Scholars in the courtyard

"Sister Qin, what are you thinking about?"

Qin Huairu was startled when a voice came from beside him, and the parts in his hand almost shook off.

Looking back, it turned out to be Silly Zhu, and then looking around, the workers didn't even bother to look at her.

"Zhuzi, why are you here? You scared me to death."

Surprise filled his face for a moment, and Shazhu secretly rejoiced.

"Hey, why don't you come down to the workshop to help? The director just arranged it, so I'm here."

"You are the chef here to work, but who in the back kitchen is going to do the cooking?"

Qin Huairu's words touched Shazhu's heart, "I asked you to come here, you are not overqualified for your talents."

"I would say that if we workers want to contribute to the country, we must do our jobs well. If we do the work in the workshop well, we are a chef and cooking well is our greatest contribution to the country."

Silly Zhu stretched out his thumb and kept comparing, "Gao, Sister Qin has learned a lot in the few days since she came to the workshop. She speaks at such a high level. She is so awesome. It would be a pity not to be a director."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Shut up."

Qin Huairu turned around and continued to play with the parts in her hands, looking at it with great interest.

"By the way, Zhuzi, how is the old lady's health lately?"

"Hey, since I was scared by that dead dog last time, I have been lying down at home. It's hard to get up and go to the toilet."

"My aunt has been taking care of me these two days. In our courtyard, she is the most knowledgeable and warm-hearted person."

“The gentleman is not bad”

Silly Zhu began to praise Yi Zhonghai and Auntie, but Qin Huairu lowered his head, the compassion on his face fleeting.

boom!

"Hands up, don't move."

The door was suddenly knocked open, and two figures rushed in, pointing their guns at the two people in the room.

"You, what are you doing?"

Facing the sudden intruder, one of them had his eyes flashing, and he wanted to stand up in a panic, but was kicked in the chest by the person who rushed in from behind, and then was kneeled on the chest, and his arms were imprisoned by a grapple.

As for the other man, he had two guns on his head and did not dare to move at all.

"take away!"

Team Leader Yu said and asked someone to take him to the car, and then a group of people quickly checked in the yard.

After a while, Xiaobo came over and said, "Team leader, there is nothing."

"Team leader, there is a gun here."

"No."

As the searchers arrived, Team Leader Yu frowned, "Have you searched carefully?"

"Well, I searched and found nothing except the gun, which I made myself."

Team Leader Yu frowned even more.

"That's not right. This is where the instructions were given. There can be no mistake."

Xiaobo was also suspicious. According to the instructions, after receiving the emergency information, he should come here as soon as possible and put the bricks away.

"Team leader, why don't we interrogate these two people now?"

"Um."

Team leader Yu came to the car and started asking.

After a while, the whole person looked gloomy.

They lived in this house for many years, but never received any news.

He also didn't know anything about the enemy. The reason he resisted was because he thought bad guys were coming in and wanted to inform the villagers.

Team Leader Yu has already seen that this is a safe house for Grasshopper. The safe house is not only a place to hide, but also a place to warn of danger.

"Who around here passes by here every day?"

Suddenly, Team Leader Yu asked.

The two looked at each other and said, "We are on the outskirts of the village. If you want to leave the village, you can only go out through the alley and then onto the main road."

Team Leader Yu suddenly slapped his thigh, "Quick, go next door and search carefully."

Xiaobo also thought of something and rushed to the next door with his people.

There are five other families living around this family, and Xiaobo and Brother Zhu are investigating.

While Team Leader Yu was waiting anxiously, a loud noise suddenly rang in his ears.

The whole village trembled at the loud noise, and Team Leader Yu rushed out.

"Xiao Liu! Xiao Liu!"

Looking at the scene of the explosion, Xiao Liu and two comrades fell to the ground. Xiao Liu, who fell behind, had wooden thorns stuck in his body. Team leader Yu felt chilled and quickly stepped forward.

"Come quickly, help people, help people!"

After a while, someone ran over, but they were shocked when they saw the debris on the ground.

Especially the colleague in front, one of his legs was blown off at this moment, the bones were mixed with flesh and blood, and the blood was flowing loudly.

But there was no sound from the whole person, not even a painful cry.

Lying behind him, a piece of wood as thick as a thumb was stuck in his neck, running through his entire throat. He was vomiting blood from his mouth, and his chest was jumping.

The only lucky one was Xiao Liu, who was further away from the explosion, but only a little further away.

Fortunately, the comrades in front of him blocked most of the damage for him. He now has a few scars on his body, but it was uncomfortable to be hit to the ground by the shock wave.

Soon Xiao Liu was carried away and sent to the hospital.

The remaining two people were silent.

Even though he is used to seeing life and death, Kazuya has been right for so many years, and his heart has become as hard as iron.

But every time he saw his comrades lying in a pool of blood, Team Leader Yu was suffering mentally.

In the past, in order to lurk, he had witnessed his comrades being treated inhumanely. Faced with the calmness of death, he could only roar in a helpless manner.

But now, living in the sun, he had to endure this kind of pain, which made him hate these mice even more.

"Team leader, it's black powder."

"The traces of life in the house should be that of a person."

Xiaobo endured his sadness and quickly checked, "The stove is still hot, it shouldn't be long."

"Go and ask who this family is."

Team leader Yu spoke with a cold tone.

Soon, the village chief was brought.

He was also shocked by the explosion, and his legs became weak when he was brought there. It was his dereliction of duty that he had not discovered it in his village for so many years.

The higher-ups will soon come down to hold the village accountable. When the position of village head is gone, he will have to earn work points from farmers.

The life of a family.

The village chief's mind was in such a mess that he didn't even understand Team Leader Yu's inquiry.

Snapped

Xiaobo slapped him in the face, and the village chief finally came to his senses.

"Ah, this, this is the residence of Old Man Jiang. He is a widower. His wife died long ago and he has no children. He collects excrement in the village. He is over 50 this year. No, it should be 40. It seems to be 40."

The village chief became more and more excited as he talked, saying whatever came to his mind without any logic at all.

"How tall? How fat or thin? Does he look special?"

Team leader Yu asked impatiently, and the village chief thought for a while, "He's 1.65 meters, but he has a hunched back. If he stood upright, he would be taller."

"He is lean and smells bad, so no one is willing to get close to him. Normally we..."

Without saying much, Team Leader Yu found a piece of clothing from the house and said, "Xiaobo, call the Haidian Training Office immediately and ask for two police dogs. Be quick."

Xiaobo nodded and immediately ran to the brigade headquarters with the village chief.

After a while, I drove to Haidian again, preparing to make contact on the way.

Just as Xiaobo was driving to pick someone up, not far from the village, a man's face turned cold after hearing the explosion, and then his hunched body slowly straightened up.

There was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Turn around and walk towards a woods.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Yang Xiaotao followed Xu Yuanshan and waited for Director Wang and his party at the gate of the steel rolling mill.

A total of 300 sets of bearings and tire accessories were delivered with the train this time, and there will be more to come.

Fortunately, the rolling mill had already sent a convoy waiting at the station and was now heading back.

"What's going on in the workshop?"

While waiting, Xu Yuanshan asked.

He took the cigarette from Yang Xiaotao's hand, took one out and lit it.

Behind them, there were people from the Propaganda Department and people from the Security Department.

At this moment, Lou Xiao'e was standing with Yu Haitang. Although the two parties did not communicate with each other, their straight figures stood there as if they were competing for the sunshine, for fear that their own light would be lost a little.

Further away, Wang Hao and Hao Ren were communicating. The two of them had a common topic and would smile whenever they talked in the past few days.

In the front, Yang Xiaotao gave Xu Yuanshan some advice, "It's not bad, we're on the right track. We estimate we'll be able to produce the product today or tomorrow."

"It's not slow."

"It's all because of the hard work of the comrades, and with Liu Gong and Chen Gong in charge, I couldn't have done it so quickly just by myself."

"I'm relieved if you think so."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and looked at the sun above his head. After the Chinese New Year, God was so stingy that it didn't even rain heavily.

Everyone in the farmland was waiting impatiently.

Fortunately, there are well drilling machines and pressure wells this year. I heard from Yang Shitou that the surrounding villages frequently drilled wells and began to use groundwater for irrigation.

Yang Xiaotao knew that his changes would lower the groundwater level and restrict the future development of the city.

But now we don’t have time to think about so many things. People don’t have enough to eat, so why should we care about underground affairs?

"Uncle Xu, there's news from the farm. I have to go back in a few days."

Last time Ran Qiuye came back, Yang Xiaotao asked about the growth of corn.

Calculating the time, it has been almost two months. With Xiaowei's ripening, the corn was planted about half a month earlier than the same period. Yang Xiaotao estimated that the pollination period was about to enter. This was a critical time and he had to take charge personally.

Of course, Xiaowei is the main force.

After all, the hybrid corn area this time covers more than 50 acres. If there were not enough female parents, this number would increase.

"Okay, I'll take care of it for you when the time comes."

"Uncle, I want to drive a tractor back. As you know, this thing is more helpful to agriculture."

"You can discuss this with Lao Yang."

As the two said this, time passed by.

Soon they saw the motorcade approaching from the end of the road, and everyone cheered up.

"Gong Yang, we meet again."

When the leading car stopped in front of the gate, they saw Factory Director Wang get out of the passenger seat and shouted to Yang Xiaotao.

Xu Yuanshan and Yang Xiaotao stepped forward quickly.

"Director Wang. This is Xu Yuanshan, Director Xu."

"Hello, Director Wang, welcome to the steel rolling mill."

"Hello, Director Xu."

The two shook hands and met the person behind them.

Other cars drove in along the gate.

"Director Wang, you have worked hard all the way." Yang Xiaotao said from the side, "I need you to personally take action on this matter."

"Hey, why don't you come to Sijiu City to see something new?" Factory Director Wang smiled, "Gong Yang, are you afraid of eating roast duck?"

"Look what you said, isn't it just roast duck? I'll arrange it for you at noon. I guarantee you'll be satisfied with it."

Yang Xiaotao said nonchalantly, and Director Wang talked to Xu Yuanshan about what happened in Quancheng, especially praising Yang Xiaotao's drinking capacity.

Qilu men are outspoken. To others, it sounds like they are just drinking wine, but in their hearts, they are the embodiment of close friends.

Xu Yuanshan can also drink, and he has some insights on this.

Just as the three of them were talking, a sudden barking came from the dog. Yang Xiaotao, with his sharp ears and eyes, looked over immediately.

At the end of the road, I saw two big gray dogs dragging two police officers running towards this side quickly, and behind them was a beautiful lady riding a bicycle, looking anxious.

"Be careful!~~"

There was a faint shout from the big beauty, and Yang Xiaotao suddenly heard alarm bells in his heart.

At this moment, Xiaowei was in the yard and did not remind him, but seeing Da Meili like this and thinking that something seemed to happen every time he appeared, it became even more urgent.

Just as Yang Xiaotao was about to take Factory Director Wang and Xu Yuanshan to the steel rolling mill, he saw someone running towards him quickly, putting his hands into his clothes as he ran.

"careful!"

There was an angry shout from behind, and then a figure was seen rushing out and colliding with that person.

The man only had one arm, but he held the man tightly and pushed him away.

Boom~~~

The next moment, Yang Xiaotao felt that there were squealing sounds all around him, his whole body was trembling, and he couldn't hear anything.
