Siheyuan: Say no to widows! Restart your life

The sun gradually sets in the west.

He Yuzhu hummed a little tune and walked happily towards the yard.

During this period, life was getting better and better. Apart from the fact that the three stewards and Xiaodang, Huaihua, Qinhuai and Jia Zhangshi could be seen showing up from time to time, there were no other problems.

Occasionally, we would see these people, writing and drawing with paper and pen. If I remember correctly, they were there specifically to collect information about how much money we made from our business.

Don't say anything else.

It's this kind of persistence.

If you put your money into making money, you would have become rich long ago.

"It's time for a meeting, a meeting..."

"..."

"..."

I heard the noises coming one after another before I even reached the yard. I had endured it for so many days, but finally I couldn't stand it anymore. Now I want to see what's going on.

"Don't waste time, hurry up and come to the meeting. We should hurry and finish the meeting before the people in the yard outside come over."

"Hurry up."

"..."

"..."

The urging voices became more urgent, and Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai rushed around, calling people while watching the time.

Sha Zhu and his apprentices earn a lot every day. If they miss out on making money because of meetings, that would be a real loss. After all, all the money will eventually flow into the pockets of the courtyard, and it is all their own money.

"What era is this? Why are we still doing the old-fashioned things? Holding meetings, what kind of meetings are we holding..."

"There's not much to do anyway, so you can go over and listen."

"..."

"..."

There were many voices, mixed with complaints. Most people reluctantly walked to the center of the yard and sat down slowly.

Those who have families with them are anxious and want to go back to cook, so that they can seize favorable terrain as soon as possible and enjoy a better life.

And those bachelors just look like they don't care.

At most it will just cost some money.

Eat while watching TV.

"It's been a few years since we held a meeting. Did the sun rise from the west today?"

"It must be something big, something so important that we have to hold a meeting."

"So you guys know the inside story? Why don't you tell everyone about it in advance?"

"..."

"..."

Everyone was talking and whispering to each other.

When we were chatting happily, we saw familiar figures walking towards us quickly, and many people had smiles on their faces.

"Silly Zhu! Come here quickly, I saved a seat for you."

"Your position is not good, my position is better."

“Here, here…”

"..."

"..."

Before the conference even started, He Yuzhu had become a hot commodity. Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale, and he felt that he had started off badly.

What a bunch of snobs.

Don't think I don't know what you are planning.

Isn't it just to make good relations so that you can get a good place to watch TV later? If the meeting is held later, the words "Uncle Manager" will become a joke.

"Please be quiet for a moment. I don't want to take up too much of your time, but there are so many things happening right now that we have to hold a meeting to resolve them."

"We'll try to keep it short."

“I hope everyone can cooperate.”

"..."

"..."

Yi Zhonghai coughed a few times and spoke loudly. The voices of discussion disappeared, and a lot of eyes looked over at the same time: "Second Master, say a few words."

"Well... the thing is, recently a lot of people from outside yards have come to our yard, causing great trouble to our daily life. The two boys in my family brought a group of people to maintain order. Do you think there are people working for free in the world? We must pay them so that those who maintain order can get the corresponding compensation." Liu Haizhong said slowly.

Several young and strong men became excited.

Who can resist having a little more money on hand?

Yi Zhonghai took over the conversation: "This money will not be paid by everyone in the courtyard. Whoever makes the money should shoulder the responsibility."

"Now that things have come to this, shouldn't some people stand up and express their opinions..."

"It's not nice to name someone in public."

After saying this, he looked towards a certain place.

At first, when everyone heard that they had to pay, they were a little disgusted. But when the spearhead was pointed at them, they all sat on the Diaoyutai.

"I say, three uncles, you are not mobilizing so many people just for such a small matter, are you? Maintaining order is a voluntary act, they don't have to maintain it, and it's the same if I hire new people. The young men in our hospital are unwilling to do it, but there are plenty of people outside who are willing to do it." He Yuzhu said loudly.

Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian were shocked, but the most anxious one was Yan Jiefang: "Shazhu is right, I volunteered, I don't want any money."

"Only dogs ask for money! Three gentlemen, I thank you for your kindness, but I really can't accept this money. Whoever asks for it will make me angry."

"I serve everyone, and everyone serves me. We are all from the same courtyard, so what's wrong with helping each other? If all you talk about is money, how can you still be humane?"

"..."

"..."

All the friendly forces that had been secretly connected turned against them.

Maintaining order represents power.

Although the power is not great, it brings many intangible benefits. Sha Zhu does not receive a salary, but he gets much more than if he received a salary.

What they said at the beginning was still normal, but gradually Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui's faces changed because some of them were swearing.

"Be quiet, we haven't finished talking yet."

"Just one question! Can Shazhu represent our yard and hire someone to maintain order? This is a right of the yard, not an individual."

"So after discussion, we came up with a solution, which is to form a security team in the name of the courtyard, and all financial expenses must be paid by Sha Zhu and his apprentices."

"Otherwise, who will be held responsible if something happens to someone outside in the yard? In the end, won't everyone share the responsibility? How can people be so selfish?"

"Everyone should think about it carefully in your mind."

"Does what we say make sense?"

"Don't think this is nonsense. Aren't there enough things happening in recent years? Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the elderly and children."

"It's not good to hurt anyone."

"..."

"..."

The people who jumped out in a hurry were stunned for a moment. They had never thought about the problem from this perspective. Although the vast majority of people were well-educated, there were also a small number of people with low moral standards.

This is indeed an issue that we have to deal with at the moment.

"Do you know how much Sha Zhu and his apprentices earn every day? Why should all of us in our courtyard bear the risk just because they make money?"

"So the three of us discussed for a long time and agreed that Shazhu and his team should give the money to our courtyard, and we will manage and distribute it uniformly, so that everyone present here can benefit."
