Yan Jiecheng's Leisurely Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 125 Shichahai
After parting ways with the third boss, Yan Jiecheng quickly disappeared into a small alley.

After confirming that no one was following him, Yan Jiecheng put the two boxes directly into his spatial storage.

To be on the safe side, Yan Jiecheng did not restore his original appearance.

Instead, he continued to wander around the alley, turning left and right, going back and forth several times, until he was not far from his home before finally letting go of his disguise and returning home.

When Yan Jiecheng returned home, he was very happy to see two large boxes full of yellow croakers in his room.

With so much hard currency in hand, plus the antiques and paintings in the space, why should I worry about what will happen after the wave ends? I have nothing to worry about.

After the wave subsides, I can just lie at home and do nothing, and that will be enough for me to live a luxurious life.

Not only themselves, but even their own children no longer need to worry about making a living.

……

Time flies, and soon it was the end of 1968.

In the past two years, Yan Jiecheng has become increasingly low-key at the steel rolling mill, going to work and coming home every day and not getting involved in any other matters.

That day, Yan Jiecheng was sitting in his office, legs crossed, humming a tune and leisurely reading the newspaper, when the office door rang.

Strange, who would come looking for me at this time?

"Come in."

When the office door was opened, Yan Jiecheng couldn't help but frown upon seeing who it was.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, what brings you here?"

The person who came was Zhou Qian from the branch office. After saluting Yan Jiecheng, Zhou Qian sat down without waiting for Yan Jiecheng's permission.

"Director Yan, our branch is short-staffed recently, and we hope you can provide some assistance."

Seeing Zhou Qian talking to herself, Yan Jiecheng said with a displeased expression.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, you don't think I'll agree to your request just because you say it, do you? Besides, coming to me about this won't do you any good, will it?"

Zhou Qian was quite surprised when Yan Jiecheng refused. Then she realized that her tone might have been a bit harsh, so she forced a smile and pointed to the phone on Yan Jiecheng's desk.

"Director Yan, please don't refuse so soon. Our bureau chief will call you shortly."

As luck would have it, just as Zhou Qian finished speaking, the phone on Yan Jiecheng's desk rang.

When Yan Jiecheng answered the phone, he found that, just as Zhou Qian had said, the caller was indeed Li Weigong from the branch office.

Li Weigong was very polite on the phone. He first chatted with Yan Jiecheng about everyday things before getting down to business.

It's not a big deal; it just requires Yan Jiecheng to assign twenty people to assist.

Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng realized that it was indeed a minor matter and didn't require any formal documents, so he readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Yan Jiecheng looked up at Zhou Qian and said.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, you can just ask me directly. How could I refuse you? Why did you have to involve Director Li?"

Upon hearing Yan Jiecheng's shameless words, Zhou Qian couldn't help but roll her eyes.

She thought to herself that this guy was really shameless. He had just rejected her request. If she hadn't been so prescient, she would have gone home empty-handed.

Yan Jiecheng didn't seem to mind Zhou Qian's expression. He chuckled awkwardly twice and continued speaking.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, when will you need manpower?"

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng was getting down to business, Zhou Qian quickly calmed herself down and said with a serious expression.

"This afternoon, we received news that a fight broke out near Shichahai. It was quite large, and we need your assistance in handling it."

"No problem, I'll arrange for people to go with you right away."

"Alright, Director Yan, I won't bother you any longer. I'll wait at the factory gate."

Zhou Qian stopped halfway through her walk, turned to Yan Jiecheng, and said, "Director Yan, if you're bored in your office, you could join in the fun?"

After Zhou Qian finished speaking, she left the office quickly without waiting for Yan Jiecheng's reply.

After Zhou Qian left, Yan Jiecheng finally realized what had happened.

This little brat has no manners at all; how dare she joke around with me, the section chief!

However, he has a point; staying in the office all day can indeed be quite boring.

Thinking of this, Yan Jiecheng decided to follow Zhou Qian's advice and go join in the fun.

After making up his mind, Yan Jiecheng went to the factory protection team, selected twenty people, and set off in two trucks towards Shichahai.

After the group arrived at Shichahai, Yan Jiecheng saw that the ice rink was very lively, with skaters everywhere, and it didn't look like they were about to fight. He couldn't help but look at Zhou Qian beside him and say something.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, are you sure it's in this area?"

At this moment, Zhou Qian was getting information from two of her men who had stayed behind at Shichahai.

After hearing Yan Jiecheng's words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and say something.

"Director Yan, what's the rush? You're just here to join in the fun. The time isn't up yet."

After being rebuked by Zhou Qian, Yan Jiecheng chuckled twice and returned to the factory security team.

Yan Jiecheng never put on airs as a section chief with the factory security team. He was very popular with the team and soon he was chatting enthusiastically with them.

Just as everyone was engrossed in their conversation, Zhou Qian stormed up to Yan Jiecheng and angrily said...

"Director Yan, we are working right now, please be serious."

After Zhou Qian said that, Yan Jiecheng could no longer joke around with his teammates, so he could only get into the passenger seat and hide.

Just as Yan Jiecheng was about to fall asleep, Zhou Qian came over and knocked on the passenger window again.

Is this ever going to end?

Zhou Qian's actions infuriated Yan Jiecheng, and just as Yan Jiecheng was about to reprimand Zhou Qian...

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that a large number of people had gathered on the ice rink, and those who had been skating earlier had all left.

Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng knew that the operation was about to begin, so he swallowed back his scolding words and forced a smile.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, shall we begin?"

Zhou Qian gave Yan Jiecheng a disdainful look and said.

"Get out of the car immediately, take your men with you, and await my orders at any time."

Yan Jiecheng pretended not to hear what Zhou Qian said.

Just kidding, he's just here to watch the show. Work? Not even a dog would do that.

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng ignored her, Zhou Qian knew that she could not command this man, so she had to come to the factory protection team herself and start assigning tasks.

At this point, four or five hundred people quickly gathered at the skating rink.

The two sides chatted for a while, but it was clear that they did not reach an agreement and soon started arguing.

Yan Jiecheng could hear their argument even from outside the skating rink.

Yan Jiecheng looked at Zhou Qian, who was not far away, and said.

"Comrade Zhou Qian, why don't we step in and mediate before they make a move?"

Zhou Qian smiled wryly upon hearing this.

“If I could mediate, I wouldn’t be asking you for help. We’ve tried to mediate with these people more than once or twice, but it’s no use. They still cause trouble every now and then. This time, we must teach them a lesson.”
