Siheyuan: Domineering life

In the end, Yang Jun was unable to persuade his sisters and was forced to visit his parents.

After returning from the ancestral hall, he was feeling as hot as a dog. His clothes were all wet and sticky to his body, making him feel very uncomfortable.

First I went back to the backyard to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, and went to the air-conditioned room by the river.

The air-conditioned room is turned on for two hours a day. As soon as you enter, you can enjoy the cool summer at any time. The refrigerator is filled with various iced fruits and drinks, which can be enjoyed at any time. When Yang Jun arrived, Sun Zhaocai and Sha Zhu were eating iced watermelon in big mouthfuls. In just a short while, the trash can was full of watermelon peels.

"Uncle Yang, eat a piece of watermelon to cool down."

Sun Zhaocai casually handed the last piece of iced watermelon to Yang Jun.

Yang Jun did not refuse. He took it and took a bite. A cool and sweet taste went straight into his heart and lungs. He felt like he had been given a shot of cardiotonic and felt relaxed all over.

"Uncle Yang, Uncle An Guo just called and said he will come to see you later." Sun Zhaocai reported.

"Why did he come to see me?" Yang Jun asked while eating watermelon.

"He didn't say."

Yang Jun didn't take it seriously. He was bored anyway and wanted to find someone to chat with.

The weather was too hot, so he finished the watermelon in just a few bites, stretched out his hand, and said, "One more piece."

Sun Zhaocai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This is the last piece."

"But if you want to eat it, is there any iced one? Would you like to eat it?"

"Cut it."

"it is good."

Sun Zhaocai responded, then took out a big watermelon from the snakeskin bag behind the refrigerator and started cutting it.

Yang Jun sat there eating watermelon and enjoying this wonderful moment.

"coming."

Sun Zhaocai called out softly, then rolled his eyes and sat there eating peaches with Sha Zhu.

This guy doesn't have a very good impression of Yang Anguo, and every time he comes, he eats and takes away his few medicinal liquors. It would be strange if he had a good impression of Yang Anguo.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun looked back and saw Yang Anguo walking towards him with a lunch box.

"elder brother."

As soon as Yang Anguo entered the door, he started to open the lunch box.

"I made some snacks, let's have a drink together, brothers."

Before Yang Jun could say anything, he saw Sun Zhaocai pressing his palm like a palm-leaf fan on the food box.

"Attract wealth, what for?" Yang Anguo looked at him in confusion.

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhaocai said with a straight face, "Uncle Yang doesn't eat food brought from outside."

As a guard, he still has some vigilance. Except for the food brought by the people closest to Yang Jun, he is absolutely not allowed to touch the food brought by other people. Sometimes it is better to be safe than sorry.

"This……"

Yang Anguo looked at Yang Jun in embarrassment and said, "Brother, this..."

Hearing this, Yang Jun waved his hand and said, "You used to be a guard for me, so you know the rules."

"Brother, I understand, but... don't you still trust me?"

Sun Zhaocai snatched the food box and threw it aside, saying, "This is not a question of trust or not. Uncle Yang must not eat food from outside."

"Don't you guys usually go out to eat?"

"That's random. Even if we eat outside, Shazhu and I eat first. Uncle Yang eats after everything is OK."

"Okay, I can't convince you, so if you don't want to eat, then don't eat."

Yang Anguo felt that he was no longer trusted, felt a little annoyed, and sat there sighing.

Seeing this, Yang Jun told Sun Zhaocai, "Go to the kitchen and order some dishes. An Guo and I will have a drink."

"Yes, Uncle Yang."

Sun Zhaocai responded, turned around and went to the backyard, but before leaving he also took away the food box that Yang Anguo brought.

"Is something wrong?"

Looking at Yang Anguo who was still angry, Yang Jun asked.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to have a drink with you and report on my work."

After saying that, he moved the stool closer to Yang Jun and began to report on his work.

"Brother, this is it."

"The construction of the shelter in your province has already started in full swing. Can I start purchasing supplies now?"

“You can start now.”

Yang Jun: "But... we can only purchase equipment and some other things first. As for food and supplies, we'll talk about it in a few years."

"I know that. I just came to ask if you can first purchase some supplies that are easy to preserve, such as equipment, machines, tools, etc."

Yang Anguo said: "I have already contacted the manufacturer of this equipment and they can supply it at any time."

"Actually, there's no need to rush. However, we can purchase some as a reserve." Yang Jun thought for a moment before answering.

"Brother, why aren't you in a hurry anymore?" Yang Anguo asked puzzledly, "I saw you always urging Xiaowu, and I thought this matter was very urgent."

When Yang Jun heard this, he rolled his eyes at him.

"Having a sword in hand and not using it are two different things. The Doomsday Shelter may not be used, but it cannot be without it."

"understand?"

Yang Anguo nodded and said, "I understand, brother."

"That means there's no rush."

Yang Jun nodded and said, "Just keep it in mind."

After that, he paused for a moment and then asked, "How's the situation at the coal mine?"

Ever since Yang Anguo got into trouble last time, Yang Jun took back the ownership of the coal mines, but Yang Anguo was still managing those coal mines. After all, he had been managing those mines for so many years. For some reasons, Yang Jun continued to let him manage the mines.

"Everything is fine, but..."

At this point, Yang Anguo showed an embarrassment on his face. He hesitated for a moment and then continued, "However, Cheng Dao intends to carry out a comprehensive reform of all mines. I am worried that if the step is too big, it will easily lead to trouble."

Yang Jun listened and said calmly: "The coal mine reform was my idea. I asked Cheng Dao to do this."

"The domestic market has been integrated with the international market. The rough and simple management model of the past is no longer acceptable. It has long been out of step with the international situation. If it continues like this, the coal mine will close down sooner or later."

“Although the current reforms have brought about some changes and may cause considerable losses, I still think it is necessary to carry out reforms for future development.”

In fact, Yang Jun had no idea that his son Yang Chengdao was going to reform the coal mine, but as an elder, he had to take the blame for his son. His son had just taken over the family business, and this was the time when he needed the support of his family the most. No matter what he did, even if he was wrong, Yang Jun would support him.

If for no other reason than to establish his prestige.

Managing a company is like leading troops. Once an order is issued, no matter whether it is right or wrong, the subordinates must execute it unconditionally. His son has just started his career and is not mature in all aspects, so Yang Jun must stand up for his son, support him, and cultivate his prestige. Of course, reform is imperative. Now is the 1990s, which is the transition stage of international integration. If we don't reform at this time, it will be difficult to change in the future.

When Yang Anguo heard that Yang Chengdao's reforms were supported by Yang Jun, he was also stunned.

He originally wanted to come to Yang Jun to complain, but he didn't expect that Yang Jun would tacitly agree to let him do so.

At this moment, he felt that Yang Jun no longer trusted him so much. Compared with Yang Chengdao, he was the outsider.

Brothers are drifting further and further apart, even blood brothers are like this. The same is true for Yang Jun, Yang Mei and Yang Liu. After they each have their own small families, the focus of their lives has shifted. Of course, they can only put their families first in everything.

"So it was my brother's idea."

Yang Anguo smiled and said, "Since it's my brother's idea, of course I support it 100%."

Hearing this, Yang Jun stared at him with a pair of sharp eyes.

"An Guo, put away your little thoughts, it's best to cooperate with Cheng Dao's work and don't make things difficult for me."

"Brother, don't worry, I will never make things difficult for you. If Cheng Dao tells me to beat a dog, I will never chase a chicken. If he tells me to go east, I will never go west."

Yang Jun: "I hope you can keep your promise."

"Yes, don't worry, I will definitely do it."

Although Yang Anguo appeared calm on the surface, his heart was in turmoil.

At this moment, he understood that Yang Jun unconditionally supported his son. At this moment, he realized that the next generation successor of the Yang family had already been decided, and that was Yang Chengdao. Everything Yang Jun did was to pave the way for Yang Chengdao.

In the past, he always treated Yang Chengdao as a child, thinking that it was too early for him to inherit the Yang family, so he was not taken seriously. But this time Yang Chengdao wanted to reform the mine he managed. He was a little opposed at first. After all, he didn't want his management model of so many years to be completely denied. Today, he came here to complain to Yang Jun and see if he could persuade Yang Chengdao not to reform the enterprise for the time being. Unexpectedly, he was met with a cold shoulder.

At this time, Sun Zhaocai came back, followed by two nannies carrying trays.

After coming in, the nanny put the wine and food on the table and left.

"It's not poisonous."

Sun Zhaocai suddenly said something.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

"What do you mean non-toxic?" Yang Jun asked in astonishment.

Sun Zhaocai glanced at Yang Anguo, then turned to Yang Jun and said, "I just fed the wine and food that Uncle Anguo brought to the dog. It's not poisonous."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun was speechless and held his forehead with his hands.

He thought that this was a fool. How could such a thing be said in front of others? Didn't it make him seem too cold-hearted?
What you mean is, can't we talk about it after the person leaves?
However, Yang Jun knew that Sun Zhaocai was not that kind of young man, he said that on purpose.

On the one hand, he and Yang Anguo didn't get along well and he was deliberately taking revenge on him. On the other hand, he was clearly telling Yang Anguo that you are no longer the person Yang Jun trusts the most, and you should be more careful in what you do in the future.

"you……"

After hearing this, Yang Anguo's face turned red with anger.

Although he also knew that Yang Jun had strict procedures for eating and traveling, he did not expect Sun Zhaocai to say such things to his face. He felt as if his face was being stepped on and rubbed repeatedly on the ground.

"Can I harm my brother?" Yang Anguo said angrily.

"Who knows?" Sun Zhaocai rolled his eyes.

As Yang Jun's personal bodyguard, he must perform his duties conscientiously. This is part of his job and he must be responsible for Yang Jun's safety.

In fact, all his worries were unnecessary. As long as Yang Jun was not chopped into meat paste, he would not die. He once secretly conducted an experiment to test whether his dragon essence and phoenix marrow had the function of immortality or immunity to all poisons. So he injected a trace amount of poison, and later found that his body did not feel any discomfort. Later, he increased the dosage, and except for some discomfort at first, there was no abnormality afterwards.

Later, I used potassium chloride to do experiments, and there was no sign of poisoning in the body. From that time on, he knew that his dragon essence and phoenix marrow bloodline not only had the function of immortality, but also had the effect of making him immune to all poisons.

So, he is not afraid of anyone poisoning him.

Of course, not being afraid of poisoning is one thing, but taking preventive measures is another. It is reasonable for Sun Zhaocai to do this.

"Zhaocai, that's my brother. I can harm anyone but him." Yang Anguo said with his neck stiff.

"He's not my biological brother." Sun Zhaocai said in a buzzing voice.

"Lucky, shut up."

Yang Jun scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? How come An Guo is not my brother?"

"I'm sorry, Uncle Yang."

Sun Zhaocai was just dissatisfied with Yang Anguo, but he still listened to Yang Jun's words and admitted his mistake directly.

"Don't do this next time."

After saying that, Yang Jun said to Yang Anguo: "Anguo, don't be so arrogant as to act like a jerk."

Yang Anguo's face flushed, he lowered his head and said, "I know, brother."

Even though he said this, he actually felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

The feeling of being distrusted was particularly uncomfortable. He had a urge to die and felt that death was the only way to prove his loyalty at this time.

"Okay, have a couple of drinks with me."

Afterwards, Yang Jun opened the bottle of Wuliangye, poured a glass for Yang Anguo, and another glass for himself.

"Brother, I respect you."

In response to Yang Jun's toast, Yang Anguo quickly raised his glass.

The two clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

Putting down the cup, Yang Jun turned around and said to Sun Zhaocai who was standing there, "Go to the wine cellar and get two bottles of medicinal wine. Ask An Guo to take them back."

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhaocai opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Yang Jun before he could say anything.

"If you say no, I'll break your legs."

"Yes." Sun Zhaocai said in a buzzing voice, "I'll go prepare it for him right away."

After saying that, he pulled Shazhu, who was eating a peach, away.

He didn't want to stay with Yang Anguo and wanted to be as far away from him as possible.

After the two of them left, Yang Jun said in a deep voice: "An Guo, don't blame Zhao Cai for treating you like this. After all, you haven't been by my side for many years. He did this entirely out of concern for my safety."

"Besides, you also know that I am no longer alone. There are thousands of people following me, and they all depend on me for their livelihood, so they naturally don't want me to get hurt."

"I hope you understand this."

Yang Anguo blushed and said, "Brother, I don't mean to blame you."

"I also know that this is not your intention. It is because Zhaocai and I have a personal conflict that he did this."

"You mentioned that there are thousands and thousands of people who depend on you for their livelihood, and I am one of them. You are my brother, so I naturally hope for the best for you more than outsiders do. If you fall, our entire Yang family will be finished."

Hearing this, Yang Jun nodded and said, "I'm glad you understand."

"I won't say much, it's all in the wine."

Yang Anguo: "Brother, I'll toast you again." (End of this chapter)
