Siheyuan: I Called the Police at the Beginning

Chapter 22 Analysis of Yi Zhonghai

Faced with Xu Damao's appeal, everyone looked at each other and no one responded.

Although Geng Ping'an's suggestion seems to make sense.

A siheyuan cannot be without a master.

But compared to the way he likes to put on airs and show bad temper in front of others, he also hits his son's bangs at home every day.

Deep down, everyone still trusts Yi Zhonghai, who is good at disguise.

They were also used to letting Yi Zhonghai handle conflicts for them.

Even though everyone knew that Yi Zhonghai had just been dismissed from his post by the Sub-district Office, they still subconsciously felt that Yi Zhonghai was the most suitable person.

"That's it, and you still want to be an official."

"It's just like what's written in the original book, a fool, he has the ambition to be an official, but he doesn't have the fate to be one."

"If you can't even manage the relationships with the people in the courtyard, how can you expect to become a cadre in a steel mill?"

Observe the changes in people's expressions.

Geng Ping'an also knew that they really looked down on Liu Haizhong, the second uncle.

I couldn't help but curse Liu Haizhong in my heart for being so disappointing.

It was obvious that he and Xu Damao had brought things to this point, creating the best opportunity for him.

It was obvious that Yi Zhonghai had just committed serious ideological problems and his prestige was plummeting.

His bangs have a huge advantage in terms of timing and location.

But the others in the field still didn't want to support him.

There is not even a single person’s support!
But people choose for themselves.

What else can be done?

I can only continue to push forward.

Geng Ping'an pondered the only good thing about Liu Haizhong.

In order to become an official and for his leaders to see his abilities, Liu Haizhong tried his best to perform well in the factory.

He teaches all his disciples with all his heart and soul.

Later, he could even pay his apprentice to do business, and he managed to cultivate a real talent and become the head of a factory.

Geng Ping'an coughed and said to everyone.

"Everyone, listen to me. Although Second Master is usually harsh and difficult to talk to, everyone actually misunderstands his character."

"As the saying goes, a strict teacher produces excellent students. Second Master has high expectations for others because he hopes that the younger generation in the courtyard will become talented and have a promising future."

"Think carefully, have all of Second Master's apprentices grown into third-level or fourth-level workers?"

"And during the holidays, Second Master's house is always crowded with people who come to visit his apprentices to express their sincere gratitude."

"It is precisely because Second Master is open-minded and strict with his apprentices that he has been able to train a large number of talents for the steel mill."

"When the second uncle becomes the first uncle, I believe that if the younger generation has any questions to ask him, he will definitely teach them seriously and cultivate talents for the courtyard."

At this point, Geng Pingan suddenly changed the subject.

He asked everyone the most fatal question.

"On the other hand, have any of you seen Yi Zhonghai's disciples visit him during festivals?"

"Look at Yi Zhonghai again. How many of his disciples have become successful?"

"So, no matter how nice the words are, they are useless. We should only look at the actual results."

"As the great man said, if you don't investigate, you don't have the right to speak."

"We can't just listen to Yi Zhonghai's boasting."

"Don't be fooled by Yi Zhonghai's constant teachings about respecting the elderly and loving the young, and his usual willingness to help others."

"How many practical and good things has he actually done for everyone?"

"He just talks about it, making everyone think he's generous and fair."

"Think carefully, aren't the only families he treats well the Jia family, whom he treats as his elderly parents, and the deaf old lady who, like him, has no family left and has always supported him unconditionally?"

"They all have interests that benefit Yi Zhonghai."

"First, let's talk about Jia Dongxu. As Yi Zhonghai's direct disciple and from the same courtyard, he's like Yi Zhonghai's half-son." "However, Yi Zhonghai not only blackmailed us morally, but also used our money to support the Jia family, defrauded donations, and always favored the Jia family whenever something happened."

"In fact, he never spent any of his own money to help the Jia family overcome their difficulties, nor did he donate money to other families in greater need."

"His monthly salary is over 80 yuan, so he only needs to donate a small portion of his monthly salary."

"Not only can he support the Jia family with his own strength, but even providing everyone in the compound with a meal of meat every month would be a simple matter."

Once again, the matter of Yi Zhonghai's illegal donation fraud and the fact that he was the richest man in the hospital were brought up.

This made Yi Zhonghai look unhappy.

Geng Pingan continued.

"Think about it again, everyone. After several years of Yi Zhonghai's hands-on training, why is Jia Dongxu still only a first-class worker?"

"You said Jia Dongxu was a piece of rotten wood and could never learn anything."

"You can't say that all the apprentices assigned to Yi Zhonghai are idiots."

"If we compare them, Yi Zhonghai's technical level should be even stronger than Second Master's."

"So, Yi Zhonghai has hidden his secrets from all his disciples and has not responded to the country's call to train talents for the country."

"In fact, he is a selfish person at heart and is good at disguising himself."

"He clearly kept some of his skills from all his disciples, and even Jia Dongxu didn't learn any real skills. Yet, he still boasts about how fair and selfless he is."

"To put it bluntly, isn't he just afraid that if he teaches his apprentice, he will starve to death? He's afraid that Jia Dongxu will become a talent, then disobey him, slip out of his control, and not provide for his retirement?"

"Finally, the old lady is clearly a five-guarantee household and receives government subsidies."

"What conditions did we have before? Were we a wealthy family? We still wanted to eat meat every day. If we didn't have meat, we would make a fuss and we had to support ourselves!"

"He, Yi Zhonghai, is rich, so it's no problem for him to let the old lady eat meat."

"Why, in the end, under his deliberate guidance, did the entire compound end up supporting an old lady who was not even related to him?"

"Actually, isn't it because Yi Zhonghai is afraid that when he gets old, he'll be like the old lady, with no one to support him and buy him meat every day?"

"He's setting an example for the young people in the yard, telling you to treat him like an old lady in the future, spending your own money to support an old, unrelated, and ex-wife."

Some things cannot be delved into.

Geng Ping'an's analysis was harsh, but it also revealed the essence and truth of the matter.

This finally aroused doubts in some people's minds.

For the first time, people began to question Yi Zhonghai's usual remarks.

Because when they thought about it carefully, they found that it was indeed the case.

You say Yi Zhonghai is a good person, everyone has always said so.

But let me ask you what good things Yi Zhonghai has done for them.

However, they were shocked to find that after repeatedly thinking about their memories, they really couldn't find a single specific good thing.

All we have are the many memories of him favoring the Jia family and helping the Jia family.

"So that's the truth. I always felt that Yi Zhonghai had ulterior motives in what he did, but I couldn't put my finger on why!"

Geng Ping'an's words made Xu Damao suddenly enlightened, and he slapped his thigh.

Said with surprise of sudden realization.

"Yi Zhonghai is in cahoots with the Jia family's idiot Zhu and the deaf old lady. No wonder I always feel that he treats the Jia family differently, and the deaf old lady treats idiot Zhu differently."

"They're still saying that the Jia family is in trouble and that Sha Zhu is such a good person and that everyone should help him."

"This is all an effect deliberately created by Yi Zhonghai."

Xu Damao was the one who vaguely saw Yi Zhonghai's true face of being treacherous but appearing loyal.

But he obviously did not have the courage of Geng Ping'an to expose Yi Zhonghai's disguise in front of everyone.

Moreover, even Xu Damao had obviously not noticed some of Geng Ping'an's in-depth analysis of Yi Zhonghai before.

No wonder Yi Zhonghai, the silly and deaf old lady and others are as close as a family.

It turns out that this is a circle of interests formed by several old, middle-aged and young people with no families left and orphans.

Xu Damao's family is not extinct, and his father is not "dead". No wonder he can never get into their circle.
