Chapter 221: Must Conquer People with Virtue



After a long stalemate, Tu Hongbing finally swallowed his anger and pushed the cart away, causing sighs from the surrounding neighbors.

Tu Hongbing was very depressed. He didn't know why the new director asked him to do this thankless task. What use would it be other than letting everyone see that Chai was too arrogant?

Even the local police station has trouble handling anything involving this house.

Zhang Hongcheng was not present at the scene. He was chatting with Director Qian of the street.

Both of them had toilet paper rolls stuffed in their noses and were squatting on the side of the road watching a group of plumbers repairing the sewage pipe.

One of them was wearing half-worn blue cloth clothes, and the other was wearing almost new army green clothes. They squatted side by side not far from the sewage outlet, like an ordinary pair of farmers in the countryside.

The main reason why Director Qian stayed here was because this section of the road was too narrow. The construction team had already occupied half of the road surface, and the new pipeline to be laid occupied the remaining half of the road surface.

He is responsible for resolving complaints from passers-by and preventing naughty children from playing with some pipe interface parts.

After spending a few days together, Director Qian also felt that Section Chief Zhang was a kind person.

The guesthouse tried to move things upstairs several times, but was humiliated by the Chai family every time. However, Section Chief Zhang remained good-tempered.

Even though Director Qian felt bad and wanted to help, he was persuaded by Section Chief Zhang, who kept saying things like "win people over with virtue."

Of course, he didn't know that the second floor of the Minjian building was now used as a guesthouse.

"That fella!"

Seeing that the sewage pipe repair progress was good, although the smell of the on-site environment was not very pleasant, Director Qian was in a good mood.

So he cursed the Chai family a few more times.

In Director Qian's opinion, it would be great if there were no Chai family members on his street. It would be enough to give him the kind of relief that could make him die in peace.

"Xiao Zhang, don't be fooled by his fierce look. This family is actually very cunning."

Director Qian lowered his voice.

"To be honest, we've been wanting to take care of their family for a while now. Unfortunately, apart from their bad and stupid son, the couple's bullying is always on point."

Zhang Hongcheng waved his hand indifferently.

"No rush, it's only June. Anyway, our comrades from the Corps are used to staying at the Heilongjiang Provincial Guesthouse when they come here on business trips."

"My current results are good enough for me to report back."

Director Qian thought about it and realized that it was true.

Director Qian smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I still have to thank you Corps."

"The rent you gave us just enough money to fund the street's financial statements, which allowed us to properly repair the sewer pipe. We're still waiting for the plan from above to be released, but who knows how long it will take?"

He pointed to the straw paper in their noses.

"This smells amazing, doesn't it?"

"But if you pass by here in July or August when it's the hottest, you'll know what a real stench is."

There is a public toilet with mottled walls nearby, which is a bigger concern for Director Qian than the Chai family.

The sewage pipe in this area is blocked mainly because of this public toilet.

Because the street has no money, the public toilet and this section of sewage pipe have been out of service for more than two years.

"This public toilet is mainly used by the office on our street. In the past, we had to wait until we could go home to relieve ourselves. Now, we can finally get some relief..."
