Chapter 3 Entering the Courtyard for the First Time
"Director Li, I have an unkind request for a residence."
"Comrade Lin Chen, what do you want? Tell me."
When the three leaders heard that Lin Chen still had requests, they couldn't help but frown.
Because Lin Chen was just a clerk after all, they just arranged a two-bedroom house for him out of consideration for his brother's unit.
It stands to reason that this standard of hospitality is already an exception.
But I didn't expect that the other party would actually make a request.
"When I was in the south, I was envious of the courtyard houses in the capital. Thinking that I could come to the capital to study this time, I wanted to live there, even in a temporary house in the courtyard."
The three leaders did not expect Lin Chen to make such a request.
"It's a courtyard house. The bungalows are not as comfortable as the reception buildings. They are easy to get damp and there are more mosquitoes in the summer." Director Yang explained earnestly.
"Director Yang is fine. It's the same in the south. I'm used to it. Besides, I'm afraid of heights. If I live in a building, I can't get used to it."
Director Yang thought that since the special commissioner had made such a request and it was not too excessive, he should logically satisfy it.
"It seems that there is still an empty room in He Yuzhu's courtyard, but it has been unoccupied for a long time. It probably needs to be tidied up. I will ask some employees from the factory to help you clean it up tomorrow. Comrade Lin Chen, what are you doing today?
Just stay at the reception office for one night first."
"Thank you very much, Director Yang."
Lin Chen was very excited when he heard that there was still an empty room in He Yuzhu's courtyard.
I didn't expect that I would actually live in that courtyard full of animals.
Now I can use the system to transform them.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the last dish was served on the table.
"The last dish is chicken stewed with mushrooms." Ma Hua came up carrying a casserole.
When Lin Chen heard the name of this dish, his nerves tensed up.
He has watched the TV series dozens of times, and he can remember all the details in it.
The first scene at the beginning of the TV series is Director Yang’s treat.
The last dish was chicken stewed with mushrooms.
Could it be that the person that Director Yang was treating to dinner at that time was the Southern Commissioner?
Did you get into the plot of the TV series so quickly?
Are you about to enter the plot of a stickman stealing a chicken?
Lin Chen originally had doubts, but the next second Lin Chen confirmed that he had really entered the plot of the TV series.
Xu Damao just said he wanted to go to the toilet, but now he came back with a lot of flour on his clothes.
This guy was obviously hit with a rolling pin by He Yuzhu.
"Brother Damao, what's going on with your clothes?"
"Don't mention it. Didn't I go to the back kitchen to urge us on the staple food? But as soon as I entered the back kitchen, He Yuzhu strangled me with a rolling pin."
Xu Damao seized the opportunity and naturally wanted to sue He Yuzhu.
Naturally, he would not explain to He Yuzhu that he was originally going to strangle him, but he just happened to go in.
"Okay, okay, let's talk about your grudges with He Yuzhu in private. How can you let the special commissioner from the south laugh at it?"
Director Yang quickly stopped him.
"Director Yang, what you are saying is, Comrade Lin, don't be offended, we are also workers, we are just joking."
Xu Damao was scolded by Director Yang and realized that he had spoken in the wrong context.
After all, there are still special correspondents from the south here, and Director Yang is definitely willing to show the good side of the factory.
Obviously I can't talk about the disunity among my co-workers at this time.
But Lin Chen didn't care about this, because as long as he entered the plot line, it would be convenient for him to play.
Knowing where the story is going is his natural advantage.
[The fair system binds the task, take photos of evidence of Banggeng stealing chickens, and expose his crimes on appropriate occasions. The task is completed, and the reward is 100 yuan in cash.]
[Mission prop camera, the prop has been placed in the host’s suitcase. 】
Lin Chen's suitcase was still in the trunk of the car at this time.
After the banquet was over, Director Li asked Xu Damao to help Lin Chen carry his luggage to the reception office.
After the two took their luggage from the car, Lin Chen realized that his suitcase was indeed heavier than when he arrived.
After all, cameras at that time were not as thin and light as today’s digital cameras.
After putting away the luggage, Lin Chen opened his suitcase after Xu Damao left.
There is a high-end SLR camera QT inside.
Although the country of Little Japan is a bit hateful, it has always been at the forefront of the world in some fields.
Many Chinese people think that SLR cameras are a product of recent years. In fact, our country already had SLR cameras in the 1950s.
Although the camera in Lin Chen's hand is not too advanced, it also has the function of micro-focus shooting, so it is possible to take clear photos.
Although this camera is not a digital camera, the small lens on it can still review photos.
The most important thing is that Lin Chen also has this level of identity as a southern correspondent.
As a special commissioner, I came to the capital for inspection and study.
Is it too much to bring a camera?
Is it too much to take random photos?
Is it too much to take a picture of Banggeng stealing a chicken by the way?
Everything seems too reasonable.
I am a person who just came from the south to study, so I was very curious when I saw the courtyard houses in the capital, and then I took a few photos.
After Lin Chen thought everything over, he took the camera and walked towards the courtyard.
After all, the steel rolling mill was not far from the Siheyuan, and Lin Chen didn't have it either, so he walked over as long as it took.
The courtyard of the Siheyuan is divided into four courtyards: the front courtyard, the middle courtyard, the main courtyard, and the backyard.
At the noon banquet, Director Li said that the room arranged for Lin Chen was in the courtyard opposite Yanbu Gui's house, which was the middle courtyard of the courtyard.
Xu Damao's family is in the backyard of the courtyard house, in the same courtyard as the deaf old lady.
Lin Chen entered the courtyard and was walking in when he was stopped by an old woman.
"What kind of people are you wandering around here with a camera on your back?"
The speaker was none other than Qin Huairu's evil mother-in-law, Jia Zhang, who scolded Qin Huairu all day long.
Lin Chen thought that this person was probably the target of fair and systematic punishment in the future.
But now my primary goal is to punish the chicken thieves.
After all, he had done a lot of petty theft before, and arresting him this time would bring an end to his theft career.
"Mother-in-law, I am a special commissioner sent by the Southern Steel Rolling Mill to study at the Red Star Rolling Mill. Director Li of the Red Star Rolling Mill said he would arrange for me to live in this courtyard. Here is my ID. Mother-in-law, please take a look."
As Lin Chen spoke, he took out his ID and showed it to Jia Zhang.
