Siheyuan, my new life

The competent department of the scrap special steel parts warehouse that originally received the report, namely the Production Planning Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, did not pay enough attention to it. After all, it has been an open secret for a long time that the workers of the steel rolling mill have smuggled some scrap materials out of the factory.

According to the factory's rules and regulations, when a case of theft occurs in the factory, the factory security department must be notified immediately to investigate and solve the case. However, Jin Mancang, director of the production planning department, only asked his subordinates to conduct a check.

Jin Mancang was previously the deputy director of the Production Planning Department. As the former deputy production director of Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, Yang Weimin, and the former director of the Production Planning Department, Man Dajun, were arrested for involvement in the case, the superiors appointed Jin Mancang as the director of the Production Planning Department in order to quickly stabilize the production order of Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

Before the superiors were preparing to appoint Jin Mancang as the director of the Production Planning Department, they had investigated him and found no evidence that he was involved in the criminal activities of Yang Weimin and the former director of the Production Planning Department, Man Dajun.

But what no one knows is that Jin Mancang actually receives a lot of money from Man Hongjun every month. You know, although Man Dajun is the director of the Production Planning Department, it is impossible for him to bypass the deputy director Jin Mancang in many things. But no one knows that the two of them have a close relationship in private. When they were young, they were friends in the same village. One summer, several children secretly went to the small river outside the village to fish. Unexpectedly, Man Dajun slipped into the river. The most unfortunate thing was that when he fell, his head hit a stone slab on the shore that the villagers used to wash clothes, and he fainted.

Originally, these little guys could swim more or less, and they didn't take it seriously when the river was only less than one meter deep. But today, when they saw Man Dajun was unconscious, several children were so scared that they ran back to the village to call adults. Only Jin Mancang jumped directly into the river. It was not until they finally pulled the still unconscious Man Dajun to the shore.

By the time the adults in the village arrived, the Manchu army had already woken up.

Later, the Manchu army followed his parents to move to the old city to live with relatives. At the age of 18, Jin Mancang followed several young men in the village to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area and joined the army.

After the peaceful liberation of Sijiu City, Jin Mancang's unit was ordered to move into the Lou's Steel Rolling Mill and be responsible for the factory's safe production. At that time, he was already a deputy company commander of the unit, and Man Dajun was already the production supervisor of the Lou's Steel Rolling Mill.

At first, neither of them recognized each other. After all, they had not seen each other for more than ten years, and everyone's appearance had changed a lot, especially Jin Mancang, who had a bullet wound on his left cheek. Moreover, no one in the village had a formal name at that time. For example, Jin Mancang was called Jin Shuanzhu at that time, and his current name was given to him by the cadre in charge of registration when he signed up for the army; and Man Dajun's name in the village at that time was Man Gousheng, and he changed his name to his current name when he went to school in the city.

Later, Lou's Steel Rolling Mill implemented a public-private partnership, and Jin Mancang was transferred from the army to work directly in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. At that time, in order to ensure the safe operation of the factory, the superiors arranged military-to-civilian cadres to serve in some key positions. So Jin Mancang was also appointed as the deputy director of the Production Planning Department, and his main task was to supervise the daily work of the department.

As Jin Mancang and Man Dajun spent more time in contact, they found themselves somewhat familiar with each other. After some communication, they confirmed that the other party was their childhood friend. At that time, it was Man Dajun who suggested that the two should not let outsiders know about their relationship. Moreover, in their daily work, the two would occasionally deliberately create some minor frictions. In the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between the director and deputy director of the Production Planning Department was somewhat tense.

It was because of the life-and-death friendship between the two that Jin Mancang was dragged into the water by Man Dajun not long after. However, even the deputy factory director Yang Weimin did not know about it.

After Yang Weimin and Man Dajun were arrested this time, Jin Mancang was also panic-stricken for a while. He was relieved only after all the criminals involved in the case were sentenced according to law. However, he also knew that it was definitely Man Dajun who deliberately took all the crimes and did not confess him.

After a while, Jin Mancang secretly visited Man Dajun's family and got confirmation from Man Dajun's wife. Of course, Man Dajun did not tell his wife the truth directly. He just reminded his wife who came to visit him for the last time before his execution that if she really had any difficulties in the future, she could go to Jin Mancang for help.

From then on, Jin Mancang would secretly give some money and tickets to Man Dajun's family every month.

Although Jin Mancang did not dare to show any abnormality on the surface, he hated Lin Yu from the Security Department from the bottom of his heart.

Since Lin Yu took office, he not only sent his childhood friend to the guillotine, but also cut off his own source of income. You know, Man Dajun would give him at least a thousand yuan in dividends every month, and over the years he had earned thirty or forty thousand yuan in benefits. Now that he suddenly loses this income, how could Jin Mancang be happy?

Therefore, when he reported to Jin Mancang that the new custodian of the scrapped special steel parts warehouse had discovered the theft in the warehouse, Jin Mancang immediately ruled out the idea of ​​notifying the Security Department. In addition, he also wanted to handle it internally as much as possible. After all, the scrapped special steel parts warehouse was under the management of the Production Planning Department. Once the news of a theft got out, it would have a very bad impact on both the Production Planning Department and him, the newly promoted director.

However, after an internal investigation, comrades in the Production Planning Department discovered that the number of stolen and scrapped special steel parts seemed to be quite large, and it did not seem like a small matter of someone sneaking a few in. So they reported to the director Jin Mancang and proposed to notify the Security Department to intervene in the investigation and solve the case.

Until this point, Jin Mancang did not dare to conceal the truth any longer. After all, a large number of scrapped special steel parts had been stolen. If he, as the director, insisted on handling it privately, once it was reported, he would not only bear a leadership responsibility.

Therefore, the case of the theft in the warehouse of scrapped special steel parts was finally reported to the security department of the steel rolling mill.

After receiving the report, Director Qin Ming of the Security Department attached great importance to it and the deputy director in charge, Xiong Qingshan, personally led the security guards of the Public Security Section to the warehouse.

However, after careful questioning, Xiong Qingshan and his comrades from the Public Security Department felt they had no idea where to start. The young man who discovered the problem had only been at work for a few days, and the retired custodian Li Youfu had already returned to his hometown. They could only first check the warehouse for scrapped special steel parts to determine the amount of theft.
