In the morning, in the steel rolling mill courtyard, in the backyard, at Wang’s house.

"Mom, do we have enough food at home? If not, I'll go back to my parents' house and bring some over!"

Yu Li and Su Chunfang both currently have jobs, which are making matchboxes that Officer Wang got for them from the neighborhood office. It is hard to say how much they can earn from making matchboxes.

But at least it can kill time and make some money, so it's a pretty good job!

Others want this job, haha, get in line!

Mother Wang laughed and shook her head repeatedly.

"That's not the case, silly girl, don't worry, we have enough food at home!

Besides, we still have your father, your husband, and your brother-in-law. Can you let us starve?"

Yu Li nodded a little embarrassedly. Ever since she married into the Wang family, she had thought that the food and treatment were pretty good except for the first few days. After all, this is the procedure these days, isn't it?

But I never expected it, it’s not!

Suddenly, she was certain in her heart that her sister was not worthy of her brother-in-law!

That’s right, not worthy at all!

Her brother-in-law deserves better...

"Okay, just finish this pile, and let's make our lunch. Remember to smoke less."

Ms. Su Chunfang gave this warning, obviously being prepared for the situation in the courtyard.

Yu Li smiled and nodded.

"I know, Mom, I know!"

"That's right! You're not very familiar with our courtyard yet. When you get familiar with it, you'll understand that what mom said is right!"

"I can see it now, especially the Central Court. There's something wrong with that posture. It's that Yi Zhonghai!"

Look, the eyes of the people are quite sharp!

"Yes, yes, yes, what my wife said is absolutely right!" Aunt Wang grinned happily, "Come, let me tell my wife again, our courtyard is very lively!"

-

East Street Tavern, backyard.

Manager Wang and Uncle Niu were chatting happily while holding a cup of Pu'er tea.

"Uncle Niu, your Pu'er is pretty good!"

"That's right! What scraps can you, Master Niu, come up with to fool our own manager?"

Uncle Niu had a smile on his face, but it was obvious that he could also see a hint of sadness.

"Master Niu, don't worry. Even if we worry until our hair turns white, there is nothing we can do. We might as well let nature take its course!

The worst that can happen in our pubs is that they can just cut out some of the side dishes, and as for the alcohol...if anything goes, they can just limit the quantity.

In today's situation, making money is not the most important thing, the most important thing is to survive!"

Uncle Niu was speechless. He didn't expect that his manager could be able to persuade others!

"Well, I know what you said, but this situation is indeed a bit troublesome! It's not difficult for a lone man like me, but what do you think the other people in our tavern should do?!"

Uncle Niu is very concerned about the country and the people, but it is of little use.

"Xu Feng, Ma Qiang, Wang Cuizhi, and Zhou Hongmei are all old members of our tavern, and they have many family members, too!"

Uncle Niu frowned, lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth without smoking.

Wang Gang poured him another cup of tea. There was no way he could comfort him in this situation, so he could only let things take their own course.

Although he has a space, he can't farm, right?

Besides, the food stored in there was probably only enough food for his family for the next three years, so there was nothing he could do.

The most I can do is to help those around me when they are in trouble!

It is said that if you are rich, you should help the world; if you are poor, you should take care of yourself!

His body can't withstand the torrent of the times! Even the dust of the times is not something a human can withstand.

Besides, don’t underestimate people’s motivation to live, right?

"Uncle Niu, Manager Wang, the wine is here! It's time for us to move the wine!"

Ma Qiang came out from somewhere wearing an apron, and smiled at the two people chatting.

"Okay, let's go now!"

"Don't worry, we have Manager Wang. This little bit of wine is nothing to worry about, haha!"

Uncle Niu was delighted and laughed loudly.

Moving the bar is a serious matter! When you are busy, you don’t think too much about it.

Night, tavern.

Although the pub business has been affected to some extent, fortunately it is not yet a very serious situation, and there are still some drinkers in the pub every night.

It's just that there are about 20% fewer people than usual.

Manager Wang was still sitting in the corner, drinking by himself, occasionally throwing a few flowering beans into his mouth, which was a priority.

"Food is really scarce these days. I walked around several streets a few days ago before I could find 95% of the food I needed!"

"Who said it wasn't? I went outside to dig wild vegetables when I had some free time! My goodness, the soil has been scraped off layer by layer! You can only see some of them in places far away from our city!"

"Thanks to our small family, this tavern is affordable. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to come!"

"I don't know when it will end, ah!"

"Just hold on, we bought a lot more winter vegetables last year, this time it's like a blind cat catching a dead mouse!"

"That's true. Just hold on for now! Manager Wang also said that life is not easy for everyone right now!"

"Of course. No matter what you do, you have to eat, right?"

"That's right, come on, let's go! It's time to go back!"

"Together!"

Wang Gang raised his glass in the corner with a smile and clinked glasses with everyone else.

It's time to go back.

The courtyard of the steel rolling mill.

Eunuch Yi Zhonghai came out of the deaf old lady's room with great satisfaction, the smile on his face difficult to hide.

What a godsend, what a godsend!

This is indeed a godsend for Yi Zhonghai!

It was worth it that Yi Zhonghai wandered around the courtyard after get off work. First of all, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui agreed to hold a courtyard meeting.

This is the long-awaited Siheyuan meeting!

Secondly, the Jia family, their Yi family, He Yuzhu, and the old lady in the backyard, plus a group of passers-by who took advantage of this opportunity to be involved, their fighting power is quite strong this time!

The goal is simple. For passers-by, they want a way to live or to be given hope; for those people headed by Yi Zhonghai, they just want to cause trouble!

It would be best to take advantage of this opportunity to severely punish Wang Gang. It would be even better if we could cause him enough trouble!

Although there are not many bad people these days, their courtyard is full of outstanding people and beautiful scenery!

A gathering place of pure evil.

The very pure kind!

What Yi Zhonghai and the others didn’t know was that everything they did was seen by Baibai and Xiaoheizi. They were the cameras, and their purpose was to guard against these beasts in the courtyard!
