Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 131 Something Wrong Again

Not long after entering the city of Chengde, after dropping off the hitchhikers at an intersection, Master Liu led the convoy to the entrance of a hotel that looked good in size.

After riding in the car for almost a day, the several security guards were already feeling suffocated in the cramped cab.

As soon as I saw the ground, there was nowhere to sit. As soon as the car stopped, the security guards got out of the car as if they were being chased by dogs.

"I've been riding in the damn car for a whole day, and I can't even straighten my legs."

"It's not good, my butt is numb."

"Oh, there is still one day tomorrow, what should we do?"

Seeing a few security guards huddled together, shouting, stretching their arms and legs, and twisting their hips, He Yuanchao and Master Liu, who got out of the car, smiled and ignored them.

"Taking such an unexpected long-distance ride is like just learning to ride a horse. You have to endure it without getting two layers of calluses on your buttocks and thighs."

Master Liu locked the car door and walked into the hotel, talking cheerfully to He Yuanchao beside him.

It's been a bumpy six or seven hours. Not to mention the security guards who don't often travel long distances. Even though he is in good health, when he first got into the car with his master, every time he stopped to rest, he felt like his bones were all broken. It's like falling apart.

In his opinion, He Yuanchao next to him was holding on in front of him in order not to show any timidity.

The two had been getting along for a while. Master Liu felt that the head of the security department was someone he could get along with, so he gave him a chance.

"Hey, Lao Liu, I haven't seen you for a while. Why are you here on New Year's Eve?"

In the hotel, a man who seemed to be around 50 years old saw an acquaintance coming, and he stood up and said with a smile.

"Don't talk about New Year's Eve. When the task is urgent, you have to run on New Year's Eve even if you have to."

"This is your apprentice. This young man is quite strong."

Ignoring Master Liu's complaints, the man in the hotel looked at He Yuanchao who followed him and asked Master Liu.

"Brother Zhang, don't talk nonsense. This is not my apprentice. He is the security section chief of our factory."

As soon as the man in the hotel finished speaking, Master Liu quickly waved his hands and explained.

When he saw that he had made an mistake, the man named Zhang apologized to He Yuanchao next to Master Liu with an embarrassed look on his face, "Comrade Section Chief, it's my fault that I was blind. I didn't expect you to be a cadre at such a young age." , blame me for being short-sighted.”

"What's the point? I want to learn from Master Liu, but I'm afraid that Master Liu thinks I'm stupid and won't teach me."

Hearing the apology from the man named Zhang, He Yuanchao, who didn't take it seriously at first, immediately started to smooth things over.

Seeing that the young section chief didn't take being underestimated seriously, the man named Zhang was relieved.

After thanking He Yuanchao for being carefree, I didn't have the nerve to talk about it anymore. After reading the letter of introduction that He Yuanchao took out, I opened three rooms according to the number of people.

After paying the money and handing the accommodation invoice key from the Transportation Department to Master Liu, He Yuanchao took the invoice key from the Security Department and led the security personnel who had already entered the house to the second floor.

After following the room number given by the man named Zhang and taking a look, He Yuanchao said to Li Jiefang: "Jiefang, go next door and tell the brothers to pack up quickly. After we are done, we will go to dinner."

"Okay section chief, I'll go right away."

After agreeing, Li Jiefang walked out. Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly turned back to He Yuan who was making the bed and said, "Section Chief, should we call someone from the transportation department?" "Everyone has a family and a family. He may not be willing to get involved with bachelors like us."

After listening to what Li Jiefang said, He Yuanchao put down his work and said with some hesitation.

After thinking about it, he said, "Why don't you go and ask. If they are willing to go, then let's go together. If they are not willing, don't force it."

"Understood the section chief."

After agreeing, Li Jiefang turned around and went out.

In the end, as He Yuanchao said, the four drivers had no intention of getting involved with them. "Section Chief, Master Liu said they can deal with them in one bite at the hotel."

"I know, let's go by ourselves."

He Yuanchao, who was smoking a cigarette in the room and chatting with several other security guards, was not too surprised after hearing what Li Jiefang said. After he put out the cigarette butt, he stood up and said to the crowd.

"Just waiting for what the section chief says,"

"Yes, I only ate dry food and pickles for lunch, but there was no oil or water sticking to it. My stomach is still upset."

As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, several security guards in the room cheered in response, stood up and followed the section chief out.

"Section Chief, tell me, we are obviously here together, how can we have a meal, but those drivers are doing all kinds of things."

Just as the guys were chatting and laughing and walking out, the youngest among the security guards squeezed in front of He Yuanchao and asked his section chief with some confusion.

As soon as the young man finished speaking, the security guards who knew what was going on smiled and said nothing. Those who didn't know what was going on focused on He Yuanchao, waiting for their section chief to explain.

"It's not that the drivers are all different, it's that they bring their families with them, and they want to save some money to supplement the family income. There are seniors and juniors here. Do you think they all have enough to eat just like us, and the whole family is not hungry?"

After listening to He Yuanchao's words, several young guys who had been in high spirits just now suddenly thought of their future days. They instantly lost their interest in joking and followed the section chief out of the hotel door in silence.

After finding a clean and bright state-owned restaurant, He Yuanchao didn't bother to search and ordered the full amount of the subsidy amount for each meal in the factory.

Because he still had a mission, He Yuanchao didn't ask for a drink, and everyone knew the rules, so no one said anything.

They were all young men, and no one was polite when the food was served. In less than 10 minutes, everyone wiped out all the food on the table.

Seeing that everyone was rubbing their bellies, He Yuanchao didn't talk nonsense and asked Li Jiefang to carry the dry food prepared for tomorrow, and then led everyone back to the hotel.

We had to get up early tomorrow, so we didn't talk much. After cleaning up, everyone took a rest early.

There was no words for the whole night. The next day, as soon as a glimmer of light appeared on the horizon, everyone started to get up and get busy.

It was daylight, and the driver who had warmed up the truck drove the truck and filled up the gas at a gas station in the city, and then started driving towards the destination with everyone.

After leaving Chengde City, the road began to become more and more difficult to walk as Master Liu said, but fortunately there were no more accidents. After four or five hours of bumpy roads, the four trucks finally arrived at this trip. The destination is Hongfeng City.

When He Yuanchao took the letter of introduction and finally found the person in charge of the storage station according to the address and asked to pull the meat, the person in charge reluctantly told He Yuanchao the bad news that the meat was gone.
