Chapter 245 Lu Yong
Chapter 245 Lu Yong
Just as the man was sizing up the situation, the car door suddenly opened, and a long leg encased in denim jeans emerged from inside, followed by a red-haired woman stepping out.
Before he could even marvel at when Liang Zhijie had become involved with such a woman, his pupils had already sharply constricted.
There, on the thigh of the beautiful woman, was a glaringly conspicuous handgun!
The silver of the gun's body was extremely eye-catching.
It was the first time he had ever seen it.
Then, the woman's gaze suddenly shifted over here, and the coldness and caution in her eyes made him quickly lower his head, avoiding her gaze as he heard another man jumping out from the car.
"Hmm—"
"The weather is quite nice today."@@@@
"Liang Zhijie, is this the place you mentioned?"
The voice sounded very young, with an air of nonchalance that seemed so out of place in these times.
After all, anyone who had lived this long was careful and guarded even in their speech.
Curious, the man couldn't help but raise his head.
He saw a young man, about one meter eighty in height, looking around with great interest at the surroundings and the passersby, appearing much like a rich family's young master out for a tour.
Liang Zhijie, standing in front of him, was bowing and scraping like a servant from ancient times, his face etched with a fawning smile.
"My apologies, Director Zhang."
"It seems we haven't come at the right time."
"Didn't you hear what Brother Lu said just now? The factory has just taken a group of people away, and it looks like they took at least a dozen over there."
Zhang Ye, however, shifted his gaze, staring at Liang Zhijie's fearful face and asked, "Lu head?"
"Lu... Brother Lu, come over here quick!"
Liang Zhijie immediately waved over to the man standing a few steps away, who was watching this side, "Let me introduce you, this is Director Zhang from down south!"
The man, hearing himself being called, quickly replaced his curiosity with a smile, trotted forward a few steps and bent over, saying,
"Hehe, Old Liang, how many times have I told you not to call me brother!"
"Just call me by my name!"
As he said this, he continued to bend and laugh, "Director Zhang, nice to meet you, I'm Lu Yong. May I ask what brings you here to..."
Lu Yong actually already had a guess but still deliberately probed.
But Zhang Ye had no intention of answering him, instead, the woman beside him subtly stepped forward, using her body to forcefully push the approaching Lu Yong back several steps.
Simultaneously, Liang Zhijie hurriedly answered on behalf of Zhang Ye, "Recruiting workers, are there any more people coming here today?"
Lu Yong, seeing the woman's tense body, knew she was trained.
He felt an increased sense of wariness towards Zhang Ye.
Nowadays, anyone who had bodyguards when going out was not a simple character, even someone like Li Yuanhao always had a few thugs loyally guarding him.
"I also know a few people there, might be able to help."
Zhang Ye listened and his lips curled up slightly, a quiet chuckle in his heart.
This guy was quick-witted.
On the surface, he seemed to be just eager to help.
But in fact, he was trying to steal business from Liang Zhijie.
These two clearly knew each other, yet they were stitching up this act.
They were decisively ruthless.
Liang Zhijie wasn't a fool, how could he not understand his intent?
He was fully counting on this endeavor to build ties with Zhang Ye and the Peng family brothers, and now someone was trying to cut him off mid-way?
His expression instantly became excited.
"Old Liang, what kind of way is this to handle things?"
He then hurriedly looked towards Zhang Ye, saying sincerely,
"Director Zhang!"
"I'm familiar with that area!"
"Let me take you over there, okay?"
Zhang Ye smiled, glanced at Lu Yong who was still bowing his head, and had already made a decision in his mind; he turned and got into the car.
"Liang Zhijie, come on up and lead the way."
"Okay!"
A nervous Liang Zhijie, upon hearing these words, immediately responded excitedly and jogged to the other side of the car.
Gao Feng didn't say much more, decisively opened the door, got into the car, and prepared to leave.
Lu Yong, still maintaining his bowed head, internally sighed in disappointment, thinking Liang that guy had just hit the jackpot.
But as he was about to look up, suddenly he heard a voice from the car,
"Wait for me at the Five-Note Misc. Grain Store before the market."
"Just give them my name."
Lu Yong's heart surged with surprise, and when he looked up, the two cars had already slowly pulled out of the hiring site, one after the other.
They soon disappeared around the right-hand corner.
Five-Note Misc. Grain Store?
That was the name from the past.
Now it's said to have been converted by government officials into a hostel, specifically for renting to outsiders.
It turned out his guess was not wrong.
