Siheyuan: I just want to live

As soon as Chen Feng entered the gate of the courtyard, he heard someone calling him. It was Yan Fugui's voice again. Chen Feng knew it was him without looking up.

"Chen Feng! Chen Feng..."

Chen Feng stopped and looked in the direction where the voice came from. Sure enough, he saw Yan Fugui jogging towards him from a distance.

"Chen Feng, where have you been these days? When did you come back?"

When Chen Feng looked up, Yan Fugui had already arrived in front of him.

Looking at Yan Fugui in front of him, Chen Feng laughed and said, "It's Teacher Yan, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Yan Fugui asked curiously, "Where have you been these days? Why haven't you been seen?"

Chen Feng smiled and explained: "Oh, the leader of our unit sent me to study, and I just came back today."

When Yan Fugui heard that Chen Feng had gone to study, his eyes suddenly lit up and he thought, "He's been gone for so long, he must have gone to a very far place. Maybe he'll bring back some local specialties!"

So Yan Fugui hurriedly asked: "Chen Feng, you have been gone for so long, did you bring back any local specialties?"

Seeing him like this, Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he still pretended to be serious and replied: "There are specialties, but they are not acceptable to ordinary people."

Yan Fugui was immediately interested and asked, "What is it? Let me see it."

Chen Feng looked at his impatient look, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and then said seriously: "I brought back two kilograms of bullets, do you want them? If you want, I'll go home and get a gun, and shoot you half a kilogram!"

After saying that, Chen Feng pretended to push his bicycle home to get his gun.

Seeing this, Yan Fugui turned pale with fear. He quickly stopped Chen Feng and said with an awkward smile: "Chen Feng, you are kidding! Who would give away bullets as a specialty?"

Chen Feng still said in a bad mood: "I'm going to learn how to shoot a gun. You want a specialty, so I can only give you bullets!"

When Yan Fugui heard Chen Feng say this, he suddenly reacted and said to Chen Feng.

"Oh! So that's what happened. It turns out that you, Chen Feng, went to training! I made a mistake and misunderstood you, haha..."

In response to Yan Fugui's words, Chen Feng asked sarcastically, "What else? Do you think I need to learn and train for my job as a gatekeeper? Do you think it's possible?"

Yan Fugui was even more speechless when asked by Chen Feng. He could only smile awkwardly and scratch his head, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Seeing his look, Chen Feng didn't want to continue to tangle with him, so he pushed his bicycle out of the gate, crossed the front yard and the middle yard, and returned to his home.

After dinner, Chen Feng entered the space. He first fed the chickens and rabbits some corn kernels and fresh grass. Seeing them eating with relish, Chen Feng felt satisfied.

Then he found that the farmland was a little dry, so he controlled the water stored above the space and carefully watered every inch of land.

After doing all this, Chen Feng walked out of the space contentedly and returned to his bedroom. Lying on the comfortable bed, he sighed with emotion: "Sure enough, it is still the most comfortable to sleep in a room by myself!"

He couldn't help but frown when thinking of the days in the barracks, when he had to endure the grinding of teeth from other people in the barracks every night, which made it difficult for him to fall asleep.

The next morning, Chen Feng woke up early, washed up quickly, and went out to work. On the way, he bought breakfast.

When he arrived at the scrap yard, Chen Feng found that he was the first one to arrive again.

Chen Feng skillfully opened the door of the scrap yard and walked into the communication room. After entering the room, he took out the silk banner and the letter of praise from his personal space and placed them on the table.

While waiting for Li Guotao to arrive, Chen Feng took out his novel again and sat on a chair to read it with relish. Time passed by, and before he knew it, it was past eight o'clock.

Chen Feng slowly stood up from his chair, holding those things tightly in his hands, and walked towards the office.

When he arrived at the office, he found Li Guotao was on the phone, so he stood quietly by and waited patiently for Li Guotao to end the call.

After Li Guotao put down the phone, he looked at Chen Feng standing beside him thoughtfully. After a moment of silence, he asked calmly, "How is your shooting skills going?"

Chen Feng scratched his head, a shy smile appeared on his face, and he replied softly: "It's okay. My trainer, Platoon Leader Luo, said that I have reached the assessment standard, which should be enough for a security guard."

Li Guotao nodded slightly to show his approval, and then asked, "Well, that's good! By the way, do you have anything else to say?"

Chen Feng quickly handed the silk banner and letter of praise to Li Guotao, and explained: "This is the silk banner and letter of praise that Captain Feng asked me to bring back, saying that it is to thank our unit."

Li Guotao took the banner, looked at the words on it carefully, smiled, and nodded with satisfaction. As for the letter of praise, he did not open it because it needed to be sent to the headquarters for filing.

Li Guotao looked at the banner in front of him. After a while, he turned his head and his eyes fell on Chen Feng. He asked with some curiosity: "Oh, by the way, Chen Feng, how much did you spend on this training?"

Chen Feng listened to Li Guotao's question and couldn't help but feel moved. He thought Li Guotao would help him reimburse the training expenses, so he answered without hesitation.

"Rifle bullets, accommodation and food total one thousand dollars, and two heavy machine gun bullet chains are also one thousand dollars, adding up to two thousand dollars."

After listening to Chen Feng's words, Li Guotao's expression became a little complicated. He muttered to himself that his old comrade was really black-hearted and actually charged him 2,000 yuan.

Chen Feng noticed that Li Guotao was silent and realized that Li Guotao might not intend to reimburse him for the training fee. He felt a little disappointed, but still forced a smile to hide his inner sense of loss.

So he said to Li Guotao again: "Stationmaster, I have something else to tell you."

After hearing what Chen Feng said, Li Guotao also came back to his senses. He said to Chen Feng: "Just tell me! As long as you don't ask me to reimburse the cost of this training, everything is fine!"

After hearing this, Chen Feng became even more speechless. The last bit of hope in his heart was extinguished by Li Guotao.

Chen Feng said helplessly: "Stationmaster, I'm not asking you to reimburse the training expenses, but for other things."

Li Guotao was relieved when he heard that Chen Feng did not want him to reimburse his training fees. He then said, "Well, what is it? Tell me, and I will arrange it for you if I can!"

When Chen Feng heard Li Guotao say this, he said, "Stationmaster, I am going to renovate my house in the next two days, so I have no place to live temporarily."

"Can I live in our station during the renovation? It's just right, my furniture can be pulled over and put under the shed."

When Li Guotao heard what Chen Feng said, he said happily, "What's my problem? You can live in the security room while your house is being renovated. I'll let the day shift guards stay in the lounge."

"I'll transfer the night shift security to them. Since you live in the station, they don't have to come to watch you at night."

After Li Guotao finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something else. So he asked Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, when will you start repairing the house? How many days will it take?"

Chen Feng immediately replied, "I just reported to the street office yesterday, and I haven't found a construction team yet. Shouldn't I go to the stationmaster and ask if I can live in the station first?"

Li Guotao nodded after hearing what Chen Feng said. Then he said to Chen Feng, "Well, I'll give you a day off today. Go find a construction team and you can move in today."

When Chen Feng heard what he said, a smile immediately spread across his face, and he immediately said, "Thank you, webmaster. I'll go find someone to move right away!"

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he wanted to leave the office and go back to find someone to help him move.

"Chen Feng, don't be in a hurry to leave!"

Seeing that he was about to leave, Li Guotao suddenly stopped him.

Chen Feng stopped walking after hearing this, looked at Li Guotao in confusion, and then asked, "Stationmaster, is there anything else?"

Li Guotao did not answer Chen Feng's question. Instead, he stood up from his chair, walked to the cabinet containing the weapons, opened the cabinet, and took out three boxes.

Then he said, "Last time you came to me, didn't you say you had no bullets?"

Chen Feng nodded. He had talked about this with Li Guotao before going to the military camp for training.

Seeing Chen Feng nod, Li Guotao continued, "While you were training, I found some Thompson bullets for you. Three thousand rounds, all here! Take them back, and use them sparingly this time!"

When Chen Feng heard Li Guotao's words, his face was full of smiles again, and he said to Li Guotao happily, "I understand, webmaster! I will definitely save some money!"

After saying that, Chen Feng couldn't wait to move the bullet away.

Li Guotao then said, "Why are you panicking? I haven't paid you yet!"

Chen Feng finally reacted and asked quickly, "Stationmaster, how much are these bullets?"

"Give me three hundred dollars!"

After hearing this, Chen Feng immediately took out money from his pocket, said three hundred, and put it on the desk.

Then he picked up the three boxes of bullets with difficulty and slowly walked out of the office.

Li Guotao looked at the impatient Chen Feng, smiled, and said nothing, watching him carry the bullet out of the door. Li Guotao sat back in his chair, put the money Chen Feng put down into his pocket, and then began to deal with the documents.

Chen Feng was so tired that he was out of breath. It took him a lot of effort to move the three boxes of bullets into the message room.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyes flashing with excitement, and he couldn't wait to open the box.

He quickly opened a box and was surprised by the scene inside - these bullets were not neatly arranged, unopened, brand new ammunition, but were in a scattered state.

Chen Feng suddenly realized, no wonder it took three boxes to load them!

But this did not affect his joy, as long as he had usable bullets, it was enough.
