Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 21 Catch the Thief
"It's a good time to come back. Do you like the wonton stuffed with shrimp or meat?"

After Ding Xiawei heard the sound of Xu Jichang entering the room, she turned her back and asked him, without asking what Xu Jichang was doing.

From her point of view, Xu Jichang was already an adult, so she didn't need to ask too many detailed questions.

"Shrimp stuffing."

Xu Jichang said, coming behind Ding Xiawei and hugging her.

"Oh, I'm working."

Ding Xiawei complained in a low voice.

"Don't delay your work."

Xu Jichang continued to hug her slender waist without letting go, and began to bravely climb the peak and pick great fruits.

Ding Xiawei was so tormented that she couldn't help it. It took three times the usual time to finish wrapping the wontons.

At night, Xu Jichang took Ding Xiawei to prevent her from going to sleep.Ding Xiawei had no choice but to kneel obediently in front of him again.

……

……

The next morning, when Ding Xiawei got up to take a shower, she took out the mirror and looked at it and felt that something was wrong.

Her cheeks were so sore, and occasionally they twitched uncontrollably, which made her look a little weird.

Xu Jichang came to the sink, Ding Xiawei didn't need to open his mouth to see her distress: "Just a hot compress."

Cheek soreness is a typical muscle fatigue, and hot compress can perfectly solve it.

Ding Xiawei glanced at Xu Jichang depressedly: "How do you know this..."

A while later, Xu Jichang and Ding Xiawei finished eating the wontons she made and went to work together.

Today, there are a few colleagues sitting in the office of the security department, Xu Jichang said hello to them, and they are regarded as acquaintances.

These days, state-owned enterprises do have newcomers who make hot water for the entire office and mop the floor in the morning, but the premise is that the office is full of senior qualifications.

In a newly established unit like Dongfang Chemical Fertilizer Factory, most of the employees are young people who have only been here for a few years. Except for the leaders, they are peers, so they can't play the game of mopping the floor with tea.

Xu Jichang stayed on his seat for a while, filled out a few forms that had just been printed by the division office, handed them over to Director Qian, and then went to the third workshop with a stick in his hand.

When he arrived at the workshop, the workers hadn't started working yet, most of them were chatting and playing cards, and a few were standing in front of the operating table practicing their skills, presumably preparing for becoming a full-time employee and taking the promotion exam.

When will I be able to rectify myself?

Xu Jichang stared at the ceiling of the workshop and muttered in his heart.

After becoming a regular, you can increase your salary, improve your treatment, and have the opportunity to be promoted from now on.You must know that temporary workers do not have to be promoted. If you can't become a regular worker, you can only stand still for as long as you work.

"Rumble..."

Not long after, the working hours came, and the machines in the workshop started to run, making loud noises.The workers stopped entertaining and chatting one after another, and came to the assembly line to concentrate on their work.

At present, state-owned units have a cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, and a newspaper for a day, but they are mainly concentrated in idle government departments and service units, such as restaurants and shops.

Workers on this kind of assembly line dare not slack off. Once they slack off, production will be delayed at least, and safety problems will arise at worst, and they will eventually kill themselves or their colleagues.

Not long after the machine was started, the workers were so busy that they were sweating all over. Many of them took off their shirts and started working naked. The workshop was filled with steam formed by the evaporation of sweat just like when Xu Jichang first came yesterday.

Xu Jichang listened to the roaring sound of the machine, and then looked at the cloud-shrouded scene, and frowned slightly: This environment is simply an excellent opportunity to steal.

Visibility is low, voices are covered, and men and women cannot be distinguished from five meters away, and it is difficult to distinguish human beings from ten meters away.If someone secretly carries a bag of fertilizer and hides it, it will be really difficult for others to find out.

Xu Jichang took a deep breath, found the workshop's production log again, and turned to the page from yesterday.

The production of the workshop increased a little yesterday, which is relatively high compared to the past. It is estimated that the thief saw him coming, temporarily restrained himself, and died down.

But, it is estimated that thieves will not be able to bear it for a long time. Stealing things is really addictive, otherwise how could the folks have the saying of thief's claws.

All I have to do is wait and find the right time to make a move.

After get off work, Xu Jichang chatted with the director of the workshop, Zhou, and learned that the third workshop arranged night shifts every day, and there were no security guards patrolling the night shifts.

Xu Jichang didn't respond to Director Zhou's words on the surface, but he actually realized the opportunity from it.

……

……

A few days later at night, in the third workshop.

The night shift workers are busy, and everyone is sweating profusely under the incandescent lights.Bags of chemical fertilizers come off the production line and are transported out of the factory by carts pushed by the porters of the conveying team.

The layout of the whole workshop is that the preparation group is the outermost adjacent to the gate, the middle is the packaging group, and the innermost is the conveying group.

It means that after the workers in the transportation group moved the fertilizer to the trolley, they had to push the trolley through the workshop again before they could reach the gate and transport the fertilizer out.

Such a production layout may seem unreasonable, but there are reasons for it.

Fertilizer preparation involves chemical processes that carry the risk of explosion.Placing the preparation group at the door is conducive to ventilation and heat dissipation. On the contrary, if it is placed inside, it may form a long-term accumulated temperature, which will eventually lead to a safety production accident.

Of course, the current layout has also caused a consequence, that is, the porters of the transportation team stay in the innermost part of the workshop for a long time, where the lighting is poor, the lights are dim, and there are large machines covering them, so everyone usually can't see what they are doing.

The porters took advantage of this to form a profit chain of stealing and selling fertilizers privately.

At this moment, several porters were holding their breath and observing everything in the workshop. After confirming that no one had noticed them, they came to the corner of the back wall of the workshop.

I saw one of the fat porters put his hand on a brick in the corner, and pulled the brick out with his hand.

Yes, this brick is alive.

Immediately afterwards, the second block, the third block...

Soon, a hole was dug out from the corner of the wall, which was just the right size to allow a band of chemical fertilizers to pass through.

"Wang Tuozi, hurry up, you guys!"

The fat porter shouted in a low voice, and soon the other porters ran over with a bag of fertilizer, and stuffed the whole bag of fertilizer into the hole.

At this time, the co-dang who was in charge of the response outside pulled it hard, and soon a large bag of chemical fertilizer was transported out.

Next, the second bag, the third bag, and the fourth bag of fertilizer...

When the fifth bag was transported, the fat porter reached out to stop the fellows: "Let's stop here today."

"Is it over?"

The porter, known as Wang Tuozi, was obviously unwilling.

The fat porter nodded: "That security officer named Xu Jichang just took office, we can't do too much."

"Ok."

Wang Tuozi nodded resentfully, with dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Since he came, we haven't opened for several days."

"When will we be able to make a big deal?"

The fat porter curled his lips: "Today's vote is the last one. Let's not do this in the future, so as not to worry about it all day long."

……

Wang Tuozi and the others remained silent, they really couldn't let go of this way of making money.

At this moment, under the small wall of the back door of the chemical fertilizer factory, Xu Jichang was holding a stick in his hand, staring at what happened outside the workshop wall through the street lights.
