Chapter 23: Shang's father seeks external assistance

Father Shang told his master what happened after he came back. The old man was so angry that he slammed the table and said to the woman: "Xiaojuan, go and call your fellow apprentices back. No matter if they have time now or not, tell them that Xiaoyun has something to ask of them this time. If they don't come, don't blame me for punishing them."

"Okay, Dad, I'll go now." After that, the woman put on her coat and went out.

The old man in the room continued to chat with Shang's father about Shang's father's situation in the past few years. After an hour, more than a dozen people began to come in from outside the door. They were tall, short, fat and thin, and all of them were very happy to see Shang's father.

After everyone sat down, the woman said, "Dad, the eldest and third brothers didn't come because they had something to do, but they said they would come after they were done. They told Brother Shang not to leave, and we should get together in the evening. You know, the second brother went out of town and is not in Sijiu City. I can't contact the eldest brother, and the second brother is not at the unit because he is on a mission. Their colleagues didn't tell me where they went. The other brothers are here."

"Okay, go and look after the child! Let's discuss your brother Shang's matter. You are no longer needed."

"Okay, but Senior Brother Shang, please don't leave without saying goodbye. You didn't even get to drink at my and Second Senior Brother's wedding. I'll cook for you tonight and we'll have a good meal together."

Several fellow apprentices joked that they were not treated as well as Shang's father. The woman did not get angry. She retorted a few words and left.

Several fellow disciples then asked when Shang's father would come back? What happened? Why did he call everyone here so anxiously?

Mr. Shang first stood up and thanked his fellow disciples for their help, then he repeated the whole story. Several fellow disciples were very angry.

Several fellow disciples said that they would go together in the afternoon to help Mr. Shang settle the matter.

At this time, the youngest junior brother Wu Li said: "Brother Shang, I am the youngest, and I shouldn't say this, but I hope that Master and the other senior brothers will listen to my opinion first.

Let me say this first. It's not that I don't want to help Brother Shang, but now is a new society, and we should change some of our previous ideas. Apart from anything else, from what Brother Shang said, that group of people should not be the first time to do such a thing. If that group of people has guns, will we be injured if we are not careful?

Besides, have you ever thought about what I and the elder brother do? You don't need to do anything about this. I will report it to the police station, bring people with me, and catch all the people in the afternoon. It will also add credit to me."

The brothers and sisters then realized that this is no longer the old society and if there is any problem, they will have to find someone to solve it themselves.

Father Shang suddenly said to Wu Li: "Junior brother, it's hard to ask the police for help, so I'm asking you brothers to help. According to what the deaf old lady said, she should have someone above her, and I don't know who her people are. If you take someone from the bureau with you and the news gets out, then..."

Before Mr. Shang finished speaking, Wu Li said, "Brother, what you said is not right. Our JC team is still very pure. Now it is basically retired soldiers. People like me are also former members of our party in the Forty-Nine City. So I think your worries are unnecessary."

"Wu Li, you can't do this. How many people can you send? If there are too few people, it will be hard to control. If there are too many people, the news will easily leak out. After all, you still have people left over from the old era.

I've already thought about it. I'll leave this matter to your senior brother. The people on his side are reliable.

Don't think that the master has already thought about it and asked you to come. The main purpose of asking you to come is not to help your senior brother Shang, but because your senior brother Shang is back. Let you all know and spread the news. Don't let some irrelevant people disturb your senior brother's life. After all, your senior brother is now a worker, and there are some things he can no longer do. Do you understand?"

All the fellow disciples expressed that they understood and that they should get together even if nothing happened when Shang's father came back.

The old man gave instructions, saying that everyone should get together this weekend, and then asked all the disciples to go back. Then he took Shang's father out to a place and met the eldest disciple.

The eldest apprentice was in a meeting. When he learned that the master had arrived, he hurriedly ended the meeting and returned to his office, where he found the master and Shang's father sitting on the sofa. After greeting the master, he hugged Shang's father, patted each other on the back, and then let go and greeted each other.

Then he filled the teacups of his master and Shang's father with some water, asked about his purpose, and said to Shang's father, "Okay, I'll take care of this for you, you can go home with peace of mind, I will make arrangements in advance at noon, first arrest them, then interrogate them, and try to eradicate them completely.

How about I also directly handle some of the people in your hospital for you?"

"Thank you, Senior Brother. If I were alone, I wouldn't mind, but now I have a lot to worry about. I am no longer alone like before."

"Alright, you're still being polite to me. What you did back then really helped us a lot. If you hadn't discovered it in time and intervened, our people in City 49 would have suffered heavy losses. Everyone remembers your kindness. Now that you're back, I'll take you to meet some people that day!"

"Brother, I'm fine now. I'll report to the Red Star Steel Mill after the expansion is completed in a few days. I don't have any big ambitions. I just want to do my job well."

"Haha... you sound so relaxed. Everyone knows what you did back then. How did you think you became the workshop director this time? And your boss is probably going to retire soon. I heard that he is now a big shot, a tiger from the Southwest Military Region, much better than you, Shang Yunlong."

"The boss is coming back? When? Haha... Wasn't I young at that time? You'd better not say that. As soon as you say that, I remember that you broke three sticks because of this matter! That was three sticks. I didn't get out of bed for half a month, brother!"

"Haha... that's because you're too high-profile. Your boss has to wait for two years. He won't be treated well over there, and he won't be willing to come back.

Okay, I won’t talk to you anymore because I have something else to say. You can go back. Bring your wife and kids to the master’s place to have a good gathering on the weekend. I will arrange for someone to deal with these rats shortly.

I will send the master back. He still holds the title of consultant and comes only a few times a year. I will ask him to guide the younger ones."

"Okay, then Master, I'll leave first. I really have something to do today and I'm in a hurry."

The master and the eldest brother told them to leave quickly and not to disturb them.

Under the guidance of the guard, Shang's father left the eldest brother's department. After thanking the guard, Shang's father hurried home.
