The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 269 Yi Zhonghai borrowed money from Fan Jinyou, and Fan Jinyou wanted to compete with the Li family
Donglaishun is a big restaurant in Beijing.

It's time for lunch.

The place was full of guests and lively.

Fan Jinyou looked at Butler Bai timidly: "Brother Bai, 150 yuan is indeed a lot, but there's nothing I can do about it."

"I'm in my 20s this year, so I have to get married."

"So I want to take this opportunity to tidy up the house."

Butler Bai picked up a chopstick of mutton, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and said vaguely: "Jin You, it's not that I won't help you, 150 yuan is really too much."

In the past two days, Butler Bai wanted to complete the mission of the Houhou family.

In order to establish Huang Chenji's public-private partnership tailor shop, the tailor shops on the street would not dare to open a public-private partnership.

Not to mention 150 yuan, even 200 yuan would be lent to Fan Jinyou.

but.

Fan Jin is really great at having this guy do things.

Before waiting, Butler Bai continued to fire.

He destroyed Chen Ji Tailor Shop to pieces.

Not only do no customers come to the door on weekdays.

Even private manager Chen Fangxuan and tailor Chen Xueru were assigned to do odd jobs by him.

Chen Ji Tailor Shop has basically become obsolete.

In this case, Fan Jinyou loses his role.

Businessmen pursue profits and never waste money on useless people.

It was only that Mr. Hou thought that Fan Jin would be of some use to him, so Butler Bai continued to coax him.

"It's indeed a bit much."

Fan Jinyou laughed twice, rolled his eyes, patted his chest and said: "But don't worry, I am a cadre of the street office, and I will definitely not default on my debts.

Besides, I control the tailor shop and can buy some low-quality cloth from your shop. "

Fan Jin hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "We can pay for the goods at the price of high-quality cotton."

As soon as this word comes out.

Butler Bai was so shocked that he couldn't even hold his chopsticks.

This guy is so brave.

The price of low-quality cloth is more than three times lower than that of high-quality cloth.

Before liberation, the Hou family often colluded with people from Guanzikou to pass off inferior goods and obtain huge profits.

After liberation, the Hou family wanted to continue operating in this way, but no one dared to take over.

No matter how much money they spend, those rusty-headed guys still look upright.

So much so that the batch of inferior cloth stocked by the Hou family had been sitting in the warehouse for several years.

This is a good opportunity.

"Jin You, it depends on what you said. We are good buddies and we should help each other." When Butler Bai saw the profit, his expression immediately changed and he became excited.

"Yes, yes, good buddy."

Fan Jinyou stood up and poured Butler Bai a glass of wine.

He has already figured out, how can he live a good life with that salary?

It's better to make more money while you have the power.

Moreover.

Those pieces of cloth were sold to the common people.

What do those idiots know!
The two of them exchanged cups and cups, as if they were a family.

After three drinks, the food was almost done.

Butler Bai picked up his toothpick and said, "How much low-quality cloth do you want to buy this time?"

Fan Jinyou didn't understand this at all, so he tried to say: "Can I earn 150 yuan?"

"You are still too young. Chen Ji Tailor Shop is a small shop.

The monthly purchase volume is only thirty or fifty pieces of cloth.

If you want to earn that much, all the goods you buy need to be low-quality cloth. "

Butler Bai pretended to be concerned and followed the instructions: "That won't work, it will be easily discovered by others. You need to buy half of the high-quality cloth to cover it up!"

Fan Jinyou was the first public manager he pulled into trouble.

We have to cooperate more often in the future, so naturally we can't let him be caught easily.

Fan Jinyou was in trouble: "Then I still need 75 yuan to clean up the house, right?"

"Don't you have any relatives or friends? You can lend it for a while. When we cooperate again next month, why don't you pay back the money?" Butler Bai gave an idea.

As a businessman, it is a good virtue to avoid hawks when you see rabbits.

Fan Jinyou frowned and thought for a moment.

His mother was so mean that she offended everyone.

Those relatives and friends have stopped interacting with his family for a long time.

Moreover, 75 yuan is a large amount of money for ordinary people.

Who would be willing to lend it to others.

maybe should
Fan Jinyou thought of someone.

I remember borrowing money.

Fan Jinyou ended the banquet in a hurry.

I made an appointment with Butler Bai to buy cloth tomorrow, got on my bicycle and went straight to the courtyard.

Among all the people he knew, the one with the highest salary was Yi Zhonghai, the oldest man in the courtyard.

As a seventh-level fitter, Yi Zhonghai earns more than 80 yuan a month.

Yi Zhonghai has no children, so he must have saved a lot of money over the years.

It would be a pity to keep that money, you might as well lend it to him.

With this in mind, Fan Jinyou knocked on Yi Zhonghai's door.

Yi Zhonghai was soaking his feet in the main room at this time.

Seeing Fan Jinyou come to the door, he quickly wiped his feet with a towel, pulled on his shoes, and enthusiastically welcomed Fan Jinyou into the house.

After Auntie poured the tea, Yi Zhonghai asked with a smile: "Jin You, it's so late, why are you here again?"

"Is it about cleaning the house? Don't worry, if they don't clean it well, I will go and clean it for you tomorrow."

Fan Jinyou was deeply moved by Yi Zhonghai's enthusiasm.

"Master Yi, you are a good person."

"That's because, as a master, I like to help the residents of the compound the most."

Yi Zhonghai raised his head proudly: "Especially, I think you are a good young man. I almost regard you as my nephew."

Fan Jinyou said straightforwardly: "Can you lend me 75 yuan?"

"what"

The excited and proud expression on Yi Zhonghai's face instantly froze, and he looked particularly funny.

Gudu cough cough cough

The tea choked into his lungs and Yi Zhonghai almost fainted.

Fortunately, the aunt was quick-sighted and helped him pat his back, and he finally recovered.

Yi Zhonghai took the towel and wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth, and then asked in surprise: "Mr. Fan, why did you borrow so much money?" When Fan Jin saw that there was a way out, he immediately became energetic and talked about cleaning up the house. Again.

"Master Yi, I have more than half of it. I only need to borrow another 75 yuan."

"Can you help me with this?"

The room fell silent for a moment.

You can even hear the old hen cooing in front of Xu Damao's house.

It was specially 'bought' by Xu Damao from the countryside to replenish Liu Lan's health.

The various expressions on Yi Zhonghai's face changed rapidly with the cooing of the hen.

Finally made up his mind: "Jin You, I will lend you this money."

At that time, he asked his aunt to take out 75 yuan from the house and handed it to Fan Jinyou.

"Master, you are truly a moral model in our courtyard." Fan Jinyou clutched the money and was so grateful that he almost burst into tears.

Yi Zhonghai had a kind look on his face: "Hai, you kid, we are one family, why do we have to speak two different languages?"

"Yeah"

Fan Jinyou got the money and saw that it was getting late.

After chatting with Yi Zhonghai for a few words, he turned around and left on the grounds that he had to work the next day.

The aunt watched Fan Jinyou's back disappear into the light.

He closed the door, walked to the table, and sat down slowly.

"Lao Yi, that's 75 yuan, why do you just lend it out?"

Yi Zhonghai sipped his tea and said proudly: "What do you know? Fan Jinyou is a cadre of the street office, so there is no way he can repay this money."

"Besides, the recipient is short-handed. If we borrow the money, he will have to listen to us in the future."

"It won't be long before he becomes as well-behaved as Jia Dongxu."

"When the time comes, we will be able to deal with Li Aiguo easily."

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's little abacus.

The eldest mother always feels that something is wrong, but she can't explain why.

She wanted to persuade him, but the money had already been loaned out.
Time is like a man's capital, getting faster and shorter.

A blink of an eye.

Four or five days passed.

early morning.

Li Aiguo was awakened by a clanking sound in his sleep.

Don't ask.

I knew that construction was going on at Fan Jinyou's house next door.

Fan Jinyou has some abilities in that kid.

I don't know where I raised more than 100 yuan and gave it to the fifth construction team of the locomotive depot.

On the same day, Captain Liu of the construction team gathered two teams, the third and fifth construction teams, and rushed to the courtyard with Guy Shi.

Many people are powerful.

Besides, with Li Aiguo's house as a reference, the construction of the house is progressing very quickly.

Calculating the time, I can probably finish it today.

Today is a day off from work.

Li Aiguo originally planned to take a long sleep.

After being woken up, I felt completely sleepless.

have to.

Still get up early.

In recent days, the locomotive maintenance department has called on the entire department to learn safety rules and regulations.

Li Aiguo and Cao Wenzhi drove back every day and had to study in the locomotive depot education room for two hours.

By the time I got off work, it was already seven or eight o'clock, and there was no time to go and play with Chen Xueru.

Today is my day off, so I naturally want to take a look at my partner.

Think about these things.

Li Aiguo carried the water basin, put a towel on his shoulders, and walked towards the middle courtyard.

Although there is a faucet at home.

But when the weather is nice, he is still willing to wash his face in the middle courtyard.

Not for anything else, just for the fragrance of human beings.

Just went out.

I saw the ladies in the courtyard gathered around the door next door to watch the fun.

The biggest news in the compound these two days is that Fan Jin has tidied up the house.

Fan Jinyou cleans up the house, no matter the specifications, he must match Li Aiguo's.

Everyone said that Fan Jinyou wanted to compare with Li Aiguo.

So much so that He Yuyu was very unconvinced and called Fan Jinyou a white-eyed wolf.

Ask Li Aiguo not to talk to Fan Jinyou anymore.

Li Aiguo couldn't laugh or cry at that time.

He just lives his own life.

Other people's affairs have nothing to do with him.

Captain Liu of the construction team is directing the workers to work next door.

Seeing Li Aiguo approaching, Captain Liu turned around and handed out a cigarette.

"Patriot, are you resting today?"

"Yes."

Li Aiguo took out a lighter, lit it for him, and then lit it himself.

Smoking a cigarette, he asked casually: "Is the progress going well?"

"It will be completed this afternoon!" Captain Liu was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

He got a good deal on this business.

You can earn dozens of dollars, and each worker can get ten dollars.

Do you dare to think about earning ten yuan in five days?
It's really thanks to Li Aiguo's help.

The two were chatting casually when Yi Zhonghai walked over from the side with his hands behind his back.

He stopped, looked at Captain Liu with majestic eyes, and ordered angrily: "Old Liu, this is Cadre Fan's home, you must have some snacks, don't be careless."

"Looking at what you said, our Fifth Construction Team does our best wherever we work." Captain Liu said with some annoyance.

It’s not that he’s not generous.

Yi Zhonghai always hangs out here these days.

He doesn't know how to pretend to understand, and often sneaks into the house and instructs the workers to do this and that.

He also disliked the workers for not doing their jobs well.

Just like the owner of the house.

Captain Liu has long been fed up with him.
