Siheyuan: Let Yourself Go He Yuzhu

Chapter 15: A plan to cut off the source of trouble for Yi Zhonghai
"This is the charm of power. They can do anything for power. Deceiving their superiors and hiding the truth from their subordinates is a piece of cake. The only thing is that they will over-interpret it and that will be a big problem."

"Take the courtyard where I live as an example. Yi Zhonghai has a strong desire for control. Not only does he want to control your life and future in every aspect, he also wants to enslave you mentally. To this end, he enforces his will in the courtyard."

"That is, we must respect our elders and the elderly. The next generation should listen to the elderly. There are no wrong parents in the world, only children who are not considerate. The elderly are not wrong. If there is a conflict with the elderly, we must apologize to them, etc...."

"I call his will the will of the courtyard. To put it bluntly, it is in the name of respecting the elderly and loving the young to make everyone in the courtyard listen to him."

"To be specific, let's take Yan Jiecheng, the third uncle in the courtyard, Yan Bugui's family, as an example. As long as Yi Zhonghai still lives in the courtyard and is the eldest uncle in the courtyard, Yan Jiecheng can't even think of working in the steel mill, not to mention as an apprentice, even as a temporary worker."

"Even if Yan Bugui used some connections to get Yan Jiecheng into the steel mill, Yi Zhonghai would also use his connections to get Yan Jiecheng into the workshop and make him his fitter, and then he would call them master and apprentice, thus achieving his goal of controlling Yan Jiecheng."

"It's not just Yan Jiecheng. Any young person who wants to work in the steel mill has to pass Yi Zhonghai," said He Yuzhu.

"This is simply a local tyrant." Wei Feng shouted angrily.

Everyone's faces were very gloomy. They thought that the new world was thriving, but they didn't expect that this was all superficial. Section Chief Ma, Wei Feng and Cheng Qiang were better off. The nature of their work was very professional. Although they were also exposed to these dirty things at the grassroots level, they were not exposed to much.

Director Zheng was deeply touched.

"Grassroots work is not easy. Master He, I see that your views on things are very unique. I would like to hear your opinions. Is there any improvement in this mediator system?" Director Zheng said.

"it's actually really easy."

"First, don't be bothered. Divide the street office staff into three groups, led by a street director and two street deputy directors. Every evening after everyone gets off work, lead the team to go to the courtyard to publicize and clarify the duties of the mediators."

"We can't just talk a few words to deal with the problem, but we need to clarify the power of the mediator by giving examples of things that happened in the real world."

"Secondly, establish an inspector above the mediator. Let's take the courtyard where I live as an example. There are three uncles in the courtyard, so an inspector is established above the three uncles. The inspector has no power and cannot control anyone. He is only responsible for keeping an eye on the three uncles."

"Once the inspectors believe that there is something wrong with the three uncles, they must not only stand up and point out the problem and stop it, but also report it to the street office. Although the inspectors do not have the power to remove the uncles, they have the power to apply to the street office.

“At the same time, inspectors must accept supervision and management from the masses.”

"If the public thinks that the three uncles have problems in handling matters, they can report to the inspectors; at the same time, the public has the power to remove the inspectors."

"If the masses think that the inspectors have problems, for example, they team up with the big brothers to bully the people, they can go to the street office and ask the street office to review and see whether to remove the inspectors."

"Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. The only good way is mutual supervision and mutual checks and balances."

"As for whether it will succeed or not, I don't know. This is just my humble opinion. I hope Leader Zheng will consider it carefully. If possible, we can try it out in our courtyard first. If it works, we can promote it. If not, we can ban it." He Yuzhu said.

He Yuzhu said so much just for this sentence.

If you want to deal with Yi Zhonghai and others, simply relying on personal force can only be a temporary success. Even if you solve Yi Zhonghai, there is still Yue Zhonghai. If you want to solve people like Yi Zhonghai at the root, you must have official endorsement and a good strategy. He Yuzhu's little thoughts naturally could not be hidden from Director Zheng and Section Chief Ma, but the two listened to He Yuzhu's words, especially Director Zheng, who listened very carefully, because Director Zheng was from the government and was in charge of this area.

"Master He, you have given nicknames to everyone in the courtyard. For example, you call Yi Zhonghai the Lord of Morality. What is your nickname?" Section Chief Ma suddenly asked with a smile.

"I have two nicknames. One is 'Shazhu', which was given by my eccentric father." He Yuzhu said speechlessly.

"Shazhu, hey, that wouldn't make you a fool. However, your father gave you this nickname probably for the same reason as Gousheng and Goudan. He gave you a cheap name so that you can be raised easily and grow up smoothly and healthily." Section Chief Ma said.

"I didn't expect this, but the nickname Shazhu doesn't sound nice, so I won't let them call me that. If anyone calls me Shazhu, I will add the word 'sha' before their name and call them back. Let's just hurt each other."

"My second nickname is the Siheyuan God of War." He Yuzhu said without any embarrassment.

"Haha, you are the God of War in Siheyuan. You are invincible in all the Siheyuans. Let's practice together when we have time?" Section Chief Ma said with a smile.

Although Section Chief Ma seemed to be joking, He Yuzhu clearly felt the temptation. He Yuzhu didn't care because he could withstand the temptation.

If his background and family situation cannot withstand the test, then he can just run away. While Section Chief Ma was testing He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu was also using Section Chief Ma's testing to determine certain things.

For example, his own background, was he a cook who served people, the so-called hired farmer, or a small business owner who sold buns, or something else? After all, He Yuzhu was not sure of the origin of the heir of Tan family cuisine.

In theory, a cook is a servant and is a hired farmhand. But every cook is different from every other cook. Can the successor of an imperial chef be the same as the successor of a pancake maker?

"Forget it. I'm a cook and I practice flipping the wok every day. I also practiced wrestling with a master on the overpass for a while. I'm very strong. It would be bad if I hurt you." He Yuzhu waved his hand and said.

"Hurt me? Hahahaha, Master He, even though you have a lot of strength, you can really be my opponent if we practice." Section Chief Ma was stunned, then laughed.

Wei Feng and Cheng Qiang also laughed.

He Yuzhu is an outsider and doesn't understand the situation, but they do. Section Chief Ma is the best hand-to-hand combat expert in their bureau.

He Yuzhu also smiled.

"Chief Ma, your experience has limited your imagination, and you know nothing about strength." He Yuzhu said, looked around, then picked up a brick and poked it inside.

"Breaking bricks with bare hands?" Section Chief Ma said disdainfully.

Not to mention him, even Wei Feng and Cheng Qiang can do this. Section Chief Ma believes that he can easily split more than ten bricks of this kind.
