Siheyuan: Joined the Intelligence Department, my father is a national level

"Huo! Youquan! You hunted all these wild pheasants today! You are amazing! It's a great harvest today!"

As soon as Li Youquan stepped into the intersection of Nanluoguxiang, he heard the voice of the aunt from the "Intelligence Department" coming from the side.

Hearing the voice, Li Youquan smiled and looked towards her. This was the matchmaker who had introduced him to a girl before—Mrs. Zhou.

"Yes, Grandma Zhou! I shot all these pheasants from the mountains! My hunting skills have improved a lot recently! I am getting more and more proficient at hunting wild game!"

After hearing this, Grandma Zhou was also happy for Li Youquan from the bottom of her heart. She grinned and nodded:

"Not bad, not bad! Hunting is also a skill! You have mastered this skill! In the future, you can help your aunt support the family, and your aunt will have a more relaxed time!"

Li Youquan smiled slightly upon hearing this and said:

"Yes! Aunt Zhou, I won't talk to you for now! My family is waiting for me to go back for dinner! I'm going home first! We can talk later when we have time!"

As Li Youquan spoke, he raised his hand and waved to Grandma Zhou. After saying goodbye to Grandma Zhou, he turned and walked towards Director Han's house.

Arriving at the gate of the compound where Director Han of the Purchasing Department lived, Li Youquan turned around and walked into Director Han's door.

"Director Han! I'm here to bring you a pheasant!"

Li Youquan walked to Director Han's office, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

The door creaked open, and Director Han looked at Li Youquan, who was holding three huge pheasants in his hands, and a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

"Hey! Li Youquan, did you go up the mountain today? How did you kill so many wild pheasants at once? You are so amazing!"

Director Han said with a look of surprise on his face. Li Youquan smiled slightly after hearing this and said:

"Yes! Didn't you ask me to hunt wild pheasants yesterday to nourish your daughter's body?"

"It just so happened that I had recovered from my illness and had nothing to do at home, so I went up the mountain! Today was also a coincidence, I came across a wild pheasant's nest just after I got up the mountain!"

"But Director Han, I can only give you one of the three pheasants. I plan to take the other two back to nourish my sister and aunt. It's not easy for them to take care of me at home during this period."

"Take this wild pheasant home and eat it first! If you like it and want more, I'll go get it for you in the mountains when I have time!"

Li Youquan looked at Director Han standing in front of him with a smile.

Director Han just wanted a pheasant at the beginning, but now he heard what Li Youquan said.

She immediately smiled and said:

"I understand! A wild pheasant will do!"

"Youquan, take the remaining two pheasants back with you to nourish your mother and sister!"

"Oh, right! My sister brought me some eggs today. It's a good opportunity for you to take some back with you!"

Director Han said this and first took the pheasant handed to him by Li Youquan.

Then she turned and walked into the office, took out a big red bag and handed it to Li Youquan.

Li Youquan looked at the small bag of eggs that Director Han handed over. He politely declined and said:

"No, no, no! Director Han, I can't take this egg! Your daughter just gave birth to a child recently, you can give this egg to her to nourish her body! I won't accept this thing!"

When Director Han heard Li Youquan being so polite, he immediately hung the bag on Li Youquan's hand.

She pushed Li Youquan's hand holding the bag and said cheerfully:

"Youquan, what are you talking about? Just take the egg I told you to take!"

"It's just a small bag of eggs, not many! I've been busy with a lot of things at the neighborhood office, and I didn't have time to visit you when you were sick! Just take these eggs! Otherwise, I'll be really sorry!"

"Yes! I still have to give you the money for the pheasant. Let's get this one thing straight! Youquan, help me figure out how much it is!"

Director Han said this generously and took out some money from his pocket.

After hearing what Director Han said, Li Youquan stopped refusing and took the eggs.

Director Han was usually nice to him and now he even gave him a bag of eggs.

Li Youquan accepted Director Han's favor, so he naturally gave her a favorable price for the pheasant.

He smiled as he looked at Director Han who was paying the bill, and said with a gentle smile:

"Director Han, you know the price of wild pheasants in the market. It's 40 cents per pound."

"You've always taken care of me in the compound! I'm very grateful to you! I won't charge you 40 cents per pound for this wild pheasant. I'll sell it to you at 20 cents per pound!"

As Li Youquan spoke, he picked up the small beam scale placed on the windowsill of Director Han's office and weighed the pheasant. It was five and a half kilograms in total.

"Five and a half pounds! Director Han, I'll sell it to you based on five pounds for one dollar!"

Li Youquan said this with a smile on his face.

Director Han listened to what Li Youquan said. Although she was grateful in her heart, she still waved her hand and said:

"No! I appreciate your kindness, Youquan! But we'll charge you 40 cents per pound!"

"I know all about your family's situation. You and your aunt are both unemployed now, and it's not easy to make money! Although I'm in charge of the factory, I can't usually help you with anything. Last time you applied for a job, I didn't arrange a position for you..."

"Here are two dollars! Take it and go home quickly!"

Director Han took out two dollars and stuffed them into Li Youquan's hand.

When Li Youquan heard what Director Han said, he felt warm in his heart and was about to refuse.

Director Han waved his hand and said:

"Just take it if I tell you to! If you keep refusing, I won't collect game from you anymore!"

Director Han said this and walked Li Youquan all the way to the gate of the compound. Li Youquan knew that he could not win the argument with Director Han, so he thanked him with a few words and left with his things.

Li Youquan came to Compound No. 95 carrying a bag of eggs and two wild pheasants.

As they stepped into the gate of the courtyard, everyone's eyes suddenly widened when they saw the wild pheasant in Li Youquan's hand.

Most people in the compound are materialistic. In the past, Li Youquan's family was extremely poor.

When they saw Li Youquan and his family, they all hid as if they had seen the plague god, fearing that their family members would ask them to borrow food or money.

Now seeing Li Youquan coming back with so many things, his attitude towards Li Youquan changed 180 degrees from before.

Especially when Li Youquan brought two bowls of meat and vegetables yesterday to thank the two families who had helped him when he was sick.

This group of people all knew that Li Youquan was a grateful person.

Many people envy and hate Lao Gong and Lao Zhou, and many others deeply regret that they did not help Li Youquan's family when he was sick.

This way they can also have a bowl of meat dishes with a variety comparable to those during Chinese New Year!

Several people came to talk to Li Youquan with smiles on their faces, and many people came up to him and asked if the things he was carrying were heavy, and insisted on helping Li Youquan carry these things home.

Li Youquan looked at the faces of the people in the compound, and a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes.
