Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, Propaganda Department Office.

Although Ye Wenwu and Xu Ying chatted for the whole afternoon, they were obviously not as intimate as in the morning.

Ye Wenwu also knew that he might have been too direct at noon and was labeled a pervert by the other party, but he didn't care. He just thought of it as finding someone to chat with and kill time.

But what surprised him was that Li Zhiqiang did not cause trouble for him.

He thought that Li Zhiqiang had investigated his situation with Deputy Director Li, and that he would at least slap himself in the face in front of Xu Ying to show how awesome he was.

But what Ye Wenwu didn't know was that Li Zhiqiang originally wanted to come over and teach him a lesson. I was taught a lesson by my uncle, Deputy Director Li.

Just let him teach Ye Wenwu a lesson when he returns home in the evening. It would be difficult to handle the situation if it happens in the factory. After all, Deputy Director Li also has political enemies. It would be bad if his own nephew does whatever he wants in the factory and is caught by Director Yang.

Meanwhile, Sha Zhu from the third canteen was sulking. He had not expected that he would be teased by Ye Wenwu. Although several workers behind him also suffered, and he had vented his anger, it still felt uncomfortable.

"Master, our cafeteria has been cleaned up. I see there is no water in your cup. I will go get you a glass of water."

The person who spoke was Sha Zhu's apprentice Ma Hua, who was also one of the few people in Hongxing Siheyuan with a positive outlook on life. It's not that simple. It can only be said that Shangguan basically disowned the people in Hongxing Siheyuan, but the people outside Hongxing Siheyuan all had positive outlooks on life.

Seeing the teacup handed over by his apprentice Ma Hua, Sha Zhu suddenly had an idea.

"Ma Hua, do you think there is any way I can deal with someone?"

Ma Hua certainly knew who his master was talking about. After all, everyone saw it at noon, and his master was indeed teased by the other party. You know, his master never hides things from him. After thinking about it, he said:

"Master, he is an officer of the Propaganda Department after all. It would not be good to fight him in the factory. Why don't you find a few people to ambush him in the alley at night?"

Upon hearing his apprentice's bad idea, Sha Zhu looked excited.

"Yes, I can ambush him in the alley. Anyway, Ye Wenwu won't know that I was the one who beat him. However, the two brothers go to get off work together every day, which is a problem. But one day, the two brothers will definitely separate. I don't believe they won't separate."

Thinking of this, Sha Zhu stopped being upset.

"Okay, go check what needs to be cleaned in the kitchen and ask everyone to clean it up together. After all, our Third Canteen is the canteen of the government office. If the leader sees the mess, he will definitely rank us as the fourth worst."

Sha Zhu simply sent his apprentice Ma Hua away, crossed his legs and hummed a little tune by himself.

The afternoon passed in a flash.

Before the bell for getting off work rang, Sha Zhu was already carrying the lunch box he had prepared and walked out of the factory in advance.

When Sha Zhu saw the security officers on both sides of the door, he didn't even look at them.

"Master He is off work."

One of the security officers greeted him with a smile.

This time Sha Zhu couldn't just ignore it. Although his name was Sha Zhu, he wasn't really stupid, and there was no need to offend a security guard for no reason.

"Well, I've almost finished cleaning the kitchen. I don't have anything to do tonight, so I'll go back first."

After hearing Sha Zhu's explanation, the two security officers looked at each other and walked up to Sha Zhu.

"I'm sorry, Master He, our security department received a report that you took something out without permission. Please cooperate with our investigation."

Hearing what the security staff said, Sha Zhu's face turned ugly. You know, he has worked in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill for so many years, especially his relationship with the factory director and others is real. Even if someone reports the security department, they will turn a blind eye.

But I didn't expect that the security department would change its nature today.

"Comrades, I have a special relationship with your section chief. Are you sure you want to take me for a body search?"

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, both of them couldn't hold back the smiles on their faces. If Sha Zhu had said this to someone else, the two of them might have really taken it seriously. However, their section chief had come back and scolded Sha Zhu, saying that this guy had the factory director's support behind him, but he didn't even give him face.

"Master He, please cooperate with the investigation, and please give us two brothers some face and don't make things difficult for us. After all, we are just following orders."

Sha Zhu had no choice but to follow the two security personnel into the guard room.

The security department's demands were excessive because they said they heard someone report that you were hiding something on your body, so in order to prove that he didn't have anything on him, Sha Zhu stripped himself completely naked.

Then Sha Zhu walked away with a grim look on his face under the apologetic gazes of the two security officers.

Seeing Sha Zhu's figure, the two security officers looked at him with disdain. If it weren't for Sha Zhu's good cooking skills, he would have been caught by their security personnel long ago. He took things from the factory every day and no one could protect him. It was just that the two factory directors needed him.

As Sha Zhu was walking on the road, he also thought about who was targeting him.

You have to know that in all the years he has been looking for factories in Red Star, the security department has never been so excessive. He doesn't believe that there is no one targeting him.

However, even if I tell Director Yang or Deputy Director Li about this matter, there will be no result. After all, the Security Department has also received information about the report and it is just a formal inspection.

As for who the whistleblower is, you don’t have to think about it to know who it is.

Sha Zhu has offended many people, but few of them dare to challenge him.

As for Xu Damao, it's not that he looked down on Xu Damao, but Xu Damao really didn't have the ability to make the security department vent his anger for him. As for Xu Damao, he was now showing movies in the commune and hadn't come back in the past few days. How could it be his? And he didn't offend him in the past few days.

The only person he had offended today was Ye Wenwu. Thinking about how Ye Wenwu had hooked up with a girl prettier than his sister Qin in just one morning, and had become an officer in the Propaganda Department with a worker's quota, he must be able to make the people in the Security Department vent their anger for him, although he didn't know how much Ye Wenwu had paid.

But Sha Zhu was certain in his heart that Ye Wenwu must be the one behind this, but he still needed to talk to his uncle Yi Zhonghai about this matter, as his plans had to change.

When Ye Wenwu was calculating against Sha Zhu, he never thought that he could hide it from Sha Zhu. Even if he could hide it from Sha Zhu, he couldn't hide it from the uncle Yi Zhonghai. Moreover, there were huge benefits in doing this himself.

Not only did it let Uncle Yi Zhonghai and the others know that he had someone in the Security Department, it also let them know that they were not alone, and it could also prevent their plans from failing.
