Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 1225 Xu Damao Takes Action

"Shazhu and Liu Haizhong actually stole Mr. Huang's supplies?"

Xu Damao suddenly became excited.

Now he has two choices.

One is to report to Wang Weidong and ask Wang Weidong to notify the street office to arrest Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong.

Lock them up for two years.

The second option is to tell Boss Huang about this and ask him for some money, and then Boss Huang can beat up Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong.

Most people will choose one of the two options.

But Xu Damao is an adult, and of course an adult wants both.

Thinking of this, Xu Damao couldn't help but let out a sinister laugh.

He patted Yan Jiecheng on the shoulder proudly and praised him hypocritically: "Jiecheng, you did a great job!"

Yan Jiecheng looked flattering and hurriedly warned: "Xu Damao, you must not tell anyone that I was the one who informed on you, or I will be in big trouble."

Xu Damao waved his hands nonchalantly and assured him solemnly: "Don't worry, I know what's going on and I will never betray you."

After getting the guarantee, Yan Jiecheng went home humming a little tune excitedly.

When he went to Chaoyang Market, he specially bought two kilograms of eggs, preparing to reward himself.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, the third uncle saw the eggs in his hand and immediately started to wonder if he had done something bad. The third uncle approached him and asked in a sarcastic tone, "Jie Cheng, where did you get the money to buy eggs? Did you do something shameful again?"

Yan Jiecheng replied angrily: "This is my own business, please don't meddle in it!" After that, he left without looking back.

The third uncle was so angry that he was fuming, but there was nothing he could do.

On the other side, Xu Damao rushed to Boss Huang's house. At this time, Boss Huang had already discovered that the supplies were missing and was furious in the yard, stamping his feet and cursing the thief. His brothers checked around but had no clues. In desperation, they suggested Boss Huang report the case.

When Boss Huang heard this, he flew into a rage and started scolding the young man, "Why are you reporting a case? Are you out of your mind?

If I report the case and find out that the source of my supplies is unknown, won't I be in trouble? If you can't even handle this, what's the point of having you!"

The younger brother was scolded so badly that he lowered his head and dared not even breathe.

At this moment, Xu Damao walked into the yard with a flattering look on his face, and said with a smile: "Boss Huang, calm down, I have some clues about the thief, I wonder if you are interested in listening to it?"

Xu Damao was secretly delighted, but pretended to be embarrassed and said with a sad face: "Boss Huang, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that the people who stole the things are too powerful. If they knew that I leaked the information, I would be dead!"

When Boss Huang heard this, he knew that Xu Damao was asking him for money. He frowned and said unhappily, "Okay, I'll give you ten dollars as your hard work fee. Now you can finally say it, right?"

When Xu Damao heard this, he showed a look of disdain on his face and snorted, "Boss Huang, are you treating beggars like this? I heard that the batch of materials is worth more than a thousand yuan, and you only gave me ten yuan?"

When Boss Huang heard Xu Damao tell him the value of the materials, he was startled and realized that Xu Damao indeed knew the inside story.

He gritted his teeth, weighed the pros and cons, and finally said, "Okay, I'll give you a hundred dollars. This is my bottom line."

Xu Damao was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "Give me the money first, and I will tell you later."

Boss Huang's face darkened, and he stared at Xu Damao fiercely, warning him, "Xu Damao, you'd better not play any tricks. If you take the money and give me a false message, you'll be dead!"

After saying this, he winked at the little brother next to him.

The younger brother understood what he meant, and quickly pulled out the dagger and waved it in front of Xu Damao. A cold light flashed, and Xu Damao trembled with fear.

"You...you guys don't do anything rash, I will tell you the truth." Although Xu Damao pretended to be strong, he was still a little scared in his heart.

Boss Huang snorted coldly, took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and threw it at Xu Damao's feet, "Take the money and tell me! Who stole my things?"

Xu Damao swallowed his saliva, bent down to pick up the money, and after confirming that it was correct, he carefully put it in his pocket.

Then he whispered, "It was Shazhu and Liu Haizhong who did it. Last night, I saw them stealthily moving things out of your warehouse and taking them away on a flatbed truck.

When Boss Huang heard Sha Zhu's name, he got so angry that his face turned red and veins popped out on his forehead.

He never thought that he had given Sha Zhu a job out of kindness, but Sha Zhu would repay his kindness with hatred and collude with outsiders to steal his things. "I will make this traitor pay!"

Boss Huang cursed with gnashing teeth.

Xu Damao was secretly pleased to see that Boss Huang was very angry, but he still quickly warned him, "Boss Huang, please don't let it be known that I was the one who informed on you, otherwise I won't be able to live in this hospital anymore."

Boss Huang waved his hands impatiently and said, "I know, I know. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

After getting the guarantee from Boss Huang, Xu Damao was satisfied. He took the money and left excitedly.

As he walked, he was thinking in his mind that he would just wait for Boss Huang to settle the score with Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong. When they got beaten and embarrassed, he would go and tell Wang Weidong.

By then, Shazhu and Liu Haizhong will be completely finished.

As he thought about it, Xu Damao couldn't help but reveal a smug smile.

"You two idiots, you still want to fight me, you are just looking for death!"

Xu Damao felt that he was about to reach the peak of his life.

On the other side, Boss Huang quickly gathered seven or eight brothers, who were either his cousins ​​or close friends, and who usually made a living from the canteen. Boss Huang's face was gloomy, and he told the whole story of Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong stealing the house.

When everyone heard this, they were immediately in an uproar. "What? How could such a thing happen!" "These two guys are too much. How dare they steal our jobs!" The relatives shouted in indignation, saying that they would teach Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong a lesson.

Boss Huang looked at the indignant expressions of the crowd, secretly satisfied in his heart, and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, as long as we find Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong and get the money back, each person will get ten yuan!"

"Okay!" "No problem!" Everyone cheered. Ten dollars was not a small amount of money for them, and this made them even more motivated.

"Let's go to the courtyard now!"

Boss Huang waved his hand and led this group of aggressive people towards the courtyard in a mighty manner.

Along the way, everyone walked in a hurry, cursing Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong constantly.

Qin Jingru had just come back from get off work, carrying a basket of vegetables in her hand, and walked to the gate humming a little tune. Suddenly she saw a group of aggressive people, and she was really scared, and the basket in her hand almost fell to the ground.

Qin Jingru widened her eyes and looked at this group of uninvited guests, feeling uneasy.

She didn't have time to think about it, and quickly turned around and ran home, breathlessly telling Xu Damao what happened: "Da Mao, it's bad, a group of people came to the door, and they looked very fierce! I don't know what they are going to do."

Xu Damao, however, looked calm and said nonchalantly: "I already knew that these people are here to deal with Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong."

Qin Jingru was immediately anxious when she heard this, and couldn't help but scold: "Xu Damao, you are so confused! You are now the second uncle in the compound, the one in charge.

If these people just rush in and you just sit there and do nothing, if Wang Weidong finds out, he will definitely punish you!"

Xu Damao originally looked as if it had nothing to do with him, but after being scolded by Qin Jingru, he was stunned.

His heart skipped a beat and he realized that he had been negligent.

This is like shooting oneself in the foot.

"Oh, how could I have forgotten this!"

"Then...what should we do?" Qin Jingru was also panicked.

Xu Damao realized that he could not be a coward, so he gritted his teeth and walked out bravely.

At this time, the Third Uncle, Yan Jiecheng, and several residents of the compound had already seen Boss Huang and the group of people he brought.

Everyone had a look of fear on their faces. Boss Huang and his group all looked furious and aggressive, as if they would explode at any time.

Xu Damao went up to them, pretending that he didn't know Boss Huang at all. He raised his voice and asked loudly, "Who are you? What are you doing in our compound?"

Boss Huang was stunned for a moment, his face full of confusion and disbelief. It was Xu Damao who had taken the initiative to find him and told him about Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong stealing things. What was going on?

While Boss Huang was stunned, Xu Damao secretly winked at Boss Huang, and then said righteously:

"I am the second uncle in this compound. I will never allow anyone to destroy the peaceful atmosphere in the compound! If you have any problems,

Speak nicely and don’t cause trouble here.”

Xu Damao's words were well-reasoned and immediately won the approval of the residents of the compound.

Everyone seemed to have found their backbone, and they all shouted, "Yes, let's talk it over, don't make trouble here!"

Boss Huang then realized that Xu Damao was trying to distance himself from the matter in front of everyone.

Although he was a little annoyed, he also knew that now was not the time to get angry. So he suppressed his anger and said, "Second Uncle, we need to talk to Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong."

You must be kidding. Boss Huang didn't dare to tell anyone about the two people stealing things, otherwise the fact that he opened a private canteen would be exposed.

After Xu Damao figured this out, he immediately felt relieved. He turned around and told the third uncle and the others not to be afraid and that he would talk to Boss Huang.

The third uncle gave Xu Damao a thumbs up and said, "Da Mao, I always thought you were a coward, but today I found out that I misunderstood you."

Xu Damao: “…”

He felt that the third uncle was really good at praising people.

Xu Damao smiled proudly, then walked up to Boss Huang and expressed his desire to talk to him in private.

Boss Huang didn't know what Xu Damao was going to do, but with so many people surrounding him, he couldn't rush in, so he could only agree to Xu Damao.

The two came to a remote place, and Xu Damao's face changed instantly, and he cursed Boss Huang as a fool: "Are you out of your mind?

Bringing so many people to the Siheyuan to cause trouble, aren't you afraid that the matter will get out of hand and even the fact that you opened a canteen privately will be exposed?"

Boss Huang was stunned by the scolding and immediately got angry: "Xu Damao, stop pretending here! If you hadn't told me that Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong stole my things, would I have come here?

Now you're blaming me?"

Xu Damao quickly waved his hands and said in a low voice, "I know, I know, but you can't be so reckless.

We have to think carefully. If things get out of hand, it will be bad for both you and me."

Boss Huang frowned and said unhappily, "Then what do you say we should do? My things were stolen, and I can't ask them to settle the bill?"

Xu Damao quickly apologized with a flattering look on his face, and said, "Boss Huang, please calm down first.

Think about it carefully. Your main purpose now is not just to beat them up to vent your anger. The most important thing is to get back the money converted from the stolen materials.

If we make a big fuss here and alert the street office or anyone else, things will get complicated and it’s hard to say whether we can get the money back.”

When Boss Huang heard what Xu Damao said, he had an idea and thought about it carefully. He felt that it did make sense.

He was so angry that he only thought about teaching Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong a lesson and ignored this matter.

"That's what I said," Boss Huang said helplessly with his brows still furrowed, "but if I don't go in, how can I ask them for money? Am I supposed to just wait here?"

Xu Damao chuckled and said confidently: "Boss Huang, you are right, we just wait outside!

They can't just hide in the yard forever, can they?

As soon as they come out, we will catch them in the act. Wouldn't it be much easier to ask for money then? And since we are outside, we don't have to worry about making a big fuss and alerting other people."

Boss Huang's eyes lit up, and the haze on his face suddenly dissipated a little. He raised his hand and gently patted Xu Damao on the shoulder, praising him: "Oh, Xu Damao, I didn't expect you to be so smart!

OK, I'll do as you say."

After saying that, Boss Huang turned around and left the courtyard with his brothers.

Xu Damao looked at their departing backs with a smug smile on his face.

He straightened his clothes, turned around and returned to the compound, resuming his old-fashioned demeanor, and reminded the people in the compound: "Don't worry, everyone. I have already solved the problem. Go back to your own business."

As soon as these words were spoken, the residents of the compound looked at Xu Damao with different eyes.

Originally, everyone thought Xu Damao was a clever and petty person, but after what happened just now, they actually felt that he seemed to be somewhat responsible.

Seeing this, Xu Damao felt even more proud, but he also knew that this matter was not over yet.

His eyes rolled, as if he suddenly thought of something, and he said, "Listen to me, everyone. Let's stop here and don't spread it.

Our compound has always had a good reputation. If this matter caused a stir and affected the reputation of the compound, that would be bad.”
