knowing whether he really thought so or was just playing along. But who cares? It was none of his business.
"Lao Wang, I'm going to go see how those piglets in the factory are doing."
"Okay, I'll take you there. These pigs have grown up and are kept in a new pigpen."
As he spoke, Lao Wang quickly led the two men to another pigpen.
The pigs in this pigsty are all about the same size. Look at the other pigsties, some are big and some are small.
At first glance, you can see that they are divided according to body size. Some of the pigs are still very small, probably only 2 months old.
Although these pigs are six months old and have grown several times larger, they are actually not heavy and are far from being edible.
After all, it is a black pig, and its growth rate is much slower than that of a white pig.
"Old Wang, there are a lot more pigs at the pig farm. The last time I came, there were only about a dozen."
"Yes, a lot more. A lot of sows have given birth in the past few months. But this is still a lot less. Many pigs have been taken away. Otherwise, there would be more."
Li Kailang nodded. These pigs were taken away because they were afraid that they would be taken away by other factories, or they were not available when they were needed.
For various reasons, some factories would rather keep the equipment themselves for fear that they will run out of resources when the time comes.
"Uh-huh~"
Suddenly, a series of mournful screams were heard, which Li Kailang heard were so pleasant to the ears, oh no, so familiar.
"The pig castration has started. Master Li, why don't you go take a look?"
Li Kailang nodded: "Okay, I'll also see how other masters castrate."
The last time I came, I castrated them one by one myself. I haven’t seen other masters do it.
Following Lao Wang, the three of them went into the cleansing room to see how the piglets were castrated.
As soon as I entered, I saw an old master with a solemn expression. He squatted down and stared straight ahead.
The piglet's limbs were tied tightly and its body could not stop shaking.
Hehehe! ~
It also makes humming sounds from time to time, as if expressing its fear and dissatisfaction.
It’s a pity that people are at the mercy of others and the pigs are the meat. The pigs’ resistance is so vulnerable in the eyes of people.
hum~
There were still pigs grunting outside, as if they were telling the pigs in the cleansing room to face reality and that this knife would be the end of it.
hum~
The pig was very unwilling and wanted to resist.
"Hey, little darling!" The master holding the knife smiled evilly, shook the knife, then his eyes flashed coldly and he slashed with the knife.
“Hehehe!!!”
"Uh hum~" The pig on the stage couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.
It’s gone, completely gone, is it still a boar?
hum~
Outside the door, after hearing the screams, the pigs couldn't help but nod their heads. They now had a new 'sister', which was a cause for celebration.
"Hehe~" The master put the bloody knife in front of his eyes, pursed his lips and then opened his mouth, with his tongue swirling around his lips.
Then he raised the corners of his mouth and laughed sinisterly twice.
"Is that possible?" Everyone was looking forward to it, wondering if the master wanted to add another bite.
This is pig blood. She is capable of doing such a dirty thing.
The master looked up and saw two people looking at him.
"What are you looking at? I'm not crazy enough to lick pig blood. Are you sick?"
"Oh, what a pity." Li Kailang and Sun Yongkai couldn't help but sigh.
"What's the matter? Are you two disappointed?" The master stood up angrily and looked at the two of them with his index finger raised.
"Eunuch Liu!" Li Kailang looked at the familiar man in front of him.
"Hey, it's you, kid. What's up? Can't make it out there? Are you here to become my disciple? I've said long ago that if you follow me, I guarantee you'll be able to make a living."
"It's a pity that you came too late. If you were born a decade earlier, I would have made you rich and prosperous~"
Eunuch Liu deliberately prolonged the last word.
Sun Yongkai looked at Li Kailang in disbelief, his eyes flickering. Could it be that there is something else going on here?
"Chief Sun, what are you thinking? If you keep looking at me, I'll kill you."
Sun Yongkai was so frightened that he stood with his legs together, covered his hands with his hands, and slowly backed away.
In this place, he had to believe it.
"Eunuch Liu, you are still so nagging. Why would I follow you if I were a good driver? Even if I was born ten years earlier, I would not work with you."
"Hey, you're not afraid of me anymore, kid. Last time I scared you so much that you wanted to run away like a loser." Eunuch Liu said in disbelief.
The last time we met, Li Kailang ran away in a panic. It has only been such a short time since we last met, so how could he be so confident?
"After not seeing you for three days, I have changed my appearance. It has been several months since I last saw you. It won't be that easy for you to scare me again, Eunuch Liu."
Li Kailang was full of vigor and was not afraid of being frightened by Eunuch Liu at all.
Since his Kung Fu has improved, especially after he gained the 'Superman' mode, why would he be afraid of Eunuch Liu?
Even if Eunuch Liu is the top martial arts expert, he has the confidence to fight back a few moves.
If you can't beat him, shoot. If you can dodge one shot, shoot twice.
If two shots don't work, use three shots. If that still doesn't work, use submachine guns and machine guns in turn, and finally add a super bazooka.
There is always one way to punish Eunuch Liu.
Eunuch Liu saw that Li Kailang had changed and was so confident. Decades of life in the palace had made him realize that Li Kailang was not someone he could afford to offend.
He is so confident that if I get unhappy one day, it would be easy to kill him.
"You've made progress, kid. Now that you're here, why don't you show us some skills?" Eunuch Liu held the orchid in his hand and directed the sword player.
"Forget it, I just came to take a look. I have tasks to do in the factory later, so I won't bother you." Li Kailang waved his hand.
"Chief Sun, do you want to see more?"
"No, no." Sun Yongkai waved his hands repeatedly. How could this eunuch Liu's way of castrating pigs be even more evil than that of the pig castrators in the brigade and the village?
He was afraid that if he stayed, he might have to be castrated too. He was still young and had a bright future, and he didn't want to lose his masculinity so soon.
"I'll wait for you by the car." After saying that, he nodded to Lao Wang and left first.
"Lao Wang, I've seen the pigs too, so I won't keep them. See you next time."
"Come often when you have time."
Li Kailang left immediately after him, taking Sun Yongkai with him and heading straight to the steel rolling mill.
Watching the pig farm gradually disappear in the rearview mirror, Sun Yongkai vowed to himself: "I will never come here again."
It's a good thing that he was still thinking about building a good relationship with Lao Wang, but he'd better let it go, lest he gets upset and gets attacked, then he won't even have a place to cry.
