Siheyuan, don't yell at me

The compound of the Public Security Bureau was in a commotion, and soon the director was alarmed.

The crowd automatically made way for him, and the director saw He Daqing, who was bragging inside.

When He Daqing saw the director coming, he quickly saluted with a not-so-standard salute.

"Director Wu, you are here.

I was just about to report to you about my work.

The night before yesterday, I led my men to destroy a black market den and seized a lot of stolen goods. I am here to hand them over."

Director Wu looked at the three carts loaded with things with a serious look on his face.

"This? Are the people in the black market so rampant now?

Chicken and duck eggs are fine, but there are also fat pigs and goats? It's more complete than the food station.

This is too much. Have we caught those bad guys?

Let’s examine it carefully to find out the source and identify the termites in the rice warehouse.”

When He Daqing heard this, he knew that Director Wu had misunderstood.

Large livestock entering the city must go through relevant procedures, and individuals do not have the ability to bring them in.

It's been two days and it's still so fresh, obviously it was freshly killed.

The appearance of these things on the black market must mean that something went wrong at the food station or the meat processing plant.

He Daqing looked at so many people and said:

"Director, I was just about to report this to you. How about we go in and talk?"

The director nodded, and before entering the house, he ordered two people to deliver the food to the cafeteria.

Inside the office, a clerk was holding a kettle and was about to make tea for the director when he was stopped by He Daqing.

"Comrade, wait a moment. I brought some good tea. Let Director Wu taste it."

After saying that, he took out an oil-paper bag, revealing the tips of tea leaves inside.

The roots are intact and the grains are distinct, and you can tell at first glance that this is top-quality tea.

Director Wu was also a connoisseur of the goods, so he picked up two and smelled them.

"Good boy, where did you get the Huangshan Maojian?

You are not qualified to drink this tea, tell me where it comes from."

He Daqing's eyes widened.

"Chief, what are you doing?

This is a trial of a prisoner.

After all, I, He Daqing, am a special meritorious contributor and a first-class combat hero.

Leaders, please take care of me, a junior. Isn't that too much?"

Director Wu laughed dryly twice.

"Haha, professional habit.

Xiao Liu, make the tea.

Chief He, you are going to report on your work, so let’s talk about this.”

He Daqing sat up straight and moved forward.

“Commander, this is what happened.

The day before yesterday, I cracked down on that black market and seized more than a dozen cartloads of stuff.

The things were very messy, with corn flour, sorghum flour, radishes, potatoes, pumpkins, straw mats, linen rolls and the like making up the vast majority.

There were too many things, so I took them to the cooperative downstairs and exchanged them for meat and eggs..."

Director Wu frowned when he heard this.

"Nonsense! Who gave you the right to do this?"

He Daqing is very unhappy now. What the hell, I provide you with food and drinks, and this is how you treat your undergraduate senior?

"Director, I was wrong. I will take the things back right now and replace the cornmeal and other sundries."

He Daqing stood up and was about to go out, but was stopped by Director Wu.

"He Daqing, please sit down.

I said a few words to you and you got angry. This won't happen again.

Have you arrested anyone? Have you uncovered anything during the interrogation?"

He Daqing then smiled again, nodded and sat back in his seat.

“Those caught were ordinary people and some small cadres.

The common people want to exchange fine grains for coarse grains, and the small cadres want to eat more fine grains.

There are also some middlemen and people who are selling off their ancestral property.

They are now digging the foundation and building a factory building in our factory and participating in labor reform.

I thought that they were just poor people trying to fill their stomachs, so I didn't make it difficult for them and had already released most of them.

There are a dozen or so lazy ruffians among them. I plan to send them to labor camp for a year or so..."

Director Wu drank tea, his eyes relaxed, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Listening to He Daqing's report, it seemed as if they tacitly agreed with He Daqing's approach, with neither opposition nor support.

There are a lot of things to do in the bureau, and it would be a good idea for the security department to deal with these petty hooligans on their own.

He Daqing carefully observed Director Wu's expression, his eyes rolling around a few times.

It seems that the director is quite satisfied with the way I, He Daqing, handled the matter.

Come to think of it, if I don't add any burden to the bureau and still earn income, then am I not a good comrade?

"Ha~

This tea smells so good~"

He Daqing sipped his hot tea, praised the tea, and continued:

"Director Wu, I have something else I want to ask you.

For many people who had many children at home or who had married country women, the rations were simply not enough for them to eat, so they had to take the risk of going to the black market to exchange fine grains for coarse grains to survive.

For those people who are trying to fill their stomachs, if we crack down on the black market here, they will run to other black markets to find a way to make a living so that their wives and children will not starve..."

Director Wu sighed, his face changing from gloomy to happy.

Nowadays, among the common people at the bottom of society, who doesn’t struggle for food?

Is it wrong to feed the whole family? Of course it is right.

But is there anything wrong with the policy from above? There is nothing wrong with concentrating resources on major tasks.

Now that the country wants to pursue large-scale development, heavy industry, and military industry, it can only do so by squeezing the money out of the people's pockets.

If you lag behind, you will be beaten. Going hungry now is for the sake of the future, so as to avoid becoming meat on the chopping board of other countries.

Seeing that Director Wu didn't say anything, He Daqing became bolder.

"Director Wu, I have a bold idea, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not.

If you don't say anything, I will speak.

This is what I think, it is better to block than to loosen.

I want to capture those scoundrels and let them continue to operate in the black market.

The hooligans must accept the supervision of our security department and put an end to all illegal and criminal activities.

On the other hand, we should try our best to allow the people to exchange a small amount of supplies for a certain amount of food rations.

Director, the people are suffering.

Cornmeal and wild vegetable dumplings for every meal are still not enough.

The kids in my neighborhood all had big bellies, which were swollen with cornmeal and tree bark.

Many times, the kids cried out because of hunger, and it made me feel terrible just listening to them.

If this cuts off their way to exchange fine grains for coarse grains, I’m really worried that they will starve to death…”

As He Daqing spoke, he twitched and sobbed, peed like a cat, and his eyes were filled with tears, and his acting skills were amazing.

It’s not all acting, after all, these things are real.

The residents of the courtyard houses basically have proper jobs and their houses are allocated to them.

Those who live in slums are miserable. Not only do they have a bad living environment, but they also have to pay rent.

All I do are hard labor and odd jobs.

Director Wu felt unhappy when he heard this. People are all made of flesh and blood. As a cadre, who doesn't have a sense of compassion for the world?

"He Daqing, you are a grown man, aren't you ashamed?

Are you crying with me here?

Why are you asking me about this?

You are the head of the security department, and you have to ask me about everything. Are you here to do this for free?

Get out, get out, it's your own business, take charge of it..."
