Chap 19
Blue Crystal Beads

Blue crystal ore is not only expensive, it is also rare, because it originated from a remote, abandoned planet. Explorers went to dig for the treasure, and in the end only a piece of blue crystal ore was brought back. He handed it over to the government. After identification, the crystal ore was of no use except for viewing. The explorer asked someone to make it into beads of the same size, with a total of less than a thousand beads, and then sold them at a high price. .

Miss Qi has 148 in total, and now, one is missing.

Cheng Jin and Andy looked around in a panic. They rummaged through the foggy place they had just encountered. They wanted to lie down on the road and searched inch by inch, but they still couldn’t find the shadow of the bead.

“What to do?” Andy was so anxious that the sweat on his forehead came out. “There is one missing it is such an important crystal bead, how can we compensate?”

Cheng Jin was also anxious, his face turned pale, he said, “Let’s look for it again, maybe it’s scattered on the side of the road.” He said that he was about to go out, Andy grabbed his arm and said:” Impossible! We just searched so many times and haven’t seen it, unless you lost it yourself, and deliberately brought it over to say you didn’t lose it.”

Cheng Jin was taken aback, and quickly explained: “No, I was there before I came here, I have counted it again, I have been well protected along the way, and it is impossible to be lost in the middle.” He suddenly thought of a possibility, “could it be Lian Wu? He just touched this skirt.”

Compared to the little young master who is not so bright in his mind, Andy has already thought of this level. He said: “Maybe it is him, then you go to him and ask?”

Cheng Jin was taken aback for a while, and after a while, he whispered softly: “If it is really him, he did it deliberately. Even if I ask, how can he give it back?”

“Go and apologize, go and beg him, he might be willing to pay it back! Besides, if you didn’t protect the skirt yourself, it wouldn’t give him a chance.” Andy gritted his teeth, “Why don’t you take it? When I come back, with Miss Qi’s arrogant temperament, she will definitely lose her temper. When the time comes, we will go to my boss, and neither of us will have a good time!”

Cheng Jin said in a daze: “Lian Wu will definitely not return it me, Miss Qi… go and explain to her, won’t he forgive me?”

“Forgive me?” Andy sneered, “Master Cheng, your temper before, is the same as Miss Qi’s temper, according to your previous personality, someone lost your things, can you forgive me?” He was probably angry enough. Extremely, there was a strong yin and yang in his tone, “I heard that your helper used to be insulted by you as long as he made a little mistake.”

“I…” Cheng Jin wanted to explain that although he used to lose his temper, he didn’t insult others. When the words came to his lips, he couldn’t say anything.

Andy sneered: “What? If you don’t want to apologize and beg for mercy, what do you do? Is it possible that you can make another bead out of thin air? Although there are so many beads in our store, we can’t find such a rare one.”

Cheng Jin squeezed his fingers, and suddenly whispered: “I used to…have a box.” He likes blue, and he likes beautiful and shiny things. If he sees the introduction in the news, he will immediately ask for it. His brother loved him, and he actually ran all the way to another planet. When he came back, he brought him a box of blue crystal beads, with a total of three hundred. But Cheng Jin at that meeting was not satisfied yet, pouting his mouth in dissatisfaction and said: “Why didn’t you buy them all?”

According to the news, there are a total of 891 crystal beads, one of which was collected by the explorer himself, and the total number put out for auction is 890.

Faced with his complaint, the elder smiled softly, rubbed his head, and said: “Sorry, I am late, I only bought these. I will meet again later, and I will bring them back to you, OK? ?”

The box of beads was so much for Cheng Jin. Even when it was in despair, it was the last thing to sell, because his father had to have a large sum of money for the second operation.

Andy didn’t understand, “What?”

Cheng Jin whispered: “I used to have a box of these beads.”

Andy’s eyes lit up, “Where are they now? You sold it? Can you still find the buyer?”

“I have to ask…” Cheng Jin is not really sure. “I, I will ask first, if I can’t find it, I will apologize to Lian Wu, hoping that he can return the beads to me, if he doesn’t admit it. , I will go and apologize to Miss Qi…”

Andy saw that he took the responsibility on his body, he was relieved, and was a little bit ashamed, but he quickly suppressed that feeling, and said: “Then you go, it’s better to You can buy one exactly the same.” Then he said: “If you don’t have enough money, you can ask me to advance your wages.”

“good.”

After going out the back door, Cheng Jin was still a little unwilling to search the place where he had previously argued. The roads here are remote, fewer people will come over, and there are no debris on the road, even if the beads are small, they cannot be found here. Although Cheng Jin already knew this was the result, he was still a little disappointed in his heart. He pursed his lips, walked quickly back into the car, opened the address book, found his brother’s contact number and dialed it.

No one answered.

Cheng Jin did not try a second time, but started the car and drove to the factory.

Empire Planet also has many factories, but they basically have zero pollution, such as food factories. All industries that are a bit polluting have moved to the nearest planet. Those who can work in the factory are considered to be the “lower layers” of the empire planet, those who are cruising in the middle of the deportation line. Their salary is not high. In order to maintain the balance line in the account, they will generally take the initiative to request to extend their working hours, and they will also try to save money as much as possible.

In fact, after knowing that something happened at home, Cheng Jin’s first thought was to come here to work. He has no academic qualifications and no skills. He is not required for a high-paying job, and he knows that his brother is also here, so he wants to have a company. However, his title of “Mrs. Admiral” hindered him and prevented him from working here, so he was forced to work illegally in the end.

But Cheng Xu’s situation is different. His education is actually very high. With his talents, even if he joins a large company as a senior executive, there is nothing he can do. But because he is a person deprived of his rights, he is invisible Deporter”, so there are many restrictions on the work he can do, and he can only enter here in the end.

When Cheng Jin first visited his elder brother, when he saw that he was no longer wearing expensive clothes, but ordinary and a little ugly uniforms, he cried so distressed and choked with tears. Cheng Xu coaxed it for a long time and didn’t coax it well, and finally cried until hiccups. After crying for two hours, it finally calmed down. He would want his brother to leave, he said: “With your ability, you can definitely do a new career on other planets, and you don’t need to be wronged here.”

The elder brother smiled lightly when he heard the words, touched his hair, and asked: “What about father? He must live here for treatment now.”

Cheng Jin clenched his fists and said loudly, “I, I will take care of my father!”

Cheng Xu didn’t expose his innocence, but just said: “You and Dad are here, what’s the point of leaving alone?”

Cheng Jin wanted to cry again, “But you have worked too hard here. You have been working for so long, and you just manipulate the machinery. It’s no different if you change one person…”

“I didn’t find it hard.” My brother smiled very softly. “Working hours are also just right. I used to find time to exercise. Now I work for exercise. Xiao Jin, you come and touch my arm. Are the muscles strong?”

Seeing his brother’s extended arm, Cheng Jin suddenly noticed his hand. My elder brother used to be a pampering person. Although he is more than 30 years old, he is well maintained, his palms are wide but not rough, but now, the upper part is already callused and even cracked…

Cheng Jin tried hard to persuade his brother to leave. Only later did he realize how naive he was. His father’s surgery fee was a huge figure, and he couldn’t afford it at all, not to mention the usual medical expenses. He knew that his brother was reliable, and all the things he took out later were sold by his brother, and he did not lose any more.

The box of blue crystal beads was sold by my brother.

Cheng Jin drove to the entrance of the factory. He dialed his brother’s communicator again, but still did not get a response, so he could only go to the guard. When he said the name of the person he wanted to find, the doorman said: “Cheng Xu? He has resigned.”

“Resigned?” Cheng Jin was stunned. He didn’t expect this result at all. “Why did he leave?”

The guard said: “Maybe finally I can’t go on. I plan to live on another planet. In fact, it’s right not to stay here. I’m an inferior person here. If I go to another planet, I will become a middle class. My old man wants It’s not that I’m getting older, and I’ll have the government pension after another year of work. I don’t want to stay here anymore…”

Cheng Jin didn’t listen to the rumors behind him, turned around and walked out, the only thought that came to mind was “impossible.” The elder brother would never leave this planet without saying a word. He must have found another job, so he went to work elsewhere.

Will it be another factory?

There are not many factories here. Cheng Jin finished the question all at once. He couldn’t find the whereabouts of his elder brother. The addresses of other factories were remote, and he couldn’t find them at all for a while. When Cheng Jin was in a panic, the communicator on his wrist rang. When Cheng Jin saw the name of the caller’s note, his eyes lit up and he quickly connected. The communicator was connected to the light screen, and Cheng Jin saw his brother’s familiar face and almost cried with excitement, “Brother, where have you been? Why can’t I find you?”

Cheng Xu’s background can only be seen as a wall. His facial features are the same as before, but a bit less sharp and a bit more elegant. He said: “I changed another job and I was at work just now. The communicator needs to be turned off. Baby, what’s the matter?”

Cheng Jin heaved a sigh of relief and quickly asked: “Brother, do you remember the blue crystal beads I asked you to sell, who did you sell to?”
