Chapter 572: Liu Haizhong loses more than he gains
Liu Haizhong now wants to ask Guo Dapiaozi why he accepted money from Yan Bugui.
The money I spent here is completely wasted... This bastard Yi Zhonghai always comes up with bad ideas. Does he have a grudge against my Liu family?
Along the way, Shazhu and his friends talked to each other and taught Yan Jiecheng how to abide by the rules of the steel mill...
"Jie Cheng, you must remember the most important thing: don't look at girls at the door. Otherwise, even your father won't be able to save you if you get beaten..."
Yan Jiecheng is very excited now, he can finally be an apprentice...
"Brother Zhuzi, you can't look at it at the gate... Can you look at it in the factory?"
Yan Jiecheng's words stunned Shazhu, Jia Dongxu and the others.
"Jie Cheng, you're not bad! You're a talented guy...as long as you can take a beating."

Workshop 1
When Liu Haizhong arrived, he went to find Guo Dapiaozi...
"Old Guo, have you...have you sold paintings again these past two days?"
Guo Dapiaozi looked at Liu Haizhong with a frown, then glared at him.
"Old Liu, do you want to intervene in Director Li's affairs? I did sell a few paintings, do you have any objection?"
When Liu Haizhong saw the change in Guo Dapiezi's expression, he immediately put on a smile...
"I don't have any objections. I'm just asking out of curiosity. I sounded a little anxious just now, so don't take it personally."
Li Huaide went to preside over the merger of branch factories, and only after he arrived did he realize it was a lucrative position.
Many people wanted to work in the main factory, so he took advantage of the situation and arranged for a few generous people to work there.
Guo Da Piezi just happened to be helping him make money recently...
"Lao Liu, we are old friends! You should know what to ask and what not to ask. We are all in the same boat. Don't make me teach you a second time."
After hearing this, Liu Haizhong sighed inwardly...
He now knew that it was hopeless to stop the Yan family.
Yan Jiecheng officially joined the steel mill, and only the people in the courtyard talked about it. Others didn't care about it...
"Old Guo, how long will it take for Director Li to come back to take charge of the work? There are two vacant houses in our yard now, and I want to give them to my second son. Can you help me ask..."
Guo Dapiezi had no idea that he was just a dog raised by Li Huaide. He didn't dare to ask about his master's affairs...
"I'll ask for you when I see you! Don't get your hopes up, Director Li is busy right now!"
After finishing a cigarette, Guo Dapiezi returned to his group.
Now Liu Haizhong is left alone in a daze...
"What hope do I have? A bunch of black-hearted people..."

Front door
Chen's new building
Today is the day of Xiao Linqing's full moon banquet, and there are twenty tables full of people.
The Chen family had lived in Qianmen for more than ten years, and they had all the etiquette and courtesy. Now that Chen Xueru's daughter was having a full-month banquet, almost all the neighbors in Zhengyangmen came to congratulate her.
Lin Chen dealt with the steel mill's affairs early in the morning and came here in disguise...
The child’s father must show up today, otherwise it would be unacceptable.
Niu Ye was the general commander of the banquet, and he was an elder in Qianmen. Everyone gave him face, so Lin Chen and Chen Xueru handed the banquet over to Niu Ye.
Lin Chen didn't care how much the gift was, the main thing was to let the people at the front door know. Chen Xueru lived a comfortable life even though she didn't marry into the Hou family...
"Thank you all for coming to my daughter's full moon banquet. Xueru and I would like to offer a toast to you all."
The Chen family was also well-known in Qianmen, and the banquet was definitely of high quality. Seeing the delicious food and wine, everyone stood up and returned the greetings to Lin Chen and Chen Xueru...drinking together!
After Pian Ye sat down, he wiped the corner of his mouth and said: "What a good wine! It has to be Chen Xueru. Look at the feast. I'm afraid fifteen dollars won't be enough for a table!"
"Yes! I heard from Master Niu that Chen Xueru asked him to make arrangements yesterday. The banquet will cost 300 yuan. He is happy to have a rich lady..."
Several people were discussing it, and someone mentioned Xu Huizhen again.
"Have you heard? Xu Huizhen will also hold a full-moon banquet for her daughter at the tavern next month, and it will be of the same standard as today's."
……
In a spacious room on the second floor of the Chen family, Lin Chen and Chen Xueru were looking at the baby sleeping in the cradle.
"Our Xiao Linqing will now have a legitimate position in Qianmen!"
Lin Chen put his arm around Chen Xueru's slender waist and said, "Of course, every one of my children must be seen in public. I've already asked Pian Ye to announce that the tavern will continue to hold a table for Huizhen and her daughter to celebrate next month..."
Chen Xueru didn't care at all about spending several hundred dollars on setting up the banquet, let alone Lin Chen.
The Lin Group's daily overseas income could buy the entire Qianmen Street and Wangfujing Street...
After two days of teaching, Chen Xueru has learned a lot about business. Now she just has no place to show her skills...
"It should be, all sisters are the same."

Evening
Courtyard house
Liu Haizhong reluctantly announced that he would withdraw from the competition for the back house...
The Liu family is not playing anymore, so whoever has ideas can go ahead!
Jia Zhang from the west room is the happiest person now. She was so happy when the Yan family withdrew yesterday.
Now that the Liu family has withdrawn again...she is even happier.
At the Jia family's dinner table, Jia Zhang could not hide her joy.
"Dongxu, why did Fatty Liu suddenly stop fighting? Do they have any inside information?"
Jia Dongxu shook his head gently: "I don't know either. On the way back, Liu Haizhong said that he was not interested in the back house. According to the speculation of several uncles, the factory should have arranged other people. Otherwise, the Yan family would have withdrawn after inviting Uncle Lin to dinner the day before yesterday..."
When Jia Zhang heard that the factory had arranged for someone to work, she immediately felt disappointed...
"I've only heard about it and I'm not 100% sure. If they don't want it, I will. As soon as the Cao family moves out, I'll move over... If someone comes, I can move back. If no one comes, then it'll belong to me, Jia Zhang!"
Jia Dongxu and his wife did not object. Although they knew there was little hope, if his mother was willing to try, then let her do it.
The couple didn't want to live with her...what if that really happened?

Xu family
Xu Lingling had been gone for almost half a month, and today she returned to her home in the courtyard with a little rain.
Zhu Cuicui looked at the changes in her sister-in-law and became a little confused.
"Lingling, what do you eat when you follow Director Bai? This is a big change!"
Hearing her sister-in-law's teasing, Xu Lingling lowered her head in shame.
"It's definitely better than eating at home! Sister-in-law, you... just stop worrying about me. Look, Li Danniu's belly is getting bigger soon... you and my brother still have to work harder!"
Xu Lingling successfully changed the subject. My mother had asked me this question when I just got home... Now my sister-in-law asked me again, "Has the change been so big? Do you feel okay?"
"Don't worry! Your sister-in-law will definitely give you a nephew... Will you be home for dinner later?"
Xu Lingling giggled: "She's not here. Jingru made some cold noodles. I'm going to her place to eat..."
Zhu Cui looked at her sister-in-law who had grown up, and she felt suspicious...
"Smart, who would stay at home and eat steamed bread when there are delicious foods... Lingling is lucky, go to his house, there is a fan."
Zhu Cui's life is in Lin Chen's hands, and now what Lin Chen says is like an imperial decree to her.
Even if it was her own sister, she would help push it over. What's more, she was just a sister-in-law...
"Okay, I'll go to my sister-in-law first."
