Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

The call came from Sijiu City. A certain department deciphered a radio wave and learned that a large, well-equipped, and deeply hidden group of spies was planning to cause sabotage in Sijiu City.

The city of Beijing is not safe today, and both high-ranking officials and ordinary people know this.

There are countless alleys and courtyards, and you never know where a bad guy with ill intentions is hiding. Doctors in the hospital, teachers in the school, rickshaw pullers on the road, or the black-skinned comrades from the old society around GA, among these people, there may be someone with a code name like "Phoenix", waiting for the opportunity.

The Niangxipi Group has never given up counterattacking, and the Midea Group has never stopped subverting and disintegrating.

Old man Yang looked solemn and immediately asked someone to call back Chen Hong, who had just walked a short distance away.

"Your division's reconnaissance battalion must be alert and take action. The first battalion of the 208th regiment..." Old man Yang made a quick decision and issued an order to Chen Hong.

The 70th Division is the ace unit of the 24th Army. The entire military region is stationed in Chengde, and its main task is to defend the capital.

"Yes, Chief!" Chen Hong accepted the order and felt slightly excited.

The existence of hidden dangers means that they may be used when there is insufficient police force in the city. Using them means making a contribution.

......

The weather is getting warmer day by day, and in some courtyards of the old city, branches of locust trees are peeking out, showing a bit of green.

The cold winter is over and the spring that everyone has been looking forward to has arrived.

Everything comes back to life in spring, which also means that wild vegetables can be obtained for free. Therefore, many people have begun to carry baskets and look for edible wild vegetables all over the city early in the morning.

In a few days, all the wild vegetables in the city will be dug up, and people will have to go out of the city to find them.

Towards evening, Qin Huairu returned to the courtyard, exhausted, carrying a basket.

She walked through the hanging flower gate and subconsciously stopped for a few seconds at the door of Zeng's house, taking a deep breath of the aroma of food coming from Zeng's house.

Everyone in the courtyard was digging wild vegetables. Although the Zeng family had no worries about food and drink, Chen Yumei also went to dig wild vegetables, but the wild vegetables from Chen Yumei's family smelled particularly fragrant.

"It's really exaggerated that so much oil is used to make wild vegetable pancakes..." Qin Huairu sighed inwardly and went home. There were two children, one adult and two children, waiting for dinner at home.

Opposite the Zeng family is Yan Bugui’s house.

The third aunt who saw Qin Huairu stopping behind the window sighed, "Bang Geng's mother dug up a lot of wild vegetables. It seems that she has been digging for a whole day."

"What if they don't dig wild vegetables?" Yan Bugui was cleaning his fishing gear. Spring would soon come and the ice on the waters would melt. He could start fishing again. "Jia Dongxu only earns so little. Although their family has one less person to eat, the ration is also less. Besides, Lao Yi is giving his family less aid now. If they don't dig wild vegetables, they will starve to death."

"That's true!" The third aunt said with a look of watching a show, "I don't know what Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu were thinking. They had to offend Zeng Wangcai. Now the two families can't turn over. I heard from the eldest brother that it's time for Yi Zhonghai to clean the toilet, but the factory may not let him go back to the workshop. Is Zeng Wangcai so powerful that he will let Yi Zhonghai clean the toilet for the rest of his life?

"I wonder if it's because Zhang Xiuzhi is too cruel. I heard from the boss that everyone in the steel mill knows Zhang Xiuzhi's name. They have only been working there for a short time, and both of them are ruthless."

Zhang Xiuzhi has already started working and became a member of the security department of the steel rolling mill.

Because of Zeng Wangcai’s relationship, after Zhang Xiuzhi went in, the relationships between the characters were basically useless.

"It's hard to say. I think something is going to happen!" Yan Bugui put down his fishing rod, pushed up his glasses and said, "The reason why Lao Yi can't go back is probably not Zhang Xiuzhi. It's not a good thing for Zhang Xiuzhi to be famous in the steel mill. She has offended too many people."

"She's from the security department, who could she offend?"

"You don't understand. Zhang Xiuzhi cut off other people's money." Since he had nothing to do, Yan Bugui simply told his wife about his future daughter-in-law who had been so popular across the street. "Zhang Xiuzhi is really capable. She is incredible. After she joined the security department of the steel rolling mill, she worked in the security unit. In less than two months, she arrested more than ten or twenty people. The security department didn't even have enough space to lock them up.

"Those who were caught stealing public property, those who stole a lot and had no background were fine, they were just arrested and sent to jail. But for those who stole less and had a background, guess what happened after they were arrested? They were released and continued to work. In this way, Zhang Xiuzhi cut off other people's sources of income, and she will be retaliated against sooner or later."

The third aunt was stunned by what she said. Suddenly, she heard some noise outside and ran to the window to look. She saw Zhang Xiuzhi pushing a bicycle in a snow-white uniform. However, there was a big stain on the butt of her uniform.

"Hey, Old Yan, look, Zhang Xiuzhi's pants are dirty again. She must have arrested and beaten someone again today..."

That’s right, in most cases, Zhang Xiuzhi’s daily work results can be judged from her clothes.

Zhang Xiuzhi, whose pants were soiled, parked her bicycle at the doorstep, locked it, and walked to the stone at the door and stomped her feet.

She stamped her feet, one reason to get the mud off her feet so as not to dirty the floor, and the other reason to remind her family that she was back.

"Xiuzhi is back, go wash your hands quickly, we're waiting for you to eat!" Chen Yumei heard the noise and came to lift the door curtain.

Zhang Xiuzhi thanked him and went inside. She immediately took out two envelopes from her pocket: "Uncle, aunt, Wangcai wrote to say hello to you. He didn't say anything else, but everything is fine with him. Also, I got my salary and made some extra money during this period..."

This was Zhang Xiuzhi's second salary payment. She did not pay the last salary because it was less than a month ago.

The salary of the security department is different from that of the workers. Zhang Xiuzhi's salary is graded at the lowest level 13, which is yuan a month, not including subsidies. This month, she received a total of yuan, including subsidies for being on duty and rewards.

(Note: I just confirmed that the Security Department and GA are on the same system. I guess the Security Department's salary is based on the 13th-level salary of the GA system at the time. I'm not sure. If anyone knows, I hope you can tell me so that I can have some knowledge.)

Forty-one yuan is definitely a high salary, but compared with the extra income Zhang Xiuzhi mentioned, it is nothing.

During this period, Zeng Youhuo and Xiaohu were busy at the base. They sold part of the supplies they obtained to the troops, stored part of them, and took them to the city to sell to places like the Peking University canteen and purchasing stations.

Zeng Wangcai has initially achieved both improving his status and converting his materials into cash.

"You keep your money for yourself, why give it to me?" Chen Yumei said with a straight face, "Do you think you are an outsider paying for living expenses? I tell you, our family can't learn from the neighbor next door."

Yan Bugui was inadvertently used as a negative example.

"No, Auntie, you misunderstood!" Zhang Xiuzhi suddenly became a little embarrassed and said in a much lower voice, "Wangcai said...he said that you should save this money and repair...repair the house!"

"Repair the house?" Chen Yumei didn't react for a moment.

Zeng Youqian said unhappily: "Take it. How can you be a mother? Don't you keep saying that it would be great if the eldest son got married? If he gets married, he has to build a house..."
