Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background
Chapter 33 Fire
Jia Zhang's idea was nice, but she was not a smart person.
She didn't think about how outsiders could know so much, as if it were her own family who even knew where it was placed.
And if a fire breaks out in the middle of winter, it must have been caused intentionally.
She was dazzled by the huge sum of three thousand yuan. Once the police were called, they would probably start with the people in the hospital. With Banggeng's beginner's technique, he would be found out without a doubt.
However, Jia Zhang's way of thinking is different from others.
As long as she can get the money, she doesn't care about the consequences.
This is just like Cao Xing was certain that Banggeng would sneak in and steal money. The upper beam is crooked, and the lower beams will be crooked too.
In the afternoon, the cold winter slowly showed its coldness.
There are fewer and fewer people chatting outside.
The women also went indoors to keep warm instead of freezing outside.
The third aunt was knitting a sweater in the room when suddenly a smell of smoke came over.
"Who's cooking so early?"
She didn't care either.
But the smell of smoke became stronger and stronger, and slowly the smoke seeped into the room.
The three aunts finally reacted and ran out quickly.
I saw the weeds and wood placed inside the front yard wall were burning fiercely!
"Fire! Fire! Put out the fire!"
The three aunts shouted loudly, calling out everyone from the three courtyards.
Even people who were strolling at the gate of the courtyard hurried in.
"Ah, there's a fire, find some water!"
"Oh my god, hurry up and get some water, or this house will be destroyed!"
A few idle old men outside the yard were quicker than the women and poured out basin after basin of water.
Finally, after half an hour of work, the fire was almost put out, and the group of people breathed a sigh of relief.
The third aunt was not stupid, and she said immediately: "This fire is unusual. In this weather, even if you throw a match over there, it won't start such a big fire."
The second aunt holding the bucket was also surprised and said: "This fire is so fierce, it must not be caused by nature. I think someone set the fire on purpose."
Many women also nodded.
If this fire was caused naturally, the smoke would have been very heavy and it would have been discovered before it was fully ignited.
When the three aunts discovered it, the fire had already started. It was obvious that someone had done it deliberately.
It seemed that they knew a lot about what happened in this courtyard, so those people from other courtyards who came to put out the fire all left, as if they were afraid of getting involved.
The group of old women had no idea what to do, and since the three uncles were not around, they had no choice but to deal with the matter hastily.
Cao Xing from the steel rolling mill waited until the end of his shift, then went to the military compound to cook himself a sumptuous meal. After cleaning up, he returned to the courtyard.
When we arrived at the courtyard, the meeting had already started in the central courtyard.
Second uncle Liu Haizhong got his fill of being a leader this time.
When Yi Zhonghai is not around, he, as the second uncle, is definitely the most authoritative person.
Liu Haizhong was seen holding a large porcelain jar in his hand with a dignified look on his face.
"Thank you all for taking the time to attend this hospital-wide meeting. As the second uncle in the hospital, I, Liu Haizhong, will be in charge of all matters in the hospital during the time when the first uncle is injured."
"Thank you for your trust!"
"I will do my best to fulfill the tasks assigned to me by the subdistrict office, maintain the affairs of the courtyard, help everyone mediate conflicts, and enable everyone to have a good living environment."
“I also hope that you can support my work and provide convenience for my future work.”
"We are all neighbors in the courtyard. We should live in harmony in the future. If you have any conflicts that cannot be handled, please come to me. As the head of the courtyard, I will definitely handle them impartially and maintain good relations between neighbors."
"..."
This conversation lasted for a full half hour, and everyone was drowsy.
Cao Xing felt very amused. Liu Haizhong must have prepared for today's scene for a long time. He talked for a long time but none of his words hit the point.
He didn't want to listen to his long speech here, so he walked straight across the middle courtyard and prepared to go back to his room to sleep.
Maybe it was because it was his first time as a leader, his bangs were fluttering, and he was so excited that a figure didn't even give him face and walked straight over. Before he could see clearly, he opened his mouth and shouted.
"Hey, you, why didn't you listen to the whole hospital meeting? Can you bear the responsibility for not implementing the party's instructions?"
Cao Xing said nothing, just glanced at him coldly.
Liu Haizhong then saw clearly that it was Cao Xing. He was looking at him with cold eyes, which made him shudder all over.
"Xiao Cao, I didn't see it was you, please walk slowly, walk slowly."
Cao Xing ignored him and walked back to the backyard.
No one expected that Liu Haizhong, who was so high-spirited just now, was so afraid of Cao Xing. This made everyone have a deeper impression of this young man.
Liu Hai has so much pain that he can't express it. If you have ever seen this monster Cao Xing fight, you would be scared!
Jia Dongxu couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Second Uncle, are you going to talk about it or not? It's been half an hour, and we haven't even had our meal yet."
Liu Haizhong stared at Jia Dongxu. He was afraid of Cao Xing, but not this fellow. "Jia Dongxu, Yi Zhonghai usually favors you, but he is not here now. I am the boss now. If you want to have a good life, sit down obediently, otherwise I will make you pay for it!"
Jia Dongxu's tone was blocked. Although he was rich now, he didn't dare to confront Liu Haizhong when he was anxious.
After all, Liu Haizhong is a seventh-level blacksmith and has certain connections in the factory, so it is very easy to cause trouble for him.
After all, he is not welcome in the workshop now and Yi Zhonghai is not here.
I could only sit down reluctantly and continue listening to the lecture.
Seeing that he had intimidated Jia Dongxu, Liu Haizhong felt very proud and his official authority grew even stronger.
"As the second uncle in the hospital, of course I have to solve problems for the hospital. If any of you don't listen, you can leave. But we have plenty of time in the future to see who can beat whom."
Just now I spent a lot of time talking about cooperation and how to work actively, but now I'm threatening you again. This is so inconsistent and outrageous.
"As for the fire in the courtyard today, don't worry. Since the fire has been put out, don't go to the police station. This will damage the reputation of our courtyard."
Cao Xing had just entered the room, but his sensitive ears could hear what Liu Haizhong said in the middle courtyard.
Hearing this, he almost burst out laughing.
This guy is truly talented. He talks a lot at the beginning, but gets things done with just one sentence at the crucial moment.
You said that you didn't allow me to report to the police station, but you should at least investigate the damage caused by the fire and the source of the fire. Liu Haizhong couldn't even think of such a simple thing, and you still want to be a leader?
Being a production team leader is hard!
Everyone in the Intermediate Court was speechless. This Second Master who could only talk about big principles was simply a waste and was far worse than Yi Zhonghai.
However, Yi Zhonghai also has shortcomings. The title of "The Lord of Morality" is well-deserved. They are very annoyed when he instills the idea of respecting the elderly and loving the young in them from time to time.
And when Cao Xing extended his sixth sense to Yi Zhonghai's house, everything he saw made him drop his jaw!
The room was in a mess. Not only was the money gone from the three places where money was kept, but all the food in the kitchen was gone!
This isn't even stealing, even burglary isn't this messy!
