Siheyuan: Selling antiques? Only making 28,000 RMB from 30,000 RMB

Zhou Dong stood at the door of the ramen restaurant, thinking about how to help the old beggar. He knew that the old beggar's situation was not easy. Although he was now accepted by everyone, his daily life was still a difficult struggle. Zhou Dong decided to do something to help the old beggar no longer suffer from hunger and cold.

Just as he was thinking about what to do, Xu Damao suddenly came over, followed by a group of young men. They looked fierce, and seemed to be the helpers Xu Damao had called. Zhou Dong couldn't help but frown, feeling a little uneasy.

Xu Damao walked up to Zhou Dong, with a mocking smile on his face: "Zhou Dong, look, I have specially called some friends to teach that old beggar a lesson, so that he will know who is the real boss in this mysterious courtyard? This ancient and solemn courtyard seems to hide countless unknown secrets and stories. Every corner exudes the breath of time, which makes people want to explore the mysteries.

People in the yard are busy, some are basking in the sun, some are cleaning the yard, and some are sitting together chatting. They look ordinary, but they all seem to have their own unique temperament and charm.

Among these people, there is an elderly man who always leans on a cane and silently watches everything around him. His eyes are deep and wise, as if he can see through people's inner thoughts. He rarely speaks, but whenever he speaks, he always attracts the attention and listening of others.

There is also a young man who is sunny, handsome and full of energy. He likes to run and play in the yard and mingle with everyone. His smile is like the warm spring sun, warming everyone's heart.

In addition, there is a middle-aged woman who is gentle, kind and considerate. She often takes care of those in need and gives them care and encouragement.

So, who is the boss in this courtyard? Perhaps everyone has their own answer. It could be the respected old man, the energetic young man, or the kind-hearted middle-aged woman. But in any case, this courtyard has become more lively and interesting, full of the breath of life, because of them. . ”

Zhou Dong frowned, and anger surged in his heart. He couldn't understand why Xu Damao did this. He could have solved the problem peacefully, but he had to use violence. But he knew that now was not the time to lose his temper, and he had to deal with it calmly.

"Xu Damao, it's wrong for you to do this." Zhou Dong tried to stay calm and said in a firm tone.

Xu Damao chuckled: "No? You think it's wrong? You are just too weak, so you would think of sympathizing with that old beggar. In this world, only the strong have the right to speak, and the weak deserve to be stepped on."

Zhou Dong looked at Xu Damao coldly, his anger growing more and more intense: "Xu Damao, you are wrong. Sympathizing with the weak is not weakness, but a virtue. Why do you want to bully an old man like this? Don't you feel ashamed?"

Xu Damao shrugged nonchalantly: "Shame? I have never known what shame is. In this society, only interests are the most important. I am just protecting my interests."

Zhou Dong clenched his fists tighter, and he felt a nameless anger surging in his heart. He wanted to stop Xu Damao, but he knew it was not wise. He had to find other ways to protect the beggar's safety.

At this moment, the beggar appeared at the door. When he saw Xu Damao and a group of young people, he showed a trace of surprise and uneasiness on his face. Zhou Dong immediately stepped forward and stopped in front of the beggar.

"Uncle, please go back quickly. I will take care of some things here." Zhou Dong said softly.

The beggar shook his head, his eyes full of determination: "No, I can't let you take risks alone. I have to stand up and face these people."

Zhou Dong looked at the resolute expression of the beggar and was deeply moved. He knew that even though the beggar was old, his heart was still strong and he was unwilling to be bullied and threatened.

At this moment, Xu Damao walked up to them, with a cold look in his eyes: "Zhou Dong, don't think that I will never let that hateful old man go easily! He has committed such a serious crime that makes people gnashing their teeth. However, after careful consideration, I decided to temporarily put aside the hatred in my heart and choose to let him go. This is not out of weakness or kindness, but because I have deeper considerations and plans.

Some people may think that I am too lenient, but they don't know the whole picture. Although this old man is extremely hateful, there may be more unknown secrets and forces behind him. If I act rashly, not only will I fail to completely solve the problem, but it may also trigger a series of unexpected consequences.

Therefore, I chose to retreat and let the old man go for now. At the same time, I will secretly investigate and collect more evidence and clues to uncover the dark plot behind him. I believe that with my wisdom and courage, I will be able to find a better solution and let justice be served.

In this process, I will continue to improve my strength so as to cope with various challenges and crises that may arise. I know that only when I am strong enough can I better protect myself and the people around me and defend justice and fairness.

Letting the old man go is just one step in my plan. There are more important tasks waiting for me to complete. I will firmly believe in it, move forward courageously, and work hard to achieve my goals. No matter how rough the road ahead is, I will not be afraid, because I know that victory will eventually belong to those who persevere and pursue the truth. Today, I must let him know who is the boss in this courtyard. "

Zhou Dong's heart was filled with anger and resentment, but he knew that now was not the time to vent his emotions. He had to calm down and find a way to solve the problem.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded: "Xu Damao, what are you doing?"

Everyone turned to look, and saw a middle-aged man walking towards them, with a stern and warning look in his eyes.

"This is Yi Zhonghai!" someone whispered.

Yi Zhonghai's appearance broke the deadlock. Xu Damao and the young man behind him were stunned and at a loss for a moment. Yi Zhonghai looked serious and glanced at everyone present. His voice was steady and majestic: "What's going on?"

Zhou Dong looked at Yi Zhonghai and secretly felt lucky. Yi Zhonghai was the elder in this courtyard and had a lot of say. It was the best outcome for him to come forward at this time.

"Uncle Yi, this old beggar broke into our yard and wanted to beg here." Xu Damao hurriedly explained, trying to defend himself.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xu Damao deeply, then turned to Zhou Dong and the beggar. He walked to Zhou Dong and asked softly, "Zhou Dong, what happened?"

Zhou Dong felt a warm feeling in his heart, knowing that Yi Zhonghai was here to help them. He took a deep breath and briefly described the whole incident to Yi Zhonghai.

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned slightly. He looked at Xu Damao deeply and said in a cold tone: "Xu Damao, you are really too much to treat an old man like this."

The corner of Xu Damao's mouth twitched. He didn't dare to look directly into Yi Zhonghai's eyes and lowered his head.

Yi Zhonghai turned to the beggar and said with a smile, "Old man, what's your name?"

The beggar raised his head, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes: "My name is Uncle Ma."

Yi Zhonghai nodded and took out some money from his pocket: "Uncle Ma, this is some food and money, I hope it can help you."

Uncle Ma took the money, his eyes full of gratitude: "Thank you, Uncle Yi."

Yi Zhonghai smiled, turned to Xu Damao and said, "Xu Damao, I hope this kind of thing won't happen again. We must unite as one and work together to build a harmonious community."

Xu Damao nodded. He knew that Yi Zhonghai was not joking and he had to take it seriously.

Zhou Dong looked at this scene with a lot of emotion in his heart. He knew that although some people would fight for their own interests, there were still some people, like Yi Zhonghai, who were willing to lend a helping hand, which made him full of confidence in the future of the community.

As Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao left, the scene gradually returned to calm. Zhou Dong turned to Uncle Ma and said, "Uncle, I hope you can take good care of yourself. If you have any difficulties, you can come to us."

Uncle Ma nodded, his eyes full of gratitude: "Thank you, young people, I will remember you."

Zhou Dong and Qin Huairu looked at Uncle Ma's back, their hearts filled with blessings for him. They knew that although they could not change the whole world, they could help the people around them and make their lives better.

Before leaving, Zhou Dong suddenly remembered some change in his hand. He stuffed the money into Uncle Ma's pocket and said softly, "Uncle, this is a small help."

Uncle Ma looked at Zhou Dong in surprise, with a touch of emotion in his eyes: "Thank you, young man, thank you."

Zhou Dong smiled and shook his head: "You're welcome, sir, this is what we should do."

Qin Huairu also came over and patted Uncle Ma on the shoulder: "Uncle, if you need anything in the future, remember to come to us."

Uncle Ma nodded, his eyes full of gratitude and warmth. He knew that although life was difficult, there were still some kind-hearted people in this courtyard who were willing to lend a hand and help him through the difficulties.
