break out of the ice

No one present believed what Gai Xianglin said, including Shi Jingqi.

Shi Jingqi didn't doubt Gai Xianglin's character, but he knew that Gai Xianglin really had no money.

One person questioned, and then a group of people questioned him, and the scene became chaotic and uncontrollable again.

Gai Xianglin didn't know what to say. This middle-aged man who had been in the business world for half his life seemed to have his back bent by the debt this time. He repeated the sentence: "I, Lao Gai, will not owe you all your hard work." money."

Seeing that the young man next to Gai Xianglin was about to grab his collar, Shi Jingqi shouted again: "Calm down, everyone. If you hurt someone, you have to spend money to go to the hospital."

"Are you rich?"

"I'll help you, you guys wait."

When he and Zhu Ke were settling accounts, they were also counting the people in the furniture factory here, but they had less money. Although they paid half of the wages to the people in the freezer factory over there, there was still some left, but it was not enough to give to the furniture factory. These people are paid half the salary.

I originally thought I would make it together today, but now I can only use it for emergencies.

Hearing what Shi Jingqi said, the workshop director who just went to report to Shi Jingqi smoothed things over and said, "Let's just wait for Director Shi. We are all brothers from the same factory. Don't make too much trouble."

I believe that giving Shi Jingqi some face would be more effective than beating up Gai Xianglin.

Everyone knew this, so they all fell silent.

Shi Jingqi jumped off the cabinet and ran towards Xianglin's refrigerator, shouting as he ran: "Wait for me, wait for me."

In such a short time, Zhu Ke had almost paid the wages there. Everyone stayed up all night, and after receiving the money, they all went back to rest.

When Shi Jingqi ran over, Zhu Ke and Wu Guifen were doing the finishing work.

"Have all been distributed? How many are left?"

Zhu Ke gave Wu Guifen a wad of money in his hand and said, "After I gave it to Sister Wu, I only have yours left. What's wrong?"

"There's a commotion over there. It seems like if we don't say anything today, I'm afraid Lao Gai won't be able to escape."

"Then let's go quickly." Zhu Ke said, collected the remaining money and walked this way.

Shi Jingqi looked at the money left in the bag and saw that it was only more than 1 yuan at most. He frowned and said, "Is it enough?"

As he walked, Zhu Ke took out two more wads of money from his coat and said, "I just saw that it was almost enough, so I hid [-]. It should be enough to cope with it. Let's go quickly."

Zhu Kefeng walked in front, and Shi Jingqi followed behind. He once again lamented the viciousness of Xing Lulu's eyes. He was not looking for a female assistant, she was clearly a heroine.

Zhu Ke had no idea that her status in Shi Jingqi's eyes had risen to the level of a heroine. The main reason why she was so interested was to repay Xing Lulu's feelings for her.

If she hadn't met Xing Lulu, and if Xing Lulu hadn't saved her from the feasting and feasting regardless of past suspicions, how could she be standing in the sunshine so refreshed now.

More than 3 yuan was not enough to pay half of the wages at Xianglin Furniture, but the workers finally left after seeing the money.

As soon as the workers left, Gai Xianglin couldn't stand. Zhu Ke, with quick eyesight and quick hands, stepped forward to help him and let him lean against the cabinet where Shi Jingqi was standing just now.

Gai Xianglin looked at the scene of the factory, thinking that a year ago, the factory was still prosperous and prosperous, but within a year, it had become such a dilapidated appearance, and he felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

He took out the car key from his pocket and handed it to Shi Jingqi: "The house is being watched by people from the bank. It is estimated that it cannot be moved. You can try driving this car out and see if you can exchange some money."

Shi Jingqi did not persuade Gai Xianglin to keep the car. Under the current situation, if Gai Xianglin still drove the car, it would only anger those creditors.After putting the car keys away, Shi Jingqi asked: "Brother Gai, think about it again, is there anyone else who owes money to our factory?"

After so many years of business, there are always some old bad debts that will never come back.

Gai Xianglin frowned and thought for a while, then sighed and said, "There really is one..."

After being silent for dozens of seconds, he stood up holding Shi Jingqi's arm and said, "Forget it, let's go for a run. There is a bill of [-] yuan, and I owe it for seven or eight years."

"I'll go with you." Shi Jingqi said, following Gai Xianglin's footsteps.

Zhu Ke no longer cared about keeping a distance from Gai Xianglin, jogged a few steps to follow, and said, "I'll go too, the woman might be useful."

Several people drove out of Wenzhou City.

Shi Jingqi drove, Zhu Ke sat in the passenger seat, and Gai Xianglin directed Shi Jingqi from behind, heading east toward the seaside.

Facing this direction, Shi Jingqi would unconsciously think of the building that led to Gai Xianglin's current situation, and he was suspicious that Gai Xianglin wouldn't direct him to go there.

He had such doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask them. He didn't want to mention this building, let alone Gai Xianglin.

Although Zhu Ke knew that Gai Xianglin lost his property because of his real estate business, she didn't know where the house was.

Seeing that Wenzhou City was getting further and further away, he turned around and asked Gai Xianglin, "Brother Gai, is your creditor at sea?"

Gai Xianglin coughed and looked at the rows of trees receding outside, as if he was lost in some kind of memory, and said, "At the head of the cave."

Shi Jingqi had been in Wenzhou for a long time and had never been to Dongtou, so he turned around and asked, "Do I have to take a boat?"

Gai Xianglin nodded: "The person we are looking for is in the boathouse."

After finishing speaking, he sighed again and said: "There are dozens of houseboats in Dongtou, all built with the help of Xianglin Furniture."

"What is this account?" Gai Xianglin asked.

"They are all fishermen who don't have a place to live. They don't have high incomes. At that time, I helped build the houseboats. I never thought about asking for money. But now they come to them. I can't help them." Gai Xianglin's voice was a little low. You can hear the conflict in his heart.

There was silence in the car, and both Shi Jingqi and Zhu Ke understood why Gai Xianglin had reached this point and hadn't asked for the account yet.

After a long time, Shi Jingqi said: "Let's go take a look first."

There is no other way but to go and see.

After finding the place, what caught the eyes of the three people was a cluster of houseboats. One boat after another, connected in series with iron chains and built with wooden boards, they formed a large area on the seaside, like a village on the sea. .

On the shore, on the deck, there are women washing clothes, drying fishing nets, and children running around and playing.

A woman recognized Gai Xianglin and came over excitedly, wiping her hands and saying, "Boss Gai, why are you here? Come on, come on, sit down in the room."

Gai Xianglin forced a smile and waved his hand: "No, no, no, is Lao Yu here?"

"Here he is, he's here, I'll let the guys look for him." (End of Chapter)
