Chapter 2173
The Debut of Happy Home
After discussing it and reaching an agreement, the group enjoyed a meal in peace.
During the meeting, they also discussed in detail how to divide and utilize Xu Damao to deal with He Yuzhu.
The group had a lively discussion.
If this had happened thirty years earlier, it would definitely have been a brilliant strategy.
Unfortunately, society has changed long ago.
People like them, living with outdated ideas, should have been swept into the dustbin of history long ago.
After finishing their meal, the group didn't linger and went to find Xu Damao and his gang.
When I arrived at the entrance of the residential area, I was stopped by the security guard.
He Yuzhu knew that Yi Zhonghai would find this place sooner or later, and he specifically named the community "Happy Home".
"Comrades, this is a private residential area, and you cannot enter or leave at will."
Yi Zhonghai and his group became particularly angry when they saw the security guards.
What angered them even more was that the security guards' uniforms were identical except for the words on them.
"We're here to find someone."
"Do you have an appointment?" the security guard asked.
Yi Zhonghai laughed in anger: "What appointment? We're here to see Xu Damao and Wu Tiezhu."
They were just ordinary workers; I'd never heard of needing an appointment to see them.
“Exactly. As the second uncle, I didn’t even arrange for anyone to make an appointment. Who do they think they are?” Liu Haizhong said indignantly.
Making an appointment like this is basically a privilege enjoyed only by high-ranking leaders.
What merit or ability do Xu Damao and Wu Tiezhu have to make appointments to see them?
Yan Bugui said directly, "Go tell them that the three of us old men have arrived, and they will know."
Looking at these people, Yan Bugui thought of himself. He was a gatekeeper for a courtyard house and had to endure everyone's disdain.
Why are these people allowed to receive salaries?
If he wasn't mistaken, the security guard room next door had air conditioning on.
His family didn't even enjoy this kind of treatment.
"Comrades, this is a private residential area. You are not allowed to enter without an appointment."
If you cause trouble, don't blame us for calling the police.
Upon hearing that the police had been called, Yi Zhonghai and his two companions became somewhat timid. They were genuinely reluctant to see the police.
Qin Huairu, standing to the side, looked at everything in this community with great envy.
How she longed to live here.
"Security guard, we really are here to find someone. We used to be their neighbors, could you please let us in?"
The security guard refused, saying instead, "What are your names? Who are you looking for? I'll ask for you."
Yi Zhonghai said, "Call Xu Damao and tell him that an old man is looking for him."
"An old man?" The security guard didn't react for a moment, thinking that was Yi Zhonghai's name.
Liu Haizhong retorted, "I'm your second uncle. Tell him I've come to see him."
Seeing that the two had introduced themselves, Yan Bugui felt it would be awkward if he didn't, so he said, "I am the Third Uncle."
The security guard looked puzzled, then turned to Qin Huairu and asked, "Are there any people with the surnames 'One,' 'Two,' or 'Three'?"
Qin Huairu quickly explained, "They are the managers of our compound. The eldest is called Uncle Da, the second is called Uncle Er, and the third is called Uncle San."
Tell them. They already know.
The security guard, puzzled, ran back to the reception room to make a phone call.
Upon hearing this, Wu Tiezhu knew it was bad news and refused outright.
Xu Damao, on the other hand, became curious after receiving the call and decided to come out and take a look.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Xu Fugui asked, "Where are you going?"
Xu Damao said, "Yi Zhonghai and the others are here. They're at the entrance of the residential area. I'll go check on them."
Upon hearing this, Xu Fugui frowned: "Why are you getting involved in their messy affairs?"
The three of them were treacherous and cunning; all they did in their lives was commit evil deeds.
"You finally moved out, can't you at least avoid them?"
Xu Damao said nonchalantly, "What's there to be afraid of? They just want to find someone to take care of them in their old age, don't they?"
"I'll take care of them in their old age, let's see if they dare to agree." Ignoring Xu Fugui's attempts to stop him, he ran straight to the entrance of the residential area.
Yi Zhonghai and his companions peered through the gate, observing everything inside the community. They saw the garden, the pavilion, and even the fitness equipment.
The hearts of all of them were filled with envy.
Yi Zhonghai, in particular, was extremely envious.
The traditional courtyard house in his mind couldn't compare to this place.
Even if he were very picky, he could only find one problem: everyone lived in their own separate households, unlike a collective.
Qin Huairu couldn't help but say, "If only we could stay here."
Liu Haizhong sighed regretfully, "If I hadn't been tricked by Li Huaide, I could have afforded a house here."
Yan Bugui certainly envied the houses here, but he would definitely not be willing to spend money to buy them.
His focus was different from others; he started chatting with the security guard.
"How much do you get paid a month here? The yard is so clean, do you clean it all?"
The security guard proudly introduced it to him.
Little did he know, Yan Bugui was already plotting how to get He Yuzhu to drive him away so he could take his place and block the door.
"Oh, everyone's here. So, what do you want?"
Seeing Xu Damao's nonchalant attitude, Yi Zhonghai got angry: "Is this how you treat your guests?"
Xu Damao spat and said, "Don't flatter yourselves. Are you even guests?"
Fearing that Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao would start arguing, Yan Bugui quickly stepped forward and said, "Damao, we have something very important to discuss with you."
"This concerns the person in charge; are you sure you want to discuss this here?"
Xu Damao asked curiously, "What era are we living in? Don't mention the old man in charge anymore."
"What if we recommend you to be the eldest man in the courtyard?" Yan Bugui said casually.
"Let me be a big shot?" Xu Damao's interest was piqued. "Would Yi Zhonghai be willing?"
Liu Haizhong said, "If he wasn't willing, he wouldn't have come here."
"Tell them to open the door, and we'll talk inside your house."
Xu Damao was not too happy, but the group went into his house. This was a new house, not the dilapidated hut in the courtyard house.
“My dad is at home. Are you sure you want to go to my house?”
Yi Zhonghai and the others exchanged glances, but did not dare to insist.
They were confident they could handle Xu Damao, but lacked the confidence to face Xu Fugui.
"We can't just chat at the door."
Xu Damao said, "That's easy. There's a park over there. We can go there."
On the way to the park, Qin Huairu leaned close to Xu Damao and asked, "What kind of people live in such a big neighborhood?"
Xu Damao looked at Qin Huairu warily: "Why are you asking this?"
Qin Huai smiled charmingly: "Isn't it just that I'm curious? This neighborhood is so beautiful."
Xu Damao said, "Many leaders live inside, including leaders from the No. 3 State-owned Cotton Mill."
Qin Huairu then asked, "By the way, does Uncle He also live here?"
Old Yan went to his house a while ago, but the place had been renovated.
Xu Damao didn't hide anything and said, "He lives here and often drinks with my father."
Qin Huairu continued, "Are there any empty houses here?"
Xu Damao suddenly stopped and looked at Qin Huairu: "Why are you asking about an empty house? You don't mean you want to move in, do you?"
Forget about it. Even if you were given the house, you couldn't afford to live in it.
"I don't believe you, find me a house..."
“Huai Ru…” Yi Zhonghai was not happy.
He is satisfied with the neighborhood environment, but that doesn't mean he's willing to move in.
He still prefers to live in a traditional courtyard house. Everyone lives in the same courtyard, so there's no sense of distance between them.
If someone is being abused, others will know immediately. (End of Chapter)
