Chapter 46: Even the victims of the disaster have to be robbed of their food
Because Lu Yao came so frequently today, both the winery and the paper mill knew this owner.
They all heard what Lu Yao said outside, and they felt from the bottom of their hearts that the boss in front of them was a truly good person. If it were someone else, it would have been good to just give you a little salary, but how could he provide food, accommodation and take care of your family?
.
As soon as Lu Yao entered the winery, he was immediately greeted by someone. This was the steward arranged by the Cao family in the winery, his name was Cao Jiu, and he was said to be a distant relative of Cao Yi.
Cao Yi invested tens of thousands of dollars at once, but it would not work without sending someone he trusted to watch over it. This was something Lu Yao also allowed.
Cao Jiu thinks it's okay, just don't point fingers and know your position.
Lu Yao also introduced his fifth cousin Lu Qiu to Cao Jiu, and asked the two of them to look after the winery together. Lu Yao would convey anything he had to say on his behalf.
Cao Jiu had no objection. Cao Ji had already given instructions before coming to the winery, telling him to read more and talk less.
Lu Yao came to the winery mainly to see whether the workers, who had been training for several days, had mastered the steps of making wine proficiently.
The steps of making wine are completely separated. The person who dryes the grains is only responsible for drying the grains, and the person who seals the jars is only responsible for sealing the jars. This can not only ensure the rapid operation of the winery, but also ensure that the winemaking process is not leaked.
Lu Yao is most concerned about the problem of waterwheels. Using water power to drive some simple machinery will save a lot of labor.
Just as he was about to ask Cao Jiu to take him to the waterwheel, he saw a guard from the Cao family hurried over and whispered a few words in Cao Jiu's ear.
Cao Jiu immediately became angry and cursed: "This kind of thing still happens, this person is still so bold."
Lu Yao looked at Cao Jiu curiously. What could make him so angry? Could it be about Cao Guojiu?
Just go shopping, you don’t need to accompany me.”
Cao Jiu shook his head and said, "It's not the Cao family's business. Just when Erlang entered the winery, a man suddenly rushed into the place where food was distributed to the victims, trying to grab something to eat."
"What the fuck!!!" Lu Yao was instantly furious. It turned out that it was his business to do this for a long time. Someone came to rob the food he spent a hundred yuan on. It was really unreasonable.
"I want to see who is so bold and dares to attack me, Lu Yao, and see if I don't kill him." Lu Yao ran out holding the nail rake leaning against the wall.
He shouted while running: "Who is so shameless? You even rob the victims of food. You are really a guy who has no butt to give birth to a child. Your family has been completely embarrassed by you."
When Lu Yao arrived at the scene, the gangster had already been restrained.
These foods are the lives of the victims. If someone comes to snatch them, they are killing them. They will definitely be beaten.
A group of victims swarmed forward, and the gangster didn't last long before he was pinned down by more than ten people.
But why did Lu Yao look at this gangster holding a pot in his arms?
And this pot looked so familiar, it was exactly the one he personally selected in the morning.
Wasn't this pot always burning on the fire?
Lu Yao wanted to ask the gangster, is it really not hot to hold him like this?
The gangster was still unconvinced and shouted: "Let me go quickly. If I hadn't been hungry and had no strength in my hands, I would have picked off dozens of you with one hand."
Lu Yao laughed angrily, "The sample is still stubborn. If I don't give you some color to see, you don't know why the flowers are so red."
Seeing Lu Yao coming, the victims consciously made way for a passage.
One person knelt on the ground and cried to Lu Yao, "This guy is quite disgusting. The victims of the disaster were almost starving to death, and yet he came to snatch food. I pitied someone's bowl of porridge. After he took a sip, he was eaten by this guy."
Knocked over."
Lu Yao stretched out his hand and pulled the man away. His attention was all on the gangster and he didn't have time to listen to him. "Stop crying. I'll ask someone to give you another bowl later. It's a big bowl, okay."
Bar."
The man immediately stopped crying and stood watching the show with a smile.
Lu Yao pointed a nail rake at the gangster and cursed: "What are your intentions? Didn't you see the people around you? You also robbed their food. Your conscience won't hurt."
The gangster snorted coldly, "What I am robbing is not their food, but the food of profiteers like you who are greedy for wealth and have no mercy."
"Am I unkind for the sake of wealth?" Lu Yao pointed at himself and said with a smile: "I gave food to the victims, but am I unkind for the sake of wealth? Brother, you have got the wrong person."
The gangster sneered: "You think I don't know. I've been observing this place for several days. You gave them food just to recruit workers, so that they could work for you wholeheartedly. We slept next to the wall for several months, but we didn't see you."
Give me a meal and porridge, and now that I’m recruiting workers, I’m here to be a good person. Where did you go a few months ago?”
Lu Yao touched the tip of his nose and felt a little embarrassed. A few months ago, he was still sitting in an office in the future life. How could he know about this kind of thing? Besides, he couldn't live with it. It was a bit embarrassing for the gangster to talk like this.
"What you said is a bit wrong. You have been staying outside Bianliang City. You should know that Bao Longtu found a son of an official a month ago, and that person is me. I am also a month ago.
I just arrived in Bianliang not long ago. I saw the hardship of the victims, so I saved up money in this month to open this factory. It is to provide work for relief so that they can have a place to work and eat. Do you think I call it being rich and unkind?
?" Lu Yao said, staring into the gangster's eyes. His firm eyes made the gangster afraid to look at him.
"That's right, my boss is the biggest good person in Bianliang City. How can you say that he is rich and unkind? We will all be able to live a stable life in the future. This is all brought by our boss."
The surrounding victims were all defending Lu Yao, which made Lu Yao feel jealous. The money was not wasted.
"I...I..." The gangster faltered and was speechless. Unexpectedly, Lu Yao was not who he thought. He really robbed the wrong person.
The gangster pushed the pot in his arms, and reluctantly let go of his hands, saying in a low voice: "I wrongly blamed you, so I will return the food to you. I just hope you don't send me to see the official."
Lu Yao didn't expect this person to be so principled. It is said that knowing mistakes can greatly improve things.
Lu Yao planned to give him a chance. Who hasn't made a mistake yet?
"Let him go!" Lu Yao said.
"But... we are afraid that if we let him go, he will hurt his boss. Although this man is thin, he is really strong. It took more than ten of us to barely restrain him." The victim who was suppressing the gangster looked hesitant.
"Just let me go if I ask you to. It's not that easy for ordinary people to hurt me. Besides, I don't look like a bad person. I guess I did this kind of thing because I was hungry. No matter how you put it,
He is a poor man, why bother him?" Lu Yao said.
The victims reluctantly let the criminals go.
The gangster stood up, wiped the dust off his body, cupped his hands towards Lu Yao and said, "I was blind and saw the wrong person. I will keep your righteousness in mind."
The gangster turned to leave, but was stopped by Lu Yao, "Hey, you forgot to take your things."
"Things?" The gangster was very confused. He came here with bare hands, how could he leave something behind?
Lu Yao pointed to the iron pot on the ground and said, "Take the pot and the food back. You must have some hungry family members at home. If you take the food back and let them have a full meal, it will be considered a piece of mine."
Mind."
"Someone..." The gangster knelt on the ground, his eyes reddened instantly, and he was very excited. There were indeed hungry people in his family. They had not eaten for several days, and he could not refuse Lu Yao's gift.
"Your great kindness and kindness will never be forgotten by Tangxi." After saying this, Tangxi kowtowed three times on the ground, held the pot in one hand, and ran away wiping tears with the other.
Cao Jiu looked at Lu Yao doubtfully and asked, "Just let Mr. Lu go like this?"
Lu Yao rolled his eyes at Cao Jiu and said, "Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. You don't understand my realm."
After that, he shouted to the victims: "You go and eat quickly. You are all full. You will be able to work later."
Early the next morning, Lu Yao came to the factory again.
Yesterday, those workers didn't know the purpose of the water tanker. Yesterday, I couldn't make these workers understand. Yesterday, I asked them to install all the facilities next to the water tanker. Today, he demonstrated it with his own hands. He didn't believe that you could do it even after watching it for a day.
I don't understand, there are so many people and not one of them is smart.
Sure enough, it is not as straightforward as the demonstration. After two demonstrations, most of them already understand it. The next step is to familiarize yourself with the process. After doing it a few more times, I will probably understand it better than him.
Lu Yao was about to go see how the foundations of the pig farm and resettlement houses for the victims were being dug, when he saw Lu Qiu running in front of him, "Thirteenth brother, the man from yesterday is here again."
"Yesterday, who?" Lu Yao was really busy this day, and Lu Qiu was a little stunned when he suddenly said this.
Lu Qiu explained: "It's the one who came to steal food yesterday. Today he didn't come alone. He also brought seventeen or eight big men with him, and they were all standing by the river?"
"Why is he here again? I didn't give him food yesterday, so why do you still want me to give him some today? Cousin, you are here watching the digging of the foundation. I'll go see what's going on." After speaking, Lu Yao said
Then he walked towards the Bianhe River.
He couldn't give alms again and again. He had done his best to give him food out of kindness. If he still wanted to get something for nothing, I'm sorry, Lu Yao would never give it again.
Seeing Lu Yao approaching, Tangxi called to his brothers to kneel down, "Thank you so much for saving your life. Let's come to express our gratitude."
"You don't have to mind, one pot of food is nothing to me. You don't have to be grateful. Remember not to do things like grabbing things in the future. Not everyone is as kind as me. If you were someone else, I wouldn't beat you half to death.
, I will send you to the government to eat in prison." Lu Yao waved his hand and said.
"It's a small thing for our benefactor, but it's a big deal for our lives. If it weren't for yesterday's pot of thick porridge, the brothers behind me would have starved to death yesterday. A few of us have already discussed that we will do cattle work for our benefactor in the future.
The horse repays the kindness." Tangxi said with tears.
Lu Yao became interested. He happened to be short of some workers and guards, and these people came at the right time.
