Courtyard House: Jia Zhangshi! How dare you hit my sister?

Hearing Zhang Dabiao's familiar voice, Qin Huai'an felt a warmth in his heart and quickly said:

"Commander, everything is going well for me. My work and everything else have been arranged."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dabiao let out a hearty laugh:

"Good that everything's arranged! But you little rascal, I need to give you a warning!"

"When you get back there, this place won't be the military base. Don't act like you did back in the army, you hear me?"

"Otherwise, you won't even know how you got yourself into trouble!"

Qin Huai'an nodded: "Yes, Commander, I know."

"You know nothing!" Zhang Dabiao retorted.

"You little brat, do you think I don't know you? You agree so readily, but when things actually get tough, your brain's stuck in your ass!"

"By the way, what's up with your call, kid? Spit it out!"

Qin Huai'an didn't mince words and went straight to the point:

"Commander, there is indeed something I need your help with."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dabiao said, "Just say it. Don't beat around the bush. If I can help you, I'll definitely take care of it for you."

Qin Huai'an then spoke, "It's like this, Commander, I have an older sister... you should know that, right?"

Zhang Dabiao grunted, "You've been nagging me about this countless times, what's wrong with your sister?"

Qin Huai'an continued:

"My sister is not doing well in her Jia family. She doesn't have a household registration in the city and doesn't have a formal job."

"I just want to... arrange a formal job for my sister, so she can get a job in a factory."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dabiao exclaimed, "Is that all?"

Qin Huai'an nodded: "That's it."

Zhang Dabiao thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you just wait by the phone, I'll call you back right away."

"Okay, I understand, Commander."

……

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Dabiao stood there stunned for a while.

He was considering who to call for help in resolving this issue.

Actually, the first person he thought of was his old regimental commander, Li Yunlong—Li Yunlong was no longer in the army and had retired to civilian life, and happened to be in Beijing.

Zhang Dabiao was hesitant about one thing: if he asked the old regimental commander for help, it would definitely be resolved without any hesitation.

The problem is that asking Li Yunlong about this feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

However... Zhang Dabiao had another idea in his mind—he still wanted Qin Huai'an to meet Li Yunlong.

The reason why Qin Huai'an was able to become Zhang Dabiao's bodyguard was not only because he suited Zhang Dabiao's taste, but also for other reasons.

That was Qin Huai'an, who looked very much like one of his old acquaintances.

But that person is no longer in this world.

That person was Monk Wei.

Qin Huai'an and Wei Heshang were about the same height and build, and their faces were also four or five parts similar.

Although he wasn't as skilled as Wei Heshang, he was still considered a good fighter in the army.

So over the years in the army, he unknowingly grew very close to Qin Huai'an—this could be seen as a way of remembering his old comrade-in-arms.

Without hesitation, he dialed Li Yunlong's number.

Li Yunlong answered quickly: "Feed? Who is it?"

Zhang Dabiao spoke up, "Commander, it's me, Zhang Dabiao."

A voice came from Li Yunlong's side:

"Hey, you son of a bitch! What position do I hold now? And you're still calling me regimental commander?"

Zhang Dabiao wasn't angry; he just smiled.

"Hey, Commander, isn't this just a habit? I can't change it overnight."

Li Yunlong didn't really take it to heart.

"Get lost! Get to the point, what is it? If there's nothing wrong, don't bother me."

Zhang Dabiao then spoke:

"Commander, I do have something to discuss with you today."

"It's like this, I have a soldier who just got discharged and went to work in the countryside, right in the Beijing area."

"He wants to find a job for his sister and needs help."

"I just realized that since you're here, I'll have to trouble you with this."

As soon as he said this, Li Yunlong immediately started cursing:

"Zhang Dabiao! You're getting worse as you get older, aren't you?"

"You're calling me over something as trivial as finding a job?"

"Besides, those are your men, not mine!"

"Your own soldiers, can't you figure out a solution yourself?"

"Get lost! Don't bother me with this, I don't have time for it!"

Zhang Dabiao wasn't angry at all after being berated by Li Yunlong—he was used to these words, and he would feel strange if Li Yunlong didn't scold him one day.

He said with a grin:

"Oh, Commander, believe me, once you see him, you definitely won't think that way anymore."

Li Yunlong, on the other hand, wasn't so easily convinced:

"Don't try to set me up with those nonsense arguments! I'm not buying it!"

Zhang Dabiao continued:

"No, Commander, please think about this carefully. Why would I lie to you about this?"

"If I really need to find a job, aren't my old comrades-in-arms also in Beijing?"

"It's just getting a job in a factory, can't that be arranged casually?"

"The reason I sent him to see you is because this person is different."

"I already told you, once you see him, you'll definitely change your mind."

After hearing Zhang Dabiao's words, Li Yunlong paused for a moment, seemingly agreeing with Zhang Dabiao's point, and then said:

"Fine, fine! Give him my address and let him come find me!"

"I want to see what's so special about this kid!"

"Zhang Dabiao, I'm warning you, if you try to frame me, I'm not letting this go!"

Zhang Dabiao quickly replied, "Don't worry, Commander, would I joke about something like this?"

Li Yunlong then spoke up, "Alright, alright, I'm hanging up! Don't bother me unless it's absolutely necessary!"

Soon, the sound of the phone being hung up came from the other end.

Zhang Dabiao just chuckled and picked up the phone again to call Qin Huai'an back.

Qin Huai'an answered quickly: "Hello, Commander?"

Zhang Dabiao's voice came through: "Huai'an, I've arranged someone for you. Just remember the address and go there directly when the time comes."

Qin Huai'an nodded: "Commander, please speak, I'll remember."
