Zhengyang Gate

Cao Weiguo stood at the entrance of the alley with the Industrial Correction Team, and Li Dong ran over hurriedly: "Leader! We can start!"

"Then start! Go!"

Cao Weiguo raised his right hand and waved, and the team members who were ready to go rushed into the Sihe Academy quickly.

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

"Don't move!"

"Don't move!"

"What are you doing?"

"Don't move!"

"Don't move! We won't move!"

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the Sihe Academy. Old Master Guan, who was lying on a rattan chair basking in the sun, was shocked, and Old Master Guan's son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter were even more frightened and curled up into a ball.

Li Dong walked to Old Master Guan with a sneer: "Old Master Guan, I've heard of your great name for a long time. Seeing you today, you really have a lot of style. I heard you have a title called 'Nine Gate Commander'? I want to ask you, the Great Qing is gone, which nine gates are you managing, old man?"

Looking at the sarcastic Li Dong and those aggressive Industrial Correction Team members, Old Master Guan's heart sank, but he stood up calmly: "Little comrade, 'Nine Gate Commander' is just a joke the neighbors make with me. I am just an ordinary common person."

Li Dong pointed at the house and sneered: "You are not a common person, old man. Can a common person have so many antiques and cultural relics at home?"

Old Master Guan's heart skipped a beat, knowing that trouble had come to his door.

However, he was an old hand in the world, and even when disaster was imminent, he remained calm: "Little comrade, these things of mine are all items left by my ancestors. I know these things are feudal dregs, and I have long wanted to throw them away or smash them, but every time I think they are thoughts left by my ancestors, I can't bear to do it. Now it's good, you have come, just in time to help this old man with a favor. Please help you throw away these feudal dregs, so that I can completely break with the old society!"

"Clap, clap, clap! Good! Old Master Guan has good awareness! Since you said so, we will help you with this favor! Comrades! Help the old master clear out the feudal dregs!"

Li Dong smiled and clapped, and with a shout, the team members rushed into the house like wolves and tigers. As long as they could see objects, whether they were bottles and jars or tables and chairs, they were all moved away.

Old Master Guan's expression was indifferent, surprisingly calm.

Old Master Guan's son and daughter-in-law hid at the foot of the wall, shivering.

"What are you doing! This is my family's stuff! Put it down!"

Guan Xiaoguan, who was still in elementary school, rushed out and grabbed a grand master chair and wouldn't let go.

Old Master Guan walked over and pulled Guan Xiaoguan away: "Xiaoguan, let go!"

Guan Xiaoguan said angrily: "Grandpa! This is our family's stuff."

Old Master Guan: "These things are all old things and are broken. They are in the way at home. These comrades are helping our family clean up garbage. Don't disturb the comrades, go and stay with your parents."

"Xiaoguan, come here!"

Old Master Guan's daughter-in-law called Guan Xiaoguan to her side and grabbed Guan Xiaoguan's arm and wouldn't let go: "Your courage is too big, don't move or talk nonsense anymore."

One by one, old objects were moved out of the Sihe Academy and piled onto flatbed tricycles. Such movement attracted neighbors to run out to watch.

Han Chunming asked in surprise: "Mom! What's going on? Why are these people moving Old Master Guan's things away!"

Han's mother warned in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, go back to the room."

Su's mother shook her head: "I have long said that those old objects in Old Master Guan's house are the root of disaster and cannot be kept. Something will happen sooner or later."

Cao Weiguo stood beside the flatbed truck, looking at those bottles and jars with bright eyes: "Handle with care, fill it up and cover it with a tarpaulin."

Liu Limin nodded: "I know, Master."

Cao Weiguo said to Ma Liang: "You go and call Old Master Guan over."

"I'm going now."

Ma Liang responded and turned around and walked quickly into the Sihe Academy.

After a while, Old Master Guan came to Cao Weiguo's side.

Cao Weiguo played with a purple clay teapot: "Old Master Guan, I know your house has a unique world. Given your old age, I will save you some face. Tonight I will send someone to take away and destroy the things you have hidden. Of course, you can also refuse my kindness."

Hearing these words, Old Master Guan's heart rose to his throat, and he subconsciously clenched his fists, feeling both panic and anger in his heart.

After a few breaths, Old Master Guan pulled his face and said with a flat expression: "Man is the knife and I am the fish, how dare I refuse your kindness."

Cao Weiguo smiled: "As expected of the Nine Gate Commander, you understand the big picture and have awareness. Thank you, old comrade, for supporting our work so much."

Old Master Guan pulled his face: "Eliminating feudal dregs is what I should do. I also want to thank you for saving me some face. Dare I ask what your name is, comrade? I will come to thank you in the future."

Cao Weiguo smiled: "Old Master Guan is too polite. My name is Cao Weiguo, and I am currently the Deputy Director of the Red Star Rolling Steel Factory Committee. There is no need for thanks, this is just my duty. I hope you don't resent me."

Ever since he accidentally heard the great name of the Nine Gate Commander, Cao Weiguo had been thinking about it.

The antiques and cultural relics collected by Old Master Guan were all rare treasures.

With fat meat at his mouth, how could he not eat it?

As for whether this matter is moral or not?

Who cares?

How much is morality worth per jin?

He not only wants to eat the fat meat of the Nine Gate Commander, but another collection tycoon, Broken Hou, should not think about escaping either.

After working for more than half an hour, Old Master Guan's house was already empty, leaving only four walls and a dirt bed.

Cao Weiguo turned his head and instructed Ma Liang: "Put the things in the warehouse, hang a lock, and no one is allowed to enter without my permission."

Ma Liang said solemnly: "Yes!"

Cao Weiguo turned his head and said to Li Dong: "Next target, run forward!"

"Yes!"

"Follow me!"

Li Dong greeted the team members under his hand and ran to Broken Hou's residence.

Seeing Cao Weiguo and his party leave, Old Master Guan's face became extremely gloomy.

The daughter-in-law rushed to Old Master Guan and complained: "Dad! I have long said that these things are a disaster. I asked you to hide the things well, but you just wouldn't listen. Now it's good, people have come to raid the house. Thanks to them not arresting anyone, otherwise, tell me what our family should do."

Old Master Guan turned his head to look at his daughter-in-law: "Shut your mouth, when is it your turn to talk about this family!"

He had an old friendship with the director of the Yan Jiefang Office, but until these people broke into his house, he hadn't received any news, which showed that this matter was not that simple.

With an old face, Old Master Guan walked out of the house and found the director of the Yan Jiefang Office.

The director of the Yan Jiefang Office sighed: "Old Guan, I can only say one thing, cooperate well with the work."

With these words, Old Master Guan's heart turned cold.

Before he returned home, the news that Broken Hou's house had been emptied also spread.

This made his heart even heavier.

That night, a small jeep drove to the entrance of the Sihe Academy.

Cao Weiguo took Li Dong and Liu Limin and walked into the Guan family swaggeringly.

After a while, the jeep was full.

Watching the treasures he cherished being taken away, the famous Nine Gate Commander didn't even dare to fart.

The general trend is irreversible!
