Zhang Amei's eyes widened when she heard what Yiming's mother said, but she quickly smiled and said, "I was just asking!"
Yiming's mother said, "I was just saying!"
Faced with the situation, Zhang Amei naturally couldn't ask any more questions, so she said, "Sister-in-law, I'll go back now!"
"Um!"
Zhang Amei carried her things and headed home.
As soon as she entered the house, Wu Jianguo asked, "How is it? How is it? Are you going to give us the plate?"
Zhang Amei said to Wu Jianguo in an annoyed tone, "Here, go check it out!"
"Really? That's great!"
Wu Jianguo asked with great interest, "How much will you give us? Twelve thousand five?"
Zhang Amei also imitated Yiming's mother by holding up five fingers.
Upon seeing this, Wu Jianguo's smile vanished, but he still asked, unwilling to give up, "What does five fingers mean?"
"They said fifty thousand!"
"Forget it then, we don't have that much money. Let's keep this eight thousand for Xiaojun to use for getting married!"
"Eight thousand? What eight thousand?"
Just then, two people entered through the door. As soon as Wu Jianguo saw them, he immediately felt a headache coming on.
These two men are Erlaitou, who intercepted Zhang Min and her brother last night, and his companion Datou.
Wu Jianguo looked at the two of them and said, "What are you two doing here? You're not welcome in our home!"
Erlaitou pulled a dagger from his waist and stabbed it into the door next to him, saying, "This is no longer a matter of whether you welcome me or not!"
At this moment, Zhang Min also came out with a kitchen knife. She glared fiercely at Er Lai Tou and said, "What do you want? Haven't you been arrested enough by the police?"
Erlaitou pointed at Zhang Min and said, "It's all because of you, you brat, that we lost our jobs and were fined two thousand yuan. So we've come to settle accounts with you!"
“That was sent by my brother-in-law Liu Jian. You should go find him, why are you coming to us?”
"Why? Why do you say why? Your brother Xiaojun was pulling on me, which made me pull the trigger and fire the gun. I never intended to shoot; I just wanted to scare you. Since the shot was fired, you should be held responsible!"
Fearing things would escalate, Wu Jianguo said, "How exactly will you take responsibility? Show me what you're going to do!"
"The police station fined us four thousand yuan, which your family should pay. If you don't, I'll sleep at your house and eat at your house!"
Wu Jianguo glared at Er Laitou and said, "Four thousand? Get lost, I'll give you an egg!"
When Erlaitou saw that he wouldn't give it to him, he sat down on the bench next to him and stopped moving.
Seeing that things were getting a bit complicated, Wu Jianguo said to Zhang Min, "Go, tell your sister to deal with these two guys!"
Zhang Min handed the kitchen knife to Zhang Amei, who then strode over to the kindergarten across the street. As soon as she entered the yard, she called out, "Sister, sister, big sister!"
Wu Shanshan, who was in the bathroom, came out pulling up her pants and said, "What are you doing? Why are you shouting like that? The kids are studying!"
"Sister, you'd better go check on him! That lazybones is staying at our house and won't leave!"
"Damn it, he's been hanging around my house! I'm going to shovel his head off!"
After saying this, he picked up the shovel next to the toilet and walked outside!
Liu Jian, who was in the office, also ran out and walked up to Zhang Min, asking, "What's wrong, Xiao Min?"
"That scoundrel has gone to our house to cause trouble!"
Liu Jian stamped his foot and said, "These two bastards are always causing me trouble. Come on, come on, take me to see them."
So Wu Shanshan walked ahead with a shovel, while Zhang Min and Liu Jian ran behind her.
Zhuang Tunan, who was sitting and talking next to the newsstand, and Song Ying and her husband both looked at them. Zhuang Tunan asked Zhang Min, "Xiao Min, what's wrong?"
Zhang Min quickly waved her hand at Zhuang Tunan with a smile and said, "It's alright, Brother Tunan, you guys continue!"
Song Ying said with some concern, "Wu Feng, hurry up and go see what's going on? Don't let things get out of hand!"
"good!"
Wu Shanshan stormed to the door and shouted inside, "You rascal, get out here! You think you're so tough now, daring to bully my family!"
Erlaitou sat on the bench, motionless, and looked at Wu Shanshan, saying, "Sister-in-law, go back! This has nothing to do with you, don't get involved!"
"None of my business? You're talking nonsense! This is my dad's house. It has nothing to do with me. Am I not my dad's son?!"
"Once a daughter is married, she's no longer part of the family; once she steps out of this house, she has nothing to do with it anymore!"
"Get lost! If you've got the guts, come out here and I'll smash you to death with a shovel!"
Liu Jian, standing next to Wu Shanshan, said, "You rascal, are you still going to listen to me?"
"What's the use of listening to you? You're no longer an official or a hat. From today onwards, we're both the same, just ordinary people!"
“Even though I’ve lost my job, I still keep my word sometimes. Didn’t you want to sell the yard to pay the fine? I’ve found someone to buy it for you, how about that?”
"Sure! Anyone want it for 100,000?"
"I'm being too kind. Your yard, apart from being a bit big, is so small you can count every brick and tile. 100,000? Bah!"
"Then how much do you want?"
"Five thousand at most!"
"Okay, deal!"
Erlaitou stood up and walked outside. After getting close to Liu Jian, he said, "When are you going to pay me, Er Liu?"
Liu Jian was starting to regret it, because he had told Zhou Chengzhi that it would cost at most 2,000, but now he had blurted out 5,000, and he would have to pay another 3,000!
The thought of losing money made Liu Jian's heart ache. He said to Er Laitou, "Brother, I overestimated you. How about four thousand?"
Erlai glared and said, "Get lost! How can you take back what you've said? Five thousand is five thousand, not a penny less!"
"Sell it to me for ten thousand?"
It was Lin Wufeng who spoke. As soon as he said it, everyone was stunned. Ten thousand was a considerable sum of money at that time. Take Wu Jianguo's eight thousand, for example. The two of them worked hard for three months and only earned a little over a thousand per month on average.
Erlaitou was so excited he almost cried. He looked at Lin Wufeng and said, "Engineer Lin, are you serious?"
Lin Wufeng nodded and said, "A real man's word is his bond!"
Erlaitou knelt down before Lin Wufeng with a thud, tears streaming down his face, and said, "When are you going to pay me?"
"The ownership can be transferred at any time!"
Do you know why Lin Wufeng spent so much money? Because Lin Wufeng had been to Erlaitou's courtyard before. It was a very large and spacious courtyard, nearly 200 square meters in area.
Lin Wufeng thought that since Song Ying didn't want to go back to Guangzhou, he should find a way to do something in this area. Erlaitou's yard was so big, it would be a good place to build a small supermarket.
When Liu Jian saw this situation, he stopped, because he had promised Zhou Chengzhi to take over the courtyard. If Lin Wufeng reached an agreement with Erlaitou, wouldn't his plan fall through?
Seeing Lin Wufeng help Erlaitou up, the two of them were about to walk outside.
Liu Jian blocked their way and pleaded with Er Laitou, "Brother, can I offer six thousand?"
Erlai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Liu Jian's arm and said, "Get out of my way! Engineer Lin is offering 10,000, and you're offering 6,000, that's almost half the amount. Do you think I'm happy about that? Do you think I'm stupid?"
Liu Jian pleaded again, "Brother, we're brothers! I can give you eight thousand, right? Eight thousand!"
Erlai glared at Liu Jian and said, "Get lost!"
"Ten thousand, I'll put up ten thousand too, okay, brother!"
Erlaitou was probably really angry this time. He yelled at Liu Jian, "Liu Jian, let me tell you! Don't even mention giving me 10,000, even if you give me 50,000, I won't sell to you. Do you know why? Because you're too greedy!"
Seeing Erlaitou follow Lin Wufeng out of the alley, Liu Jian stood there jumping up and down, crying out, "What are we going to do? What are we going to do?"
