Siheyuan: Qin Huai Ru, Dong Xu Qing You

Li Huaide spoke coldly and now he felt annoyed when he saw Xu Damao.

He originally wanted to get some gold bars when he checked Lou's house, but he didn't expect Xu Damao to sneak into Lou's house in advance and hide the gold bars.

This made him angry and anxious.

No matter whether Li Huaide was hinting or threatening directly, Xu Damao just played dumb and would never tell where the gold bars were.

Now Deputy Director Li was really angry.

"Director Li, please wait a moment. Even if I have to turn the Lou family upside down, I will find the gold bars for you!"

Xu Damao was also very anxious.

He wanted to take this opportunity to investigate Lou's family and regain the trust of Deputy Director Li.

Xu Damao swept the toilet for several days but couldn't stand the stench and the strange looks from his colleagues at the steel mill.

In the past, Xu Damao was a projectionist. That was such a prestigious job. The work was easy, the salary was high, and he could even earn some extra benefits by showing movies in the countryside.

Xu Damao's horse face was so long that it almost dragged to the ground.

He was rummaging through the drawers and cabinets in Lou's house, obviously having something to hide.

Li Huaide sneered, "Xu Damao, you're really good at pretending! Section Chief Liu, bring someone in and kick Xu Damao out!"

Following Li Huaide's instructions, Section Chief Liu led seven or eight people and broke into the Lou family's house.

Xu Damao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Hey, Chief Liu, wait a moment.

I'm helping you find the gold bars! Director Li, don't worry, I'm sure I can find them!"

Xu Damao was so anxious that he was incoherent, which made Li Huaide even more angry, and he kicked him out of the Lou family.

Section Chief Liu and his men searched the Lou family's house for a long time, but found nothing. Li Huaide was so angry that his face turned blue.

"How could there be nothing? Did Lou Zhenhua run away with his entire family?"

"Director Li, that shouldn't be the case. The Lou family's clothes are still there, but the money is missing..."

"Section Chief Liu, you will keep an eye on this today. Bring Lou Zhenhua to my office as soon as he returns!"

"No need to take me to the office, just send me directly to my residence in Daqianmen."

Li Huaide was very cunning and used his power to buy many houses.

Section Chief Liu nodded in agreement. He understood that Li Huaide did not want the current factory director Liu Feng to interfere in the Lou family's affairs.

Raiding the Lou family was a great opportunity for Li Huaide to turn his fortune around, so how could he let Liu Feng snatch this opportunity away?

After arranging everything, Li Huaide left the Lou family.

In the evening, one of the men who participated in the house search came to Yang Lei quietly and asked, "Did Xu Damao take Li Huaide to search the Lou family's house?"

Yang Lei was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

Xu Damao is anxious now. He wants to curry favor with the powerful and take advantage of the downfall of the Lou family to climb up!

"Xu Damao is such a man of the times. On the one hand, he's asking me to connect him with Director Liu Feng, and on the other hand, he's trying to curry favor with Li Huaide."

"Xiao Gao, this news is very important.

This is for you.”

No matter when, money can buy people's hearts, it's just that the price is different.

This subordinate named Gao was hired by Yang Lei.

Of course, he doesn't have to do this dirty work himself, Cao Chuanfu will take care of it for him.

Yang Lei gave Officer Gao a stack of money and some grain coupons.

Officer Gao felt the money on the table and found ten of them! They were all large-denomination "Black Ten" notes, or hundred-yuan notes.

At that time, one hundred yuan could be exchanged for twenty kilograms of fine grain coupons.

"Director Yang, you gave too much." Officer Gao felt a little embarrassed.

"This is nothing, you deserve it." Yang Lei smiled and urged Officer Gao to accept the money and food coupons.

In fact, Officer Gao had long been coveting the money in Yang Lei's hands, but he felt a little guilty that he could get a hundred yuan and twenty kilograms of fine grain coupons just for passing on a message.

Before leaving, Gao suddenly remembered something and quickly told Yang Lei, "Deputy Director Li asked Section Chief Liu to take people to guard Lou's house. As soon as Lou Zhenhua returns, they will arrest him and send him to Deputy Director Li's yard at Daqianmen."

Yang Lei smiled slightly after hearing Li Huaide's request.

He knew that Lou Zhenhua and his family had left the capital and gone to other places. Judging from the distance, they should be arriving in the next two days.

Yang Lei had already made all the arrangements along the way, so nothing would go wrong.

However, what Yang Lei valued more was Li Huaide's small courtyard in Daqianmen.

How could he miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

"okay, I get it.

Go back and get busy.

Arresting Lou Zhenhua and questioning him about his past was just routine. Yang Lei simply didn't trust this high-ranking official, who had been bought with money.

After giving Officer Gao a little sweet treat, he sent him away.

Sure enough, as soon as Officer Gao stepped out of Yang Lei’s office, he ran straight to Li Huaide.

"Did Yang Lei really say that?"

Li Huaide held his chin with one hand while listening to Officer Gao's report: "Officer Gao, is this true? Did he really give you ten yuan?"

Officer Gao quickly took out the money and said, "It's true, Director Li.

Yang Lei is very generous, but I can't accept this money. Please hand it over for me."

Chapter 162 The unlucky Xu Damao became his scapegoat

"Well, you did the right thing."

Although Li Huaide said this, he looked down on Gao's behavior in his heart.

He secretly thanked God that Officer Gao only took ten yuan, otherwise if it was a hundred yuan, wouldn't it all go into Li Huaide's pocket?

"Xiao Gao, you didn't mention anything else to Yang Lei, did you?"

"No, Director Li, I just told you what you told me to do."

Of course, Officer Gao would not say anything more. He had long been fed up with Li Huaide's greedy behavior.

"Oh, Officer Gao is here too?" Yang Lei pushed open the door and walked in with a smile.

Officer Gao was caught red-handed by Yang Lei, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face.

Yang Lei pretended to know nothing.

"Officer Gao, did you give the two hundred yuan and one hundred kilograms of fine grain coupons I gave you to Deputy Director Li so soon?"

When Li Huaide heard this, he was stunned.

He only knew that the senior official said Yang Lei gave him ten yuan, but Yang Lei now said it was two hundred yuan and a hundred kilograms of fine grain coupons!

Li Huaide is not only greedy, but also can't stand others getting more than him.

Seeing Li Huaide's angry eyes, Officer Gao quickly explained: "Director Yang, you only gave me 100 yuan and 20 kilograms of fine grain coupons, how could I have so much..."

As soon as these words were spoken, Officer Gao knew he was in trouble.

"Okay, you go out first.

Director Yang and I have something to discuss."

Li Huaide glared at Officer Gao fiercely and waved his hand to let him go out.

Officer Gao wanted to explain a few more words, but seeing Li Huaide's disgusted face, he could only leave in disgrace.

Yang Lei looked at Li Huaide with a smile.

"Deputy Director Li, do you have something to talk to me about? I also want to talk to you."

Yang Lei suddenly ran to Li Huaide's office. Li Huaide knew that Yang Lei would not come to his office unless there was something important.

Otherwise, Yang Lei would not have come to him on his own initiative.

"Yang Lei, it's just the two of us now, let's talk about whatever we want to say."

Li Huaide still wanted to win over Yang Lei, as he felt that Yang Lei was a capable person.

As long as Yang Lei takes action, there is nothing he can't accomplish.

Li Huaide originally wanted to deal with the Lou family, but the Lou family was already deserted.

He felt that something was a little strange and that Lou Zhenhua and his family might have already fled the capital.

"Deputy Director Li, I'll be frank then."

Yang Lei sat down carelessly, facing Li Huaide directly.

"Yang Lei, there's no need to be polite between us. We used to have such a good relationship, but now it's like this, I have to take some responsibility."

Li Huaide was trying to show goodwill to Yang Lei.

But Yang Lei didn't buy it at all.

Li Huaide, the old pervert, thinks about Qin Huairu all day long.

Although Qin Huairu has not yet become Yang Lei's woman, she is already Yang Lei's person.

Can Yang Lei make Li Huaide touch a hair on Qin Huairu?

As long as Li Huaide dares to set his sights on Qin Huairu, Yang Lei will never let him go.

Deputy Factory Director Li Huaide is a suspicious person by nature.

On the surface, he seemed to trust Yang Lei very much, but in fact, he was on guard against Yang Lei everywhere.

Yang Lei is quite smart. With the help of Li Huaide's relationship, he was promoted from an ordinary fitter in the fourth workshop to the canteen section chief. Now he has become the deputy director of the General Affairs Department and also the deputy chief of the Personnel Section.

Moreover, Yang Lei was clear in his mind and felt that Liu Feng was much more reliable than Li Huaide.

He thought that if Liu Feng could become the head of the Red Star Steel Mill, he would be much better than Li Huaide.

Yang Lei would never hang out with a petty person like Li Huaide.

"Hey, Deputy Director Li, I don't deserve the word 'brother'.

Regardless of whether you were or are still my leader, you are my deputy director. "

When Yang Lei said this, Li Huaide's face turned red and white, and he was so angry that he was fuming, but there was nothing he could do.

"Deputy Director Li, I came to see you today for a matter. I heard you have a house in Daqianmen?"

"Yang Lei, who told you this?"

Li Huaide's heart skipped a beat. He had never mentioned the house in Daqianmen to anyone.

"Deputy Director Li, who else could it be besides Section Chief Liu from the Security Department? He said you shouldn't have such a big house, right? Is this something your ancestors left behind?"

Yang Lei asked, staring at Li Huaide with a smile.

Li Huaide shuddered with fear. How could his ancestors leave behind such a big house?

If this house really belongs to their family, then even if he is not a capitalist, he must be a wealthy businessman.

But in this era, businessmen are not welcome.

If Li Huaide's ancestors were merchants, how could he become the director of a steel mill? He couldn't even imagine it.

"Yang Lei, don't talk nonsense, my family has been poor farmers for three generations!"

Li Huaide is proud of his identity as a third-generation poor peasant.

If he loses even this, he will really lose his confidence.

"Deputy Director Li, does this mean the house in Daqianmen is no longer yours?"

"of course not!"

Li Huaide answered decisively.

"I even specifically asked Section Chief Liu how our Deputy Director Li could possibly have such a big house. But Section Chief Liu just didn't believe me and insisted it was yours.
