Siheyuan, my new life

Director Wang directed nearly 20 staff members from the street office to quickly clean up the large warehouse next to the canteen. Originally, it was used to store some furniture and other sundries confiscated from the homes of reactionary capitalists and old bureaucrats. Later, after the items in it were transported away, it was left idle.

After the staff cleaned the floor of the warehouse, Director Wang asked someone to find some wooden boards and sacks and started laying them on the ground.

A middle-aged female clerk approached Director Wang and asked curiously, "Director Wang, how much supplies is the Steel Mill Security Department sending to our Street Office? Do we still need to use this large warehouse?"

Director Wang raised his lips slightly: "Want to know? You'll know when the car arrives."

The more Director Wang kept the suspense, the more curious the clerks became. Unfortunately, no matter how they asked, Director Wang just ignored them.

At around 8:30 in the morning, two brand new Bald Eagle general-purpose trucks parked one after the other at the gate of Jiaodaokou Subdistrict Office. This was because Director Wang had informed the guard at the gate in advance, otherwise they would not have been allowed to park here directly.

As soon as the first General Motors truck stopped, a tall and beautiful woman pushed open the door and got out of the truck.

Zhou Xiu greeted him with a smile, and Director Wang followed behind.

After seeing the face of the girl who got out of the truck cab, Zhou Xiu's eyes lit up and she smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Zhou Xiu. Thank you for your hard work, comrades from the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill."

Although she had prepared herself mentally, Su Yu still felt a little nervous when she met the secretary's mother. She quickly shook hands with her and said hello: "Hello, Secretary Zhou. I am Su Yu, serving as Secretary Lin's clerk."

Zhou Xiu held Su Yu's soft little hand and said enthusiastically: "I often hear Xiaoyu mention that thanks to your hard work, he has reduced a lot of work. Thank you so much."

A blush flashed across Su Yu's delicate face, and she was secretly delighted, but she still smiled and said, "I really don't deserve the title of Secretary Zhou. I just did something insignificant."

In this situation, Zhou Xiu didn't want to pull Su Yu to continue talking, didn't she see that almost all the staff of Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office had gathered around the truck, and were looking curiously into the car. Even many passers-by stopped to watch with a curious look on their faces.

Unfortunately, the carriages were covered with military green tarpaulins, and each truck had six fully armed security guards in the carriage.

Zhou Xiu only introduced Director Wang to Su Yu. As for the other two deputy directors who were standing beside them with eager eyes, she had no intention of introducing them at all.

The two deputy directors claimed to be the old hands of the Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office. Although they dared not openly disobey Secretary Zhou's words on weekdays, they were more concerned about Secretary Zhou's identity and background. After all, they were not deaf and blind. Secretary Zhou's eldest son, who was less than 30 years old, was the deputy secretary and deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, secretary of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and a senior leading cadre at the bureau level. This was no secret among the cadres in Dongcheng District. Unless they were mentally ill, no one would be so stubborn as to go against Secretary Zhou. It's just that their specific work attitude was not good. On weekdays, they always had a cup of tea and a newspaper. They basically sat in the office for half a day, or ran to the office below to flirt with some female comrades. They only went through the motions for the work under their charge, and only talked big during meetings.

If she had not just taken office, Zhou Xiu would have directly applied to her superiors to transfer these two guys who were just sitting there doing nothing. However, she had already made up her mind to submit a report to the Dongcheng District Committee after the Spring Festival and to get these guys out as soon as possible.

Su Yu took out a list from her purse and handed it to Zhou Xiu: "Secretary Zhou, the secretary asked me to send over 1,000 kilograms of beef, 1,000 kilograms of pork, 2,000 kilograms of rice, and 2,000 kilograms of flour. In addition, you paid for the secretary to buy 200 kilograms of imported milk powder, 200 kilograms of chocolate, and 200 kilograms of sugar."

Zhou Xiu casually glanced at the list and handed it directly to Director Wang next to him: "Director Wang, arrange for the comrades to unload the car immediately."

Without waiting for Director Wang to speak, Su Yu shouted to the security guard in the carriage: "Captain Zhang, unload the car."

Captain Zhang of the third squad of the action team who was in charge of escorting the team today agreed loudly, then waved to the team members standing in the carriage: "Unload the car."

Following Captain Zhang's order, the team members quickly untied the military green tarpaulin covering the carriage. Everyone present was surprised to see that the first general-purpose truck was filled with neatly arranged cartons of various sizes. What surprised everyone was that all the cartons were printed with foreign letters; the second general-purpose truck was filled with white cloth bags.

Director Wang quickly ordered the staff of the street office to take the cartons handed over by the security guard, and he personally carried one and walked quickly towards the large warehouse.

It was not until this time that the people nearby noticed that the cardboard boxes that had just been handed over were printed with images of cows and pigs. Many people began to whisper and speculate about what was in the boxes.

Su Yu smiled and said to Zhou Xiu beside her: "Secretary Zhou, these boxes are all beef and pork, each box weighs 50 kilograms, a total of 20 boxes of pork and 20 boxes of beef; chocolate is 10 kilograms per box, and there are small packages inside, each one is one tael; milk powder is 20 kilograms per box, each box has 20 bags; white sugar is 50 kilograms per box, each bag is one kilogram."

The two deputy directors who were standing by and thinking about going forward to talk to her, saw that Director Wang had already carried the box himself, so they could only join the team moving the boxes with gloomy faces. They were just feeling a little depressed. They had originally planned to take the opportunity to get to know the beautiful female comrade in front of them. It was not that they had any bad intentions, and even if they were given three more guts, they would not dare to set their sights on her. You have to know that she is Secretary Lin's clerk. If they dared to set their sights on her, it would be like hanging themselves and seeking death. They just wanted to take the opportunity to get to know her, and maybe they would ask to come to her someday in the future. Unfortunately, Secretary Zhou did not introduce them to each other at all, and they were in the public eye, so it was not easy for them to take the initiative to go forward and talk to her.

However, the staff of the street office nearby became excited at this time. They had heard clearly just now that the truck was carrying all kinds of pork, beef, imported milk powder, chocolate and sugar.
