Siheyuan: I can change size at will

"Cao Zhengshuang, please donate the 200 yuan."

Liu Haizhong spoke.

Cao Zhengshuang said disdainfully: "Second Uncle, this money is mine. Why should I donate it, and I have to donate all of it."

Liu Haizhong didn't expect that Cao Zhengshuang would dare to talk back in front of so many people.

He said with a straight face: "Cao Zhengshuang, the Yi family is in trouble now. As a relatively well-off person in the courtyard, why can't you help the Yi family?"

"Besides, you didn't get this 200 yuan legitimately. This is a chance for you to make a new start."

Cao Zhengshuang pointed at Liu Haizhong and yelled, "Daibei Liu, you have the nerve to blackmail me morally."

"I won this money in broad daylight under the witness of all of you."

"Why are you saying that I got it illegally?"

"Why, donating the money to you is righteous, but spending it on yourself is evil."

"I think you are suitable to go out of the city and become a bandit."

"I would rather burn this money than donate it."

Sha Zhu stood up and accused, "Cao Zhengshuang, how can you talk to the second uncle like that?"

"You are the only one in the courtyard who is well-off. Everyone knows that."

"It's only right that you help an old man."

"Haha, I'm well-off, Shazhu. I think you're the most well-off."

"You have so many houses, such a high salary, and you don't have a wife. You must have saved a lot of money."

"So you should donate a few dozen dollars first, just to show your appreciation."

Cao Zhengshuang retorted.

"You're talking nonsense. How can there be so much money?"

Sha Zhu's momentum declined instantly.

At this time, Jia Dongxu had not left yet, and Sha Zhu did not provide much help to the Jia family.

So he really saved a lot of money.

Liu Haizhong said sternly, "Cao Zhengshuang, as an advanced youth in Siheyuan, Shazhu will naturally take the initiative to donate money. You don't have to worry about it."

"In short, will you donate or not?"

Cao Zhengshuang immediately said: "No donation."

"Yi Zhonghai has his share of hardships, but I don't think there are any difficulties at all."

"He has two houses. If he sells one of them, he will have money to spend and will never go hungry."

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and said, "Cao Zhengshuang, my house is not for sale. I mentioned before that my nephew will come to me for help in a while."

"It's okay if you don't sell the house. Jia Dongxu is your apprentice, so just let him support you."

Before Jia Dongxu could speak, Jia Zhangshi spoke first: "Cao Zhengshuang, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Our Jia family is struggling to make ends meet, how can we support the old Yi couple?"

"Mom, stop talking." Jia Dongxu pulled Jia Zhang.

"Why can't I tell you? If I don't, we won't have anything to eat next time."

"I have a good idea here."

Cao Zhengshuang continued, "Yi Zhonghai is an experienced fitter in the steel mill. Can't he just ask the factory to give him an advance on his salary?"

"So after analyzing it, Yi Zhonghai doesn't need our donations at all. He has many ways to solve the current difficulties."

After hearing this, everyone felt that what Cao Zhengshuang said made sense.

Yi Zhonghai is a level six fitter in the steel rolling mill, and his salary is the highest in the entire institute.

As long as he gets an advance on his salary, his family will definitely not starve to death.

"What Cao Zhengshuang said does make sense."

"Yi Zhonghai's salary is already very high, but he still wants to ask us for donations. I didn't expect him to be so evil."

"My monthly salary is less than half of Yi Zhonghai's. How can we poor people donate to the rich?"

When Yi Zhonghai saw that the wind direction had changed, he was so angry that his back teeth were almost broken.

"This bastard Cao Zhengshuang really doesn't care about human affairs."

Yi Zhonghai immediately stepped forward to explain: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me."

"Although I am a level 6 fitter in a steel rolling mill, I get paid very well."

"But that was in the past. I guess someone here knows."

"I made a mistake at the steel mill today and was fined one month's salary."

"I was even transferred from my position as a fitter to a cleaner who cleans toilets."

“My current salary is really not high.”

"So I hope everyone can lend a hand and help me out today."

For the sake of money, Yi Zhonghai finally gave in.

Liu Haizhong now forms a community of interests with Yi Zhonghai. He added: "Unfortunately, Lao Yi made a mistake in the factory, so it is difficult for him to get an advance on his salary."

"You all know how hard it is for him to be so strong-willed and ask for your help today."

"Everyone please lend a hand and give a hand."

"I have another idea..."

Just as Cao Zhengshuang was about to speak, Liu Haizhong interrupted him immediately.

"Cao Zhengshuang, this is a very serious matter, don't make a fuss here."

"If you don't want to donate, please go back."

"Don't just sit here and take up the sack."

"Except for you, we are all good people in the Red Star Courtyard."

"We can do things more smoothly without you. Go home."

"Don't attend any meetings we have in the courtyard from now on."

Liu Haizhong now clearly sees that Cao Zhengshuang is very happy, like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.

There is absolutely no way to use moral blackmail.

With Cao Zhengshuang here, this fundraising conference today will definitely not be held.

It would be better to just get rid of Cao Zhengshuang.

Cao Zhengshuang, like a victorious rooster, said proudly, "What? You can't win the argument with me, so you're going to let me go?"

"I'm not leaving today!"

"Believe it or not, for every penny you donate to Yi Zhonghai today, not only will he not be grateful, but he might even call you poor bastards behind your back."

“So everyone must keep an eye on their wallets and never donate a penny.”

"Cao Zhengshuang! You and I cannot coexist."

"Haha, I'm not in the same group with you."

Cao Zhengshuang suddenly thought of another way and actually slipped away on his own initiative.

After seeing the troublemaker Cao Zhengshuang leave, Liu Haizhong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He has now remembered that he will never call Cao Zhengshuang again in future meetings.

"Ahem, now that the troublemaker has left, let's continue talking about donations."

"Shazhu, take the lead and start donating."

An old lady came up with a donation box, and Sha Zhu took out two yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into the box.

Hiss, seeing Sha Zhu's arrogance, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

As expected of an old bachelor, he is rich.

Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were both very satisfied. Liu Haizhong said with a smile: "Sha Zhu is indeed an active member of our courtyard."

"He has set a good example. Everyone should actively participate."

"This is good for everyone."

"Who can guarantee that your house won't be robbed tomorrow?"

"When you help Lao Yi, you are also helping yourself."

Hey, what Liu Haizhong said is very sophisticated.

This is indeed the case.

Everyone also saved some of their already limited food allowances.

Five cents and ten cents are not too little, and one dollar or two dollars are not too much.

After one round, he actually collected 9 yuan for Yi Zhonghai.
