Chapter 102 Jia Family Plan
Chapter 102 Jia Family Plan
Last night, Jia's house.
On the way home, Jia Zhang heard someone say that Li Kailang had bought all the three-turn and one-ring tickets, and she was shocked.
However, Jia Zhang didn't believe that Li Kailang could buy it. Some plan came to her mind, and she immediately took Banggeng home.
"Dongxu, Dongxu!" Jia Zhang shouted loudly before she got home.
"What's wrong, Mom? What happened?" Jia Dongxu said hurriedly.
Qin Huairu also came out of the kitchen and looked at Jia Zhang nervously.
"Dongxu, that bastard from the Li family bought three turns and one ring!"
"What!" Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu were also in disbelief.
The only thing they had at home was a sewing machine, which they bought just to marry Qin Huairu, and it cost the family a lot of money.
If the steel mill had not lost a lot of money when Old Jia died, the Jia Zhang family would not have bought it!
Now, Li Kailang actually bought a three-wheeler and a ring. Their life is better than his family's. How can this be possible!
"Dongxu, I think this bastard either stole someone else's tickets or bought them on the black market. Why don't we report him!" Jia Zhang said gloomily.
Jia Dongxu also had the same idea. As Yi Zhonghai's apprentice, he was undoubtedly the number one in the Siheyuan.
Now Li Kailang is more popular than him, he won't agree!
It was impossible for Li Kailang not to make people jealous when he bought the three-turn and one-ring machine.
However, Qin Huairu was still rational.
"Mom, how do you know that Li Kailang stole someone else's ticket? What if someone else gave it to him? We report him, but what if he finds out?"
Qin Huairu thought that this had to be done without leaving any room for anyone to use against her.
"This." Jia Zhang was speechless when asked. She did not investigate, but simply could not bear to see Li Kailang doing well.
If this matter is reported to the police, it would indeed be untenable.
If it is found out, it will be fine. If it is not found out, the whistleblower will be punished.
Suddenly, Jia Zhang found something wrong. Qin Huairu was actually talking to Li Kailang.
"Yes, if it was given by the leader, wouldn't we be telling tales?" Jia Dongxu also felt that what Qin Huairu said made sense.
"What should we do? Let's just forget it. This bastard from the Li family bought so many things, he must be trying to piss us off." Jia Zhang was unwilling.
"Mom, why don't we go find the old man first and let him make a decision? If Li Kailang really stole it, it won't be too late for us to report it later." Qin Huairu suggested.
Jia Dongxu nodded. This suggestion is fine! It is safer to let Yi Zhonghai find a solution.
"Why are we looking for that extinct family?" Jia Zhang grumbled in dissatisfaction, but did not express any objection.
The three of them didn't even have time to eat and hurried to Yi Zhonghai's house.
Yi Zhonghai was eating at this time. When he saw the three people coming, he put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"Why don't you go home to eat when it's time for dinner? What are you doing here?"
It wasn't time for the dinner yet, so the aunt only prepared food for two people.
"Master, I'm not here to eat. I have something to discuss with you."
"what's up?"
Jia Dongxu briefly explained his purpose to Yi Zhonghai.
"Master, what do you think we should do? Li Kailang bought three spins and one ring, and he will live a better life than you in the future."
Jia Dongxu didn't forget to drag down Yi Zhonghai in the end.
Yi Zhonghai would naturally not be affected by such a small matter and pondered for a moment.
"Logically speaking, the bicycle and watch are a bit expensive, but without tickets, the Li family can still afford them. By the same calculation, the sewing machine and radio can also be bought."
"However, this ticket is not easy to get! But if the Li family kid really stole someone else's ticket, would he dare to return it so blatantly?"
The three of them thought about it carefully and felt that what Yi Zhonghai said made sense. They had not thought of this aspect.
"Let's leave it at that for now. Don't report it yet. I'll go to the factory tomorrow to ask and see how the Li family kid got the money."
"Master, what do you think we should do if Li Kailang's ticket was stolen?" Jia Dongxu said immediately.
Looking at Jia Dongxu's cunning eyes, Yi Zhonghai knew that Jia Dongxu was up to no good!
"Why, what do you want to do?"
"Master, I think that bicycle and watch are pretty good. I wonder if I can get them."
"Pa!" Yi Zhonghai slapped Jia Dongxu on the head.
Jia Dongxu screamed in pain: "Master, why are you hitting me!
Seeing this, Jia Zhangshi, who had never beaten Jia Dongxu, immediately cursed:
"Yi Zhonghai, you old bastard, why are you hitting my son?" As he said this, he stretched out ten fingers and grabbed Yi Zhonghai.
If Qin Huairu hadn't stopped him, Yi Zhonghai would have had several marks on his face.
"Mom! Mom! Don't be impulsive! Listen to what the uncle says first."
"Yi Zhonghai, you are a bastard. If you don't explain yourself, I will let you see how powerful I am today!" Jia Zhang cursed.
Yi Zhonghai also knew how out of control he had been just now. Normally he would not do this, but seeing the look in Jia Dongxu's eyes, he couldn't help but do it.
Hearing Jia Zhang scolding him for extincting his family, Yi Zhonghai's face darkened.
"Didn't I just tell you that bicycles and watches don't require tickets? Even if Li Kailang's sewing machine and radio were stolen, you can't take them away."
"Master, I'm not thinking that if Li Kailang really stole the tickets, wouldn't he dare to say anything if we blackmailed him privately?" Jia Dongxu explained.
"Idiot, didn't I just tell you that Li Kailang has the confidence to take it out openly? You still want to blackmail him. Don't you take my words to heart?" Yi Zhonghai said sternly.
"Master, I was thinking that bicycles and watches don't require tickets. When Li Kailang wants to buy them, he will just have to spend a little more money." Jia Dongxu said aggrievedly.
Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai didn't think of this, but he couldn't apologize.
"What's wrong? Your family doesn't have money to buy a bicycle?" Yi Zhonghai asked.
After these words were spoken, Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhangshi didn't know how to respond.
Jia Dongxu would secretly hide some every time, but it would only take a few days.
Jia Zhang controlled the family's financial power. All that money was her retirement money, and she was only allowed to bring it in but not spend it. It was impossible for her to buy these two unrealistic things.
Besides, nothing is better than something free if you buy it!
"Master, isn't it true that free ones are the best?" Jia Dongxu said aggrievedly.
"Master, you are a level 84.5 worker and earn yuan a month. Why don't you buy a bicycle?"
"Why buy it? The yard is not far from the steel mill. It's just a matter of walking a few steps. Why spend that extra money?" Yi Zhonghai said disapprovingly.
"Okay, you guys go back. I will ask about the ticket issue myself tomorrow." Yi Zhonghai said to them.
Hearing this, the three of them could only go back in disgrace.
"Dongxu, think about this bastard from the Li family. Was the ticket stolen?" After returning to the room, Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu began to discuss countermeasures.
"Mom, didn't Yi Zhonghai say that? I think this matter is up to you! However, we have to make preparations for both situations. So, tomorrow you can have someone report Li Kailang."
"No matter if it was stolen or not, if it was stolen, we will get a share of the benefits. If it wasn't stolen, it's none of our business."
"Good idea! Dongxu!" The two were whispering there, discussing how to deal with Li Kailang.
Qin Huairu looked at the two of them and felt a little disgusted, but she didn't know what to say since she was in the middle of it! She could only let it go.
-
The next day, Jia Zhang couldn't wait to go out and chat with someone.
"Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao!" Jia Zhang shouted.
"Oh, isn't this Zhang Cuihua? How come you have time to come visit us? Are you here to borrow money again?" Aunt Zhao asked vigilantly.
"No, no, I don't want any money. I just want to take part in a good cause."
"What good news? Zhang Cuihua, don't lie to me. If you dare to lie to me, you know how powerful I am!" Mrs. Zhao asked with a look of doubt.
"How dare I lie to you!" Jia Zhang said immediately, "I have a young man in the yard, he bought three turns and one ring!"
"Tell me, what's the good news?"
Jia Zhang explained, "It's like this. There's a young man in my yard who bought three turns and one ring! This is three turns and one ring!"
"Oh, this kid is really rich. This ticket is not easy to get! What? Are you blackmailing him?" Mrs. Zhao said with disdain.
"No, we found out that this guy's tickets were stolen. I don't want to cooperate with you. You go and report him!" Jia Zhang explained.
"Why don't you report it?" Mrs. Zhao asked puzzledly.
"Aren't they from the same courtyard? How can you report someone like that? Besides, didn't I hear that your son is getting married?"
"You are not short of something, this is a great gift for you. The ticket was obtained illegally, this is a rare opportunity! Let's share the benefits after the report!" said Jia Zhang.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? If we see anything illegal, we must report it and deal with it, but I want 70%!" Mrs. Zhao said sternly.
No, if you want to do that, I might as well report it myself. Either we split it equally, or I go alone!" Jia Zhang said firmly.
"Okay, okay, okay! Let's split it equally! Or shall we go now?" Mrs. Zhao said impatiently.
"Don't worry, wait until the steel mill gets off work, then go there and I'll keep an eye on it!" Jia Zhang said calmly.
After Li Kailang sent Wang the matchmaker away, he closed the door again.
"I can finally have some free time!" Before he finished speaking, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside the door. Judging from the voices, it was not someone in the yard.
Li Kailang opened the door and saw another acquaintance.
"Thank you, Officer. Why are you here?"
The person who came was the policeman from the police station, Xie Yong, who was standing outside the door with two other policemen behind him.
"Comrade Li, long time no see! I'm here on official business." Xie Yong replied, but with a hint of seriousness on his face.
When Xie Yong arrived, people from the front yard and the back house followed him. Jia Zhang and Yi Zhonghai from the middle yard also followed and looked at him curiously.
"Okay, then you go do your thing and don't worry about me!" After saying that, Li Kailang was about to close the door.
"Comrade Li, wait, this matter is also related to you!" Xie Yong said hurriedly.
"Huh! I don't remember what I did wrong. Why are you looking for me?" Li Kailang looked at Xie Yong in confusion.
"It's like this. Our police station received a report that your sewing machine and radio were obtained in illegal ways. We came to you to question you!"
"Sure enough, was it Jia Zhang who reported it?" Li Kailang said directly, without any need to guess.
"Boy from the Li family, what nonsense are you talking about! How could I report you without any evidence?" Jia Zhang retorted angrily.
"Haha! Everyone in this yard knows that except your family, no one would have the time to report others!" Li Kailang said bluntly.
Everyone nodded when they heard this. Although they didn't say it, it was true.
Seeing that the two were about to continue arguing, Xie Yong quickly interrupted:
"Comrade Li, it was definitely not Jia Zhang who reported it this time!"
"Oh! Really? It wasn't Jia Zhang who reported it! Then the sun really rose from the west! This is really strange!"
Everyone looked at Jia Zhang and found it very strange.
"Li family kid, listen to me, the police comrades have said, no, you have to pay me money and my reputation, just 5, no, 10 dollars!"
Xie Yong looked at Jia Zhang's loud mouth and said, "Jia Zhang, I am just suspicious. You keep asking for 10 yuan. This is extortion."
Xie Yong looked at Jia Zhang and was speechless. Anyone who blackmailed in front of the police must be a fool.
Without paying much attention, Xie Yong decided to deal with his business first.
"Comrade Li, I wonder if you could explain the origins of the sewing machine and the radio."
The residents were watching outside, and everyone wanted to know where the ticket came from. Some people were even gloating.
"Okay, the proof is inside. Officer Xie, please wait a moment."
As he said that, Li Kailang went in and took out the gift certificates of the two tickets and Li Huaide's IOU that he had prepared long ago from the cabinet.
"Thank you, Officer. Take a look!"
Xie Yong first looked at the radio certificate, which not only had the signature of Sun Yongkai from the Purchasing Section 3, but also the seal of the Section 3.
Li Huaide only had his own signature, but his name was enough to prove the origin of the ticket and also prove Li Kailang's money.
In this case, it would be nonsense to say that Li Kailang was reported.
"By the way, Officer Xie, please keep the information of these two people confidential."
"Don't worry, protecting people's privacy is what we should do," Xie Yong assured.
One is the head of the purchasing department and the other is the deputy factory director. Both of them are powerful figures and either of them has the ability to get these two rare tickets.
The fact that Li Kailang was able to establish connections with these two people shows that he must be very capable.
"By the way, Officer Xie, you can see that the source of my ticket is also legitimate. I want to know who reported me!" Li Kailang asked.
"That's not a problem! It was Mrs. Zhao who reported it!"
"Mrs. Zhao? Who is she? I don't know her. Why would she report me?" Li Kailang was a little confused.
"You don't know him? Then why would he report you for no reason?"
"I don't understand. I don't even know her. Why would she do this?" Li Kailang was confused.
"I don't know about that. Maybe she has some relationship with Jia Zhang." Xie Yong guessed.
As the two were talking, the noise outside became louder and louder.
"I think the ticket might have been stolen. This is why the police came to look for someone," Jia Zhang said confidently.
"Mom, stop talking! There are so many people watching!" Qin Huairu pulled Jia Zhang's clothes and said in a low voice.
Qin Huairu was also convinced by Jia Zhang's brain. She originally denied that she was the one who reported it, but looking at this situation, it seems that she must have been the one!
Jia Zhang shook Qin Huairu's hand away and said unhappily, "What's there to be embarrassed about? I stole it, otherwise why would the police come to our house?"
Seeing Jia Zhang's solemn promise, Yan Bugui felt relieved.
"Fortunately, I didn't ask the kid from the Li family to borrow it to listen to, otherwise I would be in trouble!" Yan Bugui thought proudly.
Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Zhang and felt a little dissatisfied.
Yi Zhonghai thought to himself: "You just told me not to mess around yesterday, but you dare to report me today. It seems like you didn't take my words to heart!"
Yi Zhonghai asked around today and only knew that Li Kailang had been called to Li Huaide's office. Although he didn't know what it was about, he could guess that it was these two objects.
Looking at Li Kailang's fearless look, nothing should happen.
"Let's go, there's nothing to see, let's go back." Yi Zhonghai said to the aunt.
Next, Jia Zhang will be in trouble. If that’s the case, why should he care!
However, things went against her wishes. Jia Zhang learned her lesson and listened to Yi Zhonghai's advice. She did not report it herself, but asked Zhao Po to do it instead.
When the aunt saw this, she didn't stop.
The Jia family watched the two people leave without saying anything, just watching the excitement!
Not long after, Li Kailang and Xie Yong came out of the house.
Seeing that Li Kailang came out safely, everyone couldn't believe it.
"What? Are you sad because I didn't get caught?"
Li Kailang looked at the Jia family. Everyone else was just watching the fun, but the Jia family, especially Jia Zhang, couldn't stand others living better than them.
Everyone looked at Xie Yong, waiting for him to speak.
Xie Yong also said bluntly: "After investigation, there is no problem with the source of Comrade Li Kailang's sewing machine and radio. We will deal with the whistleblower seriously."
Jia Zhang was unhappy when she heard this. How could there be no problem? There was no problem with the source of the tickets, but what about the money?
Thinking of this, Jia Zhang immediately ran over.
"Comrade police, where is the money used to buy the items? It's quite a lot. Was it stolen?" Jia Zhang questioned loudly.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, please don't slander Comrade Li. Comrade Li borrowed money to buy the items." Xie Yong replied seriously.
"Who is this bastard who actually lent it to the Li family and is deliberately making things difficult for me?" Jia Zhang shouted angrily.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xie Yong frowned instantly. This Jia Zhang was also stupid.
He said to Jia Zhang seriously, "Jia Zhang, please don't make groundless accusations. Comrade Li Kailang borrowed the money from the leader of your steel mill, and a receipt has been written."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu's faces changed. They obviously did not expect such a result.
If this matter gets out, their future will be ruined.
"I'm sorry, everyone. My mother just had a hysterical attack. I don't know what she said. Don't take it seriously." Qin Huairu quickly stepped forward to explain.
Everyone listened to the explanation, but no one spoke, and no one agreed.
Logically speaking, Sha Zhu should come out at this time to confirm what Qin Huairu said, but why didn't he come out?
Originally, Sha Zhu was about to be released from the foundry workshop, but because Sha Zhu talked back to the canteen director, he has not been released yet, and his work intensity has doubled instead.
The foundry worker looked at Sha Zhu, wondering how he had offended his leader.
Now Shazhu is still lying at home. He is as tired as a dog every day, sweating profusely and emitting a sour smell.
Everyone was too busy to get away, how could they possibly get close?
"Okay, the matter has been investigated clearly. Comrade Li is innocent. We will go back first!"
After saying that, Xie Yong left with two policemen. He still had to deal with the whistleblower.
If the report is true, Li Kailang will naturally be arrested.
If the report is untrue, there will naturally be punishment.
Seeing that everyone was there, Li Kailang came up with an idea.
"Everyone, I've spent all my money on these two big items. Now I'm broke. I wonder if you can lend me some money to get through this month."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the residents found various excuses and left immediately.
