Chapter 550 The compound is my home, I have money by taking

Finally it's the weekend.

Taking advantage of just getting back from get off work, Yi Zhonghai called everyone to a meeting in the Intermediate Court.

"Everyone, remember to get up early tomorrow and repair the yard early so that everyone can rest early. This is a matter concerning our yard itself."

"Don't think that being lazy is irrelevant. Repairing the yard is everyone's business. It's good for everyone. Each household should send one person to help."

"Okay, I'll stop here. If you have any questions, please ask. If you don't have any, go home and rest early."

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai saw that no one raised their hands, so he adjourned the meeting and left first.

"Well, let's go back. Go to bed early tonight because we have to get up early tomorrow." Everyone went home.

"Hey, Yan Jiecheng, wait a minute." Li Kailang hurriedly called out to Yan Jiecheng who was about to go home.

"what's up?"

"Don't we have to get up early tomorrow to repair the yard? You know me. I usually sleep until the sun is high in the sky and can't get up."

Before he could finish his words, Yan Jiecheng interrupted him: "Hey, you don't want me to help you, to take your place, right? No! Don't even bother. I don't want to get up early either."

Yan Bugui, who was standing by, also hurriedly said, "Xiao Li, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but repairing the yard is a big deal for our yard, and everyone has a share. How can you be special?"

Although he said so, in his heart Yan Bugui didn't want to lose Yan Jiecheng, his free helper, as he could have him take his place when he was tired.

How is it possible that I have done it for others for free?

Li Kailang had no intention of letting Yan Jiecheng help in vain.

"I won't help you for free. I'll pay you to do it for me. Is that okay?"

"Spend money and hire me?" Yan Jiecheng pointed at himself in disbelief.

Li Kailang nodded: "That's right, just tell me how much it costs, and if the price is reasonable, I will hire you."

"Okay, okay." Yan Jiecheng never thought that there would be a day when he would be needed and someone would spend money to hire him and give him such face.

I was used to being treated as free labor, so when suddenly someone paid to hire me, I was stunned for a moment.

Yan Bugui on the side became anxious. He originally wanted to ask Yan Jiechengbai for help, but now that he was hired, he had to work honestly.

Except for Yan Jiecheng who is an adult laborer, the rest are children and cannot help.

Yan Bugui quickly stopped him and said, "Oh, that won't work. Jie Cheng still needs to help me."

Li Kailang said nothing, just looked at Yan Jiecheng.

When Yan Bugui said this, Yan Jiecheng knew that he would have to work for free again, so he agreed immediately.

"I'll definitely help you with this. Here, you give me 10, no, 5 dollars."

For Yan Jiecheng, 5 yuan was a big profit. He could earn a week's salary just by helping with one day's work.

Seeing that Yan Bugui wanted to say something, Li Kailang immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll give you money now, not 5 yuan, but 10 yuan. You have to help me tomorrow."

After saying that, Li Kailang took out a big black ten from his pocket and slapped it into Yan Jiecheng's hand.

"I've already paid you 10 yuan, so I can't go back on my word, or the penalty will double."

"No regrets, absolutely no regrets!" Yan Jiecheng looked at the big black ten in his hand greedily, unable to suppress the corner of his smile.

Seeing this, Li Kailang didn't even look at Yan Bugui, and immediately ran away.

Yan Bugui also looked at Dahei Shi with shining eyes: "It's solved!"

Before he could finish his words, Yan Jiecheng immediately took the money without even showing it to Yan Bugui.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?"

"This is my money. Li Kailang paid me to do this. This is not my family's money."

Yan Bugui immediately put his eloquent tongue to good use.

"Alas, you can't say that. After all, this is the courtyard's business. As a member of the Yan family, you naturally have to help. This is something you were supposed to do."

"But now you want to help Li Kailang, so I have to do it. If I don't work, can you earn this money? Think about it yourself."

"Besides, how was it agreed in the beginning? The money you earn has to be handed over to your family. You have brothers and sisters."

Yan Bugui said a lot of things, and finally, Yan Jiecheng reluctantly gave up and handed over 5 yuan to settle the matter.

Yan Jiecheng looked at the money with gritted teeth, then looked at Yan Bugui's triumphant back and said, "Forget it, as long as there's money to be made."

Li Kailang didn't care how Yan Jiecheng solved the problem, he only cared about not getting up early the next day.

"No, it's still not safe. They will definitely make a lot of noise tomorrow. I'll go back to the planting space to sleep at night to avoid being woken up early in the morning."

The reason why the yard was renovated was that the street office sent a batch of bricks a few days ago.

The number of bricks in this batch is not large, but it is enough to replace all the severely damaged bricks in the yard and fill the gaps.

The sky gradually darkened and soon it was completely dark.

Someone saw that it was about time and not many people came out of the yard, so he came out cautiously.

Go directly to the front yard and see a small hill of bricks. These are the bricks that will be replaced tomorrow.

"Hey, there are so many bricks that we can't use them all anyway. It's no big deal if they're cheap for my family."

As he spoke, he looked around to make sure no one was looking at him, then carefully picked up a pile of bricks and took them home.

After going back and forth several times, a small gap appeared on the hill of bricks.

Someone came and went several times and gradually became tired, making some noise inadvertently.

Yan Bugui was resting at home and preparing to go to sleep when he heard some noise outside the door. Thinking it was a thief, he carefully opened the curtains and looked out.

"Jia Zhang, what are you doing?"

Bang bang! ! !

"Oh my God!" The sudden sound scared Jia Zhang, and the bricks in her hand fell to the ground one by one, almost hitting his feet.

She immediately yelled, "Yan Laoxi, you f*cking want to scare me to death!"

"Hey, you Jia Zhang, you think you're justified in stealing things!" This made Yan Jiecheng unhappy. He put on his clothes and wanted to argue with Jia Zhang.

"Jia Zhang, what do you want to do? These are bricks that the street gave to everyone to repair their yards. How dare you steal them and take them home? You are stealing!"

Jia Zhang spat, "Bah, that's just a bunch of stealing. You old man Yan, don't try to fool me. Just taking some bricks is nothing. I can use a few of these bricks."

"Yan Laoxi, don't pretend to be a good person. Didn't you secretly carry bricks to your own house? Do you really think I don't know?"

Jia Zhangshi did not tolerate Yan Bugui and started to expose his shortcomings directly.

Yan Bugui argued, "Hey, hey, hey, Jia Zhang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Which eye of yours saw me moving home?"

"I just moved the brick to a suitable place, not home. Don't slander me!"

"Oh, yes, yes, you moved all the bricks to your own house. You are really good at talking. You are really capable. You are really a teacher." Jia Zhang said sarcastically.

Seeing that he could not win the argument with Jia Zhang, Yan Bugui immediately changed the subject.

"Then I'm not like you either. There was a neat pile of bricks, but I just cleared out a corner for you. You took quite a lot. You're really amazing. You're afraid that others won't notice it."

"No, no, no, there's no reason to move the things I brought back home."

Jia Zhang didn't care about that and just acted arrogantly. "Okay, okay, you don't want to take it back, right? Then I'll go to the street office tomorrow morning and say that someone is trying to poach you and send you to jail again!"

Yan Bugui was furious and made a direct threat.

"Prison!!!" When Jia Zhang heard these two words, her heart skipped a beat and she was extremely scared.

He can do anything except go to jail.

"I'll move it, I'll move it!"

At this time, someone has to come out and act as a peacemaker.

"Uncle, don't be angry. It's just a few bricks. It's not a big deal. We are all neighbors. Just forget it."

Yi Zhonghai always likes to stand up at this time.

He was not speaking for Jia Zhang, but for Qin Huairu. After all, she was pregnant, and as a pregnant woman, she deserved more care.

Besides, Jia Zhang stole the bricks not for any other reason but just to build a stove.

Yan Bugui didn't respond to Yi Zhonghai's question: "Uncle, how about you help carry the bricks back?"

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai was a little angry that Yan Bugui didn't give him face.

"Uncle, forget it. It's just a few bricks."

"Forget it? I don't have the right to do that. Why don't you go talk to Officer Liu from the Street Office and tell him to give the bricks that were used to build the road to the yard to Jia Zhangshi to use at home."

Seeing that Yan Bugui didn't give him face, Yi Zhonghai simply didn't give him face either.

"Third uncle is right. It is indeed wrong to take things from the yard. Jia Zhangshi, you should quickly move the bricks you took home back."

"Old Yi." Jia Zhang still wanted to struggle.

"Go!" Yi Zhonghai shouted, and turned to look at Yan Bugui again: "Third uncle, I heard from Jia Zhang that you also carried bricks home."

"Then please move the bricks out. You are the third uncle in the yard, you should lead by example."

"Ah? What did you say? How come I didn't know about this?" Yan Bugui still wanted to quibble.

But Yi Zhonghai didn't give him any face: "Uncle, don't pretend to be innocent. You secretly moved bricks, do you think I don't know?"

"I've counted these bricks, and the number is wrong. Please move them out voluntarily, or I'll talk to the street office tomorrow."

"I don't know if he is worthy of the position of a steward if he did such a thing."

"I'll move it, I'll move it." Yan Bugui responded immediately, feeling only regret in his heart.

Just now he was only thinking about retorting to Jia Zhangshi, but he didn't expect to get himself involved.

Staring at Jia Zhang, I should have known this earlier. Forget it, it's too late to say anything now.

Yan Bugui had no choice but to go home and move bricks, watching Yan Jiecheng lying there motionless.

"What are you looking at? Come over and lend a hand. Do you want me to move all these bricks by myself?"

Yan Jiecheng curled his lips reluctantly and muttered softly: "It's not too much to take home, but it's tiring to take it out."

I didn't want to do this sneaky thing in the first place, but you insisted on doing it secretly.

It's me who moves back home, and it's me who moves out again. What bad luck.

They say you can never be poor if you eat and drink, but you will become poor if you don’t plan well.

Liu Haizhong, who arrived late, was extremely disappointed when he saw that the situation was resolved. He felt that he had not played any role at all. How could this be acceptable?

"Everyone, listen to me. The bricks in this yard were given to us by the neighborhood office to repair our yard. Look at how broken our yard is."

"These are all everyone's things, not just any one family's. If anyone dares to take them from their own home again, don't blame me for not giving them face. I will report them directly to the neighborhood office."

"Old Yan, don't just stand there. Move quickly. We have to get up early tomorrow to repair the road."

"Jia Zhang, don't be so slow. You stole it home so quickly, but why are you so slow to move it back? If you don't want to return it, call the police."

The two of them were pointed at in the face by Liu Haizhong and dared not refute with a gloomy face. They could only move obediently and curse each other in their hearts.

After Liu Haizhong finished talking about the two of them, he turned around and talked about Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Yi, you are the one I am talking to. Why do you always side with the Jia family when things happen? Even though Jia Dongxu is your apprentice and Banggeng is your godson, you are related to the Jia family."

"But what you did was really unfair. The courtyard is not the Jia family's, and you don't have the final say in our courtyard. Don't do this again in the future."

Yi Zhonghai's face turned black after being lectured by Liu Haizhong.

The three of them had gloomy faces, and no one could tell right now.

Jia Dongxu couldn't sit still immediately, Liu Haizhong was targeting his Jia family.

"Liu Haizhong, what are you talking about? My master didn't say anything. He just didn't want to report this to the street office. A few bricks are nothing."

The three people Liu Haizhong mentioned were speechless and dared not say a word. Their hearts were completely filled with anger.

"Hey, Jia Dongxu, you're still unhappy even though I didn't tell you, right? Your mom is carrying bricks into the house. They don't belong to your family, they belong to everyone. Don't you know to stop her?"

"You take a little today, I take a little tomorrow, and he takes a little the day after tomorrow. Whoever doesn't take will suffer. If everyone takes, what will our yard become? It's a den of bandits!"

"Jia Dongxu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but your ideological awareness needs to be improved!"

Jia Dongxu was also left speechless.

Seeing the four people speechless, Liu Haizhong just felt like the God of War descended today and was invincible.

Liu Haizhong suddenly shouted: "Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu, where are the dead people?"

"exist!"

"here!"

The two men responded immediately and hurried out of the crowd, fearing that they would be beaten if they came out too late.

But as soon as they stood out, they looked at each other and felt that they were about to be in big trouble.

Liu Haizhong was very satisfied with the two's behavior. "I am ordering you two as the second master of the yard to watch these bricks carefully tonight."

"If anyone dares to take it, you two will report it to me directly. Also, make sure the Jia and Yan families return the bricks. If there is any missing, call the police directly."

Jia Zhangshi and Yan Bugui's faces turned even darker.

"Yes, Second Uncle!" The two men straightened their heads and saluted in response.

But in my heart I was secretly cursing Liu Haizhong for being so cruel and inhuman!
This behavior was very impressive, and Liu Haizhong was very pleased. "Very good! I am optimistic about you two!"

After giving the order to the two, Liu Haizhong turned around and looked at everyone: "Alright, there's nothing else to do. Everyone go home and have a rest. We still have to work early tomorrow morning, so don't get up too late."

"Hmph!" Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction, but he could do nothing about it.

Yan Bugui and Jia Zhangshi had no choice but to return the bricks obediently and go back home to sleep.

How can I fall asleep easily when I'm so angry?

The worst off were the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, who had to freeze outside all night in order to guard the bricks.

Fortunately, it is July, the height of summer, and it is not that cold at night.

Fortunately, Liu Haizhong had some conscience and knew that they were working for him, so he pulled two quilts over to cover them so that they wouldn't have to freeze all night.
