Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

Chapter 306 - 171 Who Stole My Cucumber?_3

It’s just that if this keeps up, once a monopoly is formed, it will eventually go sour. Some companies have already started to inquire about Zhou Yuwen and Liu Shuo, hoping to invite them for meals and chats.

After all, having close to five hundred stable workers in hand is a resource not to be underestimated anywhere these days.

Zhou Yuwen had heard quite a few rumors from Li Qiang.

Seeing that Zhou Yuwen was really unaware, Li Qiang was curious, "Brother Zhou, do you really not know about Xu Huai’s meeting?"

"How could I possibly know about that?" Zhou Yuwen said.

Li Qiang sighed, "Ah, I was hoping to ride on your coattails and have you find me a position."

"How could I find you a position?" Zhou Yuwen chuckled.

Li Qiang said that he also worked as a parcel sorter in a warehouse, but the high-paying and easy jobs as unloaders were all dominated by Xu Huai’s people; us outsiders could only do sorting.

"The salary for sorters is too low, and driving a forklift isn’t that hard. Brother Zhou, why don’t you speak to your friend and let me work as an unloader?"

Zhou Yuwen said, "I remember you have to sign up for the forklift in advance, and there’s also a fifty yuan training fee."

"Yeah, but how could us outsiders know about that? Isn’t this just monopolized by the higher-ups at Xu Huai?" Li Qiang complained incessantly.

Zhou Yuwen said there wasn’t much he could do since he’d been working part-time for a while now, and it’s too late to mention it now.

"How could it be too late? Just ask around, I’m smart and I’d get the hang of driving a forklift right away!" Li Qiang was a bit anxious.

Zhou Yuwen said, "I can only try for you, but I can’t guarantee anything."

"Brother Zhou, as long as you speak up, there will definitely be no problem," Li Qiang said.

After hesitating a bit, Li Qiang shared his little secret with Zhou Yuwen, meaning that Brother Zhou, you absolutely must help, my happiness for the rest of my life depends on you!

Zhou Yuwen said, "Speak properly, how did the happiness of your latter life come into this?"

"Next week, isn’t Linlin bringing her boyfriend to see a movie?" Li Qiang asked.

Zhou Yuwen said, that was indeed the case.

"I used to pursue Linlin, I don’t want to look too shabby, I just want to work extra hard during this time, buy some decent clothes, at least not lose face completely!" Li Qiang said earnestly.

"..."

"Actually, it’s not necessary..."

"Brother Zhou, please, I mainly don’t want to lose too embarrassingly. What do you think Linlin’s boyfriend is like?"

Zhou Yuwen found it hard to refuse him outright, so he said he’d ask around.

"Anyway, I feel that pinning her down on the bed would definitely satisfy my desire to conquer!"

Zhou Yuwen told him not to mess around.

But Liu Shuo said, "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing."

When Liu Shuo scolded Lv Hui, he felt a sense of conquest. He liked the idea of having a woman who was several years older than himself but still meek and afraid of him. So Liu Shuo felt that he had to win over Lv Hui.

But he was only eighteen; how could he possibly handle Lv Hui.

Besides, at first, Lv Hui thought Liu Shuo was some kind of boss and had a bit of a crush on him, but now she knew the real big boss was Zhou Yuwen.

So how could she bother with Liu Shuo, that simpleton.

Really, in this small delivery station, there might not be a man who could catch Lv Hui’s eye.

But working here, she could take a little advantage of her gender to gain some perks.

Especially someone like Zhou Yuwen, a tall and handsome guy.

Getting Zhou Yuwen would be a good deal for Lv Hui.

So, that afternoon, when the courier station was empty,

Jiang Xinyi went to the warehouse to settle some accounts and hadn’t returned.

Zhou Yuwen was alone in the vegetable garden watering the plants.

He counted the cucumbers again.

Dammit.

He didn’t know which thief had stolen two of his cucumbers again.

From the original twenty cucumbers, only fifteen remained, with one extra stolen just yesterday.

He needed to install a camera to see who was stealing.

The weather in November was unpredictably cold and hot, but even by mid-month, the afternoons could be intensely hot.

Lv Hui was alone in the air-conditioned room nibbling on sunflower seeds and playing with her phone.

She spotted Zhou Yuwen busy in the garden outside.

Her eyes darted around, and after a moment’s thought, she pulled down the neckline of her V-neck dress and then walked outside.

The young ones, eighteen or nineteen years old, were the easiest to manipulate.
