Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

The next day, Chen Rufeng deliberately created some topics in the yard. He first found a few young and strong guys in the yard. These people usually love to compete, especially in physical work. Chen Rufeng knew that as long as these people were mobilized, their fighting spirit would drive the atmosphere of the whole yard.

He first found Lao Wang's youngest son, Xiao Liu. This young man usually had a hot temper, and what he hated most was someone showing off in the yard. Chen Rufeng knew that arousing his fighting spirit would be the first step to breaking the current deadlock.

"Liu Zi, I heard that you have been working very hard on the construction site recently. Your physical strength is beyond reproach." Chen Rufeng deliberately spoke in a tone of praise, but there was a hint of provocation in his words.

When Xiao Liu heard this, he immediately perked up, "That's right, Brother Rufeng, my arms and legs are not grown in vain, I carry cement and bricks every day, and I have never met an opponent."

Chen Rufeng smiled and pretended to be casual: "That silly Zhu has been unconvinced recently. I think he has hooked up with someone outside. He is domineering in the yard every day. Who dares to mess with him?"

Xiao Liu's face changed when he heard this, and he was obviously aroused by his competitive spirit. "That kid Shazhu, can he bully others just because he is strong? No matter how strong he is, he can't be stronger than me, Xiao Liu! Brother Rufeng, do you think I can let him run wild in our yard?"

Chen Rufeng deliberately showed an awkward look, "Liu Zi, I also know that you are capable, but Sha Zhu is not alone now, he has someone backing him up. If you insist on taking it alone, I'm afraid..."

"I'm not afraid of him!" Xiao Liu immediately patted his chest and said proudly, "Brother Rufeng, don't worry, I'm Xiao Liu, I'm not a pushover. If he dares to play tricks in our yard, I'll make sure he knows how powerful I am!"

Chen Rufeng was secretly satisfied when he saw this, knowing that the time was right. He then used the same method to find a few other competitive young men and aroused their fighting spirit one by one. Soon, the flames of not admitting defeat were ignited in the hearts of these young men, and they began to call people around the yard, saying that they wanted to teach Sha Zhu a lesson.

The atmosphere of the whole courtyard began to change. Those who were usually cautious and conservative were inevitably affected by the excitement of the young people. Middle-aged women with soft hearts, such as Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhang, began to talk about it. Their original sympathy for Sha Zhu was gradually replaced by a new emotion - they did not want to see their family members being bullied by a bully like Sha Zhu, and they did not want others to look down on them.

Chen Rufeng stood in a corner of the courtyard, silently observing all this, feeling secretly relieved. He knew that his strategy had worked. After everyone's competitive spirit was aroused, the original fear and anxiety began to dissipate, replaced by a sense of collective power - they were no longer afraid of Sha Zhu's conspiracy, but were ready to meet this challenge and defend the dignity of the courtyard.

However, Chen Rufeng also knew that arousing everyone's fighting spirit was only the first step, and more specific actions were needed to consolidate this force. Sha Zhu's conspiracy was still in the dark, and he had to seize the opportunity to find a breakthrough.

At this time, an unexpected news came from the yard. Old Li told Chen Rufeng that someone saw Sha Zhu and a group of people from outside the yard gathering in a small restaurant outside the yard, and they seemed to be plotting something big. This news made Chen Rufeng's heart tighten suddenly, and he realized that the opportunity had come.

Chen Rufeng immediately told Yi Zhonghai the news, and the two discussed and decided to conduct a "counter-reconnaissance" quietly. They found a few young people who were usually smart but not eye-catching, and asked them to pretend to sneak into the restaurant inadvertently to listen to what Sha Zhu and his gang were planning.

As the night deepened, several young people dispersed and slowly approached the restaurant. Their hearts were beating fast, but for the safety of the yard, they suppressed their nervousness and tried to act naturally. Xiao Liu was one of them. He usually spoke quickly, but this time he didn't dare to say much, for fear of exposing his true colors.

Several people quietly waited outside the restaurant for an opportunity to move. Through the window, they saw Sha Zhu talking in a low voice with several people in the corner with serious expressions. Xiao Liu lowered his body, held his breath, and tried to hear the conversation inside clearly.

"...We must act quickly and not let them notice..." These were a few words that Xiao Liu vaguely heard. Although they were vague, they were enough for him to understand that Sha Zhu was planning something big.

When it was late at night and Sha Zhu and the others had dispersed, Xiao Liu and the others quickly left the restaurant and brought the news back to Chen Rufeng. Upon hearing this, Chen Rufeng frowned, and the sense of crisis in his heart became stronger.

"Rufeng, it seems that they are preparing to take action in the near future. We can't wait any longer." Yi Zhonghai said in a low voice, with a hint of calm determination in his eyes.

Chen Rufeng nodded, having already made up his mind. He must take the lead and expose their conspiracy before Sha Zhu and his gang take action.

Chen Rufeng paced back and forth in the yard. Night had fallen and the courtyard gradually became quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs breaking the tranquility of the night. He had just learned that Sha Zhu was plotting something big outside, which made him feel even more depressed. Although he had aroused the competitive spirit of the people in the yard, this emotion was like a double-edged sword. Once out of control, it might bring unpredictable consequences.

"I have stirred up everyone's emotions, but I must calm them down and not let this impulsive power become a weapon to hurt each other." Chen Rufeng thought over and over again, and realized that he needed to act more rationally and calmly. The Siheyuan could not be in chaos, and he had to stabilize the situation.

He decided that he must take immediate measures to calm everyone down from this tense and confrontational mood. He wanted them to understand that although Sha Zhu's conspiracy was terrible, blind impulse would only put him in a bigger predicament.

Chen Rufeng took a deep breath, returned to the house, and picked up an old notebook on the table. This notebook was the result of his hard work over the years, and it recorded what he saw and heard in the courtyard, as well as many experiences and insights from getting along with his neighbors. He opened the notebook, his eyes scanned the familiar handwriting, and a sense of strength gradually surged in his heart.

He knew that he needed to win back everyone's trust, not only by inspiring their fighting spirit, but also by making them understand and feel safe. This was the foundation for the long-term harmony of the Siheyuan, and it was also what he had to defend.

The next day, Chen Rufeng came to the center of the yard early and hung a blackboard in the most conspicuous place.
