Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

When Yi Zhonghai was in the factory before, he was actually just like Siheyuan, always pretending to be righteous and a kind-hearted old man. He was also always very enthusiastic in the workshop. Whenever his co-workers needed his help with anything, he would always appear very enthusiastic and provide some help.

Even when conflicts and quarrels occurred between workers in the workshop, he would always mediate in time and handle matters fairly. Therefore, Yi Zhonghai used to have a very good reputation in the factory, except that he seemed not very good at teaching apprentices. Some of his apprentices had low work levels and their skills improved very slowly. Apart from that, he seemed to be a loyal and honest person.

So when they first heard that Yi Zhonghai assisted his apprentice Jia Dongxu's family and took advantage of the death of their former master Yu in their workshop to bully Master Yu's children, tried to seize the property left by Master Yu to her son, and embezzled the condolence money given by the factory to Yu Xiuying's son, many people in their workshop couldn't believe it was true.

Although various news later proved that this matter was true, making some people angry with Yi Zhonghai and scolding him as a hypocritical beast, but after Yi Zhonghai forcibly defended himself, some people still chose to believe Yi Zhonghai's defense. After all, Yi Zhonghai's previous performance did not seem like the kind of person who could do such a beastly thing.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai's efforts in the factory during this period have achieved certain results. On the one hand, he has cleared himself, and on the other hand, he has discredited Lin Geng.

Several senior workers who had a good relationship with him in the past have secretly changed their attitude towards him and promised to wait for an opportunity. If Lin Geng enters the workshop, they are willing to accept Lin Geng as their apprentice and teach this bad boy who does not respect the elderly and love the young a good lesson.

Yi Zhonghai has been secretly rejoicing about this these days, thinking that as long as he works harder, he might be able to achieve his goal. As long as Lin Geng enters the workshop, he can ask his familiar friends to take him in as an apprentice. Then, won't he be able to control him however he wants?

But Yi Zhonghai was also a little confused. Ever since Lin Geng went to the factory to handle the handover procedures that day, he did not go to work immediately for some reason. He was still wandering around the house, looking like he had nothing to do. He didn't know why the kid was not in a hurry to go to work.

It was not until today when Qin Huairu came to tell him that Lin Geng was assigned to Purchasing Section 4 as a buyer by the factory that Yi Zhonghai realized that he had miscalculated again. It turned out that Lin Geng had no intention of joining the factory to take over his mother's shift. Instead, he directly applied to be a buyer in the Purchasing Department.

In this case, no matter how strong his connections are in the factory, they are only strong in the workshop. He is out of reach of Lin Geng, who works in the purchasing department, and has no way to deal with him.

After all, he has been working in the workshop, and his acquaintances and connections are all in several workshops. He has no connections at all in the purchasing department which is affiliated with logistics. If he wants to find someone to help deal with Lin Geng, he doesn't know who to find.

Yi Zhonghai was a little numb at this. He punched the bed angrily and said angrily, "Asshole, how can he go to the purchasing department? What right does he have to go to the purchasing department? He should get off the car and take the fucking shift. What right does he have?"

Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai lying on the hospital bed helplessly and furiously, and couldn't help but roll her eyes secretly. She thought to herself, he is the orphan of a martyr, and he has suffered so much injustice. The matter has become so serious, how can the factory not take care of him? Isn't it possible for him to go wherever he wants?

But she didn't dare to say this to Yi Zhonghai, and just followed Yi Zhonghai's words and said, "That's right, his mother is a worker in your workshop, he should also go to the workshop when he takes over. How can the factory do this? This is too much!"

Yi Zhonghai's face became even uglier with anger, his mood became even worse, his head hurt even more with anger, and he held his head and groaned continuously.

Qin Huairu saw that Yi Zhonghai looked very bad, so she hurriedly asked, "Uncle, what's wrong with you? Do you want me to go and call him?"

Yi Zhonghai felt a splitting headache and felt dizzy, so he said weakly: "Go find the nurse and tell her that I have a severe headache and ask them to prescribe two more painkillers for me!"

When Qin Huairu heard this, she hurriedly supported her big belly and went out to find a nurse. After a while, a nurse came in and asked about Yi Zhonghai's condition. Then she told Yi Zhonghai that he should not be too excited and should rest well for a few days. After a few days, the symptoms of concussion would disappear, and he would no longer have a headache and would not feel dizzy.

However, seeing how uncomfortable Yi Zhonghai looked, the nurse still gave him two painkillers and asked him to take them. After taking the painkillers, Yi Zhonghai felt that his headache was relieved a little. After resting for a while with his eyes closed, he slowly opened his eyes and sneered:

"That little bastard surnamed Lin is so smart that he thinks it's a good thing that the factory assigned him to the purchasing department. But I can't do anything to him after he gets to the purchasing department! Humph!

What a good place he thought the Purchasing Section 4 was. He was a loser who had never left the house before, with no relatives or friends. When he arrived at the Purchasing Section 4 and was about to hand in his assignment, he should have cried!

He doesn't even look at what kind of savvy people are in the fourth purchasing department. They all have extensive connections and are experienced hands in the market. Only then can they get some unplanned materials. He is a young man who doesn't know anyone, and he wants to get unplanned materials. Why doesn't he take a look at himself?

He is asking for trouble! I don't need to deal with him now. He won't be able to stay for more than a few months. He can't survive! Then he can only be driven to the boiler room to burn the boiler, or be driven to the foundry to do hard labor!

"Haha! Why should I be angry? He is courting death. He is asking for trouble!" When Yi Zhonghai said this, he suddenly laughed and felt much better.

He thought that Lin Geng went to Purchasing Department 4 because Director Yang must have been deliberately making trouble for him because of his old friendship with the deaf old lady. Others didn't know what Purchasing Department 4 of the steel rolling mill did, but he knew it very well. Purchasing Department 4 was the department responsible for purchasing various unplanned materials for the factory. Its main job was to purchase meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits and other agricultural and sideline products for the factory.

Moreover, the task of the fourth purchasing department is quite heavy. Everyone has a fixed amount of tasks every month. If you want to get these unplanned materials, especially meat, eggs, vegetables and the like, you need a wide network of contacts. Moreover, you need to have a wide network of contacts in the surrounding rural areas, and the relationships must be very strong. Otherwise, it will be difficult to complete the task.

All the buyers in the Purchasing Section 4 are experienced and well-connected people who make a living in the market. All of them are in their thirties, and there is not a single one under the age of thirty.

Lin Geng was only nineteen years old this year, but he was assigned to the Fourth Purchasing Department of the factory. If he was not crazy and asked to go there on his own, then it must be that the factory leaders deliberately made trouble for him and sent him to the Fourth Purchasing Department to make him suffer.

Yi Zhonghai tended to think that Director Yang was deliberately making trouble for Lin Geng for the sake of the deaf old lady. It was definitely not Lin Geng who took the initiative to ask to go to the Purchasing Department 4. Even if he proposed to go to the Purchasing Department, he would not have asked to go to the Purchasing Department 4. That would be pure self-destruction.

After realizing this, Yi Zhonghai put away his anger, became happy instead, and waited to see Lin Geng make a fool of himself.

After Qin Huairu heard Yi Zhonghai's detailed account of what the Purchasing Section 4 that Lin Geng went to do was, she also laughed. She also thought that Lin Geng was in trouble this time. The factory leaders must be dissatisfied with Lin Geng's making such a big fuss this time, and they wanted to deliberately make trouble for Lin Geng.

After figuring it out, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu both felt better. Qin Huairu sat by the bed, peeled the boiled sweet potato she brought and fed it to Yi Zhonghai.
