The Dream Fulfillment Master in the Courtyard

Chapter 53: One Radish, One Pit

"Brother Chen, what's wrong with the section chief today?"

After Qian Weigong and Fan Zhijun left, Shen Zhiyu looked at Chen Guofu.

Chen Guofu chuckled and said, "Well, the section chief didn't know you went to investigate a case with Old Sun from the Municipal Bureau before!"

"...?!"

Shen Zhiyu's eyes widened. "Brother Chen, you were all there at the time. Director Sun said he had already spoken to our section chief!"

Chen Guofu spread his hands and said, "We told them, but the section chief said he didn't know!"

"Isn't this a scam?!"

Shen Zhiyu was speechless; he had been tricked by Sun Xu.

But what can a lowly henchman do?

Both sides are powerful figures; he can't afford to offend either of them.

However, I've learned my lesson. Next time something happens, I'll definitely consult with my supervisor first!

To be honest, I was blinded by beauty. When I heard about the exhibition hall, I thought of Ye Yingying and forgot to tell Qian Weigong.

learn a lesson!

Shen Zhiyu could never be as ruthless as Tianbao!

After all, when you find a woman who can control your emotions, don't hesitate, kill her!

Such a brutal and domineering style of behavior is not realistic in today's world!

Although she received a warning look from the section chief, Shen Zhiyu didn't take it seriously.

After chatting with Chen Guofu for a while, Fan Zhijun returned.

"Section Chief, have you had some good news?"

Fan Zhijun's return was marked by a joyful expression, which piqued the curiosity of Shen Zhiyu and Chen Guofu.

Fan Zhijun chuckled and said, "I got promoted!"

"Deputy Director?"

"Deputy Division Chief!"

Fan Zhijun chuckled and said, "However, you'll be transferred from the steel rolling mill to the security department of the North Suburb Machinery Factory, where you'll be the head!"

The North Suburb Machinery Factory was smaller than the steel rolling mill, and although it was also a security department, its administrative level was one level lower. Even so, taking this step meant truly overcoming that hurdle.

"Director Fan, I hope you'll take good care of me in the future!"

Chen Guofu grinned widely, his smile almost irresistible.

The next moment, he seemed to belatedly realize the most important situation.

"Section Chief, you've been transferred. Who's going to take your place in the Public Security Section? It's not going to be Xiao Shen, is it?"

"I don't know, but I guess it's probably Xiao Shen!"

"I?!"

Shen Zhiyu raised her hand and pointed to herself.

He does have some ability, but he has only been at the steel rolling mill for a short time, and he was even mentally challenged for two months. Wouldn't it be difficult for him to gain the respect of the people if he were to take over so soon?

"In our public security section, you're the only one who's capable."

Chen Guofu was not at all dissatisfied with Shen Zhiyu's rise to prominence, because Shen Zhiyu was truly capable, and her ability to solve cases was simply phenomenal.

"Section Chief, can I do this?"

"Why not?"

Fan Zhijun patted Shen Zhiyu on the shoulder, "In our security department, who wouldn't praise your abilities?"

"Putting everything else aside, just considering what happened before, if it weren't for you, our steel mill's security department might have become infamous throughout Beijing!"

Enemy agents have infiltrated the security department and planned an attack on the armory. If it succeeds, it will be a huge disaster.

"To be honest, I think I got promoted thanks to you, kid. After all, if I hadn't taken this step, how would you have made it up to the top?"

Although Fan Zhijun was a rough and uncultured man, he wasn't completely brainless.

Fan Zhijun had thought of this when he came out of Qian Weigong's office.

Although there is no evidence, this is probably the truth.

After all, one radish, one hole!

"I was just lucky!"

Shen Zhiyu chuckled.

"Whether it's luck or what, it's all thanks to you!"

"With achievements like yours, it would be completely unreasonable not to promote you!"

"If I don't leave, you won't get promoted. I can't just transfer you away to get you promoted, can I?"

After Fan Zhijun said that, Shen Zhiyu thought about it and realized that it really made sense.

Since that's the case, Shen Zhiyu grinned and said, "Section Chief, since that's the case, shouldn't you treat me to a meal? It's not too much to ask for a meal at Donglaishun, is it?"

"Not excessive!"

"Tonight, I'm inviting Lao Zhao, Lao Peng, and the others to Donglaishun. It's on me!"

Fan Zhijun previously held the rank of section chief, and his salary was not low. He could easily afford to treat Donglaishun to a meal.

After all, the average cost per person at Donglaishun is only three or four yuan nowadays, since a plate of mutton only costs fifty cents.

Of course, even if they were to make Fan Zhijun bleed, they wouldn't go all out; they would still exercise restraint.

"Section Chief, shouldn't you call me Division Chief?"

"We'll definitely have to call, but I doubt the section chief will go!"

Although the security department staff often had private gatherings, Qian Weigong rarely participated. As the head of the security department, Qian Weigong's presence always made the others feel somewhat restrained.

……

When Fan Zhijun got off work that evening, he was indeed unable to invite Qian Weigong. So the three section chiefs of the security department, two deputy section chiefs, and several group leaders went to Donglaishun in a grand procession.

The hot pot lamb here is really good.

Shen Zhiyu had eaten here once with Ye Yingying before and thought the food was delicious, which is why she suggested coming here.

Just as Shen Zhiyu had expected, the group did not ruthlessly exploit Fan Zhijun, but stopped short of killing him.

People who lack a sense of propriety cannot fit into this group.

Although we didn't actually eat a lot, the atmosphere was still very lively as we chatted and joked around.

After the meal, Shen Zhiyu, who didn't have a bicycle, could only drag Chen Guofu along, grabbing his laborer, and take him back to the courtyard house.

Well, this can be considered a small act of willful abuse of power by the soon-to-be-appointed section chief!

In response, Shen Zhiyu successfully received a kick from Chen Guofu.

Back at the courtyard house, Shen Zhiyu saw Yan Bugui as soon as she entered.

Yan Bugui greeted Shen Zhiyu with a broad smile, saying, "Officer Shen, why are you back so late? You don't know yet, do you? Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu really have divorced!"

"Teacher Yan, let's just get a divorce. Didn't they say they wanted a divorce before?"

Shen Zhiyu really didn't think it was a big deal.

After all, he had just told Jia Dongxu to get his divorce done with Qin Huairu as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that the man would be so unfazed and get it done so quickly.

Now that Qin Huairu is divorced, it's time for him to fulfill his promise to help her find a job!

Qin Huairu wasn't very educated, but the Jia family owned a sewing machine, and she could use it to make clothes—that was her specialty!

Moreover, he had previously said that he would help Qin Huairu find a job in a garment factory.

Coincidentally, he had previously helped the clothing factory recover its stolen wages. Although his search for them might seem like a way of asking for a favor in return, who cares?

Shen Zhiyu didn't care what others thought at all.

After all, he had solved Qin Huairu's employment problem, and his goal was achieved. What others thought was meaningless.

Many people make their lives so difficult because they care too much about what others think and how they feel!
