Siheyuan: I am the seventh uncle of Banggen

Chapter 47 Jia Dongxu Drinks Maotai

Today, Zhang Dabiao continued to practice his Tianyi Heart Method in the courtyard of Chunfeng Hutong. His movements became smoother and smoother, but he did not feel any improvement. Did he choose the wrong place? Or was he too impatient? Zhang Dabiao thought for a long time. Without a master, no one could tell him the answer. He could only figure it out on his own.

Go home and eat the pig face. Let Banggeng and Jia Jingshu eat it while you watch. I like watching children eat the most. It is so cute to see them eating with oil dripping from their mouths. But I don’t like the way Zhang Cuihua and Jia Dongxu eat. They make “smacking” sounds like pigs. It is uncomfortable to hear, especially Jia Dongxu, who is such a grown-up but doesn’t know how to eat properly. He was spoiled by Zhang Cuihua.

Forget it, I'll just teach him slowly. I feel he has made some progress now. At least he has some vision, Zhang Dabao thought as he walked.

Zhang Dabao took out a piece of pork and some braised beef from the space, hung them on the handlebars, and rode towards Yard No. 95.

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Yan Bugui stopped Zhang Dabao and said, "Dabao, Dongxu was beaten. His mother applied medicated wine on him at home, and he was screaming very loudly."

"Really? Who hit him?" Zhang Dabao asked Yan Bugui.

"I heard that it was a co-worker from the factory" who had not returned from get off work yet, and the information Yan Bugui received was not accurate.

"I'll go and take a look." Zhang Dabao pushed his bicycle to the central courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard Jia Dongxu's screams.

"What's wrong with Dongxu?" Zhang Dabao pushed the door and walked in.

"Seventh uncle, you don't know, today Guo Dapiaozi from our factory molested my aunt, I went up and beat him with a lunch box, then Zhuzi came out to help me and broke Guo Dapiaozi's head, but he has three older brothers, and the two of us were also hit a few times, and finally Section Chief Xing took them all away," Jia Dongxu briefly recounted what happened.

"Dongxu's performance is really great. It really impressed everyone. Come to my house today and eat pig face to nourish you." Zhang Dabao praised Jia Dongxu.

"Pig face? I love eating pig face the most." Jia Dongxu smiled, and his face twitched, apparently because he touched the wound.

"Where are they? Are they in the security department or released?" Zhang Dabao asked Jia Dongxu twice.

"In the security department, we were severely punished. I warned Guo Dapiezi at that time not to mess with my aunt because my seventh uncle might beat him to death. But he didn't listen. He said, "Don't tell your seventh uncle, I'm not afraid of telling your sixth uncle. He also said that he would not let us go, nor would he let my aunt go. So Section Chief Xing took action against them," Jia Dongxu explained in depth.

"Dongxu performed really well. Call Zhuzi over later to eat pig face together. Big sister should go too, bring the children. Call Zhuzi's younger sister too. Don't let her cook alone. I'll go home and cut the meat," said Zhang Dabia.

"Seventh Uncle, what are you preparing? Let Zhuzi go. He is the chef," Jia Dongxu suggested.

"Isn't he injured?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"This injury is not a big deal. I'll go call him," Jia Dongxu said as he climbed up from the bed. His wound was affected and his mouth was split in pain.

"Dongxu is a child. He tears an eight-foot cloth into two pieces and makes four-foot pieces. He never forgets to eat. Who does he take after him?" Zhang Cuihua curled her lips when she saw her son's behavior.

"Big sister, can't you see this? He looks like Jia Youfu, and his personality is like you." Zhang Dabiao almost laughed out loud. Who else is he like? He's just like you, greedy and lazy.

After leaving the Jia family, Zhang Lianhua was seen coming out of the He family. She was a little embarrassed to see Zhang Dabao and Jia Dongxu. "I applied some medicine to Zhuzi and Sister Dongxu did it to him. I heard it and he screamed so hard. I'm very happy to stand up for my aunt today. I'll go buy some dishes and you can have a drink tonight," said Zhang Lianhua.

"Aunt, my seventh uncle brought a pig's face. There's nothing else available in the market right now. You don't have to go. I'll ask Zhuzi to help us cook." Jia Dongxu stopped Zhang Lianhua who wanted to go out, and then went to He's house.

He Yuzhu came out with a bruised face and nose, almost the same as Jia Dongxu.

"Brother Zhuzi, thank you very much. Can we have a drink tonight? Some good wine?" Zhang Dabao asked He Yuzhu as they walked.

"Good wine? How good? Better than Fenjiu?" He Yuzhu asked.

"How about Moutai? I brought it back from the south when I was in the army. Would you like to try it?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"I must try it. A bottle at the supply and marketing cooperative costs 5.6 yuan. And you need a wine ticket. I've seen it so many times and want to buy a bottle. The money is ready, but I just don't have the ticket," said He Yuzhu.

"What's that? Five dollars and sixty cents a bottle." Zhang Cuihua also followed, holding her child.

"Moutai is delicious. I haven't tried it yet." Jia Dongxu smacked his lips unconsciously.

Zhang Dabao went into the house and took out two bottles of Moutai liquor. He Yuzhu went to the kitchen. Banggeng was playing games with Jia Jingshu. Zhang Cuihua was watching with the child in her arms. Jia Dongxu's eyes were fixed on the Moutai liquor and he was drooling.

"Dongxu, are you feeling sick? I'll give you and Brother Zhuzi a bottle each later. Go home and take good care of it. You can even hug each other and sleep. Now wipe your mouth first." When Zhang Dabao saw his nephew's look, he laughed out loud. Damn, Jia Dongxu really looked like a baby over 300 months old.

"Da Biao, do you want steamed buns or rice?" the second sister came over and asked.

"Rice, it takes too long to steam buns, make more." Zhang Dabao is a little out of tune with people nowadays when it comes to eating. It is also because there are a lot of supplies in the space, so he never feels sorry for others coming to his house for dinner. On the contrary, he is happy.

Qin Huairu also came back from get off work and went to help in the kitchen. Huang Xinsheng also came back before dinner.

"Brother, do you want me to use some more tricks on them?" Huang Xinsheng made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"No, nothing can happen in the Security Department. Find out where they live and how many people are in their family. They can't stay in the Security Department for a few days." Zhang Dabao rejected Huang Xinsheng's method and put forward new requirements.

"Okay, let me know when you take action." Huang Xinsheng knew Zhang Dabao's character and he was never merciful to his enemies.

"There's no need for you. Go wash your hands. We have Moutai today. Dongxu drinks without counting." Zhang Dabao rejected Huang Xinsheng again.

"What Moutai? I have to go over there quickly." Huang Xinsheng washed his hands and came to the table.

"Is Moutai really that delicious? Let me try it." Zhang Cuihua took her son's glass and took a sip, then coughed violently twice and spit it out. "It's not delicious at all, and it's so expensive. Are you sick?"

"Mom, you're so wasteful." Zhang Cuihua drank a quarter of the glass of wine and even vomited it. The distressed Jia Dongxu almost lay on the ground and drank the wine his mother vomited.

"Don't be so fucking disgusting. Didn't I say I would give you a bottle?" Seeing Jia Dongxu's look, Zhang Dabiao slapped him in anger.

Zhang Dabao kept his promise. After the meal, he took out three bottles of Moutai and gave one bottle to each of the three people. Jia Dongxu put it directly in his arms, and He Yuzhu also ran back home and hid it after getting the wine.

Chapter 48: Xiaozhi Alley

Jia Dongxu really slept with the Moutai for a whole night, and the first thing he did when he woke up the next morning was to hide the wine.

"Damn it, the things on the table" Zhang Cuihua heard the sound of her son hiding something before she got up. She got up too early and was in a bad mood, so she started scolding her son as soon as she got up.

"Mom, let's wait until we have guests. I'm afraid I won't be able to help but drink when I see you. The wine is too expensive and I want to save it," said Jia Dongxu.

"What distinguished guest? The son-in-law is the distinguished guest. Let's wait until Xiaodang gets married before drinking," Zhang Cuihua said casually.

"It will take another 20 years for Xiaodang to get married? That's too long. Why not wait until Xiaodang's birthday?" Jia Dongxu said.

"Wait a minute, you bastard. She is more than ten months old now, and her first birthday has to be celebrated in advance. It's only a month away. Is this what you mean by keeping her? You bastard." Zhang Cuihua got out of bed and started beating her son.

"Mom, it hurts, the wound hasn't healed yet." Jia Dongxu was beaten out of the house.

"Brother Dongxu, what's going on? Are you playing games with Aunt Jia so early in the morning?" Liu Guangfu was washing up at the sink in the middle courtyard.

"Ah, Guangfu," Jia Dongxu replied vaguely.

After breakfast, Jia Dongxu, He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai went to work together.

"Dongxu, did your mother get angry again early in the morning?" Yi Zhonghai asked.

"No, my seventh uncle gave me a bottle of wine yesterday. I hid it and woke up my mother," Jia Dongxu explained.

"Can you still keep the wine?" Yi Zhonghai knew his apprentice's character very well.

"This is good wine. Of course I have to hide it. I can't afford it myself. I will take it out and drink it when I really want to drink it," Jia Dongxu said with an intoxicated look on his face.

"What kind of good wine is this? Is it that serious?" Yi Zhonghai was a little unconvinced.

"Uncle, it's Moutai liquor. He gave me a bottle with a big label and I hid it. It's five dollars and sixty cents a bottle, and you need a ticket to buy it," He Yuzhu said mysteriously.

"Moutai is really a good thing. Life with big brands is so good. You can't deny it," Yi Zhonghai said with a sigh.

"This was brought by my seventh uncle when he retired from the army in Yunnan. Moutai is produced there," said Jia Dongxu.

"What's wrong with your ears? The big label refers to the south. Moutai is produced in Guizhou, not Yunnan? It says Guizhou Moutai on it." He Yuzhu directly despised Jia Dongxu.

"Guizhou? I didn't see it clearly." Jia Dongxu felt a little embarrassed.

After getting up, Zhang Dabao brought two bottles of red wine and two packs of cigarettes to the security department of the steel rolling mill, and said, "Uncle Xing, thank you for what you did yesterday."

"Dabia, take the things back. There's nothing to thank you for. We are not outsiders." Xing Baoguo was very enthusiastic when he saw Zhang Dabia.

"Uncle Xing, this is not for you. The wine is for your aunt, and the cigarettes are for my brothers." Zhang Dabao pushed the things over again.

"You are just being polite, Xiao Liu. These are the cigarettes given to me by Zhang Lianhua's younger brother, Zhang Dabao, who came yesterday. I shared them with my brothers. By the way, Dabao is Director Li's nephew." Xing Baoguo called in the security officer Liu Wei from the door and gave him two packs of cigarettes.

"Thank you Dabiao, thank you Section Chief." Secretary Liu took the things and went outside to the security personnel on duty. He explained that these were brought by Zhang Lianhua's younger brother and thanked the brothers for their help. Zhang Dabiao is the nephew of Deputy Director Li Huaide.

The comrades from the Security Section expressed their gratitude for the gifts that Zhang Dabao brought. After smoking a cigarette, they went to the confinement room to train the Guo brothers. Xing Baoguo, who was in the Security Section Chief's office, heard the Guo brothers' cries.

"Uncle Xing, who are the Guo brothers? Why do they speak so arrogantly?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"You little gangster, your family is from this area. All five of your brothers work in the factory. You have many sons and nephews at home, and you hang out with a bunch of unemployed vagrants in society every day. I will make sure that he will not be in good shape in the future," said Xing Baoguo.

"I thought it was some gangster. I was shocked," said Zhang Dabao.

"Do the mafia still exist now? The criminals have been whitewashed. Now it's a new country, there is room for these people to survive. If you have any problems, just come and tell me. If they commit any more crimes, I will just shoot them." Xing Baoguo spoke with confidence, because the security chief in the factory is so powerful now. He has people, guns, and cars, which is much better than the police station. The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Dabiao learned the information of the Guo family. He said goodbye to Xing Baoguo and left the steel mill. He went to the door of Guo Qinhai's house and left two crows. Now Zhang Dabiao can synchronize his vision with the crows, but it can't last for a long time. If it lasts for a long time, his head will hurt badly. His mental strength has not reached that high level yet.

Five days later, the Guo brothers were released, and Huang Xinsheng told Zhang Dabao immediately.

"Brother, I must take revenge." After coming out, the Guo brothers came to Guo Dapiezi's house. His wife had died long ago and he only had one son in the family. It was convenient for the Guo family to talk about any matter at his house.

"Fourth brother, this Jia Dongxu has a relationship with Director Li, we can't afford to offend him," Boss Guo advised his younger brother.

"Brother, do we have to help him in the factory? I know his family background. I'll recover from my injuries and take a few brothers to Yard 95 to kill Jia Dongxu and He Yuzhu and deal with that little girl Zhang Lianhua. I'll not be a human being until I take revenge," said Guo Dapiezi.

"The risk is too great. This is a large compound with a lot of people. Can we kill them all? Lao Si, you don't use your brain when you do things," said Boss Guo.

"Brother is right. We can intercept them when they get off work. If that old bastard Yi Zhonghai follows them, we can intercept him as well and tie him up to our place. Aren't we the ones who have the final say on everything?" said Guo Laoer.

"What Second Brother said makes sense. We can ambush in Xiaozhi Hutong on a cloudy day when there will be fewer people on the streets." Guo Laosan also began to perfect the action plan.

All of this was heard by a crow on the roof and synchronized with Zhang Dabao's ears.

After hearing their plan, Zhang Dabiao wanted to go to the site to take a look so that he could prepare in advance. So that night, he jumped out of the wall and went to where Guo Dapiezi lived.

Among the letters received from Brother Hai last time, one also mentioned Xiaozhi Hutong. Zhang Dabao wanted to take this opportunity to go there and take a look.

Chapter 49: Discovering a Machine Gun

Xiaozhi Hutong is very close to Chunfeng Hutong, less than 500 meters away, and is also under the management of Hongxing Street. However, Xiaozhi Hutong is very short, only meters, and is connected to two streets on both sides. There is a turn in the middle of the alley, which means that once you pass the middle of the alley, you can't see what's going on over there from the street. The next unit on the left seems to be a printing factory, which is run by the street office. Since there are not many printing tasks, there are not many workers. There are three households on the left. There is a water tower in the printing factory that supplies tap water. You can see both ends of the alley from the water tower.

The place chosen by Guo Laosan was good, it was a good place to ambush and rob people. If he prepared a car on another street and got a dozen people, it would be difficult for Jia Dongxu, He Yuzhu and Zhang Lianhua to escape.

Zhang Dabiao went to Guo Qinhai's home from Xiaozhi Hutong. It was less than 1000 meters away. If he ran fast, he could get here in a few minutes. Zhang Dabiao looked at the printing factory and saw that there was no one there. He climbed over the wall and came to the water tower. The water tower was about seven or eight meters above the ground. There was a cement tank on top, which was used to store water. There was a parapet about one meter outside, which was used to protect the workers. Seeing this, Zhang Dabiao also had an idea. Don't you like ambushes? I will ambush on the water tower. There are two long guns in the space, more than meters away from the entrance of the alley. Guo Qinhai, you are dead.

Zhang Dahai had an action plan in mind, and then he thought of the contents of Hai Ge's letter. The third house on the left side of Xiaozhi Hutong, which is the one at the street corner, did not say who lived there, nor did it mention their identities. It just mentioned this place. Since he was already there, Zhang Dabao wanted to go over and take a look.

He first commanded a crow to fly over and checked to see if there was anyone in the yard. If there was anyone, they should be asleep at this time. Zhang Dabao came to the alley and after a few jumps, entered the third empty yard.

After listening to each room, no one lived here. Could this be Hai Ge's safe house? Zhang Dabiao entered the room with doubts and began to search.

Hard work pays off. Zhang Dabao discovered a darkroom in the room on the easternmost side of the north house. If he hadn't been sensitive and noticed that the walls inside and outside the house were of different thicknesses, he would have almost missed it. The secret door was in the corner under the window. Looking at the spider web, it was clear that no one had been here for at least two or three years.

After opening the secret door, Zhang Dabao took out a flashlight from the space and shone it around. The space was not big, but there were a lot of things, all of which were ammunition. It seemed that this place should be a material storage area. It had not been used because there had been no action for a long time, or the person in charge was arrested, or Hai Ge and his men had come to look for it, but the place where the things were hidden was too hidden and they couldn't find them. There were actually two radios, two pheasant necks, two boxes of formal rifles, two boxes of pistols, some bullets, and two boxes of grenades.

This is fucking prepared for ***, collect it for them, Zhang Dabao put the thing into the space.
