On the way to Old Sun's house, Zhang Jialiang expressed his gratitude to Sister Qian who came with him.

"Sister Qian, thank you for your help."

"Liangzi, you are too polite, this is my job.

I heard that you are very good at hunting and have a good harvest. I wonder if I can ask you for a favor?"

Officer Qian suddenly spoke.

After hearing this, Zhang Jialiang was a little surprised at first, but he immediately realized that he probably wanted to buy some prey like Director Zhao.

He really had no objection to this matter. Now that he was gaining more and more in the hunting space, if he took them all to trade on the black market, he was afraid that it would attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives and cause unnecessary trouble.

Having another way to deal with prey is a good thing for him, and it can also bring him closer to the people on the street. That's how he got to know Director Zhao. China is a society based on personal relationships, and it's always good to know more people.

"Sister, tell me if there's anything I can do to help you, and I'll definitely help you!"

"Brother, my sister has a large family, and we only have a few meat coupons every month. It's not easy for the children and the elderly to have a bite of meat.

You can hunt, if you can, come and exchange with me, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

“Sister, no problem, but the quantity may not be too much.

You also know that hunting is not an easy job, and you may not always get something, but there will always be some, and if you want it, I will leave it for you."

"Okay, I don't want more. I can't afford more.

Once or twice a month is enough. If the children and elderly at home can have two meals of meat a month, I will be satisfied."

"Okay, then I will prepare prey for you twice a month. Usually it is a rabbit and a pheasant, but it may also be fish, or something else.

I can't tell what the prey is right now, so I'll just eat whatever I catch, is that ok with you?"

"Of course not. This is good enough. What else can I ask for as long as I can eat meat? Any kind of meat is fine!"

After the discussion, the two of them soon arrived at the compound where Old Sun was.

"Director Qian is here, tell me what you want to say!"

As soon as we entered the compound, an elderly man in his 60s came over to greet Sister Qian.

"Nothing, I just want to look for Old Sun. Someone wants him to fix up the house. Uncle Liu, is he here?"

"Yes, in his room. He didn't go out today."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Liu. You go ahead and do your work. I'll go find Old Sun."

This courtyard is smaller, with two entrances. We arrived in front of a house in the west wing of the backyard.

"Old Sun, are you there?"

"Yes, yes! It's Qian Ganshi, what do you want to talk to me about?"

A man in his 50s, thin but energetic, walked out of the house quickly.

"Old Sun, this is Zhang Jialiang. He wants you to fix up his house. Do you have time recently?"

"Yes, I just don't have any work these two days."

"I'm just about to hand over the house, how about we go take a look now?"

"Okay, let's go!"

"Uncle Sun, my name is Zhang Jialiang, you can just call me Liangzi.

I am also from this street, my home is at No. 95, Nanluoguxiang, the house we went to is the back house of our yard, the one on the edge. "

Zhang Jialiang greeted Old Sun and began to introduce the house to be repaired.

Old Sun quickly understood after hearing this. He has been working in this area for many years, helping each household repair their houses, so he is very familiar with the houses in this area. He knew it as soon as Zhang Jialiang mentioned it.

“Oh, I know your hospital. I’ve been there many times, and I’ve repaired several rooms there.

I also know the back house you mentioned. It has been uninhabited for a long time. It really needs to be renovated, otherwise it will be uninhabitable.

The tiles above are leaking, the walls need to be painted, and the floor needs to be treated. Let's go inside and take a look, and then we'll talk about it in detail."

Soon the three of them returned to the courtyard. After entering the gate, they did not go into the main courtyard, but went directly to the back room chosen by Zhang Jialiang.

Sister Qian took out the key, unlocked the door, and opened it. Before she entered, a damp, rancid and unpleasant smell hit her in the face.

"Liangzi, this room has indeed been unoccupied for a long time, and many parts of the house are damaged. If you want to live here, you really need to repair it.

Old Sun, I'll leave this matter to you. Liangzi is my brother and the nephew of our director, so you have to pay more attention to it."

Secretary Qian waved his hands to drive away the foul smell while giving instructions to Old Sun.

After hearing what Secretary Qian said, Old Sun looked at Zhang Jialiang. He knew the Zhang family in this courtyard, but he didn't expect that the Zhang family had so many connections in the street.

It seems that we really need to be careful and not fool around, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the people on the street.

“Okay, don’t worry about Qian’s work, and don’t worry about me doing the work.

I am still confident in repairing the house. I guarantee that it will be beautifully repaired to satisfy Liangzi, you, and Director Zhao!"

"Thank you very much, Mr. Qian!"

Zhang Jialiang quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Liangzi, I'm going back soon. There's still a lot of things to do on the street. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions."

The work has been done and everything that needed to be explained has been explained, so Officer Qian is ready to return to the street.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

When the two men came to the gate, Director Qian asked Zhang Jialiang to go back quickly.

"Liangzi, go back. Old Sun is still looking at the house. Hurry up and discuss with him how to repair it. Hurry up and you can move in once it's repaired."

"Okay, sister. Then I won't give you any more. I will think about what you said and send it to you when I have it."

After Secretary Qian left, Zhang Jialiang returned to the back room. Old Sun was looking around the room. After walking around for a few times, he saw Zhang Jialiang coming back and started to discuss things with him.

"Liangzi, how are you going to fix it?

The tiles on the roof need to be repaired. Use the ones that are usable and replace the broken ones with new ones. Otherwise, it will leak all day and it will be uninhabitable.

This wall is old and needs repair.

You can repair the ground if you want, but you can still live there if you don’t want to. There’s nothing else to worry about. The windows and doors are still usable, and not much carpentry work is needed.”

"Uncle Sun, I want to open two windows on the back wall so that we can get some sunlight. Otherwise, the room is too dark."

"That's fine, but if we want to open the window, we have to discuss it with the people in the street. We can only do it if the street agrees."

The house belongs to the street, and any changes to the interior layout must be discussed with the street. Zhang Jialiang is of course aware of this.

"Of course. I've already informed Director Qian and Director Zhao, and the street office has also agreed. You can go to the street office to confirm it when you have time."
