Chapter 2175
Xu Damao Gets Beaten
Has He Yuzhu gone mad?
He Yuzhu is definitely not crazy.
At this moment, the behemoth in the north is about to undergo a tremendous change.
It began on November 16, 1988, and continued until 1991.
He Yuzhu is currently making preparations so that when the conflict breaks out, he can seize the opportunity to sit on the table and eat the cake.
He Yuzhu informed Lin Zhijie in advance that the government had also sent people to participate secretly.
On the surface, He Yuzhu is in charge of everything.
He transported those supplies not to make money, but to pave roads.
These are all classified matters; it's impossible to tell anyone else.
All that can be said is that he wants to do business with the Soviet Union.
Xu Damao ignored the advice, went back inside, and called He Yuzhu.
"Let me tell you, those three bastards, Yi Zhonghai, should give up their position as the manager."
Do you want to run for office?
When the time comes, I'll be the eldest uncle, and you'll be the second eldest uncle.
We sat in the courtyard and made them call us "Grandpa" in front of all the neighbors.
That scene, just thinking about it is incredibly beautiful.
He Yuzhu spat over the phone, "Are you out of your mind?"
That damn manager is just a figurehead they're playing house with.
I don't have the time to do that with you.
This is a shameful thing; you'd better not get involved.
After finishing his rant, He Yuzhu hung up the phone.
This life is not like Sha Zhu's life.
At that time, with Sha Zhu there keeping things in check, no matter how much dissatisfaction people had, they dared not speak out.
Therefore, the authority of the three old men was maintained.
Even now, their word still counts in the courtyard.
Later, the three old men even gave Sha Zhu the title of "Grandpa," using this title to place all the burdens of the courtyard house on Sha Zhu's shoulders.
But that was Sha Zhu's whole life.
The steward was a joke from the very beginning of his life. If it weren't for the deaf old lady threatening suicide, there wouldn't have been a steward.
They failed to hold their own, and the so-called "manager" was a joke.
Ever since Liu Haizhong stepped down, the people in the courtyard stopped taking the old man in charge seriously.
Only a few people, like Yi Zhonghai, are still insisting on being the so-called "managing authority."
Yi Zhonghai's idea of using the steward to trap him is just a pipe dream.
He Yuzhu couldn't be bothered with the messy affairs of the courtyard house; he'd let them fend for themselves.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Xu Damao spat and said, "If you don't want to, you don't want to. Why are you cursing?"
If you don't want to do it, I'll go find Wu Tiezhu and Li Zhenjiang.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Damao went to find Li Zhenjiang first.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenjiang looked at him as if he were an idiot: "How much alcohol did you drink?"
Do you really think those three old bastards can make you the boss?
Even if you were given the position, what rights would you have?
They're clearly trying to make you a sucker.
Xu Damao said, "Nonsense, of course I know they won't obediently let me be the manager."
I just want to hear them all obediently call me "Grandpa".
Those three old bastards have absolute power in the courtyard.
They forced us to call them "Grandpa" back then.
Apart from He Yuzhu, who among us hasn't been forced to shout by them?
Now's your chance to get them to call it back.
Tell me, was it great or not?
Li Zhenjiang nodded: "It's really satisfying to be able to get those three old bastards to come back."
"So you agreed? Let me tell you, when the time comes, I'll be the eldest grandpa, you'll be the third grandpa, and Wu Tiezhu will make him the second grandpa." Xu Damao had already planned it all out.
Li Zhenjiang replied, "What do you mean, 'agree'? I just said it felt good, but I didn't say I agreed."
"I still have business to do here." Xu Damao looked at Li Zhenjiang's restaurant and said speechlessly, "You deserve it. You married an unworthy wife and ruined your whole family."
"If you had chosen to work for He Yuzhu in the first place, would you have had to go through all this hardship?"
"Xu Damao, you bastard, who are you calling unworthy?" Coincidentally, Yu Li returned and overheard Xu Damao's words.
Xu Damao's heart skipped a beat, and he stood up awkwardly: "Yu Li, I was just joking with Zhenjiang."
Don't take it seriously.
If we're talking about who regrets it the most, it's definitely Yu Li.
She started her restaurant so early, working tirelessly from dawn till dusk for several years.
In the end, she earned less than her in-laws who did nothing at home.
No wonder she couldn't feel comfortable.
Unfortunately, the opportunity to make money has already been missed, and even if she wanted to back out, she couldn't.
She could only grit her teeth and persevere.
Thanks to her efforts, the family's restaurant business expanded from one to three.
Others who see her think she is a successful big boss.
Only she knew that his efforts were a joke in front of He Yuzhu.
What Yu Li least wanted to hear were the things Xu Damao had just said.
Xu Damao has finally met Yu Li's breaking point.
Yu Li angrily threw her handbag and went to hit Xu Damao.
Xu Damao circled the table, saying, "Yu Li, I was wrong. I'll apologize to you, okay?"
That definitely won't work; Yu Li hit even harder.
Xu Damao had no choice but to beg Li Zhenjiang for help: "Stop watching and stop your wife."
Li Zhenjiang was very disloyal: "You brought this on yourself, what does it have to do with me?"
Xu Damao shouted angrily, "Li Zhenjiang, I'm not done with you yet. You just wait."
Xu Damao could only continue pacing around the pillar in the restaurant.
At that moment, the restaurant door opened, and Yu Haitang walked in from outside.
"Hey, what's going on? Xu Damao, what did you do to upset my sister again?"
When Xu Damao saw Yu Haitang, he felt like he had found a savior and immediately scurried behind her to hide.
"Haitang, you've finally arrived. You'd better take care of your sister. She's gone mad."
Yu Li said angrily, "Xu Damao, you still dare to talk back."
Yu Haitang, being quite loyal, stepped forward to stop Yu Li: "Stop making a scene, your restaurant staff are just laughing at us."
With Yu Haitang stopping her, Yu Li couldn't pursue the matter, so she pointed at Xu Damao and said, "You just wait."
Xu Damao also breathed a sigh of relief, not daring to stay any longer: "Zhenjiang, think carefully about what I'm telling you. This is a good opportunity for us to vent our anger."
I'm leaving now.
When Yu Haitang saw that Xu Damao was about to leave, she was about to follow him out.
Yu Li shouted, "Where are you going?"
"I need to talk to Xu Damao about something, I'll be right back." Yu Haitang ran out without looking back.
"Xu Damao, wait for me." Yu Haitang called out to Xu Damao.
Xu Damao stopped and said with a smile, "Haitang, it's been a long time. You're still as beautiful as ever."
Yu Haitang said, "Stop teasing me."
Xu Damao said, feeling wronged, "I'm telling the truth. What have you been doing lately?"
Yu Haitang said, "Isn't that helping my sister?"
Xu Damao joked, "Working for your sister? Everyone in our compound says your sister is Yan Bugui's apprentice before he even formally became her disciple."
"If you work for her, how much will she pay you? She's not going to make you work for her at a loss, is she?"
"If you talk about her like that, aren't you afraid I'll go back and tell my sister?" Yu Haitang gave Xu Damao a small threat.
Xu Damao stubbornly replied, "I'm telling the truth. What am I afraid of?"
Yu Haitang said, "I was just kidding. My sister has become stingy since she married into your family."
I don't want to work with her anymore; I want to open my own restaurant.
"Xu Damao, could you help me invest some money? Consider it a loan; I'll pay you back when I have the funds."
"No problem, come find me again once you've chosen a place." Xu Damao readily agreed. (End of Chapter)
