Siheyuan: Security Office of Wude

"Yes! She really did find one. Director, guess who she found as her backer?"

Bai Wanli directly picked up the notebook on the table and threw it over: "Fuck it! You know what I hate most is guessing riddles, if you don't want to tell me, get out!"

Liu Neng took the notebook and put it on the table, not daring to joke anymore: "Director, you would never have thought that the person Yu Haitang found to back him up is Yang Weimin!"

"What the hell?"

Bai Wanli's hand holding the pen trembled and almost poked a hole in the table.

"Yang Weimin lost his job because of Yu Haitang, and he still dared to hook up with Yu Haitang. He thinks eating at home is too delicious and wants to go to a labor camp for reform, right?"

Liu Neng also showed a strange expression: "Director, I don't know what this guy is thinking. Anyway, my men are keeping an eye on it, and this matter is absolutely correct. Yu Haitang can't find a backer in the factory who is willing to help her fight against Director Yang's family, and she doesn't know any leaders outside. My men followed her day by day, and found that Yu Haitang actually went to the Yang family secretly."

"When I first heard about this, I thought Yu Haitang was going to kowtow to Yang Weimin's parents and beg them to let him go. But when I heard the follow-up, I realized that I was superficial. Yu Haitang actually went straight for Yang Weimin."

"Yang Weimin had been under house arrest by his parents for a while, and he was just allowed out recently. But Yu Haitang dragged Yang Weimin to a remote grove, and started kissing him. While kissing him, he kept saying cheesy things like how much he missed Yang Weimin. Yang Weimin... I even doubt if his brain is in his crotch."

"He's the little head controlling the big head. What else did they do?"

"Not yet. After all, they met in broad daylight. Are you trying to save your life?"

Bai Wanli tapped the table with his fingers and ordered, "Keep watching them. I suspect they will do that soon. We must catch them in bed!"

"Director, they haven't even gotten married yet, how can they be so bold?"

"Yang Weimin's brain has grown into his pants. He is just a fool. What would a fool not dare to do?"

"As for Yu Haitang, she used to look down on Yang Weimin. If she goes back to find Yang Weimin, it must be because she is really desperate. Only Yang Weimin can save her in this matter. And the final decision is made by Yang Weimin's parents. If they just resume their relationship and have some affectionate actions, they will not be able to understand or compromise if they go to Yang Weimin's parents like this. They may even send Yang Weimin to another city and completely get rid of Yu Haitang."

"But if they committed adultery, Haitang would lose her virginity, but she would have a handle on the Yang family, a bargaining chip that could be used to negotiate with them."

"Yang Weimin's file has already been destroyed. If he commits adultery again... or even if Haitang is ruthless enough to accuse Yang Weimin of rape, Yang Weimin will have to spend the rest of his life in prison."

"Director, can this woman really be so cruel?"

"It's hard to say... Anyway, it's better to keep an eye on them first. With the state of this infatuated couple, they won't be able to endure it for a few more days."

"Lao Liu, how about we make a bet? If something happens to them, you lose me a pack of cigarettes."

"Okay, then if nothing happens to them within a month, Director, you will give me a pack of cigarettes."

"make a deal"

"Okay, I'll have someone keep an eye on them."

Chapter 190: Trying to build relationships, but ended up asking for trouble

The Security Department's militia training has begun. This training lasts for 20 days. It is necessary for a large group of people to master basic combat skills. At the same time, they must manage and dispatch so many people. The Security Department has a heavy burden on its shoulders.

It was also the first time for Bai Wanli to command militia training. Fortunately, the three section chiefs of the Security Department were very experienced and helped Bai Wanli share a lot of pressure.

The candidates for militia training include factory workers, ordinary young people in the city, farmers in rural communes, or militiamen from militia regiments.

Different backgrounds make these people have very different attitudes towards militia training

Those who already have stable jobs or urban hukou are generally not very enthusiastic about the training. At most, they just complete the basic training content according to the requirements of the Security Department. They don't expect to develop in this direction. They just muddle through the 20-day training and go back to work or be street urchins.

In contrast, people from the countryside are generally more enthusiastic and motivated, and perform better and more actively in many training tasks.

There is such a gap, the difference in personality between city dwellers and country dwellers is not the important reason. The key is that these people in the city, especially those who have jobs, already have a good way out in life. Most people will not try to change to a more dangerous and difficult track.

Life in the countryside is simple. These days, job opportunities in the city are very limited, and many city dwellers can only work as temporary workers. Therefore, there are very few farmers working in the city, and there is no large-scale group of migrant workers.

Life in the countryside is really difficult now. After paying the public tax for the crops grown in a year and keeping enough for one's own consumption, a wealthy family is considered rich if they can save a dozen yuan.

In the city, an ordinary temporary worker can earn more than ten yuan a month, eat rationed food, and live in a brick house. No wonder many country people are full of yearning for the city.

Therefore, many rural people are willing to seize the opportunity to fight for it. After all, the Security Department is also a formal unit. If you have a formal job in the Security Department, you can transfer your household registration to the city. The future of the whole family may be changed because of this. You are a fool not to fight for it.

The Security Department is also interested in recruiting people. After the previous personnel transfer, the Security Department has about two teams with a shortage of eight to ten people.

Bai Wanli planned to select five people with good character and performance from the militia training personnel and assign them to the Security Department, while the remaining team vacancy would be reserved for internal arrangements of the Security Department.

After all, the three section chiefs have personal connections with their deputy section chiefs and team leaders. As long as the people who are sent in are not too cowardly and do not embarrass the security department, Bai Wanli will not care too much.

After lunch, the three section chiefs gathered in Bai Wanli's office to discuss who had the best training performance today and was suitable to be recruited into the Security Department. Suddenly, the phone on Bai Wanli's desk rang.

Everyone stopped discussing, and Bai Wanli picked up the microphone.

"Hello, this is Bai Wanli, Director of the Security Department of the Steel Rolling Mill. May I ask who you are?"

"Hello, Director Bai, I am Xu Siyuan, the head of the Production Department of the Steel Pipe Factory, and my son Jinyuan is a security guard in the Security Department."

"Xu Jinyuan?"

Bai Wanli gently repeated the name, then pointed to the chair and asked the three dipping sauces to continue sitting.

They all stood up when the phone rang just now. If the content on the phone was not suitable for them to listen to, Bai Wanli would let them leave. Now it doesn't matter, just sit down.

Fang Wei knew what was going on when he heard Xu Jinyuan's name, and sat aside with a smile.

Bai Wanli said calmly: "Chief Xu, do you have any advice?"

"I don't deserve your advice, but my son's job has been transferred recently. I wonder if Director Bai can show some leniency and let him return to the Security Department. If Director Bai has any request, my family will do our best to repay him."

Xu Siyuan really came here to plead for his son.

Xu Jinyuan was kicked by Bai Wanli to a security section under the Security Department. There are less than 100 people in that security section. The factory is small, the unit is small, and it is far from the Security Department.

Although they are all doing the work of security guards, and their nominal salary has not changed (but the benefits other than salary are very different), the development prospects of the Security Department, a large unit, are not comparable to those of the Security Section.

Otherwise, why would so many people prefer to be the tail of a phoenix rather than the head of a chicken, and would rather live in a small basement in a big city than live in a big mansion in a small county town?

Isn't it because although the competition in big cities is fierce, there are also more opportunities to climb up?

Especially since Bai Wanli had just been commended by his superiors and was a recent celebrity, he was about to rise to prominence. Everyone knew that if one person became successful, all his subordinates would benefit. If Bai Wanli became successful, his subordinates would naturally benefit as well.

But at this time, Xu Jinyuan was demoted to the Security Department, which was equivalent to internal exile in the Security Department. How could Xu Siyuan not be anxious? He missed the opportunity to prosper with Bai Wanli. He was afraid that he would never have such an opportunity again in his life. So Xu Siyuan wanted to ask Bai Wanli to help his son.

But Xu Siyuan knew the former director of the Security Department, and had nothing to do with Bai Wanli. Bai Wanli said coldly:

"Xu Jinyuan's personnel transfer is an internal matter of the Security Department. There is no need for an outsider like Section Chief Xu to make decisions."

"I still have work to do, so I won't chat with Chief Xu anymore."

"Director Bai, I..."

Xu Siyuan had no face in front of Bai Wanli, and Bai Wanli had nothing good to say about this kind of person who wanted to establish a relationship right away. His tone was very serious, almost saying that Xu Siyuan wanted to influence the personnel of the Security Department, which was "crossing the line". This was a very big taboo for officials, because no official liked to have his power taken away by others.

After I finished speaking, I was too lazy to listen to Xu Siyuan's nagging and hung up the phone.

If Xu Siyuan dares to call again after being talked to this extent, Bai Wanli may have to consider how to send him to a mental hospital.

Fang Wei knew about Xu Jinyuan's situation. Liu Neng and Wang Guoqiang also understood what Bai Wanli said. Since Bai Wanli was commended by the senior leader, this young director has become a new star in the eyes of many people. Recently, there are countless people who want to come to Bai Wanli to make connections.

They were considered to be very successful, and they also encountered many people who came to give gifts to establish relationships. However, Bai Wanli, the "enlightened man", obviously encountered more similar situations.

The four of them were used to it and did not mention the phone call. They continued to discuss the candidates who performed well in the militia training. Because this was only the first day of training, the four of them only mentioned some targets that deserved attention. Who the final candidate would be would depend on their performance in the next ten days.

Chapter 191 The Lou Family's Plan

After the small meeting at noon, several section chiefs returned to their respective offices. Bai Wanli also took this opportunity to smoke a cigarette to refresh himself, as the training in the afternoon would be arduous.

But when he was halfway through smoking a cigarette, the fat man Fang Wei came in again, holding a half-smoked cigarette in his hand.

"Fang Wei, what are you doing? You're not smoking in your office, but coming here to smoke mixed cigarettes, right?"

"No, Director, the director surnamed Lou from the steel mill said he wants to meet you. Would you like to meet him?"

"A director named Lou? Lou Bancheng?"

"Yes, that's him."

Bai Wanli had no contact with the Lou family since he crossed over. Although he lived in the same yard with Lou Xiaoe, he had never even said hello to her except on the day of moving.

In terms of work, if Bai Wanli starts out as a worker, then maybe he can borrow Lou Bancheng's identity as a director of the steel mill, and the two sides may have intersections.

But Bai Wanli was in charge of the security department. If he was doing well, he didn't have to worry about Lou Bancheng's face. If he was not doing well, the affairs of the armed unit were not something he, a capitalist, could interfere with. So even if Bai Wanli encountered trouble, he could not ask Lou Bancheng for help.

As for Lou Bancheng's money, it was like waste paper to Bai Wanli, who had unlimited resources.

Bai Wanli had no desire for anything from Lou Bancheng, so he had no contact with her.

I didn't expect Lou Bancheng to come to my house today.

"What's wrong with him?"

"He said he wanted to help train the country's militia and provide us with a batch of meat and equipment."

When Bai Wanli heard this, his eyes rolled over the back of his head and went straight to his back.

"We train the troops, and he provides the money and equipment. Lou Bancheng is really bold. If he said that, in ancient times, wouldn't it be like a wealthy man asking the emperor to reward the army? He thinks his life is too long, right?!"

"Besides, why is he joining in the fun while our security department is training militia? What will people say if this gets out? People will think that my security department is incompetent and can't even prepare the soldiers and equipment for militia training, and we have to rely on a capitalist for help!"

If Lou Bancheng wanted to cooperate with Lao Yang or Lao Li, give some benefits to the workers, and let them eat more meat, then the problem would not be a big deal before the wind started.

After all, Lou Bancheng still has the title of a red capitalist.

But the Security Department is not an option. Although the Security Department's status is not as high as the military, it is also an armed unit with guns. Such a unit will never be allowed to be involved by capitalists, even before the storm. Otherwise, if the news gets out, Bai Wanli himself will be in trouble.

"Then the director means that you don't want to see me?"

"No, no, definitely not! Let him get out of here right away!"

"Wait, help me pass a message to Lou. Tell him that if he doesn't know where the line is, I will draw it for him!"

"Isn't the director's intention to divide Lou Bancheng into two parts?" Fang Wei complained in his heart, but he still followed Bai Wanli's order and went out to convey Bai Wanli's words to Lou Bancheng without any modification.

Seeing Lou Bancheng's face turn ugly, Fang Wei curled his lips in disdain and thought to himself: "You don't know your own identity, and you, a capitalist, are going to interfere in the affairs of our security department? Ridiculous!"

No matter how you whitewash it, capitalists are still unpopular these days.

As for Fang Wei, the section chief, he has a good background and has made great contributions. If a capitalist doesn't give him face, then he won't give it to him. It won't have any impact.

Lou Bancheng and Xu Siyuan were only minor waves, and they had no ability to really affect Bai Wanli.

Because of the commendation, he is now a big tree that attracts the wind. There are countless people who want to get close to him through various channels. Lou Bancheng and Xu Siyuan are just two of them. Bai Wanli can't take a loud speaker and shout "You bunch of idiots who want to get close to him, don't come." He can only wait for his "heat" to pass, or for other things to cover his "heat", and then he can resume a stable life.

Lou Bancheng came out of the steel mill and returned home with a gloomy face.
