Xu Damao's Thirty-Six Stratagems in Siheyuan

Yi Zhonghai is still an experienced person after all.

"Then what I just said has been decided. In the future, let's try to avoid discussing this matter in the compound. After all, Banggeng is still young, and we should also adopt a helping attitude so that he can grow up healthily.

The next thing I am going to talk about is closely related to everyone. Everyone knows it and is involved in this matter. Since August last year, everyone's ration has been reduced. Many families are now hungry and full, especially those with many children. It is even more difficult.

Yi Zhonghai looked around for Xu Damao in the crowd.

"Hey, Xu Damao, come to the front, come on." Yi Zhonghai looked at Xu Damao who was standing on the platform of the main room and waved to him very friendly.

"Uncle, our yard is so small, if you have any problem, just tell me." Xu Damao felt that something bad was going to happen when he heard Yi Zhonghai's friendly expression. Yi Zhonghai was good at hiding a knife behind his smile.

"Da Mao, it's rare that you've returned to the compound. I've wanted to find you for a long time. Right now the entire compound is short of food. I heard that you're in charge of the logistics support for the factory and the outside world. You have a wide range of connections and a flexible mind. Can you help everyone solve some of the problems of material shortages? If everyone is not short of supplies, things like Banggeng stealing eggs won't happen."

"Uncle, who told you that I was in charge of the factory's logistics? How come I didn't even know when I was transferred from the Propaganda Department to the Logistics Department?"

"Da Mao, don't be so modest. Everyone in the factory knows that you were the one who arranged for the dried kelp in the factory and the pork in the canteen. Whether our hospital can improve its living conditions now depends on whether you, Xu Damao, can sincerely help everyone get some supplies."

Xu Damao was not angry either, he smiled and said to Yi Zhonghai,

"Uncle, thank you for trusting me. If I really have this ability, I will definitely help our compound solve the difficulties as soon as possible. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Right.

However, uncle, if you are really the factory director or the head of the personnel department, that would be great. I really want to work in the factory logistics department or the purchasing department. You said that I used to go to the countryside in the wind and rain, and I spent six days a week in the countryside. How could I have an easy life in logistics or purchasing? Look at my Xu Jun, he is so old now. When my wife gave birth to him, I was almost not around. Alas, it's a pity that you are not.

Dear neighbors, the old man just said that he heard it, not sure. I, Xu Damao, do not have the ability to help you improve your life. My monthly quota is about the same as everyone else's, even less than the old man and other front-line technicians. So I'm sorry, the old man asked me to serve you, but I am powerless. Now there is another person in my family, and I don't know how to solve the problem of food for my family. Look, today I had a meal of steamed bread with He Yuzhu at his house.

What the first uncle said above is not right, I would like to bring it up here and discuss it with you. The first uncle said that if there is no shortage of supplies, Banggeng would not steal eggs. I think this is not right. Everyone is not rich in supplies now, why does Banggeng go to the cross-yard to steal eggs, and you say you are greedy, and you can say that you are a child who is ignorant if you steal one or two. Have you seen people who even move the basin away? The third uncle's family is Jie Kuang, and the middle courtyard Li Dongsheng's family is Yuan Chao, who is about the same age as Banggeng. Why don't Jie Kuang and Yuan Chao go to other people's homes to steal things? And as far as I know, Banggeng is not just a family, he has been a family for a long time. I haven't been home for a long time because my wife is in her mother's house for confinement. Today, I saw that the lock on my door has been pried open. If you don't believe it, you can go and see if I am talking nonsense. Of course, I don't know who pried open my door. Nothing was lost at home, and I don't want to pursue anyone's responsibility. But whoever pried it knows. As the saying goes: If you don't want others to know, don't do it. If you stretch out your hand, you will be caught. Now the police's ability to detect and detect technology is improving day by day. You think the cunning spies can't escape the eyes of our police, let alone these little tricks. Crimes cannot be forgiven just because they are young. If children are forgiven, adults will also be held accountable. This is called guardian responsibility. Jia Dongxu, you don't need to quibble, I'm talking about you. "Xu Damao said, looking at Jia Dongxu's face as if he wanted to refute, and pointed it out directly.

"By the way, some time ago, I believe that most of the neighbors of the Red Star Factory here have heard the article on the factory radio, "Tighten your belt, overcome disasters, and build a new society." As a new party member who has been educated by the party for more than two years, I would like to make an appeal in our compound: difficulties are temporary. Let us work together, unify our thoughts, do everything possible, rely on our own efforts, resolutely implement the party's policies, overcome difficulties, and move towards a better future life."

Xu Damao made a long work report in Yard 95, catching Yi Zhonghai off guard: Is Xu Damao the leader or Yi Zhonghai the leader? However, Xu Damao was right. The disaster was nationwide, not just Yard 95. Besides, compared with small units, the situation of Red Star Factory was still good. What else is there to complain about? At least so far, every household in the compound can get enough water and not run out of food.

Yi Zhonghai could only agree. After all, up to now, except for Li Dongsheng and his wife who had not returned from military service and Xu Damao, all the others in No. 95 Courtyard were ordinary people. Whose consciousness is better?

"I think what Xu Damao said makes sense. The country is in trouble now, and we can't hold the country back. Difficulties are temporary. We must rely on our own efforts to overcome difficulties and contribute to the construction of New China. Today's meeting ends here. We still have to go to work tomorrow. Let's adjourn."

Yi Zhonghai was in a meeting and felt lonely and depressed. When he got home, he threw the enamel cup handed to him by an old lady to the ground.

"Old Yi, why are you doing this? I think you are a little possessed. Xu Damao is a government official after all, so why do you have to argue with him? Besides, Xu Damao has never offended you, so why do you have to take the initiative to go against them? You didn't get any advantage, but you got so angry that you smashed things. You broke your own things, and you have to buy new ones if they are broken."

"What do you, a woman, know? I found out today that it was Xu Damao who asked Li Xiang, the son of the Li family, to report the case to the police station. He is trampling on my face. If he continues like this, where will my prestige and dignity be? I must find a chance to punish him."

The aunt couldn't do anything to Yi Zhonghai. She didn't work and hadn't given birth to a boy or girl for Yi Zhonghai, so she had no confidence in her family's decision.

Xu Damao knew that he had offended Yi Zhonghai again today. But he was not afraid, because he still had a strong trump card to deal with Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai had been holding back the living expenses that He Daqing sent from Baoding to He Yushui for so many years, from 1953 to now 1960, a full seven years, 120 per year, almost 1,000. Hehe, let you help save for a few more years, now He Yuzhu's family of four can make a living, there is no need to rush. If Yi Zhonghai is shameless again and blows up this bomb of his, let's see how he will deal with it.
