Siheyuan: Heavy Industry Revitalizes the Country

Ba Ji Mutton Soup Restaurant.

"When are you going to have your holiday?"

Fang Xiang and Wei Shengli stayed in a small private room, enjoying the hot pot hot pot meals.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year was just a few days away, Fang planned to visit Wei Shengli's home.

Normally, everyone goes there after the New Year.

But Fang Xiang felt that Mr. Wei would probably be very busy after the New Year.

Whether it is welcoming or seeing off, there are a lot of relationships to maintain.

It would be better for me to go there early to avoid causing trouble to others.

"You're overthinking it. Police officers don't get any holidays during festivals.

You are busy, we are idle; you are idle, we are busy. "

Wei Shengli's mouth was filled with mutton, but his expression was somewhat dissatisfied.

“That’s true…

Well, in a few days, I'll visit your house as a way of wishing you a happy new year in advance.

After the New Year, your father must be busy, so I won’t disturb him.

We'll meet again sometime."

Fang Xiang was not willing to be left behind and grabbed the last piece of mutton from the pot.

“Okay, we’ll talk about it then.

By the way, I found another house for you.

Do you want to go take a look while you have nothing to do?"

Seeing that there was no meat left in the pot, Wei Shengli immediately picked up the plate full of mutton and put it into the pot.

"Oh? What's the situation with the house this time?"

While the meat was cooking, Fang Xiang took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

“It’s also in Nanluoguxiang, not far from where you live.

But this yard is a bit too small."

Wei Shengli looked at the meat in the pot, but the soup had not boiled yet, so he could only wait.

"It's okay, Xiao. Tell me the details."

Fang Xiang frowned and decided to listen first.

"That courtyard is in Maoer Hutong, next to the Prince's Mansion.

There are currently two families living in the first floor.

One family is the owner of the house and lives in the main house, and the other family occupies the east wing.

The West Wing and the Flip Room were rented out to the Drama Academy as temporary student dormitories.”

Wei Shengli stopped here, not because the mutton was cooked.

Instead, Wei Shengli gave Fang Xiang some time to digest the situation.

"So what's the situation with this householder and the other household?"

Fang Xiang hesitated for a moment. What he wanted was a house with a private courtyard where he could live alone.

Subconsciously, I wanted to refuse, but looking at Wei Shengli's expression, it seemed that he had something else to say, so I simply waited for him to finish.

"The owner of the household is a veteran engineer from a crane factory, and this is part of the Third Front construction.

I was assigned to the southwest, so I don’t plan to keep this house.

The family living in the east wing is a teacher from the drama academy next door. They are a family of three with a child.

The West Wing and the Flip Room are all filled with students from the Academy of Drama.

At first I didn’t want to tell you, after all, there are too many people living here.

But I went to take a look yesterday."

When Wei Shengli said this, he deliberately paused and took a bite of mutton.

Then there was something unusual in the look in Fang Xiang's eyes.

"What do you mean?"

Fang Xiang naturally saw Wei Shengli's eyes and became curious.

"They are all pretty female students~~"

Wei Shengli chewed the mutton in his mouth slowly and swallowed it.

Then he revealed a lewd expression and said something that whetted Fang Xiang's appetite.

"Hey! You!"

Fang Xiang immediately became angry.

He immediately picked up the chopsticks and started snatching the meat from Wei Shengli.

"How about it, do you want to go and have a look?"

Wei Shengli seemed to be full. He looked at Fang Xiang picking up some meat and picked up the teacup to sip his tea.

"You want to hurt me, don't you?

Don't you know what Shuying's temper is like?"

Fang Xiang shook his head and thought of Liu Shuying.

If the relationship is not confirmed, this yard is not out of the question.

But since I already have a girlfriend, I naturally have to avoid some troublesome things that may happen to me.

Especially since the yard is full of female students, you see them every day.

It's inevitable that some trouble will arise, so it's better to just refuse it.

"Well, anyway, this yard will only last until next summer at best.

By then the engineer will have left. If you regret it, tell me anytime."

Wei Shengli stopped joking, but he didn't say anything final.

"What did you say when you saw that yard before?"

Fang Xiang was too lazy to argue with him and mentioned the courtyard he had seen before.

In any case, the yard still meets Fang Xiang's requirements.

"You know what, I actually found out that the yard has not been transferred yet.

But that Liu Si is still nowhere to be found, alive or dead.

I think this matter is very strange."

Wei Shengli saw Fang Xiang finished the whole plate of meat by himself, so he started putting another plate of meat into the pot.

"Don't tell me this, you police officers are good at this kind of thing.

I'm just waiting to see when the house can be sold to me."

After hearing this, Fang lost interest and was too lazy to ask.

Wouldn't it be better to just wait to take over and pay the transfer fee?

"Then you'll have to wait. You might even have to prepare for the confiscation of this house."

Wei Shengli shook his head and said something discouraging.

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you to help me continue looking for a house."

Fang Xiang sighed and decided not to ask any more questions.

Soon, the two finished their lunch.

Fang Xiang followed Wei Shengli back to Jiaodaokou Police Station and called Professor Xu's office.

After confirming that the professor would be there in the afternoon, I said goodbye to Wei Shengli and rode my bike to Shuimu.

When I was almost at school, I took out the tea, cigarettes and Maotai that I had prepared in the space while no one was around.

I took them all out and hung them on the handlebars.

"Professor, I'm here to see you."

When he arrived at school, Fang Xiang didn't even knock on the door, but went straight into the office carrying his things.

"It's already holiday, why are you here again?"

Professor Xu put down the drawing in his hand, took off his glasses, and looked at Fang Xiang curiously.

“It’s almost New Year’s Day.

I thought I would not be able to find you by then because you are old, so I came here in advance to wish you a happy new year.

This is just a small token of my appreciation, please don’t despise it.”

As Fang Xiang spoke, he placed the tea, cigarettes and alcohol in his hand on the table.

“Hey, kid, I just gave you a bonus of a few hundred dollars.

That's what you do, right? Buy something so expensive!"

When Professor Xu saw it, he was quite amused.

"Not all of them are yours. This one is for Senior Brother Qin, and this one is for Senior Brother Cao."

Fang Xiang had a total of four copies in his hand, two of which were from Professor Xu, and the other two were from his two senior brothers.

"You have this money, why don't you keep it for yourself?

How come you are following this bad habit and giving gifts even though you haven't even started working yet?"

Professor Xu was somewhat happy and somewhat angry.

The happy thing is that Fang Xiang knows that this kid is thinking about him.

What makes me angry is that I spent so much money to buy such an expensive gift.

"Oh, if it weren't for the professor's keen eye for identifying pearls.

I have been given such a great opportunity, but I am still studying hard.

These are just a small token of my appreciation, please don’t despise me.”

Fang Xiang laughed happily and spoke the truth.

Although I had decided to curry favor with someone from the beginning.

But Professor Xu's thigh was not only thick, but also extremely good to him.

As a human being, you should naturally know how to be grateful.

"This one is for you, Senior Brother, and the other one is for Senior Brother Cao.

I have something else to do, so please help me pass it on to Brother Cao.

Professor, I see you are still busy, so I won’t bother you any more.

I wish you a happy new year in advance."

After Fang Xiang put down the gift, he bowed to Professor Xu.

Without saying much, he just said goodbye.

“I didn’t expect this kid.

Not only is he good at doing things, he is also good at being a human being.”

After Fang Xiang closed the door, Professor Xu sighed.

"That's all because of your teaching."

Qin Jun was also very happy, and the impression he had on the other party was further strengthened.

Naturally, he said only nice things.

"You, please don't lead him astray."

Professor Xu was naturally happy.

But he still gave Qin Jun a slap on the tongue.

What are these apprentices like for me?

Professor Xu naturally knew what was going on.

But this Fang Xiang alone brings him more and more surprises.
