The conspiracy of the courtyard

Chapter 126 Ambitious

"Son, what have you been busy with these past two days? I have basically understood Xiaoman's situation.

She was not the kind of person who didn’t have enough to eat because of the severe reduction in production at home.

In fact, she was engaged three years ago. When she was about to get married, her parents unfortunately passed away. The other party broke off the engagement because he felt that three years of mourning was too long.

At the beginning of this year, she was betrothed to a widower in his thirties by her brother and sister-in-law for a high price. Xiaoman was unwilling, so she quarreled with her brother and sister-in-law and was kicked out of the house.

It took her half a year to get to us. She originally intended to come and live with her grandmother, but she couldn't find her after searching all over the city.

She didn't want to go back, so she wanted to find someone to rely on here. I listened to the details she described and felt that they didn't seem to be false. I also asked someone to verify it, and the statement of an aunt who came with her was also the same."

Chen Ping told Lu Zixuan in detail what she had learned.

Lu Zixuan replied with some surprise:

"Ah? You misunderstood. I wanted you to understand her preferences first so that Zhuzi can win her heart and get married as soon as possible.

But now it seems that there is no need to be so anxious. Looking at how shy Xiaoman and Zhuzi are when they are together, I think they will make progress soon.

I'm mostly concerned about people in the yard causing trouble."

Chen Ping nodded affirmatively.

“Well, someone has already started taking action.

Xu Damao saw them as a couple, and took the opportunity when Zhuzi went out to buy vegetables to say a few bad words to him, but was scolded and sent away by Xiaoman.

This afternoon, Aunt Zhou went to ask about Xiaoman's background again. When she saw me come back, she left in a hurry.

These people really don't give up.

By the way, tell me about the incident with Liu Haizhong. Did you do it?"

Lu Zixuan firmly denied it.

"No, it wasn't me, but I did help to stir things up a bit, hehe...

When Liu Guangqi was about to graduate from technical secondary school, I kept hinting to the Liu Guangtian brothers that if they wanted to avoid being beaten, they had to first replace Liu Haizhong's job and let his brother take over.

Let Zhuzi tell Liu Guangtian that it is difficult to get into the steel rolling mill and there is no other way except to take over the job.

I also deliberately misled Wu Guihua and Xiaohua, saying in front of Aunt Huang that they could receive an extra 20 years' salary by taking over the job.

The seeds were planted in the hearts of the four of them.

Once Liu Haizhong takes action against the Liu Guangtian brothers, I will bring up the matter of replacement, and the four of them will naturally find a way to let Liu Guangqi take over.

Although the process is slow, the effect is better than I expected.

We couldn't let Liu Haizhong lose the courage to live, and there had to be a carrot dangling in front of him at all times. So I wrote an anonymous letter to the factory director in the tone of Liu Haizhong's friend, expressing my opinions on how to deal with Liu Haizhong, and asked Zheng Rongrong to pass it to him secretly.

Being disliked by his family, unhappy at work, and excluded everywhere, for someone with such strong desires, this is more painful than killing him. Isn't this much more interesting than just attacking him directly?

Who do you want to see enjoying life next? Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui, the deaf woman, Qin Huairu, whatever you choose.

My plan is basically complete and it won't take as long as it did with the bangs.

I have nothing to do these two days, so Zhuzi and I set a little trap for Yi Zhonghai. I think we will see the effect in a week."

"In fact, I can only say that I dislike them, not hate them. If I have to hate them, I can only hate myself for being too naive and being fooled by simple tricks.

Son, I want to compete with them myself. Do you think my plan is feasible?"

Chen Ping asked Lu Zixuan tentatively, and when he nodded, she told him her plan.

"I asked the people at the grain station to control the quality of their grain first. Anyway, their grain books can only be used at our grain station, so there is no need to worry about mistakes. Now it has been completed.

Next, I plan to arrange a few guys who used to work in personal grain stores to take turns guarding their way home.

Sell ​​them normal grain at a high price, and then buy the inferior grain from them at a low price.

Doing so can quickly consume their money. Without money, no matter how many plans they make, they will all be in vain.

Didn't you say that the famine was more severe around 60? I feel that it will be more severe next year. Now the supply from our grain station has obviously decreased.

I will make them completely destitute in the next two years. Since they are dependent on the deaf old woman, I will spread the word again.

It was said that the deaf old woman often went to restaurants alone to buy snacks and food, which made them become real enemies and kill each other.

When they have killed almost all of them, I will step in to resolve the conflict.

What I want now is not just that they dare not to provoke me, but to make them surrender. I want to control the courtyard and make everyone work for me.

Why can they control others? Why can't I? Son, can you do that? Isn't that a little too ambitious? "

After Chen Ping finished speaking, she asked Lu Zixuan uncertainly.

Lu Zixuan was shocked by Chen Ping's proposal, but he quickly calmed down and put forward some opinions.

"What's so difficult about this? We are not dealing with any large units, just 20 or 30 households. As long as we grasp their economic lifeline and use some small tricks of kindness and severity, we can easily deal with it.

Mom, you have really grown a lot in the past few years. Give your research report of the past two years to Lao Tong tomorrow, and he will teach you what to do next. "

A week passed by in a flash.

Chen Ping's family was filled with joy and good things happened one after another.

First, Chen Ping lived up to everyone's expectations and was promoted to deputy director of the grain station.

Then, He Yuzhu and Cheng Xiaoman, the lovers, finally got married, which was truly a double happiness.

He Yuzhu's wedding was not a big deal. He simply packed some fruit candies and peanuts and went door to door to announce the good news so that everyone could get to know Cheng Xiaoman.

Of course, some families were not included - the Long, Yi, Yan, Jia, and Xu families.

As for Liu Haizhong's family, since the head of the family had already been changed, I also notified them.

But in this ocean of joy, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu were like ships swept by a storm and encountered bad luck.

They were first caught stealing by the security department and were punished with a ruler for three days.

When they paid the fines and went home, not a single piece of skin on their bodies was intact, not even the soles of their feet were spared.

Then, the entire factory was notified of the criticism, and the good image that Yi Zhonghai had worked hard to build over the past two years collapsed overnight. The newly promoted seventh-level fitter was directly demoted to first level.

Jia Dongxu also fell from the position of a second-level fitter and started his apprenticeship career again.

When Cheng Xiaoman heard the news, she immediately announced it to everyone at the dinner table, but the three of them remained expressionless and had no reaction after hearing it.

Her eyes widened and she immediately began to question He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, didn't you say you didn't hide anything from me? How do you explain this? I trusted you so much and got the marriage certificate with you in vain."

He Yuzhu explained in a panic:

“It’s not that I don’t want to talk about it, it’s just that the matter is complicated and I don’t understand it clearly.

Xuanxuan just asked me to introduce him to a few workshop workers, and I don’t know anything about the others.”

Seeing that He Yuzhu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, Lu Zixuan hurried out to smooth things over.

"Aunt, don't misunderstand my uncle. He really doesn't know anything. Let me tell you."
