Siheyuan: A Cook in the 60s

office.

"How is it?" Wu Changshun was speechless when he saw Fei Quan coming in and picking up the cigarette he had placed on the table.

Fei Quan is a retired scout. He is highly skilled, but a bit unruly.

"It's a big fish." Fei Quan lit up a cigarette. "There aren't many people following us, just one. But judging from his appearance, he must have killed someone before."

"Killed someone? Resigned?"

"Not like."

Nowadays, there are too many people who have killed others, so it is not surprising.

Moreover, there is a difference between having killed someone and having killed someone.

People like Fei Quan can really act in any role.

Ordinary people have no chance of seeing his true colors.

"A gang that killed people?"

"It shouldn't be hard to find them. They even asked me to help them, so I agreed. They probably wanted me to be a scapegoat. If you want to know where they are, just ask the street office in XX Hutong to go to their homes to register their information, and you'll be able to find them."

"That's not right." Wu Changshun frowned. "Logically, their target is Cao Wei. Why are they doing all this? And they want you to work for them?"

"It's a trap. I don't know how to do it specifically. If you want to get money from Cao Wei, you have to come up with something reliable." Fei Quan took a puff, smoke coming out of his mouth and nose: "Cao Wei's money is not that old man. He can give it to you just by a few words."

They actually knew that the old man must have been fooled and was too embarrassed to say it.

If they don't want to tell you how they tricked you, there's nothing we can do about it.

It's just a matter of getting close to others first, and then telling them where to make money. Now that everyone knows each other well, they will take you in too.

If you can make money once and twice, you will believe it, and gradually, you will invest more and more.

Since ancient times, the methods used by scammers have been similar, and most of them are of this type.

There are only differences in the details.

The level of sophistication in fooling the old man and the level of sophistication in fooling Cao Wei are two different levels.

"Go and see what they are trying to do. I'll ask the street office to cooperate and see what their background is. This kind of method doesn't seem like that of ordinary people."

"Yes."

XX Alley.

"Hey, Director Lin, how come you have time to come to our hospital today? What's the matter?" Aunt Fat met Director Lin just as she was about to go out.

"Hey, what else can we do? Just register on time." Director Lin held a pen and a notebook and sighed, "This year's rice, noodles, grain, and oil have all increased a lot. The street wants us to come and see how the people are doing and whether it has a big impact."

"Look at what you said. How can there be no impact if the price increases? But it's not bad. The wages paid by the factory have also increased a lot."

Come to think of it, it's a coincidence.

At the end of last year, everyone had some money on hand. In addition, the government's credibility was quite good at this stage, and everyone was considerate of the government, so there was no trouble. The real troublemakers were those who hadn't had a salary increase for 35 years. There was no way, they really couldn't survive.

"Okay, is everyone in the courtyard here? I have to go register. There haven't been many outsiders recently, right?"

"No one is coming..." Aunt Fat paused for a moment, "Oh, there really is one. Ye San from Old Man Ye's family in the backyard is back."

"Ye San?" The director frowned.

"Why, he didn't register with you?"

"Nope."

"Hey, this damn kid, I guess you haven't been back for too long, so you forgot. I'll take you there right now."

Old man Ye’s house.

Ye San was packing his things when he heard the voice of Aunt Fat outside.

"Ye San, Ye San, are you home?"

"I'm here, Auntie Fatty." Ye San walked out of the house. As soon as he got out of the door, he saw Director Lin and asked curiously, "What's the matter, Auntie Fatty? Who is this?"

"Oh, this is Director Lin from the street."

"Ye San, right?" Director Lin looked Ye San up and down. "You live here, why don't you go to the street office to register?"

"Ah? Do I still need to register?" Ye San looked confused.

"You stupid kid, you have no sense at all. You didn't even let Director Lin in. Let's go in and talk. Let's go in and talk."

"Oh, yes, yes, you go in." Ye San quickly made way.

Director Lin did not refuse and walked in.

As soon as I entered, I just took a quick look.

Grandpa Ye knew clearly that as a five-guarantee household, the family situation was not very good. His son and daughter had all run away, and I heard they had gone to the south. He was the only old man at home. To put it bluntly, he was basically just eating and waiting to die.

Now suddenly a Ye San appeared.

Director Lin remembered Wu Changshun's instructions and asked calmly, "Where is the old man?"

"In the back room. I was just about to cook."

"Well, where's the letter of introduction?"

"Oh, yes, please wait a moment." Ye San went into the house immediately.

Auntie Fat was helpless, so she could only pick up the clean enamel cup next to her and pour a glass of water for Director Lin: "Don't mind, this Ye San, to be honest, is just a junior. The couple of the Ye family probably don't have the face to come back. What they did back then was also shameful. I guess they let Ye San come back because they want to take the house after Grandpa Ye is gone."

At this point, the fat aunt paused; "But Ye San is a good person. After coming here, he worked hard and earned some money. He is filial. In my opinion, even if Grandpa Ye dies a hundred years later, it is not a big deal for Ye San to get the house. After all, when you are old, you just want to have filial children and grandchildren. Ye San is not bad."

Director Lin didn't say anything, just nodded.

Actually, you just need to listen to this.

After a while, Ye San came out with a letter of introduction and household registration information.

Director Lin took a few glances and found nothing wrong with it, so he returned the item to him: "Why did you suddenly return to Sijiu City?"

This is a common question.

Ye San said somewhat embarrassedly: "My parents gave birth to many children, so my family asked me to go out and try my luck."

"Yeah." Director Lin nodded, which was reasonable.

They say they are letting him out to try his luck, but in reality they just can’t afford to support him anymore.

Let's be self-reliant.

"Okay, that's it. If there's any work, I'll let you know. You don't want to pick it, right?"

"No need, Director. I found some temporary jobs that I can handle."

"That's fine." Director Lin glanced at Aunt Fat.

I sighed in my heart, this is full of flaws.

After a brief registration, I left.

Ye San let out a sigh of relief and went back to the house.

"How is it? Are you okay?" The old man spoke as soon as he entered the house.
