Siheyuan: I just came across and wanted to chase me away

Chapter 781 Zhang Ying

The sun shines through the window into the slightly empty office of Director Yang of the steel mill. At this time, Director Yang's power in the steel mill has been largely stripped away. He can only sit in the office, doing nothing every day, feeling helpless and unwilling.

Gu Nan walked into the office with steady steps. He saw Director Yang sitting at his desk with a sad face. He said with a concerned smile, "Director, why do you look unhappy?"

Director Yang looked up and saw that it was Gu Nan. He forced a smile and said, "How could you not understand my situation? Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Gu Nan leaned closer, a confident look on his face, and said softly: "Director, the plan we planned before has officially started. As long as everything goes well this time, after it succeeds, Deputy Director Li will have no real power in his hands, and he won't be able to jump around for much longer."

When Director Yang heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a relieved smile: "Okay, then I'll trust you this time. When the time comes, let's go and see the excitement and see how embarrassed Deputy Director Li is."

In fact, Director Yang has connections with his superiors. However, due to the complicated situation, he has concerns and has not asked his superiors to intervene directly. He knows that in this ever-changing situation, the slightest mistake may lead to a complete failure.

Afterwards, Director Yang and Gu Nan had an in-depth conversation about the details of the plan. They analyzed and discussed various possible situations. After Gu Nan left, Director Yang immediately picked up the phone and dialed his superior's number. After the call was connected, he reported the current situation of the steel mill, including Gu Nan's plan and the possible impact, in detail and without reservation.

The superior on the other end of the phone was also shocked when he heard this. He knew very well that this was a great opportunity to deal with Deputy Director Li's faction. If he could not seize it firmly, it would be difficult to encounter such a suitable opportunity in the future. This not only concerns the reshuffle of power within the steel mill, but may even have an impact on the entire industry.

Gu Nan was naturally unaware of all this. He had already sorted out all the matters in his plan, done what he should do, arranged everything he should arrange, and tried his best to get himself out of any possible trouble. At this moment, he was like a calm bystander, just waiting to see the show begin.

On the other side, Xu Damao was standing in Deputy Director Li's office with a flattering look on his face, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and he said, "Deputy Director Li, we have completed all the preparations now. Everything is ready, and we only need the right time. When do you think we should start?"

Deputy Director Li leaned back in his office chair, his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile: "Don't worry. You just told me that Gu Nan and Lou Bancheng have a good relationship. This gave me a new idea. I was thinking about how to cleverly drag Gu Nan into this mess. When the time comes, I can deal with Gu Nan as well, so that he won't ruin our good deeds."

Xu Damao was originally only thinking about how to deal with Lou Bancheng and Lou Xiaoe, and he never expected that Deputy Director Li was so ambitious that he even wanted to take Gu Nan into account. He was slightly stunned, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. He thought to himself, if he could really deal with Gu Nan, then his status in the courtyard would suddenly become one of the best. At that time, who would dare to point fingers at him with the past things, and he would be able to hold his head high in front of everyone.

Xu Damao frowned, looked at Deputy Director Li with worry, and said, "But we don't have any solid evidence to deal with Gu Nan. What should we do?" He knew that Gu Nan was not a simple character in the steel mill. If he acted rashly, he might get into big trouble.

Deputy Director Li, however, looked calm, with a sly look in his eyes. He looked at Xu Damao and said, "Don't worry, Xu Damao. Don't forget that Gu Nan and Lou Xiao'e have a special relationship. As long as you grasp this point, this matter will not be so difficult to handle."

Xu Damao was still a little worried, and said with a bitter face: "Deputy Director Li, this matter is really not as simple as you think. Think about it, Gu Nan is an engineer in the steel rolling mill, and he has a certain status and influence in the factory. If we take action without sufficient evidence, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed."

Deputy Director Li smiled disdainfully, raised his chin slightly, and said: "There are quite a few people that the country needs to discipline at this time. What is a small engineer? You have to know that even Director Yang will not be able to protect himself in this storm and will have to be dealt with. Do you understand?" His tone was full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.

Xu Damao wanted to argue a few more times, but he swallowed his words back. At this time, Deputy Director Li leaned close to Xu Damao's ear and whispered his plan: "Xu Damao, you will follow my plan when the time comes. It will be foolproof. As long as Gu Nan is dealt with successfully, Director Yang will lose another capable assistant in the steel mill, and the entire steel mill will be ours sooner or later."

Xu Damao listened to Deputy Director Li's plan, and his eyes lit up as he listened. He felt that this plan was indeed brilliant and had a high chance of success. He nodded quickly and said, "Deputy Director Li, your plan is really brilliant. I will listen to you and make sure it's done well."

Afterwards, the two of them got together again and discussed in a low voice some other related details of the plan. Xu Damao patted his chest and said that he would spare no effort to carry it out and would definitely not let them down.

Meanwhile, in the quiet courtyard, an unknown operation is quietly brewing. Tong Ren, a man with a special mission, feels that the evidence he has collected is enough after a period of secret investigation. Although the deaf old lady is very old and looks like an ordinary old woman, the clues Tong Ren has show that if she is really an agent, she must not be taken lightly and must be taken away for interrogation.

Tong Ren knew that Zhang Ying, the man involved in this operation, was no ordinary character. During the war, although Zhang Ying did not fight the Japanese pirates head-on on the battlefield and kill the enemy, he was ruthless and merciless when killing his own people.

According to reliable intelligence, Zhang Ying killed at least 30 brave soldiers in the past few years. However, he disappeared without a trace as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth. Now it seems that Zhang Ying did not really disappear, but replaced someone else's identity through some means and lived among the people.
