The World: Tu Ziqiang's Counterattack

213. Nosy

dong dong dong~~

Tu Ziqiang and Cai Qiaoqiao knocked on the door of the third son's house.

The door is a new one, made of red pine with a layer of ochre-red paint.

Squeak...

The unfamiliar big pie face appeared behind the door.

Well, more rounded.

"Brother Qiangzi," Lu Xiu'e smiled sweetly, "Come inside!"

Dabinglian is much more cheerful than this time last year, and she is no longer that timid little girl.

"Where's your brother?" Tu Ziqiang brought Cai Qiaoqiao into the door and asked casually.

"In the house," Lu Xiu'e glanced at Cai Qiaoqiao, and replied crisply, "My elder brother and second brother are back, just entered the house!"

"Oh~" Tu Ziqiang patted the little girl's head with a smile, and the little girl squinted her eyes and smiled even sweeter.

Pushing the door open and entering the room, the whole family is chatting enthusiastically.

The third son's mother's lung disease seems to have recovered, and she is busy making dumplings in the kitchen.

"Ah, Qiangzi is here!" The old lady waved her hands, "Come into the house quickly! Fourth brother, make tea for your brother Qiangzi!"

"Aunt Lu, how are you doing recently?" Tu Ziqiang greeted with a smile.

"Very good, very good!" The old lady's face was flushed, "When you enter the house, the meal will be ready soon~ Fourth? Fourth~~~~~~Where did this dead boy go!"

"Don't be too busy, auntie. I'm doing work at home, I'll leave after a few words~" Tu Ziqiang pulled the old lady's arm.

"Brother." The third son who heard the sound and went out stood at the door, and the two elder brothers stood behind him.

"Auntie, don't be too busy, or I won't dare to come next time." Tu Ziqiang finished talking to the old lady with a smile, and followed his third son into the house.

The house has been replaced with new windows, and the hall is much brighter. The second brother of the third son is also a rough guy, and he keeps babbling inexpressive thanks.

The elder brother didn't talk much, he just helped the second younger brother slip by.

The second brother is still limping on one leg, which should be an old injury left over from the previous incident.

"My negligence, you didn't remind me!" Tu Ziqiang held the hand of the second brother and looked at the third son reproachfully, "Didn't we get it back for the two brothers a long time ago? You said I was too busy to forget you Raise your mouth."

"Hey, it's done~" Sanzi scratched his scalp and smiled, "Shuizi helped, and they won't leave after the year. Shuizi has finished recruiting, so they will go to the Red Star Factory."

"My little brother, hey." The eldest brother shook his head, "Yesterday I said that he should go to your house and wait to see if you have any orders? No, he insisted that it was all right. What do you think I can do?" Why can't I find a home at my age?"

"Our buddies don't care about this~" Tu Ziqiang waved his hand, "How can you be so particular about it?"

The third son stood beside him and laughed.

"Hey, Qiangzi has been particular about it since he was a child!" The eldest brother gave a thumbs up, "Well, you guys talk about things, I'll go out to see my friends. Let's have a good drink later, I have to thank you very much! Thank you! Don't go! Don't go!"

Tu Ziqiang nodded with a smile, and the eldest brother took the reluctant second brother away.

Cai Qiaoqiao leaned on the door frame with her arms folded and smiled without saying a word.

"Brother Qiangzi?" The third son glanced at Cai Qiaoqiao, turned around and took out a large notebook, and handed it to Tu Ziqiang, "Diary, from red sausage to yesterday."

"I don't want to see~ Who gave you the idea?" Tu Ziqiang waved his hand and didn't answer, "Just tell me briefly, how is it, how does it feel over there?"

"Binzi," the third son took back the big book, "As soon as I arrived in Hongchang Binzi, I asked me to write a diary to record the usual work content. He also wrote a book himself, saying that he was afraid of being alone. There are mistakes and omissions, both of them can remember and compare."

"Binzi?" Tu Ziqiang smiled slightly, "Since when did he become so thin?"

"Hey," Sanzi also laughed, "By the way, why didn't Binzi come together? He should have brought that too, right?"

"Ah, I asked him to drive Yao Lisong back to Dehui." Tu Ziqiang glanced at Cai Qiaoqiao, and the girl stared at him with no intention of avoiding it.

"Then what, that, hiss..." Tu Ziqiang asked a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong?" The third son looked puzzled.

"I'd better take a look~" Tu Ziqiang scratched his head, and reached for Sanzi's diary.

Cai Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes, yawned, closed the door, turned around and left the house.

"Brother, I'm not very good at writing some characters." The third son came over and said embarrassedly, "Well, just draw a circle."

"Well, Liu Li'e..." Tu Ziqiang glanced at the door and asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" The third son Kaba squinted his eyes, Tu Ziqiang's face was flushed red,

"You guys are all responsible for the field work, right?" Tu Ziqiang coughed dryly, "Is she always at home alone?"

"Sometimes Binzi takes me with him, and sometimes he takes Ergouzi with him." The third son scratched his head, "There are usually two people in the family."

"Ah~" Tu Ziqiang nodded.

"Brother? Do you suspect that Liu Li'e is dishonest?" The third son came back to his senses at this time, "No! Anyway, I didn't see who she had contact with when I was at home."

"Really?" Tu Ziqiang's heart was mostly lost.

"That's right, she only works as an accountant, and she didn't tamper with withdrawing or depositing money~" The third son waved his hand, very sure, "Either it's me, or Er Gouzi is with me, if this tampering No~~ No, Er Gouzi is not that kind of person!"

Tu Ziqiang looked at the third son with his mouth pursed.

"What's wrong, brother?" The third son looked confused.

"It's nothing," Tu Ziqiang swallowed and spat, "I just think the child in her stomach is a bit too big."

"Ah?" The third son opened his mouth wide, "Can't you? Sister E is not that kind of person, is she? Brother, is it because of Sister E's previous reputation... I don't know anything else. I think those are just rumors!"

Tu Ziqiang nodded and said nothing.

"Brother, don't worry, I will pay more attention in the future, and I will tell you in time if there is anything wrong." The third son patted his chest.

"No need~" Tu Ziqiang waved his hand, "Binzi is not stupid, let's not worry about it~ Well, I'll go back first, there's still a lot of work at home!"

"Ah? Ah!" The third son nodded, "Brother, wait a minute, I made a good thing for you!"

<1895.

"I am Cao!" Tu Ziqiang exclaimed.

duang~

Cai Qiaoqiao kicked open the door and rushed in.

&n1895! The girl blushed with excitement, and skillfully fiddled with it, "It's for me!" "

The third son looked at Tu Ziqiang, and Tu Ziqiang looked at the third son, then nodded with difficulty.

Today's New Year's Eve, there are no people on the road, and everyone is at home preparing for the New Year.

The street was empty, only Tu Ziqiang and Cai Qiaoqiao were walking on the road, and two pickets were patrolling far away.

"My father also has one, but it's not as beautiful as this one!" Cai Qiaoqiao skillfully juggled guns while walking, "There is no red five-star on the handle of his gun!"

Tu Ziqiang looked at the two pickets in the distance in embarrassment. The two pickets looked up at the sky, studying today's weather.

"Hey! Hurry up! It won't be long between Jichun and Dehui!" Cai Qiaoqiao turned to look at Tu Ziqiang, "Should I go to Ergouzi's house to ask?"

"No need," Tu Ziqiang pouted, "Let's go directly to Binzi's house!"

"Oh~~" Cai Qiaoqiao smiled slyly.

"What do you understand?" Tu Ziqiang asked.

"No, I don't understand anything." The girl happily played with the pistol, "I'll ask my dad to get me two boxes of ammunition tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow is the first day of the new year!" Tu Ziqiang curled his lips.

After a stroll, the two soon arrived at Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin's kennel.

The house was self-flowing, and after lent it to Luo Shibin, he didn't clean it up much, and it was still so dilapidated.

There was a knock on the door, and soon there was the sound of slightly heavy footsteps.

Liu Li'e had gained a lot of plumpness. When she opened the door, she saw that it was Tu Ziqiang who was taken aback for a moment.

"Qiangzi, come, come in!"

The woman shyly moved her belly.

Tu Ziqiang looked at Cai Qiaoqiao.

How many months do you think she has?

The girl returned a puzzled look, obviously not understanding what she meant.

Why, I have to avoid this too?

Cai Qiaoqiao stood by the door and hesitated for a while, Tu Ziqiang angrily gave her a hand, and then entered the door suddenly realized.

Fair enough, lonely man and widow!You must be accompanied by this little girl!

Tu Ziqiang pouted.

Liu Li'e struggled to move her body to collect tea.

"Hey, don't bother, just sit and go." Tu Ziqiang smiled, "I heard Binzi said, no, I can't hold back! Come and see, hahaha~"

"Hi~" Liu Li'e blushed and stopped talking.

"Your body, do you want to rest after the next year?" Tu Ziqiang asked with concern, ambiguous, "I just came from the third son, and he..."

"No, it's not that delicate!" Liu Li'e waved her hand, "Qiangzi, don't listen to the third son's nonsense, how can I work so hard? But the three brothers really worked hard."

"Hi, but Sister E, this is your first child, why don't you transfer someone else first? We'll talk about it after you give birth?" Tu Ziqiang smiled warmly.

"Hey, Qiangzi, let me tell you, don't!" Liu Li'e waved her hands again and again, "How determined are you to be your brother? I don't worry about him being alone there, girl over there with Da Mao~~Tsk tsk tsk... "

Cai Qiaoqiao blushed.

This married old woman is fierce!

"Hahaha," Tu Ziqiang laughed, "That's fine, then I don't care~~~ I can't bear this responsibility!"

I haven't seen her for more than half a year. Liu Li'e has changed a lot with the red sausage party. She is not the little young woman who shrinks like a quail back then.

It may be influenced by the folk customs of the red sausage, or it may be because of becoming a mother soon and taking a big step forward in the direction of women, the words of tigers and wolves keep coming and going.

Not to mention Cai Qiaoqiao's face was flushed, even Tu Ziqiang, a big man, fled away with a red face.

"Qiangzi, come here tomorrow, call Shang Shuizi~~" Liu Li'e shouted loudly while holding the door frame.

"Hey, let's talk, let's talk~" Tu Ziqiang perfunctory, no longer the momentum before.

Turning out of the alley, Tu Ziqiang let out a long breath, and looked at Cai Qiaoqiao's flushed face with lingering fear.

"Do you still doubt it?" Cai Qiaoqiao chuckled.

Tu Ziqiang pursed his lips and did not speak.

"I don't even know why you doubt her?" Cai Qiaoqiao curled her lips, "She's quite a normal woman! Tu Ziqiang, you can't look at people with colored glasses!"

"What colored glasses?" Tu Ziqiang muttered in disbelief.

"Boring!" Cai Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes.

214. Armor Removal

The seventeenth day of the first month of the Gengxu year, Sunday.

Tu Ziqiang finally met the legendary Zhu Jiuzheng.

Zhu Jiuzheng is in his fifties, with a burly figure, a big face, a high hairline, and a high back.

"I'm here to cooperate with you in your work! You don't need to have any burdens, and you don't need to go to college to avoid suspicion!"

This was Zhu Jiuzheng's first sentence when they met.

"You are still young and don't have a thorough understanding of things. Everyone is part of the organization, each has its own tasks, and each has its own responsibilities!"

This was Zhu Jiuzheng's second sentence when they met.

Sitting on the sofa, Tu Ziqiang was at a loss.

Simple, rude and direct, directly to people's hearts.

"You can't leave, Comrade Xiao Tu." Zhu Jiuzheng took Tu Ziqiang's hand sincerely, "Without you, the mutual aid club will not function well, and if the mutual aid club does not function well, there will be no next step."

"Director Zhu," Tu Ziqiang swallowed, "Tu Ziqiang didn't run the Mutual Aid Club. It doesn't matter if I'm here or not. You've flattered me..."

"Oh? This is not the same as what I understand~" Zhu Jiuzheng let go of Tu Ziqiang's hand, picked up the cigarette case to light a cigarette, and pushed the cigarette case towards Tu Ziqiang casually, "Try it, I never Brought from Prussia."

"The operating mechanism of the mutual aid society determines that it does not require human intervention once it is in operation." Tu Ziqiang took out a cigarette and lit it, talking eloquently, "What we do is more about service, especially me, who basically does nothing at ordinary times. Work."

"Well~" Zhu Jiuzheng nodded slightly.

"Although I have left the mutual aid club, the other personnel structure has basically remained unchanged." Tu Ziqiang looked at Zhu Jiuzheng sincerely, "Even if there is a day when the mutual aid club needs to be fine-tuned in the future, even if I am still there, I am not sure how to fine-tune it Yes. The system is too huge, not one person can complete it independently, it needs teamwork. For example, the fine-tuning of the exchange purchase system last year was not done by me, but by a scholar named Tian Xifeng. "

"Well, it makes sense." Zhu Jiuzheng looked at Tu Ziqiang and nodded.

"Mr. Zhu, you may not know much about my situation," Tu Ziqiang dusted off the cigarette ash, and said with a wry smile, "I haven't even finished junior high school, what can I do? It's just that a blind cat happened to come up with this idea. Me, I really need to go to college to improve myself, really!"

"What about the golden plan? Is it a blind cat hitting a mouse?" Zhu Jiuzheng crossed his fingers and looked at Tu Ziqiang with interest.

"In essence, the mutual aid association and the gold plan are both the same way..." Tu Ziqiang stretched out his finger and drew two circles on the coffee table, "It's just that one is for the masses and the other is for the neighbors. Director Zhu, you Don't test me, me, there is only so much water, no matter how much you squeeze it, you won't be able to squeeze it out."

"Haha, you little comrade, there is something in your words!" Zhu Jiuzheng raised his hand and lightly tapped Tu Ziqiang, "Why, you can play around while Director Huang is here, and you will escape to the end as soon as I, Zhu Jiuzheng, come Nanshan?"

"Director Zhu, you have wronged me," Tu Ziqiang explained with a wry smile, "You can ask Comrade Wang Wufeng for confirmation. I proposed to go to college last year, and I didn't even have a golden plan at that time!"

"Well~" Zhu Jiuzheng glanced at Tu Ziqiang and nodded, "Tsk tsk, study hard and improve every day, not bad!"

Tu Ziqiang chuckled.

"But I think it's better for you to host the mutual aid club!" Zhu Jiuzheng changed the subject, "After all, you know more about the gold plan and have some control over the mutual aid club. Our local people can't handle the mutual aid club well. There is a cooking pot in the middle!"

"I think Comrade Zhu Yu is very suitable for the work of the Mutual Aid Club!" Tu Ziqiang recommended without hesitation, "What do you think, Director Zhu?"

"You want to go to university, but you have to resume classes first, right?" Zhu Jiuzheng pursed his lips and spread his hands, "Don't say that classes have not resumed, even if classes have resumed, in my opinion, the mutual aid club cannot do without you."

"What does Director Zhu mean?" Tu Ziqiang smiled.

"The director of the mutual aid club is none other than you," Zhu Jiuzheng smiled resolutely, "That's what Director Huang meant."

"Director Zhu..." Tu Ziqiang opened his mouth to speak.

"However," Zhu Jiuzheng interrupted Tu Ziqiang by raising his hand, "but it's a good thing that young people want to learn and improve."

Tu Ziqiang pursed his lips and stopped talking.

"From my personal point of view, I definitely support it." Zhu Jiuzheng leaned forward slightly, his eyes sparkling, "On the premise of not affecting the work of the mutual aid club..."

"I strongly request Comrade Zhu Yu to serve as the deputy director of the mutual aid club," Tu Ziqiang said sincerely, "I believe that with her intelligence, she will be able to pick up the courage soon!"

"Don't be old Zhu Yu, Zhu Yu, I understand my daughter." Zhu Jiuzheng leaned on the backrest and shook his head, "She is far away~~~"

"Director Zhu, it's your fault," Tu Ziqiang feigned anger, "You must give young people a chance! Besides, with me in charge and mentoring, why don't you worry about it?"

"Hahaha~~~" Zhu Jiuzheng laughed, pointing his fingers, "You, the layout is too small, too small!"

"That's right, so I need to study~~" Tu Ziqiang smiled with him, and picked up the cigarette case on the coffee table to offer cigarettes.

"We'll discuss the matter of candidates after a meeting." Zhu Jiucheng lit a cigarette with Tu Ziqiang's match, took two puffs and exhaled a puff of smoke, and then said, "I will take a positive attitude towards the resumption of college! As for the result Well, it depends on whether your kid has that life!"

"Hey, it must be fine if Director Zhu speaks!" Tu Ziqiang waved his hand, "I'll go home and pack my luggage!"

"You boy! The urinal is inlaid with gold!" Zhu Jiuzheng lightly tapped Tu Ziqiang with his finger holding the cigarette.

The little old fox made a deal tacitly.

Tu Ziqiang can go to school, but the director's title must be hung, and the mutual aid club needs to be handed over to Zhu Yu.

In this way, Zhu Yu's meritorious deeds belonged to Zhu Yu, and Tu Ziqiang could be blamed for his demerits.

And what Zhu Jiuzheng paid was nothing more than the so-called speaking for the university's resumption of studies.

He would definitely say something, and Tu Ziqiang gave him the motivation to speak.

If the university resumes classes successfully, Zhu Jiuzheng will inevitably be credited in the future, and the people of the whole country will be grateful to him; on the contrary, if the university resumes classes fail, Zhu Jiuzheng will not be able to find fault with him. After all, he is also speaking for Tu Ziqiang for the golden project. .

Who would dislike this kind of business that is sure to make money without losing money?

Of course, what Zhu Jiuzheng didn't know was that Tu Ziqiang would not accept his favor at all in this matter.

The matter of resuming classes has long been settled, and this favor from Zhu Jiuzheng...

Hey, I can only fool the silly boy!

But the old fox is still young. He doesn't know that the reality is whether it is a lawsuit, whether it is Ding Mao or Mao, it depends on the evidence and name?

When will the bigwigs be limited by the evidence?

Zhu Jiuzheng is still petty.

Sooner or later, the penny-pinching personality will suffer a lot!

You are such a big director, why are you so fussy about giving me a piece of candy and exchanging me a date with a child?

Now all eyes are on Ji Chun, on your Zhu Jiuzheng's every move.

This, the layout, is too small!

"Then Director Zhu, I'll go back and prepare when I'm fine." Tu Ziqiang stood up with a smile and said goodbye.

"Wait," Zhu Jiuzheng raised his hand, "I want to hear your opinion on something else."

"What else?" Tu Ziqiang sat down slowly, a little surprised.

Isn't everything settled?I name the director, and the power is given to your daughter.

What else?You two shut the door and chat?What opinion do you still listen to?

It is not up to me, the deputy director of the workshop of the Red Star Factory, to express my opinions on local matters.

"The interaction between Light Industry and Mutual Aid is very good." Zhu Jiuzheng established his personality first, and waved his hand, "Employees use their spare time or referrals or secondments to contribute to our business. This must be praised!"

"Hey, Director, what you said is right." Tu Ziqiang responded with a smile, "What kind of spirit is this? This is..."

"However," Zhu Jiuzheng raised his hand to interrupt Tu Ziqiang's long flattery, "You are still too timid! Why don't you promote such a good event vigorously? But it's not your fault, um, you, have already Do your best!"

"Hi~" Tu Ziqiang smiled, with a bad premonition in his heart, and tentatively said, "This matter, the light industry is the beginning, and our mutual aid agency is open to welcome comrades from other local departments Get involved!"

"Well, it's not enough." Zhu Jiuzheng shook his fingers, "Since it's a good thing, then don't be so petty! Do it, and make it big!"

"What do you mean, Director?" Tu Ziqiang looked at Zhu Jiuzheng suspiciously.

"Why is it limited to Jichun City?" Zhu Jiuzheng smiled.

"Ah? That's it, Director Zhu, this matter has to be done step by step, right. We're doing it in Jichun City now, hey, it's safer to see the results in two years and then further promote it?" Tu Ziqiang keenly sensed that something was wrong, so he quickly pulled back the words.

Zhu Jiuzheng would be so stupid?I can't see that the purpose of this mutual aid society is to blend in with the local people, you have me in you, and you in me?

Why did he want to be promoted?He just came to Jichun, and he didn't bring anyone to be placed in the mutual aid club?What good does the enlargement do him?

Judging from his penny-pinching attitude just now, this old boy is definitely not the kind of person who is enthusiastic about making sacrifices for no reason!

"I think it's okay!" Zhu Jiuzheng waved his hand, with an impassioned expression on his face, "I will take this responsibility!"

"Director Zhu, what do you mean?" Tu Ziqiang restrained his smile and asked slowly.

"We need to make some fine-tuning," Zhu Jiuzheng was very modest, "For example, some adjustments to the right to recommend and review?"

The meat is here!

"I think it's more efficient to make a comprehensive and unified arrangement. Don't just do light industry, agriculture, or heavy industry alone, right?" Zhu Jiuzheng said with a smile, "Also, I personally suggest that mutual aid societies can reserve the right to make suggestions. Recommendation and review rights should be separated.”

Tu Ziqiang was silent and looked at Zhu Jiuzheng quietly.

"After all, the higher-ups are in charge of the overall situation, and information collection and trade-offs have advantages over the mutual aid society itself, right? Let's implement this matter as soon as possible! How about it, feel free to mention any difficulties! Can it be completed before the end of March? Huh?" Zhu Jiuzheng said slowly Say this sentence slowly, and the coffin will be finalized.

This old guy is going to swallow the mutual aid club in one gulp, and win over the entire staff of Jichun along the way!

Then I want Mutual Aid to wash it up and jump into the pot, and there is a fucking time limit!
