Siheyuan: Start a career change, lucky sign-in system

Chapter 182 4 Courtyard Miscellaneous Affairs

"What do you think, Xiaohu?" Yi Zhonghai asked helplessly. Fortunately, Wang Xiaohu did not fight for the position of the boss in the courtyard, otherwise he could have given way to the young man.

"I don't want to watch it. It's none of my business." Wang Xiaohu was speechless. He was just a spectator. Why did he have to be singled out every time?

No one expected that Wang Xiaohu would refuse so cleanly. This was an opportunity to enter the decision-making level of Siheyuan, but he just gave it up.

But on second thought, I felt it was very reasonable. He was already the deputy chief of the security department, and a small old man living in a courtyard house would really look down on him.

"Xiao Hu, don't hide it. Everyone knows that you have good ideas and can solve cases like a god. This kind of small matter can be solved in minutes..."

Seeing Yi Zhonghai endlessly praising him, Wang Xiaohu quickly stopped him: "Uncle, please don't say that. If you keep talking, I will become a god in heaven. How about I propose a plan?"

I feel like if I let this old guy continue talking, I'll really be embarrassed.

"Everyone welcomes Chief Wang to speak." Yi Zhonghai stood up and applauded out of respect, and everyone began to applaud.

This situation caught Wang Xiaohu off guard. He now understood why people with high positions were only willing to live in tube-shaped buildings or have a small courtyard of their own.

Because it will be really annoying, with all kinds of flatterers constantly harassing you.

Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance. The small courtyard next door had been completed and he could move in after the smell dissipated in two days. In the future, he would try not to attend the large gatherings in the courtyard if possible.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaohu stood up and waved his hand. Everyone stopped applauding and waited for him to speak.

"Well...Xu Damao, Second Uncle, you guys must make Third Uncle pay you, right?"

The two nodded in unison without hesitation. Wang Xiaohu turned to Yan Bugui and asked, "Uncle, do you think this is a normal transaction? They want to save effort so they have to take responsibility. They shouldn't pay for it, right?"

"That's right, how can you blame me for this? Besides, making furniture takes time, so why didn't you start doing it earlier? It's unreasonable to find fault with it after it's done." Yan Bugui said angrily.

"I have witnesses..."

"The witness you mentioned, Xu Damao, is Master Lu. What did he say?" Wang Xiaohu felt that this matter was no different and there was nothing to argue about. He didn't know what they were arguing about.

"Master Lu only charged 200 yuan, but we gave him 30 yuan. As for the follow-up labor fees mentioned by the third uncle, there is no such thing at all!" Xu Damao didn't care about so much. Anyway, his relationship with Yan Bugui was only good on the surface. The money he got was the most important thing.

"Two hundred yuan was used to make two sets of furniture and a double bed. On average, the set yours, Xu Damao, has 120 legs, which is a little more. Calculated proportionally, the actual value is 75 yuan. The third uncle's has 15 legs, so it is yuan. The second uncle's bed is worth yuan. Does anyone have any objection to this distribution?" Wang Xiaohu divided the prices according to the market price and then the proportion of the total price.

The three of them had no objection, and this was the most reasonable approach.

"Since there is no objection, that is to say, Xu Damao is short of 80 yuan, and the second uncle is short of 15 yuan. If you want to compensate... or return the money, does the third uncle have any objection to this amount? Of course, you can also refuse. I will handle this matter impartially. Now I would like to ask the first uncle to make the final decision."

Wang Xiaohu finally put the blame back on Yi Zhonghai. Now the accounts have been settled.

"Now things are very clear. Do you three have anything to say?" Yi Zhonghai nodded at Wang Xiaohu. He felt that this way of handling things was very fair and just. For a moment, he even felt that if Wang Xiaohu were to be the boss, he would do a better job than him.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Damao stood up and said, "I don't want any of the things. I think they are so bad. Give them all to Uncle San. I just want my two hundred yuan."

"Mine looks okay, and I can use it, but I think I should be refunded 20 yuan." Liu Haizhong is not that good to his two sons. Anyway, as long as the bed is good for sleeping, it won't kill them if they fall.

Yan Bugui was immediately dissatisfied when he heard this: "I meant well but ended up doing something bad, right? You guys decided to do this, did I force you? You want money? No way, I don't have a dime!"

"Uncle, you are acting like a rogue now. Yes, I didn't force you, but we gave you money, and the things you gave us are not worth so much money. Even if you want to compensate us, you should return the extra money given to you, right?" Seeing that Yan Bugui really started to act like a rogue, Xu Damao could only compromise.

"Okay, be quiet. Xu Damao, be careful with your words. After all, Third Uncle is your elder." Yi Zhonghai continued to defend him, and before Yan Bugui could be happy, he continued:

"Even if you take a step back, you are all responsible. Things have developed to this point because of laziness. If you were all like Xiaohu and went to find a carpenter yourself, or bought the furniture directly, there wouldn't be so many problems."

"I think this is the actual value of these furniture. This is not called compensation, this is a refund, a refund of the extra money. The things are here for everyone to see. Uncle, you overcharged me."

"Besides, you won't lose out. If you reinforce these furniture, I think Yan Jiecheng can still use them for his wedding. It's not a big deal."

Yi Zhonghai criticized both sides with a set of reasons and evidence, leaving the three people speechless.

Yan Bugui did some calculations and realized that he had indeed saved money. He did not spend a penny on these furniture and even earned 30 yuan. Now he has to pay back 95 yuan, which means he only spent 65 yuan for a set of thirty-six legs. It was a good deal!

"I have no objection, but our yard was robbed recently, and everyone knows that my family is short of money. I'll let Yan Jiecheng give you 5 yuan a month. That's enough for a year and a half," Yan Bugui had already made his plans and didn't intend to spend a penny.

Yan Jiecheng was immediately displeased when he heard this: "Dad, how can I have money? I have to give you money every month. I can't save money if I go out to eat and drink. If you keep this way, I won't give you money every month in the future."

"Boss, our family is in financial difficulty now. As the eldest brother, you have to be sensible and capable of doing things. I will compensate you when our family is better off. Do you still want to get married? I tell you that the betrothal gift has not been given yet." Yan Bugui said with a painful look on his face.

Yan Jiecheng opened his mouth but could not speak.

"Since you have nothing to say, let's adjourn the meeting!" Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with the performance of these three people. Let's see how they can work together to deal with him in the future. He always thought that these three traitors wanted to get to the top, but now they have finally been defeated one by one.

"Wait, I have something to explain." Xu Damao raised his hand and called everyone. He had just seen Qin Huairu standing there in a daze. Seeing that Sha Zhu was not there, he suddenly had an idea and had a good idea to get rid of the threat from Sha Zhu.
