Courtyard House: He Daqing Forces Qin Huairu into Marrying at the Beginning

Husbands and wives are birds of the same forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly separately.

If such a thing were to happen in future generations, Yao Min would be lucky if she didn't try her best to rescue them or even abscond with the money.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Thank you, Great Qing."

Yao Min bowed deeply to He Daqing and ran outside without stopping.

"Sister Yao is a pitiful person."

Qin Huairu watched Yao Min's departing figure and sighed with a bitter face.

As a woman herself, she could empathize with Yao Min's pain even more.

If it were He Daqing who was arrested, Qin Huairu would probably be even more panicked and helpless.

"In the midst of the torrent of the times, the power of an individual is insignificant."

When faced with situations beyond their control, endurance and acceptance are the only options for the vast majority of people.

He Daqing originally just wanted to rely on the cheat code to lead his family to a peaceful and happy life.

Yi Zhonghai's case served as a wake-up call for him.

The thought of the many storms that will come in the coming decades is unbearable.

A peaceful life is very likely to be suddenly disrupted.

He Daqing secretly resolved to make multiple preparations in order to safely weather the crisis.

Chapter 35 Promotion and salary increase

After two days of careful investigation, Yi Zhonghai was finally cleared of suspicion and released.

When Yi Zhonghai returned to the courtyard house, Yao Min burst into tears of joy.

"Yi Zhonghai, you bastard, you've driven me crazy..."

The couple, who had survived the ordeal, embraced tightly, savoring this hard-won reunion.

"Yao Min, what happened to your head?"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai entered the hospital, he noticed that Yao Min's forehead was wrapped in a thick bandage, with a faint trace of crimson showing through.

"It's alright, it's alright, it's good that you're back."

Yao Min wiped away her tears and forced a smile as she comforted her.

Over the past two days, Yao Min has gone to the steel rolling mill and begged everyone she could.

I don't know how many times I kowtowed; my forehead was even bleeding from the kowtow.

The factory workers were heartbroken to see the tragic scene, and many of them wrote a joint letter to support Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai was able to get out so quickly thanks to everyone.

"Wife, it is I, Yi Zhonghai, who has wronged you."

I promise I will listen to you from now on and never do things my own way again.

Yi Zhonghai's eyes welled up with tears, and he sobbed softly.

After these days of hardship, Yi Zhonghai has come to terms with it.

In his quest to find Jia Xudong, Yi Zhonghai became embroiled in the affair, suffering immense hardship.

Now that Liu Wu is dead, how could he dare to continue the investigation?

We don't need Jia Xudong.

It's more realistic to listen to Yao Min and adopt a child from the orphanage.

……

In Lou Zhenhua's office at Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, He Daqing and Wang Dahai were receiving awards.

"Comrades He Daqing and Wang Dahai, your timely reports played a very important role in eliminating saboteurs."

It was your courage and fearlessness that thwarted the enemy's sabotage plan.

On behalf of the higher authorities, I thank you for your contributions to maintaining social order.

With a smile on his face, Zhang Ming stepped forward to congratulate the two comrades.

This incident led to the discovery of dozens of saboteurs hiding in Beijing.

Those bad guys were all identified as enemy agents, and the vast majority of them were shot.

He Daqing and Wang Dahai made significant contributions.

Each person received a million in bonuses alone, and their meritorious service was remembered by the higher-ups.

"These are things we should do."

Maintaining social stability is everyone's responsibility.

Those saboteurs seriously endanger the lives and property of the people, and everyone has the right to punish them.

It is our honor to contribute to eliminating saboteurs.

He Daqing was humble, without a trace of arrogance.

He knew very well that what he had accomplished was only a minor achievement, and the real heroes were the brave soldiers.

"In the Qing Dynasty, steel mills were also among the targets of those saboteurs."

If it weren't for your timely notification, the steel rolling mill would probably be in danger.

On behalf of everyone in the factory, I thank you.

Lou Zhenhua grasped He Daqing's hand and said gratefully.

Currently, all sectors of society are cracking down on saboteurs, and He Daqing's actions can be considered a typical example of military-civilian cooperation.

If he weren't afraid of saboteurs harming him, he would have published this story in the newspaper.

Lou Zhenhua, being a capitalist by origin, is very clear about his own position and will naturally fully support the actions taken by his superiors.

Taking the opportunity to elevate He Daqing is a way of showing his firm support.

"It's all thanks to Chairman Lou's excellent teaching."

The chairman often talks to us about the harm caused by saboteurs, urging us to take it as a warning.

We can't let them run rampant.

He Daqing was a savvy politician and cooperated well with Lou Zhenhua's actions.

If subordinates do well, it's all the leader's credit.

"Given your performance, the factory has decided, after discussion, to promote you both."

Wang Dahai, effective today, you are being transferred to the position of Deputy Director of the Logistics Department.

"He Daqing, starting today, you will concurrently serve as the head of the second canteen."

Lou Zhenhua's praise was very subtle; he knew that his status as a capitalist might cause trouble for his subordinates.

Therefore, the two were promoted in the name of the factory collective.

By not following the chairman's personal path and having a proven track record, it prevents others from using this incident against them in the future.

"Thank you for the factory's trust, and thank you Chairman Lou."

We will definitely work hard in the future and achieve even greater success.

Lou Zhenhua was an honest man, and on behalf of the factory, he gave each of He Daqing and the others two million yuan.

With promotions, raises, and bonuses, He Daqing and his partner have made a fortune.

After a series of actions, the commendation ceremony ended, and everyone returned to their respective posts to continue working.

"Director He, I'll be leaving my office to you from now on."

Wang Dahai patted He Daqing on the shoulder and grinned, revealing a leisurely smile.

The logistics department is known as a lucrative position in the factory; even as a deputy director, the pay is much better than that of the director of the second canteen.

Wang Dahai was extremely grateful to He Daqing.

"Director Wang, remember to clean up my office. I don't want to see anything strange."

He Daqing became the director, his salary increased to 700,000 yuan, and more importantly, he joined the management of the steel rolling mill, which was a significant leap.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely clean it up for you."

Wang Dahai was in a great mood, walking with a brisk pace, the fat on his belly swaying gently as if dancing.

Upon entering Wang Dahai's office, He Daqing closed the door, his expression changed, and he became serious.

"The logistics department holds a very high position in the factory, and the waters run deep."

You must proceed with caution.

Where there are interests, there are conflicts. The logistics department is lucrative, so infighting is inevitable.

In a few years, the steel rolling mill will be a joint public-private enterprise, at which time the entire factory management will undergo tremendous changes.

He Daqing mainly makes a living through his cooking skills, and since the position of director of the second canteen is relatively marginal, he will not be greatly affected.

Wang Dahai, as the deputy director of the logistics department, is different.

Going up the mountain is easy, but coming down is hard. Once you reach a certain height, a bloody battle is inevitable.

At that point, it's hard to say whether they can even land safely, let alone maintain their position.

Wang Dahai chuckled, his round face gradually turning serious.

"Great Qing, I am twelve years older than you, and I am forty-five years old this year."

I'll be retiring in another ten years or so.

I know you are sincere towards me.
