Chapter 52 Do You Know the Rules? Director Li withdrew his gaze from the window, sat back behind his desk, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water: "Peihang, what happened?" Generally, Li Peihang would not come directly to his office unless it was a very important situation. Li Peihang said seriously: "Third Uncle..." After entering the house, Li Peihang immediately recounted the situation. Li Weibing listened without much reaction, as if what was being said had nothing to do with him. After Li Peihang finished speaking, he said indifferently: "Take care of this matter and don't cause me any trouble." Li Peihang nodded: "I understand, don't worry, I will take care of it." Li Weibing said "hmm", then asked, "By the way, you just said that..." Li Peihang quickly replied, "It's Ning Weidong, the younger brother of Ning Weiguo from the Machinery Bureau."
"Ning Weidong~" Li Weibing repeated: "What do you think of this person?" Li Peihang heard the hidden meaning and asked in surprise: "You want to use him?" Li Weibing said: "This time, the Wang family has put a lot of thought into Ning Weiguo's position. It seems that they really want to train him. After all, he is the son-in-law of the old company commander, and you are classmates." Li Peihang hesitated for a moment and did not reply immediately. Li Weibing noticed his hesitation: "Hmm? You have concerns." Li Peihang chose his words carefully: "Uncle San, this~ Ning Weidong is different from his brother. He has never been sociable in the Security Department. But he took the initiative to look for me these few days, and it doesn't match the rumors. I'm not sure." Li Weibing said unconcernedly, "If you are not sure, just test it out. You need to be more patient with young comrades." "I see." Li Peihang responded, "Uncle San, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Li Weibing waved his hands and waited for Li Peihang to close the door and go out. Then he let out a long sigh, turned to the window and continued to look down. At this time, the factory protection team that was on drill had already left, and there was no one under the factory office building. Li Weibing stood there for a long while, muttering: "This is a troubled time~" …… On the other side, Li Peihang returned to the office, thinking about what Li Weibing had just said. Using Ning Weidong actually has nothing to do with Ning Weidong himself. What’s important is that he is Ning Weiguo’s younger brother, and Ning Weiguo is the old company commander’s son-in-law. Li Peihang understood his third uncle's idea, which was to lean on the Wang family through Ning Weiguo. Even though Li Weibing calls him the old company commander, that was thirty years ago. Before that they were not on the same line. However, facing Wang Guoqiang who was parachuted in, Li Weibing had to seek stronger support from outside. Ning Weidong is a stone. Throw a stone to test the water and see what the other side reacts.
But then again, Ning Weidong is also a stone. If he is just a piece of rotten wood, there will be nothing we can do. So we have to "test it out" first, not to see whether Ning Weidong has the ability or how strong his ability is. Just observe to see if he has a clear mind, understands the rules, and if so, how much he understands. Thinking of this, Li Peihang reached out and picked up the phone on the table: "Hello, this is Li Peihang... Come to my office." About five minutes after I hung up the phone, I heard the sound of jogging footsteps coming from the corridor. Li Peihang curled up the corner of his mouth into a smile. Although he knew that the other party's character was not very good, just this attitude made people feel comfortable. As soon as I received a phone call, I ran over here immediately. Hearing the knock on the door, Li Peihang said "Come in". The door opened, and a sturdy young man with a 3:7 haircut and more than meters tall came in, controlling his rapid breathing and calling out "Leader". The person who came was Wang Zipeng, who had fought with Zhou Kun yesterday and lived in the backyard. Fortunately, Zhou Kun knew his limits yesterday and didn't punch him in the face, otherwise he would definitely not be able to face anyone today. Li Peihang smiled and said "Sit down", but he did not come out from behind the desk like he did when he received Ning Weidong just now. Wang Zipeng is not qualified yet. "Hey~" Wang Zipeng sat on the chair closest to the desk, with his back straight and only half of his buttocks sitting: "Leader, what instructions do you want me to have?" Li Peihang asked: "Ning Weidong from Ximen, is he living in the same courtyard with you?" Wang Zipeng was stunned. He didn't expect Li Peihang to call him here in a hurry to ask about Ning Weidong. But he didn't have time to think about it and nodded quickly, "We are from the same courtyard." Li Peihang didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "Find an opportunity to check this person out for me..." When Wang Zipeng heard this, he immediately revealed his impression of Ning Weidong. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. If he wanted to hear this, Li Peihang wouldn't have called him here specially. Since he was called here and asked to 'replace' himself, it was not aimless. One of Wang Zipeng's great qualities is that he never acts smart in front of his leaders. This was the sentence his father emphasized to him on his first day at work. Wang Zipeng said: "Don't worry, I will arrange it right away." …… At this time, Ning Weidong had already returned to the west gate guard room. As soon as he entered the door, Wang Yong half-jokingly said: "If you don't come back, I'll go over to see if you've fallen into the pit." Ning Weidong laughed. It was not difficult to guess from Wang Yong's state that Xu Jinshan was not there. He stretched his neck to take a look inside: "Is the squad leader out?" Wang Yong responded, and the two of them didn't say much, just sat down and killed time.
The day passed in the blink of an eye. It’s almost four o’clock in the afternoon and it’s time to hand over the shift. Ning Weidong was just planning what vegetables to buy at the market after get off work when Wang Zipeng came. He opened the door curtain and came in, as if he had returned to his own home, and asked casually, "Where's Lao Xu?" Wang Yong raised his head and immediately said with a smile, "Hey, Secretary Wang, do you have something to talk to our Brother Xu about?" Wang Zipeng waved his hand to indicate that nothing was wrong. He took out cigarettes from his coat pocket and passed them to Ning Weidong and Wang Yong. He sat down on the chair beside him and said with a smile, "By the way, Weidong, I just found out yesterday that Zhou Kun's grandson bared his teeth at you that day, but you made him obedient in an instant?" He was beaming with joy as he spoke, as if he had defeated Zhou Kun. Although Wang Zipeng called Xu Jinshan's name when he came in, he knew Xu Jinshan was not there, but he did not leave. Instead, he sat down and changed the topic to Ning Weidong, which seemed a bit deliberate. Logically, the original owner and Wang Zipeng had no friendship. Although they lived in the same courtyard, one lived in the backyard and the other in the cross-yard, so they did not have much contact. Besides, the original owner had a good relationship with Zhou Kun, so naturally he and Wang Zipeng would not be on the same page. Could it be that because of the conflict with Zhou Kun the day before yesterday, he felt that the enemy of his enemy is his friend? Ning Weidong thought to himself, wondering what Wang Zipeng was up to. He was just humming and hawing and pretending to be nice. After a while, Wang Zipeng looked at his watch and said, "Weidong, you guys should hand over at four o'clock... I'm leaving a little earlier today, so let's go together. Tonight, I'll treat you. Let's go to a restaurant for a drink." (End of this chapter)
