Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars

Chapter 61 Lao Li wants to be the team leader

In the evening, Li Guohua rode his bike and took Zhou Dahu back to the courtyard.

Since Zhou Dahu had not been home for a long time and said he missed his grandmother and younger brother, Li Guohua planned to give him a day off. The same would apply to other people on the farm, but they would take turns.

As soon as he returned home, his eldest brother Li Guoliang excitedly pulled him into the inner room.

"Guohua, I have thought of an easy purchasing method!" Li Guohua seemed a little excited, as if it was some great thing.

"What method?" Li Guohua was a little curious. Could it be that his elder brother had made the acquaintance of some important person, or the leader of some farm or ranch?

At this time, many farms were full of labor reforms. They were planting for a long time and could keep some of the surplus. The rest were ranches, mainly in the north of Beijing. However, they were planned for special supply, and except for some close friends, they should not be able to get it.

"The black market. Don't people in our courtyard often go to the black market to buy food? We can go there too! Someone told me that you can see meat on the black market every day!" Li Guoliang said excitedly.

"No, big brother! We are not forced to do anything else. Who would go to the black market to buy? Who told you this?"

Li Guohua smelled something different. Now that his eldest brother had the help of his father and he occasionally contributed money, he should not have any purchasing pressure and would not say this on his own initiative.

"Xu Dakun from our factory told me. He also told me that it is much cheaper than the market price. This way we can make a little profit from the difference!"

"Brother, you think too much. You don't have much pressure on purchasing, so why would others tell you this?" Li Guohua reminded.

If the idea was thought of by the eldest brother himself, then there is no problem. But if it was suggested by someone else, then the purpose is too strong.

"You mean, someone is plotting against me through Xu Dakun?" Li Guoliang reacted immediately. If the black market was exposed and he was arrested, he would lose his job.

"Well, it's most likely Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai. Apart from them, we haven't offended anyone else in the entire courtyard!" Li Guohua said after thinking for a while.

It’s not that Yi Zhonghai hasn’t done good things, it’s just that he does things with too strong a purpose and is very selfish.

"I'll tell my parents!" Li Guoliang's first reaction was to tell Li Chuwu and Chen Lan to be careful of Yi Zhonghai.

"No, instead of the whole family worrying about this matter, why don't we handle it ourselves!" Li Guohua said after thinking for a while.

Everyone knows that there is a discord between my family and them, but my parents are too kind and their methods are too decent, but they cannot control anyone.

"Guohua, you decide what to do. I'll listen to you!"

As for Li Guoliang, he can hit people, but if he wants to think about it, it might be a little bit worse.

"So, from now on, I will be responsible for your procurement of materials. After you deliver the purchases to the steel mill every day, you can just keep an eye on Sha Zhu in the middle courtyard.

Don't go there yourself, lest you get caught. It's better to spend some money to hire a few people to help you keep an eye on him and report to you if anything happens. When he leaves with his deaf wife, you can... "

It is almost the end of the month and we will be able to receive food coupons soon. The deaf lady has a habit of eating as much as possible from Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu. She will save her food coupons and sell them to others at the end of the month so that she can save some money for retirement.

Li Guohua thought of a very clever idea, which was to strike the snake at its most vulnerable part and get rid of the deaf old lady who was taking advantage of her age first.

At least make her discredited first, so that she has no reputation in the yard and the streets, and then see if she dares to smash other people's glass or hit people with a stick again.

Without this old lady as a troublemaker, what would happen if we faced Yi Zhonghai head-on? We wouldn't have to give him any face at that time.

"Okay, I know what to do!" Li Guoliang said with a grin.

In the past, Li's father and mother had stopped him, so he would be patient when encountering problems. His family had also donated money to the old lady, but he did not receive any gratitude. Now, after hearing Li Guohua's solution, he also felt very relieved.

During dinner in the evening, Lao Li mentioned one thing, that is, their stationmaster wanted to give him more responsibilities and make him the team leader.

However, this means he won't be able to go out to the countryside. Although his salary has increased, his overall income has decreased. He wants to ask his two sons for their opinions.

"Dad, if you want to be the team leader, you can be the team leader. If you don't want to be the team leader, you don't have to be the team leader. We don't lack food at home now!" Li Chahua said indifferently while concentrating on the dumplings in the bowl.

Dumplings have thin skin and large fillings. People outside cannot smell the aroma of the meat, but you can eat one without making a sound. It is the best supplementary food for those living in a courtyard house.

"Just eat your food. Your dad is asking about your older brother, not a little girl like you!" Chen Lan said unhappily.

"Dad, what do you think?" Li Guoliang asked seriously.

"Whatever I want, I can do it!"

Lao Chuwu said that he didn't know either, so he asked you.

"Dad, I suggest you be the team leader. I'll get you two more rabbits tomorrow. You can find time to give them to your stationmaster!" Li Guohua said after thinking for a while.

"Why should I give him a gift? I personally brought him up!" Li Chuwu said unconvinced.

The current stationmaster of their garbage station used to be his apprentice and usually respected him very much, which allowed him to live very freely in the station.

"Dad, now that my two brothers have grown up and can earn a living, the pressure at home is not that great. I think it's better for you to be the team leader, so that you can have more free time. You will have to help me and my eldest brother take care of our grandchildren in the future. You can't carry the burden and take your grandchildren to the countryside to collect rags, right?"

Li Chuwu is now the oldest and most experienced person working at the station. The reason he didn't climb up in the past was not because he didn't understand the ways of the world, but because he wanted to support his family.

Now that he has this opportunity, of course he cannot miss it. When the webmaster is promoted, he will work hard and maybe he can become a webmaster himself.

"Dad, Guohua's meaning is what I mean. I think you need to take a good rest!"

Old Li listened in silence for a while. He had been the head of the family for decades and had always been admired by his children. But suddenly he had to take a back seat at home. He felt a little lost.

"Old Li, you'd better listen to your two children. Don't be so stubborn and make yourself suffer!" Chen Lan patted Li Chuwu and said with a smile.

Li Chuwu has been a strong man all his life, otherwise he would not be allowed to stay at home to take care of the children. He worked hard outside alone and refused promotions many times for the sake of his family.

"I'm old! Okay, I'll listen to you! But you two brats should find a partner quickly, otherwise where will you have grandchildren?" Li Chuwu agreed with a sigh, but immediately started to criticize the two.

Ever since Li Guohua's salary surpassed his, he knew that this day was not far away, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. However, he still had an income and could support his two sons, so he was not a useless person.

"Dad, you are not old yet. You still have to make money to support my studies and raise me up!" Li Chahua heard Li Chuwu say that he was old, and immediately followed suit.

"Well, I'm not old, I'm not old, I still have an old daughter to take care of!"

Li Chuwu quickly coaxed his daughter, making the whole family laugh.
