Yu Jingting didn't slog through manure, instead, he managed to sneak into the paper factory, taking on the role of a junk collector.
Originally, he was trying to gather information about Chen He and understand his character.
When he saw that the paper factory had arranged for a junk collector, he gave him some money to leave and slipped in himself.
If he didn't act this way, getting in would be impossible. The paper factory had ceased production, and the gatekeeper, fearing workers would steal and sell items, didn't allow anyone in.
Only the leaders could sell things, what business did the workers have to get involved?
As for where the money from the sales went, that was a question no one could ask.
After Yu Jingting sneaked in, using his social bull attribute, he engaged the gatekeeper in conversation. Not only did he thoroughly understand Chen He's situation, he also entered the office and found these operational plans from the waste bin.
