Courtyard House: Report enemy agents at the start, and you'll take off immediately.

Shortly afterward, the police arrived at the scene.

Then they handed over Chen Guangrong, Jia Zhangshi, and others to them for processing.

Afterwards, Zhao De and Section Chief Yang returned to the factory to report to Factory Director Yang.

Although they left, the incident has caused a great uproar in various courtyards in the area.

The older women gathered together and discussed whether Jia Zhangshi and her husband, Lao Jia, might be enemy agents.

The younger generation, such as Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, Yan Jiedi, Liu Guangtian, and Liu Guangqi.

They all idolized Zhao De to the point of worship—after all, Zhao De had done what they usually fantasized about most.

Prior to this, due to Zhao De's reputation, matchmakers found it difficult to arrange a marriage for him.

......................

Now, Zhao De has become a great hero for catching enemy spies.

Which girl wouldn't want to marry him?

This marriage is almost as good a deal as finding money.

Yi Zhonghai did not look well.

Come to think of it, after such a thing happened.

He was also a senior figure in the factory.

When Liu Haizhong finds out about this, he'll probably be in trouble.

In addition, he is also troubled about how to repair his relationship with Zhao De.

After hearing Zhao De's explanation today, I realized that we didn't help the Jia family back then.

It's because they suspect Lao Jia has a problem.

Therefore, it is not that Zhao De was cold-hearted and heartless.

On the contrary, it is a reasonable move.

Therefore, considering the conditions and the achievements of today...

......................

Zhao De is undoubtedly a better candidate to be the one to take care of the elderly than Sha Zhu.

However, repairing the relationship with Zhao De has become quite difficult.

After all, at that time.

The person who was truly most suitable to help the Jia family was actually Yi Zhonghai himself.

He was Jia Dongxu's mentor and also the head of the factory.

He has no children and earns a monthly salary of ninety-nine silver dollars.

Whether from a human perspective or from a logical standpoint...

He should be the one to do this.

However, Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to take on the burden of the Jia family.

Therefore, Zhao De was pushed to the front.

This is something everyone is well aware of.

......................

But it's not easy to say it outright.

Of course, Zhao De also noticed it.

Even if I didn't realize it immediately at the time, I'm sure I've figured it out now.

So, Yi Zhonghai entrusted Xiao Dang to an older woman for care.

He returned to the factory with a worried look on his face.

"Uncle, how's the situation going?"

Sha Zhu waited for Yi Zhonghai at the door and questioned him as soon as he saw him.

"Something terrible has happened. The entire Jia Zhang family has been arrested as enemy agents."

Yi Zhonghai briefly recounted what had happened.

"Even Sister Qin got arrested?"

"She's seven or eight months pregnant! Is Zhao De even human? Doesn't he have any compassion at all?"

"We all live in the same courtyard, is it really necessary to do this?"

"He calls himself an enemy agent? I think he's the one who looks like an enemy agent."

Sha Zhu was immediately enraged upon hearing this.

Ever since He Daqing eloped with Widow Bai.

Sha Zhu not only inherited the He family's culinary skills, but also carried forward the He family's fine traditions.

......................

Once Jia Dongxu leaves, Sha Zhu will be able to further develop and promote it.

In the past six months or so, the person who has truly provided the most financial assistance to the Jia family is actually Sha Zhu.

It was all thanks to his lunchbox that he brought back four or five meals every day, all of which he delivered to the Jia family.

One side has its own agenda, while the other side has its own needs.

Naturally, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu's relationship became increasingly intimate.

Therefore, upon hearing that Sister Qin had been arrested, they were immediately alarmed.

Sha Zhu immediately put the blame on Zhao De.

"Zhu Zi, stop talking nonsense."

Seeing that Sha Zhu was talking more and more outrageous, Yi Zhonghai quickly stopped him.

At this very moment, in the factory manager's office,

"Chen Guangrong really is an enemy agent!"

After Zhao De and Section Chief Yang came to report, Director Yang was both surprised and relieved.

Fortunately, they were caught in time; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Then, before lunchtime even arrived...

......................

The factory's loudspeaker then began broadcasting a notice about commending Comrade Zhao De.

"Attention all workers, an important announcement is coming up now."

"Comrade Zhao De, a third-level forger in the sixth forging workshop."

"This morning we successfully apprehended one enemy agent who had infiltrated our factory."

"Because Comrade Zhao De made significant and remarkable contributions to Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."

"After deliberation by the factory leadership, we have decided to commend Comrade Zhao De."

"A reward of 200 RMB will be given to him."

"Twenty catties of meat coupons, thirty catties of grain coupons, and ten catties of sugar coupons."

"A bicycle ticket and five industrial vouchers were given as encouragement for his outstanding performance."

"In addition, Comrade Zhao De will also be a representative of the advanced workers of the steel rolling mill this year."

.......................

Chapter Six: People You Treat Sincerely!

The subsequent announcement was released.

This caused a great sensation in the steel rolling mill with tens of thousands of employees.

As noon approached and everyone was about to have lunch...

The sudden broadcast sent shockwaves through the entire factory.

"Zhao De, I remember he was from the sixth forging workshop, and he was quite good-looking."

"Forget about the bonus and all the tickets, the key thing is the bicycle ticket too. He really hit the jackpot this time!"

"Old Zhao, your daughter doesn't have a boyfriend yet, right? Isn't this the perfect opportunity?"

...................

As the lunch bell rang, workers in uniform emerged in small groups.

Zhao De's capture of enemy agents immediately became a hot topic of discussion among them.
