Chapter 1160 What to do when you encounter such a neighbor 47
After burning paper money for Lin Dongquan and returning to the residential area, it was already completely dark. At this hour, there were still some people wandering around the area under the dim streetlights.
When they returned, the two of them didn't attract much attention.
In the darkness, staring at the elevator that was mostly installed, even though she was no longer angry about the incident, Yi Shulan was still somewhat lost in thought.
Azhen didn't urge her, and just stood there, waiting for Yi Shulan to come to her senses.
She had some idea of Yi Shulan's thoughts. In fact, she had a pretty good relationship with her neighbors. She was just a little moved by their sudden change of attitude.
The reason the other person recovered so quickly this time wasn't just because she paid close attention to their health, but mainly because she had told them about Lin Dongquan. Between the two, nothing was more important than knowing that Lin Dongquan existed in another form.
After a moment of reflection, Yi Shulan was about to call Azhen upstairs.
Just then, voices came from not far ahead, and the name Yi Shulan was vaguely mentioned, which made her stop and strain her ears to listen.
"I hope Yi Shulan won't ruin the elevator installation project?"
"It's not a big problem. Most of it has been installed now. It's not an illegal building, and all the relevant permits are in order. What can Yi Shulan do? If things really get out of hand, she might not be in the right. So many of us are waiting to use the elevator. It's not up to her to decide."
"Didn't Zhou Guifeng already say that there's no written agreement about that matter, so it's useless for anyone to come and they can't side with her? Besides, if it really has to be demolished, whoever does the demolition is responsible for all the costs. Although Yi Shulan's family isn't poor, they're not rich either. How can we expect them to pay for it for nothing?"
"She has no choice but to accept it."
"To be honest, things have gotten this big, it's really getting ugly. I'm just worried that if Yi Shulan really comes up with a way to mess things up, it'll be terrible if we can't use the elevator. If I had known this would happen, I would have been better off compensating Yi Shulan's family in the first place."
"Shh, let's not talk about this anymore. We agreed not to mention it, and it's enough for us high-level executives to know. If this gets out, even if Yi Shulan is a soft-hearted person, she won't let it go."
"If that family were as easy to talk to as Yi Shulan was back then, they wouldn't have asked for compensation. It's precisely because we know their character that we, the senior members of several companies, discussed using some money to shut them up. We also told them that the money was not something Yi Shulan had, and that's why they happily agreed. The main thing is their location; the elevator being installed here doesn't have much of an impact."
"If it were really like Yi Shulan, that family would probably take action against the elevator overnight. Their son is a scoundrel who has been to the police station several times for fighting. He doesn't care about breaking the law. Getting into the police station is a minor issue; the real problem is that they might act like scoundrels, and then we won't be able to install the elevator."
Even without seeing the speaker's expression, Yi Shulan could imagine from his tone how terrified he was when he mentioned that family.
After thinking about it for a while, Yi Shulan was so angry she laughed.
It turns out that her kindness, her reluctance to do anything, and her consideration for her neighbors were seen by others as her being too soft-hearted and easy to manipulate. Not only did they not compensate her, they also turned around and accused her of wrongdoing.
She finally understood why people online always say that good people don't get good rewards—wasn't that a perfect description of her current situation? It's just that her current situation isn't that bad.
Although she managed to calm herself down later today, she wouldn't have been able to let go so quickly if she hadn't heard about the old man.
Yi Shulan had no intention of arguing with them; there was no point in doing so.
Thinking about what she would do at home next, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. That dirty trick was really satisfying. She hadn't even started yet, but just thinking about it made her feel better.
Back home, Yi Shulan didn't mention what had happened before. Instead, she kept saying, "I wonder if your dad will appear in my dreams tonight now that he's rich."
"I just don't know how quickly the money arrives in the underworld. Next time you see your father, remember to ask him about the situation there. But if he doesn't tell you, don't force him. He must have his reasons. He's a meticulous person; he'll definitely tell you what he can and absolutely won't."
"Will the underworld have quotas or something like this, just like here?" Azhen sat next to him, listening to these questions.
Yi Shulan was just missing Lin Dongquan, which is why she kept talking about him. She was happy, so she didn't need to respond much at this time.
Despite all the events that happened during the day, Yi Shulan's sleep was unaffected; in fact, she slept earlier and better than usual.
Early in the morning, just as dawn was breaking, before Azhen had even left her room to check on Yi Shulan, she received a call from her company boss, Xu Jun.
“Xiao Yi, you really have some skills. Yesterday afternoon I burned a lot of ghost money for my old lady, and last night I ran into her. She talked to me a lot in my dream. I’m sure it was a dream, but it wasn’t an ordinary dream.”
"The old lady also said that she has a few opportunities to come and see me in person every month, but the time is not too long. It's too expensive to come to me in a dream. If there is something that is not so private, she will not come to me in a dream, but will come to your company directly and ask you to help convey her message."
"Xiao Yi, you've been with the company for two or three years now. How come I've never heard of your abilities before?"
Xu Jun sighed, but A-Zhou didn't explain.
Who is Xu Jun? Someone who can run a company is certainly not stupid. Seeing that Azhen did not respond to the topic, he automatically changed the subject.
"If my mother needs you to relay anything next time, I'll have to trouble you."
Azhen said, "It's nothing. The old lady is a kind person. I remember when I first came to the company, I was lucky enough to eat her cooking for a month. It was delicious."
"Anyway, thank you so much for this." Xu Jun's voice was filled with excitement, and he didn't say anything more.
After hanging up the phone, Azhen's social media account received a notification sound.
Upon opening the message, she saw that Xu Jun had transferred 18888 yuan to her, addressing her as "Master Yi" instead of "Xiao Yi," and being very polite.
Azhen accepted the opening bonus sent via bank transfer without hesitation.
I also sent a message: Mr. Xu, if you know anyone who needs this kind of service, feel free to contact me. My prices are fair.
Xu Jun: Are you having cash flow problems lately? I can lend you some money. You don't need to pay it back right away; you can pay it back when you have more.
Yi Huan: No, I just suddenly wanted to make some money to think about the future.
Xu Jun: Do you want to invest in the company? I'll guide you; it's very simple.
For Xu Jun, it was enough to treat such an expert as a mascot; he didn't need her to do anything.
For someone as skilled as him, making money would be a piece of cake. He's lucky to know him.
Yi Huan: Let's talk about that later. I'm not suited for management or business. I'm sure Mr. Xu has gotten to know what kind of person I am over the years. If it weren't for some unexpected events, I wouldn't have thought about doing a side business to earn money. For now, we're just getting started, and I'll have to ask Mr. Xu to introduce more clients.
It's best to let the client consider this matter themselves later.
