Chapter 276

"That's why he can get so many supplies."

As Ma Hua spoke of the gossip, Shazhu's eyes were filled with jealousy.

Shazhu cursed viciously: "Bullshit! Cao Weiguo is using public money to buy people's hearts. I'll make him stink to high heaven sooner or later."

Hearing Shazhu's words, Ma Hua immediately closed his mouth and said nothing.

Although Shazhu was his master, Cao Weiguo was his leader.

He was afraid of Shazhu, but even more afraid of Cao Weiguo.

Because Cao Weiguo could kick away his iron rice bowl.

Shazhu felt unhappy, but his work didn't stop.

At lunchtime, he deliberately left a little late.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he put a few pieces of pork belly into his lunchbox.

He didn't want to risk taking the meat, but Qin Huairu would wipe away tears whenever she saw him, which made his heart ache unbearably.

Moreover, he had already boasted, and it would be embarrassing if he couldn't get things done.

He could be embarrassed in front of everyone, but he absolutely didn't want to be embarrassed in front of Qin Huairu.

Besides, there was so much pork; no one would notice if he took a few pieces back.

And taking it back to help those in need was more meaningful than letting corrupt guys gorge themselves.

After packing the pork, Shazhu went to the canteen to eat.

Eating the mass-produced food made by Chu Jinshui, Silly Zhu felt unhappy again.

Because Cao Weiguo often went out for procurement, he was not in the kitchen a lot of the time.

Daily work was handed over to Li Dong, Ma Liang, Chu Jinshui, and two apprentices respectively.

Li Dong and Ma Liang managed the canteen and kitchen respectively, while Liu Limin and Li Fei were responsible for kitchen assistance and the warehouse.

Chu Jinshui became the head chef, leading several other cooks to be responsible for making the mass-produced food.

Because Chu Jinshui's culinary skills were good and the workers were used to eating his food, even if Cao Weiguo wasn't there, Silly Pillar still had no chance to take charge of the cooking.

Even if Cao Weiguo wasn't in the factory, the canteen was still firmly grasped in his hands.

Shazhu believed that Cao Weiguo was deliberately setting him up, so he hated Cao Weiguo to the bone.

In the canteen's private room, Deputy Factory Director Li accompanied several leaders:

"Leaders, our factory just happened to get some wild boar, pheasant, and wild duck, as well as a roe deer."

"These are all wild game from the mountains."

Hearing this, the expressions of these leaders couldn't help but show some anticipation.

A leader wearing glasses smiled and said: "Then I'm in for a treat today."

The dishes carefully cooked by Cao Weiguo were served on the table, each one with perfect color, aroma, and taste.

The leaders praised them endlessly, making Deputy Factory Director Li very happy.

Once the leaders were satisfied, the work would be easy to do.

After sending off the satisfied leaders, Deputy Factory Director Li went to Cao Weiguo's office and praised him profusely.

At this time, Fatty sneaked into the office.

Deputy Factory Director Li sat on the sofa and frowned slightly, while Cao Weiguo asked expressionlessly:

"Fatty, is there something?"

Fatty said nervously: "Factory Director Li, Section Chief Cao, I'm reporting He Yuzhu for stealing things."

Deputy Factory Director Li glared at Fatty: "Is what you're saying true?"

Fatty said hurriedly: "I saw with my own eyes that he put wild boar meat into his lunchbox."

Deputy Factory Director Li said with an unkind expression: "Very good, you reported this matter very promptly. You go back to work first, don't alert Shazhu, I will send someone to investigate."

Hearing Deputy Factory Director Li say "good," Fatty was overjoyed.

He returned to the workshop happily, sneering secretly at the unsuspecting Shazhu.

Although he had stabbed his master in the back, he didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.

Instead, he looked forward to using this opportunity to be highly valued by the leaders.

Deputy Factory Director Li rubbed his hands excitedly and took Cao Weiguo to the Security Section.

Factory Director Yang was Shazhu's backer, and it was he who transferred Shazhu back to the canteen.

If Shazhu were caught stealing collective property, Factory Director Yang would inevitably be held accountable.

He didn't expect to bring down Factory Director Yang with this, but splashing some dirty water on him wouldn't be bad either.

Deputy Factory Director Li was a master of struggle and would never miss any opportunity to strike at his opponents.

The time for work to end arrived, and the guard at the Security Section waited for Shazhu calmly.

When Shazhu was whistling and walking to the main gate carrying his old satchel,

the guard stopped Shazhu with a cold face: "Master He, we need to check your bag."

Shazhu said guiltily: "There's only an empty lunchbox in my bag, what's there to check?"

The guard sneered: "Just an empty lunchbox? Open it and let me take a look, it won't take much time."

"You're looking for trouble, aren't you!"

"You don't check so many other people, why check me?"

"Hurry up and move aside, I'm going home to eat."

The leaders above had already given the task, so the guard naturally wouldn't let Shazhu go:

"This is our job, please cooperate, Master He."

"Cooperate my ass! Don't delay me from going home after work!"

Shazhu pushed the guard away guiltily, and other guards immediately surrounded him upon seeing this.

"Shazhu, this is not a place for you to run wild!"

"Leaving in such a hurry, I think you have something to hide."

The workers leaving work were also in no hurry to go home and all surrounded the gate to watch the excitement.

Two guards grabbed Shazhu's arms, and the pushed guard took the lunchbox out of the satchel.

Once the lunchbox was in hand, the guard knew what was going on.

Opening the lunchbox in public immediately caused a gasp.

"Shazhu! Is this the empty lunchbox you were talking about?"

"Everyone take a look! What's inside here?"

"It's meat!"

"This is collective property! It's the blood and sweat of the people!"

The guard showed the lunchbox filled with wild boar meat to the workers present.

This caused all the workers to be filled with righteous indignation, pointing at Shazhu and cursing loudly:

"Shazhu is too bad!"

"He's simply a parasite of the country!"

"He used to steal food, now he's stealing meat directly!"

"He's drinking the blood of us workers!"

The workers cursed at Shazhu angrily, and the guards of the Security Section took Shazhu away directly.

Because Shazhu had Factory Director Yang as his backer, he didn't take anyone seriously.

When he was the head chef, he was very stingy with the portions.

This made the workers full of resentment, and now Shazhu had been caught red-handed.

The workers present all wished they could go up and kick Shazhu a few times.

The workers who had been short-changed by Shazhu included those in the Security Section.

Now that Shazhu had fallen into their hands, they naturally wouldn't be polite.

They deliberately walked and stopped while holding Shazhu, showing the stolen goods to the workers.

They stirred up the workers' anger and ruined Shazhu's reputation.

Just as Deputy Factory Director Li and Cao Weiguo arrived, Factory Director Yang, who had been out for a meeting, happened to return to get some documents.

Learning that Shazhu had stolen wild boar meat, he was so angry on the spot that his face turned blue.

Shazhu's punishment had been reduced by him, and it was he who had transferred Shazhu back to the canteen.
