Rebirth 1962: The Beginning of the Angry Fan Qin Huairu

Two days later

The impact of the earthquake has gradually begun to return to normal, but the Siheyuan is still experiencing one crisis after another.

In the front yard of the old Zhao family's house, Zhao Zhanfu felt a pang of pain as he looked at the ruins in front of him.

"Boss, have you asked everything clearly? Just to fix the house and prevent it from collapsing, that person dared to ask us for a hundred dollars?"

"Don't even mention it. At this price, we're only going to put up the walls of the house. As for repairing the roof, we'll have to pay extra."

"What, are they trying to rob me of my money?"

"Dad, this is really cheap. Prices have gone up now. It's impossible for people to work for nothing without making any money, right?"

Zhao Zhanfu sighed. "Okay, I'll go talk to He Yuzhu."

The Zhao brothers looked at each other and both chose to remain silent. They felt that two hundred yuan was already a good amount, but they did not dare to mention it in front of Zhao Zhanfu.

The two brothers simply let him do it. After all, they had found a suitable house. Although it was a little shabby, it was still two proper rooms with a backyard. However, the owner moved to the north with his children, so the house had been empty for seven or eight years.

But they did not want to tell Zhao Zhanfu the news now, because if they told him too early, the old man would definitely try to get something for nothing. It would be better to wait until he suffered a little at the hands of He Yuzhu, and then tell him about this way out when he had no other options.

Zhao Zhanfu is now getting anxious. He can't have his whole family living in a crowded earthquake shelter every day!

So he turned around and walked towards He Yuzhu's house with his crutches. He Yuzhu was discussing the home decoration plan with Song Wende at the time.

Especially now that except for the two wing rooms of the Jia family, the rest of the houses in the central courtyard are his, so He Yuzhu decided to renovate them according to the highest standards. As for those houses that he has not yet got, he will deal with them after he gets them.

"I want to make the east wing in the same style as the main house, and turn the east ear room into an independent kitchen with exhaust and independent sewer."

"By the way, Master Song, can you get a flush toilet now?"

Song Wende looked at He Yuzhu in surprise. "Old He, you are worthy of being a leader. You even know about this new thing?"

"Yes, there is, but it's very expensive, and you have to redesign the drainage system in your yard, so the cost is bound to be unavoidable!"

He Yuzhu directly took out two thousand yuan and stuffed it into Song Wende's hand, making Song Wende flustered.

"No, this is too much. Even if we were to decorate the entire middle and front yards, we wouldn't be able to use it all!"

"Master Song, take it first. You will also be asked to clean up the two western rooms in the backyard in a while, so this money may not be enough!"

Song Wende was stunned. "Are you talking about the house in the backyard owned by Xu Yingzhan?"

"Yes, it's their house."

"Old He, you're not going to take over the entire courtyard, are you?"

He Yuzhu smiled calmly. "Then I'll have to trouble you, so I want to make an independent launch to avoid more trouble later."

Song Wende quickly reminded: "That's not a problem, but such a large project needs approval from the street first, otherwise it won't meet the requirements."

He Yuzhu simply reached into his pocket and took out the approval slip that had been prepared in advance.

"Don't worry, I've already prepared this thing, but the rest depends on you."

Song Wende patted his chest, but before he could say anything, Zhao Zhanfu's voice came over.

"Zhuzi, Zhuzi, I have something to ask you."

He Yuzhu also knew what he wanted to do, so he said directly: "I know what you are here for, but I still have the same condition. If you sell it for 200 yuan, I will take it. If you don't sell it, forget it."

"But I think you know in your heart that two hundred is already a high price for the pile of ruins in your house."

Zhao Zhanfu knew that it was a high price, but he had thought of a lot of rhetoric and was ready to bargain with He Yuzhu. Even if he could increase the price by a few dozen yuan, it would be considered a bargain.

But now He Yuzhu had made his final statement. Zhao Zhanfu stood there in contemplation for a moment, and finally had to grit his teeth and agree to He Yuzhu's price.

"Okay, let's go and handle the formalities together this afternoon."

Zhao Zhanfu pointed at everyone in a rather lonely manner, then turned around and went back to the front yard.

"Yeah, there are two more."

Song Wende laughed when he heard this. The more work he did, the more money he earned. And in recent years, thanks to He Yuzhu's introduction, their family's life has been getting better and better.

But while He Yuzhu was discussing with Song Wende, Yan Bugui had already gone to the backyard to find Liu Haizhong to discuss building a house.

"According to what you said, whoever covers it owns it?"

"You can't say that. We built this permanent earthquake shelter to prevent disasters before they happen."

"Permanent earthquake shelter?" Liu Haizhong muttered, and then said with a smirk, "You are the one with the most evil ideas in your mind."

"Go to hell, let me ask you one question, are you going to build this house or not?"

"We definitely have to build it, but what about the one in the middle court?"

"Are you talking about the pillars?" Yan Bugui said in a low voice.

"Yes, you know the current situation in the yard. If Zhuzi disagrees with something, who will get it done?"

Yan Bugui waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "Old Liu, you worry too much. Although Zhuzi has been very strong in the past two years, he always does things reasonably."

"Why is he allowed to do renovations in the yard? Can't we build a permanent earthquake shelter?"

After Yan Bugui finished speaking, he saw that Liu Haizhong still didn't react, so he simply provoked him again. "Old Liu, are you afraid of He Yuzhu?"

"Then don't stop me from covering myself. By the way, does your second son also have to talk about his wife in the future? Do you want him to squeeze in with you in the future?"

The thing that Liu Hai hated most was being told that he was not good enough, so after being stimulated by Yan Bugui, and considering that the house was indeed very tempting to him, he slapped his thigh immediately.

"Let's build it, but we two brothers have also agreed that we must advance and retreat together on this matter. Whoever backs out halfway will be the grandson."

Yan Bugui nodded in satisfaction. "That's more like a great man now, but let's contact the materials in the next two days, and then build it after those house sellers have moved out."

Liu Haizhong immediately understood what Yan Bugui meant. Although this was a bit too cautious, it would be troublesome if those people saw it and followed suit.

This went on for three days. As soon as Zhao Zhanfu and the families of Lin Dong and Zhang Jianshe from the Intermediate Court moved out of the courtyard, Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong brought all the construction materials into the courtyard.

At dusk, Xu Damao was the first to return to the courtyard because he did not go to work. However, as soon as he entered the yard, he saw a pile of neatly stacked red bricks.

"Hey, you're going to decorate this too?"

Yan Bugui turned around and saw that it was Xu Damao. "What's the matter? Is it blocking your way?"

"Hey, how can you talk like that, old Yan?"

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly. "Why are you so anxious when it's just a joke?"

"I'm not afraid of having no place to hide if there's another earthquake, so in the spirit of promoting style, I'm going to personally fund the construction of two permanent earthquake shelters in the yard."

"Da Mao, look at the 1.5-meter width I left in the middle. Is that enough?"

Xu Damao glanced at the narrow road drawn on the ground and complained angrily, "What's the point of that?"

"Open your eyes and see that a cyclist can pass through such a narrow road."

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, but isn't this reason of a permanent earthquake shelter a little too far-fetched?"

Yan Bugui still smiled and said, "Look at what you said. I work and produce materials for the sake of the people in the whole yard."

Xu Damao became even more unhappy when he heard this, but at this time Liang Ladi suddenly pulled him. Xu Damao was a little confused, and when he turned around, he saw He Yuzhu just came back.

For a moment, both of them fixed their eyes on He Yuzhu who had just entered the courtyard...
