Siheyuan: Don’t say I can’t do it

Chapter 89: Unable to buy buns, hired a fool to steam them

After leaving Pigeon City, Chen Luo walked quickly towards the southeast.

In the field of vision of mental power, there were indeed several people following.

He tried turning left and right, and sure enough, they were following him.

He has sold so many goods here, and too many people know that he is a big fat sheep.

Although smart people would think that since he came alone he must have someone to rely on, they would also want to know whether he really has someone to rely on.

Others were completely overwhelmed by the windfall.

The sky was already slightly bright, and Chen Luo's pace was getting faster and faster.

Gradually, these people had to jog to keep up.

Chen Luo walked all the way to the Workers' Stadium and found that there were no newcomers following him. He flashed and disappeared.

In less than a minute, all these people were nailed down and put into the storage space.

He didn't expect that these people had quite a lot of money in their pockets. Just nine people contributed more than 10,000 yuan to him, as well as some coupons.

Chen Luo ran all the way from Gongti to Gulou East Street and saw no less than ten steamed bun shops along the way, but none of them were open.

Chen Luo thought that this should be the so-called darkness before dawn. The famine would be over in three or four months, but these bun shops could no longer hold on.

Chen Luo wanted to buy some buns but couldn't, and felt a little disappointed.

His mood would be affected if there were no buns in the storage space.

After all, buns are not only his favorite, but they are also very effective in attracting women and children.

Chen Luo thought of He Yushui. She definitely knew how to steam buns, but she didn’t have time to do that now.

But I am just idle.

Except for the time he spends cooking at the steel mill, he has very little free time.

Chen Luo thought that the task of steaming the buns could be completely left to Sha Zhu. After all, he was a professional and knew how to steam buns in the old society.

Chen Luo thought that this matter could be accomplished, and planned to go to Sha Zhu to talk about it as soon as he had time.

After returning to the shop on the Drum Tower side, Chen Luo opened the door and went in. He then checked everything upstairs and downstairs in detail and put all the useless things into the storage space.

Chen Luo opened the window on the second floor for ventilation. Hearing a noise in the yard behind the building, he looked down.

It turned out to be the female salesperson from the trust store. She was wearing loose home clothes and was washing by the sink.

Next to her, there was another girl.

This girl looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. She was very pretty and had a fantastic figure. Chen Luo couldn't help but take a second look at her.

Unexpectedly, this girl was quite sensitive. Her eyes suddenly turned and met Chen Luo's.

Chen Luo nodded at her, then left this window and went to open another one.

"The landlord is here! Let's go talk to him now!"

"It must be now. The landlord is so elusive. Who knows when he will come next time?"

After washing up, they came to the two-story building in front.

"Chen Luo, she is my colleague and wants to move here too. Do you think it's okay?"

"There will be women living in this courtyard in the future, so it will not be convenient for men to come in. If you agree, you can come and live here."

"I agree!"

"Okay, then you can move in."

The two girls lived in the east wing.

Chen Luo himself hesitated.

Is it better to live in the main house in the courtyard or upstairs in the two-story building?

Living in the main house in the backyard is quieter and has better sound insulation, so you can do anything without disturbing others.

It’s different on the second floor facing the street.

The soundproofing is very poor. If he and his girlfriend were to get intimate upstairs, the neighbors around would probably have to listen in through the wall.

But after comparing, he still wanted to live in the small building.

Because he really likes the feeling of having viewing windows on all four sides.

However, if he wanted to live in this small building facing the street, he had to take good care of the sound insulation.

Ordinary decoration workers are not good at sound insulation.

If you want to do a good job of sound insulation, you must find a professional to do it.

Chen Luo came to Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office and went to ask Director Wang.

Director Wang didn’t know where to find professional sound insulation, but she had a wide network of contacts, and after making a few phone calls, she solved the problem.

"Xiao Wuzi! The cost of this construction team is a bit expensive. Do you think you can afford it?"

Director Wang was worried that Chen Luo could not afford the fees.

At the same time, she also felt it was a waste.

"It's okay, Aunt Wang. I can accept the higher fee because my house is always making a lot of noise, which is very disturbing to others. I can't do it without soundproofing!"

"It needs to be soundproofed, otherwise the neighbors will definitely complain."

After the professional sound insulation construction team arrived, Chen Luo asked the sound insulation team to soundproof the entire two-story building facing the street, so that all the doors and windows had to be replaced with those with better sound insulation effects.

The cost for labor and materials is 800 yuan.

Chen Ruo thought that this was really expensive, enough to buy a small shop.

But he had to accept it.

Since he wanted to live in this two-story building and enjoy the quietness, he had no choice but to do this.

Chen Luo was only responsible for paying the money and he didn't care about the design and construction.

After leaving a bunch of keys with these people, he went to the steel mill.

When he arrived outside the kitchen of the third canteen where Shazhu was, he used his mental power to check and found that everyone was busy except Shazhu, who was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed. A large teacup was placed on the table next to him, still steaming.

The kitchen is an important area and outsiders are generally not allowed to enter.

Otherwise, if someone with bad intentions poisons you, wouldn’t that be troublesome?

Chen Luo felt that he had to avoid suspicion, so he asked an older sister outside to call Sha Zhu out.

"Silly Zhu! Someone is looking for you outside!"

This lady has a very loud voice and it seems like she is not afraid of trouble.

She works in the kitchen and should be under the leadership of Sha Zhu.

In this situation, she dared to shout out the word "Silly Zhu".

This shows what?

This shows that people have long been used to calling him Sha Zhu, and Sha Zhu himself has also gotten used to it and doesn't mind being called Sha Zhu.

When Sha Zhu heard someone looking for him outside, he was stunned for a moment and then immediately stood up and walked outside.

I was still thinking, 'Who is coming to see me at this time? It's interrupting my thoughts about the beauty.'

When he went out and took a look, he saw that it was Chen Luo. His face darkened and he walked towards Chen Luo.

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Come on, brother Zhuzi! Let's go over there and talk!"

Chen Luo took Sha Zhu's arm and pulled him to a corner more than ten meters away. Feeling that no one could hear him talking there, he lowered his voice and discussed the matter of steaming buns with him.

"Let me help you steam the buns, but the fee is not cheap. In our line of work, there are strict rules."

"You decide for yourself. Just make sure it's about right, and not more expensive than the buns in the bun shop."

"It's hard to say. Can the buns in the bun shop compare to the buns I steam? When I steam buns, they must be made with real ingredients. It's hard to calculate the cost."

"Okay, okay, since you said so, it's okay if the cost is a little higher. Just make your own arrangements."

Chen Luo originally wanted to arrange the steaming place in the courtyard near the drum tower. But Sha Zhu said that steaming so many buns would require a large iron pot and a large steamer, and there was no place to buy them, and it was not convenient to borrow them, so he could only steam them in someone else's place.

When Chen Luo heard that it was so troublesome, he simply handed the matter over to Sha Zhu to arrange. He would be responsible for providing the ingredients and money, and then wait to collect the buns.
