Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Qin Dabao took out four large aluminum lunch boxes, two of which contained Dong'an chicken, one contained candied pork elbow, and one contained braised pork.

He opened the lunch box, pinched out two pieces of chicken and fed them to Dajun Daquan. The two boys immediately smiled and forgot that their brother had kicked them just now.

Dabao finally took out two bottles of Moutai. When grandpa saw them, his eyes almost smiled into slits. He drank two bottles of good wine during the Chinese New Year. Now that he had just stopped eating, his eldest grandson brought more. Old Qin wiped the bottles with his jacket sleeves to make them reflect light, and then put them in the kangqin, reluctant to drink them.

When Qin Dabao went to the kitchen, he saw that his second aunt and Cuicui were steaming steamed buns and making cabbage soup. Fortunately, the house now only had the cornmeal he had brought before, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to eat it.

Suddenly, someone outside called out, "Seventeenth Master, Grandma."

Although Old Qin has descendants five generations later in the clan, those over three generations all call him Grandpa. This is unimaginable in later generations, but it is very normal in this era, because there are many people who get married and have children at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and there are many who become grandfathers at the age of thirty. Just imagine, how many generations are there?

Dabao opened the door and went out to see that it was Xiaogoudan. He was holding a rabbit in his hand and smiling at Dabao innocently.

"Uncle Dabao, when did you come?"

"Just arrived a while ago, Goudan? Are you going up the mountain?"

"I set a few traps on the mountain and caught two wild rabbits. I'll give one to Grandpa as a treat."

Qin Dabao didn't pretend to refuse. He knew that this was Goudan's filial piety to his grandfather. He took the rabbit, but before he could say anything, Goudan waved his hand and ran away.

Looking at Goudan's receding back, Qin Dabao sighed. He knew that this fatherless child always had a hurdle in his heart, and the regretted engagement years ago made him unable to raise his head.

The second uncle ran back happily and saw Dabao standing at the gate with a rabbit in his hand. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "What a great job, nephew! I was out for such a short time and you caught a rabbit?"

Qin Dabao raised the rabbit in his hand and said, "I didn't kill it. Goudan set a trap for it and gave it to my grandfather to eat with his wine."

The uncle and nephew went into the house, and Dabao handed the rabbit to his second aunt. There was enough food for today, so there was no need to prepare a rabbit. However, they had to skin it and bleed it quickly. If the blood stayed in the meat, the rabbit meat would be too fishy to eat.

The second uncle solemnly handed the letter of introduction and the certificate to Cuicui with both hands. Cuicui wiped her hands on her clothes again and again before solemnly taking them. The serious expressions of the two people were like the letters of credence exchanged between two countries.

Qin Dabao couldn't help laughing. This was too formal. He was a well-fed man who didn't know the hunger of a hungry man. This certificate and letter of introduction could change the fate of a person or even an entire family.

Four lunch boxes and bowls and chopsticks were placed on the square table. The old lady called out to Dabao: "Grandson, hurry up and eat. Don't you have to rush home soon?"

Qin Dabao sat on the edge of the kang, while Dajun Daquan had already knelt on the kang, their eyes never leaving the dishes.

Old Qin took out half a bottle of Erguotou from somewhere. This was what Dabao asked his father to bring over before the New Year.

When Second Uncle saw the wine, his eyes lit up immediately and he came over with a drooling face: "Dad, why can't you finish this wine? How about I finish some for you?"

Old Qin was so angry at his son's shamelessness that he laughed. He kicked his second uncle out and said, "Get out of the way. I only have half a bottle of wine left. Did you drink that half bottle secretly?"

The second uncle said seriously, "Dad, we've known each other for so many years. Don't you know what kind of person I am? How could I drink your wine secretly? I'm very angry that you've wronged your son like this."

Old Qin couldn't help but kick him again, because he was really itching to see this idiot: "How the hell have I known you for so many years? And I don't know what kind of person you are? If you didn't drink the wine secretly, who did?"

"It was the third brother. It was the third brother who drank secretly. He has been doing this since he was a child."

"Get lost! The third brother and his family have gone to his father-in-law's place. You can't even blame him properly."

"That's your two grandsons, not me."

Da Jun Daquan didn't expect to be shot even when he was lying down. Is this his father? How could he betray his son like this?

Daquan curled his lips and called out "Dad" in his heart, "If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. Come on, let's hurt each other!"

"Grandpa, this wine was drunk secretly by my dad. He also stole your two boxes of cigarettes. Grandma, the fifty cents you lost the day before yesterday was also taken by my dad."

Now it was settled. My second uncle turned around and ran, almost knocking down my second aunt who was carrying steamed bread into the house.

Second Aunt was annoyed: "You wicked thing! Why didn't you hit me to death?" Second Uncle had already run outside. If he had been a step slower, the broom would have come up.

The old lady put down the broom in her hand and patted Da Jun Da Quan on the back of the head: "Eat. Don't learn from your wicked father in the future. My two little grandsons have really round heads, just like their eldest brother. No wonder they are so smart."

Qin Dabao was completely convinced by his grandmother's train of thought. How could this be connected?

The family started to eat. After a while, the second uncle came back. Old Qin glanced at him and sighed: "How could I give birth to such a shameless thing?"

Second Uncle chuckled, took half a bowl of wine from Old Qin's bowl, took the chicken butt handed to him by Cuicui, and started eating and drinking.

Qin Dabao doesn't drink alcohol, but eats the steamed bread by breaking it into pieces. The steamed bread is triangular in shape, and a hole is poke out at the bottom with his fingers, so that the steamed bread with big holes can be steamed thoroughly.

"Grandpa, is Second Uncle qualified to be the village chief?"

Grandpa put down his wine bowl and wiped his graying beard with his large hand. "The accountant is in charge of all village affairs now. The commune notified us a week ago that the village will soon be transformed into a production team. The team leader will be democratically elected by the people."

Second Uncle continued, "I heard that your uncle Qingrong is also running for election. He's been visiting various families these days."

Qin Dabao ate his food and said, "This is normal, Second Uncle. If you do this, I still have my gun. Organize a few more people and go into the mountains in a few days to hunt some wild animals and send them to the city. I will find a connection to exchange them for some food. Then Second Uncle will give some to the villagers, and the position of captain will be guaranteed."

"This one hits the spot!" Uncle Er immediately beamed with joy when he heard it.

Old Qin slapped him on the back of the head and said, "Be more careful. You are so old, but you are no better than a child."

. . . . .

Just when Dabao was having dinner in Qinjiagou, the meeting of middle and high-level officials of the Municipal Bureau had reached a critical moment.

Deputy Director Liu Jingru was reading a stack of documents. He was the only one left among the original senior management of the Municipal Bureau and was still in charge of the secretariat and logistics.

"After a meeting and a decision, the Ministry has submitted it to the higher authorities for approval and has approved Director Lu's restructuring plan, which will be implemented immediately. Now, please allow Director Lu to explain it in detail."

Lu Jianbang looked at the document in his hand and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The framework of the reform in this document could be said to be completely from Qin Dabao's hand. It was because of this document that he had completely established his foothold in the capital.

Thinking of his eldest nephew, a smile appeared on his serious face.

"In the past, the division of responsibilities within our bureau was unclear, which led to overlapping responsibilities between departments and complicated work.

In response to this, the leadership of the bureau has drawn up this plan and submitted it to the ministry and the central government for approval. The current restructuring is as follows:

1. The Secretariat will be abolished and the Administrative Department and the Logistics Department will be established. The Administrative Department will be divided into the Secretarial Department, the Personnel Department, and the Confidential Department.

The Logistics Department consists of the Finance Department, Procurement Department, Security Department, and Firearms Department.

Second, the Criminal Investigation Department will abolish all departments and set up a Criminal Investigation Brigade. Each branch will have a Criminal Investigation Squadron. The specific brigade divisions will be issued in a document after the meeting.

The Third Public Security Department will abolish three departments and change them into five departments, corresponding to the four urban districts and suburbs, to manage the public security of the entire city.

Fourth, the Municipal Bureau will set up a Public Security Brigade, the Branch Bureau will set up a Public Security Squadron, and each police station will set up a Public Security Patrol Team. Detailed explanations on relevant matters will be issued in a document after the meeting.

Fifth, the Preliminary Investigation Section is independent and not under the management of the Criminal Investigation Department. Instead, it is directly managed by the Deputy Director in charge of Criminal Investigation.

As soon as Lu Jianbang finished the announcement, the leaders of the various branches and the middle-level leaders of the municipal bureau were all delighted and talked about it. This restructuring would undoubtedly free up many jobs, and these leaders could place some of their own people in positions, which was a win-win situation for everyone.

Lu Jianbang smiled as he looked at the people below. He was the one who facilitated this restructuring. All key positions would be in his hands. From now on, he would be the one who had the final say in this Beijing City Bureau.

He took out a cigarette box and gave one to Wang Guohua and Liu Jingru. Wang Guohua laughed and said, "Jianbang, your smoking has become less sophisticated. What's going on? You only have two packs of special cigarettes every month, but you're reluctant to give one to me and Lao Liu?"

Lu Jianbang gave a bitter laugh: "Come on, am I that stingy? It's because of that little bastard at home that he coughed when he smoked other cigarettes, so my wife confiscated all my rations of cigarettes and alcohol, forcing me to only smoke this."

Liu Jingru asked curiously: "Old Lu, don't you have only two daughters? They are still in high school, and this daughter is fighting with you for cigarettes?"

Wang Guohua couldn't help laughing: "No? It's his eldest nephew. That kid is a troublemaker. He is spoiled by his whole family and has Jianbang under his thumb."

Lu Jianbang frowned: "Don't talk nonsense, he will be back to work tomorrow, and he always calls me Uncle Wang. Just believe me, quickly put away all your good things, fortify your defenses and clear the countryside, otherwise you will have nothing left."

Wang Guohua glared at him: "He dares!"

Lu Jianbang sneered: "He doesn't dare? Don't forget, he is the apple of your sister-in-law's eye. If you don't give him good things, your sister-in-law will come to your house and rummage. You know your sister-in-law's temper."

When Wang Guohua heard this, he shuddered. Lu Jianbang's wife Bai Xiuying was the most unreasonable person in the world. Among his comrades, there was really no one who was not afraid of her.

Liu Jingru was completely confused. He was not very familiar with Lu Jianbang and Wang Guohua, and was too embarrassed to ask further questions. He became interested in Lu Jianbang's nephew, but he never expected that this little devil was actually recruited by him...
