Siheyuan: Separate from the beginning and live with my sister

The steel mill relies on coal and steel. The lack of either of them will greatly affect production, which makes Li Huaide very troubled.

This 50% of coal supply was finally secured after Li Huaide had much persuasion with a deputy mine manager who he usually worked with.

However, the matter was of great importance, so he called the factory to report the problem as soon as he returned to the guesthouse before signing the contract.

And no one knows where his brother He Lin has gone. This kid is very smart. With him around, maybe he can come up with some good ideas.

As they were talking, two police officers came in from outside.

"Excuse me, are you from the Sijiucheng Red Star Steel Mill? Your colleague He Lin is taking a statement at the Public Security Bureau and will be back later. We came to inform you."

"What? Did something happen to He Lin? We need to go see him now."

Deputy Director Li really treated He Lin as a brother. When he heard that He Lin was in the Public Security Bureau, he immediately became restless.

"Comrade, please rest assured. It's not that He Lin is in trouble. He helped us solve a major spy case. Our director is asking him to assist in the investigation. He should be back soon."

Without waiting for Li Huaide and others to say anything, the two public security comrades completed the message and turned back.

A major spy case?

These days, anything related to the word "spy" is nothing small. He Lin is really an unusual kid. He caused such a big trouble after only being separated for a few hours.

Li Huaide and Li Jinshan stared at each other, not knowing what the situation was. Since the public security comrades asked them to wait here, they decided to wait.

It was not until the flowers that Li Huaide and others had grown had all withered that He Lin was sent back by his comrades from the Public Security Bureau.

It's not his fault. It was because Old Yang, the martial arts fanatic, kept talking to him about Wing Chun and grappling, and it was like an academic exchange meeting on martial arts.

As soon as the comrades from the Public Security Bureau left, Li Huaide could no longer bear the worry in his heart.

"Oh, my dear brother, are you okay? The police just came over and said you were involved in some crime with the spies. I was so worried about you."

As soon as Li Huaide saw He Lin, he gave him an extremely exaggerated greeting, which made He Lin very embarrassed.

After spending this time together, Li Jinshan was no longer surprised. He knew that the personal relationship between the two was extraordinary, and he admired He Lin's abilities even more.

We are both section chiefs, but he is in his early 20s and I am half dead, but he can still hug the factory director's neck and call him brother, while I can only obey his orders respectfully. It's really a case of comparing people to each other will make you die, and comparing goods to each other will make you throw them away.

"Brother Li, I'm fine. I just went to eat a bowl of knife-cut noodles. It's just that something happened during that time that delayed me for so long. I'm sorry to have made you worried."

He Lin had been sitting in a car for a whole day, had been kidnapped by spies, and was later dragged by Old Man Yang to attend a half-day exchange meeting. He was already exhausted both physically and mentally and wanted to rest early.

"A minor incident? There can be no such thing as a minor incident in a spy case. My brother, you want us to be anxious to death. Tell us quickly."

In desperation, He Lin briefly recounted what happened after they separated.

Due to confidentiality requirements, matters involving secret agents were only mentioned briefly, but even so, the two of them were terrified. They were both holding guns and had grenades hanging around their waists. If they were not careful, it could lead to an earth-shattering event.

Even though Li Jinshan was in charge of security and carried a pistol, he hadn't fired a gun in many years, let alone something as important as a grenade.

"That's what happened. The spies have been arrested now, so you can rest assured. By the way, Brother Li, how is the coal contract negotiation going?"

When this was mentioned, the two men's excited faces darkened, and it was Li Jinshan who started talking about the negotiations.

"Brother He, we have agreed to talk, but the key is that the other party wants to reduce the coal supply by 50%, which will have a huge impact on our factory."

"Jinshan is right. With the help of the cutting machine production line and the other stuff you made, our factory's output this year will be greatly improved. But we didn't expect that coal supply has become a problem now. If we look for other suppliers now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to negotiate. I'd better wait until tomorrow and ask an acquaintance to use his connections to see if there is any turnaround."

"Brother, you were frightened today. You can rest in the guesthouse tomorrow. Jinshan and I will take care of this matter."

What He Lin suddenly thought of was that the big brother he had just met had invited him to his house for dinner.

"Okay then, Brother Li has something else I want to tell you."

These words frightened Li Huaide again. Everything this kid did now made him nervous.

"What's the matter?"

"When I had trouble at the noodle shop, I met a great old man. We are now sworn brothers. He invited us to have lunch at his house tomorrow at noon. It's as simple as that."

Li Huaide thought that he was also in Pingcheng to build relationships, and there should be nothing to do tomorrow at noon anyway, so he agreed.

The next morning, when He Lin was still resting in the guesthouse, Li Huaide and others went to Pingcheng No. 1 Coal Mine again and did not return until almost noon.

Through a phone call from the guesthouse, Li Huaide has received instructions from the factory that he can accept the current contract first.

He thought that if it really didn't work out, he would sign the 50% contract first and then look for other suppliers when he returned.

"Brother Li, how are you guys doing?"

"What else can I do? You don't know that the entrance to the coal mine office is full of people. They are all from various units asking for coal supply. I only got in through my connections and had a few words with the mine manager. It didn't have much effect. The factory has agreed to take this share first. We will go and sign the contract tomorrow."

He Lin saw that the coal matter had not been done. Although he wanted to help, he didn't know anyone in Pingcheng and was really powerless.

However, even if things are not going smoothly, the factory finally understands their difficulties. Once the contract is signed tomorrow, they can return home.

"Well, we should do our best and leave the rest to fate. The overall environment now requires coal supply. Brother Li, don't take it too seriously. It's almost time. Let's go to the banquet. I'll introduce a new friend to everyone later."

He Lin was not idle in the morning. It was his first time to eat at someone's house, so there was no reason for him to go empty-handed.

As he was unfamiliar with the place, he did not take anything out of the space, but ran to several places in Pingcheng and bought some biscuits, fruits and other snacks.

After collecting several large bags, all the gifts were finally ready.

According to the address left by Yang Zhihua, driver Xiao Wang quickly arrived at the destination.

Wow, a small courtyard of a detached house with neatly trimmed flowers and plants outside. It is obvious that this is not an ordinary family's.
