Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 655 The mastermind behind the scenes
A month later, Yan Bugui was released, and all the things that were taken away were recovered. With the joint guarantee of his neighbors, the school principal, and the directors of the steel mill, Yan Bugui wrote a self-examination letter and handed it to the Military Control Commission, and only then was he released.

Yan Bugui should feel fortunate and should thank the directors of the steel mill. In fact, this was a big failure of the directors of the steel mill. Now is the time to integrate resources and resume production. Some people at the top have already proposed public-private partnership, which is of utmost importance for the steel industry.

At this time, the directors of the steel mill stepped forward to protect an unknown teacher, who was also a greedy thief. The people from the Military Control Commission immediately reported it to the steel mill's competent department, which was the Ministry of Industry.

The Ministry of Industry carefully analyzed the pros and cons of this matter. They think this is a good thing, so they will give you an exception. You also have to give me an explanation, let our people go to your place to learn, and you also have to guarantee the supply of steel production.

Looking back, this was a major failure of the Red Star Steel Mill at the time, because by the time they reacted, some government-affiliated people had already been fully integrated into the steel mill, and Yan Bugui was just a small pawn in this matter, and a bad one at that.

After Yan Bugui came back, he never left the house. He stayed at home except for work. The flowers he planted at the door had withered, but he never came out to take care of them.

In the blink of an eye, it was autumn. There were only two fruit trees in the garden, one was a pomegranate tree in the backyard, and the other was a jujube tree in the front yard. In September, both trees were ripe. Qi Dasheng watched the brother and sister busying themselves there. Wang Zhan was counting the fruits while packing them into boxes. Qi Dasheng asked curiously, "Why are you counting them?"

While Wang Zhan was busy, he said excitedly: "A lot of people want to send gifts this year, Master, you see, Uncle Li, you have to send one, Brother Liu, you have to send one, Captain Li, you have to send one, and Sister Wang, Mother Li, they all have to send one, I have to calculate it clearly, so that it can be distributed evenly."

In principle, Qi Dasheng agreed with what Wang Zhan said, but when he heard that Wang Zhan was going to send Mother Li away, he remembered some bad things and his face suddenly turned ugly. He now understood that up to now, Wang Zhan didn't know who was behind the collusion to rescue Yan Bugui.

But as for some of Wang Zhan's ideas, he thought about them for a long time before he realized where the problem lay. He had never experienced the world of martial arts, could not distinguish between good and bad people, and believed everyone's words. To put it bluntly, he was too stupid, a complete blank slate.

In the next few days, Qi Dasheng was thinking about how to train this kid, so that at least he could distinguish between good and bad people. Qi Dasheng couldn't stand Wang Zhan's character. Even when he hinted to him that there was something wrong with Mrs. Li, he didn't care at all and insisted on delivering some fruits. He casually said hello to Wang Zhan, said he was going to look for someone, and disappeared. Wang Zhan didn't care either, and took Shi Li to deliver pomegranates and dates to each family.

When he was sent to Li Cuilan, she was very surprised. Was Wang Zhan pretending to be stupid or did he really know nothing? If it was the latter, the child was too naive.

Li Cuilan forced a smile and accepted it. Looking at the backs of Wang Zhan and Wang Li returning home happily, Li Cuilan felt a pain in her heart. She hated Yan Bugui a little bit now. How could he have the heart to scheme against such a simple child.

When Yi Zhonghai came back from get off work, he saw the pomegranates and dates on the table and asked in confusion, "Who sent these?"

Li Cuilan said unhappily, "Wang Zhan and Wang Li said they wanted to give us a taste of something new."

Yi Zhonghai was silent for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he said, "It's rare to see such a pure and lovely child nowadays."

Li Cuilan looked at Yi Zhonghai with sharp eyes and said viciously: "Old Yi, you can plot against anyone, but if you dare to plot against these two siblings, I will fight you to the death."

Yi Zhonghai shuddered instantly, looking at Li Cuilan who was close to being angry, and said guiltily: "I didn't, how could I dare, don't think too much." A few days later, Qi Dasheng came back and dragged Wang Zhan to the front yard. He was silent for a while, and finally said with a stiff upper lip: "I found two cheap masters for you. They will come tomorrow. When they come, you will go with them, but you can't fall behind in the lessons I teach you."

Wang Zhan didn't understand and asked doubtfully, "Why? Why should I leave? What will happen to my sister if I leave? Why do I still need a master?"

Qi Dasheng looked at Wang Zhan who was confused and said, "Just listen to Master. This will be good for you. By the way, where do you put the money you saved? I will save it for you and give it to you when you come back."

Wang Zhan answered casually, "Under the bed board under my bed."

At this time, Qi Dasheng suddenly stood up with a serious expression, looked at Wang Zhan and shook his head, saying: "Wang Zhan, you know, when you answer my questions, you may be left with nothing, and your sister will be left alone. You are too kind-hearted. Remember what your master said, don't trust anyone, including me, your master. You can't understand the human heart of everyone."

Wang Zhan still didn't understand, but he was struggling. The master was the closest person to him, so why couldn't he tell him? Would the master really take his money? Why?

Qi Dasheng looked at Wang Zhan who was still confused, and asked in a different way: "Has your father ever told you what a warrior is?"

Wang Zhan thought for a moment and said firmly: "My father always said that it is better to die standing than to live lying down."

Qi Dasheng shook his head and said, "That's both right and wrong. Let me tell you, only those who can fight are called warriors, and those who can't fight are just dead. You can only fight if you use all means to ensure your combat effectiveness. If you die bravely, you can't be called a warrior. Only those who survive to the end and win can proudly say that they are warriors. You have to know that people's hearts are treacherous, and you have to know how to become the final winner among a group of people."

Wang Zhan was shocked this time, because what his master said completely overturned the knowledge his father taught him. He was silent for a moment, as he himself had never thought about this problem before.

Qi Dasheng did not interrupt his thinking, but finally said: "I will ask your new master to take you on a journey for two years. Where are you going? I don't know, but it will definitely be a journey of hardships and trials. Are you afraid? If you are not afraid, then go out bravely. If you want to see your sister again, you must come back alive. If you are afraid, tell me tomorrow morning."

Wang Zhan was a little hesitant. At this moment, Qi Dasheng asked, "Wang Zhan, do you really understand your father?"

Wang Zhan looked at his master in confusion. Qi Dasheng said seriously, "You don't know your father at all. I think he is just the tip of the iceberg. From what I know, he knows everything, from airplanes and tanks to cars and motorcycles, from Pai Gow and Mahjong to juggling. He knows everything from astronomy to geography. Even if I were to put you and your father in the same room, no matter what we competed, if only one person could come out on top, that person would definitely be your father. There is still a huge gap between you and your father."

It was the first time that Wang Zhan heard someone evaluate his father in this way. Mainly because he himself didn’t know that his father was so capable. That night, Wang Zhan completely suffered from insomnia.
