Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

When the bell rang in the evening, Zhao Shanhe found Liu Guangtian and went home together. On the way, he told him to just keep an eye on the old lady and not to take any other actions.

He planned to personally watch the old lady's room at night during the next period of time. As long as someone came out, it would be impossible for them to escape the surveillance of his five senses.

After returning to the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai went door to door to notify everyone that a meeting would be held in the evening. Zhao Shanhe, Chen Xueru and Hou Kui ate a few bites of dinner in a hurry and went to the central courtyard.

I should also mention He Yushui here. She has already gone to school when technical secondary school started on September 9st. The school requires accommodation, so she can only come back once a week.

The tuition was paid by He Yuzhu. After all, this guy was quite sensible. This was also because Jia Dongxu was still alive and Qin Huairu hadn't been asking him to borrow money every now and then.

Chen Xueru also took out some money and gave it to Yu Shui to put in his pocket, mainly because the food outside was very expensive. Fortunately, the technical secondary school had a cafeteria that provided three meals a day, otherwise she really couldn't afford to go to this technical secondary school.

The theme of the whole courtyard meeting convened by Yi Zhonghai this time was about countering enemy spies. This was also the time today when the district held a meeting for the directors of subordinate streets. After Director Wang came back from the meeting, he called another meeting for the uncles from each courtyard. Now Old Yi is holding a meeting for the people in the courtyard again. It can be said that one level is suppressing another.

Lao Yi used the incident of the director of the third workshop being taken away today as an example to warn everyone to pay attention to the people around them, report any abnormalities in a timely manner, and never rely on luck.

Today, the director of the third workshop where he worked was taken away by the police. Although he didn't quite believe that the other party was an enemy spy, the biggest problem for this workshop director was that he didn't realize that Guo Dapiezi and Lao Hu were enemy spies.

(Workshop Director: Thank you, the pot is so big, I can’t stew one.)

Zhao Shanhe didn't sleep much last night and had no chance to slack off during the day. He almost fell asleep while listening to Yi Zhonghai's speech. Fortunately, Chen Xueru was watching him. After Old Yi finished the long speech conveyed by Director Wang, Chen Xueru slapped him on the thigh, which made Zhao Shanhe shudder.

"Shanhe, the conference is over, let's go back."

Zhao Shanhe rubbed his cheeks vigorously twice, stood up and was about to leave. At this time, the gas tank, which had lost a lot of weight, ran towards Yi Zhonghai.

"Uncle, wait a minute before leaving. I have something to say."

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai's mind was full of thoughts on whether the workshop director being taken away would have any impact on him, and whether he could take this opportunity to make further progress. He had no time to care about Jia Zhang.

He yelled at Jia Zhang who was running over.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, everyone didn't sleep well yesterday, and you've been busy at work all day. You got enough sleep during the day, but have you ever thought about other people?

You can talk to me later if you have something to say. The meeting is adjourned."

There were few people in the courtyard who didn't hate Jia Zhangshi. After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, they just picked up their benches and left.

Jia Zhang followed Yi Zhonghai to his doorstep and cursed him for half an hour before she vented her anger. But she was not as hungry as before, as her family was still facing a food crisis.

In the end, Jia Dongxu went over and talked to Old Yi about something, and Yi Zhonghai finally gave the Jia family a few pounds of corn flour. Although it was not as delicious as white flour, it finally allowed Jia Zhangshi to have two full meals.

Late at night, Zhao Shanhe saw that Chen Xueru was sleeping soundly, so he got up and quietly left the house, jumped onto the roof, and went straight to the backyard.

After three or two jumps, he reached the roof of the old lady's house. He concentrated his mind and amplified his five senses. He could clearly hear the old lady's breathing. It seemed that the old lady was sleeping very soundly, as her breathing was so heavy.

Zhao Shanhe originally wanted to try to see if he could get into the old lady's room, but unfortunately when he touched the door, it was locked from the inside. He had to return empty-handed. He couldn't just break in openly, right?

Didn't he notice that the old lady opened her eyes after he left? When one's martial arts skills are highly mastered, one will feel the sensation of "awakening before the autumn cicadas chirp". Zhao Shanhe had already reached the roof of someone's house, so how could the old lady not know?

But she couldn't guess who was on top of the house, and she didn't want to expose herself, so she let Zhao Shanhe jump around on top of her house.

After a good night's dream, it was already dawn in the blink of an eye.

Yang Liming went to Lou's house early in the morning. What he said to the deputy minister yesterday was not empty talk, but the result of careful consideration.

The ruins of a workshop in the factory were taken care of by Li Huaide from the logistics department, and the production issues of the workshop were temporarily taken over by Nie Yuanzhi. Yang Liming did not sleep all night, thinking about how to impress the Lou family and let them contact the Hong Kong businessmen to complete the transaction.

Today he did not take a jeep but came by bike. As for the transactions with capitalists, the fewer people who know about it, the better. If outsiders got to know about it and made up stories about him, it would affect his career to some extent.

When we arrived at the Lou family's small Western-style building, we got out of the car and rang the doorbell. A woman in her 40s opened the door.

Yang Liming had met Lou Bancheng, but he did not know Lou Tan. Seeing that she was dressed gorgeously and exuded a noble temperament, he knew that this was undoubtedly Mrs. Lou.

"Hello, I'm Yang Limin, the secretary of the steel mill. I'm here to visit Mr. Lou about something."

Lou Tan knew that the steel rolling mill the other party was talking about was his own former Lou Steel Mill. When he heard that the other party was the factory secretary, he must be the top leader. He did not dare to neglect him and led Yang Liming in.

When they arrived at the living room, they asked the servant to serve tea. Lou Tan went upstairs alone to find Lou Bancheng. Just as the servant brought the tea, she heard Lou Bancheng talking as he walked downstairs.

"Secretary Yang, why did you have time to come to my place today? Is it because of the enemy spies?

I heard that a workshop in the steel mill was reduced to ruins.

Yang Liming suddenly felt a burning sensation on his face. Before the public-private partnership, Lou's Steel Plant was a well-known factory in the city. At that time, no one dared to cause trouble.

Now that the public and private enterprises have been merged, they have become the target of enemy spies. Doesn't this make me look incompetent? And does it also highlight how great Lou Bancheng is?

Although he was indignant and wanted to tell the other side that those enemy spies came prepared and had been lurking in the steel mill for so many years, making it impossible to guard against them.

But since I came here to ask for help, I could only think about these words in my mind but dared not say them out loud. I could only endure the other party's ridicule and sarcasm.

“I’m really ashamed. As the saying goes, good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles.

I didn’t expect that Mr. Lou also knew about this.”

Lou Bancheng felt extremely relieved to see that Yang Liming, the current head of the steel rolling mill, was humiliated by him but did not even dare to challenge him.

When the public-private partnership was first implemented, he was severely reprimanded by Yang Liming's predecessor, who said that he did not cooperate and obey the national plan, and that his mind was filled with capitalist business. In the end, he was only left with a small number of shares, and was forced to run the factory in disgrace and get a little dividend every year, without even the right to make decisions about the steel mill.
