Sister-in-law Yu was furious that he dared to say such things. "Second son! Don't listen to his nonsense! The house isn't even his! Who cares if he agrees or not!"
Zhou Mingli gave Sister-in-law Yu a reassuring look.
He said, "You want this house back?"
"What do you mean, 'take it back'! This is my house!"
Zhou Mingli smiled faintly and said, "The owner of this house has already sold it to me. If you want it, I can sell it to you."
"House prices here are getting higher and higher, so I won't ask you for more, fifty thousand."
Zhou Mingli gestured with his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "Not a penny less, not a penny less."
The man cursed, "You swindler!"
Zhou Mingli put his arm around him like a good brother, but the strength of his arm pressed him down so that he had to bend over. "You don't really think you can take the house away by throwing a tantrum, do you?"
"I bought this house with my hard-earned money. You think you can take it away by just talking and making a fuss?"
"What unrealistic dreams are you having? Hmm?"
Zhou Mingli smiled and patted his face, "Should I 'invite' you to leave?"
He appeared to be doing nothing, but only he could feel that Zhou Mingli's hand, which was holding him, was tightly gripping his neck.
Get close to the most vulnerable parts that make people feel most threatened.
The unexpected danger made the man tremble.
As soon as Zhou Mingli let go of him, he squeezed out of the crowd without daring to breathe.
Zhou Mingli remained calm and said to the people standing at the door watching the commotion, "I'm sorry to have troubled you all to make this trip. Please don't stand here anymore; it's quite hot today. Go home now."
"Xiao Zhou, that guy has come more than once or twice. Your wife has been brought in twice to talk to him. I don't think he's so easy to persuade. You'd better be careful."
A cold glint flashed in Zhou Mingli's eyes, but he quickly withdrew it and smiled in agreement.
After seeing the people off, Zhou Mingli helped the old master down.
"The factory isn't finished yet. This is my house, Master Yun. Why don't you stay here for now, and we'll move over once the factory is built?"
Master Yun is fifty-three years old this year, but he's not so old that he can't walk. He doesn't care where he lives and says, "Okay."
The east wing of this house is all used for storing goods. He made a phone call and had someone clean up the rooms in the west wing for Master Yun to live in.
The bright and spacious courtyard house has two fruit trees planted inside, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Zhou Mingli led Master Yun to the main room in the west wing. "You can stay in this house. Wangfujing outside is very lively. You don't need to cook. Just buy some food first."
"You should also try some of the local delicacies in Beijing."
What's impossible about that?
Master Yun readily agreed, but he also said, "You have to make sure I'm comfortable here, and don't let any annoying things bother me all the time."
His wife and son have both died, and he has lived a miserable life for several years. He doesn't want to be held back by these things in the future.
Zhou Mingli said, "Don't worry, I will handle it."
Master Yun nodded and went inside to rest.
Zhou Mingli asked Huang Zheyue to move Master Yun's things into the side room before he went to find Sister-in-law Yu to find out what was going on.
When they bought this house, they knew that people were coming here to cause trouble, and all they wanted was a share of the profits.
The couple was so upset that they sold the house at a low price and moved out quickly without staying any longer.
When those people came for the first time, Jiang Ci happened to run into them. Jiang Ci dismissed them with a few words and they behaved themselves for a while. Unexpectedly, more than a month after he left, they came to his door again.
Sister-in-law Yu didn't hold back and told him what had happened while he was away from home.
“This man had come here several times before we found him! He just kept loitering outside and never went in. When we were loading radios onto the truck to sell in the county, he would just stand there watching! So we ignored him.”
"Who would have thought that one time we would discover him climbing over the wall, intending to steal the radio inside! Just then, Xiao Ci came over to help during her break and caught him red-handed!"
"Xiao Ci took him directly to the police station. Well, he denied stealing anything, saying that the house belonged to him and that he was coming home. That guy was shameless and threw a tantrum!"
Of course, Jiang Ci was not someone who could be manipulated by a rogue. She immediately took the house sale contract that the previous homeowner had signed and gave it to the police.
The police reprimanded the man, but since no real damage was caused, they couldn't sentence him.
After that, the man frequently came to their door, making a huge fuss, indirectly criticizing them, and even complaining that their radio was faulty and had no sound.
They did it like killing two birds with one stone, and then ran away. Sister-in-law Yu and Xu San were furious.
That person has ruined my business so badly it's almost impossible to continue.
Having no other option, Sister-in-law Yu went to talk to Jiang Ci about it again.
After listening, Jiang Ci said, "You guys continue with your work, don't worry about it."
Sister-in-law Yu had no idea what Jiang Ci was planning, so she could only continue working anxiously.
"Several days later, Xiao Ci came over and asked me if someone was stealing our business."
"Back then, there were indeed people stealing our business. They also sold radios, and they were even cheaper than us. All the business in that area was taken away. If you sell radios at a low price, they're worthless, so we went to more distant places."
"After hearing this, Xiao Ci somehow managed to get the people competing with us to reveal that they had stolen radios from a state-owned factory and were selling them. Those people were all arrested! The factory staff wanted to take back the radios they had sold, but how could those people agree to that? That's how this incident started."
"Xiao Ci told me to mention when we sell them that they were definitely not stolen or robbed, but legitimate Southern radios. Our business is picking up again, and now we've almost sold out."
“I don’t know what happened to that person, he stopped coming, but he came back a few days ago, insisting that he wanted the house.”
“We ignored him, and now he’s come to our door again today.”
Sister-in-law Yu was almost driven mad by that person.
After listening to what Sister-in-law Yu had to say, Zhou Mingli had a general idea of what was going on.
Someone else was selling radios and stealing their business. That person was probably in cahoots with the person stealing their business. They were deliberately coming here to curse and shout, disrupting Sister-in-law Yu and Xu San's rhythm and preventing them from doing business properly.
The group of people who stole and sold the radios were caught. When he comes back, it's probably not for the house, but to get another share of the money.
Zhou Mingli nodded. "I understand."
“I’ll handle this, sister-in-law, don’t be angry.”
Sister-in-law Yu nodded, "Now that you're all back, what do I have to be afraid of?"
In her mind, the second son and Xiao Ci were both people who were destined for great things, and those petty people who were greedy for cheap things would never have an easy time in the future!
