Siheyuan: Silly Pillar is Kind

Seeing people around her constantly complimenting the lady, Jia Zhang also echoed a few words, but in her heart she was thinking that if her son Dongxu became a seventh-level worker, she would also be complimented in this way. If her son became an eighth-level worker...

Jia Zhang gave a silly smile, which startled the old lady.

I hope this picture of Cuihua won't make me go crazy...

On this side, Zhang Tiesheng summoned Liu Dezhe to his office.

"Why did you call the police about this? Do you know how much of a hindrance this has caused to my work?"

"Director, this really wasn't my intention. It was those idiots in the security department. Before I could react, they ran out and I couldn't stop them."

Zhang Tiesheng took a puff of cigarette and looked at Liu Dezhe who was standing in front of him, his eyes hidden in the smoke.

"Has the thief been found?"

"Not yet. We discovered someone stealing something earlier, and as planned, we even withdrew the night watchmen. Now we don't even have a clue."

Zhang Tiesheng looked at the subordinate in front of him who only knew how to flatter him. If he wasn't loyal, he would have kicked him away long ago.

But we still have to find a solution.

"De Ze, this matter is not about who did it, but we want him to be the one who did it, do you understand?"

Liu Dezhe was still smart enough. After hearing this, he realized that the factory director wanted to put this matter in the hands of someone who didn't listen to him.

"Director, why don't we just leave it at that? We have already made up for the shortfall."

Zhang Tiesheng took a puff of his cigarette and said slowly, "Do you think the factory or the police will let you go easily if there is no one to take the blame?"

"Will the police believe it?"

Liu Dezhe still said uncertainly.

"We have people over there too..."

......

"How is the secretary's contact with other factory directors going?"

"It's not going well. We can only give very little, and the other party asks for too much."

Zhang Tiesheng looked at Liu Dezhe speechlessly, and suddenly remembered that He Yuzhu came in the afternoon!

This guy's words were well-reasoned, and most importantly, whatever he said was righteous. Compared to this Liu Deze, I still like that clever guy more, and I immediately had an idea in my mind.

"De Ze, He Yu Zhu is here today. He will come to see you tomorrow. Please arrange for his relative to be a warehouse keeper. After the arrangement is made, tell him my home address."

"Okay, director."

Zhang Tiesheng waved his hand and Liu Dezhe went out. After closing the door, he saw that there was no one around and spat towards the door with disdain.

"What the hell! Do you really think I'm stupid? If anything goes wrong, you'll be the first one to push me out."

But he turned around and was helpless. He couldn't get off the boat. He had to reduce his traces in the gang. Then he walked back slowly.

The police investigated for a day but didn't find much. Judging from the lost materials reported by the steel mill, it seemed that the steel mill was about to be emptied. The amount of loss was so large that it was considered the largest case in the country.

But the superiors ordered a police station to investigate the case. Do they really treat us as dry food?

The application for assistance from the higher authorities was also rejected, saying that it was just a theft case and the lost items were not of great concern, and the police station’s own strength was enough. This made the director Yin Shouzhe very worried.

The fact that the Municipal Bureau didn't even give a deadline for solving the case made Director Yin wonder. After all, this was a large factory at the bureau level, and the head of the Security Department was at a higher level than himself, so he didn't even have the authority to interrogate people.

He just wanted to let the matter go, but Yin Shouzhe hated this kind of evil trend the most and wanted to find out who these rats were.

Yin Shouzhe came to Song Mingyu, the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, in the evening. Song Mingyu was his company commander when he was in the army, so it would be absolutely right for him to find him.

Song Mingyu returned home early today, asked his wife to postpone all meetings, made a cup of tea, and waited quietly for Yin Shouzhe to arrive.

After Yin Shouzhe entered the room, he was not surprised to see his old company commander waiting for him. His company commander had always been a master at commanding troops and always anticipated the enemy's moves.

However, when he saw his old company commander waiting for him, he realized that something was wrong.

Yin Shouzhe sat there quietly waiting for his company commander to speak. This was his company commander's habit, he would always sort out things before giving him instructions, but this time there were some surprises!

"Shouzhe, I can't help you with this matter. I even want to advise you not to investigate."

Yin Shouzhe was surprised. Is this still his company commander? How could he say such discouraging words? Surrendering before the battle even started?

"Captain, I want to know the reason."

"Our secretary talked to me today and pointed out some things to me. Although I am not afraid of him, he told me...he is just doing his job..."

Song Mingyu smiled helplessly, glanced at Yin Shouzhe and said, "Too many people are involved in this matter. The lost materials must be worth hundreds of thousands, right? I just took a look at the files and someone came to talk to me. Just imagine how many people are involved. Even someone like Dingtian would turn a blind eye, because it is not necessarily his own son or nephew who did it."

"But Captain, I believe in you. I believe you have a way to catch these rats in one fell swoop."

"Well, there is always a way, but not now, and it cannot be related to this case. Those people who are corrupt and pervert the law will not just do this one bad thing, right?" Song Mingyu blinked.

Yin Shouzhe said uncertainly: "Arrange spies?"

Song Mingyu glanced at him unsatisfiedly: "What do you mean by arranging spies? That's called undercover."

"But it's really hard to find such a candidate. The workers in the factory haven't received any training and they don't know how to hide. We can arrange for the police to send them to the Northwest factory to eat sand as soon as they show up here."

Song Mingyu said, "It has to be someone from the factory. Forget about someone from outside. As soon as we send someone out, they will know about it. This person also has to be smart. It's a must to have a brain. If he's not smart, he'll be sold out and help others count the money!"

Yin Shouzhe knew that this was a difficult task, but he still agreed.

Compared to himself, the company commander had to be more cautious.

"Don't worry, Captain. I will definitely find this person."

"Well, I believe you. Go back and think about it carefully! I need to think about it too!"

Yin Shouzhe walked out of the company commander's house with a heavy heart.

When he reached the door, he looked back and saw that the light was on in the company commander's study. He understood how much pressure the company commander was under at the moment, but when he turned around, he regained his heroic and courageous look.

He smiled disdainfully: "I beat up all the Eagles so badly that they lost their way. How can I be afraid of you?"

When Yin Shouzhe returned home, Liu Mei was observant and noticed that her husband looked a little depressed, but she knew her husband's rules that he could not tell her about work, so she could only tell him interesting stories about the neighborhood to cheer him up.

"Shouzhe, you know, that courtyard No. 95 is so interesting. A few days ago, I thought about planting vegetables in the courtyard. It was originally a good idea. You said you would plant it, so you plant it. But you had to hold a meeting for the whole courtyard. Now, the vegetables are planted at the door. I don't know which group of guys collectively urinated there and soaked the vegetables. Haha... I'm so happy..."

"Is there such a thing? The smell will last for a long time!"

......

Seeing her husband smile, Liu Mei also smiled knowingly.

As Yin Shouzhe was laughing, he suddenly thought of He Yuzhu!

The spy that guy caught last time was very excited, but now he is worried about not having enough manpower.

"Liu Mei, the one who accidentally caught a spy last time was called He Yuzhu, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong!"

"Didn't this kid call you sister last time? How is your relationship like?"

"What else can I do? You know how many people want to curry favor with me when I'm the director of the neighborhood. But after the incident, this guy never came to see me again."

"Didn't you come..."

Seeing her husband lost in thought, Liu Mei had no idea why her husband suddenly asked about this person.

......

Yin Shouzhe considered the candidates and decided that He Yuzhu was the best choice because no one was more suitable than him.

"Xiaomei, I have a case involving a steel mill. He Yuzhu is a very suitable person. Can you introduce him to me?"

Liu Mei and her husband secured this position because they caught a spy last time. They should have asked He Yuzhu to express their gratitude once, but Liu Mei saw that He Yuzhu was young, so she not only took all the credit on herself and her husband, but also did not even say a word to He Yuzhu.

If I ask He Yuzhu for help this time, it is inevitable that He Yuzhu will not agree.

Liu Mei just hoped that He Yuzhu didn't understand what was going on...

Liu Mei promised her husband and was also thinking about finding a middleman to help with this matter.

......

Sha Zhu was cooking the meal at a rapid pace. After thinking for a while, he steamed an egg cake for the old lady.

But he didn't know that the wind from all directions was blowing towards him.

......

After asking Zhang Ran to bring the food to the old lady, Sha Zhu started to wash up. As the exercises continued to run, his body was constantly eliminating toxins. Sha Zhu also liked this refreshing feeling.

After changing clothes, I rode my bike and walked away amid Zhang Ran's laughter...

A few people were strolling and chatting not far away. After Sha Zhu came out, one of them winked at him.

"Fourth Master, it's this kid. It was this kid who knocked Tie Shou down last time."

"Is that accurate? This kid doesn't look like he knows Kung Fu."

"It can't be wrong. The man on the street said it clearly..."

"Well, I'll meet him later and let him know that there are some things he can't get involved in."

......

When they arrived at Laomo, He Yuzhu looked at Zhang Ran, who seemed a little guilty, and held Zhang Ran's little hand.

Zhang Ran looked at her husband and calmed down.

"Just think of it as the next time you go to a restaurant. There will be plenty of opportunities like this in the future."

Zhang Ran muttered quietly, "I've only been to ordinary restaurants a few times."

There was a waiter at the entrance of the restaurant. When he saw Sha Zhu and the other man coming, he politely said, "Excuse me, sir and madam, we only accept foreign guests at the moment."

"Here is the letter of introduction. Please give it to your manager. By the way, please tell your manager that I will be paying for the meal in foreign currency this time!"

"Okay sir ma'am, please wait a moment!"

Sha Zhu looked at the waitress, who called him "sir" and "madam" all the time. She was polite, but he actually didn't let her in.

He turned around and said to Zhang Ran: "How about we jump in through the window?"

"Forget it. There's no way we can get any food even if we jump in!"

Sha Zhu suddenly felt that Zhang Ran’s thinking process was different from his own!

After a while, the waiter came out and stretched out his hand to He Yuzhu.

"The manager has specially approved this reception, but we have to arrange a private room for you. After all, the guests are foreigners, and the manager is afraid of unnecessary trouble. I hope you can understand."

"I understand... Just make your own arrangements..."

Sitting in the private room, the waiter brought over a menu, but looking at the words on it made Shazhu feel worried.

Sha Zhu said with a guilty conscience: "Brother, you also know that I came here with a mission this time. The factory will give you these foreign currencies. You can take them and ask the kitchen to prepare dishes, but they must be dishes for foreign representatives. Do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, I'll ask the manager for instructions! Wait a moment."

At this moment, Zhang Ran was stunned by the white tablecloth and exquisite porcelain tableware.

Zhang Ran had never thought that he would come to such a place. He had never dared to think about such a place before. The palace must be just like this!

After a while, the person who came over was not the waiter, but the hotel manager.

"Hello, Comrade He Yuzhu! Hello, lady! I am the manager of this restaurant. The letter of introduction also explains Comrade He Yuzhu's mission this time. In this way, I can ask the chef to make dishes that represent foreign countries, and I will introduce them. I also hope that Comrade He Yuzhu can better retain the talents who come here for the country!"

"That's great, thank you on behalf of the Steel Mill Restaurant!"

......

"You're welcome. We are all serving the country. I sincerely hope that there will be more good chefs and that we can keep those foreign technicians for a few more days. That way, our work will be meaningful!"

"I've learned my lesson! I will definitely study hard! Even if I have to keep them for one more day, I will try my best."

Sha Zhu was also infected by the patriotic sentiment in the manager's words. Before, he just wanted to take this opportunity to move up a level, but now he no longer had such an idea.

I hope I can contribute more to this country and this nation. Even if I am just a cook, I can make sure they...well...have enough to eat.

As each dish came up, the manager kept explaining, and even showed Sha Zhu the raw materials of some ingredients.

As the tasting ended, Sha Zhu and the other man ignored Zhang Ran who was eating voraciously and started chatting in a low voice.

"Manager, this foreign dish isn't difficult, why don't you promote it?"

......

"It's mainly because there are not many foreigners coming here, and you look at this issue from the perspective of a Chinese chef."

"Also, foreigners, both men and women, love to drink, and anything goes when they drink."

"I understand! But what kind of wine do these foreigners like?"

......

Sha Zhu, who got a lot of useful information, led Zhang Ran, who had eaten his fill, out of Lao Mo.

Zhang Ran whispered: "This manager is such a good person!"

Sha Zhu got on the car and replied, "Yes! There are still more good people."

When I got home, Yi Zhonghai came over.

“Zhu Zi, these families are difficult, you should have heard of them!”

"This old leader Wang leads his granddaughter to make a living by picking up scraps..."

"This auntie has a large family, and her son and daughter-in-law both work odd jobs..."

......

"There's also your Aunt Jia's house. There are only a few of them. See if they work!"
