Siheyuan: Super Comprehension

"Hey, hello, Third Uncle. I'm Xiao Cui, the new one who just moved here. I'm unfamiliar with the place, so I wanted to get to know more people. As the Third Uncle, I heard that you have a great reputation in the courtyard, so I came here specially to visit you."

A day later, Cui Dake went straight to Yan Bugui's house carrying bags of things.

"Haha...you are the new resident living next to the old man, right? I've heard of you. I heard that you are already the leader of the publicity department at such a young age. You are indeed young and promising."

When Yan Bugui saw what Cui Dake was holding, his eyes lit up like a mouse seeing rice.

Wow, it was actually an old hen, a pound of eggs, and even a small bottle of soju.

This is really a big deal.

Although Yan Bugui was puzzled, wondering why this guy came to his house with so many things, his hands did not slow down.

While saying hello, he naturally put the gift in his hand, as if he was afraid that the other party would not be willing to give it.

Cui Dake felt a little scalp-tingling.

It turns out that the name of Iron Abacus is well-deserved.

Whenever something appears in front of Yan Bugui, it is absolutely impossible to take it back intact.

But it doesn't matter. He came here this time actually to ask Yan Bugui for help.

As everyone knows, Yan Bugui is the know-it-all in the Siheyuan.

There was nothing he didn't know about all the gossip, and he was also an old resident of the courtyard.

There is absolutely no problem in asking him for information.

But Yan Bugui is a man who can do nothing but plucking feathers from a passing goose. If you want to ask him for help, you have to give him some benefits.

So Cui Dake also invested a lot of money.

He simply bought an old hen, a pound of eggs, and a bottle of liquor and went straight to Yan Bugui's house.

Just to get some information about Yi Zhonghai.

Yes, this time he came for Yi Zhonghai.

After all, the old guy had driven him away so ruthlessly last time.

That's not giving any face at all.

Even though I'm a newcomer, that doesn't mean I can't participate in your election, right?

But the old fox rejected it without even thinking about it, without giving any face at all.

It seemed that they felt that a newcomer like Cui Dake was not qualified to participate in this event and should just be a spectator.

Cui Dake was not convinced and he had to give it a try.

The old fox couldn't get through this way because he didn't find this guy's weakness. As long as he found this guy's weakness, he would have a way to deal with him.

As a villain, he would not confront others head-on, but would compete in another way.

Yan Bugui was the method he chose.

Soon, Cui Dake was invited into Yan Bugui's home.

Yan Jiecheng was always away from home, which gave the two of them a lot of space.

Yan Bugui seemed to be afraid that Cui Dake would go back on his word, so he quickly asked the third aunt to take the gifts back to the kitchen, and then he turned to the new Black Potato with a smile.

He is just like this. No matter what the other party wants or whether the thing can be done, if there is a gift, he will definitely accept it first.

Then we'll talk about other things.

After all, you have accepted the gift, and it is difficult for others to ask for it back.

Yan Bugui has tried and succeeded every time over the years.

Now is naturally no exception.

After arranging the equipment, Yan Bugui also looked at Cui Dake and said, "Tell me, Xiao Cui, you must have something to ask me, right? But I have to make it clear first, there are some things I can help with, but if you can't help, there is nothing I can do."

But before that, he also found a way out for himself.

Another meaning of this sentence is that I accept your gift, but as for whether I can help you, that is another matter.

Well, he is really thick-skinned, otherwise he can’t be called Yan Laoxi.

Cui Dake's mouth twitched. He didn't expect that Yan Bugui was so thick-skinned.

The gift was received very quickly, but although this attitude seemed open and honest, it actually concealed a trap.

As expected, there are no honest people in this yard, they are all very shrewd.

The shrewd Yi Zhonghai, the upturned nostril Liu Haizhong, and the calculating Yan Bugui.

The despicable Xu Damao and He Yuzhu who is like the devil come back.

Thinking of the people he had met, Cui Dake felt a chill in his heart.

Damn... How could this ordinary courtyard hide so many extraordinary people?

None of them is a simple character.

It's very different from those mud-legged people in my hometown whose feet are covered with cow dung.

They all have something.

None of them are easy to get along with.

Fortunately, Cui Dake is not an easy person to deal with.

If that's the case, he won't hide it anymore.

"It's nothing, actually. I'm new here, so I want you to help me get to know the people in the courtyard and their situations, so that I don't accidentally offend them in the future. It would be even better if you could also tell me what's wrong with those people, maybe I can help."

Cui Dake's words were full of honesty and sincerity. From the sound of it, it seemed that he just wanted to familiarize himself with the situation in the courtyard as soon as possible.

When faced with residents who are in difficulty, we will also try to help.

He seems like a good-natured man who is willing to sacrifice himself for justice.

"Oh...I see. That's fine. I didn't expect you to be so kind-hearted. If that's the case, I'll say everything I need to say."

Yan Bugui also felt relieved.

It seemed like she was just chatting with him about gossip, so he finally felt relieved.

To be honest, if you really asked him to do something extremely difficult, Yan Bugui would have closed his shop long ago.

He already knew what kind of man he was.

I will never get involved in things that I shouldn't get involved in.

Lessons from the past, the teacher behind the car.

Now Cui Dake is carrying a lot of bags, just wanting to know the gossip in the yard, which is a very easy thing to do.

Apart from anything else, Yan Bugui is quite knowledgeable about gossip.

"In that case, let me first tell you about the more famous people in the courtyard, such as the old man..."

"This old man Yi used to be the most prestigious and experienced man in our courtyard, but unfortunately he offended someone, causing his prestige to plummet. Now he can only be ranked second, but he is still very remarkable. Although his methods are sometimes rather dirty, this has also brought him a lot of reputation. If you want to say that there is any problem with the old man, it is that it is a pity that he is already fifty years old and has no children. This is his regret."

Once Yan Bugui started talking about gossip, he had no control over what he said and would just talk nonstop.

Cui Dake's eyes became brighter after hearing this.

From these gossips, he seemed to have learned something very important.

Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai, it turns out you have such a weakness. Let me show you how I, Old Cui, will deal with you.

Cui Dake suddenly had a bold idea in his mind.
