The west wing is located after entering the main gate, walking to the west, passing four back rooms and a small ear room before reaching the west wing.

The five rooms in the west wing are less than 80 square meters in total, but there are no pillars in the house, it's all bare, and it was probably used as a guest room. Now everything is cleaned up, so you can decorate it yourself and move in.

However, Zhao Cheng did not plan to move in immediately, because if he moved in, he would have to cook for himself. It would be no good living with Xu Tian, ​​where he would have no worries about food and drink. Why bother himself with troubles?

Half an hour later, the deaf old lady followed Zhao Cheng and Xu Tian to the Housing Management Office. Because Zhao Cheng and Xu Tian were both wearing police uniforms, the Housing Management Office only charged two dollars as a handling fee and completed the house deed processing.

Holding the brand new house deed, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but smile. From today on, I am also a Beijinger who owns a house.

Zhao Cheng and Xu Tian didn't bother to be polite with the deaf old lady. After booking the house, they went straight to the Baizhifang Police Station.

Watching Zhao Cheng and the other man walk away, the deaf old lady was so angry that she almost died. "I'm an old lady with bound feet, and you didn't even bother to send me back. You really don't respect me at all!"

In the end, the deaf old lady had no choice but to stagger back to the courtyard by herself.

Zhao Cheng and Xu Tian didn't care about the deaf old lady's thoughts at all. In fact, when watching the TV series in later generations, Zhao Cheng wondered why this compound could be controlled by Yi Zhonghai, the moral master?

Why didn’t anyone think of going to the street office to resolve the problem?

In Zhao Cheng's opinion, the main reason was that the people at that time did not have enough understanding of the grassroots government led by the Party. Moreover, at that time, everything was in ruins and the government functions were not as perfect as in later generations. Therefore, there was a shortage of government personnel and inadequate management.

As for what some novels say about Director Wang sheltering Yi Zhonghai, that is pure nonsense.

You could say that a government official at that time was incompetent or had various minor flaws, but to say that she maliciously shielded someone like Yi Zhonghai was simply impossible. It was even more impossible that she deliberately let Yi Zhonghai off the hook to cover up the truth.

So Zhao Cheng concluded that the reason why this courtyard house developed like that in the end was entirely because the interests of these ordinary people were not harmed.

In the entire courtyard, the only one who was cheated in the end was Sha Zhu. And he was Yi Zhonghai's thug, so no one warned him because he had offended people!

It was entirely his own problem. Others were just indifferent.

Therefore, Zhao Cheng was not afraid of the so-called courtyard house at all. This was also the reason why Zhao Cheng did not think of changing houses after knowing that it was this courtyard house.

On the one hand, Zhao Cheng was not afraid, and on the other hand, there were no houses this cheap and this big anywhere else. This was also because the city of Beiping was surrounded, and after liberation, it would be impossible to buy such a large house with such a small amount of money.

Zhao Cheng and Xu Tian returned to the car dealership. After lunch, Xu Tian wanted to go to sleep and rest. He had been so busy lately. But Zhao Cheng refused to do so. He had finally had a day off, so he had to go out and explore the city.

"Go by yourself. I won't go with you. Be careful! It's not peaceful outside now. Bring your gun!" Xu Tian knew that Zhao Cheng was curious about Beiping City, so he didn't stop him.

"Don't worry, Brother Tianer. No one can do anything to me with this outfit on." Zhao Cheng patted his police uniform and said to Xu Tian.

After Zhao Cheng came out of the car dealership, he just wandered around in a random direction.

Looking at the ancient and charming Sijiu City, Zhao Cheng was filled with emotion. Especially when he saw the towering wall of the landlord's compound, he felt sorry for its demolition.

Zhao Cheng walked until he reached the top of the city wall, where he looked out over the fortifications of the 35th Army outside the city. He felt as if he were in another world.

Ever since Zhao Cheng traveled through time, his yearning for the afterlife has become stronger and stronger. Especially when he is alone, he misses his children, wife, and mother in the afterlife even more.

"I don't know how they are living now! I hope the insurance company can pay more compensation so that they can live a better life!" Zhao Cheng leaned against the city wall and looked into the distance.

"Have you found out clearly? Are you sure they will be trading nearby later?" Just when Zhao Cheng was missing his hometown, a faint voice came from under the city wall.

"I'm sure. I heard it in the private room on the second floor of the casino. Money is exchanged for goods! They are all high-quality opium from Yunnan! And they pay with gold!" another voice whispered.

Although Zhao Cheng was far away from them, he could still hear them very clearly. It must be said that his physical fitness has improved, his five senses have become much sharper, and there has been great progress in all aspects of his body!

Because Zhao Cheng was standing on the outer side of the city wall, while the two of them were at the base of the inner wall, the two of them did not notice Zhao Cheng on the wall at all, and no one would have thought that Zhao Cheng could hear their whispered conversation across the 20-30 meter high wall.

Zhao Cheng's stance on these opium traffickers has always been to execute them if caught! No leniency!

So Zhao Cheng decided to wait until they robbed each other, and then deal with these two people and rob them!

In this way, Zhao Cheng hid on the city wall. Anyway, they couldn't see, hear, or discover him.

In the dead of winter, Zhao Cheng stood on the city wall, being blown by the cold wind for nearly an hour. Finally, he heard the sound of a car.

I saw a car and a truck coming from the east and west directions respectively, and they stopped about ten meters apart.

One person got out of the driver's seat of each car, checked the other car, then got into the other car, started the engine, and prepared to leave.

At this moment, something strange happened. Two people suddenly jumped out from the bushes next to the two cars and shot the two drivers! After killing the two drivers, the two men started to search the cars for things.

"Brother, there's money in the car over here! It's small yellow croakers, fifty of them!" A man who got into the car cheered happily.

"Stop making noise, keep it down! Don't attract anyone!" Another man who was on the truck bed heard the shouting and quickly stopped them.

However, stopping his accomplice from speaking did not delay his work. He saw that what was being carried on the truck was not opium, but a truckload of munitions!

There were both long and short guns, and even three light machine guns and one heavy machine gun! Ten boxes of matching ammunition!

"Damn it, we've been cheated. This is fucking munitions, not opium at all!" the man on the truck cursed inwardly.

"What's wrong, big brother?" The man in the car got out and walked to the back of the truck, looking at his accomplice in the truck bed and asked.

"You should cut off your ear and use it as a snack! These are all weapons, and we've got ourselves into trouble!" The big man also felt that this matter was quite tricky.

While the two were talking in the truck, Zhao Cheng had already sneaked to the rear of the car and was using the open door as a cover to reach for the box on the car seat.

When Zhao Cheng heard that it was arms, he no longer wanted to rob his fellow thieves, he just wanted to take the gold!
