"good!"
Bang bang bang, there was warm applause in the venue.
"Well said! Qin Huairu, as the stewards of the courtyard, we must adhere to these three principles!"
Yan Bugui first praised Qin Huairu, and then said: "Now that the three stewards are here, it's time for us to start running for the chief executive. I suggest that we just hold a show of hands to vote as before, Sister Wang , what do you think?"
Yan Bugui asked Aunt Wang the last sentence.
Aunt Wang shook her head and said, "What I have to do has been done. You can take care of the rest by yourself."
When Yan Bugui heard this, he felt reassured and felt that the position of the first master belonged to him.
In the courtyard house, who has a higher prestige and cultural level than him?
Isn’t it a matter of being a master?
Then he continued: "Okay, let's just vote!"
"Wait!"
At this time, Yu Li suddenly stood up, interrupted Yan Bugui, and said, "I have something to say!"
Yan Bugui looked at Yu Li, and his heart trembled. This woman wouldn't want to compete with him for the position of first master, would she?
Fortunately, what Yu Li said made him feel relieved again.
"I am the second uncle according to the instructions of the neighborhood committee, so I will not participate in the election as the first uncle."
Yan Bugui almost laughed out loud with joy, but still pretended to look regretful and said: "That's really a pity."
Yu Li glanced at Yan Bugui, said nothing, and returned to Li Weidong, as if she really didn't care about anything.
Then Yan Bugui coughed lightly and said: "In that case, let's continue. Those neighbors who agree with me being a master, please raise your hands, and I will write down the number of people."
When the residents heard Yan Bugui's words, you looked at me, I looked at you, and finally half of them raised their hands.
Yan Bugui was not surprised by this. He was still very clear about his reputation in the courtyard.
It's already good that half of the people support it, Qin Huairu will only have less support than him.
Yan Bugui pressed his hand, motioned for everyone to put their hands down, and said: "Very good, next is Qin Huairu, raise your hands if you agree to her taking the position of first master!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the residents all raised their hands.
Even if you don't know how to count, you can still see that there are many more people who support Qin Huairu than those who support Yan Bugui.
Yan Bugui looked at this scene stupidly.
Like a chicken or duck being strangled by the neck, with its mouth open but unable to say a word.
He never expected that he would actually capsize in the gutter.
But why?
Why is it that after being in charge for so many years, my approval rating is still not as good as Qin Huairu's?
Moreover, Qin Huairu showed a strange smile to Yan Bugui from an angle that no one could see.
It's money power. This woman used money power!
Just like buying off Yan Bugui, most of these neighbors who supported her also took advantage of Qin Huairu.
But even if he knew the truth, it would be useless. Yan Bugui did not dare to expose Qin Huairu.
Once exposed, he would not be able to hide the fact that he accepted Qin Huairu's benefits.
By then, let alone the first uncle, he will not even be able to keep his position as the third uncle.
Forgetting Yu Li, a well-connected person, Yan Bugui felt aggrieved to have Qin Huairu, a widow, take the pressure off of him.
He even forgot to announce the results to everyone.
In the end, Aunt Wang saw something was wrong and stood up to announce that Qin Huairu had won this election.
As experienced as she was, she naturally saw that something was wrong with the situation here, but she didn't say anything.
It doesn't matter who is the boss, as long as Yu Li is here, there will be no chaos in the courtyard.
For the subdistrict office, whether it is Qin Huairu or Yan Bugui, if they cannot do their job well, they can just replace them without affecting the overall situation at all.
"Okay, today's conference is here first. Qin Huairu, Yu Li, and Yan Bugui are staying here. The others can go and do what they are supposed to do. Don't gather here!"
After hearing Aunt Wang's words, those residents who wanted to stay and watch the excitement had to leave with their stools.
Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, the two former first and second uncles, had different states of mind at this time.
Yi Zhonghai saw that his plan was successful. Although he was gloomy on the surface, he was already happy in his heart.
Liu Haizhong was quite happy at first after seeing Yan Bugui successfully destroying him, but when he thought that he had lost his position as the second uncle, he suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.
He went back to the house with his hands behind his back.
Without the position of second uncle, he had to go back and think about it carefully.
Yu Li is recognized by the sub-district office, so it is unlikely that she will be pulled down.
What's more, she also has the support of Li Weidong behind her. The most unprovoked person in this courtyard now is Li Weidong, followed by He Yuzhu's wife.
But the positions of Qin Huairu and Yan Bugui can be carefully planned.
Liu Haizhong prides himself on his ability to manage the world, but he has never met a Bole, causing him to remain buried until now.
He is already in his early fifties this year. If he doesn't work hard, he will really have nothing to do when he retires.
Give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle.
Without the position of second uncle, Liu Haizhong has become bolder.
As for Yu Li, Qin Huairu and Yan Bugui who stayed behind, they dispersed after listening to Aunt Wang's instructions.
Yan Bugui was completely devastated.
When he returned to the front yard, the third aunt saw him like this, cautiously came over and asked: "Old man, are you okay?"
It was okay if the third aunt didn't ask, but when asked, Yan Bugui's mentality immediately collapsed.
Crying and saying: "I hate it! I should have thought of it a long time ago. Who is Qin Huairu? How can her benefits be so easy to get? No, it's not her. With her character, she can't be so calculating. Damn it, she can't come up with this money, there must be someone else supporting her behind the scenes!
There are only a few people in our courtyard who have this kind of strength.
Li Weidong, Silly Zhu, and... Yi Zhonghai! "
Yan Bugui was sure almost instantly that this was most likely done by Yi Zhonghai.
Li Weidong didn't like the small-sized management position in the courtyard, and Yu Li was already the second uncle, so there was no need for him to do anything extra.
He Yuzhu had just gotten married and was so tightly controlled by his wife that even if he was willing to support Qin Huairu, he would not dare to do so.
Only Yi Zhonghai, before this hospital-wide meeting, was basically certain that he would lose his position as a senior official.
If he didn't want to lose his right to speak in the courtyard, he would definitely take action.
Supporting a puppet to rise to power is the best option.
As for Qin Huairu, everyone knows that she is a mother if she has breasts. As long as she gives her benefits, she can say anything.
From what Yan Bugui knew about her, it was unlikely that Qin Huairu would take the initiative to run for this position.
It's just that Yan Bugui was dazzled by the benefits Qin Huairu brought him, and he didn't expect this at all.
Now that it's a done deal, there's no point regretting it.
Yan Bugui felt so painful in his heart!
No, this place must be found. Only he, Yan Bugui, can take advantage of others.
There is no reason to swallow your anger even after being plotted against.
Yan Bugui completely forgot that he still had the food stamps he collected in his pocket.
After losing his position as the first master, he was somewhat dazed.
Unlike him, Yi Zhonghai was happily celebrating with Qin Huairu at this time.
"Xiao Qin, you did a great job today. From now on, you will be the master of this courtyard. I happen to have something that I need your help with."
Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai, rubbed his fingers, and said, "Uncle Yi, there is no problem with the work, but do you have to show it?"
Yi Zhonghai's expression changed when he heard this, and he asked blankly: "Xiao Qin, what do you mean?"
Qin Huairu shrugged and said: "Literally speaking, when you ask someone to do something, you have to express it, right? We can't help in vain!"
Yi Zhonghai never expected that Qin Huairu, whom he had single-handedly promoted, would turn his back on her as soon as she took the position.
He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Qin Huairu, don't forget who helped you get into this position!"
Qin Huairu looked at Yi Zhonghai in surprise and said: "As you said, I became this uncle, didn't I rely on the votes of the people in the courtyard? What does it have to do with you?"
"Without the funds I gave you, would you be able to do this?"
"Hey, Uncle Yi, we are familiar with each other. If you talk nonsense, I will sue you for defamation. When did I charge you money? Do you have any evidence?"
Yi Zhonghai was confused, he had some damn evidence!
Originally he thought he could control the greedy Qin Huairu, but reality slapped him hard.
Qin Huairu refused to admit the debt at all. His money was just thrown into the sea.
Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and said: "Qin Huairu, I can hold you up, but I can also pull you down. You have to think about it!"
Qin Huairu chuckled and said, "Let's wait and see. I want to see how you pull me down."
After saying that, Qin Huairu turned around and left, regardless of Yi Zhonghai shouting behind him.
Yi Zhonghai was just a victim of Li Weidong's plan. He had no money left in him. After using him, it was naturally time to throw it away.
Otherwise, with this guy's greed, he might instruct Qin Huairu to do some outrageous things in the future.
So it’s better to get rid of his unrealistic ideas from the beginning.
Even if Yi Zhonghai was angry, he would not dare to expose Qin Huairu.
The current Yi Zhonghai is like an old tattered quilt, but it cannot withstand the tossing. If it continues to toss, I am afraid that the job will be lost.
Yi Zhonghai stood there for a long time, his face changing constantly, red? yellow? green? red? yellow? green? gray.
Like a traffic light.
In the end, he realized with despair that he had nothing to do with Qin Huairu.
In this matter, he could only admit that he was unlucky.
Giving money to help others get into the position of a big boss, but there is no benefit to oneself.
Losing his wife and losing his troops describes his situation at this time.
Ouch, my heart hurts!
*********
Some are happy and some are sad.
Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were all worried about their situation.
Li Weidong's family was full of laughter and laughter.
After the meeting, in order to celebrate Yu Li becoming the second uncle, Li Weidong called over He Yuzhu and his wife, as well as He Yuyu.
Together they made a sumptuous dinner.
He Yuzhu had always been at odds with the three original stewards, but now he was replaced by two, not to mention how happy he was.
"It's long past time to replace people. It's just the three of them who are in charge of things. Besides being biased or biased, Yan Bugui is lucky. According to me, it's best to replace him as well. Then our yard will be in trouble. It’s really peaceful.”
He Yuyu also echoed: "That's right, every time we let them make the decision on matters in our courtyard, it was my brother who suffered in the end. Good change! But Sister-in-law Du Li, you still have to pay attention to some things in the future. If you can't help it, don't do it, lest you cause trouble, the residents in this courtyard are not fuel-efficient."
Yu Li smiled and said, "I know this, and with Wei Dong here, I don't have to be afraid of them."
"That's indeed the truth!"
Brother and sister He Yuzhu and Han Zhizhi all nodded in sympathy.
Whoever dares to bully Yu Li in this courtyard, Li Weidong will definitely not let him go.
There is no one in this courtyard who can afford to offend Li Weidong.
Now he is leading the registered celebrity. If he wants to have evil thoughts towards him, it depends on whether he can afford it.
That night, He Yuzhu and the others stayed at Li's house until very late before leaving.
During this period, Han Zhizhi also mentioned to Li Weidong about going to Northeast China.
The main reason is to remind him not to forget what he promised before.
Naturally, Li Weidong has not forgotten, and has made arrangements. After loading the goods tomorrow, he can go directly out of the city with his people.
There is no need to worry about being interrogated or anything, as long as there is a sign indicating the steel rolling mill, they will usually be released directly.
Probably because she became the second uncle, Yu Li took the initiative tonight, allowing Li Weidong to experience the majesty of a true female knight.
This has never happened before.
But it was precisely because she had run so far that Yu Li felt a little unnatural when walking the next day.
After sending his wife to the street office, Li Weidong left his bicycle with Yu Li, and then walked to the steel rolling mill.
It's not that far anyway, it only takes a few minutes to walk.
When they arrived at the steel rolling mill, Niu Meng had already helped Li Weidong heat up the truck in advance.
This time, only one car was needed to go to the Northeast, which disappointed Niu Meng, who wanted to drive a sports car with Li Weidong.
I feel like my life now is not as good as it would have been if I had never left school.
If you had known earlier, you would have learned more slowly, so that you could graduate later.
How clever is that?
Niu Meng gave herself a hard lesson in her heart.
Li Weidong didn't know what his apprentice was thinking. After checking the car, he pulled over a few oil drums and filled the tank with oil.
Then he put most of the remaining barrels into the car, and finally carried a few oil barrels still in the car as backup.
In this era, there are not as many gas stations as in later generations. If you run out of gas on the road, it will really be a disaster for the heavens and the earth.
After confirming that everything was ready to move and that there were no problems with the truck, Li Weidong set off to load the goods.
It took more than an hour to load the machine into the car.
When he saw the Big Mac occupying three-fourths of the carriage, Li Weidong understood why it was not transported by train.
Loading and unloading cars is so troublesome, let alone trains.
After confirming that the machine had been fixed in the carriage, Li Weidong drove the truck and left the rolling mill.
Not far away, when he passed an alley, he stopped the car, rolled down the glass, lit a cigarette and started smoking.
After waiting for a while, Lao Huang's figure appeared in Li Weidong's sight.
With him were a middle-aged couple dressed in 56-style clothes and three children.
This family of five must be the people Li Weidong wants to send to the Northeast.
But when Li Weidong looked at the middle-aged couple, he always felt that they looked familiar.
According to the rules, Li Weidong is just a driver and will not talk to these people.
Get on the bus now. After arriving in the Northeast, these people will get off directly without any communication in between.
This is to avoid unnecessary surprises.
