Siheyuan: Why does your brother beat you up every day, Shazhu?

"What can you catch with this? It's just a little water swell, okay? And yet he enjoys doing this every day!"

"Ouch!" Zhou Zhenbang laughed so hard he almost threw his fishing rod into the river.

"Talent! Your hospital is truly full of hidden talents! Yan Bugui... the one with the glasses and the temples taped up?"

"Yes, yes, yes! It's him!" He Weiguo was also overjoyed.

Zhou Zhenbang smiled and shook his head, then said:

"Then your Compound No. 95 is truly a place of outstanding people and talented people!"

(P.S.: Dear godfathers, I am in the verification period these days, so I can’t update as quickly as before! I will resume updating after the verification period is over. If you think this book is good, please add it to your bookshelf and give me a good review. Thank you!)

Chapter 39: Use of Gun Permit

Soon, two hours passed and it was ten o'clock in the morning.

To be honest, the fishing progress was much better than He Weiguo expected!

He was sure that the Air Force would be defeated today.

I don’t know if it was because the heavy bait made with a few pounds of wine dregs worked wonders, but by now, the two of them had already caught five or six fish!

Although they were not big in size, the largest one was only about 4 taels, and the rest were mostly small crucian carp weighing around 2 taels, but this real harvest was enough to make the two brothers smile.

Zhou Zhenbang took out his cigarette case, put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it, then tossed the cigarette case and the matchbox to He Weiguo, blew out a puff of smoke, and then spoke:

"Weiguo, how's it going? I hope your brother's fishing skills don't embarrass you."

"Besides, the biggest fish today was caught by me!"

He Weiguo gave a thumbs up sincerely:

“You are this!”

This statement was absolutely true. He had originally thought the old battalion commander was just a fancy equipment guy, but he had no idea that he was truly capable!

Although he himself is not a professional, he has watched many fishing videos online. Judging by the standards of this day, Zhou Zhenbang is definitely a top expert.

After being praised by He Weiguo, Zhou Zhenbang smiled brightly, with a little pride:

"That's right! Don't you even look at who your brother is?"

"Let me tell you, before I joined the army, I would just carry a broken bamboo pole and go fishing in puddles all over the capital!"

"When it comes to fishing skills, there aren't many people in this city who can surpass me! I'm not bragging!"

"I believe this!" He Weiguo said firmly.

Zhou Zhenbang looked at his serious expression and laughed: "Hey! It's rare for you to be so sweet!"

"Tell the truth." He Weiguo also took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep puff.

Now he really understood the fisherman's feelings.

Although I only caught one fish, and the rest were basically all thanks to Zhou Zhenbang, this feeling... is so fucking exciting!

No matter how big or small the fish is, just stare at the float on the water surface, your heart hanging in the air, waiting for the pleasure of it suddenly sinking, which makes you unable to stop.

When he first came, he was still impatient and just thought of it as accompanying his leader to complete a task. Now it is different. His eyes are like glued to the float, hoping to catch another fish!

"Brother," He Weiguo couldn't help but say:

"This fishing thing is really addictive! If you want to go fishing again, call me! We can go together!"

Zhou Zhenbang nodded:

"Okay! But... I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities like this in the future."

He flicked the ash from his cigarette, his tone somewhat helpless:

"Once I officially start working, I'll be busy!"

"I finally have a day off, but who knows what might get in the way."

"Enjoy today and tomorrow. After tomorrow, you'll have to report to the factory."

In fact, He Weiguo had no objection to going to work.

He really wanted to see what drivers of this era were like.

He made a living from this in his previous life, so driving is a piece of cake for him.

In addition, the original owner was a driver and could repair cars, so the job in the transport team was very suitable for him.

At this moment, Zhou Zhenbang continued:

"Weiguo! I've applied for a gun license for you. It should be available in a couple of days. With this, you can drive your sports car more safely."

He Weiguo nodded after hearing this, and was not too surprised. After all, Zhou Zhenbang was the deputy director of the Dongcheng District Armed Forces Department.

But he still had some doubts, and said:

"Brother, now that I have my gun license, when do I go to get my gun? Do I go directly to the Armed Forces Department?"

"What the hell are you dreaming of!" Zhou Zhenbang rolled his eyes at him unceremoniously.

"Are you still in the army? Do you think you can wear a gun on your waist and show it off every day?"

"Let me tell you, kid, this certificate only proves that you are qualified to carry a gun in certain circumstances!"

"How to get it depends on your factory's arrangements!"

"Every time you go on an important mission, you have to take your mission list and gun license to your factory security department to apply first! Once they approve it and register it, you can get your gun out!"

"Once the mission is completed, the guns must be returned immediately in their original condition! The factory will keep them!"

"You have no right to hide it! Do you understand?"

"Oh..." He Weiguo nodded.

I really thought it was simple before. I thought that once the certificate was approved, I could legally carry a gun with me.

It seems that now you can only apply for a gun when you are on a specific mission, return it immediately after use, and strictly report the entire process.

Come to think of it, if guns weren't strictly controlled, who knows how much trouble they could cause.

Seeing that he was a little distracted, Zhou Zhenbang thought he was still thinking about the gun, and said:

"Stop imagining it, kid! You've already retired, why are you still thinking about that piece of metal?"

"That thing isn't any good!"

"Don't worry when you go to work at the factory. I've already made all the necessary arrangements. No one will deliberately embarrass you."

"Plus, I have complete confidence in your ability to deal with people! You'll definitely be able to thrive there!"

He Weiguo was not thinking entirely about the gun just now, but when he heard Zhou Zhenbang say that even the factory had arranged everything for him, a warm feeling in his heart surged up again.

No matter what else, the old battalion commander was really good to him and always thought ahead for him.

"Brother," He Weiguo said, looking at the ripples on the river surface, his voice lowered.

"Ever since I joined the army, you've always taken care of me. I'm so..."

Zhou Zhenbang waved his hand and interrupted him:

"Why bother talking about those old things? Don't bring it up again! Let's just move on and live our lives!"

"But..." He Weiguo's tone was sincere, "You've helped me so much... I don't even know how to thank you!"

Zhou Zhenbang glared:

"Are you out of your mind? You're still thanking me? What kind of relationship do we have?"

"They fought from north to south, from home to abroad, and came back together in one piece! They were brothers who fought for their lives!"

"To me, you've already been my biological brother! Your business is my business!"

"Just give the factory a heads-up. It's a matter of principle and ease! Besides, I know you're a capable driver and mechanic. Just get down to business and don't mess around with those empty promises!"

He Weiguo nodded vigorously: "Okay!"

He paused and said:

"Hey, bro, are you free tomorrow?"

Zhou Zhenbang: "What are you doing?"

He Weiguo: "I'll just treat you to a meal."

When Zhou Zhenbang heard this, his brows instantly frowned.

He Weiguo knew that his old battalion commander had misunderstood, and quickly said:

"My brother, Zhuzi, is a chef at the steel mill. His cooking skills are top-notch! Come to my house tomorrow and let him show off his cooking. Would you like to try it?"

Zhou Zhenbang was a little reluctant to be treated to a meal, as he felt that helping each other was the norm among brothers and there was no need to be so formal.

But when I heard that we were going to He Weiguo's house for dinner, the discomfort in my heart immediately disappeared -

This feels completely different!

Going to someone’s home for dinner means visiting and getting close to each other!

If He Weiguo invited him to a restaurant for dinner, it would seem like he was repaying a favor and would be awkward!

He grinned:

"Sure! Let your brother prepare some delicious dishes tomorrow! I'm looking forward to trying them! Let's set a time, and I'll see when it's convenient for you to come over."

He Weiguo thought for a moment and said, "In the afternoon? My brother has to go to work during the day. I'll prepare the ingredients in advance."

"Come over for dinner tonight and bring your sister-in-law and nephew along."

Zhou Zhenbang readily agreed: "Okay! It's settled!"

Before he could finish his words, the float on the water that He Weiguo was staring at suddenly sank!

"I caught a fish!" He Weiguo shouted softly, shook his wrist, and pulled up the rod suddenly!
