Siheyuan: Stab at Louzi at the beginning

Chapter 904: Who is it targeting?
Old Jintou really wanted to hit Xu Damao twice with his cane.

"Don't you understand yet? Since you came to Forty-Nine City, when have you ever messed with ordinary people?"

"This trend, that trend, this evil trend, that evil spirit, opposing this and repairing that, every now and then, three against five, buying off cooperation, look at these things, who are they targeting?"

"They are leaders, businessmen, and scholars. These things have nothing to do with ordinary people. Who do you think is being targeted by such a big fuss this time?"

There is a saying that goes, everything has clues and traces, causes and omens, it just depends on whether you can discover them.

Lao Jin summed up the rules with his unique vision.

Xu Damao didn't take it seriously. "Hasn't there been some minor friction with Ah San recently? The radio and newspapers have been talking about it every day. Some martial law is a normal phenomenon. Today's newspaper also said that they have been thinking for ten days and ten nights and still can't figure out why Ah San is so bold."

"It was also analyzed that the top leader of Ah San just took office this year and couldn't wait to prove himself."

If you believe everything in the newspapers, especially the second-rate newspapers, you will lose.

You must learn to combine facts from all aspects and speculate on what happened.

We should look at it dialectically.

"Get lost, be careful these days. Otherwise, you can send Jinxiu and Jinzhi to Hong Kong first, and the marriage registration can wait. If something happens to you, it won't affect their marriage."

"Pfft, pfft, you're still my father? What are you talking about?"

"How can one curse his own son-in-law?"

Xu Damao nodded repeatedly as he listened to Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi's words.

"Get lost now. I don't want to see you these two days. See for yourself what's happening in Sijiu City right now."

Xu Damao was pushed out of the house by Old Jintou using a walking stick.

Xu Damao did not go back to Sijiu City directly, but stood in the alley and took a look. He indeed saw the guard standing at the entrance of the alley.

Why is there no news at all?
At this moment, Xu Damao still felt that this was just normal defense, because the Asan had suffered a loss, what if he used some despicable means? There was no problem in defending the city.

Your own safety is more important than anything else.

Now that he was here, Xu Damao was not in a hurry to return to the courtyard, but went to see Liu Lan on the way and chatted with her for a while.

It was not until the sun set that he came out of Liu Lan's house feeling refreshed.

At this time, all the employees had gone off work, but the guards standing guard at the entrance of the alley were still there.

It looks like they are on duty 24 hours a day.

When Xu Damao drove out, no one stopped him at all.

No one is stopping people from coming in or leaving, just standing at the intersection as a decoration?
Xu Damao couldn't figure it out, so he deliberately slowed down on the way back, and he actually saw guards at many intersections.

Logically speaking, as long as there is a little disturbance in the city, the streets and neighborhood committees should be the first to mobilize, but the current situation is completely different.

Such a big action, but there was not a single rumor.

Even he didn't know what was going on.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. When he returned to the courtyard, Xu Damao first called Tao Zhuan's office, but no one answered the phone because it was already time to get off work.

Another call came to Mr. Qian's class teacher, and this time the call was answered easily.

In this apparently busiest office, it is common to work until 10pm every day.

"Director Qian, it's me, Xu Damao." "Xu Damao? You actually took the initiative to call me one day. If you quit your job, I'm afraid the whole city won't be able to accommodate you."

"Director Qian, please don't say such things again. Where else can I go except Sijiu City?"

There was a laugh from the other end of the phone: "How would I know where you're going? And you can't report to me."

Xu Damao always felt that this person was hinting at something to him.

After a few pleasantries, Xu Damao finally asked about the intersection guards.

"What are you talking about? I just happened to ask about it today. They said it was a play drill, just in case. They will be withdrawn in a few days. Everyone can just act normally and pretend that the guards on duty are not there."

"Oh, it's a drill."

"You can understand that."

After getting the answer he wanted, Xu Damao felt relieved.

The situation over there is still in a stalemate, and Sijiu City should not take any other actions except for guarding.

This should be a protection operation in the name of exercise.

Li Tianjiao just walked up to Xu Damao and smelled the scent on Xu Damao: "You smell like a woman. Next time you go out to hang out with women, remember to take a shower and change clothes when you come back."

Xu Damao has become accustomed to some of the things Li Tianjiao often says, such as this sentence. Not only does she not hate it, she actually likes it a little.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

Although he agreed verbally, Xu Damao was actually already thinking about how to hint to Ding Qiunan to get her to stay and chat tonight.

"How's it going? How do you feel about being sisters? When will you bring her home so I can see her? It's not a good idea to keep her hidden outside all the time."

Xu Damao has become immune to such words. When Li Tianjiao is alone at home, he always likes to say such words to tease him.

"What's going on with those guards at the intersection outside? What's the new trend in Sijiu City recently?"

"I don't know. I don't have any information. Didn't you just ask Director Qian from the Planning Office? Didn't he say it was just a drill?"

Xu Damao rubbed his head and threw away all the messy thoughts in his mind.

"Well, today Lao Jin insisted that I send the two sisters to Hong Kong. Lao Jin is the father of the two sisters."

"Send it to me. It's not good to keep having an improper relationship. It's normal for your father-in-law to be anxious for you to register for marriage."

"He is not anxious for us to get married now. Instead, he hopes that we will not get married. He just wants our two daughters to go to Hong Kong. He also said seriously that the city is not peaceful recently."

Li Tianjiao also didn't believe it.

Her father was in military uniform, but she didn't hear anything about it. So what could a retired old man at home know?
Xu Damao only thought that one aspect of what Lao Jin said made sense, that is, these rectification movements were never targeted at ordinary people, but at intellectuals, leading cadres, and businessmen, all of whom were the elite.

Ordinary people just need to have enough food to eat and they don’t have any other demands.

The ordinary people in this land are the best ordinary people. As long as they have food to eat, land to farm, jobs to work and are not starving to death, they are very satisfied and will never cause trouble.

Those who cause trouble are the elites in society.

It doesn't necessarily mean that they are causing trouble, but having too many ideas is wrong.

"It's just the movement of my upper lip and lower lip. Maybe it's just for the sake of face. Men should save face."
