Chapter 175: The Street Office’s inspection of food in the cellar was exposed?

After a day's work, Li Kailang returned to the courtyard after get off work.

At the same time, Xiao Zheng from the Street Office came to the courtyard.

Li Kailang came to the front yard and found that there was no one in the back house and the front yard.

Li Kailang was puzzled: "That's strange, why didn't I meet anyone today?"

At this time, a voice came from the middle courtyard.

Xiao Zheng stood in the middle of the courtyard and announced loudly: "Everyone, the street office has a task, and our courtyard must also hand in enough iron materials."

"The amount of iron materials our courtyard has delivered is too little, even less than other courtyards. This is not acceptable!"

Yan Bugui said in embarrassment: "Xiao Zheng, it's not that we don't want to hand in the iron materials, it's just that everyone has handed in the iron materials and there's not much left at home."

"If you pay more iron materials, there won't even be anyone to cook at home."

Hearing this, Xiao Zheng was helpless: "Uncle, I understand your difficulties, and I would like to ask you to understand mine."

"The higher-ups have issued a notice that every courtyard has an iron material task. If you don't have enough iron materials, you must find a way to complete the task."

"I don't want to force you, but this is a task from above. I'm just here to remind you that if the leader comes, he won't be as easy to talk to as I am."

Hearing this, everyone pretended to look bitter.

Yan Bugui asked again: "Can't you give me some more time?"

Xiao Zheng spread his hands, looking helpless, the meaning was self-evident.

At this time, Xu Damao stood up with a sly smile on his face: "Comrade Xiao Zheng, I know who has more iron materials in the hospital?"

"Who is it?" Xiao Zheng's eyes lit up.

Xu Damao slowly turned his head and looked at someone, his eyes fell on Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu suddenly felt uneasy and shouted, "Xu Damao, why are you looking at me?"

Xu Damao pointed at Sha Zhu with ill intentions: "Comrade Xiao Zheng, Sha Zhu has a lot of iron pots at home, so he must have a lot of iron materials."

Sha Zhu retorted: "Xu Damao, stop talking nonsense. I have already handed it in. How can I have any extra iron?"

Xu Damao chuckled, looking confident of victory:

"Silly Zhu, stop lying. You're a chef, who would believe you if you don't have an extra iron pot at home?"

"I saw that you only handed over an iron pot last time."

Xu Damao looked at Xiao Zheng and said provocatively, "Comrade Xiao Zheng, go to Sha Zhu's house and see if he still has some."

"Xu Damao!" Sha Zhu roared, with an angry expression on his face. "You are looking for death!"

After saying that, Sha Zhu clenched his fists and rushed towards Xu Damao.
"Shazhu, what do you want to do? Do you want to do it in front of us?" Xiao Zheng asked seriously.

"Get out of the way!" Sha Zhu's eyes were filled with anger. He didn't give Xiao Zheng any face at all and rushed straight towards Xu Damao.

"Silly Zhu! Stop right now!" Yi Zhonghai on the side immediately scolded.

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Sha Zhu could only stop helplessly.
Looking at Xu Damao, who was looking smug, making faces and hiding behind Xiao Zheng.

Sha Zhu could only snort coldly.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xiao Zheng with a friendly smile on his face:

"Xiao Zheng, you also know that Sha Zhu is the chef of the steel mill. For chefs, the iron pot is their lifeblood."

"Look, can you please not take away the stupid guy's stuff?"

Hearing Yi Zhonghai's plea, Xiao Zheng's expression eased a little.

"Uncle Yi, it's not that I don't want to help Sha Zhu, but the amount of iron materials your yard handed over is really too little, and I can't just ignore it."

"Now the higher-ups are asking everyone to actively hand in iron materials, but your yard hasn't handed in all the materials yet."

"When the higher-ups investigate, I won't be able to help you with anything that happened. I can only tell you everything."

"When the time comes, what we collect won't just be this little bit of iron."

After hearing this, everyone could no longer understand what Xiao Zheng meant.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu and said, "Sha Zhu, go and hand over all the iron pots you can find at home."

"Uncle." Sha Zhu wanted to struggle, but Yi Zhonghai did not question him: "Go now!"

Sha Zhu responded helplessly and looked at Xu Damao viciously: "Wait until everyone leaves, and then I'll see how I kill you."

Xu Damao was frightened and shrank his head, but when he saw Xiao Zheng in front of him, he stood up again and raised his chest: "Come on, don't wait any longer, kill me now!"

His face was full of arrogance and disdain.

Yi Zhonghai interrupted Sha Zhu directly: "Sha Zhu, go quickly!"

Soon, Sha Zhu came out with two iron pots.

“Pah!” He threw it directly to the ground. “This is all I have. I can’t have any more.”

Seeing Sha Zhu's unhappy face, Xiao Zheng knew that this was the only way to end it.

Regardless of whether Sha Zhu had any extra ones, he had no intention of just taking them from Sha Zhu.

Xiao Zheng glanced sharply at the crowd, and everyone deliberately avoided Xiao Zheng's eyes.

"Everyone knows what's going on. Stop watching. Please go home and get the iron materials."

"The iron materials must be delivered today no matter what. If I have to go to your house to look for them one by one, there won't be just one or two."

Hearing this, everyone looked embarrassed and groaned in their hearts.

It’s better to look for it yourself than to let Xiao Zheng find it, otherwise all the treasured iron pots in the house will be lost.

Everyone set off, planning to go back and get it.

The unhappy Sha Zhu watched everyone leave, and the discomfort in his heart was slightly relieved for a while.

However, he found someone in the crowd with his hands folded, motionless.

Sha Zhu pointed at the man and shouted, "Li Kailang, why don't you go get it?"

Everyone looked at Li Kailang.

Li Kailang replied: "Why should I move?"

Sha Zhu said angrily: "Don't you say there is no extra iron pot at home?"

Li Kailang spread his hands and said indifferently:

"Oh, you're right. I only have one pot at home. If you don't believe me, ask Uncle San. He has been to my house."

"Uncle, is that so?" Xiao Zheng asked Yan Bugu.

"Yes, that's true!" Yan Bugui answered truthfully.

"Uncle San, don't lie. Li Kailang's house is decorated so well, I don't believe that he only has one iron pot?" Sha Zhu asked.

Xiao Zheng also agreed: "Third uncle, you are the uncle in the courtyard, you can't lie, otherwise you will lose your position as the uncle in charge."

Xiao Zheng's meaning is self-evident.

Hearing this, Yan Bugui pondered for a moment, looked at Li Kailang who was standing aside with an indifferent look, and weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

"Xiao Li's house really only has one pot. I've been there before. Silly Zhu, you can't assume that Xiao Li has many pots just because his house is well decorated."

Sha Zhu looked at Li Kailang and said, "I don't believe it. I want to go and see."

Li Kailang showed displeasure on his face. He looked at Sha Zhu and said coldly, "See? Why should I show it to you, Sha Zhu? Who do you think you are?"

"You!" Sha Zhu pointed at Li Kailang.

Li Kailang responded rudely: "You! What do you mean by you! Stupid Zhu, are you looking for a fight?"

After saying that, he stretched his joints and walked towards Shazhu.

"Silly Zhu, have you forgotten how I beat you last time? It just so happens that I have learned some martial arts recently and was worried about not having anyone to serve as a live target, so I'll use you to try it out."

Sha Zhu looked at Li Kailang's approaching figure and recalled the two times he was beaten by Li Kailang before. The difference in strength alone was enough to make him unable to fight the God of War.

Now that Li Kailang has learned martial arts, how can he win?

However, at this critical moment, Xiao Zheng suddenly spoke:

"Li Kailang, don't be impulsive. Sha Zhu just wanted to confirm it, he has no ill intentions."

Xiao Zheng turned his gaze to Yan Bugui: "I believe Third Uncle wouldn't lie, so there's no need to go to Li Kailang's house."

"Hmph." Sha Zhu snorted coldly. He was obviously not satisfied with the result, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, everyone decided to disperse and go home to get the iron materials.

However, Xiao Zheng's next words made them stop.

"Wait a minute, don't rush back to get the iron materials, come with me to the cellar and take a look!"

Xiao Zheng's voice was not loud, but everyone present could hear it clearly.

"Xiao Zheng, where did you say you were going?" Liu Haizhong asked, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"I said, go to the cellar!" Xiao Zheng repeated again with a firm tone.

At this moment, everyone suddenly became panic-stricken.

The cellar, which contained everyone's food, was already filled to the brim.

As long as you go in, anyone can find something unusual.

If Xiao Zheng were really allowed in, they would lose their food supply.

Liu Haizhong stopped him: "Xiao Zheng, the cellar is full of food, and no one in our yard would store iron materials there."

Yan Bugui immediately agreed: "Yes, Xiao Zheng, how could something as valuable as iron be stored in a cellar?"

Yi Zhonghai also added: "Xiao Zheng, you just need to wait for everyone to go home to get the iron materials. There is no need to go to the cellar. It was just cleaned a few days ago. Don't make it dirty." Others also echoed his words, meaning that they all wanted Xiao Zheng to give up the idea of ​​going to the cellar.

Looking at their panicked expressions, Xiao Zheng became more certain that the iron must have been hidden in the cellar.

Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "It's okay, it doesn't matter if it's dirty. I work for the street office, I can't just not go there because it's dirty."

"As for whether there is iron in the cellar, I'll know once I go in and take a look."

"I heard that some yards put the iron materials in the cellar and deliberately prevented our street office staff from checking. I wonder if you do the same?"

Xiao Zheng's words made everyone look at each other in confusion. They didn't know how to answer.

If there is, it would prove that there is iron in the cellar.

If he said no, it would mean that Xiao Zheng was allowed to go in and check, and the food in the cellar would be exposed.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui abruptly changed the subject:
"Xiao Zheng, I have some iron materials at home, and I don't know whether I should hand them in. Could you please take a look for me?"

As he spoke, Yan Bugui blinked and signaled others to cooperate.

Everyone immediately understood what he meant and said, "Comrade Xiao Zheng, I have a lot of iron materials at home, so please come and have a look."

Such an abrupt change of subject did not escape Xiao Zheng's eyes.

There must be a lot of iron materials hidden in the cellar. They are leaving here just as a delaying tactic, planning to take the opportunity to transfer the iron materials.

Xiao Zheng decided, "I'll go check on everyone's iron materials later, but now let's check out the cellar first."

Looking at Xiao Zheng who was unmoved, everyone felt troubled.

They couldn't stop Xiao Zheng from going to the cellar, but they also couldn't let him see the food in the cellar.

Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui exchanged glances and realized that something was wrong.

The three of them stared at each other in the air, and instantly understood each other's intentions.

Yi Zhonghai came to Sha Zhu and whispered, "Sha Zhu, go and cause trouble for Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangqi and make things worse."

Liu Haizhong came to Liu Guangtian's side and whispered, "Guangtian, go find trouble with Sha Zhu and Yan Jiecheng and make things worse."

Yan Bugui also came to Yan Jiecheng and whispered something.

After saying that, the three of them looked at each other and nodded secretly.

Although Yan Jiecheng and the other two didn't know what it meant, they immediately did as they were told.

Sha Zhu suddenly roared: "Liu Guangtian, I have tolerated you for a long time, today I must beat you to death."

Liu Guangtian was not to be outdone: "Come on! Silly Zhu, I'm not afraid of you!"

Yan Jiefang also joined the battle and shouted, "Fuck, add me in broad daylight. I have tolerated Sha Zhu for a long time. I must beat him to death today."

After that, the three of them started fighting.

Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian fought two against one against Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu was fearless. Relying on his strength, he endured the attacks of the two men, and then each of them punched him in the face.

"Ah!" The two men screamed in pain. They didn't expect that Sha Zhu didn't hold back and really hit them hard.

"Damn it, let's beat him together!" Yan Jiefang roared and looked at Liu Guangqi.

It was originally just a performance, but now it’s serious.

The three of them instantly tangled up in a fight, and the battle became increasingly intense.

Xiao Zheng, who was standing by, folded his hands, and watched them fight quietly.

But the fight became more and more intense, and I originally thought it was just a fake fight.

But now it doesn’t feel like that, Yan Jiefang and Liu Guangtian were beaten with black circles under their eyes.

On the other hand, Sha Zhu became braver as he grew older and was not afraid of the attacks from the two men.

"Stop fighting! Stop fighting!" Seeing that the situation was not right, Xiao Zheng quickly stepped forward to stop it.

The others looked on, not understanding what was going on at first, but as Yi Zhonghai and the other two continued to hint at them, they finally understood what it meant.

They all called their sons to join the battlefield.

"Damn, here I come!" One of them shouted and joined the battle.

Suddenly, a group of young people started fighting with each other, and even Li Kailang joined in, wanting to try his skills.

The situation on the battlefield kept changing, and some people took advantage of the chaos to punch Xiao Zheng a few times.

"Ah!" Xiao Zheng screamed and tried to leave the battlefield, but was punched several times again.

He could only hold his head and run towards the outside.

"Stop fighting! Stop fighting!" Xiao Zheng could only hold his head and run towards the outside.

"Ah!" The scream did not come from Xiao Zheng, but from Cui Yuan.

Li Kailang looked in the direction of the sound and saw Sha Zhu becoming more and more courageous, beating up the people next to him from time to time.

"Come on! Come on!" Sha Zhu became increasingly addicted to the fight and completely forgot that he was just acting.

The whole scene became increasingly chaotic.

"Damn, you dare to hit Cui Yuan!" Li Kailang walked over angrily.

Sha Zhu's morale was high at this time, and he was not afraid at all when he saw Li Kailang coming over.

"Li Kailang, I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" Sha Zhu shouted.

"Shazhu, don't think you are good enough just because you beat others. You are still a little naive." Li Kailang said contemptuously.

"Stop talking nonsense and watch the moves!"

Sha Zhu was obviously overwhelmed by victory. He didn't think any more and directly attacked Li Kailang.

Li Kailang was not afraid at all and cleverly dodged Sha Zhu's punch by turning sideways.

Sha Zhu's attack failed, but Li Kailang seized the opportunity.

He took a big step forward to the inside and behind of Sha Zhu's body, tripped Sha Zhu's heels with his feet, and firmly controlled Sha Zhu's lower body.

Then, Li Kailang knelt on one knee, lowered his body, and attacked Sha Zhu's abdomen fiercely with a right straight punch.

Sha Zhu's lower body was entangled and his abdomen was attacked. He fell backwards like a tree blown by a strong wind.

"Ah!" Sha Zhu covered the part where he was hit. The pain stimulated his nerves and he rolled violently.

His face was pale and beads of sweat the size of beans were sliding down his forehead.

"Shazhu!" Yi Zhonghai shouted and hurried to Shazhu's side.

"Wow——" The whole audience was in an uproar again.

"One punch!" Li Kailang defeated Sha Zhu with just one punch, without any unnecessary movements.

"Li Kailang!" Yi Zhonghai looked at Li Kailang and roared.

"Yi Zhonghai, don't look at me, it's Sha Zhu who asked for it!" Li Kailang said indifferently.

It doesn’t matter who Sha Zhu hits, but he can’t hit Cui Yuan.

It was originally just an act, but Sha Zhu actually took it seriously and fought fearlessly.

"Good fight!" Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangqi exclaimed.

Both men had bruises on their faces and some bruises on their bodies. It was obvious that Sha Zhu did not hold back.

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai had nothing to understand. Li Kailang was standing up for them.

"Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!" Xiao Zheng quickly stepped forward, fearing that he would continue hitting me.

He felt some pain in his body, but looking at Sha Zhu who was lying on the ground, he felt that he was still not seriously injured.

"Stop fighting. There is nothing that can't be solved verbally. Fighting is not good." Xiao Zheng said.

He had no time to worry about the cellar now.

"Uncle Yi, please take Sha Zhu to the hospital quickly, make sure nothing happens to him." Looking at Sha Zhu who was groaning in pain, Xiao Zheng ordered.

Li Kailang said calmly: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. It will only hurt for a while, and it will be fine after the pain passes."

Looking at Li Kailang's calm expression, Xiao Zheng felt relieved. If anything happened to Sha Zhu, he would be in trouble.

"Li Kailang, you are so harsh. What if something happens to Sha Zhu?" Xiao Zheng accused.

"I got it! I got it!" Li Kailang waved his hands, not caring at all.

At this point, Xiao Zheng didn't intend to meddle in other people's business anymore, and he decided to leave this place of trouble.

Other courtyards just pretended to fight a few times, but they were really fighting here!

"Okay, just collect the iron materials and put them at the gate of the courtyard. Someone will come to collect them when the time comes."

After saying that, Xiao Zheng left quickly.

Seeing Xiao Zheng walking away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were not allowed to see the cellar, everything would be fine.

"Brother Cui, are you okay?" Li Kailang walked to Cui Yuan and asked with concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Cui Yuan shook his head. Looking at his strong body, it was obvious that nothing was wrong.

"Hiss!" Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian took a breath of cold air.

Their injuries were serious, but they were obviously better than Sha Zhu's miserable appearance.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui wanted to scold Sha Zhu, but seeing his miserable appearance, they didn't want to say anything more about him.

Each of them took their sons back home.

There was no excitement and everyone left.
