Spring Thunder Chapter 0263 House Fight
Zhang Yu is no ordinary person. At the evening banquet, he behaved in a graceful and well-mannered manner, which made Xian Yaodong's old face bloom with joy, like a pear blossom overshadowing a crabapple.
After drinking a few more glasses, when he walked out of Xian Yaodong's house, a gust of wind blew in from the west, which made Nan Yi shiver and he couldn't help but turn up his collar.
"Nan Yi, what should we do?"
Missing the others, Xian Yaohua stood next to Nan Yi.
"Let's do it."
"You can't do anything?" Xian Yaohua said disappointedly.
"I mean to handle it cold, to handle it cold, not to mix it cold."
"How do you handle it coldly?"
"The spouses and children of village committee members are not allowed to hold important positions in village enterprises. In fact, they should not work in village enterprises, no matter how high or low their positions are. Let them find their own way."
"I understand. I'll go back and tell your aunt to stop working in the garment factory."
Xian Yaohua understood what Nan Yi meant. As long as Zhang Yu's access to the core circle of the village was blocked, no matter how much trouble he could cause, he would not be able to cause any big trouble.
"Uncle Yaohua, if the situation is not right, just sideline Uncle Xian. It's not easy for Wenchangwei to get to where it is today, don't let the good situation be ruined."
"I know. When you didn't come back, I and a few other people felt that this matter was not right. Zhang Yu is too young. What can he do to Yaodong?"
"Because he's old, and he won't live for many years." Nan Yi said angrily: "Wenchangwei only accepts children with the surname Xian. The surname must be Xian from the root."
"Okay, I'll let everyone know tomorrow."
"As for Xian Yaotang's matter, it all depends on Auntie and Wei Zhong's opinions. It's impossible not to investigate. If they don't want to investigate Xian Yaotang, then Auntie should bear the blame, and she should be fired on the spot and her shares should be cleared as well."
Xian Yaotang really cannot be let off easily, otherwise, countless people will use him as an example and a shield.
"Why should I punish Xian Yaotang so severely when he is completely innocent?"
You will hear this sentence many times in the future.
A thousand-mile long dam can be breached by a single ant hole, so we have to be on high alert.
"I'll discuss it with my uncle."
"Um."
After talking with Xian Yaohua, Nan Yi returned to Nan’s house and set off for the capital the next day.
After arriving in the capital, he did not go directly back to the old house, but went to take a look at Duanjin Tower.
It wasn't time for dinner yet, but there were already seven or eight tables occupied in the hall. Nan Yi took a look and saw at least three dishes on each table, so it looked like business was pretty good.
After looking for a while, Nan Yi walked towards the back kitchen, but a waiter stopped him and said, "Comrade, the kitchen is in the back and the toilet is on the other side."
"I don't want to go to the toilet. I want to find your Master Pang."
"Then wait here for a moment. I'll go and order it for you. Outsiders are not allowed in the kitchen."
"Okay, thank you for your help then."
Nan Yi stood there and watched the waiter walk towards the kitchen.
Apart from Pang Erzhu, Nan Yi didn't know anyone else in Duanjinlou. During the preparation period, Ueto Masami was in charge. Later, she withdrew and the matter was handed over to Liu Zhen. He never asked about it and didn't know who hired these waiters.
He doesn't care because Nan Yi has never regarded Duanjinlou as his own property. As long as he doesn't have to put any more money into it, he doesn't care how much he earns.
Cut metal, cut metal. Brothers working together can cut metal.
Duanjin Tower is a magic mirror. Whether it is a human or a ghost, it all depends on Nan Tieli himself.
If he is a human, he has assets worth hundreds of millions; if he is a ghost, haha, Duanjinlou is a collective enterprise, and every penny in its account is public funds.
He is neither a human nor a ghost. If he is a waste, it cannot be blamed on Nan Yi. You can give him a helping hand, but there is no reason in the world for a younger brother to support his older brother with all his limbs intact. You can't ask him to give him living expenses every year, right?
"Boss, why are you here?"
Pang Erzhu walked out of the kitchen and when he saw Nan Yi, he smiled and walked over quickly.
He was very happy working in Duanjinlou. He earned a lot of money and there was no mess involved. He paid several hundred yuan to his family for household expenses every month and received a large dividend at the end of the year. The tigress in his family also turned into gentle and considerate young wives.
As soon as he got home, the three soups were served. He washed his face first, and he didn't have to do it himself, because his wife would help him. Then he had a cup of tea, some snacks and dried fruits, and he opened the opera box, collapsed in a chair, listened to the opera, and drank tea, feeling very happy.
This is not the end yet. His wife will soon come over with a basin of warm water, help him take off his shoes and socks, and soak his feet properly.
After the three soups were finished, she would howl occasionally. Unlike the "coward" and "widow" in the past, she was now so gentle, "You must be tired during the day. I will stew an old hen for you tomorrow to nourish you."
Wow, what a beautiful day.
Who gave him this good life? Wasn't it the person standing in front of him?
"Don't call me boss. We are a collective restaurant in the village. I am just the person in charge. How is business?"
"It's great. I'm busy from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., and from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. before I close the stall. Old... Chief Nan, would you like to take a look at the account book?"
Since you don’t want to be called boss, just call me section chief.
"I won't look at the account book. I'm here to let you know that there will be new people coming to the store soon. No matter what they want to do, just let them do whatever they want and just watch everything. If there is any loss, don't worry, I will make it up to you later."
"Chief Nan, the one coming is the village chief's son?"
"No, my eldest brother and his wife, and maybe my mother. You don't need to care about their identities, just do your own thing. It will take at most half a year, just bear with it and it will be over."
Although the benefits of the second chemical industry are still good, Nan Tieli is just an ordinary employee in the workshop, and it doesn't matter whether he keeps his iron rice bowl or not. As for Yi Jinru, she is already over 45 years old and it is time for her to retire.
The two of them can stay in the restaurant, and Jin Yan can come over during her free time.
When Pang Erzhu heard this, he felt sick. It had only been a short time since he had enjoyed such a comfortable life, and now he had to put a Buddha on his head?
Nan Yi knew that Pang Erzhu would definitely think wrongly, so he quickly said, "This store is handed over to you to take charge of, so it is your responsibility. Every family has its own problems, and you will understand later. I said, it will only be half a year, and it will be over quickly."
"Ohhh, I see."
Pang Erzhu seemed to understand, but he vaguely grasped something. After all the turmoil in the previous ten years, it was rare for the brothers in this slum to be harmonious. Add to that the messy issues such as the house, who would take over the job, and the household allowance, and the brothers were rarely respectful to each other.
"I'll ask him to get some ingredients this afternoon. Just remember to pay the price." Nan Yi pointed at the tiger cub and said.
"Okay, okay."
After leaving Duanjin Building, Nan Yi went to the grocery store and department store, bought a lot of things, and then went to the Erhua Family Compound, ready to listen to the sacred "Bie Duzi" education.
When she arrived at the gate of the family compound, she held her head and chest high, lifted her hips, and tightened her anus, muttering "one, one, two, one, two, three, four" to herself, and walked in at a goose-step. A dog jumped out from the opposite side, holding a fan in its mouth. It glanced at Nan Yi with disdain, then walked towards one direction with an elegant pace.
Nan Yi's gaze first stayed on the dog's tail, then to the dog's head, and then extended downwards. The direction the dog's head was pointing in, wasn't that the factory director's home?
Nan Yi was still wondering whose dog could be trained to be so well behaved and so temperamental, so it was no wonder that it was the factory director's.
Continuing the march, we passed two old ladies who were under 50 years old. They were discussing the price of pork. One said that the price of pork had gone up again, and the other said that spare ribs were only 88 cents.
When they saw Nan Yi, they immediately threw the pork aside and started talking about whose child this was.
"This boy is really handsome, I've never seen him before, do you know who he is?"
"You don't even remember him? The youngest son of Engineer Nan, the troublemaker. Didn't he go to the countryside two years ago? I heard he never came back..."
I walked up the stairs without knocking. Yi Jinru was just opening the door and coming out, holding Nan Ruochan's hand.
"Oh, the distinguished guest is here, please come in."
As always, Yi Jinru's words were full of sarcasm.
Nan Yi did not respond, but pulled out a pack of sour tricolor candies from his hand, tore it open and took out a red candy, twisted it to peel off the candy wrapper until his chest and belly were exposed, and stuffed it into Nan Ruochan's hand, "Eat slowly."
"Thank you, uncle."
"Hey, be good." Nan Yi stroked Nan Ruochan's head with a smile on his face.
Speaking of the Nan family, the one who catches Nan Yi's eye the most is Nan Ruochan, a very pretty little girl.
Since he had something to say today, Nan Yi didn't rush to leave and followed Yi Jinru into the kitchen.
The kitchen has been renovated and looks much better than before. A gas stove is used, and there is a kerosene stove and a coal stove in the corner. The coal stove is covered with black ash and looks like it has not been used for a long time.
Yes, there are five people in the family, four of them are earning a salary, and Nan Yi also pays the rent every month. Except for the house, their life is not too bad.
"I have a small yard in Lucaoyuan Hutong, with five rooms. If you don't mind, you can move in there."
"It seems like you're doing well out there, you even own a house. Aren't you living in the south? Why did you buy a house in Beijing... You bought it, right?"
When Yi Jinru heard Nan Yi's words, her attitude improved a lot and her words became less harsh.
"I bought it. Consider it my gift to you two. Tomorrow, let's go to the Housing Authority and have the property title changed to your name."
"Why bother with that? Just take the property deed with you."
"It's better to make some changes. It's convenient to repair a wall or remove a leak." Nan Yi said, and then said, "Let's talk about the house. I have other things to do when I come back today. In our village, a restaurant was opened on Qianmen East Street. I am in charge of it. I have a lot of things to do and run around everywhere, so I don't have time to manage it;
So, I want you to talk to your eldest brother and ask him if he is willing to help me manage the restaurant. It is a formal job, with medical insurance and so on, and the salary is 300 yuan a month.
If you like, I can also arrange a position for you, where you will be responsible for accounting. You don't have to stay there all day long. You only need to check the accounts once in the afternoon. It's not a formal job, and the salary is 120 yuan a month."
"120 yuan, so high? Just for accounting?"
"Yes, just take care of the accounts and count the money. If there is no problem, just deposit it into the account book. The village will come to reconcile the accounts once every six months. When people come, you just need to contact them. In a year, you will be busy for a few days at most. Let me know whether you are going or not as soon as possible. If you don't go, I will find someone else."
"Go, go, go, why not go. Let me ask, besides the 120 yuan, do I have any other benefits?"
"Of course there are gifts for festivals and holidays. If you're talking about other things, of course there are none. Don't you have connections in the Second Chemical Plant? You have pensions and medical insurance."
"Who asked you this? I was talking about festivals. Besides, isn't this a restaurant? You can always take some of the leftovers home, right?"
"Hey, why are you taking that? Don't you think it's shabby? You have the money in your hand, you can buy whatever you want. There are rules in the store, no one is allowed to take ingredients home, please don't make it difficult for me."
"No, no."
Yi Jinru said this, but in her heart she was thinking, "If you don't take the public property, you are stupid. When Tieli takes office, I can take it whenever I want."
She had already made up her mind to let Nan Tieli work in the restaurant. He was a regular employee with a monthly salary of 300 yuan and he was also a leader. If he didn't go, would he be stupid?
"Then put it this way. Whether you are going or not, just send me a message and find me at the restaurant. Remember, it's Duanjinlou, East Qianmen Street." Nan Yi said, and stood up as if to leave.
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's already noon, eat at home. Please help me look after the kids while I go buy groceries."
As Yi Jinru spoke, she pulled a shopping basket from the iron nail on the wall and walked out in a hurry.
"Ruochan, how old are you?"
"Uncle, I'm six years old."
"Did you go to kindergarten?"
"No."
"Then can you write?"
"Yes, grandma will teach you."
Although Yi Jinru's words may not sound pleasant to the ear, she is still quite knowledgeable. As a junior high school graduate in the 1950s, she can be considered an intellectual.
Nan Yi and Nan Ruochan asked and answered questions, and left after having a very rare harmonious meal at the Nan family.
In the afternoon, he went to the entrance of Mingzhu Banquet and took a look. Seeing that Peng Xiuquan was still alive, he quickly slipped away.
The Mingzhu Banquet was quite lively. Liu Zhen's father Liu Genmu, her mother Lv Bifang, her eldest brother Liu Qinglong, her eldest sister-in-law Hei Mu'er, her eldest sister-in-law's younger brother Hei Muyu, her second brother Liu Menghu, her third brother Liu Feibao, and their girlfriends. Nan Yi didn't know what their names were, but they were all there.
With all these clowns gathered together, they didn't ruin the Mingzhu Banquet. It must have been quite difficult for Peng Xiuquan. Nan Yi should stay hidden. If he jumped out now, he didn't know whether Peng Xiuquan would chop him to pieces.
