Siheyuan: Sizhu starts blindly and takes a new path

Of course, the projectionist couldn't answer the production team leader's question, "Who made the rules?" He also knew that he wouldn't get anything this time, so he packed up the projector and rode back to the Red Star Steel Mill angrily.

When he got to the office, he didn't dare to tell Jin Dachui, after all, the other party had clearly told them not to do it the same way as before. However, he was an ally, so he called the other projectionists to a deserted place and asked each other. Some of them were rejected like him and didn't get their things back. When discussing how to deal with it, someone suggested: "Since it's not good to ask for things after the movie, why don't we get them before the movie to save trouble later."

On the morning of the third day, Jin Dachui received a call from the team leader of Xiangyang Production Team, asking him to go over and pick up the people.

Jin Dachui's heart skipped a beat, thinking that what was supposed to happen had finally happened. He remained calm and said cheerfully, "Captain, what's wrong? Did the projectionist not show up, or did they not show the movie?"

"It would have been better if he hadn't come. I wouldn't have to be angry, and I wouldn't have to disappoint the members and end up beating him up."

"Hit?" Jin Dachui's voice suddenly became louder.

The other party on the other end of the phone also heard it and asked back: "I hit him, so what? He doesn't work properly and is also causing trouble. Who else should I hit? Without saying anything else, come over here quickly. Let's discuss how to deal with it."

In the middle of winter, Jin Dachui stood in front of the captain of the Xiangyang Brigade, sweating profusely. He tried his best to force a smile on his frozen face, which was uglier than crying. "Captain Li, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble. How about I show you two movies myself tonight?"

"We're not talking about showing a few movies right now. Come inside and take a look first."

Entering the room next to the team headquarters, Jin Dachui saw that his men were tied up with something stuffed in their mouths. As soon as the man saw him come in, he struggled violently, looked for help with his eyes, and made a "woohoo" sound with his mouth. His messy hair and the black and bloody circles around his eyes showed the unclear injuries he had suffered last night.

"He was too arrogant last night, so he was beaten up by a dozen guys from our team. He was quite brave, but he still refused to keep quiet after being beaten, so we had to gag him."

"Captain Li, what exactly happened? Even if our projectionist is arrogant, he shouldn't be beaten." Although Jin Dachui could guess the general situation, he still wanted to hear the details to see if he could explain it and make amends.

Captain Li was about to speak when a young man next to him pointed angrily at the projectionist on the ground and said, "This bastard was so arrogant when he arrived at the team. We prepared two dishes for him, one meat and one vegetable, but he was not satisfied and insisted on having four meat dishes. We prepared them for him, but he asked for wine. Our captain said that we would accompany him to drink after the movie, but he disagreed. The captain had no choice but to get him wine. This bastard started to act crazy and asked for things after drinking. He asked for peanuts, fungus, rabbits, and finally hens. Hens are raised at home and wait for eggs to lay. How can you just give them away? This bastard threatened not to show the movie if he didn't give it to him. At that time, the members had been waiting at the venue for a long time. How could he say no to the movie? The captain gave him his own hen, but he not only refused to give up, but also went further and asked for another one, saying that he wanted to make up for the loss last time?"

The young man's temper flared up again. He kicked the projectionist twice and asked Jin Dachui, "We just want to know what we want to make up for our losses. Do we still owe you anything?"

"No, no, I guess he was just drunk and talking nonsense."

"He wasn't talking nonsense. He said he didn't get what he wanted from another production team last time, so this time he got it from us. He said it several times. He looked no different from a bandit or a Japanese devil!"

After hearing this, Jin Dachui quickly stopped him, "Hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, young man, be gentle with your words."

"You better be more lenient. We rural people depend on the land for everything we earn, and we don't make much money throughout the year. It's a new society now. Showing movies in the countryside was originally a job assigned by the state. I don't know when it became something we have to beg you for. At first, you refused to show movies properly if you didn't give us good food, and then you gradually demanded more things, and now you can't even give us anything. You really want to rob people."

Jin Dachui was sweating profusely at what the other party said. He was sweating all over again after riding his bike here. He was cold and scared. He gritted his teeth, walked over to the projectionist, kicked him a few times, and cursed: "I told you to work hard and don't take bribes. You didn't listen and asked for more. I'm so mad at you."

Seeing Jin Dachui like this, Captain Li winked at the people next to him and pulled Jin Dachui back, saying, "Chief Jin, don't be angry, and don't hit him. I have already reported this to our commune. After all, there was a fight yesterday. I guess our commune secretary will look for the secretary of your steel mill."

"Ah, why did you report it?" Jin Dachui became even more anxious. He grabbed the captain's hand and confirmed again: "Did you really report it? You are not trying to scare me, are you?"

"Why would I scare you?" Captain Li waved his hands. "I didn't want to report it, but the party group in the team held a meeting this morning and unanimously decided to report the matter. We ask the commune to investigate the matter. If there are problems on our part, we will take the responsibility. If it is someone else's fault, they should apologize to us and admit their mistakes."

"My captain, it's not your fault. It's all my fault. I didn't manage my team members well." Jin Dachui admitted his mistake with an unusually good attitude, cursing in his heart: You bunch of bumpkins are pushing me into the fire pit, and you bastard, I told you not to do it but you insisted on doing it. Oh my god, you're going to kill me.

At the same time, Secretary Yang was answering a call from the secretary of Xiangyang Commune. The other party explained the facts very politely and calmly, and finally asked Secretary Yang to make the decision for the farmers and consider their real situation.

Secretary Yang hung up the phone, his face red as if he had been severely slapped. He called Li Huaide, who had replaced Deputy Director Qu and was still in charge of logistics: "Deputy Director Li, please come to my office."

Secretary Yang lit a cigarette before Li Huaide entered his office and took a few deep breaths to suppress his anger. After seeing Li Huaide, he calmly relayed the words of the Xiangyang Commune Secretary to the other party, but spoke the last two sentences very slowly and with a heavy tone. Then he handed the matter over to the other party to investigate thoroughly, and the Party Group would discuss and resolve it tomorrow.

Li Huaide was very angry after listening to Secretary Yang's retelling. He had just been promoted to deputy factory director, but he was let down in terms of logistics. This guy Jin Dachui really deserved to die!
