Siheyuan: Starting Out as Chief of Public Security

[Minor System] [No involvement with the original series' female characters] [Moderately ruthless] [Anyone who crosses the protagonist gets dealt with within the rules. If you don't like that, don't read.] In his previous life, Zhong Aiguo was a discharged soldier who found work in the government system. He stumbled across a fanfiction based on Love in the Courtyard and fell in love with the genre. He even went out of his way to watch the TV series, though it didn't make much of an impression on him. Then, while rescuing someone who had fallen into the water, he saved them but cramped up and drowned. His soul transmigrated into another Zhong Aiguo, a soldier discharged due to injury. The new Zhong Aiguo was assigned as head of public security at the security office of the Red Star Steel Plant, and given the east wing of the front courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang to live in. On his very first day, he ran into Yan Bugui's... The next day, he encountered Jia Zhangshi, the vanguard of the old-age-support faction... The Deaf Old Lady and Yi Zhonghai, leaders of the group scheming for someone to support them in their old age, tried all sorts of tricks... Zhong Aiguo thought that being head of the public security section would let him live comfortably in this era. Little did he know that the power players at the steel plant... How would Zhong Aiguo rise through the ranks, step by step? And how would he treat the residents of No. 95?
