The Happy Life of Xu Damao in Siheyuan

"Dong dong dong."

When she heard a knock on the door, she looked up and saw Liu Haizhong, the leader of the task force, walking in with a big belly and a smile.

Yu Haitang asked politely: "Team Leader Liu, do you have any manuscripts to publish?"

The second uncle, Liu Haizhong, handed over the manuscript and said, "This is what Director Li personally instructed. Just broadcast it before get off work. By the way, I heard that you and Yang Weimin had a falling out?"

Yu Haitang nodded calmly and said: "That's all a matter of old sesame seeds and rotten millet."

Liu Haixin was overjoyed and said: "Well, Haitang, you come to my house to sit down during dinner, and I'll treat you to a meal and talk about some things."

"Then...okay."

Yu Haitang was instinctively reluctant, but she was just an ordinary announcer, and she couldn't afford to offend Liu Haizhong, so she had no choice but to agree against her will.

During this time, she clearly felt the incredible magic of power. She was only a high-ranking official, but it could make people breathless. If Liu Haizhong made any excessive demands to her, she would have to rack her brains to refuse.

way of thinking.

Yu Haitang finished reading the speech with great concern, and then rode a slightly old second-hand bicycle non-stop back to the courtyard. When passing by the bicycle shop at the entrance of the alley, he casually asked about the price of Feige brand second-hand bicycles.

"It costs 80 yuan for 90% new, 60 yuan for 80% new. Second-hand electric tubes are charged separately. The price has not dropped, it is 45 yuan!"

Yu Haitang took a breath. It seemed that everyone had gotten the news, and the purchase price of the bicycle shop was quickly in line with the times. In other words, if Yu Li's Flying Pigeon bicycle was not sold, it would also cost the top of the motorcycle.

With all the accessories, the price is only one hundred and twenty-five yuan!

I lost more than 100 yuan before and after this.

When Yu Haitang returned to the courtyard, she saw the third uncle lying on the rocking chair, humming a tune happily, and the radio was playing loudly in the yard. At this moment, he didn't even worry about the electricity bill. The outside of the house was covered with hanging

The chicken, duck, beef, mutton and pork we bought were as lively as the Chinese New Year, and the third aunt was equally happy while cooking.

"Teacher Yan, your car was permanently sold?" Yu Haitang suddenly understood the whole story.

When he mentioned this, Yan Bugui immediately smiled and said proudly: "Well, Haoxuan sold it yesterday. Otherwise, if the news came out today, I would cry to death. Now, hehe, I am

I made a net profit of three hundred yuan when I changed hands!"

The third aunt happily echoed: "I heard the news on the radio this morning, and I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to inquire about it. The price dropped so much all of a sudden, but my father was wise and saw that the price was good, so he decisively sold it.

Now, with the money I earn, I can buy two new cars!"

Sold for four hundred and ninety yuan.

Yu Haitang calculated it and realized that this was already the highest price that could be obtained in private. He did not expect that the third uncle, who had always been stingy, would be so courageous. There was no doubt that he was the biggest winner.

When she pushed open the door of Yan Jiecheng's house, she saw Yan Jiecheng's despairing eyes, and her heart skipped a beat. Her ominous premonition came true.

Yan Jiecheng looked sad and felt like he had lost a lot of hair. He told Yu Haitang: "I heard the news early in the morning. Yu Li didn't even go to work. She pushed the car and went to find someone to buy it. I just don't know if it will work now.

.”

Yu Haitang shook his head: "I don't think there is much hope."

Sure enough, Yu Li came back pushing the brand new Feige bicycle as if she had lost her soul.

Not selling it, Yu Li hugged Yu Haitang, cried loudly, and recounted the unbearable experience today.

Early in the morning, she rushed to someone's house with her cart and went to do the business. As a result, they got the news early. They ignored Yuli's lies and just said she was willing to take away the motorcycle tube for fifty yuan.

Later, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative, and when she saw the price of a brand new Feige bicycle of the same model, she felt that her heartbeat was about to stop. She reluctantly went to the bicycle shop to bargain, but in the end she could only

It's 140 yuan, and that's with a friction tube.

Even if you sell it, you will still lose a full one hundred yuan!

Yu Li burst into tears, regretting that her intestines were turning green: "Why are you so greedy? I insist on selling it for more than 600 yuan. Others are offering such generous prices, but I still don't agree..."

Yan Jiecheng also said weakly: "Didn't I say that the price was about the same at the time? You insisted on holding on and said that you should consider it. It's better now..."

Yu Haitang glared at him, dissatisfied with Yan Jiecheng's cowardice, and complained: "Brother-in-law, please shut up. Why are you still making sarcastic remarks?"

Yan Jiecheng got scared and just muttered: "I also planned to make a lot of money so that I could have the confidence to break up with my dad. Now it's better. My dad's property has been sold permanently and he has made a lot of money.

From now on, I will have to look at my dad’s face even more, ugh..."

Yu Li had a bitter look on her face, thinking that there was more to it than that. In order to collect the money for this time, they borrowed everything their relatives could borrow, even including 10% interest. It was all over now, first of all

Not to mention whether they can make money, if they don't pay off their debt immediately, they will have to wait for the interest to compound, and eventually the debt will pile up.

Yu Li calmed down, still holding on to a glimmer of hope, and asked tremblingly: "Haitang, you are a clerk in the publicity department of the steel rolling mill. You are well-informed. Tell me, will the price of this bicycle be just that?"

Temporary regulation, can it be adjusted back later?”

"It should be impossible to pull back again." Yu Haitang sighed, shook his head and told the cruel truth, "Bicycles and watches have moved out of the high-price zone, and the prices have dropped so much, which shows that we have overcome technical barriers.

The cost has been greatly reduced, so how can it be adjusted back? The price will only be lower in the future."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng almost collapsed to the ground.

"Brother-in-law, sister, we must recognize the reality now and stop having unrealistic illusions. The first goal now is to quickly recover the principal and pay off the foreign debt first. If it takes a long time, the interest will not be small.

The amount. In order to borrow this money, our parents became guarantors." Yu Haitang, who was watching clearly, analyzed clearly at this time.

"But now that this bicycle is in our hands, there are still people rushing to buy it. The price of selling it to a bicycle shop is only 140 yuan at best, and we can't even get back the money!" Yu Li was desperate!

said.

Yu Haitang pondered for a while and said: "Sister, actually there is a very suitable candidate right now."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Li's crying stopped immediately, and Yan Jiecheng seemed to be grasping at straws and asked quickly: "Who is it?"

"Xu Damao!"

"He?" Yu Li's expression suddenly became unnatural.

Yu Haitang didn't know the emotional changes in her sister's heart, and continued to analyze: "You think, the only person in the whole yard who has spare money now and needs to buy a bicycle for transportation is Xu Damao. His idea of ​​selling the car from the beginning was not just to replace it. Is it a new car? On weekdays, I see that he doesn’t have a mobility scooter when commuting to and from get off work. It must be because he didn’t have time to buy one, or he didn’t have a ticket on hand and was delayed!”

"As long as we sell it to him at the second-hand market price, I believe he will be tempted. If he can get a little bit back, it will be a little bit."

Yan Jiecheng clapped his hands and quickly advised: "That's right! I think what my sister-in-law said is very reasonable. Selling to Xu Damao is our only option, as long as it is higher than the price of the car repair shop."

Yu Li looked tangled and resisted in her heart, and hesitantly told the truth: "But Xu Damao and I had some unpleasant quarrels. I was thinking about buying a car, so I had nothing to ask for from him, so I asked him several times

I even pretended not to notice him when he greeted me, and we don’t have much interaction with him on weekdays. I guess he also has some opinions about me..."

Yan Jiecheng was taken aback. This was the first time he knew about this. He immediately said with hatred: "How can you do this? You need people to face forward, and there is no need for people to face backward. It's better now, there are

Please beg him, you blocked the road!"

"Besides, he is now the leader of the steel rolling mill, and we are just ordinary people. How can we turn our backs on others and show shame to them?"

Yu Li was embarrassed and aggrieved. She couldn't express her pain. She thought to herself, "Do you know how much your wife paid to buy this car?"

Didn’t I just want to keep a distance from Xu Damao, forget about that unspeakable past, and live a good life?

Five days, do you know how I came here for those five days?

Yu Haitang rolled his eyes and said with a thought: "I don't think Xu Damao is the kind of person who cares about everything. As long as I apologize and give you some gifts to express my feelings, he shouldn't care about this."

"What's more, I will also help. I think Xu Damao should give me this little face."

Yu Haitang also has a little selfishness. She has been inspecting Xu Damao these days and is very satisfied with it in all aspects. Her character has never been hidden. She originally planned to develop Jinshui Tower, but who would have thought that now the situation has changed drastically, and her work

His sales volume skyrocketed, and at the same time Xu Damao also rose to prominence, and the status and circles of both parties suddenly widened a huge gap.

It just so happened that she took this opportunity to get in touch with Xu Damao. She had a strong feeling that if she missed this opportunity, she would definitely regret it to death. Now that Xu Damao is in full swing and has become the deputy director, there are many beautiful single female workers in the factory.

There is no chance to catch up.

It was a lie if she said she wasn't moved.
