Chapter 329: Condolences from the Subdistrict Office
As soon as Liu Haizhong finished asking, he heard Xu Fugui cooperating with a smile from below.

"What else could it be, it's just a trick!

How many children in Nanluoguxiang used to study at Heizhima Hutong Primary School and asked Old Yan to help with their homework? This guy actually wanted to charge money from the neighbors.

He treated the friendship between neighbors as a business.

It would be strange if the neighbors could elect him as the leader of this residents’ group.”

As soon as Xu Damao finished speaking, Yan Bugui angrily retorted,

"What's wrong with me doing this? Lao He also charges the neighbors for cooking every time.
As a cook, he can earn money by cooking.

As a teacher, I can’t charge money for tutoring children?”

Seeing Yan Bugui's anger towards him, He Daqing couldn't help but roll his eyes. He thought to himself, why can't I charge money for cooking for the neighbors' wedding?

But this kind of thing can never be explained clearly, and he is too lazy to waste time talking.

So he started to urge Liu Haizhong,

"Okay, Lao Liu, let's stop talking. It's so cold, let's finish the important things quickly.
We just need to fulfill our duties as the manager. Whether Old Yan and his men can become the group leaders is none of our business."

Seeing He Daqing speak, Yi Zhonghai also hurriedly said,

"Alright, all of you neighbors, stop exposing each other's secrets here. Let's finish talking about this quickly and then go back to rest."

Yi Zhonghai, the person who was criticized for being careless and without any desire, did not take it seriously, so naturally the other people in the courtyard had nothing to say.

"Okay, Lao Yi, just tell me now!"

Seeing that the neighbors began to listen attentively again, Yi Zhonghai continued to speak.

"Let's continue talking about the neighborhood committee. Since this neighborhood committee is a formal work and will pay normal wages,
If this resident group leader is elected,
If you want to do this job, it’s okay if you don’t have a job. If you already have a job, you have to resign from your original company first.

The last one is that the election of the resident group leader will begin in two days.

If anyone is willing to participate, please go to the street office to register in advance. ”

When Yan Bugui heard Yi Zhonghai say that he would have to resign from his original unit if he was elected as the resident group leader, he rolled his eyes in displeasure.
But this time he learned his lesson and didn't say what was in his mind.

After talking about the neighborhood committee, Yi Zhonghai briefly explained the job responsibilities of the police station, then shook his stiff feet and announced the adjournment of the meeting.

The neighbors in the courtyard went back and said a lot of dirty words,
The next morning, He Yuzhu had just finished cooking Laba porridge.

Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui walked into the courtyard with two men and women in their 30s.
"Lao He, Mrs. Zhang, everyone please come out quickly. Director Zhang from the Street Office and Director Li from the Police Station are here to see you."

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's call, He Daqing quickly stuck his head out.

"Hey, why are Director Zhang and Director Li here? They are rare guests.

Have you two eaten yet?
I've made Laba porridge at home, how about we have some together?"

At this time, Jia Zhangshi and Chen Zhijie next door heard Yi Zhonghai say that the leaders of the subdistrict office and the police station had arrived.
He also hurried out of his house and greeted them warmly.

At this time, He Yuzhu also sent Li Qingshan to the backyard to inform Liu Haizhong and the deaf old lady.

When Director Zhang of the Subdistrict Office and Director Li of the Police Station saw that all the residents of the courtyard had come out, they first greeted everyone with a smile, and then looked at He Yuzhu who was wearing a Zhongshan suit.

"This must be Manager He,
Today, on the first day of the new year, we, on behalf of the subdistrict office and the police station, would like to express our condolences to you, the demobilized soldiers.
At the same time, I came to Nanluoguxiang to meet the new comrades who joined our Jiaodaokou Street. "Since He Yuzhu joined the army, the street government would represent the military control committee to come to the door every year to support the army and their families. Jia Zhang and his family have long been accustomed to it.

But I didn’t expect that after he was demobilized, the street organized a consolation activity.

They are not very envious of this.

They thought that He Yuzhu was lucky to be able to return from the front line, because many people in Beiping who went to the front line to fight did not come back.
They will not let their precious baby take risks.

So I didn't feel anything about the arrival of Director Zhang and Director Li.

However, He Yuzhu, upon hearing the purpose of the two people's visit, knew that this was a job arranged by their superiors and that it was the treatment he deserved, and he didn't say anything about promoting his own style or anything like that.

After the routine task was completed, Director Zhang and his two companions chatted with the neighbors for a while, and then they made an excuse to leave.

"Comrades, we still have to go to other courtyards, so I won't say more to you.

This weekend, the subdistrict office will arrange staff to organize the election of resident group leaders. Please be sure to actively sign up to participate."

Although everyone knew they had no chance of success during the meeting last night,

But it does not prevent people from exercising their right to vote.
After hearing Director Zhang's arrangements, they all smiled and promised to attend on time during the weekend.

"Don't worry, Director Zhang.
The right to vote is a right granted to us ordinary people by the State Council.

When the time comes, we will exercise our rights and elect a team leader who will serve the people wholeheartedly."

"Don't worry, Director. Since the State Council has given us this right, we will definitely watch carefully.
We must choose a good person who cares about us ordinary people.

We will never cause trouble to the Military Control Commission."

Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, the two leaders were very happy and kept praising the neighbors for their awareness.

Then, we went to some courtyard houses amid all the compliments.

As soon as the person left, Liu Haizhong asked,
"Zhu Zi, Director Zhang and Director Li came to see you specifically, right?

Otherwise, there are so many courtyard houses in Nanluoguxiang, and we are not the closest to Jiaodaokou, so why would they come to us so early in the morning? "

Hearing the hidden meaning in Liu Haizhong's words, He Yuzhu couldn't help but ask with a smile,
"Second Master, what do you mean by this?
Is it possible that you have some idea?

How about I go out and invite Director Zhang and the others back, and you ask them in person?"

Liu Haizhong is a reckless man. Even if he has an idea, it is just to become an official.
But when He Yuzhu said he would bring Director Zhang back to question him in person, he was so scared that he didn't know what to say.
If Director Zhang knew what he just said, he would be in trouble for sure.

Not to mention the position of manager, he would get rid of any bad job.

So I had to give in immediately.

"Zhu Zi, Second Uncle was just saying it casually, he didn't mean anything else. You can't invite Director Zhang and the others back."

Although Liu Haizhong has urgently refuted the rumor,

But how could Yan Bugui, who was so angry yesterday, miss this opportunity?
