Surprisingly, they originally planned to only hire one person, but because Zhao Wei's apprentice performed well, the three people unanimously recommended him to their superiors.
After all, it was a time when people were needed, so when Captain Zhou and his men captured Lin Zhiqing, the result of the discussion came out.
He can be hired temporarily, but his stay or departure can be decided after the one-month probation period.
The apprentice was almost in tears after hearing this. Even if he had to work for a month in vain, he was willing to stay.
His life is no longer that of a gangster in the village, and he finally has a bright future.
It was worth it, all the hardships I had endured following Zhao Wei for the past two months.
Zhao Wei was happy for them.
Two of the five disciples have made great achievements, and the rest will not be too bad either.
Just wait until there is an opportunity and then arrange a way out for them.
Whether you work with Captain Zhou or go to Xiangyang Commune, as long as you are always prepared, there are still many opportunities.
Captain Zhou, on the other hand, was a little surprised and looked at Zhao Wei with a new respect.
He had witnessed the abilities of these five people with his own eyes.
At the beginning, when some villagers ran to Zhao's house to smash, loot and rob, these five people rushed to the front and held off a large group of people until they came to rescue.
However, compared to these five apprentices, it is obviously talents like Zhao Wei that he admires the most.
It takes a very outstanding person to turn decay into magic and train a few ordinary mountain farmers to achieve such remarkable achievements today.
If he could let Zhao Wei work with him, the burden on him would definitely be much lighter.
Look, it’s only been one day and they’ve already caught the person they’ve always been unable to catch.
By the way, it also cleansed the social atmosphere.
He even thought of the previous case of stealing food.
It was so incredible at that time that several trucks of food were almost transferred right under their noses.
It was thanks to this guy's courage and carefulness that they were all recovered.
Now, the verdict has been handed down for those who stole the grain. This is a major economic crime, and they will definitely not be released without being sentenced to ten to eight years in prison.
That night, Captain Zhou warmly entertained the couple in the family compound.
Well, when he learned that they were hiding from the old man at home, he deliberately let them stay overnight in his home.
Because he still has a lot of official duties to attend to, he has to go back to the office to continue working after dinner. He doesn't come back at night anyway, so it would be a waste to leave the house idle. It would be great for the couple to live there.
He didn't have the feudal ideas that would averse a man and a woman to sleeping in the same bed at home.
However, they did not expect that when they were sleeping in the middle of the night, they heard noises in the house.
Someone came in, and the footsteps sounded very light, unlike a man like Captain Zhou, whose rhythm was very steady.
This woke Zhao Wei up.
He has always been a light sleeper and still retains many physiological habits from his previous life.
He jumped off the bed almost as the visitor pushed open the gate.
Yunxiu was exhausted after a whole day of following, and was very depressed at this moment, not knowing anything about what happened to the person next to her.
Although it was quite dark inside the room, Zhao Wei was very familiar with the furniture layout in the room.
He very accurately grabbed a broom at the door, raised it high, and hid beside the door.
The person who sneaked in quickly pushed the door open and turned on the light on the wall.
At the moment when the light suddenly appeared, the broom in Zhao Wei's hand had already smashed down on the opponent's head.
The man immediately held his head and screamed. In the quiet night, it was quite thrilling and alarmed many people in the family compound.
Zhao Wei originally wanted to hit the other party a few more times, but this scream was obviously a woman's.
He had no habit of hitting women. He swung the broom at the woman's head and then pulled it back forcefully.
"Who are you? What do you want to do here? Tell the truth!"
The broom in his hand was pointed at the other person, and he looked quite fierce.
The man took a breath and roared with full force: "This is my home. I am going back to my own home. Why should I explain to you?"
"Where's my son Zhou Shan? Ask him to come out. I have something to ask him!"
Then he searched the room for Captain Zhou, but didn't find him. Instead, he turned on the light and saw Yun Xiulai who was awakened.
This seemed to be a second fright, and she screamed loudly again on the spot.
The sound was so loud that it felt like the roof was about to be blown off by the other party.
This woman's actions made Zhao Wei feel uneasy.
Could it be that he...beat up Captain Zhou’s mother?
What a sin!
If Captain Zhou knew about this, he would probably want to stab him.
He quickly threw away the broom in his hand and rushed over to comfort her.
"Auntie, don't be afraid. We are not bad people. I am Captain Zhou's friend. My name is Zhao Wei and this is my wife Yun Xiu. We are just staying here for one night."
"There must be a misunderstanding between us. Just now... I thought a thief came in, so I attacked him a little harder."
"You are such a generous person, don't argue with me!"
…
In just a short while, the people in the family compound who heard the shouting rushed into the yard and started asking loudly.
"Zhou Shan's mother, what happened? Our house was robbed! Don't be afraid, we are here, no one can do anything to you!"
"Eh? Who are these two? Why are you here? This is not your home..."
"Quick, quick, catch them first, don't let them get away!"
…
Most of the people standing in the family compound at this time are men. They usually have to go to work during the day and are not familiar with Zhao Wei.
If it were those aunts and sisters-in-law who came, they would definitely recognize at a glance that Zhao Wei was the old man's grandson.
These people knew Captain Zhou's mother, so without saying a word, they rolled up their sleeves and came to capture Zhao Si and Yun Xiu.
The couple didn't want to anger Captain Zhou's mother, but they also didn't want to be caught, so they could only ask Zhou Shan's mother for help.
"Aunt, we are really friends of Captain Zhou. We are staying here with his consent. Otherwise, even if we were given a hundred guts, we wouldn't dare to stay here!"
Zhao Wei's words calmed down the furious Captain Zhou's wife.
"While what you say does make sense, you two are not allowed to come into the house again until my son comes back."
Then he grumbled in dissatisfaction: "You can tell at first glance that he's a country bumpkin. He doesn't know any rules. Even if we really go to someone's house as a guest, there's absolutely no such thing as a man and a woman sleeping together. Ugh!"
Zhao Wei felt as if there was something stuck in his throat, as if a boomerang was stabbing him back.
