Chapter 54: Close the Door, Release Jia Zhangshi

He Yuzhu had just walked out of the canteen when he suddenly realized that it was working hours. Was he being too ostentatious by skipping work so arrogantly?

"Liu Lan, is there any original bone soup left? Has it all been mixed with water?" He Yuzhu quickly returned to the back kitchen and shouted loudly.

"There are still two pots of original soup that haven't been mixed with water," Liu Lan said.

"Leave one pot for me, I'll send it to the Security Section," He Yuzhu said, then carried a steaming pot of original soup to the Security Section.

The Security Section had long heard that they were going to drink big bone soup today and were preparing to take turns going to the canteen to drink it. They didn't expect He Yuzhu to bring a pot of soup.

"Brothers, you've hit the jackpot. This is original soup, no water added. The ones in the canteen are all mixed with water. Hurry up and taste it, and after you taste it, let the other brothers taste it too," He Yuzhu said and lifted the pot lid.

The fragrance of the big bone soup rushed toward them.

"Master He, you don't visit without a reason. Tell me, what's the matter?" Guard Lao Qin asked.

"Nothing much, just going out for a trip and coming back in a while. I've already greeted our Director Niu. I just thought, it's working hours, and if I come and go as I please, it might have a bad influence if it gets out," He Yuzhu said with a smile, and started distributing cigarettes.

"Master He, since you've already greeted Director Niu, what else is there to say? Hurry up and go do your business, and don't delay the canteen's affairs. We still want to eat the big pot rice you stir-fry at noon," Lao Qin said with a smile.

"No problem, I'll come back after I finish my business. It won't delay the stir-frying. At noon, I'll greet Ma Hua at that window in advance," He Yuzhu said.

"Got it~" Lao Qin waved his hand and said.

"Flowers need green leaves to look good, and people need others to lift them up." If you show goodwill to others, provided you don't violate principles or infringe on interests, others will naturally show goodwill to you.

Who knows which cloud will rain? Maybe one day you'll have to beg the other party.

He Yuzhu left the Rolling Mill and headed straight to the police station, finding Station Chief Zhang.

"Station Chief Zhang, I think Jia Zhangshi has learned enough of a lesson. It's time to let her out and let her continue sweeping the streets," He Yuzhu said unhurriedly, and then a pack of Great Front Gate cigarettes appeared on Station Chief Zhang's desk without a trace.

This pack of Great Front Gate was naturally "taken" from the Black Market. Anyway, there were no marks on it, so He Yuzhu wasn't afraid of the other party tracing it back to him through a pack of cigarettes.

Station Chief Zhang glanced at He Yuzhu, covered the cigarettes with the newspaper in his hand, and said: "You have to go to the Street Office for this matter. It was Director Wang from the Street Office who called me."

"Station Chief Zhang, don't worry, I'll go to the Street Office right now. I won't make things difficult for you," He Yuzhu said.

"That's fine, I'll wait for the Street Office's call. As long as the Street Office calls, I'll release her," Station Chief Zhang said.

"Don't! Wait for my call. I mean, I'll go find Director Wang from the Street Office first. When Director Wang calls you, don't release her yet. Keep Jia Zhangshi detained, and wait until I call you before you release her, okay?" He Yuzhu said with a grin.

He Yuzhu had to control the timing. He couldn't release Jia Zhangshi too early, nor could he release her too late; he had to let Jia Zhangshi be caught red-handed.

This was He Yuzhu's method of revenge against Qin Mu: Close the door, release Jia Zhangshi!

It wasn't enough to just conduct psychological attacks on Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai and make them anxious; he also had to send his own general, Jia Zhangshi, to conduct physical attacks.

"No problem." Station Chief Zhang naturally didn't care; there was no difference between releasing her a little earlier or a little later.

However, He Yuzhu's behavior aroused Station Chief Zhang's curiosity. Station Chief Zhang wanted to see what He Yuzhu was going to do next. "I want to see Jia Zhangshi first," He Yuzhu said.

Station Chief Zhang immediately sent someone to take He Yuzhu to see Jia Zhangshi.

"Shazhu, you dead end, you still dare to come..." As soon as Jia Zhangshi saw He Yuzhu, she couldn't help but curse loudly.

The prison guard struck Jia Zhangshi twice with a stick, and Jia Zhangshi immediately became obedient.

"I'm here to tell you two things. First, Jia Dongxu's pension has been taken back to Qin Family Village by Qin Huairu's father, and not a single cent was left for you."

"The second thing is, Qin Huairu's mother is taking care of Bang Geng at your house. Unfortunately, your savings from all these years were found by Qin Huairu's mother. Qin Huairu's mother asked me to make a call to Qin Family Village to let Qin Huairu's father come to the Siheyuan and take your hidden money back to Qin Family Village."

"I saw the first thing, and I guessed the second thing. Besides, I've already made the call. I estimate Qin Huairu's father will arrive at the Siheyuan around three or four in the afternoon," He Yuzhu finished speaking quickly, then turned and ran.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! That's my money! Why should that bitch Qin Xianglian take my money? I want to kill her! I want to kill her! Let me out! Let me out! Shazhu, you come back..." Jia Zhangshi roared incoherently like a crazy beast.

He Yuzhu didn't come back, and the prison guard didn't release Jia Zhangshi, but gave her two more strikes with the stick.

The prison guard originally thought that after two strikes, Jia Zhangshi would be obedient. He didn't expect Jia Zhangshi to go berserk, slamming into the iron bars like a wild beast, trying to rush out and grab her money back.

Money was life to Jia Zhangshi.

If two strikes weren't enough, then three; if three weren't enough, then ten. The prison guard hadn't even struck ten times before Jia Zhangshi became obedient.

It wasn't that Jia Zhangshi was beaten into submission. To Jia Zhangshi, being beaten wasn't terrible; what was terrible was that her money had been stolen.

The reason Jia Zhangshi became obedient was that He Yuzhu turned back and said one sentence: "I'm going to the Street Office to get you released."

Only then did Jia Zhangshi become obedient.

He Yuzhu left the police station and headed straight to the Street Office. Approaching the Street Office, He Yuzhu flipped his hand and took out twenty eggs from the Consciousness Space.

At this time, eggs were absolute hard currency. In some places, eggs could even be used to pay tuition or even as money.

"Zhuzi, what are you doing? You're making me commit a mistake," Director Wang said with a feigned serious look as soon as she saw He Yuzhu arrive, though the smile on her face couldn't be suppressed no matter how she tried.

"Sigh, even a landlord's family has no surplus grain. Director Wang is a section-level cadre, how can she be so excited when seeing these few things? It seems I overestimated the treatment and benefits of grassroots staff," He Yuzhu thought to himself.

"Sigh, I'm not giving a gift to Director Wang of the Street Office; I'm just visiting Auntie Wang here. This is normal human interaction. What mistake am I committing? If this counts as a mistake, then everyone should stop visiting relatives," He Yuzhu said, and then stuffed the things into Director Wang's hands.

"Zhuzi, look at what you're saying. If you were this good at talking, you wouldn't be single until now. Tell me, what do you want with Auntie Wang?" Director Wang took the things with a "swish," quickly put them into her desk, and then said with a smile.

"Auntie Wang, I want to ask you to call the police station and release Jia Zhangshi so she can continue sweeping the streets," He Yuzhu said.
