Siheyuan, Rainwater is the master, Shazhu wins

The next morning, just as the sky in the east began to turn pale, the people in the entire yard who had lost money began to take action, anxiously searching for people from the Liu and Yan families.

Unfortunately, however, Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangfu had already been detained.

In desperation, everyone had to turn their attention to Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong.

Before long, this group of people who were eager to seek justice and discuss compensation gathered in front of Yan's house.

At this time, the Yan family's house was already overcrowded. The small courtyard was almost packed with people, and the originally spacious space instantly became crowded.

People in the yard gathered in groups of three or five, whispering and talking, and the noisy sounds were heard one after another.

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong stood in the middle of the crowd with bewildered looks on their faces. It was not until this moment that they realized that their son had actually brought so many people into the business!

"Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong, you two must give us a satisfactory explanation!

Think carefully before you speak!

You know, we are lending our hard-earned money to your son to do business!"

Several strong young men in the crowd shouted at the top of their lungs.

Their faces were filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

"That's right! How could you harm us like this?

If you don't give us an explanation, we will never let you go today!"

Some other people followed suit, the emotions became more and more excited, and the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense.

Seeing that everyone was filled with righteous indignation, it seemed that they were ready to beat someone up if they disagreed with someone.

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong looked at the chaotic scene in front of them and couldn't help feeling panic.

After all, they are no longer the young and middle-aged people who were full of vigor and awe-inspiring in the past.

Time is merciless, and they are just two old men.

How can we not feel fear in the face of such overwhelming public indignation?

"Well, don't get excited yet!

Please hand us the slips you wrote when you borrowed money. After we have carefully counted the amount, we will make up the difference.”

Liu Haizhong tried to calm everyone down while speaking at a slightly faster pace.

Yan Bugui, who was standing aside, also nodded repeatedly, indicating his agreement with Liu Haizhong's words.

After hearing this, the noisy crowd quieted down a little, but soon they started talking again:

"Oh, that's my hard-earned money!"

"That's right, when can I pay it back?"

"I shouldn't have lent it to them..."

Despite the constant complaints, everyone still started to dig out the IOUs in their hands and handed them to Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui one after another.

A whole morning passed, and the two were busy. Finally, they sorted out all the IOUs and checked them one by one to calculate the total amount of debt.

However, when the final figures were presented, everyone was stunned - the Yan family actually had to repay as much as 4,500 yuan, and the Liu family had to pay as much as 6,000 yuan!

This astronomical figure was like a bolt from the blue, hitting them on the head in an instant, making them feel like the sky was about to fall.

At this moment, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui looked at each other, their hearts filled with regret and anxiety.

They never imagined that the seemingly insignificant loans would accumulate to such a large amount, and now their pension money is suddenly reduced by more than half.

"Hey, Lao Liu!

Let's quickly find a way to trick everyone into selling their houses, otherwise how are we going to pay them back?"

Yan Bugui was so anxious that he stamped his feet and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Liu Haizhong nodded and responded solemnly.

"Okay, I'll go to the backyard and discuss the house with everyone."

After saying that, he hurried towards the backyard.

At the same time, Yan Bugui also took a deep breath and prepared to mention the matter of selling the house to pay off the debt to the people in the front yard.

On the fifth night, He Yuzhu, dragging his slightly tired body, had just stepped into the courtyard when he was stopped by Yan Bugui who had been waiting there.

Yan Bugui came up to He Yuzhu with a big smile on his face, lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Zhuzi, I have great news to tell you!

Come, let’s go inside and talk.”

Seeing this, He Yuzhu was a little confused, but still followed Yan Bugui into his house.

After He Yuzhu sat firmly in the chair, Yan Bugui carefully took out a worn but neatly organized notebook from the drawer, then sat opposite He Yuzhu, cleared his throat, and prepared to tell him what had happened.

"Zhu Zi, to be honest, I have spent a lot of time and effort these past two days.

I went to each of the families living in the front yard one by one and told them what we had discussed before.

Hey, guess what?

They basically all agreed!

But..."

Having said this, Yan Bugui paused for a moment, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, and then continued.

"But they put forward a condition, which is that the money must be given to them immediately after the contract is signed."

When He Yuzhu heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and was secretly surprised.

He had never expected that things would progress so quickly and that he would be able to convince everyone in the front yard in just two days.

For a moment, he was full of admiration for Yan Bugui.

"I say, Old Yan, you are really good!

It took such a short time to convince all these people.

Tell me quickly, how did you fool them?

Let me learn it too.”

He Yuzhu couldn't suppress his curiosity and couldn't wait to know how Yan Bugui did it.

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Yan Bugui suddenly looked a little embarrassed.

He scratched his head and answered hesitantly, "Hey, Zhuzi, look at what you said, what do you mean by deceiving?

I am also trying to persuade people with reason and appeal to their emotions.

I told them that if everyone works together on this, there will be many benefits in the future.

And I promise that I will never let anyone suffer any loss...

Anyway, it's something like that."

After saying this, Yan Bugui chuckled, and seemed a little embarrassed to tell you all his words.

"It's like this, my family has encountered a big change recently!

This matter caused quite a stir. Not only that, our family owed the people in the yard a full 4,500 yuan!

There is really no other way. I have told the creditors that I am planning to sell the house to you."

At this point, Yan Bugui paused and continued, "I also deliberately mentioned it in a subtle way, saying that you are very rich and can pay the house price directly in cash.

And guess what?

When they heard this, they immediately agreed and said that they would sell the house to you as long as you could see cash. "

After a brief pause, he continued to explain: "In fact, they had no choice.

Their family lived in a tight situation. The children were of marriageable age, but they did not have enough money to arrange their weddings.

So, I have no choice but to sell the place I live in now and move to a cheaper and more suitable place. "

He Yuzhu, who had been listening quietly nearby, nodded slightly after hearing these words, indicating that he understood the reason.

He Yuzhu said at this time.

"But when we signed the contract, we could only pay half of the price first, and the remaining half would be paid in one lump sum after the transfer of ownership of the house was completed."
