The strong fisherman in the courtyard

Of course, if the situation is appropriate, he would also like to support his two godsons and improve their relationship.

"I'll listen to you. What if the Jia family comes to borrow grain again?"

As for He Yuzhu, Auntie was very relieved. At least He Yuzhu seldom came to their Yi family to borrow food or ask for extravagance. But it was different for the Jia family next door.

My goodness, I wish I could come five or six times a week, even the landlord can’t stand it!

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a while and said, "We borrowed a lot of food before, but now we don't have much left. We can come back next time."

"As I said before, the current situation is special, so let's focus on our own family first."

"Okay, now that you put it like that, I feel more confident."

After listening to what Yi Zhonghai said, the aunt smiled even more. Although they didn't have any offspring, they still got along pretty well in their daily life.

He family.

Today is a rest day, so He Yushui naturally takes a rest as well.

"Brother, I just looked at our rice and flour jars and there's not much left. More than half of them have gone in."

While eating, He Yushui reported the situation at home to He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu waved his hand with a broad mind, "Don't worry, you won't starve. The cooks won't starve to death in years of famine. Rice and flour are hard to buy now. If they were easy to buy, I would have bought them long ago."

"But it's okay. There's a lot of food in the steel mill. If I'm really in a hurry, I can just put some in my lunch box."

He Yuzhu said this without any pressure, and there was no sense of digging into socialism. After all, in He Yuzhu's cognition, there was only one saying, "If the cook does not steal, the crops will not be harvested."

He Yuzhu didn't care how others understood it. In his opinion, it was normal for the cook to steal some things from his boss occasionally.

This is also the reason why He Yuzhu is not in a hurry. He is in charge of such a big kitchen in the second canteen of the steel rolling mill and is a formal chef. If he plans to get something from the steel rolling mill, it will be a simple task.

In the original plot, Bang Geng could even enter the steel mill to steal soy sauce, let alone He Yuzhu?

Although He Yushui had corrected it before, she saw that it was impossible to correct it, and she also had uses for the things that He Yuzhu brought back, so she just ignored it later.

"Okay, then be careful, brother."

He Yuzhu nodded carelessly and continued to smoke in a misty manner.

Jia family.

If the Yi family has both food and money, and the He family has the second canteen of the steel rolling mill and can steal things, then the Jia family is the representative of those who have nothing.

Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu of the Jia family are both representative figures of laziness and greed. No matter how hard Qin Huairu works, she can't do anything about it. After all, she doesn't make money at home, so her words don't count.

At this moment, Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu were sticking their butts out and looking into their own flour and rice jars.

Looking at the two rice and flour jars, which were basically filled with nothing but the bottom, the Jia family fell silent.

"Is our food supply so fast?"

Jia Dongxu asked a soul-searching question, but Jia Zhangshi, who doted on Jia Dongxu, was obviously not in the mood to answer his questions.

The kids at home are all big eaters. Besides, they don’t even know what a grown-up kid means. Are they going to eat me to death?

"Dongxu, we have a big family."

Qin Huairu pulled the corner of Jia Dongxu's clothes and said, Jia Dongxu was about to ship the goods when he saw the figure of his own son Banggeng, and immediately understood what was going on.

"Well, I can buy some food from the black market. It's okay if it's a little expensive!"

Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

Although the black market price is indeed high, at least you can buy food! There is no food in the grain store now, and even if there is, it is not something that the Jia family can buy.

At least Jia Dongxu still knows this bit of self-awareness.

"If it doesn't work, go to an old man's house and borrow some more. After all, borrowing once is borrowing, and borrowing ten times is borrowing."

That’s right, this is how thick-skinned Jia Zhang is. Most people can’t say this. Even Jia Dongxu’s face twitched when he heard what Jia Zhang said.

Yi Zhonghai is his master, but not Jia Dongxu's biological father! Besides, even biological fathers are different in this situation!

Seeing that the two were reluctant, Jia Zhang had no choice. Although she could say such shameless words, she couldn't ask her to borrow the money!

Qin Huairu has to borrow it, Jia Zhang doesn't want to lose this person!

"Then Dongxu, let's go to the black market tonight and take a look."

Jia Zhang had no choice but to agree to this for now. If she couldn't find suitable food on the black market, she could go to Yi Zhonghai to borrow some. That was not impossible.

Chapter 210 Li Ming: I care about Yi Zhonghai very much!

Although the situation in the backyard is similar to that in the middle yard, if you really think about it, at least there are still a few families in the backyard who are not too worried about this issue.

Liu Haizhong's family is rich, and Xu Fugui's family is not short of money either. It can be said that as long as they are willing to spend money, they can still survive this disaster by buying food on the black market.

. . . . . .

In the evening, in the front yard, at the Li family's home.

As soon as Mr. Li came back from outside, he brought Li Ming a piece of news that interested him very much.

"I just heard from Mr. Yan next door that many people in our courtyard are planning to go to the pigeon market over at Chaoyangmen tonight."

Father Li had been hanging out outside all day today and was very hungry. Although the harvest was not bad, it was mostly coarse grains, and there were all kinds of coarse grains. This was also the hard-earned harvest of Comrade Li this day.

He was so hungry when he got home that he started sharing what he had just heard with his family while eating.

Li Ming suddenly perked up after hearing this. He had planned to take revenge on Yi Zhonghai before, but he never had the chance. Comrade Li just said that many people in the hospital were planning to go to the black market tonight, and he didn't know whether Yi Zhonghai was going to go.

"Dad, do you know who's going tonight?"

Li Ming asked curiously.

In a short while, Lao Li had finished making a steamed bun with two layers of dough.

"Well, in the front yard, there should be only the third uncle. In the middle yard, I heard that there should be that old man Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu."

Comrade Li Weiguo fell into thought, "Oh, there should be Liu Haizhong in the backyard as well."

"Tonight, this is a party organized by the three of us."

Li Ming said happily that basically as long as the first and third uncles were mobilized together, he could get involved no matter if there was anything going on in the backyard, Liu Haizhong.

"That's for sure, just the three of them, they're all trouble!"

Li's mother also made a sarcastic remark, but Li Ming watched happily and did not disturb her. However, he had made up his mind that tonight he, Li Ming, was going to teach Yi Zhonghai a lesson!

He had been thinking about dealing with Yi Zhonghai for a long time. Now that the chance has come, if he doesn't seize it, he would be really letting Yi Zhonghai down!

The public security defense team of the old city is very busy at the moment, and most of their busy work is focused on attacking the black market.

If Yi Zhonghai, as the manager of the courtyard house, was arrested by the joint defense team, haha, then there is nothing to say. Li Ming can only wait and watch the fun.

Thinking of this, Li Ming could hardly suppress his smile. After finishing his dinner in a hurry, Li Ming returned to the bedroom. He planned to take a nap first, and when he woke up at night, he would stare at Yi Zhonghai, stare at him intently.

If everything goes well, Yi Zhonghai's heroic deeds will be known all over this area tomorrow.

As for how the joint defense team could accurately locate Yi Zhonghai, Comrade Li Ming said it was very simple.

The disguise mask and voice-changing button that Brother Tongzi gave me before are now useful.

Li Ming directly replaced Yi Zhonghai to run into the joint defense team, and then led the joint defense team to attack the black market. Finally, Li Ming found an opportunity to run away.

As for Yi Zhonghai's appearance, he will definitely be remembered by the joint defense team. By then, not to mention that they will not be able to catch Yi Zhonghai on the black market, they can come directly to the courtyard to rob him.

As for how to make the members of the joint defense team remember Yi Zhonghai’s outstanding performance, Li Ming needs to be more arrogant!

I believe Yi Zhonghai will not blame Li Ming at that time! After all, Li Ming is doing this for his own good. How can a senior official in charge of a courtyard house go to the black market? How can he provoke the joint defense team?

That night, just after twelve o'clock, Li Ming was lying on the bed. His eyes suddenly opened and he raised his wrist to check the time.

"Wow, it's twelve o'clock, just in time, let's pack up and get ready to go."

If you say you won't sleep tonight and let Li Ming do this job, he will be very happy to do it. After all, this is something he likes to do.

After Li Ming finished packing, he tiptoed to the small living room and watched the movements outside without blinking.

If these managers wanted to go to the black market, they certainly couldn't climb over the wall like Li Ming did. They could only go through the front door, which gave Li Ming the opportunity to sit back and wait.

The three uncles in charge of the courtyard did not disappoint. A little after twelve o'clock, Li Ming saw in the moonlight that Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu and Liu Haizhong had arrived at the front yard.

Together with Yan Fugui, who had been waiting in the front yard, the four of them walked out of the main gate of the compound in a carefree manner.

"Good fellow, these four are so careless that they don't even cover their faces?"

Li Ming complained quietly and followed them to the Chaoyangmen black market.

On the way, Li Ming followed the four uncles while paying attention to the movements of the joint defense team, hoping to meet members of the joint defense team in the right place.

After all, this is related to whether Li Ming's plan can be implemented smoothly tonight. Although the joint defense team will appear every night, it is hard to say where exactly they are.

The entire Sijiu City is very large, and there are many joint defense teams in their DC area patrolling at night, but it is a bit of a test of luck to meet them in the right place.

As for the joint defense team, it was a non-governmental organization established by some communities in the 50s to maintain community security. They have many main responsibilities, and the patrol efficiency of the joint defense team is still very high.

Including but not limited to the following aspects:

1. Patrol: The joint defense team will patrol the community regularly to ensure the safety of the community.

2. Dealing with disputes: If there are conflicts or disputes within the community, the joint defense team will come forward to coordinate and help resolve the problems.

3. Fire prevention and theft prevention: They will remind residents to pay attention to fire prevention and theft prevention to prevent crimes from happening.

4. Publicity: They will regularly carry out various publicity activities to enhance the safety awareness of residents.

Of course, there is one last item, which is to cooperate with the public security organs in their respective regions to conduct irregular raids on major black markets, which actually falls under the first patrol item.

At that time, there were many troublesome people and things in the black market of the old city, and the main target of the joint defense team was still the black market in various areas. If the black market could be completely banned, the workload of the joint defense team would be reduced a lot.

However, this thing cannot be completely banned, so the joint defense team can only choose to carry out certain crackdowns on the black market from time to time.

And what Li Ming is looking for today is a joint defense team, preferably a joint defense team that has already planned to attack the Chaoyangmen black market.

After Li Ming watched the four people enter the Chaoyangmen black market from afar, he changed his disguise mask and voice-changing buttons to Yi Zhonghai's style, and then prepared to take a good stroll around.

Even if there were no such people, he would have to find a way to gather a group of joint defense team members. It was because Li Ming loved Yi Zhonghai deeply!

Chapter 211 The Joint Defense Team Returns with No Success

Hard work pays off. Li Ming had been wandering around Chaoyangmen for less than half an hour when he ran into someone from tonight's joint defense team. From a distance, he seemed to be an acquaintance.

It should be Comrade Zhou Tieniu, whom I met when I was stockpiling winter vegetables. He is now leading his men to the Chaoyangmen black market.

Li Ming guessed that it should be just in time for them to clean up the black market today, and he couldn't help but smile. This was like a pillow being given to you when you were sleepy. Isn't this a great opportunity?

When they were stockpiling winter vegetables, the Jia family was taken to the police station, and it was Yi Zhonghai who went to the police station to bring them back. Zhou Tieniu must know what Yi Zhonghai looks like, so now everything is complete.

If Yi Zhonghai was unlucky enough, he might not even need to dig a trap for himself, and he would just run into him! However, in order to teach Yi Zhonghai a lesson and let the old man gain some experience, Li Ming decided to go out in person and teach Yi Zhonghai a good lesson!

As for the other two managers and Jia Dongxu, just ignore them and just go with the flow.

Li Ming took a shortcut and suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Tieniu's joint defense team, and continued to walk calmly towards Chaoyang Gate.

The joint defense team that was following behind was also stunned. How come there was suddenly another person in front of them? Judging from the appearance, he should also be going to the black market!

"Brother Tieniu, look ahead and see if there's another person?"

Zhou Tieniu raised his head and looked forward, "Is that right? But when did this person come out?"

Comrade Zhou Tieniu had some questions, but he could put them aside for now. Logically, if you see the joint defense team at night, shouldn't you run away? Why did this guy act like nothing happened? He was still walking forward leisurely?

"No, what the hell is going on? Brother Tieniu, shall we go up?"

A young man asked again.

As the captain of the joint defense team, Zhou Tieniu naturally has the final say at this moment. Although he is confused about the situation, he can't just watch people run away, right?

The most important thing is that they were holding flashlights. They didn't believe that the person in front of them didn't see the light of the flashlight. If he could see it, why didn't he hide? This person is interesting.

Maybe he was planning to ignore them! How could he tolerate this?

"Go! The one in front, stop!"

Zhou Tieniu shouted and rushed forward with his men. Li Ming was waiting for this shout. He turned his head to look at Zhou Tieniu, and then, fearing that he would not remember, he cursed in Yi Zhonghai's voice.

"Zhao, the joint defense team is a bunch of idiots!"

The sound was not loud, but the people behind could hear it clearly.

Several people from the joint defense team immediately became annoyed and ran forward with all their might. They had never seen anyone so rampant!
