Break out of the courtyard

Chapter 411 Things are different now

July 6, 17pm.

Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Tong.

"Report, according to the thermal imaging camera, the island-crossing bandits have begun to take turns entering the basement again!"

"Call the owner of this laboratory building and confirm again whether there is any food and water in the basement!"

"Sir. The owner has confirmed again and again that he did not store food and water in the basement of this laboratory building. The Housing Department, Water Supplies Department, and Fire Department have also confirmed again and again that there are no water pipes connected to the building. In addition, the owner and his family have gone to the mainland this morning."

"Then tell me, how did those bandits survive for five days without food or water?"

……

Basement of office building No. 5.

"The motherland will never forget! The words are written just as neatly as before." An old man in his 50s took a piece of paper and looked at it for a while, then nodded and said, "This lyric is much more positive than those lyrics about life getting narrower and narrower!"

Opposite the old man stood a middle-aged man who was standing straight and did not respond to the old man's words at all.

"The guy gave you a check from Huifeng Bank, but gave the 11th School a check from Bank of China. Why do you think he did that?" The old man said as he lit a cigarette.

The middle-aged man said in a calm tone: "Report, I don't know!"

"Ahem..." The old man was choked by the smoke and coughed a few times before he said hoarsely, "That kid is playing tricks on me. You are playing tricks on me, you want to piss me off to death, don't you?"

"Report, I really didn't know!" The middle-aged man wanted to step forward to pat the old man on the back, but the other party raised his hand to block him. The middle-aged man hurriedly explained: "I just found out today that Huifeng Bank checks cannot be exchanged in our Bank of China."

"You knew it couldn't be cashed, but you still asked someone to cash it!" The old man held a cigarette in his right hand, pointed at the middle-aged man, and said angrily: "A check from an overseas bank revealed your bottom line. What were you thinking at the time?"

……

The next morning, after Zhang Heping went out to buy breakfast, he called Director Sha in Shenzhen. After learning that the police and criminals in the Kowloon Tong laboratory building were still in a stalemate, he did not rush back to Hong Kong Island.

As soon as he hung up the phone, he saw his eldest brother-in-law Chang Sheng walk into the yard, greet everyone with a smile, and then go out to work.

Zhang Pandi watched her elder brother-in-law Changsheng leave. If he had come to say hello so shamelessly for other reasons, she might have laughed at his power.

However, Chang Sheng wanted his children to transfer to a better school, so he tried to please his younger brother Zhang Heping in such a strange way...

Just when Zhang Pandi was dithering and getting ready to go to work, the pretty female soldier with short hair and big eyes from yesterday came again.

Zhang Pandi subconsciously glanced at Tang Xin and Chen Shuting who were sitting silently at the dinner table. When she thought to herself that her brother shouldn't be so fickle, she heard Zhang Heping talking about transferring schools.

"It's the group of children from yesterday. Can you please ask the primary school of Yuying School and the junior high school of No. 11 School if they are willing to accept them?"

"Director Zhang, are you saying that your six children and eight nephews and cousins ​​will all transfer to other schools?" Li Su, a female service soldier, was a little surprised. The task assigned by her superiors was to do her best to guide Zhang Heping to keep his children to study in the country.

She didn't expect that the task was already half completed before she even started to exert her strength!

"Yes! The older one will go to No. 11 School, and the younger one will go to Yuying School." Zhang Heping said, and took out a shopping list prepared last night and handed it to the servicewoman Li Su, "I'd like to trouble you to buy some home appliances and daily necessities for us. Tell me when you run out of the money from yesterday."

"I cashed a check for HK$100 million yesterday for HK$19. I spent HK$6 on the car, so I still have..."

"Just keep a notebook and show it to my wife at the end of the month." Zhang Heping waved his hand to interrupt Li Su's account reporting. "Go and do your work! Call before you come next time. There's no need to come when there's nothing to bother you with."

Zhang Heping had just sent Li Su away when Director Li from the Nanluoguxiang Sub-district Office came.

His mother Ma Xiuzhen had worked under him for two months, and at this moment she was talking to the other party at the gate of the courtyard. Seeing that this person kept looking towards the courtyard, Zhang Heping guessed that this person was looking for him.

However, Zhang Heping no longer had any connection with the Nanluoguxiang Sub-district Office, and he was not familiar with Director Li, so he didn't know why the other party came here.

Not long after, her mother Ma Xiuzhen came in with a troubled look on her face, "Heping, Director Li wants to ask you for help."

Zhang Heping thought that the other party was here to ask for money and sponsorship, but after he heard the other party's intention, he realized that he was thinking too much. People these days have not evolved to that level yet.

"Director Li, this kind of Dacron shirt is unlikely to be sold at the Canton Fair. If you don't believe it, you can ask Director Qi in Houhai, or ask those garment factories." Zhang Heping said it tactfully.

However, Director Li, who took office only in February this year, seems to be very eager to earn foreign exchange.

He was holding the white shirt and said to Zhang Heping who was standing at the gate of the courtyard:

"Comrade Zhang, you were the deputy director of our Nanluoguxiang Street Office before, so you should know how many unemployed people there are on the street. If this batch of Dacron shirts cannot be sold, the street garment factory will not be able to pay wages, and it will..."

"That's your business!" Zhang Heping raised his hand to interrupt the other party, not wanting to listen to the other party's nonsense.

This man looks to be in his 40s. He was promoted to the director of a sub-district office at the deputy director level. Zhang Heping doesn't believe that he has no knowledge of the ways of the world.

It would be fine if he came to ask someone to do something for him, but he even wanted to morally blackmail Zhang Heping... Have you discussed this with Yi Zhonghai?

"First, you should figure out what my current position and level are before you say what you just said to me!" Zhang Heping turned and went back to the yard, leaving his embarrassed mother Ma Xiuzhen outside the door.

Director Li, who is in his 40s, knows nothing!

Although Zhang Heping didn't know Director Li's background, he was not inferior to him.

Not to mention that he is already a secret personnel of the military system, so how can the director of the street office in the administrative system not find him?

Even if we find out, what can we do?

Director Li's face darkened. He looked at his former subordinate Ma Xiuzhen and sneered, "Comrade Ma, your son is so powerful! What kind of high-ranking official is he in the south, and what important department is he in charge of?"

Director Li thinks that he is one level higher than the officials in Beijing. Even if Zhang Heping is promoted to a regular official, he is just a minor official from another place.

Once he finds out Zhang Heping's whereabouts, he will call his superior and insinuate that the guy is ungrateful and ungrateful, thus ruining his future.

After all, Ma Xiuzhen had worked as a clerk in the street office for more than ten years, so she could still tell good words from bad ones. Then she said in a panic:

"Director Li, please don't be surprised! I don't know what high position my son has become. I just know that his unit allocated him a villa yesterday. I will invite you to visit Haidian when the house is ready."

After saying this, Ma Xiuzhen left Director Li, who looked incredulous, and went back to the hospital.

"Villa! Haidian...the new capital!" Director Li is quite smart as he has climbed to a senior position in his 40s.

After he returned to the neighborhood office, he immediately found an old lady named Hongxiu who was familiar with Ma Xiuzhen to go to Zhang's house to investigate and find out whether the so-called unit villa was real.

If it is true, then the Zhang family is not someone he can afford to offend!

Unfortunately, Zhang Heping and his family went out to look at fabrics, leaving the old lady Hongxiu empty-handed.

When the old lady with red sleeves saw that the Zhang family's door was locked, she chatted with others about gossip and soon forgot about the matter.

These days, the best place to use foreign exchange is still the Friendship Store!

The shop assistants there are all trained and can identify the authenticity of magnesium dollars and Hong Kong dollars.

Unlike other stores, where you want to earn foreign exchange, the store clerks cannot identify the authenticity of foreign currency; when you encounter foreign exchange, you have to report it in a panic and then ask someone how to identify the authenticity of foreign currency.

After asking around for a long time, there were many people who were still afraid to accept it.

Some shops dare to accept foreign currency but still want corresponding receipts, which makes Zhang Heping speechless.
