Chapter 159 Fighting for He Yuzhu

Chapter 159 Fighting for He Yuzhu

When He Yuzhu mentioned this, Sun Tie's body, which had just stood upright, collapsed, and then he sighed.

“I just got back yesterday!
In the end, no matter how I explained to Zaoer, it was no use. Now he just ignores me.

I saw Sister Hongying and was about to ask her to help me persuade Zao'er, and then you came over. "

Although Sun Tie encountered difficulties,
But He Yuzhu didn't know that he couldn't help.

He didn't dare to provoke Tian Zao now, otherwise he would definitely be scolded. He didn't want to be abused.
So he said to Li Hongying,
"Sister Hongying, you have to help Brother Tiedan. He and Sister Zao have been discussing marriage for a while.
We can’t let this mission ruin our marriage!”

"Don't worry, Zhuzi. Tiedan isn't going to do anything bad. I will definitely help persuade Xiaozao.

You, really surprised me.
You can write and do arithmetic, but why have you never told us about it? And yet, you were taken to the police station by that guy Lin Zheng without any notice.

Our street is also in need of talents like you, how about you come to our street!"

Seeing Li Hongying snatching people, Sun Tie also reacted and said,
"That's not right, Sister Hongying. Zhuzi has been following me since the beginning. He is from our Social Affairs Department, and I even promised to be his introducer.

I didn't know about it before, so I let Lin Zheng get there first.
But I will definitely have to report this to my superiors, and then I will be transferred back to our Social Affairs Department.

But why do you keep getting involved?
Your street doesn't have any major missions, and since Zhuzi can drive, wouldn't it be a waste to keep him there?"

Seeing Sun Tie's anxious look, Li Hongying smiled and shook her head.
"You don't even know that there is a talent like Zhu in your pocket.

Who can you blame if someone gets away with it?

Besides, Zhuzi is a resident of our jurisdiction. He can be considered a member of our street government. How can you say that he is from the Social Department?

And he is only 14 years old. Do you think the leaders above will allow him to join the Ministry of Social Affairs?

impossible! "

Hearing Li Hongying talking about this, Sun Tie immediately shook his head with a smile.

“It’s impossible to join the Ministry of Social Affairs.

But I heard from our team leader that we will be transferred to the Municipal Bureau soon, so Zhuzi can just go with me to the Municipal Bureau then."

Seeing that the two of them were arguing,
He Yuzhu knew that it would be inappropriate for him to go anywhere, so he had to interrupt them.
"Sister Hongying, Brother Tiedan, the two of you should stop arguing.

I have to take care of my old lady and my younger sister on weekdays.

The municipal bureau is too far away and the street government is too busy. The branch bureau is not only close but also has more flexible working hours. I think the branch bureau is pretty good. Stop arguing about it.

By the way, Brother Tiedan, since you are going to be transferred to the Municipal Bureau, is Zheng Qiang's case closed?

Have you found out any news about the One-Eyed Dragon and the Sitting Tiger?"

Hearing He Yuzhu say this, I thought of his family situation.
Sun Tie and Li Hongying didn't say anything more.

Just as He Yuzhu said, the Municipal Bureau is located at No. 16 Gong'an Street, Qianmennei, which is too far away from Shichahai. The street government has too many trivial matters and is not suitable for him.

Hearing He Yuzhu asking about Lin Wenhua and Bai Wenguang,

Sun Tie just shook his head.
"It's over. That guy is a diehard. We couldn't get anything out of him. We had no choice but to shoot him."

Speaking of Zheng Qiang, Sun Tie glanced at He Yuzhu's submachine gun, and thought of Han Qingkui, so he continued,
"By the way, Zhuzi, you still have two pistols here with me.
I'll bring it to you when I'm free. You'd better not carry this submachine gun. It's too conspicuous.

It’s fine in Maoer Hutong, but if you take it somewhere else, the patrol will definitely question you.”

Knowing that Sun Tie had now regained his identity, there was no need for him to carry two pistols.
And it is really scary to carry such a big weapon all day long.

He Yuzhu did not refuse.

Soon it was time for the steel mill to pay wages.

When he got off work in the evening, He Daqing not only brought back this month's salary, but also brought back the portrait of the leader distributed by the steel mill.

"Zhu Zi, please stop cooking.
We quickly put up the portraits of the two leaders in the main hall.
I got this from the factory with great difficulty, many people still don’t have it yet!”

"Wait a minute, Dad. I'll steam the steamed bread and come right over."

After sticking the leader's portrait squarely in the middle of the wall, He Daqing took out this month's salary from his pocket and handed it to He Yuzhu.
However, He Yuzhu discovered something was wrong as soon as he took the money.

Although the steel rolling mill paid wages based on actual units, the amount of money He Daqing received increased every month, but this month's salary felt much lower than last month.

After a careful look, the number is less than before.
But the denominations have increased a lot, with 200 and 500 yuan notes appearing. It seems that the RMB has depreciated rapidly in recent times.

After thinking about what was going to happen next, he made a decision.

"Dad, it's already October, and we need to stock up on winter supplies next month. Do you think we should start stocking up now while it's still early?

I think there's something wrong with the prices!
Don’t let it be like last year.”

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Daqing patted his forehead and said with some annoyance,
"Look at me, I'm so happy to get the leader's portrait that I don't know what to do.

When I was distributing salaries today, I heard from the finance department that in October, not only were 10 and 200 yuan bills issued, but also 500 and 1000 yuan bills.

Although we have some savings to back us up, we won't starve, but the money is so little that we have no money left.
I have discussed this with your Aunt Bai.
Any money other than savings must be spent quickly.

Since you also said you want to stock up on winter supplies, then spend them all. If you don't have enough, you can buy more when you get your salary next month.
To avoid any problems.

By the way, we will start heating the kang next month, so let Qingshan sleep in your room to save some coal."

Seeing that He Daqing and his wife had already thought about this matter, He Yuzhu didn't say anything more.

Thinking that He Daqing and his wife both worked in the canteen and he also received a food subsidy every month, the family was not short of food.

Early the next morning,

He Yuzhu first went to the coal shop and bought more than 4000 kilograms of coal in several trips, filling up the three coal sheds of his own and the deaf old lady's home.
Then he went to the grocery store and exchanged all the remaining money for cornmeal and sweet potatoes.

As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.

Last year, due to insufficient winter supplies, the other families in the courtyard suffered a lot.
He Yuzhu's actions naturally attracted the attention of the neighbors. Regardless of whether it was right or wrong, they all followed suit and started buying food and coal.
Start preparing for winter in advance.

Not long after everyone had spent all their money,
The news that many powerful merchants in Peking were hoarding food, cloth, coal and other daily necessities finally leaked out.
The prices of various daily necessities immediately began to fluctuate violently.
