Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 444: Friendship of the Street Office

Two days later, Yan Jiecheng's sentence came out. He was sentenced to three years of reform through labor. Fortunately, the place where he served his sentence was relatively good. He only had to work in a reform through labor farm on the outskirts of Beijing. If he was forced to build reservoirs or roads or open up wasteland on a farm, that would be extremely difficult.

Before being sent to the farm for forced labor, Yan Bugui and his wife Yang Ruihua went to the detention center to visit Yan Jiecheng.

After not seeing Yan Jiecheng for a few days, he looked much thinner and more haggard.

Yang Ruihua kept crying, and Yan Bugui hated her for not fighting back and kept blaming her.

Perhaps he knew there was no hope of getting his sentence reduced, so Yan Jiecheng ignored his parents when they came to visit him. He just closed his eyes and said nothing.

Yan Jiecheng felt that his current situation was closely related to his parents.

He hated his parents and thought that if they hadn't sent Yu Li to help with the work, he wouldn't have disliked Wang Hongtao and would not have targeted him.

He hated Wang Hongtao and thought he was setting a trap for him on purpose. If he wanted to get married, he should get married. Why did he play tricks with the idea of ​​getting married in the countryside? Wasn't this just setting a trap for him?

He also hated Yu Li. If Yu Li had not gone to work in the textile factory, had not prevented him from touching her, and had not looked at him with disgust, he would not have taken his anger out on Wang Hongtao and ended up like this.

He hated everyone except himself. He felt that it was all other people's fault that he ended up like this. He just did what a normal man would do, but he was unlucky and not careful enough...

Yang Ruihua had cried enough, and Yan Bugui had scolded enough. Seeing that Yan Jiecheng was still indifferent, they had no choice but to hand over the clothes and other daily necessities they brought to the staff of the detention center, and begged him to take care of Yan Jiecheng. Then they supported each other and left.

Seeing the iron door of the visiting room closing, Yan Jiecheng finally couldn't help covering his face and crying loudly.

He was afraid that this separation would last for three years, and he was also afraid of going to labor camp, where he would be a hated prisoner when he came out. He was even more afraid that he would not be able to survive these three years.

……

Just after get off work that day, Director Wang from the Street Office came with some people.

Yi Zhonghai wisely gathered everyone in the central courtyard.

Director Wang smiled and nodded to Yi Zhonghai, then announced to everyone the decision that Xu Damao would be the manager of Courtyard 95, and once again reminded everyone to be united, friendly, and harmonious with their neighbors, and to prevent similar incidents like Yan Jiecheng from happening again.

Then he turned to Yan Bugui, who was hanging his head, and said, "Old Yan, Old Yan, you are a teacher, but you can't even educate your own children!"

"Hey......"

"In view of the huge negative impact that Yan Jiecheng's case has brought to our street, the street office has decided to punish Yan Bugui and his wife by making them clean the streets of Nanluoguxiang for half a year as a warning to others. I hope everyone can encourage each other."

Yan Bugui was confused, but Yang Ruihua at the side helped him to agree.

In this age where collective honor is paramount, there is nothing wrong with the punishment issued by Director Wang.

After finishing his work, Director Wang walked towards Wang Hongtao and said hello to him: "Hello, Chief Wang, our subdistrict office is also responsible for this incident. When the criminal Ye Tang came to our subdistrict office to collect your information, Xiao Jiang from our Civil Affairs Section provided him with a lot of help. I am not qualified to be the director..."

Wang Hongtao waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey~~, Director Wang, what are you talking about? The people who did the wrong thing are your subordinates. What does it have to do with you? There are so many people in the street office. It is normal for a few bad elements to appear."

"Director Wang, can we go inside and have a drink of water and rest our feet?" Wang Hongtao invited.

"Then excuse me!"

Director Wang then called several staff members who were accompanying him to the backyard.

"Director Wang, please come in..."

After entering the room, Wang Hongtao poured a cup of tea for everyone. From their clothes, it could be seen that they all had some status, at least they were not ordinary clerks.

Director Wang took the tea and took a sip: "Good tea!"

Supplies are in short supply these days, so any tea that has a nice aroma and is not crushed into powder is good tea.

"I came here today for no other reason than to express my apologies. After all, we were negligent in our work and caused you a lot of trouble."

"Also, I want to make friends with Section Chief Wang."

"Let me introduce Chief Wang to Chief Cao from the Civil Affairs Section."

"This is Section Chief Pan from the Housing Management Section."

"Section Chief Wang from the Mediation Section."

"Section Chief Zhai from the Household Registration Department."

......

It can be seen that Director Wang brought with him this time are all powerful section chiefs who can be put to good use.

"Hello, Chief Cao."

"Hello, Chief Pan."

......

Wang Hongtao responded to them one by one and took note of everyone's appearance.

The so-called society of personal connections means that when you have a status and climb up, interpersonal relationships will come to you, and you just need to manage them well.

A hero needs three helpers. If you give others face and convenience, they will naturally give you face and convenience.

This is called human relations. If you say it is protecting each other, then you are immature.

"Chief Wang, I heard that you and Comrade Qin Jingru are from the same place?" The person who asked this question was Chief Cao from the Civil Affairs Section.

Wang Hongtao smiled and said, "Chief Cao is right. Now that life is better, I thought of bringing her from the countryside to the city. Who knew this would happen?"

Section Chief Cao asked tentatively: "Why don't you register your marriage? Whether you are married or not is also an important factor in the organization's assessment of the stability of cadres."

"Hey, isn't the age difference a little bit? Jingru just looks older, but in terms of age, we have to wait until after the Chinese New Year."

"Not old enough? That's easy, come to me!" Section Chief Cao patted his chest, smiled at Wang Hongtao and said confidently: "Let me tell you, Section Chief Wang, I've been in the Civil Affairs Department for so many years, I can tell a girl's age at a glance. A girl like your Jingru is definitely over 18! There must have been a mistake in the registration!"

"Seriously? Chief Cao, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"I guarantee it! I really guarantee it!" Chief Cao vowed, "Leave it to me. If you want to register, come to me anytime!"

Qin Jingru just bit her fingers and laughed foolishly.

Wang Hongtao quickly responded, "Then let's make a deal. I won't bother Chief Cao again later!"

Section Chief Cao waved his hand and said with a smile: "We are all friends, why be polite! We must keep in touch with each other in the future!"

At this time, several other section chiefs nearby also echoed one by one. Section Chief Zhai of the Household Registration Section said: "Section Chief Wang, whenever Miss Qin wants to transfer her household registration, please come and find me."

"Chief Zhai, you're welcome." Wang Hongtao smiled and bowed:

"Director Wang, Section Chief Cao, and the other leaders present here, if you have relatives or friends working in the factory, you can call them out so we can get to know each other and make friends."

……

After the cadres from the subdistrict office left, Wang Hongtao couldn't help but think to himself: Sure enough, when your position is different, other people's attitude towards you will also be different...

This is the real society.

In human relations, there is give and take, and there is give and take. It is the right thing to do to constantly build new, healthy and reliable networks and discard old, dilapidated and backward networks.

After achieving their goal, Director Wang and his team left with great satisfaction. Wang Hongtao also gained a lot. You will only know how important the friendship of the county magistrate is when you encounter trouble.
