"Let me ask someone again, ask more people? Or do you just want the textile factory?" Lei Huanian asked Zhang Dabao.

"Ask a few more. It's okay if they're a little more expensive. This time I sold ten donkeys to the factory," said Zhang Dabao.

Lei Huanian went out and told a young man, and the young man left.

Zhang Dabao said that he had lunch at Lei Huanian's house. Due to his liver problem, his diet was very light, and Zhang Dabao ate quite well.

While eating, the person sent by Lei Huanian came back and handed Lei Huanian a note.

"Da Biao, the position in the textile factory has been taken by someone else. Here are a few positions picked by Xiao Li. Would you like to take a look?" Lei Huanian handed the note to Zhang Da Biao.

Zhang Dabiao took the note and looked at it. It was a teacher from Hongxing Primary School, a worker from the recycling station of Dongjiao Subdistrict Office, a statistician from the bakery, a canteen worker from the steel mill...

"Uncle Lei, let's take this bakery. Ask Brother Li how much it costs. I'm bringing it with me," said Zhang Dabao. He had seen this factory before. It was less than 500 meters away from the mining machinery factory and very close to Yu Li's small courtyard.

"Xiao Li..." Lei Huanian called out.

Zhang Dabao gave Xiao Li 600 yuan, and an hour later, Xiao Li brought the job recruitment form.

After Zhang Dabao received the job application form, he stood up and said goodbye. It was still possible to go to the bakery at this time.

Yu Li was not in her own courtyard. She now lived in a small courtyard with Yu Haitang. After buying a house, she returned home the next day. Her mother scolded her severely, not because she did not come home at night, but because she did not do housework. At the end of the scolding, she told her to get out, so Yu Li went back.

"You're here?" Yu Li was very happy when she saw Zhang Dabao.

"I came to see you and ask about your job. You work in a bakery as a statistician," said Zhang Dabao.

"Of course it's true. What good would it do to lie to you? I've got the recruitment form and I'll report now," said Zhang Dabao.

Yu Li, who was confused, was taken to the bakery. The procedures were completed quickly. After that, the comrades from the personnel department asked her to come to work on Monday. At that time, the comrades from the personnel department would send her to the workshop office and tell her what she needed to bring to work.

After leaving the bakery, Yu Li kept crying. It had been four years since she graduated from junior high school and she still hadn't found a job. She had suffered all kinds of cold words at home, but she didn't expect that the job would come to her.

After returning to Yu Haitang's courtyard, Zhang Dabao hugged Yu Li in his arms and let her cry freely.

"Finding a job is such a big deal, shall we celebrate in the evening?" Zhang Dabao asked Yu Li.

Yu Li thought of something and her face turned red, but she nodded in agreement. So the two of them prepared the meal, and when Yu Haitang came back from get off work, the meal was ready.

"Your work has been arranged too, that's great." Yu Haitang pounced on Zhang Dabao and kissed him.

The result was that dinner was more than an hour late. The three of them fought over dinner and then added another hour to help with digestion.

After the two fell asleep, Zhang Dabao returned to Chunfeng Hutong. He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu would come early the next morning, so he had to wait for them at home.

He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu arrived at five in the morning, and Zhang Dabao also helped. They killed the donkey, skinned it, collected the offal, and cooked the meat. It was not until nine o'clock that the three of them took a breath and ate something.

Then, Jia Dongxu started kneading the dough, while He Yuzhu was preparing other ingredients. Zhang Dayang and his brothers and nephews came first. At around ten o'clock, Zhang Cuihua, Zhang Lianhua, He Yushui, Qin Jingru and their children came, along with Huang Xinsheng, Xu Damao, Lou Xiaoe, Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian. They were busy chopping wood, boiling water, helping Jia Dongxu and He Yuzhu cut vegetables.

At eleven o'clock, Li Huaide and Yang Weihua came, Yu Sinian came with his whole family, and Jide Nian, Lin Hua, Lei Huanian and the three brothers of the Geng family all came.

At half past eleven, Qiao Yongqian brought Huang Ruofan, along with a man and a woman.

"Da Biao, this is Uncle Zhang Weihua and Aunt Liu, the matchmaker between me and your sister-in-law," Qiao Yongqian introduced.

"Comrade Da Biao, I'm sorry for coming here uninvited," Zhang Weihua apologized repeatedly.

"Uncle Zhang, you introduced me to such a good sister-in-law. I can't thank you enough. My uncle Ken and the others are in the room. Let's go in and talk." Zhang Dabao welcomed him in.

"Yongqian told me that Lao Li was coming, so we came. Huaide and I are old friends. I can go in by myself. You don't have to worry about us," said Zhang Weihua.

"Uncle Zhang, please don't mind if I can't take good care of you." When Zhang Dabao heard that he knew Li Huaide, he felt that it was really great.

"Uncle Zhang introduced your sister-in-law to you because of your situation?" Qiao Yongqian said to Zhang Dabao.

"What about my business? This seems to be the first time I meet this Uncle Zhang." Zhang Dabao was a little confused.

"A man named Yan in your hospital reported you, and Uncle Zhang went to investigate. He was the deputy director of the district discipline inspection commission, and is now the director. He told my mother about you at the street office, and became happier and happier as he talked, and he introduced his niece to me," Qiao Yongqian said with a smile.

Huang Ruofan pinched Qiao Yongqian several times after hearing this.

At this time, Zhang Weihua and Cao Lianbiao also came. Zhang Dabao didn't care about his cousin and went to greet them.

Niu Kewu, Hu Kexue, You Zhiyong and Xing Baoguo should be the last ones to arrive. They should have come after work. They also knew that the factory director was coming to dinner today, so it would be inappropriate for them to come too early.

"Dabao, I heard that someone is causing trouble today," Xing Baoguo said to Zhang Dabao after entering the yard.

Chapter 199: Liu Haizhong strikes again

Liu Haizhong got up early in the morning and told Yang Weimin the news he heard last night.

"Old Liu, are you saying that the donkey that Zhang Dabao is going to eat today was paid for by the factory?" Yang Weimin asked.

"Of course he is. Who would be willing to spend their own money to buy a donkey to eat? Zhang Dabao is not a fool. How old is he? He became the section chief. It was because he spent the factory's money to purchase things and shared it with Li Huaide. Li Huaide did it for him." Liu Haizhong had thought about these things countless times in his mind, so he spoke very logically.

Yang Weimin didn't quite understand why Zhang Dashi could become a section chief at the age of 21, but after hearing what Liu Haizhong said, he felt that it made a lot of sense.

"Old Liu, let's take down this borer today and restore order to the steel mill," Yang Weimin said righteously.

"Secretary Yang, the two of us can't do it. Zhang Dabao is very good at fighting. If we go there, what if he refuses to plead guilty? He can knock us down in just a few moves. He has practiced martial arts," Liu Haizhong suggested.

"He dares to hit me?" Yang Weimin pointed at his chest.

"I'm still the second boss in the hospital. Zhang Dabao has beaten me several times. He's not smart enough," Liu Haizhong explained.

"Okay, I'll call two people. I'll call my classmate Liang Gang from the police station. His father Liang Feigang has just become the deputy director of the Hongxing Police Station. Then I'll call my cousin Yang Weixing from the district disciplinary inspection commission. Zhang Dabao dared to beat people and my classmate shot him. My cousin is a cadre of the district disciplinary inspection commission. If not, we can arrest Li Huaide as well," said Yang Weimin.

"Good idea," Liu Haizhong praised Yang Weimin using his limited vocabulary.

In order to boost his own momentum, Yang Weimin called a few young men from the factory and told them that he had received instructions from his brother, the factory director Yang Weihua, to take down the two parasites in the factory.

By the time Yang Weimin and Liu Haizhong finished contacting their people, it was almost eleven o'clock. When they arrived at Chunfeng Hutong, the three large tables of guests in the courtyard had just been seated. As there were not enough tables, He Yushui, Qin Huairu, Qin Jingru and others did not have a seat yet. Of course, they could not sit down either, and they were busy serving the dishes.

Liu Haizhong took the lead and kicked open the door of No. 10 Chunfeng Hutong.

"Zhang Dabao, your story has been exposed," Liu Haizhong said after he entered the room. The sound of his violent kick on the door made the originally noisy yard quiet.

"Liu Haizhong, did you eat shit?" Zhang Dabao was pouring wine for someone. When he saw Liu Haizhong kicking the door, he was a little confused.

"Zhang Dabao, you and Li Huaide defrauded the factory's funds and donkeys. We have already found out. Director Yang ordered us to come and arrest you," said Liu Haizhong.

"Liu Haizhong, is there something else about me?" Li Huaide stood up after hearing this, "Tell me, how did Zhang Dabao and I defraud the factory's funds? Of course, there is also this donkey that we ate."

"Li Huaide, even though you are the deputy factory director, I am not afraid of you. I will follow the arrangements of Factory Director Yang." Liu Haizhong was shocked when he saw Li Huaide, but then he thought that he had Yang Weimin as his backer, so why should he be afraid of you, a mere deputy factory director.

"You don't have to be afraid of me, tell me the situation," said Li Huaide.

"Where does the donkey you eat come from?" Liu Haizhong asked.

"What do you think?" Li Huaide did not answer Liu Haizhong's question, but asked a question in return.

"Of course it belongs to the factory. The factory spent money and you let Zhang Dabao bring it here to kill it. You are eating it with your mouth full of oil, but you have the nerve to swallow it. This is the blood and sweat of our employees," said Liu Haizhong.

When Li Huaide heard this, he was speechless. "Are you guessing?"

"I'm telling the truth," Liu Haizhong became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Li Huaide, I'm Yang Weixing from the District Commission for Discipline Inspection. Please explain yourself. If you don't, the comrades from the police station will take you away," said Yang Weixing from the District Commission for Discipline Inspection.

"Director, is this what you mean? If you have any opinions, just say it directly. Why send two idiots?" Li Huaide said to Yang Weihua who had a confused look on his face.

Yang Weihua was so embarrassed that he almost dug out a three-bedroom apartment with his feet. He stood up and said, "Liu Haizhong, when did I give you the order?"

When Liu Haizhong saw that it was the factory director Yang Weihua, he was so excited that he almost jumped up.

"Director, don't worry, we will never let Li Huaide and Zhang Dabao go," Liu Haizhong said excitedly.

"Fuck you, Liu Haizhong, let me ask you, who asked you to come here, you bastard, you ****" Yang Weihua cursed directly.

"Director, it's not..., it's..." Liu Haizhong didn't know what to say in the face of Yang Weihua's questioning.

"You bastard, when did I give you the order? Tell me now." Yang Weihua was so angry that he almost exploded. Liu Haizhong, what happened to all the people at the scene? Most of them were his subordinates, but there were also several people from outside, from the district government, the municipal government, the army, the post office, and the hospital. How the hell do you want me to be a human being? If looks could kill, Liu Haizhong would have been chopped into pulp by Yang Weihua's eyes.

Liu Haizhong was unable to utter a word and could only look back at Yang Weihua, but Yang Weihua lowered his head even lower than him.

"Yang Weixing, can you represent the district discipline inspection commission? Who do you think you are? Who gave you the authority to lead a deputy factory director at the division level?" Zhang Weihua stood up and asked his subordinate Yang Weixing.

"Director, I..." Yang Weixing certainly did not have any authorization. He just wanted to show off. He did not expect that when he showed off, his master was also here.

"Yang Weixing, on behalf of the district discipline inspection commission, I announce to you that you have been suspended. Go home and undergo inspection. Get out of here now," said Zhang Weihua.

Yang Weixing wanted to explain, but when he saw Zhang Weihua's face was as black as charcoal, he said nothing and just left.

"Xiao Liang, is he here for dinner?" Zhang Weihua also saw Liang Gang from his police station and asked.

"No, Chief. I just happened to pass by here and heard someone making a noise, so I came over to take a look. It was this bastard who was making a lot of noise and kicking someone's door. This is intentional damage to other people's property. He should be arrested and punished." Liang Gang saw that something was wrong.

"You're right. We just need to enforce the law strictly. Xiao Liang, we can't wrongly accuse a good person, nor can we let a bad person go," Zhang Weihua emphasized when he mentioned the bad people.

"Chief, I will handle this impartially," Liang Gang said, then he kicked Liu Haizhong to the ground and handcuffed him.

"Secretary Yang..." Liu Haizhong asked Yang Weimin for help.

"Comrade Liang Gang, let me help you catch the bad guys." Yang Weimin punched Liu Haizhong on the mouth, and he and Liang Gang held Liu Haizhong up. Together with several people from the factory, they took Liu Haizhong to the police station.

"How did the conflicts between comrades arise? It was because of these self-righteous people," Yang Weihua said. "Huaide and I just had differences in business ideas. I am more conservative due to my age, while Huaide is younger and more radical. This is a normal thing between comrades. But when it comes to the grassroots, they have turned it into this," Yang Weihua said self-deprecatingly.

"There are a lot of things like this..." Everyone talked at once, adding another topic to the already lively banquet.

Chapter 18 No. Goldfish Alley

As Zhang Dabao's uncle, Li Huaide naturally had to accompany these leaders. He also saw what happened just now. It was Yang Weimin and Yang Weixing who acted on their own initiative. Yang Weihua really didn't know. Because Yang Weihua didn't need to do this now. It would not benefit him at all. Besides, he didn't dare to do it. He was just a subordinate of Shi Kejun, and his father-in-law and cousin-in-law Qiao Yongqian were both deputy ministerial leaders like Shi Kejun.

Li Huaide is very satisfied with Zhang Dabiao now. He is capable and can handle things well. Who doesn't like such a junior? But Yang Weihua's two cousins ​​are different. They are blindly making decisions. This has made Old Yang lose a lot.

"Old Yang, you are the master here too. Don't be disgusted by those two things. Come, have a drink with your brothers," Li Huaide called out to Yang Weihua.

The other table was occupied by the Zhang brothers and sisters. Zhang Cuihua was able to take care of her brother and nephew all by herself. Of course, He Yuzhu and Jia Dongxu were also at this table.

Hu Kexue, You Zhiyong, Niu Kewu, Huang Xinsheng, Xing Baoguo, Cao Lianbiao, Qiao Yongqian and his wife, Lin Hua, Yu Xiurui and others formed the third table. This table was the most lively and everyone drank to their heart's content.

He Yushui and the children were eating in the kitchen. Four or five children came today. Before the meal, each child ate more than two donkey meat hot pots. They were full early and ran back and forth in the yard.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the banquet ended. Zhang Dabao gave each guest two pounds of donkey meat. When the guests left, Zhang Dabao kept Zhang Weihua and Cao Lianbiao.

"Uncle Zhang, Brother Cao, you can't drink enough. Do you think the wine is bad?" Zhang Dabao teased when he saw that the two men were not drunk too much.

"No matter how much we drink with them, they seem to be risking their lives. Who can stand it? What if we eat such delicious donkey meat and then drink too much and vomit?" Zhang Weihua said.

"That makes sense, Uncle Zhang. There is something I need to tell you. My fourth brother Zhang Dayang, the one leaning against the wall, told me that he encountered a problem while delivering goods. There was a family who received coal twice a month and often ate meat. He was a worker in a textile factory," Zhang Dabao said to the two of them after thinking for a moment.

Professional sensitivity told Zhang Weihua that this matter was not simple, "Da Biao, wait a moment, I need to wash my face."
