Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Zhong Yuemin and Feng Sanyuan had just gathered their men and rushed over.

But I saw that the group of people opposite had turned around and were about to leave.

Zhong Yuemin stared at the other person carefully, but didn't recognize anyone familiar, so he didn't take it seriously.

When the group of people on the opposite side left, they looked back and saw that more than 20 people had come to Ning Yuan's side. At this time, they completely gave up the idea of revenge.

After Ning Yuan saw that the group of people on the opposite side had completely walked away, he called his brothers to go on the ice and play ice hockey together.

Zhong Yuemin has excellent skills on the ice. He has speed, skills and strength.

Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin were lucky enough to team up and beat the opponents to a pulp in the entire afternoon.

Before they knew it, it was already night. Ning Yuan said hello to a few acquaintances and then took Zhong Yuemin and his group out of the ice rink.

They had agreed at noon to go to the Xinqiao Hotel in the evening. Ning Yuan had just received a large sum of money, so he naturally would not default on it. After the group packed up their things, they set off on bicycles.

Since little Ning Wei was also following, Ning Yuan had to carry the kid on his back, so he didn't drive any faster along the way.

The Xinqiao Hotel was built in 1951 and was named after "Xin" in "Xinhua" and "Qiao" in "Huaqiao", implying the birth of Xinhua and the return of new overseas Chinese."

Xinqiao Hotel is located on Chongwenmen West Street. It is the first Sino-foreign joint venture hotel and one of the first three hotels in Beijing that can accommodate foreign guests.

The hotel was officially opened on August 1954, 8, and was built with funds raised by state-owned funds and overseas Chinese.

It has a unique architectural style that blends traditional Chinese elements with international modernism, and its interior is beautifully decorated with a rich collection of art.

The people who come and go in this hotel are truly wealthy businessmen and high-ranking politicians.

After riding for more than an hour, the group finally arrived at the Xinqiao Hotel.

This time no one complained. After all, they had played for an entire afternoon and ridden bicycles for an hour, so they were already tired and hungry.

Xinqiao Hotel still focuses on Chinese food, and also offers Western food, but it is not the main dish.

In terms of Chinese cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, and Cantonese cuisine are all Xinqiao's signature dishes.

A large part of the parents of young people like Ning Yuan are from Sichuan and Hunan, so Sichuan and Hunan cuisine was very popular in the past few years.

But Ningyuan and his family have lived in Beijing for more than ten years, and their tastes have long been assimilated.

Among these types of cuisine, Shandong cuisine is the most appetizing.

Needless to say, these are some of the main dishes in Shandong cuisine, you must order them.

The first dish is sweet and sour carp, which is amber in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is made by a real Shandong chef. The taste is sour and sweet. Almost no one will dislike this dish.

Then there is the scallion-fried sea cucumber. Shandong’s specialties are scallions and coastal sea cucumbers.

Scallions have a strong flavor, and sea cucumbers are thick and nutritious. After stir-frying them, they are fresh, soft, and smooth in the mouth.

Dishes such as chicken slices in lotus sauce, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, stir-fried kidney, Texas braised chicken, and mullet egg soup were served one after another.

They were sitting at a large round Chinese table, with more than 20 people squeezed into two tables.

In addition to a dozen classic Shandong dishes, Ning Yuan was worried that these big-bellied men would not eat enough, so he ordered some classic Cantonese dishes, such as steamed spare ribs with black bean sauce, braised duck with young ginger, and clay pot rice.

In the end, each table ordered another ten pounds of dumplings, which allowed everyone to enjoy the meal to their heart's content.

After finishing this meal today, Ning Yuan clearly felt that the trust these brothers had in him had increased again.

Ning Yuan had become famous in the veterans' circle after a big fight two days ago, so many young people rushed over yesterday when they heard that Ning Yuan was inviting people to do something.

Today's meal made these young people who had just joined their team feel that Ning Yuan was a kind person, and they were now more willing to follow Ning Yuan.

Feelings are cultivated over time. If Ning Yuan wants to consolidate his position, he naturally needs the help of his brothers.

After dinner, Ning Yuan asked his brothers who had nothing to do tomorrow to come to their compound.

Ning Yuan, Zhong Yuemin and Fan Xinhua all lived in the same compound. Zhong Yuemin's father held a high position, so the residence they were allocated was a large house with four bedrooms and two living rooms.

Not only Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong like to hang out at Zhong Yuemin's house, but Ning Yuan and Fan Xinhua also like to go to Zhong Yuemin's house whenever they have nothing to do.

It was spacious and bright, and there were no other relatives at home, so it naturally became a gathering place for these naughty kids.

Although Ning Yuan's house is not small, there is little Ning Wei at home, so it is definitely not as comfortable as Zhong Yuemin's house.

But now there are more than ten new brothers who have come over, and these families in their yard can accommodate them, so they can have fun.

Everyone responded in agreement, and nothing else happened after that, so everyone went home.

Ning Yuan planned to go to Zhushikou Street with Zhong Yuemin first and give part of the money from selling the jade to Chen Liangzi.

So after he handed Xiao Ningwei over to Fan Xinhua, he and Zhong Yuemin rode their bicycles to Zhushikou Street.

.........

Zhushikou Street.

Chen Liangzi was sitting alone at home, with a painting on the table.

These things were picked up from the fourth courtyard of Maoer Hutong by him and his two men two months ago.

It is said that the previous owner of this courtyard was a prince of the Qing Dynasty, and now the courtyard has been passed down to his grandson.

This young man was also a playboy who lived a life of idleness and waiting for death. Four families moved into this compound at once, but he was sensible enough not to resist.

But he refused to give up the four rooms in the main house. We tried to persuade him countless times, both softly and hard, but he just wouldn't give in. When someone was assigned to move in, he would roll around at the door and even chase them with a knife.

There was really no other way, so I just gave him the four rooms in the main house.

He didn't have much of a job, and lived on the little antiques his father left him, which he exchanged on the black market for a little money.

That day, Chen Liangzi and his friends happened to meet him at the pigeon market outside Chongwenmen. After taking a string of bracelets from him, Chen Liangzi realized that this man was no ordinary person.

So he told his young men to stop and followed the young man all the way back to Maoer Hutong.

Late at night, Chen Liangzi and his two men sneaked in and went straight to the main room.

There were many secret rooms and mezzanines that even this young man might not have found, but Chen Liangzi and his team had found them all.

So they picked up a lot of rare treasures smoothly.
