Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

The next day, Zheng Gang, deputy director of the district public security bureau, brought a group of police officers to the door. They arrested Jia Zhangshi and Yi Zhonghai. The reason for the arrest was simple: provoking trouble and openly insulting public officials.

He Yuzhu also cooperated very well in the testimony session. Among them, Jia Zhang was the most miserable. He was sentenced to six months in prison for multiple crimes. As for Yi Zhonghai, his crime was slightly lighter. He paid a deposit and was detained for 15 days.

Without these two troublemakers, the courtyard became much quieter. As for the other "birds" in the courtyard, they saw He Yuzhu as if he were the King of Hell. They all stayed away from him, fearing that they would offend this evil star and end up in jail.

After He Yuzhu sent He Yushui to Yuan's house, he and Yuan Hao boarded the train to Xiliao Province.

After a day and night of travel, he and Yuan Hao arrived safely in Andong City.

As soon as they walked out of the train station, they saw a man in plain clothes driving a military jeep and slowly parking the car in front of He Yuzhu.

The man carefully took the photo and compared it with He Yuzhu in front of him. After confirming that it was correct, he took the initiative to ask,

"Hello, are you Comrade He Yuzhu?"

He Yuzhu nodded upon hearing this.

"Yes, I am. Who are you?"

The man in plain clothes immediately introduced himself.

"Hello, my name is Xiang Zhili, I'm Mayor Hao's driver, and I came here to pick you up today on Mayor Hao's orders."

When He Yuzhu heard Xiang Zhili's words, he instantly realized that the Mayor Hao he was referring to should be the current Mayor of Andong City, Hao Jinlong, who was once the political commissar of the 38th Army during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.

Thinking of this, he immediately called Yuan Hao to get in the car. As the jeep started slowly, they headed towards the Andong Municipal People's Government Building.

You have to know that in this day and age, cars are very scarce, especially military jeeps like this one. Only officials at or above the municipal level are eligible to purchase them. Some economically backward inland cities may not be able to get them.

The roads in Andong City are relatively empty. Rickshaws and bicycles are the majority on the road. Occasionally, you can see some trucks responsible for transportation. As for cars, there are almost no private cars nowadays, all of them are public.

After driving for an hour, they arrived in front of a four-story Western-style duplex building.

It can be seen that this building must have been built by foreigners in the past, but now it is used as an office building of the People's Government.

Looking at the whole building from the outside, the walls are a bit yellowed, probably because it is quite old. Compared with the surrounding buildings, this building is a typical tall one among short ones.

There is a wooden plaque on the right side of the main entrance of the building, with the words "Andong Municipal People's Government" written in large letters.

The right wall is covered with ivy, and some of the windows on the second and third floors are broken and have not been repaired.

After the driver Xiang Zhili stopped the jeep, He Yuzhu and his group got out.

They followed Xiang Zhili's steps and entered the Andong City Government Building. Because of Xiang Zhili's leadership, the sentry on duty did not come forward to question them.

Since Mayor Hao Jinlong only asked to see He Yuzhu, Yuan Hao was temporarily placed in the hall.

Xiang Zhili brought He Yuzhu to the door of the mayor's office. He knocked gently on the door.

“Knock…knock…”

Mayor Hao Jinlong's voice came from inside the room.

"Please come in..."

Then the driver Xiang Zhili and He Yuzhu entered the office one after another.

After entering the office, the driver Xiang Zhili spoke first.

"Mayor Hao, I have already handed over Comrade He Yuzhu to you."

When Hao Jinlong heard the news, he smiled slightly and nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, Xiao Xiang, thank you for your hard work, go and do your work first."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhili tactfully retreated and closed the door.

When Hao Jinlong saw that there was no one else in the office, he looked at He Yuzhu who was standing opposite him.

"Xiao He, do you find it strange that I would come to you first?"

He Yuzhu nodded.

"Yes, Political Commissar, you specifically asked me to report to you as my first stop. Could it be about the matter about the American spy revealed by the enemy agent 0408? After all, you are still the deputy director of the Liaoxi Provincial Security Bureau."

Upon hearing this, Hao Jinlong waved his hand.

"Xiao He, you guessed wrong. It's not because of this incident. I specially asked you to come to my place first this time, just to reminisce about the past.

Also, don't keep calling them political commissars or commissars. Now that everyone has changed jobs, remember to refer to their positions when you are working!"

When He Yuzhu heard what Hao Jinlong said, he immediately expressed his opinion.

"Yes, Mayor Hao."

After taking a sip of tea, Hao Jinlong continued the previous topic.

"By the way, Xiao He, you are going to Guangdian County to serve as the deputy county magistrate and director of the county public security bureau this time, so I have to give you a heads up.

Guangdian County is not a good place. It is an autonomous county. The people living there are all ethnic minorities. The customs are quite fierce. Some of them are nobles from the old society. You have to be careful and don't get into conflict with the locals, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with them. "

When He Yuzhu heard the news, he nodded gratefully towards Hao Jinlong.

"Mayor Hao, thank you for your reminder and concern. Although I didn't have a deep understanding of the general situation of Guangdian County before I came here, please rest assured that I will do a good job of research after I return and become a competent county leader."

Seeing He Yuzhu's confidence, Hao Jinlong couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

"Xiao He, good job, you are really good. It seems that I didn't make a mistake in choosing you. No wonder your division commander Jiang Chao praised you in front of me when we participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, saying that you are capable and courageous.

Especially this time you successfully cracked a major espionage case that shocked the country, which proves that you are very capable in doing things.

It stands to reason that for your contribution this time, it wouldn't be too much to directly promote you to director, but young people are prone to become proud and make mistakes if they are promoted too quickly, so I only promoted you one level. Don't be discouraged, there is a long way to go, and there will be plenty of opportunities for promotion in the future."

He Yuzhu was quite surprised to hear what Hao Jinlong said, and he nodded modestly in response.

In fact, he had never thought about the issue of being promoted two levels. He felt that being promoted from a section chief to a deputy director was already very good, and that one must learn to be content as a person.
