Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

At Widow Hua's house, Cheng Jianmin was sleeping soundly with her in his arms. His snoring was so loud that the window paper was shaking.

Suddenly, there were bang bang bang sounds coming from the door. Cheng Jian was still drunk and Hua Guafu was a light sleeper, and she had gone to bed early, so she woke up all of a sudden. She lifted her arm that was pressing on her chest and cursed: "Damn! It's so heavy!" She straightened up, put on a thin cotton jacket, and listened carefully.

There were a few more bangs. She frowned, got off the kang, walked to the outer room, gently opened the door, and whispered, "Who is it?"

A voice came from the door: "Open the door quickly."

The widow gritted her teeth and cursed: "Stupid B."

She walked quickly to the gate, unbolted it, and stuck her head out. She looked around and saw that only Li Erhe was standing in front of the gate. She couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Are you crazy? Are you horny? I've told you several times not to come when that old ghost is here. If you want to die, don't take me with you."

Li Erhe's face was still a little pale, and he stamped his feet anxiously: "Oh, Xiaoyu, am I the kind of person who doesn't know the seriousness of the matter? Something happened, something happened..."

"Don't scare me, what happened?"

"That old ghost's precious son got into trouble and was taken to the police station. Now, Cheng Jianping is here and is forcing me to come find that old ghost."

Widow Hua pulled Li Erhe in, peeked outside, and when she saw no one was around, she closed the door and whispered, "Tell me the details of what happened."

Li Erhe recounted in detail what happened at the grain station in the afternoon. Widow Hua patted her chest and her emotions surged. Li Erhe's eyes widened.

The widow kicked him and said angrily, "It's not like I haven't seen it before, so don't act so useless." Then she cheered up and said, "Well done! That brat is no good either. Last time he ran into me on the street, he reached into my arms in front of so many people and even pinched me. I was in pain for three days. This time, he's getting his comeuppance."

"Xiaoyu, what should we do?" He gestured with his chin: "Should we tell him?"

The widow nodded and said, "We have to tell him. We can't lose the big picture because of the small details. Hurry up and go into the house to wake him up."

Li Erhe opened the door curtain and entered the house, followed by Hua Guafu.

Cheng Jianmin was sleeping soundly with his bare chest and legs spread out. Li Erhe pushed him twice and whispered, "Stationmaster, Stationmaster... wake up."

Cheng Jianmin didn't listen at all. The widow came in with half a bucket of cold water and kicked Li Erhe: "Get out of here, you useless piece of shit. You're just good-looking."

Li Erhe did not dare to refute and retreated to the side. The widow Hua took a mouthful of cold water and sprayed it on Cheng Jianmin's face.

Cheng Jianmin woke up with a startled cry of "Oh my god!" Before he could react, the second sip of cold water arrived. This time he was completely awake. He turned over and stood up, wiping his face while shouting, "What are you doing? I was sleeping soundly."

The widow pouted and said, "Wake up quickly, something has happened to your precious son."

Cheng Jianmin shook his head: "Give me the water scoop, I'm so thirsty, what happened?"

Li Erhe said: "Stationmaster."

Cheng Jianmin was so frightened that he threw the water scoop away: "Fuck! When did you get here?"

Li Erhe felt extremely aggrieved. "Such an adult has been standing here for a long time, and you didn't even notice? When the hell did you go blind?" Unfortunately, he could only say these words in his heart and had to put on a smile on his face.

"Stationmaster, Director Cheng asked me to come to you. Xiaozhi had an accident this afternoon."

"Jianping asked you to look for me? He's back? What happened to that kid? Did he have a fight with someone?"

"That little girl from the police station that afternoon, Lin Yuxiu, took a note from the commune to our grain station to get rations. Xiaozhi not only refused to give them to her, but also slapped her in the face.

The little girl left crying. Not long after, several people from the police station came and beat Xiaozhi in the office, dragged her out by her hair, and when Hou Dabo and his men tried to take Xiaozhi back, the leader of the police station opened fire...

"Fuck! He even fired a gun? This brat never does anything serious all day and just keeps causing trouble for me. Who did he shoot? Did he send him to the hospital?"

"They didn't hit anyone, they just fired two shots at the ground, but our men didn't dare move. They just watched Xiaozhi being dragged to the police station by the hair."

Cheng Jianmin took the clothes and put them on one by one: "The police station has a new director. Secretary Dong was talking about it when we were drinking at noon today. Although this director is young, he is very cruel. He beat two militiamen to death on the spot yesterday and wiped out Wang Shanxiang's entire family in Xishan Village.

Secretary Dong told us to find a way to take down this young director, otherwise we would have to be more careful in the commune. Before he even finished speaking, this little calf ran into the gun. Oh, what a headache! Why didn't you come to me earlier?

"I was thinking about finding you, the stationmaster. Wouldn't I have to contact Director Cheng then? I went to great lengths to find Director Cheng's phone number, and finally found him. But Director Cheng just came to the grain station, and judging by his expression, he didn't look too happy."

He didn't mention Qi Tianle, the deputy director of the grain station, at all, so all the expressions and actions Qi Tianle made in the afternoon were in vain.

Cheng Jianmin went downstairs to put on his shoes: "Jianmin's temper got worse after he got promoted. He didn't even think about it. If it weren't for me, would he have been transferred to the branch office to become a deputy section chief? He's still not happy? I'm damned unhappy."

The widow buttoned his clothes gently and asked, "Will you come back tonight?"

Cheng Jianmin pinched her cheek and said, "It's tough. I don't know how long I'll be busy. I won't be back. Go to bed early and bolt the door."

"Oh, I know. You're annoying."

She walked out with Cheng Jianmin on her arm. Cheng Jianmin twirled his fingers and said, "What did you put on your face, woman? Your face is so smooth."

"What can I put on? My family is so poor, but I rely on my good foundation. I am so lucky."

Cheng Jianmin laughed heartily, took out a handful of money from his pocket, and without counting, stuffed it directly into her hand: "You are not poor anymore, right?"

Widow Hua walked them out the door and threw a coquettish glance at Cheng Jianmin. When Cheng Jianmin turned around and wasn't paying attention, she threw another one to Li Erhe. It was obvious that this woman was a very particular person and would not pull anyone over.

In the grain station office, Qi Tianle bought two dishes and a bottle of Erguotou from the state-owned restaurant, and was eating and drinking with Cheng Jianping.

His flattery had reached a new level, making Cheng Jianping smile from ear to ear, and he no longer had the expression of "my mother is dead" on his face.

Cheng Jianmin and Li Erhe came in, and Qi Tianle hurriedly stood up. The expressions on his face showed happiness, anticipation, and a little bit of grievance. It would be a waste of material for this guy if he didn't act in a movie.

"Hey, Chief, you're back! I was so worried."

Cheng Jianmin snorted, pushed him aside, sat in his seat, picked up Qi Tianle's chopsticks and took a bite of the dish: "Are there any steamed buns? I'm starving. I only drank and didn't eat anything at noon."

Qi Tianle quickly handed over a steamed bun, and Cheng Jianmin took it and ate it in big mouthfuls: "Jianping, have you been to the police station?"

Cheng Jianping took a sip of his wine and said in a muffled voice, "I'm going."

"Did you go? Didn't you bring Xiaozhi back? I heard from Erhe that Xiaozhi was beaten. Let me tell you, this matter is not over..."

Cheng Jianping interrupted him: "I haven't even seen Xiaozhi yet, and you're already saying it back to me."

"What the hell?" Cheng Jianmin threw his chopsticks on the table: "Isn't this new director too arrogant? Who gave him the upper hand? Even your face is useless?"

"Brother, have you met this new guy Qin Dabao?"

"No? What kind of person is he? I heard he's not very old, but his hands are quite dark?"

"This kid looks to be about 18 or 19 years old, and he's quite arrogant. He got angry before I even said a few words."

Cheng Jianping was too embarrassed to tell others that their section chief Wang Tusheng had come with him. It was so embarrassing that this bastard section chief had betrayed the country and surrendered to the enemy.

Cheng Jianmin gasped: "So young? The director of the commune's police station should be a regular section chief, right? This brat must have connections up there, otherwise he wouldn't have climbed to this level at such a young age. No, Jianping, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. We have to be soft and take him down. We can get along with him in the future, and maybe we can use his strength."

Cheng Jianping nodded. He actually thought so too, but he was just embarrassed for the moment. Although he had just started working at the branch, he had heard that Section Chief Wang of the Legal Affairs Section had a backer at the Municipal Bureau. Even the branch director and deputy director were usually very warm when they met Section Chief Wang. For such people to smile at this young director meant that this young director had quite a background...
