Chapter 153 Dumbfounded

Donghai Railway Station, also known as New Passenger Station, is located on the north bank of Suzhou River in Zhabei District. It was built on the basis of the original East Railway Station in 1984.

In order to distinguish it from the original old railway station, it is called the new passenger station by the locals.

The south square of the new passenger station looks very grand now, especially there are many high-rise buildings such as shopping malls, office buildings, and hotels around the square, which makes many passengers feel that the city that never sleeps is not for nothing after leaving the station.

But the North Square at the back of the new passenger station, especially the large area of ​​the old town extending from the North Square, is another scene.

As long as you walk out of the North Square and walk around, you can see that many places are surrounded by endless shantytowns.

And because the living conditions in the shantytowns are complex, renovation or relocation is far away.

Let alone now, even after more than ten years, there will still be no improvement in many places, but it will become more and more dilapidated.

In this large slum area, many people at the bottom are struggling to survive.

These "urban villages" hidden in the shadow of high-rise buildings are the lost places of Shanghai, an international metropolis, and the most unbearable places in the city.

Apart from the elderly, most of the people living in the shantytowns are migrant workers or peddlers doing small businesses to make a living.

Of course, there are also some young local aborigines.

It's just that these people obviously have hands and feet, but they just sit on the subsistence allowances and wait to die. They belong to the least enterprising kind.

The truly ambitious locals have already moved out of the shantytowns through hard work.

Just like Zhou, the richest man in Shanghai who had just been arrested two years ago, was just a little ruffian in a shanty town.

Only the aborigines who eat and wait to die will not be able to grasp the unique way to get rich, and have been entangled with all kinds of ghosts and monsters in slums like shanty towns.

Not far from the North Square of Xinke Station, there is a Sun Mountain Road.This road was originally called Taiyang Temple Road, which is named after a "Temple of the Sun" here.

The Sun Temple used to be the Holy Land of the White Lotus Sect during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It was a missionary temple developed by Huang Tiandao, one of the important branches of the White Lotus Sect, in Shanghai.

The Taiyangshan Road area has always been a place of mixed fish and dragons from before liberation to the present, and is nicknamed the "rogue's den" of Zhabei District.

In a small building in this "Hooligan's Cave", a fierce mahjong game is going on at this time.

Mahjong, a national quintessence, has been loved by people from all walks of life in Shanghai since the Republic of China.

In many film and television works, you can see that many bigwigs in the fashion beach of the Republic of China are very enthusiastic about it, and it can be called one of the most popular entertainment activities.

This is their favorite way of pastime, especially for the natives at the bottom.

After all, if you win today, I will win tomorrow, all the money is in the same pot, and there will not be too much cost. The main thing is cost performance.

For many aborigines who ate and waited to die, not playing mahjong every day would kill them.

In the room on the east side of the small dilapidated building, there was a lot of smoke. It was obvious that the women who were playing mahjong were old smokers.

"Four."

"Touch! I said Yanhong, you should be careful, if I touch you again, I will take care of all three."

"Tch, Sister Du recently posted. I'm afraid you will touch it two or three times? She won't panic even if you touch it ten more times."

"That's right, they're all smoking Zhonghua, Yanhong is getting bigger!"

"Really! Yanhong, we sisters, what is the way to make money and guide us, don't make a fortune by yourself!"

And Du Yanhong, who was sitting there calmly and being praised by the three people, was none other than the silly old lady whom the ex-husband asked the younger brother to find to frame Ma Liang.

She said with a proud face: "It's just a small amount of money now, maybe there will be a lot of money in a few days."

This silly old lady is still thinking about taking advantage of the food poisoning incident to extort a large sum of money from Ma Liang.

"Yanhong, then you have to treat someone, the restaurant will arrange one!"

"That's right, I have to go to the International Hotel to have a meal. Yanhong, this little ostentation is not a problem, is it?"

Du Yanhong said very grandly after hearing the words: "What are international restaurants? When my money arrives, I can take you to the Bund to have a restaurant."

While arranging the mahjong tiles, she also had a cigarette in her mouth, half of her mouth was pursed and she pretended to be eloquent, she looked like a charter woman in "Kung Fu".

"Haha, then we'll just wait. Don't be stingy, Yanhong."

"How is it possible? Our sister Du is not that kind of person. When has she ever been stingy?"

Several people complimented Du Yanhong again, which greatly satisfied the vanity of this silly old lady.

"Arrive at the station, clear the front door, feel for yourself, all of them are right and wrong, and straight to the point!
One hundred per person, give me the money quickly.

Let me just say that my old lady deserves to be lucky recently, and she can get such a good card, so I will ask if there is any one of you who is not convinced. "

Du Yanhong made a big fuss again, and now she is even more complacent.

"Ah, stop playing, stop playing, Yanhong, you've been the third one to hit this afternoon."

"That's right, I can't play mahjong anymore. Why are you so lucky, Sister Du?"

Du Yanhong grinned from ear to ear, feeling that she had hit the God of Wealth recently, how could she have had such luck playing mahjong in the past.

A few people were arguing, when her cell phone rang suddenly.

Seeing that it was a landline call, Du Yanhong didn't dare to hang up directly for fear of delaying her business, so she quickly picked it up.

"Du Yanhong, right, this is the JA District People's Court.

Our court has accepted the dispute case between [Red Lips Chuanchuanxiang] Catering Co., Ltd. and you on the right of reputation, and you are hereby notified to bring your ID card and come to the service hall of our hospital within three days to collect the materials for responding to the lawsuit and the court summons."

Du Yanhong was dumbfounded holding the phone, what the hell?Defamation?
If she hadn't heard the words [Red Lips String Fragrance], she would have thought it was a scam call, and would have scolded her back on the spot.

She confirmed weakly: "Don't you call scams, right?

Obviously I am a victim!How come they turned around and sued me, that's not right!
Are you really the People's Court of JA District? Are you sure you are right? "

"Is it a court? You can call 114 and check our landline number.

Inform me that I have given it to you, and you must come to collect the subpoena within three days, otherwise you will bear the consequences.

Let me remind you, hurry up and find a lawyer, the claim amount is 100 million.If you lose the lawsuit and can’t afford to pay, you can’t eat and walk away.”

After finishing speaking, the staff of the court hung up the phone directly, and did not talk to her at all.

Du Yanhong really dialed 114 to check the number, and then she was completely dumbfounded.I didn't even notice the beeping busy tone coming from the phone, and I couldn't believe my ears at all!

Really sue me?Claim 100 million?

I haven't even started blackmailing them yet, but why did I sue my mother instead, I feel very strange when I think about it.

Regardless of what went wrong with this matter, she couldn't handle it anyway, so she had to find the big brother behind to solve it.Otherwise, if she really loses the lawsuit, she can't afford it.

Du Yanhong quickly pondered in her mind, how much does the old lady only earn this time by accepting the job, and if she loses, she will pay with her life!
No, she must not be this fool, she must let them come forward.

The silly old lady was so frightened that she didn't even have the mood to play mahjong, so she rushed home, shut herself in the room and quietly dialed a number to go out.

"Hey, big hairy, that's a bitch, and Nong is a fool, why did [Red Lips String of Fragrance] go to the court and sue me?

The court said it asked me to get a subpoena and sue me for defamation infringement, claiming 100 million.

Allah tells you, I am not capable of dealing with this matter, you must be responsible to deal with it, otherwise I will fight it out and reveal the truth."

"What the hell? A subpoena? Sue you?" Da Mao was also dumbfounded. At first he really thought he had heard it wrong.

Da Mao is just a nickname, his real name is Mao Xinghua, he is one of the younger brothers of his ex-husband, and he is also responsible for finding Du Yanhong.

Du Yanhong shouted anxiously: "I don't care, Ming Chaonong must go to the court with me to collect the summons."

"Don't be in a hurry, wait until I go to inquire about it." Mao Xinghua hurriedly comforted him.

He was also a little panicked, after all, this matter was too strange.How can a food poisoning restaurant sue the victim instead? There is no such unreasonable thing in the world.

Mao Xinghua never imagined how stupid the pig teammate he found was.

If it weren't for the hard evidence, the court's work progress would not be so efficient.Of course, this was also due to the presence of Attorney Feng.

The relationship between the barrister and the court is already very delicate, so it's not easy to control this face.

After hanging up Du Yanhong's phone call, Mao Xinghua hurriedly asked his friends to find contacts and go to the JA District People's Court to find out what happened.

After more than two hours, I finally figured out the whole story from the replies from several friends.

Mao Xinghua was dumbfounded again, [Red Lips String Fragrance] really sued Du Yanhong, and indeed claimed 100 million.

According to the information that my friend inquired from insiders in the court, the other party's attorney was a well-known lawyer in Shanghai, and he claimed that the evidence was quite strong.

Now he finally panicked, he didn't even bother to eat dinner, and hurried to report to the boss.

When Mao Xinghua found Su Mingyuan, his good brother Zhou Yongqiang was holding a newspaper and talking to his ex-husband dejectedly.
