Chapter 473 The Advance of the Courtyard House



Wang Dabao's words made Yan Bugui blush, and he awkwardly scratched his head: "Dabao, I was just making a hypothetical situation. Fairness and impartiality are still the most important things."

“Da Bao is right. We can’t be thinking about taking shortcuts. Since Da Bao brought this up, it gives our hospital a natural advantage. At the very least, we got the news first and can get the sanitation done first in the limited time.”

Liu Haizhong wanted to criticize Yan Bugui, but then thought better of it and continued, "Once this kind of thing loses its fairness, it becomes meaningless."

Yi Zhonghai nodded and pondered, "We're already planning how to clean up, so we're ahead of the other departments. We can win awards based on our own abilities and stay ahead of them."

Old Zhou pondered for a moment before speaking: "If we want to get first place, I think we should first stop letting people from other departments visit each other's rooms in the next few days, otherwise all the cleaning methods we come up with will be copied by others."

"We need to get everyone involved. At least we need to clean our own doorway, and wipe the windows and doors with glass as well. We can only be responsible for the yard, we can't possibly wipe everyone's windows too."

“When the time comes, each household will receive a share of the reward, so we need to get them to do the work.”

After hearing what Lao Zhou said, everyone nodded in agreement.

Sha Zhu chuckled: "It'll be perfect once our courtyard is all cleaned up and Da Bao's wedding is over, I'll bring my girlfriend home too."

Xu Damao listened and grumbled a couple of times, watching Sha Zhu's smugness. He felt extremely uncomfortable, but he didn't know how to stir things up for Sha Zhu.

Yi Zhonghai watched from the sidelines, his hostility towards Xu Damao not showing even after Xu Damao stepped down, but he was always looking for an opportunity.

Liu Haizhong glanced at Wang Dabao's wrist and realized it was getting late. Otherwise, they could have held a hospital-wide meeting. It seemed they could only wait until tomorrow or notify each household individually.

"On Da Bao's wedding day, each family will bring out their best tables, chairs, and benches. Before that, Lao Yan will write the couplets and the character for 'happiness,' and we'll put them up in advance..."

Liu Haizhong gave instructions one by one, "Everyone think about whether there is any place we have forgotten. If not, we will take care of the sanitation first. The first priority is to have a good environment for Da Bao's wedding, and the second is to compete for first place among more than a dozen courtyards. We can't put the cart before the horse."

After some discussion, everyone dispersed.

However, it seems that Liu Haizhong has once again organized Yan Bugui, Lao Zhou, Yi Zhonghai and others to go to the front yard for a meeting.

Wang Dabao organized this large-scale sanitation inspection with the aim of motivating these people; whether the street office agreed or not was irrelevant.

If you agree, we'll do it together; if you don't agree, the factory can do it on its own.

Once the security department takes over, the family compound just needs to cooperate.

Even without a reward, would the staff and family members in the residential compound dare to disobey the factory's security department?!

After everyone left, Wang Dabao poured the leftovers into the spatial ocean to feed the fish. It was called leftovers, but it was really just scraps. These people rarely had any leftovers, let alone meat scraps.

He ignored the stove and went straight to the space farm to sleep.

At this point, the space farm had become its own little world, and it wouldn't be a problem to bring a group of people here to live.

With the Space Farm, Wang Dabao wouldn't have too much trouble dominating the world even if he wanted to, but it's not the right time yet, he has to wait.

The next day at work, Wang Dabao returned from a meeting at the government building and immediately handed over the task of the joint sanitation inspection to Feng Biao and Wang Tiangao.

Feng Biao carried out Wang Dabao's instructions without any hesitation. He immediately went to contact the street office, and the street office was excited when they heard that the steel rolling mill was going to do an event with them.

Director Wang personally received Feng Biao and was very interested in this large-scale joint investigation.

Hearing that it was Wang Dabao's idea, he praised it highly. The two had met when Wang Dabao first arrived in Beijing, and Director Wang's deep impression of Wang Dabao was also due to Wang Zhen.

Since the subdistrict office has agreed to jointly organize this event, Feng Biao needs to go back to his office to develop a joint plan. He just needs to communicate with the subdistrict office and ask them to notify the various compounds first.

In the afternoon, news of the joint sanitation inspection organized by the sixteen courtyards spread throughout the entire street.

The stewards of each compound took leave or declined to go home and take care of sanitation work.

The Hongxing Courtyard had made preparations in advance. Last night, the group held a meeting and discussed everything thoroughly. Yan Bugui had plenty of time, so after finishing his class, he returned to the courtyard and began to take care of the sanitation work.

In the afternoon, Liu Haizhong, Lao Zhou, Yi Zhonghai and others took leave and left work early to go door-to-door to check.

A general meeting was held in the evening to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the residents of the compound and to ensure that the rewards would be distributed to each household. Everyone was motivated to tidy up.

During this period, Director Wang of the Subdistrict Office also went to the steel rolling mill to discuss matters with Wang Dabao.

Wang Dabao certainly treated this Director Wang with great respect, after all, he had a very close relationship with his uncle, and they almost became his aunt.

Director Wang expressed high praise for the joint activities proposed by Wang Dabao and was willing to contribute a portion of the activity fees as reserve funds for purchasing rewards.

Previously, Wang Dabao's division of labor and management in the family compound had already helped the street office a lot, so Director Wang was just returning the favor.

The neighborhood office certainly doesn't lack funds, since they distribute a lot of work to everyone, such as hiring people to paste matchboxes and hiring temporary workers.

After Director Wang left, Wang Dabao also submitted a report to apply for funding.

The security department definitely can't pay for this, since it was set up in the family compound, and the amount of money isn't much—just for buying small items like rice, flour, cooking oil, and soap.

The factory quickly approved 500 yuan. Wang Dabao originally thought 200 yuan would be good enough, but he didn't expect the factory leaders to be so accommodating. He had to be careful with the money, in case there was another event later, and he couldn't ask the factory for money again.

Three days passed in a flash, and Wang Dabao was extremely busy.

Fortunately, Section Chief Hu, Xiao Zhenguo, Feng Biao, Zheng Jun and others helped with the wedding arrangements. During the meeting, all the leaders also said that they would make room for Wang Dabao to use his car on the day of the wedding.

Xiao Su hasn't been going to work these past few days; she's been accompanying her mother and relatives to buy wedding supplies.

After work that day, Wang Dabao rode his bicycle back to the courtyard house.

From a distance, you can see that the main entrance has been completely renovated, with new polishing and painting, and the exterior walls have been washed with water.

Upon entering the courtyard, wow, even the bricks paving the yard had been washed with water. Old Yan and his wife were busy tidying up the shed at the entrance, while their two children, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang, were also busy.

Old Zhou's family was also busy; his son and daughter-in-law were wiping the windows and tidying up the windowsill.

Everyone's busier than during the Chinese New Year; they're really going all out to get the rewards.

Although life was tough for everyone, it was still relatively well-off compared to the countryside. However, the whole family mobilized for that bar of soap.
