Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Then the third uncle gave a brief introduction to Liu Haizhong's situation.

Of course, the third uncle did not hide the fact that Liu Haizhong was fired.

After listening to this, Director Gong frowned tightly:
"You mean he was fired?"

"It's not his fault, it's just a misunderstanding."

The third uncle knew very well that leaders of any unit hated people who were fired, so he quickly explained.

Director Gong didn't believe what the third uncle said. He was not a fool.

In those days, workers were the owners of the factories, and generally speaking, factories rarely fired people unless there were special circumstances.

"Uncle, it's not that I don't give you this face, but our supply and marketing cooperative has strict requirements, and one of the most important requirements is that you must have a clean background."

The third uncle originally had high hopes, but after hearing this, he became so anxious that he almost cried.

He quickly said, "Director Gong, my friend is really pitiful now. He is old and has not saved any money. If you don't accept him, what will he do?"

Director Gong is a little angry now.
Liu Haizhong’s current embarrassing situation was not caused by him, but the third uncle put the blame on him. It was obvious that he was trying to morally blackmail him.

But considering the kindness that the third uncle had shown him back then.

Director Gong took a deep breath and said, "Uncle, we are still short of a porter in our logistics warehouse, but this job is very hard.

If Liu Haizhong is willing to work, he can be a porter, and the monthly salary is only twelve yuan.

As soon as this was said, the uncle frowned immediately: "That's not right, why did I hear that the salary of temporary workers is 15 yuan? Your supply and marketing cooperative is a good unit, it can't be lower than outside!"

Seeing that the Third Uncle looked confused, Director Gong had to remind him: "Third Uncle, maybe you are getting senile and confused?
You know, Liu Haizhong's family background is not clean, so I will definitely give the three yuan salary to the person who is listed as an official. "

Hearing this, the uncle immediately understood Director Gong's method of operation.

Just find a person with a clean background to put his name on the job, and then let Liu Haizhong do the work for them. Of course, Liu Haizhong gets most of the salary, and the small part of the money will be given to the person who put his name on the job as fees.

After figuring it out, the third uncle thanked Director Gong repeatedly: "Director Gong, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do."

Director Gong sighed and said, "Uncle San, there are some things you shouldn't agree to. I helped you this time, but I hope this will be the last time."

The meaning of this statement is very clear. This time he has repaid the Third Uncle's kindness, and when the Third Uncle encounters any problems in the future he will not be able to look for him again.

Uncle Sanye has already regretted using up such a big favor.
But when he thought about being able to show off in the courtyard, he endured it.

After exchanging a few words with Director Gong, the third uncle ran back to the courtyard and knocked on Liu Haizhong's door.

"How is it, Uncle San, have you finally found a suitable position for me?"

Liu Haizhong suddenly stood up from his chair and stared at the third uncle.

The third uncle patted his chest and said, "Look at what you said, Liu Haizhong, can't I solve the problem by coming forward?

Don't worry, everything has been done properly, and you will be able to go to work in the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow! "

Hearing the name "Supply and Marketing Cooperative", Liu Haizhong almost jumped up with excitement.
If he could work as a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative, he would be very happy even if he didn't get paid.

By then, he will marry a young and beautiful wife and live a leisurely life.

"Uncle, what counter does the leader of the supply and marketing cooperative want me to be in charge of? Is it the counter that sells alcohol? I tell you, this is my specialty!"

Looking at Liu Haizhong's excited face, the third uncle hesitated for a moment, smiled awkwardly and said, "It's not a counter selling alcohol, it's working in the logistics warehouse."

"It's also OK in the logistics warehouse. There's a lot of money there. You can sell some things you take out for a lot of money!"

Liu Haizhong was still very happy.

The third uncle looked at him and said helplessly: "You are not a clerk in the logistics warehouse, but a porter. You are responsible for helping to load and unload goods in the logistics warehouse."

After hearing this, Liu Haizhong was stunned and looked at the third uncle in disbelief: "Third uncle, you are kidding me! You want me to be a porter?"

You know, when Liu Haizhong was a temporary worker in the steel rolling mill, he was responsible for the carrying work. He knew very well that porter was the hardest and most tiring job. Now after going around in circles, he still has to do the carrying work.

The third uncle coughed twice and said, "Liu Haizhong, I have tried my best. You also know that you were fired. When the leader heard about this situation, he didn't want to recruit you."

"Okay, okay, I'll just be a porter. Fifteen dollars a month is enough for me to spend anyway."

The uncle said awkwardly: "Actually it's only twelve dollars a month."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Haizhong's expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at the Third Uncle's nose and said, "Third Uncle, are you kidding?
Other temporary workers get 15 yuan a month, why is it that when it’s my turn I only get 12 yuan?
Tell me, did you embezzle my money?

"Liu Haizhong, what are you talking about? How could I possibly do such a thing?"

The third uncle tried to explain in a panic, but Liu Haizhong refused to listen to his explanation and even ran into the compound, shouting:

"Everyone, come and take a look! I asked Uncle San to help me find a job, but he actually deducted my money. He deducted three dollars from me every month. He is a heartless guy!"

The residents in the compound heard Liu Haizhong's shouting and didn't pay any attention to it.
In their opinion, Liu Haizhong is now a hopeless case, so it is understandable if he causes any trouble.

But when they heard that "Uncle Three deducted wages", the residents immediately became excited and gathered around:
"What? Uncle Three actually did such a thing? I really can't believe it!"

"Impossible, Uncle Sanye is an old neighbor, it is impossible for him to do such a mess, there must be a misunderstanding!"

"Well, let's not panic yet. Let's find out the truth before choosing sides."

Seeing that the residents had gathered around, Liu Haizhong opened fire:

"Everyone knows that I, Liu Haizhong, used to respect Uncle San very much and cooperated with his work very well.

This time, Uncle San helped me find a job. I was very grateful to him, but I didn't expect that he had bad intentions! "

Afterwards, Liu Haizhong briefly explained the situation.

The residents who were watching looked at each other in bewilderment.

"My goodness, Uncle Three really did something so stingy?"

"This is not stingy at all, it's clearly intentional bullying of Liu Haizhong!"

"That's right, Liu Haizhong did make a mistake, but Third Uncle shouldn't kick him when he's down!" Third Uncle never expected that after he had good intentions in helping Liu Haizhong find a job, Liu Haizhong would bite him back.

The third uncle wanted to explain the matter clearly at that time, but that would drag Director Gong into the water.

You know, Director Gong is the leader of the supply and marketing cooperative, it is impossible for him to have no rivals. If his rivals knew about this, Director Gong might be implicated.

Thinking of this, the third uncle gritted his teeth and said to Liu Haizhong: "Liu Haizhong, I am really doing this for your own good this time. Since you are unwilling to accept it, let's forget it!"

After saying that, the third uncle turned around and left. Now it was Liu Haizhong's turn to be at a loss.
It's not that he was unwilling to do the job, he just wanted to get the three dollars back.

"Uncle, don't leave! Let's explain this to each other!"

As Liu Haizhong was about to stop the Third Uncle, he shook his hand away and said, "Liu Haizhong, there is nothing to talk about. If you don't want to, forget it!"

After saying that, the third uncle didn't give Liu Haizhong another chance to speak and went home angrily.

Liu Haizhong stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.

The residents who were watching now also saw the clues:
"Did we misunderstand Uncle San?"

"Don't tell me, it's possible."

"This time, Liu Haizhong failed to gain anything but ended up losing the rice."

Liu Haizhong sighed helplessly - being scolded by the residents of the compound was secondary. The key point was that he had lost the opportunity to enter the supply and marketing cooperative, which was really painful.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Haizhong left the crowd and came to the door of the third uncle's house.
He bowed towards the door and said, "Uncle, I'm really sorry. I misunderstood you just now. Now I understand that all the problems are on me and have nothing to do with you."

The third uncle was originally in the house scolding Liu Haizhong with the third aunt, and he hesitated when he heard this.

He knew Liu Haizhong's personality very well. If he allowed him to join the supply and marketing cooperative now, he would definitely get into trouble. However, he had already discussed it with Director Gong. If he changed his mind halfway, how would Director Gong look at him?
"Old man, Liu Haizhong is just like that, don't take it to heart. Now that he has apologized, you have saved your face, so just agree to him."

When the third uncle heard this, he sighed helplessly and could only open the door:

"Liu Haizhong, have you figured it out now?"

"Uncle, I've figured it out! Don't worry, I will work hard in the supply and marketing cooperative and will never cause you any trouble!"

Seeing Liu Haizhong's firm attitude, the anger of the third uncle disappeared immediately:

"Liu Haizhong, I warn you, you can enter the supply and marketing cooperative this time because of the boss's face. If you dare to mess up and lose the boss's face, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

"Don't worry, I can handle things properly!"

Liu Haizhong realized another important problem at this time

Since the third uncle was arranged to work there through the relationship with his leader, then that leader is his backer. As long as he curries favor with the leader, he will definitely have a chance to be transferred out in the future.

Just like that, the two people reached a consensus with ulterior motives.

Of course, Liu Haizhong also agreed to the Third Uncle's request and went door to door to tell everyone how the Third Uncle had arranged a job for him:
"You may not know that the best person in our compound is Uncle San! Now that I'm in trouble, Uncle San is the first one to help me!"

When Li Weidong came back, he happened to see Liu Haizhong talking to the residents about this matter.

When Liu Haizhong saw Li Weidong, he remembered what happened yesterday, turned around and slipped away awkwardly.

At this time, the third uncle was enjoying the compliments from the residents. He was startled when he saw Li Weidong coming in.

"What's going on, Uncle?"

After hearing what Li Weidong said, the third uncle quickly explained the situation briefly.

After figuring out the whole story, Li Weidong smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Uncle, this is your own business. I shouldn't have intervened, but I want to remind you.

Liu Haizhong will definitely cause you trouble, and it will be too late for you to regret it then."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Liu Haizhong has benefited from me now, he will definitely thank me!"

Seeing that the third uncle was so determined, Li Weidong stopped trying to persuade him and turned back to the house.

The third aunt came out from the back, looked at Li Weidong's back and said, "Old man, Li Weidong has never made a mistake in what he said. I think you should be more careful."

"What are you being careful about? I'm about to become a relative of the head of the textile factory. By then, I'll have my backers. Why would I be afraid of Li Weidong?"

Seeing the arrogant look on the third uncle's face, the third aunt shook her head helplessly.

Yi Zhonghai had also been keeping an eye on the situation on the Third Uncle's side. He was already a little impatient and was ready to launch his own plan, but after hesitating for a long time, he finally held back.

Early the next morning, the third uncle brought Liu Haizhong to the supply and marketing cooperative warehouse.

"Director Gong, this is my neighbor Liu Haizhong."

Director Gong looked Liu Haizhong up and down and was quite satisfied with his appearance.

Although this man is old, he is big and seems to be quite strong. If he works hard in the warehouse, he may have a bright future.

Thinking of this, Director Gong nodded and said, "Liu Haizhong, Uncle San and I are old friends. Since he introduced you this time, I will definitely take care of you. But our warehouse also has its own rules and regulations. You have to work honestly after you come here."

"I understand, boss, don't worry. I am a well-known honest person. I never take shortcuts in any work!"

Seeing Liu Haizhong's statement, the third uncle felt relieved and gave him a few more instructions before leaving.

Director Gong handed Liu Haizhong to the warehouse manager and left.

Unexpectedly, Liu Haizhong's true colors were revealed in the blink of an eye - while the workers in the warehouse were working hard, he was sneaking around and quietly found a secluded place to take a nap.

The warehouse manager didn't notice Liu Haizhong at first, but soon found something wrong: there were five porters in the warehouse, so why were there only four working?
The warehouse manager looked around and realized that one person was missing:

"What's going on? Where's the guy who just came?"

A temporary worker raised his hand and said, "Boss, I just saw him sleeping in the warehouse next door. I reminded him to work hard, but he didn't listen and scolded me instead."
