Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 317: Sticks for Houses, Moving Away (Subscription Request)
"What are you doing!"

A loud shout was heard in the distance, followed by a dozen safety police officers approaching quickly.

Seeing so many workers surrounding them, these people immediately looked panicked. Some of them wanted to run, but it was too late. The workers approached and directly surrounded the group of people.

Zhao Qiang immediately took out his ID and said, "Comrade, I'm from the Security Bureau's Security Department. When I was escorting leader Zhou Fengnian back today, I saw these people gathered in front of his house, so I called you right away to inform you."

After a brief explanation, Zhao Qiang revealed a little about the identities of these people. They were probably family members of those who had been arrested, and they came to Zhou Fengnian to plead for mercy.

Chief Liu from the nearby police station came over. After listening to Zhao Qiang's words, he nodded and said, "Is that so? Then I know what to do. Leader?"

Zhao Qiang turned around and found Zhou Fengnian getting out of the car and walking over. He quickly said, "Leader, the situation outside is unclear, let's get back in the car."

Who knows what will be done to Zhou Fengnian.

"I'll just give my opinion and leave, comrade, we'll handle this matter as it should be handled, I won't beg for mercy for anyone!
You better check them out.

These people were here when my wife got off work. How long have they been here? What are the people from the street office and the joint defense team doing? Are they providing for the elderly? "

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking angrily, he turned around and went back to the car.

This is his attitude, no matter how many years I worked with him; small mistakes can be forgiven, but mistakes of principle cannot be forgiven at all.

What's more, they blocked his door today, which shows their high execution ability.

His wife Zhou Yan was almost blocked when she came back from get off work at around 5 o'clock, and no one cared?
The subdistrict office either didn’t receive the message or doesn’t want to get involved!
After hearing what was said, Director Liu Zhihua immediately understood Zhou Fengnian's dissatisfaction with them and said quickly, "Yes, leader, I will investigate it carefully when I return."

So when Director Liu heard Zhou Fengnian's reprimand, he felt a little anxious and panicked; because of one complaint from this leader, he might have to bear a five-year disciplinary punishment and then have no chance of promotion for three years.

"Take them back. Anyone who doesn't behave will be handcuffed. I'll see who dares to cause trouble!"

Director Liu turned to look at the group of troublemakers, his face turned black and he took out his pistol. If anyone dared to cause trouble, he would shoot them.

Seeing that the police station's security guards were serious and had even taken out their guns, these people immediately panicked. Some of them still shouted loudly at Zhou Fengnian's car, hoping that Zhou Fengnian would let them go.

However, those who first called out "Zhou Fengnian" were often the first to be handcuffed.

After being handcuffed and then pushed away, he finally had some peace and quiet.

Only then was Zhou Fengnian able to return home. When he arrived at the door, he knocked and called for help. Gong Lin inside opened the door a crack, and only when she saw that it was Zhou Fengnian did she open the door with a look of joy on her face.

Zhou Fengnian walked into the house and came to the backyard, where he happened to see Zhou Xianyang holding a stick in the yard.

Zhou Xianyang was immediately delighted and asked, "Dad, you're back? Are those people still outside?"

Zhou Fengnian said: "Drive them away, what do you want to do?"

"I'm just practicing. If those people outside rush in, I'll use the stick to protect our family."

Zhou Xianyang smiled and said, "This stick is light on one end and heavy on the other. It looks good and is perfect for hitting people. I'm thinking of painting it to make it a weapon."

When Zhou Fengnian took a look, he found that the stick had a nice shape and was also a good natural stick.

After seeing the stick, his anger disappeared by more than half, and he immediately stretched out his hand to Zhou Xianyang and said, "Give it to me."

"I'll hold it for you to see. Can't you see it clearly this way?"

"Stop talking, you won't even give me a stick, what can I expect from you in the future!"

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking of righteousness, Zhou Xianyang had no choice but to hand over the stick that he had finally touched.

But when handing over the stick, he was still a little worried and said, "Give it back to me after you're done."

Zhou Fengnian took the stick and swung it twice, then said with a smile: "I'll play with it for two days and then we'll talk."

"Eh!?"

Zhou Xianyang immediately said anxiously: "There is no one like you who would snatch the child's stick, Dad."

"I won't ask you to give it to me for nothing. I'll give you the house in exchange."

Zhou Fengnian said, "The house you bought last time hasn't been renovated yet, and it's not as good as mine. After you get the marriage certificate, this house will be given to you and your wife."

"Ok?"

Zhou Xianyang was startled and asked quickly, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly want to give me a house?"

"I want to take your mother to live in the senior cadres' family compound. At least it's a little quieter. This house is a private property, so only you can inherit it."

Zhou Fengnian said that this was an idea he had just come up with, but now he felt it was more and more feasible.

He thought this courtyard house was good at first because he was a poor boy at that time and was always thinking about how good the courtyard house was.

But after living there for a while, that's it.

What's more, he is now a senior cadre and is qualified to live in a better place, with a dedicated nanny and cook, as well as security guards and health doctors to serve him.

Now any small Western-style building can be directly allocated to Zhou Fengnian, and it will be fully staffed with personnel. It’s just that Zhou Fengnian was nostalgic and was used to living in a courtyard house.

"Are you really giving me this house? But I've already bought a house, although it's not as good as this one." Zhou Xianyang was a little tempted, but still asked: "Dad, what about my sister?"

"Linlin and Yiyi are of course with us. Come and see us whenever you miss your sisters. Come with me to transfer the ownership in a couple of days, and then I will apply for housing for senior officials."

After Zhou Fengnian finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to go back to the house to talk about this matter with Zhou Yan.

Too much information was leaked to other places, and he was a little worried about his daughter, who was not even ten years old.

"Dad, give me back the stick!"

"Let's talk another day."

When Zhou Yan heard about the move, she agreed without much thought. She was a little scared today, especially since Zhou Linlin was with her.

It was nothing more than a move. She didn't have any familiar neighbors nearby anyway, and the only ones she knew were at the factory.

After agreeing, Zhou Fengnian took time out the next day and took Zhou Xianyang to handle the transfer.

Now the transfer of real estate is gradually being opened up, and Zhou Fengnian is a senior leader. Upon learning that he was here to handle the property, the leaders of the Housing Management Office hurried down to help with the process.

All the formalities were completed in twenty minutes, and then the courtyard house became Zhou Xianyang's.

After completing the transfer of the house, Zhou Fengnian came to the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building and specifically asked Gu Wenjie how to allocate housing for senior cadres.

Gu Wenjie asked curiously, "Are you going to live in the cadre compound? Fengnian, I remember you have a house."

"Don't mention it, my wife and daughter were stuck in traffic when they came back."

Zhou Fengnian waved his hand and said, "I have already given the house to my son. My wife and I want to live in the cadre compound with our two daughters. At least we can feel more at ease in the future."

"What nonsense! The local subdistrict office and police station have seriously neglected their duties."

Gu Wenjie became angry when he heard this. After all, Zhou Fengnian was the deputy leader of their Fourth Ministry of Machine Building and also a substitute member of the committee. How could he be blocked at the door for two hours?
"It's easy to apply for the Cadre Academy. You will definitely be arranged at your level. Just prepare an application and ask someone to arrange it. It will be arranged for you in two or three days."

"The one I arranged for you last time was the small second floor. I don't know if it's still there. I'll ask them to prepare a comfortable one for you."

Zhou Fengnian's level,
If he wants to live in the cadre dormitory, he will be given priority.

After asking Gu Wenjie how to apply, Zhou Fengnian went back to prepare the application documents.

After it was done, he asked Wang Mingjie to hand it over for him, and then he just had to wait for notification.

After doing this, Zhou Fengnian felt relieved. The security of the family compound at least gave him peace of mind, and there would be no more situations where people were blocking the gate.

Then Zhou Fengnian started working.

After looking at the recent reports, Zhou Fengnian dealt with them briefly.

Apart from instructing the computer factory to increase subsidies next year and asking the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building to also provide subsidies for computers, there was nothing else for him to deal with.

The development of the Internet in their country is a bit slow, and the popularization of computers is also very slow.

He plans to ask the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building to contribute part of the subsidy this year, so that all universities can use computers.

Only when college students can use computers will they find ways to buy one after graduation. Otherwise, it is too difficult to get ordinary workers to buy a computer.

They would rather buy a color TV than a personal computer.

We can’t just make money without building the domestic Internet, otherwise the gap between us and foreign countries will become increasingly larger.

Next year, we will begin to provide computer subsidies to high schools and technical secondary schools in major cities, in an effort to allow the next generation to have access to computers as soon as possible.

"Hello, leader."

After Director Wang picked up the phone, he heard an angry shout from the other end before he finished speaking.
"Wang Xiaoxia, what the hell are you doing? Did anyone gather in front of the home of Commissioner Zhou from the Fourth Ministry of Machine Building in Nanluoguxiang yesterday? Where is the joint defense team from the street office? Where are they?"

Recognizing the deputy district chief's voice, Wang Xiaoxia stood up in a panic and said, "Leader, I just learned about this today. The joint defense team just changed shifts yesterday afternoon."

"No need to explain to me! Commissioner Zhou is already planning to move away. You are amazing. There is only one important task in the district, and you 'forced it to move'. Even our district has become famous!"

The deputy district chief cursed loudly, saying that the director of the sub-district office was of a high rank and that if he was promoted one or two levels higher he would be at his level.

Especially since Wang Xiaoxia is a lesbian, the deputy district mayor still couldn't help but scold her today.

If you can't even handle such a small matter, what else can you do?
"Don't talk nonsense for now. You and Deputy Director Gao come here immediately to hold a meeting in the district!"

"Leader, what happened yesterday"

"Come to the meeting, Wang Xiaoxia!"

After saying that, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.

Hearing the phone being hung up, Wang Xiaoxia, the director of the subdistrict office, felt extremely regretful. She shouldn't have pretended not to know about her previous little thoughts.

She might not be able to continue working as the director. From the phone call just now, Wang Xiaoxia could probably guess how angry the district was right now.
