Chapter 156

Not only does Yu Haitang have fair and tender skin, but her long legs look like two frames.

Yan Jiefang's eyes lit up.

When Yu Haitang heard that this was Yan Jiefang, an expression of surprise appeared on her face.

"Brother Jiefang, it really is you. We haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, right?"

Yan Jiefang also said happily,

"Yeah, what have you been doing these years? Why didn't you come to visit even during the New Year? I remember there seemed to be no one else at your house."

Yu Haitang sighed and said:

"My parents passed away early, and my aunt's family came from the countryside and wanted to take over my house. I didn't dare leave home for even a day."

Things like robbing houses may sound a bit unbelievable in later times, but in this era, it actually happens quite frequently and is not surprising at all.

The law is not sound, and things can get confusing whether it’s house sales or inheritance issues.

Yu Haitang was young at the time. If she hadn't had her sister Yu Li to support her, the house would have been taken away before she went to high school.

"Is there such a thing? Where is your aunt's house? Tell me, I will bring people to catch them."

Yan Jiefang said this in a boastful manner.

He does have this ability now, the management committee is there to arrest people.
Not to mention that this aunt bullied Yu Haitang, even if they did nothing, they could still capture him by finding a false reason.

"Forget it. We are family after all. Besides, they have seldom come to see me since I went to high school."

Yu Haitang said with a wry smile.

At that time, the reason why his aunt gave up the house was not because she had a change of heart, but because Yu Haitang had a more powerful suitor at the time.

It was Director Yang’s nephew, Yang Weimin.

At that time, in order to pursue Yu Haitang, Yang Weimin brought people to beat up his aunt's family and warned them not to harass Yu Haitang again.

Yu Haitang was very grateful to Yang Weimin and agreed to be his girlfriend.

But as the wind started to blow, Yu Haitang discovered that Yang Weimin's thoughts were completely different from hers. The two had different values ​​and there was no way they could be together.

It was during the day today that Haitang officially broke up with Yang Weimin.

She came to the tavern dormitory building today just to find her sister Yu Li and seek comfort.

The two stood in the middle of the compound and chatted for a while.

Yan Jiefang suddenly asked Haitang: "Haitang, do you have a partner now?"

"Hey."

Yu Haitang sighed and said, "Brother Jiefang, actually I came here today because I just broke up with my boyfriend. We have different ideas, so I came to see my sister and wanted to adjust my mood."

When Yan Jiefang heard this, he immediately became excited.

He quickly said to Haitang, "Haitang, what do you think of me?"

"How are you doing?"

Yu Haitang asked doubtfully. She didn't think about it in that direction at all.

"Oh. What else could it be? We are both single, and we have known each other since childhood. It just so happens that you have broken up with your partner now, so why don't we try to be together?"

Yu Haitang was stunned for a moment.

Although he always called Yan Jiefang brother, it was just out of politeness. After all, he was the younger brother of his sister and brother-in-law, so if you really counted him, he was indeed his brother.

However, if she considered him as a partner, Yan Jiefang was not her type at all.

Although Yang Weimin had different ideas from him, at least he was tall and handsome, his family was strong, and he himself was courageous. He dared to take his brothers to beat his aunt, which showed that he was responsible.

And this Yan Jiefang in front of me, although I haven't seen him for many years.

However, Yu Haitang vaguely remembered that when he was a child, he was always getting into trouble here or doing something wrong there.

And when he did something wrong, he didn't dare to admit it.

Yu Haitang simply disdains this kind of stupid and irresponsible man.

"Well... Brother Jiefang, we are too close. I feel a little embarrassed when you say that, so let's just forget it."

Yu Haitang's words were already very tactful, and most people could hear the rejection in her tone.

Only Yan Jiefang doesn't think so.

He smiled and said, "Haitang, you worry too much. What's there to be embarrassed about? Besides, it's good to be familiar with each other. Your sister married my brother, and you marry me. This will be a good story if it gets out. It will be great for our two families to be even closer."

"No, no, no, forget it. Brother Jiefang, I don't have any plans to find another partner for the time being."

After Yu Haitang finished speaking, he walked towards Yu Li's house as if escaping. "I'm going to look for my sister first. Brother Jiefang, you go do your thing."

When Yan Jiefang saw Yu Haitang leaving, he wanted to keep her, but she had already pushed open the door and walked in.

Yan Jiefang had no choice but to give up, thinking that since Yu Haitang had already broken up with her boyfriend, he would have plenty of opportunities to pursue her and there was no need to rush.

When he got home, Yi Zhonghai was already waiting for him in the house.

Yan Jiefang put the pig's head and wine on the table.

He smiled and said to Yi Zhonghai, "Master Yi, why are you here? Did you smell the aroma of pig head meat?"

Yi Zhonghai laughed inwardly, thinking, it’s just a little pig’s head, why would I care about this?
He came here this time to discuss with Yan Jiefang how to counterattack against Courtyard No. 40.

As for a little bit of pig head meat, he didn't even look at it.

However, he still gave Yan Jiefang some face and did not refute him.

Instead, he smiled and said, "Yes, I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Today I came to your place to get some food. I didn't expect to encounter such a good thing. Jiefang, you won't be reluctant to leave, right?"

Yan Jiefang said with a smile, "If it were someone else, I would definitely not be willing to give it up. But Master Yi, you can just eat a little."

Yi Zhonghai had cared about him before and sent him lunch boxes. It was also Yi Zhonghai who reminded him that the management committee was recruiting people this time.

Although Yan Jiefang could not say that he was grateful for this, he still appreciated his kindness.

Giving him some pig head would be considered a way of repaying him. Of course, if he gave him too much, it would mean that Yi Zhonghai was being immature.

The two sat down, found their bowls and chopsticks, and started eating and drinking.

Yi Zhonghai only took one or two bites before he spoke. "Jiefang, now that you have joined the management committee, you should think of ways to make merit and climb up. Although you are already very good now, don't forget that your brother is now the captain of the steel plant's transportation team."

"You are just a team leader. If you want to reach the level of your brother, you have to find a way to make achievements."

Yan Jiefang certainly knew this too.

Who doesn’t want to make a contribution?

Especially in a place like the Management Committee, as long as you make contributions, you can be promoted, so everyone has been like crazy these days, looking everywhere for people who can help them make contributions, and then trying every means to get them back.

But Yan Jiefang can't do that.

Like other people, they are either street urchins with a large group of brothers to help them, or at least they have family members to help them.

And what about Yan Jiefang?
He doesn't have many friends and doesn't have a good relationship with his family.

If he is asked to catch someone, will he go alone?
"Master Yi, I also want to make a contribution, but where can I arrest someone? And there is no one around me who can be used. If I go to arrest someone by myself, what if I get beaten out?"

Yan Jiefang sighed and said.

Yi Zhonghai had long realized that he was a waste, and he understood why he could say such things.

Hearing this, he did not mock him, but encouraged him:
"Jiefang, I know it's difficult for you to do it alone, so we have to think of more ways. You may not be able to accomplish ordinary achievements alone, but what if it is a relatively big achievement?"

Yan Jiefang laughed at him. "Master Yi, what are you talking about? I can't even accomplish ordinary feats by myself. I don't have the ability to accomplish great feats."

Yi Zhonghai laughed cunningly: "You don't know this. The greater the merit, the more people will want to use it to gain credit. You can't do it alone, can you find a few more people to go with you? Even if you just report it to the leader, it will be a great achievement."

When Yan Jiefang heard Yi Zhonghai's words, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes, the key is where did the great achievement come from?" Yi Zhonghai smiled sinisterly, covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered to Yan Jiefang.

"This person is far away, yet right before our eyes. Isn't Lou Xiao'e's father the biggest contributor to the daughter-in-law of the old Xu family?"

There is no need to say too much, Lou Bancheng’s name is not for nothing.

Yan Jiefang was instantly excited. "Yeah, why didn't I think of that? Isn't Lou Bancheng the biggest contributor? If I report him, I, the team leader, can be promoted to deputy director immediately. You are amazing. Lao Yi, you are really my lucky star."

Yan Jiefang spoke as he patted Yi Zhonghai on the shoulder.

It's like an elder patting a younger person on the shoulder.

This made Yi Zhonghai feel very uncomfortable, but considering that he still needed him to do things for him, Yi Zhonghai still endured it.

"Okay, Jiefang, you should hurry up and take action. It's better to act sooner rather than later. If someone else gets there first, then the chance of promotion will go to someone else, don't you think?"

Yan Jiefang nodded.

"You're right, Lao Yi, I'm giving you all these pig heads as a reward. I'm going to report Lou Xiao'e and his parents right now. Just wait for me to get promoted."

After Yan Jiefang finished speaking, he stood up, laughed and left.

Yi Zhonghai continued to sit and watched Yan Jiefang leave, feeling very satisfied.

Lou Xiao'e's family has a big fish. If they are really caught, Yan Jiefang will definitely move up to a higher level, and it will be of greater use to him at that time.

At the same time, Lou Xiao'e is Xu Damao's wife, who is Li Jiandong's woman.

While helping Yan Jiefang to make progress, we can also strike Li Jiandong at the same time.

Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?
Yan Jiefang quickly arrived at the street management committee office building, but the committee had already gone off work.

Yan Jiefang walked into the office and asked the person on duty, "Xiao Guo, do you know where our director lives?"

Xiao Guo is a regular employee of the Management Committee. How many days earlier than Yan Jiefang? He knows a little more. Wen Yan raised his head and said, "Are you asking about Director Gu or Director Huang?"

"Director Gu, where is Director Gu's home?"

Director Gu is the chief director, so of course the higher the position, the better for matters like this.

Yan Jiefang looked at Xiao Guo expectantly, waiting for his answer.

Then Xiao Guo said, "Director Gu's home is in Dongdan. There is a supply and marketing cooperative over there. Walk forward from the supply and marketing cooperative and you will see Courtyard No. 82, which is Director Gu's home."

"By the way, what do you want to talk to Director Gu about?"
After getting the information he wanted, Yan Jiefang said gratefully.

"Thank you, Xiao Guo. I just went over to take a walk. Nothing else."

Xiao Guo said,
A lot of people have come to see Director Gu recently, and most of them just want to move around, so after hearing what Yan Jiefang said, they didn't doubt it and thought it was a very normal thing.

After saying goodbye to Xiao Guo, Yan Jiefang went straight to Director Gu's house.

After arriving at the place, Yan Jiefang found that there were other guests in the Gu family. Seeing Yan Jiefang, Director Gu thought he was just visiting, so he smiled and asked him to wait for a while. After seeing the guests off, he returned and asked Yan Jiefang,
"Xiao Yan, come in and sit down. What do you want to talk to me about?"

Director Gu asked with a smile. Although Yan Jiefang had empty hands and seemed to have brought nothing, his pockets were bulging.

There are so many people walking around these days, but generally few of them carry large or small bags of things. After all, they don't lack rice, flour, peanuts or something like that, so the sensible ones usually come to give "Big Black Ten".

But this time he was wrong.
Yan Jiefang was not here to hang out, but the news he received from his visit made him much happier than the gifts he received.

Yan Jiefang said, "Director Gu, I have a major discovery that I want to report to you."

"Oh? Really? Tell me, have you done anything meritorious?"

When the owner heard what Yan Jiefang said, he became interested. There had been a lot of people visiting his house recently, and he didn't need Yan Jiefang.

However, if he can make great contributions, it will be very beneficial to him in front of the leaders.
Yan Jiefang lowered his voice and moved closer to Director Gu.

Then he said to him carefully,

"Director Gu, there is a resident in our courtyard. She is the daughter of Lou Bancheng from the north city. They live in a western-style house and have a car. You should know that national regulations do not allow private ownership of cars, but Lou Bancheng can drive. What do you think of this behavior?"

"Moreover, during the difficult years a few years ago, we couldn't even afford to eat, but his family ate lavishly every day. Isn't this out of touch with the masses?
So, I suggest that we should arrest him, give him a good scolding, and search his house, we will surely find a lot of good stuff."

Although Yan Jiefang is not good at anything, he is very good at lying and other dirty things.

Many people knew that Lou Bancheng had a car, but that was because he voluntarily handed it over to the steel mill, and the leaders above set him up as a model and rewarded him.

As for enjoying a good life during difficult times, that is even more nonsense.

Since Lou Xiao'e married into No. 40 Courtyard, although Lou Bancheng and his wife often helped him, most of the time, Lou Xiao'e was away with Xu Damao, doing hybrid rice research.

What does it mean to eat meat and fish all day long?

They don't stay in the compound often. Even if they eat fish and meat, how do you, Yan Jiefang, know about it?
And every time they come back, it is usually during the Chinese New Year.

At that time, not to mention Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e, all the other families in the yard also had plenty of fish and meat.

After all, this is Courtyard No. 40, the richest courtyard on the entire street.

However, Director Gu didn't care about all this. The trend was already very strong, especially since the establishment of the Management Committee, everyone was scrambling to make contributions.

He doesn't care what your reasons are, as long as he can find a reason to arrest someone, as long as he can make a contribution.

Sometimes there is no reason at all, but they can still arrest someone by making up a reason.

The key is to see whether this person is worth catching.

And Lou Bancheng is obviously worth it.

So when Director Guo heard what Yan Jiefang said, he became excited.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Yan, you did a good job this time, now go find Lao Huang and split up with him.

Go back to the courtyard, arrest Lou Xiaoe, and have Old Huang take people to Lou Bancheng's house to control Lou Bancheng as well. Then, make him spit out everything in the house."

"Once this is done, I will promote you to be the patrol captain."

Hearing this, Yan Jiefang was very excited.

He is just a team leader now and actually has no power at all.

The team leader of the management committee is like the lobby manager of a bank or the sales manager of some companies. It's just a nice name, but they are actually just empty talkers.

But if you are promoted to patrol captain, it will be different.

The Management Committee has several patrol teams. The captain of each patrol team is equivalent to the level of deputy chief of the police station, and the chief captain is at the same level as the chief of the police station.

If I can be promoted to patrol team captain this time, not only will I have someone to use under me, but I can also be directly transferred to a regular employee, at the cadre level.

"Yes, Director Gu. I'll go right away."

Yan Jiefang said excitedly, then turned and left.

Lao Huang was found quickly.

Huang's name is Huang Qingfa. He is the deputy director of the management committee and also the chief of the patrol team. After Yan Jiefang reported to him, Director Huang's eyes lit up and he quickly brought a large group of people to Lou Bancheng's house.

Yan Jiefang also returned to the courtyard arrogantly with three or four patrol team members.

Bistro Dormitory Building,

After Yan Jiefang came back, he knocked on Xu Damao's door.

Xu Damao opened the door and saw Yan Jiefang and the four patrolmen behind him. He asked in confusion, "Jiefang, what can I do for you?"

Yan Jiefang kicked the door open and said angrily, "Where's Lou Xiao'e? Come out."

Because of the strong winds, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e were also affected and just came back a few days ago.

It was too chaotic outside, even the director of the Agricultural Research Institute felt threatened, so he took everyone back to North City.

At this moment, Lu Xiao'e was sitting on the kang, listening to the radio.

Yan Jiefang rushed in with his men, pointed at Lou Xiao'e and said to the others, "That's her, catch her and bring her back."

The four patrol members wanted to go in and arrest people without any explanation. Xu Damao became anxious when he saw this. How could he let these people take Lou Xiaoe away?
He stepped in front of the door and yelled at several patrol members and Yan Jiefang, "Yan Jiefang, what do you want to do? Are you crazy? Lou Xiao'e is my wife, why are you arresting her for no reason?"

Lou Xiao'e was also shocked, but she didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.
