Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

The next day, the sun was already shining on Lin Sian's butt when he slowly got up from the bed.

There was no way. The bed in the new place was as hard as a rock. He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. He fell into a drowsy sleep until late at night, so he woke up late in the morning.

After he finished washing up, he took out the meat buns he had put in yesterday from the mysterious accompanying space.

“This portable space is really nice!”

Lin Sian looked at the big steamed meat buns that were still steaming and felt very happy.

After wolfing down a few big buns, he went out contentedly.

"Hey, wife, did you see that? That pretty boy took over the two houses across the street in a flash yesterday, just like he was grabbing candied haws!

A sturdy man was sitting on the threshold of the west wing, drinking his porridge slowly and leisurely, as if he was tasting wine. But when he looked up, he saw Lin Sian's back walking away gracefully.

"That's right, it's him!" His wife responded without even raising her head, rubbing the clothes in her hands like she was playing mahjong.

"That's a two-bedroom apartment, and it's so white. I guess he has a lot of money in his pocket, just like a bank." The strong man touched his chin, and his eyes were brighter than a wolf seeing meat.

"Hey, boss, you better be careful. Although this kid looks like a scholar, he probably has chili oil in his bones, which is very choking."

"Let's not mess around, lest we end up losing more than we gain, and end up becoming a laughing stock." The woman kept nagging while washing, like she was singing an opera.

When the man heard this, he couldn't hold back his pride and jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "Go wash your clothes, you little nag!

"Who am I, your husband? I'm the leader of the Little Red Gang, what am I afraid of?

"Even if he is Sun Wukong, I can still cast a spell on him!"

After saying that, he patted his chest deliberately and almost spilled the porridge.

However, the gleaming eyes gradually dimmed.

How do you say it?

This Little Red Gang is just a tiny speck of dust in the capital city. The number of its members is as small as one can count on one's fingers, yet they call themselves a gang. It's simply like ants dreaming of becoming an elephant.

To be honest, they only dare to mess with honest people and can use even a chicken feather as a token of authority.

As soon as he heard that Lin Sian was not an easy person to deal with, all the thoughts in Lu Langtou's mind disappeared like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.

Hey, this is also thanks to Lin Sian's aura of "I'm not easy to mess with" when he was bargaining, which directly taught Uncle Lu a lesson - one must be low-key and don't easily provoke troublemakers!

In a blink of an eye, Lin Sian wandered to Sun Yafang's territory again.

This time I am not here to rent a house, but to look for a job, with the ambitious goal of "I want to go to work and make money".

Sun Yafang is simply a small life service center, providing one-stop services such as renting houses, finding jobs, and blind dates. Although the store is not big, it has all the necessary facilities and is a typical "local bully."

Lin Sian was thinking that he had the capital to open a store.

But these days, the political situation is as chaotic as a pot of porridge, and the taxes are so high that they can circle the earth several times;

If you meet a greedy official, you will have to collect taxes in your next life.

Add to that the thugs on the street who collect protection money more punctually than my period, and my wallet is already half empty before the business even opens.

Not paying protection fees?

hey-hey……!

Then don’t even think about opening the door to welcome guests. At the very least, they will block your door, or at worst, they will come to your house to “renovate”.

Lin Sian thought, this is not business at all, it's just playing with your heart!

Therefore, he decided to find a respectable job first to improve his status in the underworld so that he could thrive in this chaotic world in the future.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Sian?"

When Sun Yafang saw Lin Sian, his smile was brighter than the flowers in spring, and he was so happy in his heart!

I thought to myself: I haven’t even warmed up to the commission from yesterday, and today I’m getting paid again.

"Haha, Brother Sun, I'm bothering you again."

Lin Sian was also all smiles. The two of them were so affectionate that if you didn’t know them, you would think they were brothers who had been separated for long time!

"Hey, what kind of joke are you talking about?

"Brother Sun, I'm looking forward to you coming to visit me every day. Our personalities are just like magnets meeting iron nails. It's a pity that we met too late. I wish I had been born a few hundred years earlier!"

After some business exaggeration, the real business finally came to the table.

"Brother Si'an, you have a lot of knowledge and graduated from a private school. It would be easy for you to work as an accountant or a small manager in a business, wouldn't it?"

Sun Yafang recommended it sincerely.

"Brother Sun, although the company is good, I have higher aspirations than the sky. I want to jump into a foreign company. Do you think it's okay?"

Lin Sian's eyes flickered with a desire to reach higher.

"A foreign company..." Sun Yafang frowned. The difficulty level was extremely high.

"The foreign companies are very valuable. Without a good command of foreign languages, you can't get anywhere. You..."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Sian interrupted confidently:

"Brother Sun, don't worry. Although I didn't come from a foreign school, I have known a missionary family since I was a child. I am very good at chatting with foreigners! If you don't believe me, listen carefully--"

“Hey, English is like sugar in dessert for me–the more, the merrier! It’s a total breeze, like catching fish in a barrel!”

(“Oh, English is like sugar in desserts to me, the more the better! Communicating with others is as easy as catching fish in a pond!”)

As he spoke, Lin Sian improvised a passage in fluent English. Although Sun Yafang couldn't understand it, it sounded just right!

When Sun Yafang heard this, hey, this guy is really good. Although he doesn't understand what he says, his style is definitely authentic.

He muttered to himself: Nowadays, even foreign languages ​​can be spoken so fluently, it's really like the new generation is pushing the old generation forward!

"Oh my god, if you can really become related to the foreigners, then you, Brother Sian, will be like riding a rocket, and your status will soar to the sky!

"What about the work in the foreign company..." Lin Sian asked.

"Come on, come on, brother. We will clear the way for you and ensure that you have a smooth journey!"

As he spoke, Sun Yafang took Lin Sian's hand.

The posture was as if he was going to kidnap a bride, and he ran towards the foreign company in a hurry.
