Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

Go through the moon gate to the front yard.

For the first time in his life, Wang Dabao did not meet Yan Bugui. Normally, Yan Bugui should have gotten up and watered the flowers at this time.

Looking towards the gate of Old Yan's house, there was no movement. Wang Dabao pushed his bicycle out of the compound and rode straight to the steel rolling mill.

The environment in Sijiu City today cannot be said to be good. When the wind blows, you will be covered in sand. But at least there are not as many cars as in later generations, so you don’t have to breathe in exhaust fumes.

When Wang Dabao read fan fiction in his previous life, he thought that riding a bicycle in this era was the same as driving a Rambo in later generations. But the reality was that there were really a lot of bicycles in Old Beijing, and every compound had two or three.

This is the case when you need a ticket to buy a bicycle.

When they arrived at the south gate of the steel rolling mill, the same routine as yesterday was followed. The bicycle was handed to Zheng Jun and pushed to the duty room. Wang Dabao followed him inside to sit for a while, smoke a cigarette and drink a cup of tea.

"How was it? Did anything happen at the gate last night?"

Wang Dabao asked Zheng Jun while drinking tea.

Zheng Jun laughed and helped Wang Dabao light his cigarette: "Recently, it's all about trivial matters. The brothers were talking about your deeds last night, Chief Wang."

"My deeds?"

Zheng Jun had piqued Wang Dabao's curiosity.

"It was about how many Japanese soldiers you killed on the battlefield. In the end, I told them Chief Hu's original words, which calmed their quarrel.

Wang Dabao was a little embarrassed, and said after a moment's hesitation: "Tell the brothers that they are just like the soldiers on the battlefield, they are all defending the country. If our country wants to become prosperous and strong, we must first resist the invasion and theft of enemy agents. The burden on their shoulders is not light either."

"Yes."

Zheng Jun stood up and saluted Wang Dabao.

After leaving the duty room of the first squadron of the security team, Wang Dabao first went to the office building, stayed there for a while, and then went to Chief Hu's office.

The door of the office in the headquarters building was not locked, but Section Chief Hu was not there. I guess he was in the lounge in the security building.

Seeing that it was almost nine o'clock, Wang Dabao strolled to the conference room in the security building.

When the door was opened, there was smoke everywhere, choking the female comrade in logistics so much that she had to cover her mouth and nose with her clothes.

"Put out your cigarettes."

Once Wang Dabao has spoken, no one dares to disobey. This is what happened to Zhao Zhongyi yesterday.

Is Zhao Zhongyi so awesome? But he was almost shot by Wang Dabao!

Everyone in the security department has extensive personal connections, not to mention that those working here are all at the team leader level. They had already found out that Zhao Zhongyi and his lackeys had been sent back to his backstage supporters, and now they have become ordinary workers, working in the workshop.

Now Wang Dabao is a man of final say in the Security Department. Anyone who dares to offend him at this time would be seeking death. You must know that the first fire of this new official after taking office has already burned Zhao Zhongyi to death, and the second fire has not yet started.

There is no fool who can become the captain of the security department, and he will not try to be brave at this time.

Seeing everyone put out their cigarettes, Feng Biao quickly stood up and opened all the windows to let out the smoke.

Wang Dabao did not sit in the main seat, but chose a chair next to the main seat.

Although Section Chief Hu handed over the power to himself, Section Chief Hu has not retired after all. Normally, the two of them can joke around in the office, but in this kind of occasion, they still have to respect each other.

"It's not that we can't smoke. You saw what happened just now. If the door is opened, people who don't know would think the security building is on fire. If others come to put out the fire, it would be a joke."

Wang Dabao knocked on the table and said something that made everyone laugh.

Seeing that the serious atmosphere had eased, Wang Dabao took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his trouser pocket and threw them on the conference table, muttering to himself: "Damn, this position of section chief consumes too much cigarettes."

The group of captains, squadron leaders, and people from the fire and equipment departments around burst into laughter again.

When they met Section Chief Wang again today, the impression he left on them was completely different from what he left on them yesterday.

What was your impression of yesterday?

He is young, handsome, smiling, cruel, decisive, and kills people like crazy.

Today's Wang Dabao is more down-to-earth and real, and his words are easier for everyone to accept. His style is completely different from that of Section Chief Hu.

Seeing that no one was reaching for cigarettes, Wang Dabao looked around at everyone and said, "How about this? Let's make a rule from now on, and I and everyone else must abide by it. That is, no two people can smoke at the same time in the meeting room. One by one, so it's easier to let the smoke out through the open window."

"I think Chief Wang's suggestion is very good. Why didn't we think of it before?"

Zheng Jun was the first to praise, then he swallowed his saliva and reached for the Zhonghua cigarettes on the table, "Excuse me, everyone, I'm really greedy for such good cigarettes."

Through the contact over the past two days, Zheng Jun roughly understood Wang Dabao's character. Others didn't dare to take the cigarette because they wanted to give the first chance to smoke to Wang Dabao, or they didn't want to be the first to take the opportunity.

But Zheng Jun had no such concerns at all, he knew that Wang Dabao didn't care about these things at all.

Besides, he had already expressed his loyalty yesterday, and from now on he would follow Wang Dabao wholeheartedly.

Amid everyone's envious gazes, Zheng Jun happily opened the package, carefully took out a cigarette, put it under his nose and smelled it, and was about to put it in his mouth when he heard a "hiss" sound.

It seemed like the sound of a match being lit.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Wang Dabao shaking out the match in his hand, with a lit cigarette in his mouth.

"Old Zheng, it looks like you'll have to keep on getting addicted for a while longer."

Everyone was stunned. They never expected Wang Dabao to do such a thing.

Seeing everyone staring at him blankly, Wang Dabao took the cigarette out of his mouth: "Why don't you allow me to bring two packs of cigarettes?"

Everyone burst into laughter. Zheng Jun smiled bitterly and had to put the cigarette between his ears, waiting obediently for Wang Dabao to finish smoking.

Sure enough, ever since Wang Dabao set the rule, the smoke in the room has almost disappeared.

After a moment, Feng Biao, who was sitting next to Wang Dabao, lowered his voice and said, "Chief Wang, can we start the meeting?"

"Aren't you waiting for Chief Hu?"

Wang Dabao spoke in confusion.

Feng Biao smiled bitterly: "Chief Wang, you don't know that Chief Hu has asked for leave every Tuesday morning for the past two months, so there will be no meetings on this day recently."

"Oh, I see. Let's get started then."

The content of the meeting was very brief. Each team and logistics department reported, Wang Dabao made a brief instruction, and then Feng Biao and the squadron leaders gave a summary.

Generally, the morning meeting is to summarize yesterday’s work and report on today’s work. If nothing happens, it is almost the same. If something happens, it is an emergency meeting.

Half an hour later, Wang Dabao was already lying on the small bed in the lounge.

At around eleven o'clock, Wang Dabao got up and ran to Section Chief Hu's lounge across the street. He ran there again at a quarter past eleven. There was nothing he could do because his lunch box was still in the other person's office.

Until half past eleven, Section Chief Hu did not show up.

Wang Dabao picked up the phone and called the security team's duty room and asked Feng Biao to come up.

"Well, if you want to talk about this, I'll just ask someone to bring you food."

Feng Biao hurriedly ran to the second floor, thinking something had happened. It turned out that Wang Dabao's lunch box was locked in Section Chief Hu's office. "Section Chief Wang, you don't know that our security department has its own window in the cafeteria, which can also be said to be the security department's small cafeteria."
