Siheyuan: The opening earthquake of stealing and replacing pillars

The content of the Chinese textbooks in the 70s was very monotonous. Why? They were full of slogans. So if you think about it, it's just a collection of quotations on red paper. It's very boring.

The teacher taught two passages and then asked everyone to recite silently for ten minutes. Because time was limited, everyone valued it. They stared at the textbooks and read aloud word by word.

"...Without such a core, the cause of socialism cannot triumph!"

"... a vibrant and bright organization that should be able to lead the proletariat and the revolutionary masses in the fight against the class enemies!"

"…the words are of the highest level, have the greatest prestige, are the most powerful, and every word is the truth, one word is worth ten thousand words!"

While the students read silently, they listened to the teacher explaining the meaning of the words and sentences. When everyone had mastered the meaning, he turned and went to the next room and began to teach the students in Class B (divided into liberal arts and science courses).

Everyone sitting here is older young people, and quite a few of them are married and have children. Logically, they should be holding their wives and sleeping on the warm beds by now, but now they have to attend classes in the classroom. Many people are really reluctant, so they relax. Some who know each other start whispering, and some simply doze off. For example, the buddy next to He Yuzhu has already started snoring.

In fact, He Yuzhu couldn't concentrate on learning. Firstly, he thought it was too simple. Secondly, the content was too political and boring to learn. However, he had already paid the money and couldn't let it go to waste. So he had no choice but to memorize the text. Thanks to the magic of the Creation Pill, he was able to memorize it by heart after only reading it silently twice.

At this time the teacher came back. He Yuzhu heard the footsteps and quickly kicked his buddy who was sleeping soundly next to him. The guy looked around in confusion and then joined in the reading. He just opened his mouth but didn't make any sound. He was a typical poor student.

Because it was a training class, the progress was relatively fast. The teacher highlighted the key points of the previous two articles and then began to talk about new content. One of them was Tao Yuanming's "Poem on Peach Blossom Spring", "The Ying family has disrupted the order of heaven... I raise my hands high to find my token of love!" The poem and the record are a perfect match, but they are also independent of each other without any sense of repetition. This poem tells the peaceful and tranquil life of the people in Peach Blossom Spring in the poet's tone. The poet, with his deep feelings about the social reality at that time, broke through the narrow world of his own life. Starting from the political darkness of the real society and the suffering of the people's lives, combined with the legendary situation, he portrayed an ideal society of freedom and happiness that is opposite to the real society...

The second piece is "Ode to Coral". He Yuzhu remembered a song with this name, and he happened to know how to sing it. Looking at the words, he couldn't help humming, "A tree of red flowers shines on the blue sea, a ball of fire emerges from the water, the coral tree is red in spring, and the flowers bloom in the wind and waves, ah..."

At 7:30, the teacher asked everyone to rest for 20 minutes. Anyone who was hungry or thirsty could take this time to eat something and drink some water to replenish their energy. He Yuzhu brought some biscuits. Although he was not hungry, everyone was eating, so he couldn't just stand by and watch.

At this time, a voice came from beside me.

"Thank you for what I did just now. If it weren't for you, I would have been embarrassed in the first class today!" The buddy next to him smiled at He Yuzhu.

"It's okay!" He Yuzhu said softly. It was obvious that this guy was not an ordinary person. He was wearing a sea-blue jacket, which seemed to be the symbol of a certain compound.

"My name is Wu Haiyang, what's your name?"

"He Yuzhu!"

Wu Haiyang took out a box of canned meat (special supply), an apple, and two pancakes from his schoolbag. When He Yuzhu saw them, he immediately felt that the biscuits in his hand were not fragrant anymore.

"Hey, my wife prepared this. Do you want to try it?" Wu Haiyang was very enthusiastic.

"This is not good!" Although he said it was not good, He Yuzhu's hands were very honest.

Of course, he didn't eat other people's food for free, so he took out the biscuits and shared them with Wu Haiyang. Compared together, they had the best meals in the whole classroom, and others looked at them with envy, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't swallow the steamed buns and pickles.

Through chatting, I learned that Wu Haiyang was from the Navy compound, 27 years old this year, and had just gotten married. He was the youngest in the family, and his two elder brothers were serving in the Northwest Frontier Army. Originally, the old man in the family wanted to send him to the army, but this guy said he would not do anything because he was used to being lazy. Throwing him to the army would be more painful than killing him.

As for why Wu Haiyang wanted to attend the training class, he didn't say, and He Yuzhu didn't ask. They only knew that his target was the Naval College of Engineering, so they could use it to get some information. After all, the Naval College of Engineering was separated from the National Defense University. It was the highest institution of learning in the Military Engineering University at that time, and it cultivated either military or political talents, so it had a certain degree of confidentiality.

After the break, the course continued. Mathematics and politics were taught in the second half of the day by the same teacher. Maybe all politics teachers were like this. His expression was quite serious. He Yuzhu did not dare to be careless and took notes seriously. Examinations in this era all have a certain direction. If you are not serious, you may make a mistake, and then the gain will outweigh the loss.

Finally, they recited the regulations again. The sound of loud reading could be heard everywhere. Wu Haiyang was already panting heavily at this time, and He Yuzhu also wanted to doze off.

After finally making it to nine o'clock, it was time to go home from school. Everyone was more energetic.

"Brother He, where do you live? I'll give you a ride!" Wu Haiyang said enthusiastically.

"Haha, I'm in North City and you're in West City, we're not on the same route!"

"Okay, I'll be leaving first!"

He Yuzhu thought Wu Haiyang came here on a bicycle, but he got into a jeep as soon as he left the school gate. He was instantly jealous. Damn, it's really frustrating to compare yourself with others!

When he got home, Zhu Lin had already gone to bed. After He Yuzhu washed up quietly, he quickly got into bed, hugged her hot body, and felt very satisfied.

According to his habit before sleeping, he first sent his consciousness into the space. Today the mall finally had some transactions. Seven bottles of Hibiscus Cream were sold, with a value of 1400 US dollars, and 300 orders of Shenzao Pills were sold, with a value of 3000 US dollars. Converted into secret scrolls, it is 1100 talismans. At this rate, the store can be upgraded in a few days!

Some people worry that the exchange rate is too unfair. In fact, the system is still very fair, because everything purchased in the mall is at cost price, and there are no miscellaneous taxes. For example, for an imported TV, the wholesale price doubles, the sales price doubles, and the export price doubles again based on the cost price. How much does it cost?

But in the mall, it only costs 130 talismans, isn't it cheap? Of course, this is the price after the comprehensive exchange rate, as for chicken, duck, fish and meat, it goes without saying. Look, He Yuzhu only spent two talismans to buy ten kilograms of Wagyu beef, isn't it a good deal?

In fact, the best thing is that you don’t need a ticket to buy things in the mall. You have to know that this is still the planned economy era. Without a ticket, no matter how much money you have, it’s useless. Of course, you can also buy high-priced things, but in this way, the price will not only double, but even several times. It’s not cost-effective!

He Yuzhu used to buy expensive seafood, but now he feels that it is not worth it. But there is nothing he can do because he has no tickets. Now, with the way to make money in the mall, he does not have to worry anymore.

Now the monthly sign-in reward is about 3,000 to 4,000 yuan, and has accumulated more than 20,000 yuan. Therefore, He Yuzhu is not short of cash. The salary alone is enough for living expenses, not to mention the existence of the mall, which is a killer. He has now truly achieved financial freedom...

The next morning, He Yuzhu went to work as usual. As soon as he arrived at the factory, Lao Qian came to complain.

"You don't know, the purchasing department has been in chaos these days, with a major reshuffle from top to bottom. Not to mention the people far away, just the five people in our cafeteria's external purchasing department have been replaced by four!"

He Yuzhu comforted him: "A new official has three fires to start with. He has to make some changes wherever he goes. It will be fine after the reform is over!"

"I understand the reason!" Old Qian sighed, "I'm mainly worried that Peng Hai can't stand it. He said that the newcomers always bully him, and he wanted to quit several times!"

Peng Hai, a retired veteran, was recruited from the meat processing factory by Lao Qian with great effort. He is mainly responsible for the supply of meat products to the canteen, which is a very lucrative business. Fortunately, Peng Hai has very good discipline and does not fatten himself up by eating on his own. This is exactly why He Yuzhu values ​​him.

"So, the newcomers have already formed a group?" He Yuzhu frowned.

"There are signs of this!" Old Qian told the truth. He really had no way to deal with those people and could only place his hope on He Yuzhu.

"You just stood up for Peng Hai?"

Without even thinking, Lao Qian said, "It's ok for these people not to work hard, but they also bully their colleagues. I really can't stand it!"

"Haha, it's human nature!" He Yuzhu smiled and continued, "How is Peng Hai doing at work?"

"He is very low-key and works very hard, but his legs and feet are a little inconvenient, as you know. It is also because of this that he is often ridiculed. Although he didn't say anything, I know he must be very upset!"

Isn't it sad that the wounds left on the battlefield were made fun of? No wonder Lao Qian couldn't stand it.

"Is he in the factory today?"

"exist!"

"Call him over here, I want to talk to him!"

"Fine!"

Lao Qian went out, and after a while, he brought Peng Hai in. Peng Hai was the kind of man who was ruthless and didn't talk much. He Yuzhu nodded silently. He liked this kind of tough guy.

"Peng Hai, come and sit down!" He Yuzhu poured a cup of tea himself.

"Director, you are too polite!" Peng Hai declined hurriedly.

"We are all family, so don't be polite to me!" He Yuzhu pushed Peng Hai down on the chair and said seriously, "I heard that you are often laughed at in class, why don't you come and tell me?"

Peng Hai smiled bitterly and said, "It's just a joke, I don't take it seriously!"

He Yuzhu was unhappy when he heard this: "What a joke! If they dare to laugh at my brothers, then they are laughing at me. So, from today on, you are the squad leader. If anyone dares to laugh at you again, I will beat him up!"

Peng Hai was dumbfounded, and Lao Qian was also confused. What was going on?

"Director, this is inappropriate!"

He Yuzhu said domineeringly: "Your work performance is obvious to all. Logically, you should have been promoted long ago. If anyone is not convinced, let him come to me!"

"I, I," Peng Hai was so excited that he stuttered.

"Okay, we're all men, just be honest, are you going to do it or not?"

"I'll do it!"

Peng Hai is also a decisive person. He doesn't know why He Yuzhu wants to promote him, but being a squad leader comes with a subsidy of five yuan. Even though it's only five yuan, it will undoubtedly be of great help to their family, because there is a patient at home and he needs the money so much.

"Good job, that's what a real man should do!" He Yuzhu praised: "Work hard, there will be positions of section chief and director waiting for you in the future, I believe you can do it!"

To win someone over, you can't just rely on empty talk, you have to give them benefits and paint a rosy picture for them, otherwise who would work for you?

The corner of Lao Qian's mouth twitched and he felt a chill on his butt. His official hat was in danger!

"Thank you for your trust. I will work hard and never let you down!" Peng Hai walked away with an excited look on his face.

After Peng Hai left, Old Qian asked He Yuzhu, "Are you really going to let this guy be the squad leader? Will the new guys be convinced?"

He Yuzhu chuckled and said, "So what if you're not convinced? I bet no one dares to come to me to complain!"

"Why?" Old Qian asked in confusion.

"Don't you want to know who those people are related to? Haha, you will know in two days!"

Damn, you are using Peng Hai as a pawn!

Enough!

As He Yuzhu expected, within two days, a number of people came to talk to him. The first was the newly appointed external procurement director Hu Fengxiang. This person's background was unknown. All we knew was that he was transferred from another unit. He had an ordinary appearance, always smiled when he spoke, and did things in a businesslike manner. The more such a person is, the more vigilant one should be. This was He Yuzhu's evaluation of him.

In addition to Hu Fengxiang, there was also Director Gao from the factory office and Deputy Director Liu from the labor union. He Yuzhu had never expected to attract so many bigwigs. He could only sigh that the rats who know how to steal oil always hide the deepest!

He was trying to please him on the surface, but when he returned to the office he called Peng Hai over and praised him highly, saying he had done a good job and hoped that he would keep up the good work. Peng Hai then left with a look of gratitude.

It was not until this moment that He Yuzhu saw desire in Peng Hai's eyes, the desire for power. He probably has already experienced what it feels like to be a leader. Hehe, the best is yet to come!

Sure enough, three days later, Peng Hai beat up a colleague. When Lao Qian found out, he quickly reported it to He Yuzhu, but He Yuzhu pretended not to hear anything and continued to be busy with his own things, not caring at all.

A few days passed like this, and the conflicts over the canteen's purchases for small classes became more and more serious, to the point where someone couldn't stand it and reported it directly to the office of the future factory director. He Yuzhu knew he couldn't escape it, so he had to bite the bullet and take the criticism. Whenever they met, they couldn't help but quarrel. The husband said he was right, and the mother said she was right!

Finally, the factory manager was really fed up with what he heard, so he decided to punish all the employees 50 percent of the time. Two of the purchasing agents were laid off, and the remaining two were fined one month's salary. As for Peng Hai, the squad leader was directly dismissed, but since he was a veteran (who had made meritorious services), he was not given financial punishment. He was asked to make meritorious services while serving his sentence and take over the business that had caused the two people to be laid off. At this point, the conflict was finally over.

It's always a good deal!

He Yuzhu expressed his satisfaction and thought to himself, sometimes you have to flex your muscles, otherwise people will treat you as a soft persimmon.
