Lying Low to Scavenge in the Courtyard

Zhang Weiguo transmigrates to that era of scarcity, a time of lacking clothes and food.

He is a decorated veteran who has been transferred to a position as the head of the purchasing departme...

Chapter 64: Shazhu gets beaten

But Sha Zhu spoke very seriously, and when asked who the woman was, he stammered and couldn't answer.

No one else can verify it.

If you use this excuse to deal with Xu Damao, it really doesn't make sense.

The second uncle had no intention of dealing with Xu Damao at all, he just wanted to get more benefits from Xu Damao.

Xu Damao often goes to the countryside to show movies, which brings him some extra income, and the villagers will give him some local specialties.

These specialties are good things in this era. Lou Xiao'e is rich and doesn't care about these things, so Xu Damao uses these things to win people's hearts.

The second and third uncles received many things from Xu Damao. Xu Damao also knew that the first uncle had his eyes on Sha Zhu and didn't like him either, so he didn't give anything to the first uncle.

He is just an old man who only earns 99 yuan a month and doesn't care about these small favors at all.

The first uncle looked down on it, but the third uncle thought it was a good thing. Xu Damao often invited the second uncle to drink.

In the entire courtyard, three uncles are in charge. The first uncle has a crush on Sha Zhu, so Xu Damao can only look for the second uncle and the third uncle.

The second uncle's salary is not as good as the first uncle's, but he is not short of money, otherwise he would not eat a fried egg every day and eat better than the first uncle.

He was mainly looking for the feeling of being flattered and was obsessed with becoming an official.

The second uncle wanted to take advantage of this incident to get some benefits from Xu Damao. In this compound, the second uncle and Xu Damao were the closest to each other, and they were both villains.

Moreover, Xu Damao is good at talking, and the flattery makes the Second Master feel very comfortable, unlike Sha Zhu, who can choke people to death with just one word.

The second uncle had a plan, but his ability was limited and he didn't know how to solve the problem.

He often drank with Xu Damao, knew Xu Damao's alcohol tolerance, and also knew Xu Damao's reaction when drunk. As for molesting the girl, that was unlikely. How could he have the chance to molest her when she was drunk?

However, what Shazhu said has substance and cannot be denied with just one sentence.

Ask Sha Zhu to find the person, but Sha Zhu can't find him.

What’s more crucial is that Xu Damao also beat Lou Xiao’e. How to deal with this matter? Lou Xiao’e’s father is Lou Bancheng. Although times have changed, his influence still remains.

The steel mill is someone else's property, but it was donated to the country and only a small portion of the shares were retained.

If he said he didn't know several important leaders, no one would believe him. But based on these relationships, it would only take a word to deal with him.

The second uncle doesn't have the ability to solve the problem without offending anyone.

I can only discuss it with Third Uncle. What kind of person is Third Uncle? He won't move at all unless there is benefit.

Now you need tickets to buy anything, and everything is rationed. Every household and every person is supplied with a uniform amount of food coupons, oil coupons, and cloth coupons.

If you don’t have a ticket, you can only go to the pigeon market and buy food at a high price.

The pigeon market does not have unlimited supply. If you are lucky, you can buy food, but if you are unlucky, you can't buy any at all.

Xu Damao’s mountain products do not require tickets and can be kept for a long time. They are rare and valuable things, and the third uncle also wants to get more.

The two old men discussed for a long time and decided that without a witness, the charge of molesting the girl could not be established, so they just punished Xu Damao and let it go.

The main problem now is beating, and we need to appease Lou Xiaoe.

"Xu Damao was wrong in this matter. No matter what, he shouldn't have hit someone."

"Xu Damao has also realized his mistake, so we should give him a chance."

"Xu Damao apologized to Lou Xiao'e now and promised that such a thing would not happen again. If it happens again, call the police and let them arrest him directly."

Xu Damao quickly promised that it would not happen again.

"Xu Damao will be punished by having to clean the compound for a month."

Now Lou Xiao'e still has hope for Xu Damao, and wonders how much fun Xu Damao is having in the countryside.

I don't want my parents to know about this.

I agreed with the two uncles' handling of the matter.

When Sha Zhu saw how things were handled so lightly, he wanted to resist, but was glared at by the Second Uncle.

With the help of the two uncles, Xu Damao managed to escape the disaster. Seeing that there was nothing fun to watch, everyone went back home.

Ran Qiuye took Lou Xiaoe back home and was comforting her.

Xu Damao didn't come to look for them either. He was at home getting some wine to give to the two old men.

Xu Damao is really particular. If you do things for him, he will really give you a gift.

With one bottle of Xifeng liquor for each family, Xu Damao can be said to have invested a lot.

A bottle of Xifeng liquor costs two yuan, and two bottles cost four yuan.

After sending the children off, Xu Damao did not go home but went straight out of the courtyard.

Xu Damao went out to find someone to take revenge on Sha Zhu. Today Sha Zhu kept adding fuel to the fire, so he knew that this matter was related to Sha Zhu. It was very likely that Sha Zhu was trying to bully Xu Damao.

Xu Damao couldn't tolerate that and was determined to take revenge on Sha Zhu.

Although Xu Damao doesn't look like a good person, he knows a lot of people, even some gangsters.

This time, Xu Damao was looking for a gangster named Zhang San, who had several younger brothers under him.

They met while gambling, and Xu Damao also lost several dollars.

That's how we met.

Compared to Xu Damao, Sha Zhu was extremely happy. After scheming against Xu Damao, he was still very happy and went out to cook a good meal.

The wages were fined and the living standards dropped.

I haven’t eaten good food for a long time, so I’m going out to have a good meal to replenish my energy.

Xu Damao found Zhang San and asked him to beat up Sha Zhu for five dollars.

Zhang San brought a few of his brothers to the outskirts of the courtyard, waiting for Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu didn't know that he was being targeted and was still eating his meat and drinking his wine.

After half an hour of waiting, Sha Zhu finally came back. He was drunk and dazed, and his walk was a little crooked. It seemed that he had drunk a lot.

Xu Damao said something to Zhang San, and then Zhang San brought his men to follow behind and put a sack directly on Sha Zhu's head.

Sha Zhu was enjoying himself when he suddenly felt dark, and then he started getting punched and kicked.

People like Zhang San are not at all ambiguous when they take action.

He beat Shazhu so hard that he cried out in pain.

Now Sha Zhu can only hold his head. The quality of this sack is too good and Sha Zhu can’t break free.

Xu Damao ran away when he saw Sha Zhu. He didn't want people to suspect that he did it.

This place is very close to the Siheyuan, and Sha Zhu's howling soon alarmed the people in the Siheyuan, and the noise in the Siheyuan alarmed Zhang San and others.

Zhang San and others retreated immediately.

Everyone only saw their backgrounds and didn't see their fronts at all.

Seeing that there was a person in the sack, several people immediately took the person out.

At this time, Shazhu's nose and face were swollen and he looked so miserable.

This made the old man very sad. If Sha Zhu got into an accident, he would have no one to take care of him in his old age.

An old man immediately stepped forward to check the situation.
