The strong fisherman in the courtyard

Xu Damao fell into deep thought. To be honest, he hadn't really thought it through yet. Then Xu Damao looked at Li Ming with a sly look on his face, "Mingzi, you are the smartest among us brothers. Can you tell me something?"

Good fellow, if you can use me, then I am smart, right? If you can't use me, then you are the smartest person in Siheyuan, Xu Damao?

"I mean, do you plan to let him rest for a few days or a few months?"

Xu Damao suddenly realized what was going on. To be honest, they were all neighbors living in the same courtyard, and the most he could do was to beat Yan Jiecheng up. But when he saw Li Ming in front of him, he thought of the time when Yan Jiecheng sneaked out in the middle of the night to kill a chicken, and he couldn't help but shudder!

He even sneaked out in the middle of the night to kill a chicken, but Xu Damao had married a girl that Yan Jiecheng also liked. Although the girl didn't like Yan Jiecheng, it was obvious that Yan Jiecheng was not an unreasonable person!

What if Yan Jiecheng gets so upset that he sneaks into Xu Damao's house in the middle of the night to deal with him?

"Damn it! Give this bastard a serious lesson!" Xu Damao gritted his teeth, veins popping out on his face.

"Then we have to prepare some weapons. We can't just beat people with our fists, Brother Damao." Li Ming said with a smile.

He didn't need to prepare any tools. The baseball bat he received as a reward last time was still resting in the space, so he could just take it out and use it this time.

"That's easy. I can just take down the legs of a stool when I get back. It will be easy to hide it in your clothes when the time comes." Xu Damao looked at Li Ming, "Would you like me to prepare it for you?"

"No need. After all, we are the little fighting experts in the courtyard. Isn't it okay not to always prepare these things?"

"Hehe, you kid!" Xu Damao grinned from ear to ear. This should be the first time that the two brothers team up to beat someone up, and Xu Damao was still looking forward to it.

Although the two brothers had united to deal with He Yuzhu before, it had never come to this point, so Yan Jiecheng could be considered to be proud of it.

I believe Yan Jiecheng will be very happy when he knows this!

Chapter 374 Preparation

"Mingzi, thank you for your sister-in-law's help. Come, let's have a drink!" Xu Damao raised his glass and said arrogantly.

But then he thought of Li Ming's alcohol tolerance, and quickly looked around. His new wife was still cleaning the last dish in the kitchen, so he whispered, "But what is our relationship between brothers? Just a token of appreciation is enough." After saying that, Xu Damao took a sip quietly, which made Li Ming laugh.

"Okay, Brother Damao has the final say!" Li Ming was not polite either. He clinked glasses with Xu Damao and then started to attack the roast duck on the table.

“By the way, when are we going to start?” Li Ming said vaguely while chewing the duck.

"Well, tomorrow? Are you free tomorrow night?" Xu Damao acted like a thief. If you didn't know, you would think that Xu Damao was not at home.

Li Ming nodded and said, "No problem. I like to do it at night as a digestion exercise before meals." He then remembered that when he first started working, he would eat and then go out to beat people up under the pretext of digestion.

But this time it should be considered as exercise before meals, so it’s not a big problem!

"Okay, let's meet tomorrow. I'll come find you at six o'clock. We can hang out outside for a while, but remember to bring your stuff."

"Don't worry, I'm a professional at this kind of thing."

. . . . . .

The next day.

It was a little after five in the afternoon when Li Ming came back from outside. During the day he had delivered some food to the Liu brothers and Wang Da and Wang Er. The sales of food had increased sharply recently and the demand was almost insufficient to meet the supply.

On the way, he also left a hundred kilograms of grain with Wang Da and Wang Er. He didn't count it carefully, but it was almost the same. He would find a way to transport it to the steel mill and it would be complete. The position of the chief purchasing section of the steel mill was beckoning to Li Ming, and Comrade Li would soon be able to get his first minor official position.

By then, Xu Damao will be so jealous that he will die!

"Hey, I was wondering why you weren't at home, it turns out you went out?" Xu Damao stood at the hanging flower gate in the front yard and watched Li Ming walk in from outside and said with a smile.

Li Ming nodded and said, "Brother Damao, wait for a moment. I'll go back and get my things. We'll set off after I get them."

"Okay, it won't take a while, but have you told your family?"

"Don't worry, we'll avoid the Yan family when we leave, it's safe!"

Xu Damao nodded slightly. Although he seemed to be smoking, his eyes always drifted towards the Yan family. He had been staring at the Yan family for a while. Of course, he couldn't let anyone find out when he was doing something bad, right? Xu Damao had plenty of experience in this regard, and was quite professional!

. . . . . .

Street vendors.

Xu Damao and Li Ming each held a big bowl of wontons and started eating them while they were hot. With a little chili oil, it was so delicious!

“Is it the small alley across the street?” Li Ming indicated with his eyes after finishing eating the last wonton.

"Burp!" Xu Damao rubbed his stomach contentedly, then threw a Daqianmen to Li Ming. "Yes, I have studied it thoroughly. This alley will lead to our courtyard in a short time. It is the closest route to the soda factory."

"That bastard Yan Jiecheng always walks through this alley when he gets home from work. Even though there's no one here at night, it's still close to home!"

"Is there a suitable place to hide?"

"Yes, someone dumped a pile of firewood in the alley, and we happened to be hiding behind it."

Look, this is called professionalism!

Sometimes Li Ming always felt that it was a waste of Xu Damao's talent to be a projectionist, which restricted Xu Damao's life development!

Li Ming gave Xu Damao a thumbs up to show his approval.

"Then let's leave now?"

Xu Damao glanced around and saw no one was paying attention, so he threw two dollars on the table and walked across the street with Li Ming.

There are not many people passing by this alley at this moment. Those who occasionally pass by are in a hurry to go home, and no one pays any attention to them.

"Did you bring the things?" Xu Damao glanced at Li Ming who looked relaxed and asked doubtfully.

After all, this man didn't look like he was carrying anything on him. Xu Damao didn't even move his left arm while eating just now. The stool leg was hidden inside, and his left arm couldn't move at all.

Li Ming first pretended to take out a corner of the sack from his pocket, then quickly stuffed it back in, and then tapped his trouser legs with his hands, making a very crisp sound.

Xu Damao suddenly realized that he had put it in his trouser legs. Why didn't he think of that? But the legs of the stool were too long and he couldn't put it in!

However, seeing that Li Ming was so well prepared, Xu Damao was relieved. As long as Li Ming didn't let down at the critical moment, the rest would be minor problems!

. . . . . .

"It's seven o'clock." Li Ming glanced at his watch in the light of the match. Logically, Yan Jiecheng should have arrived by now.

Xu Damao's face was solemn, and his right hand holding the cigarette was shaking unconsciously. This was the first time he did such an exciting thing, and he was very excited at the moment. Li Ming, on the other hand, was as steady as an old dog, and it was obvious at first glance that he was experienced.

"Wait a little longer, it should be here soon!" Xu Damao glanced across the dark alley, and suddenly a dark shadow appeared at the entrance of the alley.

The two of them looked outside, one walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow, their pace looked like they had drunk fake alcohol, and they immediately confirmed the situation of the person who had come.

"Yan Jiecheng!"*2.

The two looked at each other and said in tacit understanding.

"Fix the arm and teach this bastard a lesson!" Xu Damao said in a trembling voice. This was what they had discussed in advance. As for the leg, that would be a bit outrageous. There was already a lame man in their yard, and another one who had a lame leg.

If everyone in their courtyard is crippled, this would be too neat and inappropriate!

Li Ming nodded, took out his mask and put it on. Xu Damao followed suit and took out his mask and put it on.

The two men took out their tools at the same time. Xu Damao held the leg of a stool, while Li Ming held a baseball bat that was painted with wood.

He tinkered with this a couple of days ago. Otherwise, with its silver-gray color of fine steel, it would be too eye-catching. Steel and other things are rare these days, so one has to be low-key!

"Clap clap clap."

"Clap clap clap."

No one knew what kind of legs Yan Jiecheng had that could make his cloth shoes sound like slippers, but he was getting closer and closer to the two of them.

As agreed before, the sack and the first control will be given to Li Ming, and the remaining main output will be given to Xu Damao.

Both of them wanted to vent their anger, but since both of them were outputting, they were afraid that Yan Jiecheng would be killed, so Xu Damao was even more resentful, and Li Ming had to give up the position where he could vent his anger the most.

Yan Jiecheng was happily calculating how much money he could get after finishing this short-term job! It must be said that even a temporary worker in such a large factory would be paid a much higher price!

No wonder everyone is scrambling to get a job in this state-owned factory!

Chapter 375 The Yellow-Faced Man Gets Beaten

"Who?!"

Yan Jiecheng's eyes went dark and he roared. He was just happily calculating how much money he could make, why did his eyes suddenly go dark? There was also a faint smell of stench!

The following powerful kick made Yan Jiecheng fall to the ground. Now he realized that he was being tricked!

Yan Jiecheng, who was about to continue shouting, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach and quickly curled up, covering his stomach with his hands.

Xu Damao, who was outside, saw Li Ming kill the enemy with one blow and couldn't help but give Li Ming a thumbs up. Li Ming rolled his eyes at him and signaled Xu Damao to hurry up and work!

Xu Damao picked up the stool leg and smashed it hard at Yan Jiecheng's arm! Especially when he thought of the disagreement with Yan Jiecheng a few days ago and his wife who was being missed, he hit her even harder!

No matter whether Yan Jiecheng really misses Yu Li or not, Xu Damao can't afford to take the risk! If you change a man, as long as he is a boy, he will not be able to resist it!

Accompanied by a few muffled groans from Yan Jiecheng, the leg of Xu Damao's stool broke with a "crack", causing Li Ming's eyes to twitch.

He didn't know whether Yan Jiecheng's arm was broken or not, but it was obvious that the quality of the furniture in Xu Damao's house was definitely not good!

Xu Damao was also stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Ming blankly. He really didn't expect such an unexpected situation to occur?

Li Ming pulled Xu Damao, picked up the half of the stool leg that fell on the ground, and retreated frantically. Why didn't he run? Was he going to let Xu Damao hit him twice more with his baseball bat?

Li Ming had a sense of propriety, knowing the material of this thing, but Xu Damao had no sense of propriety! If he really got angry and missed the target, it would be a big deal if he hit Yan Jiecheng's head!

Li Ming has traveled through time and space and has not yet enjoyed the beauty of the young ladies of this era, so he cannot enter the fence!

The two men fled frantically and slipped into the alley opposite the steel rolling mill courtyard. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief, especially Xu Damao. He was really confused just now. If Li Ming hadn't pulled him, he would still be confused.

"Are you satisfied?" Li Ming asked as he threw the baseball bat into the space.

Xu Damao nodded, the red in his eyes gradually disappeared, and with trembling hands he took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up, "Great."

The voice was quite hoarse, as it should be after the first time.

"That's fine. Let's go back after smoking. I just don't know what happened to Yan Jie's arm." Li Ming shrugged.

But he guessed that it was not broken. Although Xu Damao's blows seemed to be aimed at the arm, the sound of the impact made Li Ming feel that Xu Damao hit Yan Jiecheng on the buttocks.

I hope Yan Jiecheng’s butt is okay.

Xu Damao suddenly became happy. This time it was really exciting. "Mingzi, thank you!"

"No matter what the situation is with this grandson, I, your brother Damao, am happy this time!"

"I feel like you hit Yan Jiecheng on the butt."

When Xu Damao heard what Li Ming said, the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground, feeling very embarrassed.

"Hehe, it's the first time, and I'm not familiar with it yet." Xu Damao touched the back of his head awkwardly and smiled.

"Okay, let's go back. As for where you spanked him, I guess we'll know tonight or tomorrow." Li Ming said happily, "Actually, spanking is not bad, haha!"

Xu Damao also laughed when he heard what Li Ming said. Compared with hitting the arms, hitting the buttocks is indeed more funny.

"Okay, let's go back!"

The two of them calmed down and went straight into the courtyard.

"Xiao Ming?"

Li Ming's face turned dark. He knew without thinking that it was Wu Xuanxuan's voice. What the hell is Xiao Ming!

"Brother Damao, please go back first. I have to correct someone's wording."

Xu Damao nodded happily and walked into the courtyard. He really liked Wu Xuanxuan's looks before, but later he gave up the idea when he couldn't have her. Especially since Wu Xuanxuan had a good relationship with his brothers, Xu Damao was still very happy.

"Sister Xuanxuan, why are you not sleeping so late at night? Are you being kind enough to feed mosquitoes in the yard?" Li Ming joked in the dim night.

Wu Xuanxuan snorted, "Why do I have to report to you when I come out?"

"That's not necessary. We are mainly curious."

Taking advantage of the moonlight, Li Ming was able to see Wu Xuanxuan's face. She was very beautiful and looked like an immortal!

"What did you and Xu Damao do?"

Sure enough, every girl is curious.

"We went out for dinner. His wife had taken a job pasting matchboxes at the street office before. This is just a way of expressing gratitude." Li Ming spoke without thinking and went straight to the point.

Besides, this reason was something he and Xu Damao had discussed before, and there was absolutely no mistake.

"What about you? Are you out so late?"

"What's it to you!" Wu Xuanxuan retorted with a red face. She didn't expect Li Ming to be so curious.

"Hey, the moonlight is nice today. I'll go back first." The girl didn't say anything, and Li Ming didn't plan to ask any more questions, but looking at her blushing little face, he guessed that she went to the toilet, so Li Ming simply escaped by moonlight.

Front yard, Li's house.
