I was a daigou in the 60s

The old man suddenly shouted loudly, and at the same time took out a hammer from behind him, his face full of anger.

Xiao Dongqing's smile froze instantly, and he muttered to himself.

I just came to work, how come my life is threatened?

"Uncle, please calm down and put down the hammer..." Xiao Dongqing hurriedly comforted him.

However, the old man ignored it.

He brandished the hammer and said angrily, "Look at this hammer, the handle is loose."

"Even the tip of the claw hammer broke off!"

"How can I explain this to the commune? The members are waiting for me to go back and repair their farm tools!"

"Isn't this just a deliberate attempt to make things difficult for you? I need to talk to your leader and clarify things."

"If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today, I will file a complaint with the city."

"If it doesn't work, then the province will see how your supply and marketing cooperatives serve the people!"

Xiao Dongqing breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was just a problem with product quality.

Seeing that the old man was very emotional, Xiao Dongqing walked out from behind the counter.

Place your hands lightly on your abdomen.

"Uncle, don't worry, we will take care of the hammer problem."

"As long as the goods sold by our supply and marketing cooperative have quality problems."

"We will definitely give you a satisfactory solution. Don't be angry. Being angry is not good for your health."

Xiao Dongqing had already seen that this old man was not a real farmer.

I thought to myself that he had almost done his acting.

Is there no one left at the agricultural machinery station?

How could a person wearing a neat Zhongshan suit and a Hero brand pen on his chest be allowed to do so?

An old man wearing leather shoes would do this kind of physical work?

This Hero brand fountain pen is a new model this year, and it has been favored by many literature lovers since it was launched on the market.

This old gentleman's pen is worth a lot of money.

It’s equivalent to two months’ salary for an ordinary person, and he’s a technician at an agricultural machinery station?

Haha, it's unbelievable.

However, the old man was stunned when he saw Xiao Dongqing's standing posture.

Xiao Dongqing folded his hands lightly and bent down slightly to speak.

The posture is both respectful and appropriate. Even if the old man comes to find fault, it is difficult to get angry when seeing such an attitude.

Xiao Dongqing himself did not realize that his action was actually instinctive.

This is his standard standing posture in the service industry.

“Xiao Xiao, if you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense!”

Inside the counter, Zhou Lifen spoke bluntly to Xiao Dongqing.

She glanced at the old man sideways, her chin held high.

"Old man, are you here to cause trouble on purpose?"

"You can tell at a glance that this hammer wasn't sold by our supply and marketing cooperative."

"It's not that easy to get away with it, you're still a little naive!"

Old man: "You, you, you, what do you mean!"

Xiao Dongqing spoke to ease the atmosphere: "...Sister Zhou, without investigation, you have no right to speak. Don't be so absolute."

"It would be more appropriate for us to check on this old comrade first. What do you think?"

Director Dong mentioned before that a leader would come for an unannounced visit.

Xiao Dongqing guessed that the old man in front of him was probably him.

"What can I say? He dares to pick a fight with our supply and marketing cooperative. Doesn't he know this is a state-owned unit?"

"It's up to him whether to buy it or not! Even if I sell him a faulty hammer, so what—"

Her tone became more and more arrogant, completely disregarding the occasion.

Xiao Dongqing wished he could shut Zhou Lifen up.

He quickly winked at Sister Wang.

Sister Wang was sorting the goods and didn't react for a moment.

But Sister Wang was not stupid. When she saw Xiao Dongqing's eyes, she immediately understood what was going on.

"Shut up!"

Sister Wang's face darkened and she stopped Zhou Lifen who was about to speak.

She hurriedly walked out from behind the counter, bowed to the old comrade, and apologized repeatedly.

"Old comrade, I'm so sorry, the hammer you asked for..."

Before he finished speaking, the door of the supply and marketing cooperative was pushed open and several people in Zhongshan suits walked in.

Director Dong followed at the end, his face ashen.

Xiao Dongqing guessed correctly that this old comrade was the undercover cadre sent by his superiors.

They made the trip after receiving a report that a salesperson was hoarding high-quality goods.

Selling inferior products to customers at high prices attracted the attention of senior management, who decided to conduct a surprise inspection.

Director Dong was called out by them before just to cooperate with this operation.

After the old comrade came in, he pretended to be calm, but he was actually observing the employees' reactions.

Watching Director Dong and several leaders enter the office.

Zhou Lifen's face turned pale, she held the glass cabinet with both hands, and kept muttering to herself.

"It's over, it's really over this time!"

"I'm sure my salary will be docked this time."

"Oh, why is my mouth so disappointing?"

"Why did these leaders come here so suddenly? Without any prior notice!"

She even began to blame Director Dong.

Accountant Ren couldn't stand it anymore and said while covering her chest.

"Could you please stop talking! You've messed up everything today."

"Xiao Dongqing is still trying to calm that old comrade down, why are you joining in the fun?"

"Your mouth is always the source of trouble!"

Is Zhou Lifen the only one who was punished this time?

If the inspection fails, the entire supply and marketing cooperative will be implicated.

He was an accountant who did the books and didn't even say a few words.

But he was implicated because of the young and foolish Zhou Lifen. What bad luck!

Zhou Lifen was very dissatisfied when she was scolded by Accountant Ren.

He wanted to retort, but when he saw the dissatisfied looks from the people around him, he swallowed his words back.

Other colleagues also did not have a good attitude towards Zhou Lifen.

Sister Wang rubbed her temples, looking a little irritated.

"Alright, everyone, stop talking. The leader is still in there. Let's wait until the results come out before we discuss this."

She turned to Xiao Dongqing and her tone softened a lot.

"Xiao Xiao did a great job today. Not only did he appease the customer, he also promised to help find out the whole story."

"This is exactly the kind of performance we expect from good employees, and I believe our leaders will recognize it."

After hearing this, Accountant Ren quickly agreed.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Xiao's performance today really saved us a lot of face."

"I just hope their salary won't be deducted too much this time. I still need this little money to save for my child's wedding!"

After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Lifen with dissatisfaction, secretly cursing her in his heart as a nosy person!

Xiao Dongqing smiled slightly: "Actually, I didn't do anything. I just followed the methods that Sister Wang taught me."

If Zhou Lifen hadn't been so outspoken, this undercover investigation would have ended long ago.

It wouldn't mean that everyone is still trapped in the office.

After finishing the morning work, Xiao Dongqing thought that he was not a formal employee.

He said hello to Sister Wang and prepared to leave.

"Sister Wang, I'm leaving first. See you this afternoon."

Sister Wang nodded: "Go ahead."

When others learned that Xiao Dongqing could leave work early, they felt very unfair.

Xue Zhen complained, holding her empty stomach.

"Why can he leave, but we have to wait here?"
