Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

After Liu Haizhong sat down, Director Wang continued to speak to Yi Zhonghai.

"Yi Zhonghai, after Sha Zhu beat Xu Damao, how did you mediate?"

Yi Zhonghai knew that he couldn't avoid this trap today, so he could only wipe the sweat from his forehead and argue through gritted teeth.

"Director Wang, I saw that Xu Damao was beaten very badly, so I asked Sha Zhu to pay him five yuan. You should also know that young people nowadays have very bad tempers and fights happen almost every day. A few days ago, Sha Zhu was beaten by a group of people from Yard 96, and in the end he paid five yuan. I don't think I did anything wrong, right?"

Yi Zhonghai also hopes to raise the incident of Sha Zhu beating Xu Damao to a social issue. At that time, fights do not happen every day, but there are always a few times a week and everyone is used to it. Some even use knives. The main reason is the aforementioned situation where the people do not report and the officials do not investigate. In addition, many people are illiterate and have no idea what the consequences of beating people are.

Director Wang didn't intend to do anything to Yi Zhonghai over this matter. With the deaf old lady speaking for him, it was impossible to take down Yi Zhonghai over this small matter. However, it was necessary to give him a warning and let him know who was the real leader in Nanluoguxiang.

"Old Yi, as the elder in the courtyard, the most important thing for you to do is to be fair and just. Look at what you did today. Xu Damao was already in the hospital before you asked He Yuzhu to pay five dollars in compensation. Is that reasonable?

If you can't do this, then you'd better change your player as soon as possible. Do you think I'm right?"

Yi Zhonghai heard that Director Wang didn't want to delve into his meaning, so he knew that he had overcome this hurdle today. As for Director Wang's criticism of him, he would just go along with it. It wouldn't hurt to say a few nice words.

"Director Wang, you are absolutely right. From now on, I will follow your instructions and be fair and just so that no one can find fault with me.

I was indeed careless in handling this matter today. Director Wang, please give me another chance to make amends. "

Director Wang shook her head and asked Yi Zhonghai to sit down. Since she was already at the courtyard, she should handle the matter herself. The police were already here, and if she didn't handle it well, she would be laughed at.

After dealing with the two old men in the yard, Director Wang got to the point.

"He Yuzhu, you beat Xu Damao into the hospital today. You decide how to compensate him. If you don't want to pay, that's fine. The police haven't left yet. We can just take you back and detain you for a few days to teach you a lesson."

Sha Zhu was no longer stupid at this time. The deaf old lady had just told him that he could pay any amount of compensation but he must not go to the police station, otherwise he would have a criminal record and might easily lose his job.

"Director Wang, I was wrong to hit Xu Damao, I accept the loss.

But today's matter must be made clear. It was Xu Damao who started the trouble. I would not have taken action if he hadn't said those words.

Uncle Xu, I was too harsh today, I'm sorry, I'll also pay for Damao's medical expenses."

When Xu Wude and Director Wang saw Sha Zhu's attitude, they knew that it must be the deaf old lady who gave the suggestion. Director Wang didn't know what to say, but Xu Wude was too embarrassed to speak.

"Shazhu, you said you grew up with my son Damao. Even if Damao said something you didn't like, you were too ruthless. I won't ask you for more. Just give me 300 yuan and let it go."

As soon as the 300 yuan was mentioned, there was a buzz in the yard.

"Fuck, this Xu Wood is too cruel. 300 yuan is equivalent to Sha Zhu's annual salary."

"That's right, Shazhu has really become a fool now. 300 yuan is enough to buy a private room."

Before Sha Zhu responded, Director Wang became unhappy.

"Xu Wood, are you sure you want 300 yuan in compensation? This is not a small amount."

Even if Director Wang disliked Sha Zhu, he would not ask him to pay Xu Damao 300 yuan for medical expenses. If the news got out in Nanluoguxiang that he had to pay 300 yuan for a fight, people outside might think that someone was beaten to death.

Besides, you, Xu Wood, don’t even live in this area anymore, yet you dare to bring outsiders to cause trouble in the area under my jurisdiction. This shows that you don’t take her, the leader of Nanluoguxiang, seriously at all.

Without waiting for Xu Wude to speak, Director Wang continued to ask the two police officers next to him.

"Comrade Wang Jun, how do you usually deal with people like this who rush into someone's yard and beat people up? Especially when they beat an elderly person so hard that his head is bleeding."

One of these two policemen is Wang Jun, deputy director of Jiaodaokou Police Station, and the other is police officer Xiao Baogang. How could they not be familiar with Director Wang of the Street Office?

Watching Director Wang asking questions, Wang Jun understood what the other party meant. He was trying to put pressure on Xu Wude.

"Director Wang, generally our police station will take back these bad guys who break into courtyards and injure people for a thorough interrogation. These guys are so skilled at their job that it's not their first time. If they've injured people before, we'll handle the case together. The specific sentence will depend on what they've done before, but the lightest sentence is at least six months in prison, and it's hard to say for the heavier ones."

Xu Wude saw that Director Wang and the police were in unison and knew that today's matter would be difficult to handle. Although he wanted to make Sha Zhu bleed, he had to bow his head under the eaves. He didn't want Sha Zhu to bleed in the end, otherwise they would also go to jail.

You have to know that these police officers are different from those in later generations. Once you enter the police station, you will be beaten and you can't escape. Things like hide-and-seek in later generations are child's play in those days.

If they use the same tactics they used against enemy spies, not only will they not mention whether they have beaten anyone in the past, they will even have to confess to the fact that they wet the bed when they were a child.

Director Wang saw that the time was almost right, and asked Xu Wude again with a smile.

"Lao Xu, don't you think asking Sha Zhu to pay 300 yuan is too much? Damao will have to live in this yard in the future. You don't want to make your neighbor and enemy the same, do you?"

Xu Wude knew that this was Director Wang's last chance to give him a way out. If he didn't take it, he wouldn't be so easy to talk to.

"Director Wang, you are right. I was a little narrow-minded just now. Although Damao's injuries are serious, they are only superficial. I think 50 yuan is enough for his treatment. Let Shazhu pay 50 yuan."

The matter finally came to a conclusion. Sha Zhu paid 50 yuan in compensation, and those guys who entered the yard and beat people were all taken away by the police. However, considering the bargaining scene just now, it is estimated that they can be released after a lecture.

Chen Xueru went back to the room and talked to Zhao Shanhe about it.

"Shanhe, didn't you say Director Wang is a very upright person? How come this matter was just left like this? He ran into the yard to beat someone up."

Zhao Shanhe peeled an orange for her and handed it to her and said.

"What else can we do? The food shortage has already made society a little restless. If the subdistrict office causes any more trouble, the district will probably come to the subdistrict office to hold it accountable. Stability is above all else. Do you understand this?

If it were in the past, Director Wang would not be so compromising. Harmony is above all else, my comrade Xueru."
