Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Outside of Sha Zhu's memories, the courtyard house was indeed quite chaotic.

On the surface, everyone respects Yi Zhonghai, but behind his back, they are all wary of him.

Even his two staunch allies betrayed him.

In other words, Sha Zhu was truly fooled and became stupid.

Otherwise, his shabby retirement plan would have gone bankrupt long ago.

He Yuzhu extracted a lot of information from Xu Damao and gained a deeper understanding of Qinman Courtyard.

"Uncle Xu, don't tell these things to anyone else."

Xu Damao chuckled and said, "Don't worry. I'm not stupid."

Saying those things will only offend people and you'll gain nothing.

I'm only telling you this because you're someone I click with.

After today, I won't tell anyone, not even Sha Zhu.

He Yuzhu asked curiously, "What did he do after he woke up? Doesn't he really intend to take revenge?"

Xu Damao curled his lip: "Don't dream about it. This guy, in today's terms, is a deadbeat simp."

Hoping he'll seek revenge on Qin Huairu is like hoping for divine retribution.

drink wine."

He Yuzhu tentatively said, "How will you know it won't work if you don't try to persuade him?"

Xu Damao looked at He Yuzhu with suspicion: "Why do I feel like you really want Shazhu to go and take revenge on Qin Huairu?"
What does it matter to you what happens to Sha Zhu?

"It's nothing. I just really hate hypocrites and 'pure' people. Don't you hate them too?" He Yuzhu explained.

Xu Damao nodded in agreement: "You're just my type."

He Yuzhu chatted with Xu Damao for a while before preparing to leave.

Now that things are done here, it's time to make money.

He Yuzhu arrived at HSBC Bank with his bag on his back, wanting to open a bank account.

After opening the bank account, He Yuzhu deposited 30,000 US dollars.

When asked how he obtained these US dollars, He Yuzhu cited the money he earned working as a tour guide during the Olympics as the reason.

Although the bank staff had doubts, they couldn't find a reason to refuse.

In this way, the card now has nearly 200,000 yuan in funds.

After leaving the bank, He Yuzhu called his college classmate, Duan Weihong, whose father worked at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

"Old He, what made you suddenly decide to call me?"

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's nothing, we just thought we hadn't been in touch for a long time, so we wanted to get together."

"Okay," Duan Weihong agreed immediately. "Where?"

"Over here in Wangfujing," He Yuzhu said, giving the address of a restaurant.

Duan Weihong asked in surprise, "You've struck it rich? You're so generous. Do you know how expensive the food is there?"

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "I haven't made a fortune yet, but it'll be soon. Are you coming or not?"

"Come on, or you're a coward."

The call ended abruptly.

He Yuzhu strolled leisurely to Wangfujing.

When passing by a certain place, He Yuzhu lingered there for a while.

This was originally the place where he built his house, but now it has been turned into a shopping mall.

When He Yuzhu arrived at Wangfujing, he went to a mobile phone store first to buy a new phone.

Looking at those old mobile phones, He Yuzhu felt quite uncomfortable and finally bought a Nokia.

I had just changed my SIM card when Duan Weihong called.

"I tried calling you earlier, but I couldn't get through. You're not going to back out now, are you?"

He Yuzhu laughed and scolded, "Get lost, do you think I'm that stingy? I just bought a new phone."

"You've arrived?"

Duan Weihong laughed and said, "Two more subway stops, we'll be there soon."

He Yuzhu said, "Then I'll go over first and wait for you at the restaurant."

The two met soon after.

Duan Weihong looked at the completely transformed He Yuzhu with a look of surprise on his face: "Tell me honestly, did you really make a fortune?"
Don't forget our vow: if we become rich and powerful, we will not forget each other.

He Yuzhu said, "When it comes to making money, who can compare to you?"

The people in our dorm all work for small businesses.

Unlike you, who went straight to a state-owned enterprise after graduation. You should be helping us out more.

Duan Weihong complained, "Do you really think I'm living a good life?"

My dad was a deputy section chief.

In Beijing, you could kill a whole bunch of people by throwing a brick.

He begged and pleaded with everyone he knew to find me a way to get a job at my workplace.

But that's how it is.

"At work, I have to act like a pushover to everyone; it's killing me."

When the waiter came over, He Yuzhu stopped talking about the topic and instead brought up Sha Zhu.

He told Duan Weihong about his experience of meeting Sha Zhu.

Duan Weihong said in surprise, "Really?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "Of course it's true. Would I lie to you?"

Duan Weihong shook his head speechlessly: "I really can't believe it. You don't know, I've heard my dad talk about it."

That guy was a nepotism hire; he only stayed because of the connections of a senior leader in the Ministry of Industry.

Out of respect for the old leader, everyone spared him from punishment despite his numerous mistakes.

I never imagined he was this kind of person.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu instinctively felt that Bang Geng's mistakes were related to Jin Jichuan and his gang.

He asked casually, "If your dad says it's wrong, it's no small matter."

"The fact that they could suppress something like this means that old leader must have a lot of influence."

Duan Weihong said, "My dad didn't explain it in detail either, so I don't know much about it."

Don't you know Sha Zhu?

Why don't you just ask him directly?

You're practically Sha Zhu's savior; he's a big boss, he might even help you find a good job."

He Yuzhu shook his head: "What kind of big boss is he? Have you ever seen a big boss who got beaten up and dumped under a bridge?"

Duan Weihong chuckled, his eyes filled with curiosity: "How dare Bang Geng treat Sha Zhu like that?"

Isn't he afraid that Sha Zhu will turn against him?

He Yuzhu said, "He's not afraid at all. I heard from Sha Zhu's neighbor that Sha Zhu's house and restaurant are all under Qin Huairu's name."

It's under the name of the mother of the stick-shaped pheasant.

Sha Zhu is now just a penniless old man.

Duan Weihong's curiosity was piqued, and he asked a lot of questions about Sha Zhu.

He Yuzhu told him everything he could, but left behind many clues.

If Duan Weihong wants to know all the information, he should go to his father to ask about Bang Geng's situation.

Only after confirming the situation can He Yuzhu proceed with his next plan.

After the meal, He Yuzhu took out his bank card to pay the bill. After paying, Duan Weihong said, "You treated me to a meal, so I'll treat you to something more."

Let's go to a bar and have some fun.

He Yuzhu figured he had nothing to do back home, so he went with Duan Weihong.

The two hailed a taxi and headed to the bar.

To be honest, this was the first time He Yuzhu had ever been to a bar in either of his two lifetimes.

I could never have come here in this lifetime because I didn't have the money.

When Sha Zhu lived his whole life, by the time there were bars, he was already too old to come anymore.

Xu Damao, on the other hand, is a regular at the bar and spends his free time there.

Once inside the bar and the novelty wore off, He Yuzhu lost interest.

Duan Weihong, on the other hand, was quite interested and enjoyed himself to the fullest at the bar.

The two partied late into the night, and under He Yuzhu's urging, Duan Weihong eventually drank too much. He Yuzhu paid the bill and took him home.

After knocking, Duan Weihong's father opened the door.

"Uncle Duan, I've brought Weihong back."

"You must be Weihong's classmate. Thank you very much." Mr. Duan was very kind.

He Yuzhu spoke briefly with him, introduced himself, and then left.

Although the conversation was brief, it was enough for He Yuzhu to make a judgment about Duan's father. (End of Chapter)
