Siheyuan: Start with a big car

If you want to become a superior person, you must endure hardships!

After much thought, Yan Jiecheng decided to take advantage of this time to go to the factory's tube building, thinking about whether he could get close to the leader and add more chips to his promotion. So he went straight to the floor where Director Chen's house was, stood at the door of Director Chen's house, and raised his hand to knock gently on the door.

After a while, the door creaked open, and Director Chen's wife poked her head out. Seeing that it was Yan Jiecheng, she showed a puzzled look on her face and asked, "Xiao Yan, it's time to get off work. What are you doing here?"

Yan Jiecheng's face was immediately filled with a flattering smile, and he said politely: "Sister-in-law, I just thought that you and Director Chen are so busy with work on weekdays, and I have nothing to do after get off work, so I came to see you and ask if you need any help with the work. Please don't be polite with me."

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. After hesitating for a moment, she said a little embarrassedly, "Xiao Yan, you are so thoughtful. I really have something to worry about. The coal briquettes at home are almost used up. I am worried that I can't cook. If it is convenient for you, can you help me move some coal briquettes? I am afraid that it will delay your return home."

When Yan Jiecheng heard this, he was so happy. He was worried that he would not have the opportunity to show off, so he quickly said, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Don't delay, don't delay. I will help you move it right away. Don't worry. It's my honor to be able to help you."

"Oh, thank you so much!" Mrs. Chen was very happy.

Yan Jiecheng was also very happy.

However, when Yan Jiecheng followed Mrs. Chen to the warehouse where the coal briquettes were stored, he saw the scene and his eyes widened and he almost cried.

I saw that the coal briquettes were piled up like a small mountain, there were at least four or five hundred of them. If I had to carry them one by one to the fifth floor, I would be exhausted to death.

Yan Jiecheng felt extremely regretful, but the words had already been said and it was not a good time to back out now, so he had to go ahead with it.

Mrs. Chen was watching Yan Jiecheng's bitter face and guessed what he was thinking. She said with a deliberate smile: "Little Yan, I see that you don't look well. Are you tired because of too much? Or forget it. I'm embarrassed to let you do such heavy work. I'll think of other ways." As she spoke, she deliberately looked at Yan Jiecheng with a slightly sarcastic look, as if she was mocking him for having no strength and being good-looking but useless.

Yan Jiecheng was very anxious when he heard this. He didn't want to leave a bad impression on Mrs. Chen that he was lazy and weak, otherwise all his previous efforts would be in vain. So he straightened his back and said with a strong face: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? How can I be tired? I am very strong. These coal briquettes are nothing. Just wait and see."

Having said that, without waiting for Mrs. Chen to speak again, Yan Jiecheng bent down, and using all his strength, he held a dozen coal briquettes in his arms. The coal briquettes were black and heavy, and they pressed on him so hard that his mouth grimaced. But he still gritted his teeth, and ran out with the coal briquettes in his arms. As he ran, he kept repeating to himself that in order to get a regular job and to have a good future in the factory, he had to finish this job today even if it cost him his life.

Mrs. Chen stood there, looking at Yan Jiecheng's embarrassed and arrogant appearance, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. She thought to herself that this young man was quite interesting, but she still shouted, "Little Yan, slow down, don't fall, don't worry, if you can't move much in one trip, just do more trips."

Although there was concern in that tone, there was also a hint of sarcasm.

After moving the coal several times, Yan Jiecheng was so tired that he was out of breath and sweating all over. His clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck to his back. His face was covered with black and white marks from the coal balls. He looked extremely miserable.

He was standing there, holding his knees with his hands, breathing heavily, feeling extremely regretful, thinking to himself that he was just looking for trouble.
In order to please Mrs. Chen, I took on such a difficult job, but it's too late to regret now. I have already done so much. If I give up halfway, all my previous efforts will be in vain.

In order to curry favor with Director Chen of the Logistics Department, I had to grit my teeth and continue working.

While panting, he kept encouraging himself, muttering in his heart: "Hold on, Yan Jiecheng, once this job is done, once Director Chen is happy, your promotion will be a sure thing. You can't let all your efforts go to waste."

At this moment, a burst of laughter suddenly sounded nearby. When Yan Jiecheng heard the voice, his heart skipped a beat. It was Banggeng's voice. Banggeng yelled, "Yan Jiecheng, you are such a lackey. Haha, you are willing to do anything to curry favor with the leader. Look at how embarrassed you are now. It's really embarrassing. I look down on you!"

It turns out that after Banggeng got off work, Yan Jiecheng spit on him, and he was furious. No matter how he thought about it, he felt unconvinced. Why could Yan Jiecheng bully him so arrogantly?
So he followed Yan Jiecheng quietly all the way, hoping to find an opportunity to vent his anger.

Seeing that Yan Jiecheng was so tired and still trying hard to please his leader, he could no longer hold back the mockery in his heart and started cursing.

When Yan Jiecheng saw Banggeng appear, he was so angry that he wanted to rush up and beat him up again, just like he did in the workshop during the day, to let him know how powerful he was. But at the moment, he was carrying coal briquettes, and he was so tired that he could hardly lift his arms. How could he have the energy to fight? He could only suppress his anger, pretending that he didn't see Banggeng, and gritted his teeth to continue carrying coal briquettes upstairs.

In this way, Yan Jiecheng went back and forth, time and again, and with great effort, he finally carried all the hundreds of coal briquettes to the fifth floor. When he finished the last trip, he was almost exhausted. He leaned against the wall, gasping for breath, with black and white spots on his face, just like a miner who had just crawled out of a coal mine. At this time, Mrs. Chen saw that Yan Jiecheng had finished moving all the coal briquettes, with a smile on his face. She hurried forward and said gratefully: "Oh, little Yan, thank you so much. If it weren't for your help, I really don't know what to do. You are such a kind-hearted child."

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng thought to himself, "Huh, I don't want your words of thanks. I've worked so hard for half a day just to let Director Chen know my feelings. It would be worth it if I could get Director Chen's thanks. It would be even better if he could help me with my job promotion." But Director Chen hasn't come back yet. This won't do. I have to find a way to wait for him to come back.

So, Yan Jiecheng forced a smile on his face, and said to Mrs. Chen in a slightly flattering tone: "Sister-in-law, you are too polite. This is what I should do. I have been busy for a long time, and my throat is about to smoke. Can you let me into the house to have some tea? I will leave after a rest." In fact, he just wanted to take the opportunity to wait for Director Chen in the house so that he could show off his achievements in person.

Who knew that when Mrs. Chen heard this, the smile on her face immediately faded. She looked at Yan Jiecheng, who was dirty and covered in coal dust, and felt a little disgusted. She frowned and refused in a cold tone: "Little Yan, you are so dirty. You will make the house dirty when you come in. I won't pour you tea. You should go back and clean up. Thank you for today."

When Yan Jiecheng heard this, he was so angry. He was exhausted and put in so much effort, but in the end he got such a cold rejection. But he didn't dare to argue with Mrs. Chen. After all, she was Director Chen's wife. If he offended her, all his previous efforts would be in vain, and it might even leave a bad impression on Director Chen.

He could only suppress his dissatisfaction and said with a smile: "Well... okay, sister-in-law, I'll go back first. If you need any help, just tell me." After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs dejectedly.
After leaving the dormitory building, Yan Jiecheng looked around and didn't see Banggeng, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself, fortunately that guy didn't continue to stare at him. If Banggeng saw his embarrassed look just now and his appearance being despised by Mrs. Chen, it would be really embarrassing. He would probably be laughed at for a long time.

At this time, the sky was already dyed with a touch of gorgeous sunset glow. The afterglow of dusk sprinkled on the earth, covering the entire sawmill with a soft halo. Yan Jiecheng looked up at the sky and felt that it was about time. Zhong Yuemin and the others should not still be guarding the gate of the courtyard, so he left the sawmill and prepared to go home.

On the other side, Zhong Yuemin, Liu Haiyang and Zheng Tong changed into workers' clothes as planned, and after dressing up, they came to the outside of the timber factory, found a hidden place where they could see the factory gate, and waited there quietly. They were all thinking that when Yan Jiecheng got off work, they would find the right opportunity to block him and ask for the new energy vehicle ticket.

But after waiting for more than an hour after get off work, there was still no sign of Yan Jiecheng. Zhong Yuemin became impatient, frowned, and looked unhappy. He turned to look at Liu Haiyang, and said with a bit of complaint in his tone: "Liu Haiyang, your information is wrong. Didn't you say that Yan Jiecheng works in the logistics department of this timber factory? It's been so long since get off work, where is he? Why hasn't he come out yet? Could it be that you have been fooled?"

When Liu Haiyang heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly explained, "Brother Yuemin, my information must be correct. I spent money to get the information from Liu Haizhong. He said clearly that Yan Jiecheng is in the logistics department of the timber factory. Maybe he is working overtime or has been delayed by other things in the factory. Let's wait a little longer, and we will definitely be able to wait for him."

Zheng Tong also echoed, "Brother Yuemin, Haiyang is right. Let's wait a little longer. We have waited for so long. We can wait a little longer. If we leave now and miss Yan Jiecheng, all our efforts will be wasted."

Zhong Yuemin listened to what the two said. Although he was still a little unhappy, he thought he could only wait and see. So he patiently continued to wait there, staring at the gate of the sawmill without blinking.
At this time, Liu Haiyang had sharp eyes and had been staring at the factory gate. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he saw Yan Jiecheng walking out of the factory slowly. He was very familiar with that figure. Liu Haiyang hurriedly said to Zhong Yuemin excitedly: "Brother Yuemin, look, Yan Jiecheng is coming out, it's him!"

When Zhong Yuemin heard this, he instantly became alert. Without saying a word or hesitation, he immediately rushed towards Yan Jiecheng like a cheetah finding its prey. His speed was so fast that it created a gust of wind.

Zheng Tong, who was watching from the side, felt a sudden shock in his heart, thinking that this was not good. He knew very well that
This place is too close to the main gate of the sawmill, and there are security officers on duty and patrolling at the gate. If we try to arrest someone here, we will definitely be discovered by the security officers, and then we will be in trouble.

Zheng Tong quickly reached out to grab Zhong Yuemin, and shouted anxiously: "Brother Yuemin, don't be impulsive. This place is too close to the gate. There are security officers here. Let's wait and find a place where there is no one before we do it!"

But Zhong Yuemin was not in a position to listen at this moment. His mind was full of thoughts about catching Yan Jiecheng and asking for the new energy vehicle ticket. He ignored Zheng Tong's calls and walked faster, running straight towards Yan Jiecheng.

When Zheng Tong saw this, he knew that he couldn't stop him. He sighed helplessly and thought that Zhong Yuemin was too reckless.

But they couldn't just watch him go alone, what if something went wrong? So he had no choice but to look at Liu Haiyang, and they both gritted their teeth and rushed out, praying in their hearts that they would not be seen by the security officer, otherwise this matter would become a big deal.

Yan Jiecheng was walking at the moment, still thinking about what happened today, and didn't notice the movement behind him at all.

When he finally heard hurried footsteps coming from behind him, he subconsciously felt that something was wrong. When he was about to turn around to look, it was too late.

Zhong Yuemin rushed forward, stretched out his hand, and grabbed his collar tightly. The force was so strong that it made Yan Jiecheng's neck feel uncomfortable.

"Yan Jiecheng!"

Yan Jiecheng was startled by this sudden move. His body suddenly stiffened, his eyes widened, and he turned his head in panic. When he saw that it was Zhong Yuemin, his heart skipped a beat. He secretly cried out in fear, and his face instantly lost color. He stammered, "Zhong... Zhong Yuemin, what... what do you want to do? Quick... let me go!" (End of this chapter)
