Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Sha Zhu was holding back a lot of energy, and this energy had two flavors. The first was happiness, as he could finally go out. He hadn't eaten meat for years, and the next time he did, he wanted to ride a foreign horse. The second was competitiveness, as he felt that he could become rich, very rich, as long as Zeng Wangcai was willing to help.

Before Sha Zhu came in, Qin Huairu already knew that Sha Zhu was going abroad with Xu Damao because Yi Zhonghai said so.

Upon learning this, Qin Huairu's first reaction was that this was not possible. Now that Sha Zhu was gone, what should she do with the restaurant?

Ma Hua is simply not going to make it. When the business goes downhill, what will he do with his children’s marriage if he doesn’t make any money?

After she turned evil, she only thought about her child. In her heart, there was no one else except her child.

In the original novel, when Sha Zhu went to work in Yu Li's restaurant, Baiyan Langbang knew to say that it was too hard for Sha Zhu to work two shifts, but Qin Huairu didn't have that awareness. She just had a gloomy face after learning that Sha Zhu was fired by Yu Li.

So how could Qin Huairu agree to let Sha Zhu go out at this time?

"What money? No money!" Qin Huairu's job was not done at all, so she was furious when she heard Sha Zhu asked for money. "We are just ordinary people, why should we go abroad... No, how much money did you ask for?"

Qin Huairu then realized that what Sha Zhu wanted was different from what Yi Zhonghai said.

Yi Zhonghai persuaded Qin Huairu that he would take one thousand and let Qin Huairu take one thousand, and they would make up two thousand to let Sha Zhu go out and have some fun and relax.

Because Yi Zhonghai knew that Sha Zhu had been suppressed too much by Qin Huairu in recent years and was prone to rebellion. This time with Zeng Wangcai involved, it would be better to let Sha Zhu relax.

But neither of them expected that Sha Zhu would ask for 30,000 right out of the gate.

"Thirty thousand, not a penny less!" said Sha Zhu with his neck stiff.

He became unhappy when he heard what Qin Huairu said before. What's wrong with the common people?

Ordinary people can’t go abroad?

Let’s not talk about other places. Many people in Nanluoguxiang have been abroad. Why can’t I go abroad?

Who are you looking down on...

"Are you crazy?" Qin Huairu stared at Sha Zhu with eyes wide open, incredulous. "What country are you going to go to for 30,000? I think you don't want to live anymore."

"It's okay, take the money!" Sha Zhu's stubborn temper came out, "I've had enough of this kind of life. Every day I have to do everything inside and outside, buying groceries, cooking... I said I wanted to invite Ma Hua to help me, but you said one more person means more expenses, so how much work do I have to do if one less person is missing?

"It's okay to work, but look at me, my chef's coat has become my formal attire. How many years have I not made new clothes or bought new shoes? And my cigarettes have been 20 cents a pack for more than ten years... Even Uncle Li is smoking Peony cigarettes now..."

Shazhu exploded. It was normal for him to be angry after working as an old cow for several years and still not having enough to eat.

If Yi Zhonghai hadn't been here, Sha Zhu would have had to talk about sleeping.

"You work in the kitchen every day, why do you need new clothes and shoes? There's no difference between a pack of cigarettes that costs 20 cents and a pack of cigarettes that costs 40 cents." Qin Huairu obviously didn't realize that Sha Zhu was different this time. She asked Yi Zhonghai for help, "Look at him, uncle. How can he live like this? Isn't he always trying to save money?"

"Huai Ru, stop talking!" Yi Zhonghai was different. He saw that Sha Zhu was serious and immediately advised, "Zhu Zi has a point. You control him too much. He is a grown man, but he doesn't have a penny in his pocket."

"He's not going out, why would he need money in his pocket..."

"Huai Ru, stop talking!" Yi Zhonghai shouted, "Whether he goes out or not, he needs money. He is a man, and he smokes. He is a boss anyway. The bosses now are all Asma Zhonghua Yunyan and the like, but he is still fighting like he was more than ten years ago. If he meets an acquaintance who comes to eat in the restaurant, he can't afford to give out cigarettes when talking to them. It's embarrassing, don't you understand?"

"Did you hear me? Did you hear me?" Sha Zhu felt very grateful, or maybe he felt that Yi Zhonghai was on his side for the first time. He felt much more comfortable and said with his neck held high, "Qin Huairu, you are the one holding me back. I wouldn't agree to it if it was anyone else. You treated me like Yang Bailao for so many years, but now I want money and you refuse to give it to me. This is unacceptable. This is my money."

Qin Huairu was stunned. What do you mean your money?

Where did you get the money?

Even your people are mine...

Honestly earn dowry for our children.

Yi Zhonghai held down Qin Huairu who was about to refute and asked patiently: "Zhu Zi, it's okay to ask for money. You have worked hard for so many years, but what you said just now is not right. The restaurant is not yours alone, and the money earned is not yours alone."

"Uncle, I know!" Sha Zhu nodded like a fool, "You have a share in the restaurant. Without you, I can't open this restaurant, but I give you the annual dividends..."

"No, no, no!" Yi Zhonghai waved his hands quickly, "I'm talking about Huairu. She has been helping out in the restaurant from dawn to dusk for so many years. You can't just ignore it."

"What do you mean by 'not mentioning black or white'?" Sha Zhu was unhappy and said, "The money is in her hands. I didn't say anything before. Now I need the money, but I can't get it back? Besides, when she came, we agreed to pay her salary. Now... the account books are in her hands."

This is a determination to get money.

Qin Huairu finally saw clearly at this time that Sha Zhu was serious. If she didn't handle it properly, Sha Zhu might die.

"Didn't I tell you that the money is for life!" Qin Huairu softened her attitude, "Take it out when the child gets married, and help..."

"Why?" Sha Zhu changed his previous attitude, "Is that my child? What does their marriage have to do with me? Who are you to me? Qin Huairu, tell me who you are to me?"

"I'm your wife. There are so many people in Nanluoguxiang, who doesn't know me?"

"I asked you, have you got the certificate?"

"This... didn't we agree that we won't get the marriage certificate if it doesn't save our child's reputation?"

"Okay, fine. Then there is one more thing. Do you want me to say it or not?"

"this......"

Qin Huairu knew what Sha Zhu was going to say, it was nothing more than the things between men and women.

She felt guilty because Yi Zhonghai didn't even know about this.

"Money, money, money. In your eyes, money is the most important thing, right? People are nothing. I am blind..." Qin Huairu softened again. "I will go and get it tomorrow. I don't want the interest on the dead period. That should be fine... But you have to tell me, what do you want this money for?"

"Yes, Zhuzi, don't say such angry words!" Yi Zhonghai followed up and advised, "I don't know how much money you have made in the past few years, but thirty thousand yuan is not a small amount. You should tell me the total amount. It would be a pity to lose the interest on the death date."

"Interest is nothing!" Sha Zhu was in a good mood and said with a proud smile, "I'm going to get rich, go abroad to do business, and Wangcai will help me get rich..."

Yi Zhonghai's heart skipped a beat. It was over. His business was about to fall apart.
