Chapter 193 The shrewd Jia Zhang!

Jia Dongming returned to the courtyard with everyone else. When Jia Zhang saw Jia Dongming coming back, she immediately asked him with a gloating look, "Dongming! How is Old Man Yan? Did the doctor say why he fainted?"

When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's question and saw her gloating expression, he helplessly reminded her, "Mom! Can you not be so obvious? Besides, Third Uncle just had a blood rush and couldn't accept the fact for a while, so he fainted. Are you so happy?"

When Jia Zhang heard what Jia Dongming said, she immediately retorted, "Why shouldn't I be happy? When your brother left last year, the Yan family said in the courtyard that it was me who summoned your father every day and killed Dongxu. Now that something like this has happened to the Yan family, I am not only happy, but I also want to celebrate with firecrackers."

After hearing what Jia Zhang said and knowing what Third Aunt had done, Jia Dongming began to comfort Jia Zhang, "Mom! Let the past be the past. What kind of life do we live in now, and what kind of life do the Yan family live in now? Why are you still obsessed with what happened in the past?"

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming's consolation, she thought of her long-lost eldest son who had returned and became a senior official. Not only did the family eat well, but they also had several houses. Her mood suddenly became much better, and she replied happily: "Dongming! You are right. Now our family has the highest income in the courtyard, and we have three houses. It is many times better than the Yan family."

"As for the Yan family, because of Old Man Yan's schemes, they have lost the affection of their children. Yan Jie has become a person who loves money more than I do. Old Man Yan and Yang Ruihua's future retirement is in jeopardy."

Jia Dongming could never have imagined that Jia Zhang could see things so clearly. This might be what is meant by "those involved are more confused than those who are not involved, while those who are not involved can see things more clearly"!
Jia Dongming looked at Jia Zhang's gloating expression and smiled as he reminded her, "Mom! Don't forget that Third Uncle has more than one son, Yan Jiecheng."

When Jia Zhang heard what Jia Dongming said, she thought of the children of the Yan family and said to Jia Dongming with a smile, "Dongming! Except for the youngest girl, Yan Jiedi, the other children of the Yan family have grown up astray. Even if Yan Bugui wakes up now and no longer plots against the remaining three children, his children will still not take care of him in his old age."

When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's answer, he couldn't help but admire Jia Zhang's vision, because in the plot, Yan Bugui was loyal to calculations. He not only calculated outsiders but also did not let his own sons go. He demanded a return for every penny he spent. He was a pure "Grandet".

With such a father's words and deeds, the children are better than their father. Even when their mother went to work in their own restaurant to get some things, she was looked down upon. When her mother was sick and hospitalized, no one was willing to help with money or help. In the end, it was the fool who took care of her in her old age and till the end of her life.

Thinking of other people's affairs, Jia Dongming smiled and comforted Jia Zhang: "Mom! We just need to live our own lives well. We should stay out of other people's affairs."

When Jia Zhang heard what Jia Dongming said, she suddenly remembered why Jia Dongming went out this morning, and hurriedly asked Jia Dongming: "Dongming! Didn't you go out to play with Lin Qiuyue this morning? How did your talk go? Mom plans to go to matchmaker Wang in two days and go to Lin Qiuyue's house with her to settle the matter between you two."

When Jia Dongming learned of Jia Zhang's plan, he nodded subconsciously and replied, "Mom! There's no problem on my side, just follow my instructions!"

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming's answer, she immediately said happily, "Okay! Then I'll go find Matchmaker Wang tomorrow. Remember to get the letter of introduction first so that you can get the certificate in advance."

After hearing Jia Zhang's instructions, Jia Dongming nodded subconsciously and replied, "Okay, Mom! I understand. When I finish my work, I will go to the factory to get a letter of introduction, and then get the certificate from Lin Qiuyue."

At seven o'clock the next morning, after signing in as usual and having breakfast, Jia Dongming pushed his bicycle to the steel mill.

"Director Jia! Good morning!"

"Director! Good morning! Why are you here so early today?"

Jia Dongming rode his bike to the steel mill. The security guards on duty at the gate saluted and greeted Jia Dongming almost at the same time when they saw him coming. Jia Dongming also greeted the two of them politely before riding his bike towards the office building.

"Director! Good morning!" Jia Dongming had just arrived in front of the office building when Zhang Guoping happened to walk out. When he saw Jia Dongming coming to work, he immediately greeted him politely.

When Jia Dongming saw Zhang Guoping, he remembered what he had told Zhang Guoping before leaving get off work on Saturday, and quickly asked Zhang Guoping, "Comrade Guoping! On Saturday, I told you to represent our security department to visit the three injured comrades. Have you done it?"

When Zhang Guoping heard what Jia Dongming asked, he quickly reported to Jia Dongming: "Director! On Saturday morning, Captain Li and I went to the People's Hospital to visit three comrades. According to your request, we gave each of the three comrades a cash subsidy of 100 yuan, five catties of meat coupons, one catty of sugar coupons, and ten catties of fine grain coupons."

After hearing Zhang Guoping's report, Jia Dongming nodded with satisfaction and instructed Zhang Guoping, "Guoping! Last week, our security department and the branch office launched a joint operation and destroyed another enemy spy den. We seized a large amount of supplies from it. I have already discussed the distribution plan with the branch office. When you are free later, arrange a car to bring back our supplies."

When Zhang Guoping heard what Jia Dongming had said and learned that the branch had supplies to transport, he suddenly felt enlightened and asked Jia Dongming, "Director! How many supplies does the branch have that we need to arrange a truck to transport them?"

When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping's question and saw that he was obsessed with money, he smiled and teased Zhang Guoping, "Guoping! I find that you are just like the third uncle in our hospital, a money-obsessed man."

When Zhang Guoping heard Jia Dongming's teasing, he immediately smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Director! I've been living a hard life for a long time. Now that you're here, our lives finally have a little hope, so I asked out of curiosity."

When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping's question, he stopped teasing Zhang Guoping and introduced with a smile: "There are about 1,500 kilograms of rice, 1,500 kilograms of flour, ten boxes of canned beef, and more than 3,000 yuan."

Zhang Guoping was so happy when he learned about the amount of supplies he could get this time that he immediately assured Jia Dongming, "Director! Once I finish the things on hand, I will immediately arrange a car to go to the branch office to get the supplies back."

When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping's answer and thought about the action the night before, he reminded Zhang Guoping, "Guoping! After you get the money, make a subsidy table. Everyone who participated in the action the night before will receive an overtime subsidy of 10 yuan, plus a can of beef. Everyone who did not participate will receive a can of beef."

When Zhang Guoping learned that Jia Dongming was planning to give benefits to his colleagues in the department again, he remembered that Jia Dongming had only been in office for half a month and had already given overtime subsidies to his colleagues in the department twice in a row. He reminded Jia Dongming with some worry in his heart: "Director! We have already given overtime subsidies twice in the past half month. If we give overtime subsidies again, once the superiors send people to check the accounts, I am afraid there will be some troubles."

Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping's reminder, how could he not understand Zhang Guoping's thoughts? With an expression of indifference on his face, he answered: "Guoping! According to the financial regulations of our security department, can we distribute subsidies for overtime? Since we all work overtime, it is legal and compliant to give subsidies to comrades. As long as we have a clear conscience, we don't have to worry about people from above sending people to investigate."

When Zhang Guoping heard what Jia Dongming said, he thought about the financial system of the Security Department. Just as Jia Dongming said, overtime subsidies can indeed be given, and there is no explicit stipulation on the specific amount of the subsidy. Jia Dongming's arrangement is indeed reasonable and compliant.

Zhang Guoping was also very happy when he thought about getting more money. He smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Director! If the comrades in the department knew that there was more money to be collected today, they would probably be very happy."

When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping's words and thought about the risk factor of the security department, he replied, "Guoping! Although this money is public money, it is also earned by our comrades with their lives. We can't always let the cow run without letting it eat grass, right?"
