Yan Jiecheng's Leisurely Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 57 Fishing
After a period of development, the ironworks' condition became better and better, and its output increased day by day.

The reason why Li Huaide came to the ironworks was to change the atmosphere of the ironworks and increase production.

Now that his goal has been achieved, as long as he stabilizes for a period of time, he can complete the task successfully and return to the steel mill. How can he not be happy?

Li Huaide is a person who values ​​enjoyment. When he was happy, he planned to reward himself well.

But he had only been in the ironworks for a short time, and he didn't know the details of some people. He didn't dare to rashly look for targets to satisfy his own selfish desires.

Since Meng Dezhi's desire cannot be satisfied, he can only think of other ways to kill time.

So Li Huaide invited the two deputy factory directors Hou and Wang, Yan Jiecheng, and Shi Yunhua, the chief of the security department, a total of five people, to go fishing in the river near the ironworks to kill time and improve their relationship.

Deputy Factory Directors Hou and Wang readily accepted Li Huaide's invitation.

As for Shi Yunhua and Yan Jiecheng, they had no right to refuse at all.

So the next morning, a group of five set off towards their destination.

Li Huaide's car definitely couldn't accommodate five people, plus a driver, so Yan Jiecheng could only sit in the sidecar driven by Shi Yunhua and follow behind Li Huaide's jeep.

After arriving at the place, Li Huaide, Hou Chunsheng and Wang Shaoquan took out their fishing equipment and started fishing enthusiastically.

Shi Yunhua looked around vigilantly, acting as a guard.

As for Yan Jiecheng, he started to build an earthen stove with the help of the driver. According to Li Huaide, the fish he caught himself would taste better.

But when Yan Jiecheng built the earthen stove and took out all kinds of kitchen utensils, there was still no movement from Li Huaide and the other two.

Yan Jiecheng looked at the three people who were still full of confidence and couldn't help but wonder if all his work was in vain.

By noon, Yan Jiecheng was completely convinced that all his work had been in vain.

Li Huaide and the other two also lost their patience at this time, and Wang Shaoquan looked at Shi Yunhua who was on guard at the side and said.

"Lao Shi, this place you found is too unreliable. I haven't caught any fish in such a long time. With my skills, this shouldn't be possible."

At this time, Li Huaide couldn't help but say.

"It's a bit strange. Is there no fish here?"

Shi Yunhua's mouth twitched and he couldn't help cursing in his heart.

"You were so busy chatting and laughing that you didn't even notice the fish had taken the bait. Even if there were a lot of fish, you couldn't just jump into the basket."

Although he thought so in his heart, facing the questioning of the two leaders, Shi Yunhua could only speak with a smile.

"Two leaders, there are a lot of fish in the river. It may be due to the weather that the fish are not coming out to feed."

Yan Jiecheng, who was standing by, was also speechless after hearing Shi Yunhua's excuse.

If you want to find an excuse, at least find a reliable one. It's the nice autumn weather now, and it's the perfect time for fishing. This is just a lie.

Sure enough, after hearing Shi Yunhua's explanation, Wang Shaoquan couldn't help rolling his eyes and was about to teach Shi Yunhua a lesson.

At this time, Li Huaide tried to smooth things over and said with a smile.

"That's possible. It seems we didn't come at the right time today. We can come back another day. It would be a pity to destroy the earthen stove."

Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng quickly spoke.

"Boss, what's the pity? If it can't be used this time, there will always be next time. It will come in handy."

As they were talking, Li Huaide and his companions packed up their things and prepared to return home. Coincidentally, at this moment, there was a sudden noise in the bushes not far from them, and a hare flew past them.

After seeing the hare, Li Huaide's eyes lit up and he said to everyone.

"Since we didn't catch anything from fishing, let's go hunting in the mountains tomorrow. I don't believe we'll come back empty-handed."

As soon as Li Huaide said this, Shi Yunhua couldn't help but groan inwardly. Others didn't know this, but he was well aware of the dangers in the mountains, so he tried to persuade him with a sad face.

"Secretary Li, this mountain is full of dangers. Why don't you not go there?"

After today's heart-to-heart talk while fishing, Hou Chunsheng, Wang Shaoquan and Li Huaide became closer.

Now seeing Shi Yunhua reject Li Huaide's suggestion, Hou Chunsheng immediately stood up and spoke.

"Shi Yunhua, what's wrong with you? Secretary Li works day and night for the factory, and now he just wants to go hunting in the mountains to relax, but you keep making excuses. What do you want to do?"

After being confronted by Hou Chunsheng, Shi Yunhua could no longer say anything against it. He could only look to Yan Jiecheng for help, hoping that he would come out and help persuade him.

Are you kidding? Hou Chunsheng has already said so. If Yan Jiecheng continues to persuade him, it means he doesn't take Deputy Director Hou seriously.

So after receiving Shi Yunhua's pleading look, Yan Jiecheng could only pretend not to see it.

On the way back, when Yan Jiecheng and Shi Yunhua were sitting on the sidecar, Shi Yunhua couldn't help but complain.

"Section Chief Yan, these mountains are densely forested and overgrown with grass, and are fraught with danger. Even experienced hunters in the mountains can't guarantee safety, let alone Secretary Li and his men. Why didn't you help persuade them just now?"

Yan Jiecheng shook his head and said with a wry smile.

"Chief Shi, don't you see what happened just now? The three of them look determined to do what they want. Do you think it would be any use for me to speak up? All we can do now is provide good escort and protection."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yunhua could only sigh in resignation.

To be on the safe side, Shi Yunhua discussed with Yan Jiecheng, hoping that Yan Jiecheng could help with protection during tomorrow's hunting trip. Yan Jiecheng readily agreed.

So after returning to the ironworks, Yan Jiecheng followed Shi Yunhua to the weapons room of the security department.

Although the ironworks is just a factory, it has quite a lot of weapons.

Looking at the various weapons in the weapons room, Yan Jiecheng almost thought he had entered a weapons exhibition.

There are not only various types of firearms, but also two homemade cannons.

"Chief Shi, don't you have too many weapons?"

Seeing Yan Jiecheng's shocked expression, Shi Yunhua said.

"Chief Yan, you don't know what I'm talking about. The last time I went on a business trip to the steel mill, the weapons room there was even more exaggerated. It was full of standard weapons, even howitzers."

"No way! I've been working in the steel mill for several years, how come I haven't seen it?"

"Chief Yan, the steel mill is not like our countryside. Guns are not a big deal here, but they have strict control over heavy weapons. How could they be easily seen?"

Thinking about the location of the steel rolling mill, Yan Jiecheng suddenly realized.

That’s right, the steel rolling mill is located in the old city, so of course the management is strict.

At this time, Shi Yunhua brought a weapons cabinet and said to Yan Jiecheng.

"Section Chief Yan, hunting is the leadership's job. We security guards prefer shorter ones. Come and pick one."
