Siheyuan: Wang Bo's Happy Life

The private conversation between Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu was overheard by a deaf old lady nearby. She sighed softly and thought to herself that she would have a good chat with Sha Zhu in a few days.

"Okay, everyone, please be quiet."

Yan Bugui stood up and raised his hand to press down, "Just like what the uncle said just now, don't do things that are not conducive to unity, don't say things that are not conducive to unity, everyone can just complain, Yang Ruihua just set a bad example, I will criticize her when I go back."

"As for this money, it's still 20 cents for each of the households that farm the land. People who don't farm the land can't pay this money. Uncle, don't you agree?"

Yan Bugui had a good plan at first. He wanted to get all the residents to share the fine so that his family could pay less. However, he didn't expect the people to be so wild. According to their calculations, he would have to pay more, so it would be better for him to just pay 50 cents directly.

"I disagree!"

Wang Bo stood up, slapped the table, and roared in anger.

“Where is the responsibility?

Where is the responsibility?

Mission, where is it?!"

The three roars stunned everyone in the compound.

Wang Bo pointed his finger at Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui one by one, his face full of anger. "For so many years, whenever there was honor or praise, you were always the first to take it. Now when there is criticism or punishment, why do you all hide among the people and become cowards?"

"It was you three who decided to farm the land. If those three guys hadn't caused the trouble, we would have definitely received praise for coming up with such a good idea to solve the food problem. All the good things would have been yours. Now that you have been punished a little, you are thinking of evading responsibility. I, Wang Bo, will be the first one to disagree!"

Liu Haizhong got angry and slammed the table and shouted, "Wang Bo, what are you talking about? Who is trying to evade responsibility? Who is a coward? Explain yourself clearly!"

"That's right, Wang Bo, how can you talk like that?"

Yan Bugui also widened his eyes.

Wang Bo took out a dollar and slammed it on the table, his face filled with indignation:

"As the new Third Uncle, I look down on you old guys. If you still have a sense of responsibility, pay up the fines! If you really can't take responsibility, give up your position now and step down. We have many young people in our compound who are willing to give advice to the neighbors!"

After Wang Bo finished speaking, he changed his tone and said, "And you, Old Yi, you were the one who made the final decision. If you say this matter has nothing to do with you, I will pay for you."

"But don't run for the position of manager of our compound anymore, because you have no responsibility, no courage, and no determination to be responsible to the people to the end!"

After Wang Bo finished speaking, he looked at the people sitting around him and shouted righteously: "When there are difficulties, leaders rush to the front, and when there are benefits, the masses are put first. It's time to test the cadres!"

"Neighbors, comrades, open your eyes and take a good look at who is truly serving the people!"

The entire compound was silent for a few seconds, and then thunderous applause broke out. The onlookers all understood that Wang Bo was forcing the big guys to pay up. If they paid, we wouldn't have to!

"Wang Bo said it very well. To be a leader you must have a sense of responsibility. Otherwise, don't be one!"

"Wang Bo is right. With their status as the stewards, the three of them have taken so much good things. Why should everyone bear the brunt of the consequences? How can this be possible?"

"I agree with Wang Bo. They should be asked to pay all the money!"

"If you don't pay the difference, I'll go up!"

Qin Huairu's eyes turned, she leaned towards Sha Zhu and said, "Zhu Zi, Wang Bo is so young and can be the third uncle. You are not worse than him. You can also give it a try. When the time comes, our whole family will support you."

As long as Qin Huairu doesn't have to pay, she would be happy to add fuel to the fire and let Sha Zhu rush up to stimulate the situation. Those three old guys who are reluctant to give up their positions will definitely pay the money.

Sha Zhu had wanted to try it in the first place, and after being encouraged by Qin Huairu, he became even more excited. He stood up, staggered to the table with his crutches, took out five dollars and slapped them on the table.

"I, He Yuzhu, am willing to pay five dollars to make up for everyone's fines. Tell me if I can be a responsible uncle!"

Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai and the other two turned pale.

Seeing Sha Zhu directly give him five more dollars, the neighbors sitting below were so happy that they thought someone would actually go up to challenge him, and they applauded and cheered crazily for Sha Zhu.

Seeing his arch-enemy Sha Zhu in the limelight, Xu Damao, who had been watching the fun, became unhappy. He sat on a stool and pointed at the smug Sha Zhu and shouted:

"Silly Zhu, don't be so rude. You only have five dollars and you want to be a big shot. You're so flattering!"

"What are you talking about?" Sha Zhu looked down on Xu Damao. "Xu Damao, you can only talk nonsense there. Do you have the guts to come up?"

"Silly Zhu, what are you talking about?" Xu Damao glared at him. "Brother, just sit here and don't go up. What can you do?"

"Are you unable to come up or get up? Do you want me to find you an old Chinese doctor?"

As long as there are no women around, Shazhu's brain works well and he immediately starts to make fun of Xu Damao.

Everyone who understood what was going on laughed again, which made the proud Xu Damao angry. He stood up and yelled at Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, what are you talking about? You are the one who can't get up. How dare you say that to me? You are so old and still don't have a woman. You are destined to be a bachelor for life!"

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more chaotic, Liu Haizhong interrupted the quarrel loudly, "Xu Damao, stop talking. Shazhu, take back the money too!"

"That won't do," Sha Zhu still wanted to be a boss. If he was asked to put the money away, he would have no chance.

"If you don't want to take responsibility, then step aside. I, He Yuzhu, am willing to serve the people!"

Yi Zhonghai, who was sitting in the corner, stood up at this time. He took out three dollars from his pocket, put them on the table, and said to Sha Zhu:

"Zhu Zi, please collect the money first. The three of us didn't have a chance to speak just now, but it's not because we don't take responsibility. Since we three made the decision, we will naturally make up the money. Lao Liu and Lao Yan, don't you agree?"

During this period of time, Yi Zhonghai has been developing slowly and waiting for a chance to make a comeback. How could he ruin his reputation and end his leadership career just for a few dollars?

It’s this Wang Bo who is too troublesome. We must find a way to deal with him as soon as possible. And this stupid Zhu also deserves to be dealt with!

Liu Haizhong, who was standing next to him, saw Yi Zhonghai put down three dollars, and he also took out three one-dollar bills and put them on the table.

"Old Yi is right. As the head of our compound, how can I not be responsible?"

Even if Yi Zhonghai became a sixth-level worker, his salary was not bad. Besides, his family was well-off, so he didn't care about these few dollars at all. As a seventh-level worker, Liu Haizhong had never been short of money, so three dollars was not much for him.

It’s a pity for Yan Fugui.

He originally wanted to arrange for his wife to shout a few times and let the whole compound pay a fine, so that his family would have to pay less. He never expected that Wang Bo would do such a thing.
