Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Feng Sizhe smiled and said to the proprietress, "Then I'll have one too."

To be honest, Feng Sizhe hasn't eaten in such an occasion for a long time. Even if he went out to eat before, it was in a private room, not in such an environment. Looking at the guests around him eating with relish, Feng Sizhe showed a smile on his face. Such a life is rare.

Soon the proprietress brought the potato noodles and lotus seed and pork ribs soup.

Liu Shuang took the bowl, added a bowl of soup and placed it in front of Feng Sizhe, saying, "Boss, please try it and see how it tastes!"

Feng Sizhe smiled, took a bite, and felt that it tasted indeed good. The flavor of the pork ribs mixed with the fragrance of the lotus seeds gave people a lingering aftertaste.

"Hurry up... hurry up... uh..."

At this moment there was a noisy sound at the door.

Feng Sizhe looked up and saw several people carrying loads of peaches, bayberries and other fruits running in panic towards the small path up the mountain opposite. Judging from their clothes, they were all ordinary vendors selling fruits on the street, or perhaps farmers in the suburbs.

"Oh, what a sin." The proprietress sighed.

Feng Sizhe was about to ask when he saw a car marked "Urban Management" driving over quickly and stopping on the side of the road. Several men in uniform jumped out of the car and quickly chased after it. One of the tall guys rushed over and kicked a middle-aged woman carrying two small baskets of peaches to the ground. The peaches immediately rolled all over the ground and scattered along the slope.

"Ah..." The woman screamed, but she still struggled to get up and reached out to help the bamboo basket that had fallen to the side. But the urban management officer who got off the car didn't care at all, and kicked the peach seller to the ground, causing her to scream, but she still struggled to get up and reached out to help the bamboo basket that had fallen to the side. Another man next to her kicked her fiercely, sweeping the bamboo basket in front of her into the middle of the road.

"I've told you so many times, but you just won't listen. You're so shameless." A man cursed and stomped hard on another bamboo basket.

Seeing that her two small baskets of peaches were being wasted, the middle-aged woman yelled angrily and reached out to grab the bamboo basket that was being stepped on. In fact, there were only a few peaches left in it, and most of them had already rolled onto the road. The other vendors had already taken the opportunity to run away. Seeing this, the urban management officer who jumped off the car was very annoyed. Seeing the middle-aged woman trying desperately to grab the bamboo basket, one of the guys grabbed her hair angrily, pointed a finger at her face and said, "Still trying to grab it, you are shameless..."

Feng Sizhe's face had already darkened when he saw this scene. These city management officers are too abominable. Can't you just give them a lecture? They are just like bandits when they are so aggressive. This is still a world led by the Party, and we still have the belief of serving the people.

The more he looked at it, the more outrageous it seemed. Feng Sizhe's righteousness couldn't help but emanate from him. He slowly stood up and wanted to say something about the matter.

"What are you doing? How can you bully people like this?" Just as Feng Sizhe was about to step forward to stop these people's actions, a young man suddenly walked out from the crowd of onlookers.

He is an intellectual, wearing a pair of glasses, a white shirt, black pants, and polished leather shoes. Next to this young man is a girl of similar age, who is in her early twenties. She has fair skin, a slim figure, and long black hair. She looks very beautiful and has a lot of temperament.

The city management officers were furious when a pair of young men suddenly appeared. Their eyes immediately turned to them. "Ah, there are still people who dare to meddle in our affairs these days. Are you really that bold?"

Normally, these urban management officers are in charge of this area. They are usually very arrogant here. In the past two days, they received news from above that a new mayor is coming and that senior central government officials are also needed. In order to make the city cleaner, they were ordered to come here to improve the environmental sanitation. Now that someone has come forward to interfere with their work, of course they will not give in.

Facing four or five urban management personnel, the young man was not afraid at all, and spoke in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant, "How can this be called meddling in other people's business? Your way of enforcing the law is obviously not in accordance with procedures, and anyone with a conscience can stand up and intervene."

"Hey, you are so arrogant, tell me, what do you do?" Seeing that the young man was obviously dressed very ordinary but neatly, the urban management officer did not take action immediately but wanted to test the other party's background first.

"I'm a staff member of the municipal government. What's wrong?" The young man was not afraid of trouble. After saying these words, he took out an ID from his jacket pocket and handed it over. "My name is Liu Fei, and I'm a staff member of the municipal government office. I have a lot of complaints about your brutal law enforcement. Please apologize to this lady immediately."

Liu Fei was probably about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, and the woman selling peaches was around fifty years old, so it was not excessive at all for him to call her auntie.

The city management officers took Liu Fei's ID and took a look at it. After confirming his identity, their tone became much better. "So it's Comrade Liu. Haha, hello, hello."

"Don't try to get close to her. Apologize to this aunt immediately." Liu Fei said stubbornly.

For ordinary urban management personnel, the staff of the Municipal Government Office are indeed something they cannot afford to offend, but it is not easy to ask them to apologize publicly. Think about it, they hang out in this area every day, and if they really bow their heads today, how can they work in the future?

"Comrade Liu, can we not hold her responsible?" In the eyes of the urban management, not holding the peach seller responsible was already a great favor. As for apologizing, they absolutely did not want to do it.

"No." Liu Fei answered seriously. In fact, many people present knew that even if the government officials did something wrong, they would just stop doing it. It was really difficult to ask them to apologize, because from a certain perspective, these people represented the image of the government.

Feng Sizhe was of course very clear about this. Seeing Liu Fei taking the initiative to stand up and looking like he would not give up until he achieved his goal, he was also very curious. He wanted to see what the urban management personnel would do next and what Liu Fei, who suddenly appeared, would do.

Liu Fei's "no" made some of the city management officers who wanted to solve the problem in a low-key manner unhappy. One of the fat men looked at Liu Fei and took out his mobile phone to make a call. After he nodded and said a few words, he kept answering, "Yes, yes, Director Lai, I understand." After he said that, he hung up the phone, looked at Liu Fei, shook his head, and said, "We will not apologize, what do you want to do."

The urban management officers also became stubborn at this moment. Normally, no matter where they appeared, they were met with begging for mercy and pleading. But today, suddenly some people showed up and meddled in other people's business. There were not many of them to begin with, and after someone meddled in other people's business, they also wanted to keep things quiet, but the other party wouldn't let them. So one of them simply called their superior to ask for work. Now, after getting the superior's attitude, they became more assertive in their words.

Liu Fei had not expected that the urban management staff would suddenly become tough. He originally wanted these people to apologize to the aunt and let the general public know that even people in government agencies would admit their mistakes if they did something wrong. After all, they are also human beings and it is impossible for them to be without flaws. However, he did not expect that they had no intention of apologizing at all, which made him a little unsure of what to do next.

"Liu Fei, if it doesn't work, I'll just call my dad." The girl standing next to Liu Fei saw that the urban management's attitude had become tough, so she pulled Liu Fei's hand and took the initiative to put forward a suggestion.

"Okay." Liu Fei thought about it. Although he was a staff member of the municipal government, he was just a small clerk and had no say at all. Now he was facing a group of unreasonable urban management officers. It was like a scholar meeting a soldier. He couldn't explain himself even if he was right. If he wanted a better solution at this time, it seemed that only by finding a tougher person could the problem be solved. So he agreed with his girlfriend's opinion.

Liu Fei's girlfriend was named Wang Ling. She looked at her boyfriend and nodded in agreement. Then she took out her cell phone, made a call, and said something to the phone. The call was a little long. Feng Sizhe saw that the girl took the initiative to ask her father for help. He also thought that this must be someone with some power, but the girl made a long call, which made him a little confused. What was going on?

In fact, Wang Ling's father is indeed in a high position. He is the deputy secretary-general of the General Office of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Government. As a sub-provincial city, the rank of this deputy secretary-general is also at the level of a director. It is not too difficult for a director-level cadre to come forward to solve this matter. But the difficulty is that the relationship behind the Urban Management Bureau is indeed very strong. Everyone in Zhuangcheng knows that the director of the Urban Management Bureau, Wu Yinghua, is relying on Wang Guoguang, a member of the Standing Committee of the Zhongzhou Provincial Party Committee and the Secretary of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee. He is not only the top secretary of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee, but also one of the thirteen Standing Committee members of Zhongzhou Province. He is a person who will make the officialdom of Zhongzhou Province tremble if he stomps his feet. It is precisely because of this powerful backer that the people under the Zhuangcheng Urban Management Bureau are lawless and dare to punch and kick people in broad daylight.
