The Great Era of Siheyuan

Brother Long and his men had been following him for a few minutes. Seeing that Sha Zhu was walking faster and faster, they knew that he had probably discovered them. Without thinking too much, when they saw that there were not many people on the street, they took out a wooden stick from behind and chased him. Without saying a word, they hit him on the back of the head with the stick without any mercy.

Sha Zhu, who had been on guard against the men, heard the sound of wind behind his head and immediately realized that something was wrong. He quickly turned around and narrowly avoided the stick.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

Sha Zhu roared in fear. If he had not dodged the stick just now, he would probably be lying on the ground now.

"What? I'm not happy with you, so I want to beat you up!"

Brother Long sneered, then picked up the stick and rushed forward. The few people behind him also arrived in time, and followed closely behind him, swinging wooden sticks at Sha Zhu and hitting him wildly.

As the saying goes, a master can be beaten to death by a swarm of sticks. Sha Zhu had no way to dodge. He could only protect his head but not his feet. The four men beat him repeatedly, and for a while he had no power to fight back, until one of them accidentally knocked over his lunch box.

Sha Zhu looked at the food scattered on the floor and instantly became furious. The food inside the boxes contained his and his sister's dinner. Without these lunch boxes, he and his sister would have to starve tonight. He had not had time to exchange the food for this month.

Sha Zhu took the blow from the stick on his shoulder, then punched him in the chest mercilessly. The man fell down without a word, holding his chest.

"Xiao Liu~!"

When Brother Long saw his brother fall to the ground, he did not hold back and hit him hard on the vital parts, swinging the stick three times faster.

If it were before, Sha Zhu might have given him some distance, but now Sha Zhu was already furious. Relying on his thick skin and strong flesh, he exchanged injuries with others without mercy, and every move was fatal.

This reckless fighting style was very effective in this situation. The strong and powerful Sha Zhu defeated the remaining three people with just a few moves. Being hit by his punch was not much different from being hit by a hammer.

A wooden stick suddenly hit Shazhu's knee from below without any warning. Brother Long finally succeeded in his sneak attack.

"Ah~!"

Sha Zhu's face turned pale with pain. He took several hits from the stick and a punch to the head. Brother Long fell to the ground without saying a word.

Sha Zhu gradually went crazy. While he still had strength, he quickly grabbed the remaining two people and punched them continuously. The two men screamed in pain and then fell silent, having been knocked unconscious by Sha Zhu.

After a while, Sha Zhu came to his senses and saw several people lying on the ground, and sneered.

"You little bastards! When your grandfather was hanging around here, you weren't even born yet. And you still want to cause trouble for me?"

After saying this, Sha Zhu slowly picked up the lunch box on the ground and limped away.

Yan Jiecheng, who was hiding in the back, was frightened and ran away. As for the people on the ground, who cared whether they lived or died? They deserved to be beaten for not doing the job well. He didn't even know if Sha Zhu saw him. If he knew that he was the one who called these people, he would be finished.

Li Wenqiang was in a good mood. He had just gone to Gulou for a walk and found that there was a glass factory and a glass shop run by the factory, called Dahua Glass Shop. It was a waste of time and energy to go to Liulichang instead of going to a nearby place. But it was not a wasted trip for him, as he had found a business direction there before.

The Drum Tower was quite prosperous. He had just walked around a few times and saw a butcher shop, an art gallery, a watch service department, a pharmacy, a barber shop, a food wholesale store, a Yimin Trust store, a halal restaurant, the West City branch of the import and export material purchasing station, a fashion factory, a grocery store, a daily necessities store, a grain store, and so on.

Apart from the fact that the shops have a strong contemporary style, in fact, the difference with modern life is not that big, and everything that is necessary is there.

When I got back to the door and hadn't even entered yet, Yan Jiecheng ran over in a panic, looking nervous.

"What's wrong? You look so scared. Are there devils chasing you?"

Li Wenqiang said with a smile, looking like he was enjoying the fun.

"No~ It's bad! The people I called over were all knocked out by him. Now I don't know if Shazhu knows that I called them. If he finds out, he will probably beat me to death!"

Yan Jiecheng looked back in panic, as if afraid that someone would catch up with him.

When Li Wenqiang saw him like this, he knew that he had messed up!

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Wenqiang's mood instantly turned bad. Asking him to do something was simply like being blinded by greed. There was no need to have any expectations of him at all.

"I-I called Brother Long who was nearby, gave them ten dollars, and asked them to beat up Sha Zhu. But Sha Zhu was too powerful. He beat four people alone and knocked them all down! I ran away when I saw that something was wrong!"

Yan Jiecheng said with lingering fear.

"Brother Long, what Brother Long? How is Sha Zhu?"

Li Wenqiang now needs to find out what the situation is. This Yan Jiecheng is really a hopeless case. He is looking for people nearby, as if he is afraid that if something happens to others, they won't be able to find him. He didn't solve the problem of Shazhu, and now there is another problem.

Seeing his face now, Li Wenqiang wanted to slap him hard. He had never seen such a useless person in his life. He was always causing troubles but could not do anything good!

"Liu Ergou from Fangzhuanchang Hutong, nicknamed Brother Long, and his three subordinates. Shazhu was beaten with sticks by them a few times. I don't know the details. I ran away as soon as I saw that they lost."

Yan Jiecheng was still very worried as he spoke, and kept looking back, fearing that Sha Zhu would rush out and beat him up.

"Are you a fucking idiot? Can't you look for someone farther away? You're four against one and you're still killed. Do you know how to play?"

Li Wenqiang slapped him directly and looked at him coldly.

"Ouch!"

Yan Jiecheng was slapped in the face by him and turned around, covering his mouth and shrinking his neck, not daring to say a word.

"Remember this! From now on, just pretend that nothing happened. As long as Sha Zhu doesn't come looking for you, nothing will happen. Just do what you need to do. Don't expose me if there is anything wrong. If you say something you shouldn't, I'll make you pay!"

After saying this, Li Wenqiang prepared to leave.

When Yan Jiecheng saw this, he hurriedly grabbed him.

"Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang, you can't just ignore me, what should I do next?"

Yan Jiecheng looked at him with a sad face.

"How much money do you have left from the money I gave you?"

Li Wenqiang looked at him expressionlessly.

"Ten dollars!"

Yan Jiecheng did not dare to hide anything and spoke cautiously.

"Ten dollars? You used half a month's salary to hire a bunch of losers, and they beat you up? Haha, give these ten dollars to those people as their medical expenses, and don't come to me again!"

Li Wenqiang said, not bothering to pay any more attention to him, and walked straight into the house.

"Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang~!"

Yan Jiecheng was still chasing after him and asking for help, but unfortunately Li Wenqiang didn't even want to look at him and went straight in.

Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to return home.

Walking into the courtyard, the courtyard was deserted. Jia Dongxu had just gone out today, and with such a big thing happening, the courtyard was not as lively as usual. Everyone was hiding in their houses.

Qin Huairu was holding the child at the door, coaxing him, her eyes were dark, and she was worried about the future. He Yushui was beside her, and no one knew when the two of them had gotten together.

Li Wenqiang took a look and ignored it. He locked the car at the door and went straight into the house.
