Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

But after this kid arrived at the army, he was still not honest. After all, he was spoiled at home. After arriving at the army, he could not stand the constraints. He often made small mistakes without making big mistakes. For this, he was criticized by his leaders many times and was even put in solitary confinement. However, this kid relied on his father, and the army did not dare to do anything to him.

Later, this guy left the military camp without permission and went out to drink. After drinking too much, he actually molested a young woman on the street. He was beaten black and blue on the spot and was caught on the spot by the brave citizens.

When this kid was held down, he actually shouted who his father was and claimed that he would take revenge on those brave people. The incident became a big deal. After the army found out, they took him back to the army and reported to Lao Liu.

Upon hearing this, Old Liu was furious and immediately ordered him to be expelled from the army and sent to the military court for trial. Upon hearing the news, Mr. Lu immediately went to Old Liu to ask for some leniency, but Old Liu, who was of upright character, was unwilling to give Lu any face. In the end, he insisted on expelling him from the army and sent him to the military court to sentence him to two years. Thus, the future of this young man named Lu was ruined.

It was also because of this incident that Old Liu offended the man named Lu.

Mr. Lu was a very capable person and was good at scheming. So even though he was implicated because of his son's affairs and kept a low profile for a few years, after the storm started, he was promoted to the position of deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee by relying on his connections.

This guy has always been brooding over the fact that Old Liu ruined his son's future, and secretly vowed to take revenge on Old Liu. After the storm, when he became the deputy director of the Sijiu City Revolutionary Committee, he kept a close eye on Old Liu's family.

Lao Liu was a member of the army. The Revolutionary Committee had no way to deal with the army, and there were also requirements from above not to mess up the army. Lao Liu was very low-key after he became famous, so this guy could never find any handle on Lao Liu and had no way to deal with him.

He wanted to do something bad to Lao Liu's children, but Lao Liu's children were very hardworking and went to work in other places early on. They did quite well in their respective positions. Mr. Lu was out of reach and had no way to do anything to Lao Liu and his children.

Eventually, this guy set his sights on Lao Liu's lover, Aunt Zhang, and began to secretly collect dirt on Aunt Zhang.

When Aunt Zhang publicly opposed the district committee's chaos and advocated focusing on current work at the meeting, this man named Lu found evidence against her and secretly bribed some district committee staff to write letters of denunciation, framing Aunt Zhang and saying that she was a capitalist-roader and so on.

This gave Mr. Lu an opportunity. He immediately sent people to arrest Aunt Zhang, criticized her, and paraded her through the streets with a dunce cap on her head.

When Lin Geng went to visit Aunt Zhang that day, Aunt Zhang had already been arrested by the Revolutionary Committee for three days. Lin Geng was furious when he heard this. After two or three years of contact with Lao Liu and Aunt Zhang, the two families had become closer and closer. Lin Geng had saved Lao Liu's life, so Lao Liu and his wife were naturally very good to Lin Geng and treated him like their own son or nephew.

Lin Geng now has no relatives in this world. Apart from Yu Li's family, he basically has no relatives to speak of. Gradually, he begins to regard Old Liu and Aunt Zhang as his uncle and aunt.

So every now and then, Lin Geng would visit them at their home. Even if Old Liu was not at home, but in the army, Lin Geng would often visit Aunt Zhang.

When he suddenly heard that Aunt Zhang had been arrested by the Revolutionary Committee, Lin Geng felt as if his head was hit by a hammer. His head was buzzing and he was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot. He suppressed his anger and asked Yu Li to take the child home first. He went to the Revolutionary Committee to ask what happened and try to see Aunt Zhang first.

Yu Li also realized the seriousness of the problem and knew the relationship between Lin Geng and Aunt Zhang. Although she knew that it might be dangerous for Lin Geng to go to the Revolutionary Committee to see Aunt Zhang at this time, she did not say anything. She nodded, asked Lin Geng to be careful, and then went home with the child.

Lin Geng rushed to the location of the Sijiucheng Revolutionary Committee as quickly as possible, but he had calmed down by then and knew that rushing in would not work. The Sijiucheng Revolutionary Committee was not the steel rolling mill Revolutionary Committee. It managed the Revolutionary Committees of all enterprises and institutions in the entire Sijiucheng. At this time, it had enormous power, even above many violent agencies.

Even if he was in a hurry, he couldn't force his way in, unless he ignored everything and just beat to death or maimed all the people who blocked his way. Otherwise, he couldn't get in at all. What's more, when the Revolutionary Committee arrested people, they didn't necessarily lock them up in the Revolutionary Committee, but were detained in many places. So it was useless for him to rush in, because Aunt Zhang might not be locked up in this place.

Now that he had calmed down, he began to think. After thinking for a while, he remembered someone he knew who worked at the Revolutionary Committee of Sijiu City, so he asked the person standing guard at the door of the Revolutionary Committee whether the person he knew was there.

That person happened to be in the Revolutionary Committee at that moment, so he brought Lin Geng in.

Although this person was not a leader in the Revolutionary Committee, he had a good relationship with Li Huaide. He had been to the steel rolling mill for dinner several times. Li Huaide asked Lin Geng to accompany him for a drink. This person knew that Li Huaide valued Lin Geng very much and that Lin Geng was a capable young man with many connections, so he did not look down on Lin Geng and had a good chat with Lin Geng at the table.

Later, this person asked Li Huaide to find Lin Geng and asked Lin Geng to help him get a thirty-year-old ginseng. Lin Geng helped him with this. Anyway, he had a lot of ginsengs that were equivalent to thirty years old in his medicine fields, and there were also a lot of ginsengs of various years stored in his warehouse. It was not a big deal to give him one.

But at this time, it is very difficult for ordinary people to get such 30-year-old ginseng. First, the production of wild ginseng in Northeast China is very low. Even if there is any, it has been collected in advance by many special groups of people. After all, this thing can sometimes save lives. Therefore, even if there is ginseng in the pharmacy, most of them are ginseng of insufficient age. Ginseng with an older age is now out of stock in the market.

Lin Geng was able to get him a thirty-year-old ginseng, which made the man very grateful to Lin Geng, because this ginseng was used to save his father's life. However, he looked in many places and met many people, but could not find ginseng of this age, which made him very worried.

But he didn't expect that he just wanted to give it a try, so he went to Li Huaide and asked Lin Geng to help him find it. Lin Geng actually got him a 30-year-old ginseng, which made him very excited and very grateful to Lin Geng.

This time when Lin Geng came to find him, this man was still slightly surprised, but he immediately came out and warmly welcomed Lin Geng in.

Lin Geng did not follow him in. Instead, he handed him a cigarette, gestured, and took him to a relatively remote alley nearby. He reached into the small world, took out an exquisite long box and handed it to the man.
