Chapter 2239
Zhang Zuo threw the clothes aside with great backbone, let out a cold snort from his nose, and strode toward the door, every step firm and powerful.
When he reached the door, he reached out without hesitation and pushed open the tightly closed door with force. As it opened with a creak, the sunlight instantly spilled onto his naked body.
Then he puffed out his chest, held his head high, and strode out of the room, looking quite arrogant, like a proud, featherless rooster.
Zhou Andong, Tang Lin, and Gu Bing watched everything happening in front of them, their mouths slightly agape. They really didn't expect Brother Dazuo to be so tough, daring to rush out of the door wearing only his underwear; this courage was truly admirable.
Just as they were about to get up and follow to watch the fun, Zhang Zuo, who had walked out aggressively a second ago, retreated back in a flash with lightning speed like an arrow leaving the bow.
At the same time, he closed the door very quickly, and with a bang, the whole room trembled slightly because of the huge door-closing sound.
Just when Zhou Andong and the others didn't understand what was going on, a clear sound of footsteps and the conversation of two women came from outside the door.
"Sister Liu, just now I seemed to see a man with a bare butt 'whoosh' into the entertainment room!"
"Did you see wrong?" another female voice responded: "Chairman Zhou and the others are playing mahjong in the entertainment room; how could a man with a bare butt run in there?"
After hearing this, the young woman couldn't help but start to doubt her own eyes: "Could it be... could it really be that I was dazzled?"
The heavy footsteps stopped in front of the window, but there was a screen in the room blocking the window, obstructing the view inside and outside.
People outside couldn't see the scene inside the room, and similarly, people inside the room had to move the screen away to see the scene outside the window.
In just an instant, the footsteps that had stopped started again, walking further and further away until they finally disappeared.
"Hahaha..."
Tang Lin was the first to let out a deafening roar of laughter, followed by Gu Bing, who also laughed out loud.
And Zhou Andong looked very reserved and didn't laugh, but the expression on his face was very hateful no matter how you looked at it.
Zhang Zuo completely ignored their schadenfreude. After the fading footsteps completely disappeared and the outside returned to tranquility, he pushed the door open a narrow slit with gentle movements, then carefully poked his head out and looked around.
After confirming that there was really no one outside, he rushed out of the door and darted into the reception hall opposite like lightning.
If Brother Dazuo were allowed to participate in the 100-meter sprint world championships in his underwear, not to mention breaking the world record, he could probably compete with those famous athletes.
Seeing this, Tang Lin's curiosity was aroused, and he stood up and walked quickly to the door. Because of the obstruction of the branches, he couldn't see the situation in the reception hall opposite, so he walked out.
In just a minute or two, Tang Lin returned and said with a smile: "Silly Zuo is on the phone. Guess what he wants to do?"
Zhou Andong took a puff of his cigarette leisurely: "Does this still need guessing? He must be calling someone to send him clothes and money."
Gu Bing also lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled the smoke, a smile rising at the corners of his mouth: "Wait until winter, let's find Brother Dazuo to play cards again. At that time, let him run a lap outside in his underwear again."
"Forget it, do you think that guy is really stupid?" Zhou Andong also said with a smile on his face: "Next time, he won't be so easy to fool."
Tang Lin, who had been standing at the door, stretched his arms, gave a big, comfortable stretch, then looked at his watch and said: "It's not even four o'clock yet, and there's still more than an hour until dinner. What's next?"
Zhou Andong stood up and came to the door, standing by Tang Lin, and said: "You go find Liu Zhanyong and implement the next project as soon as possible."
"Alright!" Tang Lin agreed and walked away.
Watching Tang Lin's receding back, Zhou Andong gave a long yawn and said to Gu Bing: "I'm going to sleep for a while; you go keep Brother Dazuo company."
Gu Bing curled his lips and turned to leave: "I'm not keeping that idiot company."
Zhou Andong laughed "heh," turned around, and entered the side courtyard to find a guest room to sleep in.
He wanted to lie on the sofa in the reception hall for a while, but with Zhang Zuo there, it was impossible for him to sleep.
With that guy's personality, he would definitely try every means to retaliate against him, so it was impossible to have a good night's sleep.
At this time, he really couldn't afford to provoke Brother Dazuo, so he could only hide far away.
Half an hour later, a Nissan Bluebird stopped at the entrance of Anqiu Hutong. Immediately after, Kan Feng got out of the car, clutching a leather bag, carrying newly bought short sleeves, big shorts, and a pair of slippers.
Ever since Zhang Zuo helped him get some basic project work at Yuxi Real Estate, this guy's life had undergone earth-shaking changes.
After the Spring Festival this year, he struck while the iron was hot and established an engineering company, which now has more than five hundred employees. You know, a construction company with three hundred or more employees has already entered the ranks of medium-sized enterprises.
At the same time, he also heard news that Beijing was about to relax restrictions on construction qualifications. Although the specific opening time was not yet clear, just such a piece of news made the ambition in his heart grow like wild grass.
For the past two days, he had been researching the various classifications of construction qualifications. Among them, the general contracting qualification for housing construction projects was undoubtedly an insurmountable mountain for him at this time, and wanting to obtain it was almost a pipe dream.
However, the professional contracting qualification for foundation and foundation engineering gave him a glimmer of hope. With his own existing strength and experience, it shouldn't be too difficult to obtain this qualification.
Although most of the work he is currently engaged in is concentrated in foundation and foundation engineering, due to the lack of general contracting qualifications, the work in his hands is subcontracted to him by general contractors. To put it bluntly, he is at most a slightly larger construction foreman right now.
If he could successfully obtain the general contracting qualification, it would really be different, and the title of "General Manager Kan" would no longer be empty, but well-deserved.
At that time, as long as he worked hard and ensured the quality of the project, with his relationship with Brother Dazuo and Chairman Zhou, would he still be afraid of having no work to do?
Later, when he had experience and the company's scale grew, it wouldn't be hopeless to obtain the general contracting qualification for housing construction projects.
(For those who have forgotten this character, please look back at Chapter 1075)
"Who are you looking for, please?"
Kan Feng had just gotten out of the car and hadn't had time to stand firm when his path was blocked by a burly, serious-looking security guard. The security guard looked Kan Feng up and down with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.
Kan Feng's face immediately filled with a smile, and he raised the shopping bag in his hand high: "Brother, hello, I'm looking for Zhang Zuo. This is what Brother Dazuo asked me to send him."
Just then, Wang Wentian came out. He glanced toward the alley entrance, recognized Kan Feng, and walked over.
"General Manager Kan, why are you here?" Wang Wentian walked up close and greeted him with a smile.
Although Kan Feng had only met Wang Wentian twice, he had firmly engraved the faces of the bodyguards around Zhou Andong in his mind, so he naturally wouldn't forget who this person was.
"Brother Wang, Brother Dazuo just called me and asked me to send him clothes and shoes. So, after I put down the phone, I rushed over to send them."
Wang Wentian couldn't help but be stunned, muttering to himself. Isn't Young Master Zhang playing cards with the Chairman? How did he lose his clothes while playing?
Thinking of this, Wang Wentian couldn't help but blink, but he didn't continue to ask. The main reason was that this question was too sensitive; it was truly terrifying to think about.
"Let's go, I'll take you to find him."
Wang Wentian said, turned around, and walked back, while Kan Feng followed closely behind.
Kan Feng used to be a hutong wanderer, because he collected scrap, so he went everywhere.
Therefore, before Zhou Andong bought this courtyard, he often came here.
Later, Zhou Andong bought the front and back courtyards and started repairs and renovations, and he also came a few times.
At that time, it looked even more dilapidated, broken, and messy than before the repairs.
At that time, he was still wondering, what exactly is Chairman Zhou thinking?
Everyone else is racking their brains to escape the Sihe Academy, but he bought such a large courtyard.
He pondered for several days but couldn't figure it out. After it was renovated, he didn't come here again.
Now looking at it, even the alley outside is different from before.
The ground is paved with antique blue bricks, and ginkgo trees are planted on both sides of the road.
Exquisite and unique flower beds are carefully built at the foot of the wall, and at this moment, the flowers in the beds are blooming in competition.
After Kan Feng entered the courtyard, his eyes widened suddenly; the scene before him completely overturned the image in his memory.
Is this still the dilapidated Sihe Academy in his impression?
From entering the first courtyard, walking to the second courtyard, and finally arriving at the third courtyard, the exterior of the houses along the way has taken on a brand-new look.
The mottled and peeling walls were repainted, and the antique doors and windows were repaired and painted, radiating a brand-new luster.
And in the courtyard, there are rockeries, small bridges, flowing water, and unknown trees, dotted here and there in the courtyard, high or low, sparse or dense. It is summer now, and some flowers are blooming brightly, colorful and clustered.
At this moment, Kan Feng's inner thoughts were completely different from before. If one lived in such a Sihe Academy, who the hell would want to move away?
Wang Wentian knocked on the door of the entertainment room, heard no response from inside, and reached out to push the door open; there was no one inside.
"Broken up?" Wang Wentian retreated: "In the afternoon, the Chairman and Young Master Zhang were playing mahjong. I don't know when they broke up. You wait here, I'll go ask."
Wang Wentian walked along the bluestone-paved path toward the moon gate of the side courtyard. When he reached the moon gate, he turned around as if possessed, walked a few steps along the covered walkway by the reception hall, and then leaned on the window to take a look.
This is the tea room, separated from the reception area by a large fish tank, and there is no one inside.
Wang Wentian continued to walk forward, arrived at the door of the reception hall, and knocked.
"Who is it?"
Very suddenly, Zhang Zuo's voice came from inside.
Wang Wentian laughed, pushed the door open, and saw Zhang Zuo, wearing only his underwear, pillowing his head on the sofa armrest, legs crossed, chewing on an apple.
"Wentian!" Zhang Zuo tilted his head and glanced at Wang Wentian at the door: "Zhou Dongzi isn't here; go find him in another room."
The expression on Wang Wentian's face became very strange; he really didn't expect that Zhang Zuo was really left with only his underwear.
"Young Master Zhang, Kan Feng is here to send you clothes."
"Where is he?"
Zhang Zuo rolled over and got up, then swaggered to the door and saw Kan Feng wandering at the entrance of the entertainment room.
"Little Hornet, what the hell are you standing there for? Come over quickly."
Hearing the shout, Kan Feng turned his head to look, and seeing it was Zhang Zuo, he ran over quickly.
"Brother Dazuo, I bought your clothes and shoes for you."
Kan Feng didn't dare to ask why Zhang Zuo was left with only his underwear, but this wasn't anything strange.
It's the dog days of summer now; when there's no one around, he is like this at home, wearing only underwear.
Zhang Zuo took the shopping bag, turned around, and returned to the room, then took out the short sleeves, big shorts, and slippers to put on.
Then he pulled the short sleeves, feeling they were a bit big; would it affect his handsome appearance?
"Little Hornet!" Brother Dazuo, wearing clothes, regained his momentum: "Did you bring money?"
"Brought it!" Kan Feng hurriedly took out a stack of brand-new hundred-yuan bills from his leather bag: "Brother Dazuo, this is ten thousand, just taken from the bank, still hot."
Zhang Zuo took the money and threw it on the coffee table: "Come in and sit for a while. After dinner tonight, I'm going to fight those three big idiots again. You stay behind me to provide support."
"Alright!"
After Kan Feng responded, he stepped into the reception hall. Once inside, he began to look around curiously, his eyes full of amazement.
The reception hall is very large, spacious, bright, and antique furniture is placed in an orderly manner. Exquisite calligraphy and paintings hang on the walls, and soft carpets are laid on the floor. Everything looks elegant and comfortable.
Kan Feng wandered back and forth in the room, touching this and looking at that for a while, then stood in front of the huge fish tank, staring at the fish for a long time, and then went to the tea room for a turn.
Watching Kan Feng wandering around blindly in the room, Zhang Zuo said impatiently: "Can you sit down and stay honestly for a while? What are you wandering around for?"
Kan Feng hurriedly walked to the sofa and sat down, then said with great emotion: "I really never dreamed before that a Sihe Academy could be so beautiful.
Being in such an environment, I feel like my whole person has relaxed, and my mood is exceptionally comfortable. If I had lived in a Sihe Academy like this at the beginning, how could I have escaped at all costs?"
