Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Liu Haizhong had planned everything, but he never expected Zeng Wangcai to be so ruthless. He refused to invite any of the 27 households in the courtyard.

In that case, how to deal with him?

"Old Yi, why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Liu Haizhong said anxiously.

"I just listened to what Sha Zhu said, and didn't ask any more questions!" Yi Zhonghai replied calmly, "They didn't invite me, so why should we go and join in the fun? I told Old Yan at the time that I would intervene in this matter."

It has to be said that Yi Zhonghai might not be as conscious and perceptive as others, but when it comes to shrewdness and foresight, ten Liu Haizhongs are no match for Yi Zhonghai.

As a section-level cadre in the machinery factory, no matter how slow-witted Yi Zhonghai was, it was impossible for him not to be aware of the disharmonious atmosphere that suddenly emerged in the factory.

When it comes to things he doesn't understand, Yi Zhonghai's usual approach is to wait and see. Just like now, he noticed that the atmosphere was not right and that Liu Haizhong was restless.

Out of caution and out of fear of Zeng Wangcai, Yi Zhonghai chose to remain silent and wait and see.

"No, you have to tell me..." Liu Haizhong was really anxious. He stood up and walked out, ready to find Sha Zhu to ask.

Before he knew it, Liu Haizhong bumped into someone at the door.

"Who is it, ouch..." Liu Haizhong was tall, otherwise he would have been hit on the butt by Han Qiaosheng who came in.

"Second uncle, second uncle...godfather..." Han Qiaosheng ran out of breath, "Team Leader Li is here, wait a minute, I need to drink some water first."

Liu Haizhong hadn't drunk his tea yet, so Han Qiaosheng made it all.

Han Qiaosheng, who felt much better after drinking tea, said, "Second uncle, there are many people outside the alley. I'll take a look first. Once we have the evidence, we can let them in..."

"You..." Liu Haizhong pointed at Han Qiaosheng with a trembling hand, "Your sister is getting married, and you don't have any information about it?"

This is interesting!

Zeng Wangcai is getting married, Zhang Xiuzhi is getting married. At this time, among the twenty-seven households in the courtyard, anyone can be invited, so how could Han Qiaosheng not be invited?

No matter how fake it is, Han Qiaosheng is still Zhang Xiuzhi's younger brother.

"I understand, he is on guard against you..." Liu Haizhong took a breath.

"You just understood?" Yi Zhonghai said gloomily, "Zeng Wangcai was very defensive. He actually never considered Qiao Sheng as a relative. Qiao Sheng...what do you think?"

"This..." Han Qiaosheng's face changed.

What Yi Zhonghai said was that it’s not that he didn’t have feelings, it’s just that he had a guilty conscience and never dared to mention it.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were right about one thing, Han Qiaosheng would go wherever whoever gave him milk would give him. All his hesitations and vacillations were for the sake of living a good life, nothing else.

Because of this, Han Qiaosheng quickly adapted to his current position.

"This has to be done no matter what..." Han Qiaosheng gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Just you wait, I'll go ask them where they're eating!"

"Don't ask, I know!" Yi Zhonghai crossed his legs leisurely, "They went to Quanjude..."

......

Outside Qianmen Meat Market Street, next to a shop, there are red letters on a white background that read: Quanjude, a public-private partnership, and the slogan "Hanging Oven Roast Duck".

This is Quanjude, a restaurant that is known to almost everyone in Beijing and a true century-old establishment.

In the year when the emperor was in power, Yang Quanren, the first owner of Quanjude, spent all his savings to buy this shop called "Dejuquan".

It took the Yang family a hundred years of painstaking effort to build Quanjude into its current size and fame.

However, more than ten years ago, after Yang Fulai, the last boss of Quanjude, came, this shop has become different.

"Have you guys made reservations?" A waiter at the door, no, it should be a waiter, stopped Zeng Wangcai and others who came in without any expression, "Business is good during the New Year. If you don't have a reservation, our restaurant will not accept you..."

See what you can do...

Zeng Wangcai rolled his eyes inwardly and didn't bother with this guy because there was really no need to.

If you really want to be serious about this situation, then don't go out, because it's like this everywhere and you can't see enough of it.

"This way, Xiaobao, this way..." Zeng Wangcai didn't waste time talking to the waiter. He waved to Xiaobao, who had just walked to the stairs on the second floor, "Tell him where our private room is!"

"Brother, let me..." Xiaobao walked down the stairs in three or two steps, told the waiter about the room, and then greeted Zhou Yuanbai who was brought by Zeng Wangcai.

"Where are my parents? Where are the others?" Zeng Wangcai asked.

"We're all here. We're eating melon seeds in the room upstairs. We're having a great time. We're just waiting for you!" Little Leopard replied with a smile.

Without further ado, go upstairs.

The private rooms are different from the lobby. One is quieter, and the other is that the decoration is much better.

Entering the private room, Zeng Wangcai saw that his guests, Lin Haitao and his wife, and Huang Liang had all arrived and were sitting around the table eating melon seeds and drinking tea.

"The real boss is here..." Seeing Zeng Wangcai and others coming in, everyone stood up and congratulated them.

Zeng Wangcai happily accepted the congratulations and truly liked the current atmosphere.

All the people he cared about and trusted were here, except for those from Jiang Dao.

"Everyone, everyone, everyone, sit down..." Zeng Wangcai asked everyone to sit down one by one, and said with a smile, "My wife and I would like to thank everyone for their support today. Everyone, eat and drink well today."

"Wangcai, you can't just eat and drink well!" Zhou Yuanbai said, "Today, you two have to tell us when you want to have a child. Your parents are waiting to hold their grandchildren, and I, an old guy, also want to see the child before I am buried..."

"Okay, I'll make it clear that I'll have a baby this year!" Zeng Wangcai said, hugging Zhang Xiuzhi's shoulders. "We agreed last night that we'll have two babies in three years!"

"Who told you that?" Zhang Xiuzhi was a little embarrassed and said, "I didn't tell you that if you want to have a baby, go ahead and give birth yourself..."

"That won't do..."

After a while of fun, we ordered some food.

Zeng Wangcai didn't even look at the menu, and said familiarly: "I won't talk about the roast duck, just look at the number of people, money is not a problem, and as for the dishes, let's have mustard duck feet, roasted duck heart, braised duck four treasures... lotus leaf cakes are a must, and the dipping sauce is based on the number of people..."

"Oh, I can tell you're a foodie!" The waiter who entered the private room was much more discerning than the waiter at the door. He knew that those who could eat in the private room at this time were either rich or powerful. He smiled warmly and said, "I think you have a lot of people. How about this, why don't you just come to our restaurant for the whole duck feast?"

"That's fine!" Zeng Wangcai nodded. "By the way, take a picture of the roast duck. We can eat it now."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be there soon..."

After a while, the dishes started to arrive one after another and everyone started eating in a lively manner.

But they were not half late. At the door downstairs, several people led by Li Yuanba, each wearing red armbands that showed their status, broke into the store.
