Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1004 Li Fuyou Like a Beggar

Yu Simi let out a sigh, and guessed: "Perhaps before you agreed to Li Muxiao, his sister had already left early, and now she has arrived, do you want to see her?"

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at his watch first, then nodded: "It's only early ten o'clock, there is still some time, you can call the guard room and ask them to bring you here."

Yu Simei agreed, picked up the walkie-talkie and conveyed Niu Xiaoqiang's meaning to the guard room.

In less than 3 minutes, someone knocked on the office door: "Secretary Niu, someone has already been brought here."

Yu Simei opened the door without waiting for Niu Xiaoqiang to speak, and invited Li Muxiao's sister in.

Seeing this woman for the first time, Niu Xiaoqiang showed surprise.The woman in front of her had hair as messy as a chicken coop, her clothes were tattered and patched in many places, and her hands and face were covered with chilblains. After she entered the office, she lowered her head and dared not speak, as if waiting for the verdict of fate.

Niu Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "You are Li Muxiao's sister, Li Fuyou, right? Please sit down, sister Yu, please pour me a cup of tea for Miss Li, and bring her something to eat by the way."

Yu Simi looked at Niu Xiaoqiang with doubts, and said to herself: How do you know that this woman hasn't eaten?
While thinking so, Yu Simei poured tea according to Niu Xiaoqiang's instructions, and handed her biscuits to Li Fuyou.

Li Fuyou didn't say a word when he entered the room, and he didn't pick up the steaming tea and scallion biscuits, but just stared blankly at the tea and biscuits.

Yu Simi and Niu Xiaoqiang didn't speak, because they noticed that Li Fuyou's eyes were slightly red, and he looked very sad.

After a while, Niu Xiaoqiang said: "Miss Li, you fill your stomach first, and we can talk after eating and drinking."

Li Fuyou nodded slightly, eating biscuits and drinking tea while dripping tears.She was obviously very hungry, and she ate and drank very fast, and swept away the tea and biscuits without much work.

Seeing her wolfing down, Yu Simi seemed to be quite moved, and couldn't help but her eyes turned red, and she asked with concern, "Miss Li, do you want to eat more?"

Niu Xiaoqiang knew why Yu Simei was so touched. The reason was that she had experienced such things before.At the beginning when she ran away from her uncle's house, Yu Simei suffered a lot. At the worst, she was no different from a beggar.Li Fuyou's appearance reminded her of those things in the past, and she was touched.

Li Fuyou shook his head in embarrassment, wiped his mouth clean with his dirty sleeves, and then said, "Thank you, no need, I'm not so hungry anymore."

Niu Xiaoqiang roughly guessed Li Fuyou's experiences in the past few days, and he couldn't help asking: "Miss Li, did you walk all the way from your hometown to Aoshan alone?"

Li Fuyou nodded: "En."

Yu Simi was surprised and said, "If I remember correctly, Li Muxiao is from Lin Province, right? It seems that there are several hundred kilometers away from your home to Aoshan. How did you make it this far?"

"I went to the city on a tractor from my hometown, and then sneaked on a cargo ship bound for Qingjiang in the city. After arriving at Qingjiang with the boat, I inquired all the way, from Qingjiang to Aoshan."

Qingjiang is a bit far from Aoshan. Due to the twists and turns of the road, it will take at least three days to walk. It is just the beginning of spring and the weather is very cold. Hearing this, Yu Simi subconsciously asked: "It's such a cold day, how are you at night?" How did it go?"

Li Fuyou said in a low voice, "At night, I'll drill into the straw pile, keep warm in the straw pile, and wait until dawn before I go on my way."

Yu Simi glanced at Niu Xiaoqiang with pity in his eyes.

Niu Xiaoqiang knew what Yu Simei meant, she wanted her to arrange work for Li Fuyou as soon as possible, otherwise Li Fuyou would be a waste of time, and his survival would be a problem in the future.

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "Miss Li, does your family know about your visit to Aushan?"

Li Fuyou whispered: "My mother doesn't know, but my brother knows. He was the one who encouraged me to come to Aushan. He said that if I stayed in my hometown, I would have to live a miserable life. If I want to change the status quo , you have to fight.”

Niu Xiaoqiang snorted and said with a smile: "Just yesterday, your younger brother came to me personally and begged me to arrange a job for you, so I notified the guards in advance and asked them to pay attention to your physical characteristics, otherwise you will be considered to have found Asia Machinery." The factory, the guards will not let you in, it seems that you and your brother have a very good relationship."

Li Fuyou hummed: "I grew up with him, and he took good care of me and treated me very well."

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't want to inquire about other people's housework. In fact, he had already guessed that Li Fuyou must be often bullied by Li Muxiao's mother. Asking too much would only add to his sadness.

He returned to the topic: "Miss Li, do you have any specialties? Or what kind of work do you like?"

Li Fuyou knew that this was an excellent opportunity to change her destiny, and she didn't want to miss it. She summoned up her courage and said, "I know some mechanical design knowledge. As long as it is not too difficult, I can design mechanical equipment."

Niu Xiaoqiang knew that her father used to be the chief engineer specializing in aircraft design, so it is estimated that Li Fuyou, like Li Muxiao, learned all the knowledge from her father.

Niu Xiaoqiang has always attached great importance to talents, and Li Fuyou is so pitiful, so naturally he will not make things difficult on purpose.

After thinking about paying for a while, Niu Xiaoqiang took out a pen and paper and handed it over: "In order to better arrange work for you, so that you can use the knowledge you have mastered, I want to do a simple assessment for you. It doesn’t need to be so detailed, just draw a simple graphic.”

Li Fuyou nodded, took the pen and paper with his hands full of chilblains, and began to draw seriously.

Taking advantage of her drawing time, Yu Simei walked out.When Li Fu Youba finished drawing, Yu Simei just returned.She had an extra set of clothes in her hand, and a bottle of ointment for chilblains.

Niu Xiaoqiang picked up the drawings to look at, and Yu Simi took the opportunity to pass the clothes and ointment to Li Fuyou, and said in a low voice, "Go and change your clothes with me, and wash up by the way, and apply the chilblain medicine."

Li Fuyou's personality is a bit like Yu Simei's, they are very shy.She shook her head embarrassedly: "I...I have no money to pay you..."

Yu Simei said in a slow tone: "I gave you this set of clothes, you don't need money, and the ointment doesn't need money either."

Li Fuyou nodded quite touched, his eyes were red: "Thank you sister, ever since my father passed away, no one has been so kind to me..."
