Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

The play on TV, Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy, has reached a critical point. Usually at this time, Zhao Weimin would sing a passage along with Yang Zirong.

But now, Zhao Weimin turned a deaf ear to the opera.

There was only one piece of news in his mind...his beloved youngest son, Zhao Yihua, was gone, his head beaten into a rotten watermelon.

He supported himself on the table with one hand and held the phone with the other, his knuckles turning white from the exertion.

"Why did it turn out like this?" Zhao Weimin said in a hoarse voice.

"I don't know, Dad!" Zhao Yilin said terrifiedly on the other end of the phone, "There was no sign. Yihua had already agreed to come back with me, but he hadn't even taken two steps before he was gone."

"Is there anyone else at the scene?" Zhao Weimin took a breath and asked in a deep voice.

"Just...just..." Zhao Yilin paused and said, "Huang Hai and his wife, Huang Liang, Zeng Wangcai..."

"Zeng Wangcai? Didn't he not come? No, you are hiding something from me!" Zhao Weimin keenly sensed that something was wrong and shouted, "Tell me, what did Yihua do there?"

"Dad, Yihua..." Zhao Yilin no longer dared to hide anything and told him everything Zhao Yihua had done to Huang Hai and his wife. "Dad, this matter is definitely related to Zeng Wangcai."

"You beasts, you beasts!" Zhao Weimin burst into tears. "I have been innocent all my life, but you guys ruined it. Is that what a human would do? You drove me crazy. Why didn't you tell me earlier... Where is Zeng Wangcai?"

"Dad, no matter what, Yihua shouldn't die." Zhao Yilin said stubbornly, "I'll have Zeng Wangcai and the others arrested. I can't let this go without an explanation!"

"You bastard..." Zhao Weimin was heartbroken, but he did not lose his mind. He knew how important Zeng Wangcai was now. "Release them immediately. Don't touch them. Do you hear me? I'll call now."

He didn't care whether the boss understood or not, he hung up the phone immediately, then shook the phone and dialed again, connecting with Yang Yongan.

"Hello, I'm Zhao Weimin..."

Zhao Weimin's car drove out of the compound at night and arrived at a military compound with equally strict security.

Yang Yongan was waiting for Zhao Weimin in the house. After receiving the call, he asked before entering the house, "What did you mean by the phone call?"

"It's in Baotou..." Zhao Weimin told what happened there as he walked.

"What?" Yang Yongan was shocked. "This matter has become so serious. How did it get to this point? Your Yihua... Never mind. Please accept my condolences, but we have to deal with things first. Don't mind. Where is Zeng Wangcai now?"

"They did. I asked Zhao Yilin to pick up Yihua. After the incident, Yilin thought it was related to Zeng Wangcai, so he arrested all of Zeng Wangcai's gang."

"You caught him? It's over now..."

Yang Yongan was so anxious that sweat broke out on his head.

"I asked Yilin to release the people. Yilin is different from Yihua. He will definitely listen to me." Zhao Weimin said.

"If only it were that simple!" Yang Yongan scratched his head. "You don't know Zeng Wangcai. If he gets out so easily, I'll take your last name. Zeng Wangcai has always been very careful in what he does. Let me ask you, did anyone see Zeng Wangcai shoot? No one saw him. You arrest him..."

Zhao Weimin is exhausted, what's wrong?

My son died, and I caught a suspect, but something went wrong?

"Have some tea first, don't worry, I'll go and report!" Yang Yongan sighed, "Zeng Wangcai's matter is now a special matter, the leaders are keeping an eye on it... This is the reason for the incident."

Yang Yongan sighed again, left Zhao Weimin in the living room, went into the study alone, took the red phone and made an urgent report.

It took him more than ten minutes to come out after he made the call.

"How is it?" Zhao Weimin asked anxiously.

It's a pity that such a big boss has no idea what to do when faced with something related to Zeng Wangcai.

"Let's just forget about this..." Yang Yongan came out with a complicated look in his eyes, "Don't worry about releasing him. I'll make the call myself. Someone will talk to you later. You should handle it well."

"Forget it?" Zhao Weimin was shocked.

......

Armed Forces detention room.

Zeng Wangcai crossed his legs and smoked leisurely.

"Teacher, this noodles is really delicious, please eat more. This sausage is also delicious, please eat..." Tian Ye took a sausage from his bowl and put it into Shi Yan's bowl.

Four paper bowls without any trademark information, filled with instant noodles.

Although instant noodles are not very nutritious, they can fill the stomach and are convenient. So after Zeng Wangcai took control of the space, he took advantage of this convenience and stockpiled some of these noodles in case of emergency.

Zeng Wangcai obediently allowed himself to be captured by Zhao Yilin's men without any resistance. After Zhao Yihua was gone, those people were afraid of Zhao Yihua's tragic death and did not dare to do anything to Zeng Wangcai and the others.

"Just eat whatever you want!" Zeng Wangcai said as he threw away his cigarette butt. "After we go back, we can have a good meal to replenish our body. We can even book Fengzeyuan."

"I've heard of Fengzeyuan!" Tian Ye looked up and said, "I heard it serves Shandong cuisine..."

"Yes, it's Shandong cuisine!" Shi Yan said with a smile, "Tian Ye, come back with us and let Liangzi treat you to Fengzeyuan. Shandong cuisine is close to your hometown."

"Teacher, shall I really go back to Sijiu City with you?"

"It couldn't be more true..."

While they were chatting here casually, Zhao Yilin, who was standing outside the door, had a dark face.

Just now he released the person according to his father's instructions, but the person refused to come out.

Zeng Wangcai didn't come out, not because he was in a bad mood, but because he had other thoughts in mind. As long as Yang Yongan came to notify him, it would prove that the matter had come to an end for the time being, and Zhao Yihua's death had been suppressed.

After a while, Shi Yan and the other three finished their instant noodles and drank the soup. Only then did Yang Yongan call them in a tactful way.

Zeng Wangcai went out to answer the phone and came back: "Comrade Zhao Yilin, let's just forget about the fact that you arrested us for no reason. See you later... Uncle, Aunt, let's go back to the city!"

Zhao Yilin was so angry...but he had no idea what to do.

Sijiucheng, Siheyuan.

Snowflakes were falling. After the Zeng family's house was vacated, it was renovated. The main house has been restored to its original state, and the back house is still being renovated.

The project there was large, and the key was that the basement needed to be backfilled, so Zhang Xiuzhi took great pains to find Lei Daqiang and put him in charge.

Lei Daqiang has many apprentices now because he has to finish the work for Zhang Xiuzhi before the New Year.

"Master Lei, thank you for your hard work during this period of time. Let's eat in the yard. This shed doesn't block the wind, so please be polite." Zhang Xiuzhi invited Lei Daqiang and the others to eat.

A shed was built in front of the Zeng family's door to shelter them from the wind and snow. A pot was set up under the shed, with hot meat and vegetables stewed in it.

"That's great, there's wine and food!" Lei Daqiang wiped his face and said, "You are the best employers I've ever met. We've done a lot of work this year, and none of them is like yours. But I have to say one more thing. Your yard was fine back then, but why did you follow others' lead and build so many shabby houses now?"

This has to start with the earthquake this year. The earthquake did not destroy the courtyard house, but the rapid construction like mushrooms after a rain has ruined the courtyard.
