Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry
Chapter 471: Shopkeeper 2's Grievances
This action immediately earned him the loyalty of countless people in the Military Control Commission. This is the best way to control subordinates.
At this time, the waiter Xu Zhongyi was suffering from very unfair treatment, and it could even be said that he was being bullied.
"Waiter, you need to get to work quickly. We still have fifty bags of rice. We need to finish them this morning. We also need to go to another warehouse to move cotton cloth in the afternoon."
A man who was about the same age as the waiter spoke very loudly, as if he wanted to be heard by someone. After a long while, he walked up to the person who was moving things and complained quietly:
"I say, Lao Xu, why did you have to offend Master Qi when you could have offended anyone else? Don't you know that he has a backer? You are suffering now."
"If it weren't for the fact that you and I were from the same special training class, I would have hidden as far away as possible to avoid being implicated by you."
"Come, have a drink of water and take a rest. The supervisor has left. I will help you move it later. Otherwise, your small body will collapse from exhaustion."
The waiter took the cup of water and gulped it down. He was exhausted from carrying all those supplies just now.
"Old Tang, I'm really unlucky to have run into such a mess. What do you think your warehouse is thinking? You can just hire a porter for this kind of thing. Why do you have to let a lieutenant like me do it? It's inefficient and a waste of money. Why bother?"
The person who was speaking was named Tang Yichen. Actually, he was from the same hometown as the waiter and they both graduated from the same special training class, so they had a very good relationship.
However, Tang Yichen is now the lieutenant deputy chief of the warehouse in the General Affairs Department of the Military Control Commission. After graduating from the special training class, he has been promoted to a higher rank, so he can be considered to be doing well.
He just rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Old Xu, stop playing dumb with me. You know what's going on better than anyone else."
"I think you deserve it. Don't you know that Mr. Qi cares most about his cousin Miss Gu? You still dare to provoke her. I think it's good that Mr. Qi didn't let you go to the front line and squat in the trenches."
The waiter sighed and complained indignantly, "I didn't provoke her. I just said a few more words to Miss Gu. Is that wrong?"
"Besides, when we were in the special training class, Miss Gu and I had a good relationship. What's wrong with talking to each other a few more times? As for retaliation afterwards?"
"This Mr. Qi is so petty. He uses his connections to embarrass a small person like me just because of such a small matter. Is this fair?"
Tang Yichen was annoyed to death by the waiter who sat there and chattered on and on about his misfortunes like a wronged young wife.
So he stood up, picked up the bag of grain on the ground and walked towards the warehouse. Compared to staying here and letting his ears suffer, he would rather do some physical work to quiet down.
After the waiter took a break, he stood up and started moving the supplies. It was originally a one-person job, but now it was done by two people, so the speed must be faster.
After they finished, the two sat together and chatted again. The people in charge of the logistics warehouse were not busy to begin with, and they were both graduates of formal schools, and their ranks of second lieutenant and first lieutenant were not low, so they had plenty of free time.
Tang Yichen took out a bottle of white wine, a large bag of peanuts and two cups from somewhere, and the two of them started drinking.
He is in charge of the warehouses in this area, so he does have some small powers. Except when his superiors come to inspect, he is the boss here at other times.
"I say, Old Tang, I knew you still had some talent. This deputy section chief is still the best. Even though he is only one level higher than me, the treatment is totally incomparable. Come on, let's go for one."
After two or three drinks, the two of them got a little tipsy and started bragging:
"I say, Lao Xu, you said that we two brothers are at least graduates of a formal special training class, and we can be considered the elite of the Military Control Commission. But you are even more exaggerated. You have attended several classes, and all of the knowledge you learned is advanced knowledge such as grappling, intelligence gathering, and tactical analysis. But now you have to deal with these trivial matters every day, and you can't use them at all. Isn't it infuriating?"
The waiter had drunk a bit too much at this time, and he was even more depressed. Now that he heard these words, his mood became even worse:
"Old Tang, you're fine. Although you're not successful, at least you have enough food and clothing, and you can even have a drink occasionally. Your life is pretty comfortable."
"But look at me. I have been standing still for several years. Now I am being targeted by Master Qi and have to do dirty and tiring work every day. Who can be as miserable as me?"
When Tang Yichen heard this, he thought about it carefully and felt much better.
Sometimes what people fear most is comparison. As long as they see that the people around them are worse off than themselves, their own sad things will not be so sad anymore.
Thinking of this, he took another big sip and asked tentatively:
"Lao Xu, I remember you told me before that you knew the sixth brother of the Military Control Commission. Is this true?"
Hearing this, the waiter sobered up immediately. He leaned close to Tang Yichen's ear and whispered:
"Really? I've dealt with Brother Six of the Military Control Commission. Once, when he was on a mission, I delivered him some scarce supplies. Brother Six praised me for helping them a lot and said that I had contributed to the operation. He also said that he would treat me to a meal someday. Unfortunately, I waited for a long time but there was no news of a meal."
When Tang Yichen heard this, he was immediately stunned. So that's what was going on. He thought they were such close friends.
At this moment, he looked at the honest guy in front of him with great interest, wondering whether this person was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
"Lao Xu, do you think it's possible that Sixth Brother was just being polite to you? Maybe he forgot about it that day."
After hearing this, the waiter shook his head like a rattle, and kept repeating, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. The Sixth Brother of the Military Control Commission is the most trustworthy and will not give me a perfunctory answer. It's just that Sixth Brother may be dealing with important matters right now. There will definitely be a chance in the future."
Tang Yichen also knew that he had just said something hurtful, so he quickly picked up his glass and said:
"Lao Xu, yes, yes, the Sixth Brother of the Military Control Commission is the most loyal. He will definitely do what he promised. When you become successful in the future, don't forget me, your brother."
"sure."
After the pleasantries, the two decided to take a break. They had to continue working in the afternoon, and they couldn't let anyone catch them, otherwise both of them would be in trouble.
By the afternoon, the waiter was still sweating profusely as he moved the cloth, when Section Chief Song, who was in charge of personnel transfers at the Military Control Commission, came over.
"Is Xu Zhongyi here?"
"Chief Song, why are you here?"
Tang Yichen hurried forward to greet him. Although he was also a deputy section chief, he was just a marginal figure. Section Chief Song was a powerful figure.
The most important thing is that standing behind him is the Sixth Brother of the Military Control Commission, a legendary figure.
