Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background

Banggeng stood in the middle of the crowd, looking at the old man who was once highly respected, and his heart became lively.

Now he is no longer the same person as before and has seen the world, so he naturally noticed the evasiveness in Yi Zhonghai's expression, which made him believe what Xu Damao said a little more.

Bang Geng just stared at Yi Zhonghai for two seconds and then stopped looking at him and looked directly at everyone in the compound.

"My dear uncles, aunts, and sisters, I was born in this courtyard, but when I was young and ignorant, I sold the house. Now that I have made it, of course I want to return to my roots. I am now offering a high price to buy the house. If anyone is interested in the house, please let me know. I will never bargain."

Banggeng originally wanted to wait until Cao Xing was not in the compound before coming.

But after hearing what Xu Damao said, he could not wait any longer and wanted to find out everything about his family immediately.

Anyway, it seems that Cao Xing supports him in finding out the truth, so he doesn't care about it anymore.

In order to find out as quickly as possible, he first had to move in.

For this reason, he was not stingy and spent money where necessary. He had long understood the power of money and was adept at using it.

Sure enough, after he said this, the residents living in the side rooms, the back rooms and the main hall responded one after another.

"I'm selling it, Bangteng, how much can you offer?"

"I'll sell it too, Banggeng. You know we live in the main hall. How much do you want for it?"

The houses they live in are not main houses, so it would be better for them to take the money and go find the factory employees to exchange them for a bright and spacious house.

As for the fact that everyone was unhappy about Banggeng's arrival, they didn't care.

They don't even live in this courtyard anymore, so why should they care about other people?

Everyone was talking at once, and the compound instantly became a mess.

This made Qin Huairu, who was watching, frown.

She was extremely reluctant to let Bang Geng move in.

After all, they had already severed their mother-son relationship and had even signed a document. Now that Banggeng was going to move in, she couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.

However, Cao Xing had told her that she had to acquiesce, no matter how much she acted coquettishly. Moreover, Cao Xing promised her that Banggeng would not stay here for long, so she stopped objecting.

Liu Haizhong knocked on the magnetic steel cup that he received as a reward from the factory and shouted, "Quiet, quiet, Bang Geng, tell us how much money you want first and see if everyone agrees."

Banggeng knew that he was not welcome in this courtyard, but he understood that money could make anything possible, so he said it immediately.

"Everyone, I'll pay 300 for the main hall and the back house, 400 for the ear room, 500 for the wing room, and 280 for the other side rooms. In addition, as long as I move in, I'll give 2 yuan to each household in the courtyard, as a token of my forgiveness for my previous ignorance."

As soon as he said this, discussions started again.

They didn't expect that Banggeng not only offered a good price, but also gave benefits to other people. This kid has grown up!

"I sell!"

"I'll sell it too, great! I don't want any of the furniture in my house anymore. You just need to add ten dollars and you can move in right away."

Banggeng quickly chose Liu Damazi's house, which had a main hall.

This hall was connected to the front yard and the middle yard, making it convenient for him to do things in the future.

After paying the money, the matter is settled.

Just wait until tomorrow to go to the factory and the street office to complete the formalities and then we can move in.

After everyone left, Yi Zhonghai returned to his house with a heavy face. He didn't understand what kind of threat this guy would pose to him.

But he knew that what was written on the note was probably about right.

This joke is probably directed at him.

However, judging from Banggeng's demeanor, he was obviously much more mature than when he left, and he also knew how to use some tricks, so he began to think about it.

Yi Zhonghai, who was humiliated by Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui, soon fell asleep, but when he woke up, Muran found another note in front of the door.

It only said: Banggeng is now the leader of the thieves. If you need help in the future, just hang a rope at the door.

When Yi Zhonghai saw this, he frowned.

The leader of the thieves?

What is this stuff.

Is there still such an organization in this new society?

Isn't this a joke?

Yi Zhonghai had never come across these things before, so he was skeptical about what was written on the note.

However, in order to find out Bang Geng's purpose, Yi Zhonghai went to the factory to ask for leave, and then returned to the courtyard and hid in the room to observe secretly.

Sure enough, before noon, Banggeng had completed all the procedures and moved in.

The location of Yi Zhonghai's room is just right to observe Banggeng's house. The two sides are diagonally opposite each other, so it is convenient to observe.

This was all normal, but what surprised him was that Banggeng not only lived alone, but also brought an old man with him.

He still knows this old man.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this old man is half his master.

The old man's name was Zhou Jin, and people called him Lao Zhou. He was the earliest eighth-level fitter in the steel rolling mill.

Old Zhou was the master chef of the steel rolling mill when he was in charge of the steel rolling mill in Loubancheng.

After the public-private partnership, Lao Zhou reached retirement age. After teaching a group of veterans, he retired to enjoy his life.

Yi Zhonghai is one of those people.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Old Zhou is half-master of Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai didn't expect that Old Zhou would come to the courtyard.

What is his relationship with Bang Geng?

What is he doing here?

Yi Zhonghai couldn't figure it out, but he vaguely felt that Banggen was targeting him.

This made him feel even more uneasy.

Thinking of this, he immediately picked up the bag of sticks and headed towards Banggeng's house.

"Master Zhou, I didn't expect to see you here."

When Zhou Jin saw Yi Zhonghai, he was stunned at first and a little confused. Then he seemed to remember something and was suddenly very surprised.

"Are you Yi Zhonghai? We haven't seen each other for many years."

There was nothing unusual on Zhou Jin's face, which made Yi Zhonghai relax a little.

"It's been more than ten years, and you're still in good spirits."

"Haha, my children are grown up and earn money, so I don't have to work. I just take my bird for a walk every day. I don't have any worries."

Zhou Jin's words unexpectedly hit Yi Zhonghai's weak spot.

Bang Geng, who was standing next to him, sneered when he saw Yi Zhonghai's forced smile that looked like he wanted to cry.

He didn't know that Yi Zhonghai was at home, so he openly invited Zhou Jin over to ask him some questions. Unexpectedly, Yi Zhonghai came to him on his own initiative.

This was obviously a test from Yi Zhonghai. Banggeng had already determined that Yi Zhonghai was up to something.

"Hey uncle, what are you doing here with all this cornmeal?"

Yi Zhonghai was a little embarrassed at first, after all, Zhou Jin's life was what he had always dreamed of.

It was as if the two of them were just talking the other way around. He just didn't know how to respond when Banggeng's voice rang out, just enough to resolve his embarrassment.

"Oh, Banggeng, it's your first day moving in. This is some cornmeal for you. If you don't have enough to eat or drink, just ask me for it."

Bang Geng thanked him and took it.

"Uncle, is there anything else?"

Yi Zhonghai narrowed his eyes and thought to himself that he was trying to drive me away.

"It's okay. I just came to deliver corn noodles. But I didn't expect Master Zhou to be here. I haven't seen him for many years so I wanted to catch up."

Then he turned his gaze to Zhou Jin and said, "Master Zhou, are you acquainted with Bang Geng?"
