Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

"Besides being unfilial to his elders—no, unfilial to you—does He Yuzhu have any other problems?"

The three men were speechless after Qian Rongxuan's question.

Yan Bugui said, "His family often eats good food; they eat meat almost every day."

Qian Rongxuan was taken aback for a moment, then dismissed it. Some of the meat in He Yuzhu's house was from dishes he had prepared for him, which he had given to He Yuzhu.

How do I find out about this problem?
If He Yuzhu eventually betrays him, wouldn't that be a joke?

"Comrade, you can't say that someone's meat is of dubious origin just because they eat it."

You need to provide evidence. You can't just accept whatever you say.

If everyone were like you, there would be far too many people who should be arrested.

Liu Haizhong said, "Director Qian, although we don't have any evidence, you can find out by sending someone to investigate."

He was the cook at our steel rolling mill. As the saying goes, if the cook doesn't steal, the harvest won't be good.

If he didn't steal it from our steel mill canteen, where did he get his meat from?

Faced with Liu Haizhong's questioning, Qian Rongxuan had no choice but to respond.

All he could do was send someone to investigate.

Guo Feng was summoned soon.

"Director, you're looking for me."

Qian Rongxuan said, "These three comrades reported that He Yuzhu, the canteen manager of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, was stealing meat from the canteen."

Have someone investigate this.

Guo Feng was taken aback, looked at Qian Rongxuan, and then saw the hint in his eyes.

He knew what to do; he would arrange for Li Pan to go to the steel rolling mill to investigate.

When Yi Zhonghai saw that the report was successful, his face was full of excitement: "And Xu Damao too. He's now the deputy director of the steel rolling mill's song committee."

He's done so many bad things.

Seeing that Qian Rongxuan didn't respond, Guo Feng knew what to do.

Qian Rongxuan said to the three people, "I know about your report. You can go back first, and we will notify you when the investigation results are available."

Fearing retaliation, Yan Bugui asked, "Director Qian, could you please not reveal what we reported?"

Director Qian said, "Comrade, one should be upright and honest."

Since you have evidence of their mistakes, you shouldn't be afraid of this or that.

Don't worry, if they dare to retaliate, I absolutely won't stand idly by.

This reason did not reassure Yan Bugui.

But he had no other choice.

Unbeknownst to the three, their report had already spread throughout the Industry Bureau.

After Guo Feng left, he immediately arranged for Li Pan to lead a team to investigate the matter in front of everyone in the department.

Sister Yu, who had gone to dinner with us last time, asked to come along as well.

She had been craving He Yuzhu's cooking ever since she ate it last time.

While everyone else treated the report as a joke, one person took it to heart.

This person was none other than Meng Bo, who had replaced Xu Damao.

There were only so many positions available, so Xu Damao continued as deputy director, while Meng Bo couldn't find a good one.

He didn't want to settle, so he stayed at the Industrial Bureau.

When he heard that someone had filed a formal complaint against Xu Damao, he knew his chance had come.

Meng Bo quietly went to Qian Rongxuan's office: "Director, I heard that some workers from the steel rolling mill have come to file a formal complaint."

As the director, Qian Rongxuan was very familiar with the thoughts of his subordinates.

Meng Bo has been jumping around for the past six months, trying to find a good position.

However, the good spots had already been taken.

He lacks the backing to make room for him.

They must be eyeing the position of deputy director of the steel rolling mill's song committee.

"Three workers came to report it. However, most of the allegations were untrue."

They demand that their neighbors be filial to them, and they become dissatisfied if their neighbors are not.

This is the first time I've ever heard of something like this.

Meng Bo laughed and said, "Anything can happen in this world. It's not surprising that a few people have mental issues. I've heard of Director He from the steel mill. He's not stupid; he wouldn't treat his neighbor like an elder."

However, that Deputy Director Xu has quite a few problems.

The accusations against him here are a foot high.

Another part consisted of whistleblower letters forwarded by the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry.

Qian Rongxuan said calmly, "Their accusations against He Yuzhu are obviously baseless. The accusations against Xu Damao are probably not true either."

Meng Bo smiled and said, "I haven't investigated Xu Damao, so I don't know much about him."

But I know he has big ambitions.

Not long ago, I even reported Director Li to Deputy Director Luo.

Qian Rongxuan did not express his opinion, mainly because he was afraid of offending Li Huaide's father-in-law.

"Xiao Meng, Director Li did not say that Xu Damao has a problem."

Meng Bo understood Qian Rongxuan's implication and then left.

After he left, he went to Luo Zhihui and asked him for help.

Deputy Director Nie had broken ties with Xu Damao and had long wanted to deal with him.

However, Li Huaide has always protected Xu Damao. They didn't want to offend Li Huaide, so they kept waiting for an opportunity.

This time, Meng Bo is going to take the lead, and Luo Zhihui doesn't mind going along with it.

Having received Luo Zhihui's promise, Meng Bo walked out full of confidence.

He called Li Huaide directly: "Director Li, it's me, Meng Bo."

Li Huaide was visibly taken aback when he received the call. He only knew Meng Bo; they weren't really friends.

He still smiled and said, "Director Meng, what can I do for you?"

Meng Bo smiled and said, "I wonder if Director Li is free tonight? I have something to discuss with you."

Li Huaide hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

Meng Bo is a leader in the Industry Bureau, so he can't very well refuse to give him face.

He Yuzhu also learned about what Yi Zhonghai and his two companions had done.

He wasn't angry; on the contrary, he was somewhat impressed.

Throughout their lives, the three of them have become noticeably bolder, even going so far as to file a formal complaint with the Industry Bureau.

You should know that back then, Sha Zhu and the others only dared to secretly write letters of complaint, inciting Sha Zhu to take action against Xu Damao.

If Xu Damao hadn't done something so outrageous that caused Shazhu to lose his wife, he probably wouldn't have stepped down.

Knowing that Li Pan was coming, He Yuzhu had someone prepare the ingredients.

Soon, Li Pan arrived at the steel rolling mill with seven or eight leaders from the Industrial Bureau.

"Welcome, leaders, to the steel rolling mill for inspection."

"Director He, you're too kind. We just received a report and came to investigate."

Then came the questioning, and He Yuzhu directly blamed the source of the meat on the big boss and several other people who weren't in Beijing.

"The factory assigned me to cook for the leaders, and I couldn't refuse. Those were all gifts they gave me as a token of their appreciation."

As for the claim that I took things from the steel rolling mill, that's pure nonsense. You can investigate with the security department; I've never brought a lunchbox from the factory.

After an investigation, He Yuzhu was naturally exonerated.

Everyone understands that this is just a formality.

Only Yi Zhonghai and a few others didn't understand and thought that reporting He Yuzhu would bring him down.

"Director Li has arranged a simple meal for everyone. Please follow me to the cafeteria."

Li Pan and his group were unaware of Meng Bo's situation. Their investigation of Xu Damao was not thorough.

The main reason is that Li Huaide is still protecting Xu Damao, and they don't want to offend Li Huaide.

After the investigation, Xu Damao began his revenge against Yi Zhonghai and his companion.

The workers' picket line arrested the two men and dragged them to the square.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were dumbfounded; neither of them understood what was going on.

With their limited understanding, they simply don't know about the changes happening outside.

Xu Damao didn't dare to go too far, so after causing a little trouble, he let them go.

He'll deal with these two slowly. (End of Chapter)
