Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

The city of Sijiu is not peaceful at the moment. Too many things have happened after the storm, and many positions have been left behind by the people who were cleared out, which need to be filled one by one.

In this case, most people have no problem.

Zhao Weimin is one of these people. How can we describe his character? He is upright yet sophisticated and cautious, which made him very low-key in the past few years. He did not stand out and was not disciplined.

To put it bluntly, it is more moderate.

"Have you passed? I have just taken over the job and I don't understand many things yet." Zhao Weimin did not express his opinion.

"Well, there should be relevant comrades going to the post and telecommunications department to preside over the work." Yang Yongan said, "This matter is no secret. The relevant leaders attach great importance to this matter and have decided to give Huayao certain privileges. In general, they agree with Zeng Wangcai's proposal that Huayao and relevant departments jointly establish a new communication system, with Huayao as the main body and relevant departments as the auxiliary."

This is a strong signal that the situation may be changing.

"This has nothing to do with our Ministry of Transport..."

"No, it has something to do with you." Yang Yongan said earnestly, "Your eldest son works in the Post and Telecommunications Department, and your youngest son is like this now. If something happens, will your eldest son feel resentful when he cooperates with Huayao in the back?"

"What about this?" Zhao Weimin said with a wry smile, "Zhao Yilin and Zhao Yihua have always had a good relationship. If it's really like what you said, it might really happen in the future. To be honest, Zhao Yihua's current condition has something to do with me. I didn't discipline him enough. He hasn't been back for several years. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that he did such a thing in Baotou..."

Yang Yongan glanced at Liu Yong beside him, knowing that Zhao Weimin was giving face to both of them, and began to talk about the child.

But what Zhao Weimin said was not clear about the child's condition, and it was difficult for the two of them to tell whether it was true or false.

People of their generation have many children, and there are not many people like Yang Yongan who have as few children surviving. Many people's children are like seeds, scattered across the beautiful rivers and mountains of the motherland, and they rarely reunite once a year.

In other words, the situation Zhao Weimin described does exist and is not uncommon.

"I suggest that you quickly get Yihua back." Yang Yongan continued, "Currently Zeng Wangcai is on his way to Baotou. Zeng Wangcai has a strange and changeable temper. He is very kind to his own people, but he is always merciless to his enemies."

"What? He dares to beat Yihua to death?" Zhao Weimin glared, and he was also a little angry.

"That's not the case..." Yang Yongan said, "But if it gets out of hand, it will be embarrassing. Now the leaders value Zeng Wangcai and are willing to give him certain privileges. After all, he is related to the implementation of many important projects."

This is a friendly reminder, because of the three projects Zeng Wangcai currently has on hand, only the garment factory is public, while Huayao and the automobile factory are all confidential and only a very small number of people know about them.

If it weren't for their relationship with Zeng Wangcai and their positions, Yang Yongan and Liu Yong would not have known about it.

Zhao Weimin understood, thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "I'll ask our eldest brother to go to Baotou. Zhao Yihua won't listen to me, but he should listen to Zhao Yilin."

"That would be the best. Nothing would go wrong."

"Well, thank you for the trip."

"It's okay, we are all old comrades..."

The three people reached a consensus on Zhao Yihua's matter. Yang Yongan and Liu Yong did this out of consideration for Zeng Wangcai. They did not want Zeng Wangcai to make a big deal out of it and make enemies in the end.

But they didn't know, and Zhao Weimin didn't know either, that what Zhao Yihua did to Huang Hai and his wife had gone beyond the point of being excessive.

Of course, Zhao Yihua himself would not say anything, and after Zeng Wangcai and Huang Liang learned about it, they decided not to say anything either, because it was useless to say anything, and the final result would most likely be that the board against Zhao Yihua would be raised high and then gently dropped.

This is a result that Zeng Wangcai and Huang Liang do not want to see.

So, let’s just leave it at that and see who has better means.

Zhao Weimin returned to his new home in the compound after get off work that day. There were many children in his family, but only the eldest child, Zhao Yilin, lived with him. The other children were not around and each had his own life.

Zhao Yilin is already in his forties, married, and has five children, so the Zhao family’s house is very lively.

One or two in the first generation, several in the second generation, and by the third generation... haha, the number of people is not as simple as doubling. This is a bit like the royal breeding in ancient times.

In a few years, the issue of childbirth among ordinary people will be regulated, and each family can have one child, no matter how many generations it passes on... Tsk tsk tsk tsk, although the world is big, it is just a chess game.

In the study, Zhao Weimin took off his glasses and said to his eldest son Zhao Yilin, "Yilin, is your department going to take the lead in establishing a company with foreign capital?"

"I don't know. I haven't heard of it." Zhao Yilin concentrated on making tea and shook his head. "Where did you hear that?"

He is not the head of the department, just a director, but a director in his forties is already very impressive, comparable to the coking generals of those days.

"No matter where you heard it from, pay attention to this after you come back from Baotou." Zhao Weimin still had some concerns and did not tell the whole story. He reminded, "You have to pay attention to this matter. Your department is taking the lead and mainly focusing on foreign investment. The leaders attach great importance to it."

"Mainly foreign-funded?" Zhao Yilin was slightly surprised. "This is a first. Who has such great ability to obtain such a privilege?"

"Have you heard of Zeng Wangcai?"

"Zeng Wangcai?" Zhao Yilin shook his head. "No, which old comrade's family?"

In their eyes, those who can obtain privileges are the descendants of a certain generation.

However, Zhao Yilin could not remember which elder Zeng family had a descendant named Zeng Wangcai. If he was not famous, he would definitely not get this privilege. But if he was famous, there was no reason for him not to know about it.

"It was started by the people." Zhao Weimin, who had already inquired about Zeng Wangcai in the afternoon, said, "Here is some information about Zeng Wangcai. It may not be comprehensive. You can learn about it first and read it on the way. Now you should set off to Baotou and bring the youngest back."

"Bring Yihua back? What for?"

"Yihua may have offended Zeng Wangcai. If you are asked to go, you should go as soon as possible. It will be inconvenient if you are late. Zeng Wangcai is on his way to Baotou now. Because of the distance, you will be one step faster than him."

"That's...okay!"

Zhao Yilin set out that night. Sijiucheng was much closer to Baotou, so he arrived the next morning.

After arriving, Zhao Yilin went directly to the county where Zhao Yihua was and revealed his identity.

My goodness! The mayor is here. It’s like an earthquake. The county town, which didn’t get the news, was almost shaken down.

Zhao Yilin exercised some privileges and, in order to facilitate things, asked the county armed forces department for a team of people to lead the way and head straight to the educated youth site where Zhao Yihua was sent.
