Siheyuan Fortune Telling: Starting from a Buyer to Become an All-rounder

"Thank you very much, Chief. However, Chief, I still have to make it clear to you that I have prepared all these things in advance, and I cannot guarantee that I can get them at any time in the future."

Xu Dongsheng looked at Zhou Zhenghua's cheerful expression and knew what he was happy about. At the same time, he also gave Zhou Zhenghua a warning so that he would not be given a big task at that time.

"You can rest assured about this. After you become a regular employee, the tasks you will be assigned will not be as difficult as yours. And by then, you will probably take the initiative to ask for an increased difficulty level."

Zhou Zhenghua thought Xu Dongsheng was worried that the tasks would become more difficult after he became a regular employee, so he immediately told Xu Dongsheng that the difficulty of the tasks would not increase after he became a regular employee, but would be reduced a lot. Xu Dongsheng could only nod. He still underestimated his own abilities, which led to such an arrogant promotion.

But let him be a regular employee. Anyway, the origins of these things of his can be traced. Even if there are extra things, there are not many. We can only say that they are rules or something like that.

However, if someone really investigates, his strong physique will be exposed.

"Okay, then the section chief has to take better care of me."

Since things had come to this, Xu Dongsheng didn't have much to say. He then smiled and spoke to Section Chief Zhou.

"Don't worry, you are my baby, how could I not take care of you? Okay, go back and have a good rest today. Remember to dress nicely tomorrow morning, when Director Li will come to give you a permanent job and show you off."

Zhou Zhenghua nodded, smiled and told Xu Dongsheng to go back and rest first. Seeing this, Xu Dongsheng did not stay any longer, picked up his sack, and then went out from the shopping mall.

After leaving the purchasing department, everyone in the steel rolling mill had already dispersed and all those who were off work had left. Xu Dongsheng left the steel rolling mill and hurried to the place where the pigs were hidden outside. He untied the ropes of the hidden pigs, and then threw them into the hemispherical space, allowing the pigs and sheep to continue sleeping together in the hemispherical space.

Then Xu Dongsheng rode his bicycle leisurely back to Sijiucheng. When Xu Dongsheng returned to the courtyard, it was already completely dark, past eight o'clock in the evening.

"Dongsheng, you're back?"

Xu Dongsheng had just arrived at the entrance of the courtyard when a voice came from behind him. Xu Dongsheng turned around and saw that it was Xu Damao, who was pushing a bicycle and walking towards him. Xu Dongsheng glanced at Xu Damao's back and saw a man riding a bicycle and leaving in style.

"Zhao Gang."

Xu Dongsheng looked at the back figure, which was very familiar. Although he couldn't see the person clearly at night, it was dark. But Xu Dongsheng's eyesight was not to be underestimated. Even if he couldn't see at night, he could still see the back figure clearly in the dim light. Xu Dongsheng looked at the back figure and immediately knew who this person was.

"Ah, I'm back. Brother Damao, where are you from?"

Xu Dongsheng looked at Xu Damao and guessed in his heart that it was probably because he had rejected Xu Damao. Although Xu Dongsheng said he would consider it, most people knew that such consideration would not be agreed to unless it was absolutely necessary, so Xu Damao was also looking for another way.

"Hey, two of my friends were planning to treat me to a drink, but that delayed me. Dongsheng, it seems like you've only been out for a few days, why are you back so soon?"

When Xu Damao saw that Xu Dongsheng came back immediately after just a few days away, he thought that Xu Dongsheng had run into some trouble outside and failed to purchase anything, so he came back early.

"I have no choice. I've been away for a few days and can't fit my bike. I have to come back now."

Xu Dongsheng gave a bitter smile upon hearing this, and then told Xu Damao that he came back because he was so powerful.

"You're quite impressive. Come on, we two brothers have met each other today. Come to my room and have a drink."

Xu Dongsheng was telling the truth, but with his wry smile, Xu Damao immediately thought that Xu Dongsheng had been humiliated and said that on purpose because he couldn't show his weakness in front of him.

"Brother Damao, let's do it another day. I just got back, so I'd better go to my house and report in first."

Xu Dongsheng didn't care whether Xu Damao had misunderstood or not, and said that he wanted to accompany his old father tonight.

"Okay, let's make an appointment another day. By the way, Dongsheng, I gave away the jar of good wine you brought to my room. You won't blame me, will you?"

Seeing that Xu Dongsheng refused, Xu Damao did not pursue the matter any further. He then jokingly told Xu Dongsheng that he had given the jar of good wine away.

"I brought it to your room as a gift. It's your stuff, you can do with it as you want. Anyway, my dad and I don't drink very often."

Xu Dongsheng didn't care about this at all. Even if Xu Damao didn't tell him, it didn't matter. When he left that day, he didn't take it away, which meant he didn't want it.

"Brother, you are really reliable. Hey, Dongsheng, whose bicycle is this? Why is the wheel so flat? Did you give my bicycle to someone else?"

Seeing that Xu Dongsheng really didn't care, Xu Damao believed Xu Dongsheng. Then Xu Damao leaned in the moonlight and suddenly saw Xu Dongsheng's bicycle. The bicycle seemed to be his, but why did the wheels of the bicycle seem to be deflated?

He immediately suspected that Xu Dongsheng was trading his bicycle to someone else just like he was trading his own bicycle.

"No, this is your bicycle. It's carrying too much stuff today, so it's a little deflated. I'll pump up some air tomorrow and it will be back to normal."

Seeing that Xu Damao had noticed the changes in the bicycle, Xu Dongsheng did not hide it and said that the wheel of the bicycle was a little flat.

"Brother Damao, my bicycle is really delicious at your place. Did you go to paint it today?"

Xu Dongsheng said to Xu Damao with a smile, then pointed at his bicycle, which had obviously been painted today.

"That's not right, Dongsheng. I just exchanged my bicycle with yours. Aren't you being too unkind to it?"

Xu Damao looked at the bicycle tire that was so flat that it was about to fall off, and immediately said to Xu Dongsheng with some heartache, asking if Xu Dongsheng was too careless about it.

"Brother Dongsheng, you are wrongly blaming me. When I was in the countryside, I carried all the things I purchased on my own. Most of the time, he just gave me a ride and didn't help me carry the things I purchased."

Xu Dongsheng told the truth again, but Xu Damao couldn't believe it. If this was true, how could his bicycle be in such a state? It was as if it had been robbed.

"But, aren't you exaggerating a bit? This big bar is a little deformed. How much did you buy in this purchase?"

Xu Damao stroked his bicycle carefully. Although this was the bicycle that Old Xu had replaced, it shouldn't be like this, right?

"Today he carried 700 kilograms for me."

Xu Dongsheng nodded, and then told the truth about what he was taking to Sijiu City today.

"How much, seven hundred kilograms? Dongsheng, you want me to carry several hundred kilograms of things on my 28-meter-long pole? I'm wondering, why is my pole deformed? I didn't expect you to use it like this? Oh my God, I, this."

When Xu Damao heard Xu Dongsheng say "seven hundred kilograms", he became incoherent and his voice became much higher.

"Brother Damao, you told me at the beginning that I could use it without worry. I still cherish it and used it when I collected it."

Looking at the incoherent Xu Damao, Xu Dongsheng could only say sorry inwardly. He did go too far by making this small bicycle bear such a heavy weight.

"Oh, forget it. It's not your fault, Dongsheng. How about we change it back? I've been planning to do some serious work recently, so I basically won't be using this new bike. And it just so happens that I just spray-painted it for you today. There's no damage to the rest of the bike, so it's in line with our original agreement."

Looking at the bicycle pushed by Xu Dongsheng, Xu Damao felt a little uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do. When they discussed the replacement, they did not mention asking Xu Dongsheng to replace the parts for him.

"Brother Damao, I'm really sorry. How about I take it to the car shop tomorrow to inflate it for you, and then bring it back to you?"

Xu Dongsheng felt a little embarrassed when he saw Xu Damao's anxious look. When he was using it, he didn't think that this was a bicycle and couldn't bear such a heavy weight. He also didn't consider that this was Xu Damao's bicycle. He naturally let the bicycle carry all the weight, which made the bicycle become like this.

"No need, Dongsheng, why are we still talking about this? It's not a big deal. I can just push it to get it pumped up when I go to work tomorrow. Okay, let's go. It's not a big deal to just stand there at the door."

Seeing that Xu Dongsheng didn't mean it, Xu Damao didn't pursue the matter any further and said that he would just go and refill the gas tank tomorrow.

"Brother Damao, I'm really sorry about the bicycle incident. So, Damao, this rabbit was given to me by an old hunter. You can take one back to try. Although this rabbit has little fat and is full of lean meat, it is well marinated and tastes delicious even when you chew it dry. You can take it with you as dry food when you go to the screening."

After entering the yard, Xu Dongsheng opened the sack on the bicycle, then took out a pickled rabbit from it and handed it to Xu Damao.

"Dongsheng, you are too polite. I can't accept it. I asked you for it, and you didn't ask me for anything. Okay, I'll take it, and we'll make an appointment another day. It's crazy."

When Xu Dongsheng took out the pickled rabbit, Xu Damao was instantly attracted by the smell. He was ready to refuse, but seeing Xu Dongsheng's sincerity, he held back and said he would treat Xu Dongsheng to a drink next time.
