Chapter 240 Zhang Yuan's Plan

Zhang Yuan was on duty at night, but he went to the security department of the steel rolling mill for something. The security guard at the door had already been informed and asked Zhang Yuan to go directly to the security department, where Chief Liu was waiting for Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan walked into the security room and saw Chief Liu and two team members roasting sweet potatoes, with a fragrant smell.

"You're here!" Section Chief Liu looked up and saw Zhang Yuan, and quickly greeted him with a smile, "You're here quite early. I'm here too, come over and eat with me."

Zhang Yuan walked over and sat next to Section Chief Liu. A team member gave up his seat and asked Zhang Yuan to sit down, while he went to the other side to move a chair.

"You guys are living a good life." Zhang Yuan said with a smile as he looked at the roasted sweet potatoes in their hands.

"Haha, improve your life occasionally." Section Chief Liu smiled and handed Zhang Yuan a roasted sweet potato.

Zhang Yuan took the sweet potato, took a bite, and found it sweet and delicious.

"By the way, are you really determined to do this?" Chief Liu suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid that your brother-in-law will come after you when he finds out? He's famous for his violent temper."

Zhang Yuan was silent for a while, then said, "I've thought about it. If he was sober, he wouldn't have been cheated like this. My wife searched her brother's house yesterday, but guess what? She couldn't find a penny. It was cleaner than a rat's nest."

"Hiss! So miserable?" Section Chief Liu said in surprise.

"Yes, so I can't just watch him being cheated of all his savings. I have to stop him." Zhang Yuan said firmly.

Section Chief Liu nodded, showing his understanding. "Okay, since you have made your decision, we won't say anything. As long as it doesn't violate the regulations, it's fine."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Zhang Yuan looked at Section Chief Liu with gratitude.

"But I really don't believe it. I guess you are kidding. Think about it, Sha Zhu is a chef. He doesn't need to spend money on food and housing. He lives in his own house and doesn't have to pay rent. Plus, he earns 37.5 yuan a month. How can he not save money? Doesn't he want to get married?" Chief Liu said doubtfully. The team members next to him also felt strange and echoed: "Yes, this is a bit unreasonable! Logically, someone like Sha Zhu should have saved a lot of money. Not to mention that when He Daqing was here, he almost ate at the company. Even if he occasionally treated people or had a good meal, he could save at least 10 yuan a month. It's impossible for him to be cleaner than his face."

Zhang Yuan looked at everyone's puzzled faces, took a deep breath, and patiently explained: "In fact, Sha Zhu is a good person. He is kind-hearted and willing to help others, but sometimes, this kindness is used in the wrong place, and he may even sacrifice his own interests to help others. For example, Qin Huairu, her family is really poor, with many children, and they often don't have enough food. So Qin Huairu always takes advantage of Sha Zhu's kindness and tricks him into giving the food he brought back to them. What's more, Qin Huairu always uses the fact that her own children are malnourished to encourage Sha Zhu to steal things."

At this point, Zhang Yuan frowned and continued, "Besides, there is an old lady in the courtyard. We all call her the deaf old lady. She is old and not in good health, so Sha Zhu often goes to take care of her. In this way, Sha Zhu spends all his time and energy on these people, and his own life naturally becomes more difficult. But think about it, is it really right for him to do this? Although he is kind-hearted, he has some problems with his brain. He doesn't know how to distinguish between those who are really in trouble and those who need help. He only knows how to give blindly, but he doesn't know that this kind of help is only temporary and cannot solve their fundamental problems. He can help for a while, but can he help for a lifetime?"

Zhang Yuan paused, and after looking at everyone, he continued, "Let's not talk about others first, let's talk about the deaf old lady. She is a five-guarantee household! What is a five-guarantee household? It means guaranteed food, housing, clothing, medical care, and burial. All these expenses are borne by the state. In addition, Yi Zhonghai, a great man, comes to support her, will she still have difficulties? And Qin Huairu, she always cries that her family is poor, but what is the reality? She has to support three children and an old man, which is indeed not easy, but has she tried to change this situation? No! Not only is she unwilling to work hard, but she often slacks off, pretending to be pitiful and innocent, deceiving everyone's sympathy. And her mother-in-law is only in her fifties, but she has lived a life of retirement early. Every day, she stretches out her hands for clothes and opens her mouth for food. She either chats with the old ladies in the yard or spreads gossips. Do you think such a family is really worth our help?"

Listening to Zhang Yuan's words, everyone nodded in agreement. At this time, someone whispered: "It turns out that Sha Zhu is so kind, it's really rare!" Another person sighed: "Alas, it's a pity that Sha Zhu is too confused. If he could be a little smarter, he wouldn't have ended up like this."

"So I plan to give him strong medicine today to wake him up. He can't be so confused anymore. Otherwise, if he doesn't wake up on his own, he will suffer in the future." Zhang Yuan said seriously.

"Well, every family has its own problems." Section Chief Liu shook his head.

"I just hope Shazhu can turn back in time." Zhang Yuan said.

"Okay, let's start now." Section Chief Liu winked at the team members.

The team member nodded knowingly, then went out with another companion. Not long after, Sha Zhu was brought in.

After being locked up for two days, Sha Zhu looked dazed, his eyes were bloodshot, he had deep dark circles under his eyes, his clothes smelled sour, his hair was greasy and stuck together, he had completely lost his former charm.

After a long while, Sha Zhu finally came back to his senses. When he saw Zhang Yuan sitting in front of him, his eyes suddenly lit up. But because his mouth was stuffed with a piece of rag, he couldn't speak at all. He could only twist his body and try to express his meaning with body language, hoping that Zhang Yuan could help him plead for mercy as soon as possible and rescue him from this hellhole.

"Brother-in-law, don't be anxious. I came here today just for your matter. However, I can't untie you for now. I will untie the ropes for you after you listen to the play. I have to inconvenience you for a while." Zhang Yuan walked to Sha Zhu, helped him up, let him sit on the chair, and comforted him softly.

"Woo woo!" Sha Zhu widened his eyes, his eyes full of confusion and puzzlement, as if he wanted to ask Zhang Yuan what on earth was going on and why he was so mysterious. But he quickly reacted and realized that Zhang Yuan came to save him. He immediately felt at ease and stopped struggling, sitting down quietly.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise from the next room, and someone could be heard talking faintly. It turned out that the security department had begun to interrogate Qin Huairu. Their voices were clearly audible, as if they were very close.
