Siheyuan: With a system in place, you don’t need to worry in times of famine

Yan Bugui gritted his teeth and finally decided to put the job issue aside for the time being.

He still has Ye Fei as a backup. Although Ye Fei is young, he is also very capable. As long as Ye Fei agrees to do something, he can still do it.

Besides, he always felt that Yi Zhonghai didn't tell him the truth. The price was 500 yuan, with no room for negotiation. Wasn't this a one-time deal? !

"Lao Yi, this amount of money is indeed a bit too much. Let me think of a solution."

Yan Bugui looked helpless, especially when he mentioned Yan Jiecheng, his whole expression was filled with dejection and loneliness:

"It's mainly because of my disappointing son. I've said everything I should have said, but he still has his own little thoughts. He would rather stay at home than go..."

At the end, Yan Bugui sighed deeply, full of bitterness and helplessness.

"Old Yan, go back and persuade him more.

This job opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I can help you delay it for a while, but it can't be delayed for too long."

Yi Zhonghai tried to persuade him. He could understand what Yan Bugui meant. He probably wanted him to pay less money.

But he didn't intend to pay less at all. Yan Jiecheng was in urgent need of a job, and Yan Bugui was rather calculating and stingy.

So he didn't intend to give in.

Just like two armies fighting each other, whoever retreats first is destined to be the loser.

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Yan Bugui didn't get what he wanted, so he stood up helplessly.

Work matters really cannot be postponed, he has to ask Ye Fei to see if there is any good news from Ye Fei.

If there really is nothing, then he will live frugally and get another hundred yuan for Yan Jiecheng.

Having made up his mind, Yan Bugui walked towards the front yard.

Looking at the door of his home which was just a step away from him, the image of Yan Jiecheng lying on the bed doing nothing popped into his mind again. He stamped his feet, found his fishing rod, and went out to fish.

I can't just stay at home all the time and watch my disappointing son. It will make me so angry that I will die!

"Ye Fei."

Yan Bugui was walking along the road when he spotted Ye Fei pushing a bicycle on the side of the road and quickly called out to him.

"Uncle, are you going fishing?"

Ye Fei took a look at Yan Bugui's equipment and said with a smile.

"Well, I have nothing to do at home, so I thought of trying my luck at Shichahai. If I catch some fish, I can satisfy my family's cravings."

Yan Bugui casually explained:

"Where are you going with your bike?"

"The tire is rotten, go get it fixed."

Yan Bugui looked over and saw that the front wheel was indeed flat, and it was obvious that there was something wrong.

"Turn left ahead, there's a mechanic there. Come on, I'll take you there."

"Thank you very much, Uncle Three."

Ye Fei said politely that he was originally looking for a place to repair his car, and now the third uncle was a great help to him.

"Well, there's no need to be polite between us!"

Yan Bugui waved his hand and said nonchalantly, then changed the subject and asked the question that had been on his mind:

"Ye Fei, have you made any progress on the matter of the job opening?"

"Oh, there is a little news, but it's not confirmed yet."

Ye Fei was stunned for a moment, then said.

I've been busy with other things these days and almost forgot about this.

"It's good to have news, it's good to have news."

Yan Bugui didn't think much about it. Hearing what Ye Fei said, he felt a little relieved and continued to ask:

"Ye Fei, how much money do we have to pay?

You can give me a rough idea first, so I can prepare in advance."

"It will probably cost a few hundred yuan, but I will try my best to help Uncle San save as much as possible."

Ye Fei made up a lie and said it calmly.

"Okay, then I'll thank you here first."

Yan Bugui's face was filled with excitement, and he finally let go of the worry in his heart.

As long as Yan Jiecheng's work problem can be solved, he will definitely follow Ye Fei's lead in the future and will never waver in his position easily!

As they were talking, they came to the place where the bike was repaired. Yan Bugui didn't have much to do, so he just stayed with Ye Fei while he repaired the bike.

"It's fixed. Be careful next time you ride your bike. A nail got stuck in it this time."

The mechanic repaired the tire, then pumped it up, observed it for a while, and saw that there was no major problem, so he said:

"Eighty cents in total."

"Here, thank you for your hard work, Master."

Ye Fei was about to take out money when Yan Bugui quickly took out a dollar and handed it to the mechanic.

"Uncle, what are you doing..."

"It's okay, Ye Fei, you've been busy running around for my family.

It’s not much money, I’ll just take it out.”

Yan Bugui explained directly that he now placed most of his hopes on Ye Fei.

It costs some money to find someone to do something for you.

This is only 80 cents. If I can use it to solve Yan Jiecheng's work problem, it will definitely be worth it.

"That's fine."

Ye Fei did not refuse any more. After getting along with Yan Bugui, he found that although Yan Bugui was really stingy and calculating, he was sometimes a little broad-minded when it came to socializing.

"Come on, Uncle Third, I'll take you to Shichahai."

"what?

You want to go too?"

Yan Bugui was a little surprised. He didn't hear Ye Fei say he wanted to go fishing.

"Well, try your luck. Maybe you'll get something, and then it will be easier to do things."

Ye Fei explained that he didn't have much to do today anyway, and he felt relieved that he had Third Aunt and Grandma Meng to help look after the house renovations.

"Hahaha, that's great. If you were here, I guarantee that we wouldn't come up empty-handed today."

Yan Bugui smiled immediately. He wished Ye Fei would go with him. As long as Ye Fei was there, what would he be afraid of? !

Shichahai was a bit far away, so Ye Fei simply let Yan Bugui sit on the back of the bicycle.

"It's different with a bicycle. The speed is much faster than walking on two legs."

The warm spring breeze blows on your face, bringing coolness, comfort and pleasure.

Yan Bugui sat in the back seat, closed his eyes, enjoyed the breeze, and sighed.

"Of course, Uncle San, when you have money, you can buy a bicycle so that you can go anywhere conveniently."

Ye Fei pedaled his bicycle quickly, with the corners of his clothes flying.

Fortunately, the third uncle was not fat, so he rode relatively easily. If the third uncle had the physique like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, he would definitely not offer to give a ride.

"I'll buy it when I have money. I don't know when I'll be able to afford such an expensive bicycle."

Yan Bugui sighed sincerely, saying that he also wanted to buy it, but it cost more than a hundred yuan.

"I will definitely be able to buy it, it's just a matter of time."

Ye Fei said this very sincerely. You know, in the original book, it was because of the Third Uncle's thriftiness that he not only got a bicycle, but was also able to buy a TV in the end.

"Hahaha, thank you for your good words."
