I am doing well in the Siheyuan

"We've arrived at our destination, Mr. Li, would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

"No need. There are still many things to deal with over there, so I won't bother you anymore."

"Okay, then take your time."

After waving goodbye to the people in the car, Xu Damao walked into the gate of the courtyard, reeking of alcohol.

The steel rolling mill had just finished a day's work, and many people in the alley witnessed this scene.

"Hey, Brother Xu, whose car did you take back here just now?"

"Yan Jiefang? Get out of the way. This is none of your business."

Facing Yan Jiefang who stopped him and asked him questions, Xu Damao looked displeased, and the strong smell of alcohol emanating from his body made Yan Jiefang frown.

Despite this, he was still curious about what had just happened.

You have to know that Xu Damao had returned from the countryside before, with a bad record on his record. He was an unemployed vagrant and seemed to lack confidence among the crowd.

Now he returned in glory in a jeep, and Yan Jiefang couldn't help but become suspicious.

"Brother Xu, Brother Xu, please tell me where you are making your fortune now?"

Yan Jiefang stared with eyes wide open, waiting for an answer, while Xu Damao glanced at him with drunken eyes: "Why do you think I have to tell you if I want to? Hiccup——"

After a burp, Xu Damao staggered towards the backyard. After a few steps, his steps became unsteady and he almost fell.

"Be careful. How much alcohol have you drunk? Let me help you go back."

Yan Jiefang immediately stepped forward to support him. Xu Damao, under the influence of alcohol, said incoherently: "You still have some conscience. Let me tell you, if this deal goes through, I can make this much money!"

As he spoke, Xu Damao stretched out five fingers and gestured in front of Yan Jiefang.

Yan Jiefang was dumbfounded: "Five hundred yuan?"

"Five hundred? Look at you!" Xu Damao sneered, "Do you think it's five thousand yuan?"

Yan Jiefang felt a little guilty when he said this number.

After all, for an ordinary person like him who only earns a few dozen yuan a month, he may only be able to save this much money after working hard all his life.

"Five thousand? Humph, to tell you the truth, it's fifty thousand!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Damao lost consciousness due to the effects of alcohol.

Fortunately, Yan Jiefang was there to support him.

However, hearing this number, Yan Jiefang felt dizzy even though he hadn't drunk any alcohol.

"Fifty thousand? Brother Xu, please explain clearly, what kind of business can make so much money?"

Getting no response, Yan Jiefang could only carefully help Xu Damao back to the backyard.

This scene happened to be seen by Qin Huairu.

"Hey, how come Yan Jiefang is hanging out with Xu Damao?"

He Yuzhu, who was cooking, stopped what he was doing when he heard this.

"Is there such a thing?"

"I just saw Xu Damao at the gate of the courtyard. He seemed to be coming back in someone else's car."

Xiaodang walked into the room and picked up the steamed bun on the table. What he said attracted Banggeng's attention.

"Car? Does Xu Damao know such a high-level leader?"

"Forget about them. How is Banggeng's work going? Is there any news from the factory?"

“I am just an ordinary skilled worker, and my words don’t count in the factory.

Banggeng didn’t even graduate from elementary school, so it’s not easy for him to get a job in a factory.”

"Go ask Uncle Yi for help. He's an eighth-level fitter, so he must be able to talk some sense into it."

"I have already contacted Uncle Yi, but it is useless. The leaders of the factory were all promoted by Ye Ming."

Before Ye Ming got into trouble, he had the final say in the steel mill and Bang Geng had no chance to enter.

Although he has fallen now, the influence is still there, especially since his final punishment has not yet been announced.

"But don't be too anxious. The investigation will probably be finished soon in the next two days.

Once Ye Ming goes to prison, most of the leaders in the factory will probably suffer as well.

By then, with an old man helping to speak up and some gifts to smooth things over, it probably won’t be a big problem for Banggeng to enter the factory.”

After hearing this, Qin Huairu felt quite dissatisfied with Ye Ming.

It was his words that caused Banggeng to drop out of school. Many years have passed, and his family is still under his oppression.

Bang Geng was also furious as he listened nearby.

"I see you don't care at all about my job search."

After saying this, Banggeng walked out.

"Hey, kid, why didn't I pay attention to him? During this period of time, I have looked for all the leaders in the factory who can speak with me..."

Seeing Bang Geng leave without looking back, He Yuzhu couldn't help but complain in front of Qin Huairu.

"Dad, my brother is just like that. Don't bother with him. He's been feeling really depressed lately."

Xiaodang joined in the persuasion.

He Yuzhu did not haggle with Banggeng.

Qin Huairu has not been able to conceive for a long time, and there are many people who are pointing fingers at her.

They still rely on Banggeng for support in the future, so He Yuzhu has done his best for this big family.

The next morning, Yan Jiefang was waiting in front of the courtyard gate with two white steamed buns in his pocket.

Bang Geng happened to see him and walked over curiously.

"Yan Jiefang, who are you waiting for here?"

"Mind your own business."

Yan Jiefang didn't give Bang Geng a good look and continued to stare at the direction of the courtyard gate.

Bang Geng knew that this must be related to what happened yesterday evening, so he shamelessly asked, "Hey, are you waiting for Xu Damao?"

"Tsk, why don't you know how to read people's expressions? If you're told to leave, just leave now!"

Yan Jiefang was obviously unhappy.

The fewer people who know about this, the better.

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Xu Damao just walked out of the yard.

Without paying attention to the stick, Yan Jiefang walked forward with a smile on his face.

"Brother Xu, did you have a good rest last night? This is what I brought back to you!"

While eagerly taking credit, he handed over the two white buns in his hand.

Banggeng knew that Yan Jiefang was not the kind of person who would not do anything without a profit.

I don't usually see them getting along so well.

There must be something fishy going on.

Taking the steamed bun, Xu Damao frowned and thought for a moment.

"It seems to be true, thank you."

"Hey, Brother Xu, why are you being so polite to me?"

"Anything else? If not, I'll leave first."

"Hey, Brother Xu, please wait a moment. I really want to discuss something with you."

Although Xu Damao looked impatient, he did not leave immediately.

"If you have something to say, please tell me now. I'm in a hurry to meet a client and I don't have time to stay here with you."

"Brother Xu, can we talk for a moment?"

Yan Jiefang glanced at Bang Geng next to him, obviously not intending to let him share the secret.

Xu Damao was worried that the people in the courtyard didn't know about this. Now was a great opportunity and he would not miss it.

So, he decided to continue acting and do his best.

"If you have something to say, just say it. It's not like you've done anything wrong. Are you afraid that others might hear you?"

Yan Jiefang hesitated for a moment. Since Xu Damao didn't care, he didn't care about anything else.

In front of Banggeng, he told the whole story.

"Brother Xu, didn't you mention a big deal worth 50,000 yuan yesterday?"
