After rebirth, dominate the courtyard

In the once flourishing city of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, an unprecedented storm is slowly brewing. At this moment, in a quiet courtyard deep in the ancient city, an old couple is sitting in front of a stone table. The setting sun shines obliquely, and the golden afterglow sprinkles on their wrinkled faces, but it can't hide their deep worries.

\"The world is like a game of chess, each game is new and surprising. What is happening in this courtyard is really not something I should get involved in." The old man frowned in deep thought, his words revealing his deep worry about the unknown future.

The old woman heard this and sighed, "There are few people who understand me, who will listen when the string breaks?" A hint of helplessness flashed across her eyes, but she also understood her husband's considerations. In this troubled world, how many people can truly transcend the mundane world and control their own destiny?

Not everyone in the courtyard was as cautious as they were. Some of them were strong and healthy, and were originally farmers who did heavy labor. After hearing the rumors from afar, they couldn't help but feel excited. After all, this was a rare opportunity - the legendary high reward was enough to flood their hearts with hope and inspire the determination and courage to change their fate.

\"There are so many people here today, what's the commotion?" The deaf old lady asked curiously while wiping her lips with a faded old cloth in her hand. Although she is old and her hearing has decreased slightly, she is still very concerned about the dynamics around her. It is a kind of keen insight into life and a tenacious struggle against fate.

At this time, a woman quietly pushed the door open outside the courtyard. It was the famous Qin Yunli. While everyone was making a fuss, Miss Qin had already gone out to see what was going on. She hurried back.

But he brought a shocking news: "Don't worry, please listen to me. I just heard that there is a good job with a very generous salary, one hundred gold and silver a day." After he finished speaking, there was silence, and everyone was shocked. In that era of scarcity and hardship, such a high salary was undoubtedly like a sweet rain from heaven, which made people excited.

The person who was most shocked by the news was Xu Damao, who seemed to be doing nothing but was actually under great pressure. Holding a steamed bun in his hand, his eyes sparkled with desire, "Such good news, is it true? What is your job? How can you earn over a hundred dollars a day?" His words were filled with yearning for an unknown job and a deep hope to change his circumstances.

Qin Yunli said slowly: "Don't worry or doubt. I just heard your discussion in the courtyard. This recruitment is for the purpose of innovating the steel mill machinery. If I am not mistaken, it must be the improvement of the Red Star Steel Mill machinery. It is the skill that the repair craftsmen need. As the saying goes: repairing bridges and roads requires ingenuity, and smelting iron and casting gold rely on the fine casting of good craftsmen."

This description made Xu Damao hesitate and disappointed. If he joined the project, wouldn't he be busy all day long? And when the project was completed, what would he be in? This job didn't seem to be a permanent choice, but might lead to instability and worry in his future life.

\"Brother Xu, don't think about it. Such physical labor is not suitable for you. It's better to stick to the kitchen and enjoy the good food and peace." Qin Yunli teased, and her words implied her approval of her thought that Xu Lang should choose a safe strategy. After careful consideration, Miss Qin also didn't want her husband to fall into the hard labor. In the long run, the kitchen job might be a wise way.

"I heard that Mr. Li has taken over the important position of Red Star Steel Rolling today. He is indeed talented." The deaf grandmother spoke earnestly, turning to the disappointed Xu Lang and said: "If there is an opportunity tonight, I will ask my grandson to present a portion to you."

Hearing this, Qin Yunli was secretly delighted. If Xu Lang could really make it, his family would benefit greatly. But immediately, a trace of doubt crept up her brows: "Given the closeness between Mr. Li and my grandmother, it may not be easy to do so?" Obviously, in her heart,

There are considerable concerns about whether the young factory director can follow the advice of his elders at home. You know, in this intricate network of power, every move must be made with caution.

The deaf grandmother, however, was in high spirits: "Don't be suspicious, grandson. You must always try in life to know the result." Her voice was gentle but persuasive, like the warm sun in winter, giving people endless courage and comfort.

After hearing this, although Xu Damao was still a little hesitant and disapproving, he finally stopped being stubborn after being persuaded by his elders. He turned around and took his deaf grandmother with him, walked into the bustling courtyard, and wanted to reminisce with his old friend.

Jia Zhang's jealous and powerless eyes followed the receding figure, feeling both envious and jealous - she herself had been forced to stay in bed for many days due to her illness, and had lost the opportunity to hang out with her neighbors.

"Hello, everyone!" As the deaf grandmother and Xu Lang reappeared in the courtyard, everyone was either surprised or happy. After all, in that ever-changing world, every return would bring different surprises. In the afternoon, when everything returned to normal, everyone's discussion once again revolved around that tempting topic. At this moment, Xu Lang no longer had any enthusiasm in his heart.

, even the curiosity and respect for the deaf grandmother disappeared. In his eyes, this old lady was just an old and weak woman who only thought about various trivial matters every day, which was really hard to arouse interest.

As soon as Xu Lang got home, he saw that Qin Jingru had already prepared a warm and delicious dinner for him. "Eat it quickly," she said. "Now the compound has caused a sensation because of this incident. At first, I was wondering what kind of good job it was. But now it seems that

It's just rough labor." Miss Qin's words were slightly bitter, and she obviously disdained this kind of labor-intensive work. "Indeed, I will not devote myself to such hard work. In comparison, the profits from showing movies are more substantial and can be enjoyed for a long time until all steel mills are transformed." Xu Dalang sneered.

"You are truly a wise man! It is indeed desirable to be able to earn a solid income from easy work." Miss Qin exclaimed with admiration.

However, at this moment, in Xu Lang's heart, the dream of unlimited desire for power and wealth is still burning. "If I can deepen my friendship with Li Tianliang in the future, I will surely achieve both fame and fortune. This is what I pursue the most.
