Yu Xiaoli also knew that it was getting late, so she, an old woman, came to the young man's room in the middle of the night.
If someone sees him, he still doesn't know what to say behind his back, but Yan Jiecheng is helpless. He won't come even if he is alive, and there is nothing she can do.
As soon as Du Fei opened the door, she immediately got into the house and said in a short sentence: "It's Director Lian, saying that the house in our neighborhood committee is in disrepair and wants to renovate it..."
"Renovate the house?" Du Fei was a little surprised as the old saying goes, 'If the government doesn't repair the office, the customers won't repair the shop.'
In the past, yamen were all in the form of a front office and a house behind. Officials worked in the front and lived in the back. When they were officials, they were all floating officials, and the mobility was very high.
If you spend huge sums of money to repair the yamen, it is very likely that you will transfer it to another place as soon as it is repaired. This will cost a lot of money and gain more than the loss, and it will be an advantage for future generations.
Even now, the situation has changed. There is no such thing as whether an official does not repair the government office, but it is rare that he repairs the house as soon as he takes office.
Why is Director Lian so impatient?
In addition, repairing a house is not a trivial matter. Director Lian is obviously not just doing repairs this time. If a big project is to be carried out, where will the money come from? Outsiders don't know, but Du Fei knows very well that the neighborhood committee does not have much money on hand.
It just keeps running, so how can it have money to repair the house?
The most important thing is that the houses in the neighborhood committee are originally rented. Unlike the courtyards owned by the street office, the property rights are in the street office.
Director Lian of the Neighborhood Committee works in the backyard of a courtyard house.
Five north rooms, plus left and right wing rooms, the monthly rent seems to be seventeen yuan
Director Lian really wanted to build a house, but it was really like 'the government built the yamen, and the customers built the shop'. She took advantage of both.
But as Yu Xiaoli explained it carefully, Du Fei suddenly realized
It turned out that according to Director Lian, the house in the neighborhood committee was too dilapidated, so he went to communicate with the landlord.
Finally, an agreement was reached. The landlord would pay to renovate the house, and then the rent would be increased by two yuan per month.
At first glance it seems reasonable.
Even when the new director took office, he got a benefit for everyone in the neighborhood committee and renovated the house. Everyone had a better working environment. But what did the landlord think? Did he get kicked in the head by a donkey?
Why should he agree to a deal that was obviously a loss?
It would cost at least two hundred yuan to renovate such a big yard.
If you add two yuan to a month's rent, it's twenty-four yuan a year, and you'll have to pay back your original capital in 1989. Wouldn't it be nice to put that two hundred yuan in the bank for a fixed term?
At this time, the five-year regular interest rate is above 5, and if you save for ten years at a time, it will almost double based on compound interest calculation.
When Du Fei heard this, he knew there must be something fishy here.
Thinking again about Director Lian in the afternoon I ran to the temple to see the monk, and then the monk went to Prince Gong’s Mansion to spread the message.
It made him more certain that there was something wrong with this matter
Sure enough, Yu Xiaoli continued: "Chief Du, I also heard that Director Lian told Liu Hong'e during the day that she should find a few reliable people. I don't know what she wants to do?"
Du Fei frowned
Obviously, Director Lian said that he asked Liu Hong'e to find a few reliable people. There must be something shady about it.
But having said that, this matter shouldn't be too serious, otherwise she wouldn't let Liu Hong'e find someone casually
In addition, this matter is quite a big deal, and one person and two people will definitely not be able to do it.
Thinking back to the fact that I just mentioned the need to repair the neighborhood committee house, I’m afraid it’s just to cover up the matter.
If you think about it this way, it makes sense that Director Lian is deliberately planning to kill Director Zhao.
When Du Fei thought of this, he couldn't help but feel lucky that he had installed Yu Xiaoli as a hidden stake. Otherwise, he didn't know how much effort it would take to figure out these situations.
The only thing that's unclear now is what the director is going to do, but there's no need to worry. Once some things start, they can't be covered up.
By the time we see their follow-up actions, we will be able to guess almost exactly what they will do.
After sending Yu Xiaoli away, Du Fei couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply took out a pen and paper to analyze the current situation. On the other side, Yu Xiaoli returned to the front yard. The three uncles and three aunts were all asleep. She returned to the back room, took off her shoes and crawled Go to bed first and look at the sleeping child
Yan Tiecheng on the side asked under the quilt, "You're back." Yu Xiaoli glanced at him and said "hmm" angrily.
Yan Tiecheng curled his lips and said nothing.
But the more Yu Xiaoli thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became. She turned around and glared: "Yan Tiecheng, let me ask you, are you a man? Are you worried about your wife going to another man's house in the middle of the night?"
Yan Tiecheng grinned awkwardly: "What, Xiaoli, um... I believe you!"
Yu Xiaoli's nose felt sore, but she had no choice but to say: "Bah! Yan Tiecheng, I don't know what kind of virtue you are! The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked..."
Yan Tiecheng couldn't stand it anymore: "Hey, let's talk about it, don't get involved with our dad!" After Yu Xiaoli said it, she also felt a little regretful. After all, a son never talks about his father's fault.
If it really got out, she was saying bad things about her husband behind his back, no matter what happened, she would ignore it
But looking at Yan Tiecheng's bearish behavior, she was really angry:
"Yan Tiecheng, let me leave you here today. You should stay away from that vixen named Wang at school. You won't know what your last name is after two days of full meals, right?"
Yan Tiecheng suddenly became a little angry and frowned: "What are you talking about! Sister Wang and I have nothing. An unmarried girl, if rumors spread, how can she survive?"
Yu Xiaoli curled her lips and said, "Hey, does this make you feel bad?"
"I..." Yan Tiecheng said depressedly: "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, so I turn off the lights and go to sleep!"
However, Yu Xiaoli refused to give up and spat at the back of Yan Tiecheng's head: "Yan Tiecheng, remember this! If I know you went to the house named Wang, we... no one of us will have an easy time!"
Yan Tiecheng faced the wall, neither saying anything nor looking back. He just pretended not to hear that he was also very depressed, holding back an evil fire.
It was originally expected that after Yu Xiaoli went to work, her family would have two jobs and life would be more comfortable, and everything would be better. However, Yu Xiaoli had a strong personality. Originally, because she was at home and could not earn a penny, she could only look down upon her.
But after going to work, he spent more than ten yuan a month and added a big fat boy to the Yan family. This made him perk up, and Yan Tiecheng became more and more stressed and couldn't breathe.
The days were indeed more comfortable, but the number of quarrels increased. As for Du Fei, he went back upstairs to lie down.
Looking at the full page of notepad downstairs just now, I have already found the breakthrough point for the next step - Na San'er!
Ever since he last saw Na San with Wang Shaowen and Bao Yuzhou in Dayang Mountain, Du Fei planned to investigate this person.
It was just delayed by what happened one after another. Now it seems that there is no time to delay.
Du Fei even had a hunch that if he followed the line of investigation on San'er, he might find something shocking!
The next day, Du Fei got up early
I left the courtyard directly without breakfast and rushed to Lao Yang's house before going to work.
He was familiar with the road here. As soon as he entered the hospital, he saw Liu Kuangfu and Yang Zhigang, looking unlucky, standing in front of Nan's house, each with two bricks on his head.
I haven’t seen these two guys in a while. I didn’t expect this scene to happen.
Du Fei couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hey, you two gentlemen, where did you come from singing this? Haha, Second General?" Yang Zhigang grimaced and called out "Brother Du." Liu Kuangfu even pulled his neck and shouted: " Master, Master, Brother Du is here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Yang and his wife came out of the house to greet them.
Lao Yang had a smile on his face: "Oh, it's so early in the morning! Please sit in the room quickly." r> Ruizhu said: "You haven't had breakfast yet~ I'm going to make a bowl of braised noodles. Don't mind it." Du Fei smiled and said: "Thank you, sister, don't put away the braised noodles. I can't eat anything too salty." "
Ruizhu responded and immediately got busy
Du Fei nuzzled at those two idiots Liu Kuangfu: "What's wrong with these two guys? Are they standing guard all morning?"
Lao Yang slapped his thigh and said: "Hey~ Forget it, these two bastards somehow got into trouble with the third master in the backyard. Yesterday they removed all the tiles from their house. Are you angry?"
When Du Fei heard "Mr. Men" and "Jie Wa", why did it sound so familiar to him? He smiled and asked, "Are you going to compensate me?"
Lao Yang smiled bitterly and said: "Otherwise, people are coming to our door. What else can we do if we don't pay compensation?"
Yang Zhigang, who was standing next to him, said: "That grandson of Men San'er is nothing special. He is quite old and full of tricks, and he is not ashamed of himself!"
Liu Kuangfu also glanced in the direction of the backyard and said with added jealousy: "No way! Brother Du, you don't know that my grandson is almost forty, an old bachelor, and he actually has a crush on Teacher Ran from the Third Uncle's school! That Teacher Ran He's only in his twenties, but he's not shy about marrying someone else's girl. He even threatens someone if he doesn't want to marry someone else. This kind of person... huh~ it's considered a light thing to expose their family's tiles."
Du Fei didn't expect this situation to happen
I just remembered that I heard Zhu Zhu and Jia Liying quarreling a few days ago. It seemed that Teacher Ran had gone to Zhu Zhu, probably because of this.
Teacher Ran came from a bad background, and now she is in trouble. She is targeted by an old bachelor. In fact, it is quite normal. Liu Kuangfu and Yang Zhigang are fighting for her, which makes Du Fei a little surprised.
Could it be that these two boys have a crush on Teacher Ran?
Teacher Ran is much older than the two of them. He can hold two or three gold bricks in one breath, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
However, Du Fei was not interested in their first love, so he didn't ask any more questions.
He went into the house with Lao Yang and started talking about business: "Lao Yang, are you familiar with San'er?"
Lao Yang blinked his eyes and said cautiously: "It's okay. He is the son of sister-in-law Lei's family. We worked together before, but you must have seen him too, but he is a big man. He also suffers from the disease of wealth that belongs to the elders under his banner. He can't do it at all." This is our business"
Du Fei didn't mince words and said straight to the point: "Help me find out what this person does for a living, what kind of friends he has around him, what he is busy with recently, and try not to disturb him."
Lao Yang was very clear-minded and immediately understood that Du Fei came to him specifically because he didn't trust Lei Lao Liu otherwise he would end the relationship immediately after asking Lei Lao Liu. "Don't worry, no later than noon the day after tomorrow." , I will reply to you as soon as possible
