Chapter 137: Yan Yan Bugui becomes a sub-landlord, Xu Xu Damao

Bang Geng is making the whole courtyard restless!

After all, a good day off has been ruined by the Jia family’s mess, and everyone is actually angry!

"A good day off, ruined by the Jia family’s mess, it’s infuriating!"

"And if this gets out, our courtyard will be embarrassed! A mental patient in our courtyard!"

"That's right, if Engineer Chen hadn't stepped in, we’d all be in trouble. Who could handle Sha Zhu in his crazy state!"

"To be honest, Sha Zhu is actually a pitiful person. He was a bachelor, and then he muddled into a marriage with Jia Jia Zhangshi!"

"During this time, his money is gone, his house is gone, and his mind is full of disgusting memories of Jia Jia Zhangshi. It’s normal for a normal person to break down and become a lunatic!"

Everyone actually pities Sha Zhu now; after all, anyone who marries an ugly, vicious fat pig like Jia Jia Zhangshi would break down.

Now Sha Zhu has been sent to a mental hospital!

Seeing everyone still discussing these things, Yan Yan Bugui is also concerned!

"Alright, Sha Zhu has been sent to a mental hospital, you should discuss this less in the future!"

"You know what kind of people Jia Jia Zhangshi and her family are, don't let them come looking for trouble!"

"Sha Zhu has lived in our courtyard for so long, we can only pray he recovers soon and comes back to divorce Jia Jia Zhangshi!"

Yan Yan Bugui knows this is a good time to consolidate his position as First Uncle, so he says this deliberately.

But actually, he hopes Sha Zhu never comes back, or the courtyard will be in chaos again!

"First Uncle, it’s fortunate you stepped in this time, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble Sha Zhu would have caused?"

"That's right, it’s fortunate Yi Yi Zhonghai isn't the Uncle anymore; he actually wanted to keep Sha Zhu in the courtyard and just hid behind to throw cold arrows!"

"Exactly, he didn't want to spend a penny or put in any effort, just wanted us to go up and stop Sha Zhu. How can there be such a good thing in the world!"

Everyone now feels Yan Yan Bugui deserves the position of First Uncle and hates Yi Yi Zhonghai even more!

Yan Yan Bugui nods with satisfaction and walks toward Chen Tian’s house!

The reason he was so eager to send Sha Zhu to a mental hospital was entirely to agree with Chen Tian’s statement, with the sole purpose of pleasing Chen Tian!

Now he often lets Yu Li do housework at Chen Tian’s house to get closer to him.

Yan Yan Bugui arrives at Chen Tian’s door and knocks gently.

Yu Li is surprised when she opens the door; she didn't expect Yan Yan Bugui to take the initiative to find Chen Tian!

"Xiao Li, Engineer Chen should be home, right? I have something to discuss with him!"

Yan Yan Bugui’s tone toward Yu Li is very gentle; he wants to use Yu Li to curry favor with Chen Tian.

"Come in!"

Chen Tian’s voice comes from inside.

Yan Yan Bugui nods happily and enters with Yu Li.

Yan Yan Bugui looks around; Chen Tian’s house has many rare and good things, clearly expensive!

Now, only Chen Tian, with his salary of 200 yuan, can afford such good things in the whole courtyard!

"Engineer Chen, Sha Zhu has been sent to a mental hospital by me, so he shouldn't be back for a while!"

"Don't worry, no one will bother you during this time!" Yan Yan Bugui rubs his hands, his expression too fawning!

But clearly, he didn't come just for Sha Zhu’s business!

In this era, wanting to rent a house to others and collect rent requires a lot of procedures!

And it requires someone with status and position to act as a guarantor, after all, the planned economy is still in effect!

Chen Tian sees through Yan Yan Bugui’s fawning immediately and knows what he wants!

After all, with a rent flow of over 100 yuan, even if Yan Yan Bugui just acts as a middleman, he can get a cut of several yuan!

If Chen Tian is a bit more generous, Yan Yan Bugui could even earn half a month’s salary!

And Xu Xu Damao, who was so anxious to have Lou Xiao'e please him before, had the same idea as Yan Yan Bugui!

"Alright! Third Uncle, just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush. I really should thank Yu Li for doing housework at my place these days!"

Chen Tian sips his tea calmly and exposes Yan Yan Bugui’s thoughts.

"Sigh, actually I didn't want to bring this up, but there are regulations!"

"You should know that renting a house requires a middleman for security!"

"And no matter how much the rent is, you need such a procedure, let alone such a large amount every month!"

"Now you have three houses in the courtyard. Although Sha Zhu is sent to a mental hospital, when he comes out, he will definitely divorce Jia Jia Zhangshi and move back!"

"So for the 100 yuan rent from Sha Zhu and Liu Liu Haizhong every month, such a large amount, I think only I can be the middleman in the courtyard!"

"Of course, if Engineer Chen has other candidates, just pretend I didn't mention it, I was just asking!"

Yan Yan Bugui is excited; having nearly 100 yuan of flow pass through his hands every month is something he never dared to imagine! You know, Yan Yan Bugui has been a teacher for so many years, and his monthly salary is only twenty-something yuan!

"Really? You really agree? Thank you, Engineer Chen, I will definitely handle this well!"

Chen Tian doesn't refuse and agrees immediately!

After all, he doesn't want to go to Liu Liu Haizhong for money every month!

Now that Yan Yan Bugui, the quasi-First Uncle, is willing to be his rent collector, why wouldn't Chen Tian agree!

And Yan Yan Bugui’s performance in the courtyard satisfies Chen Tian; the flow given to Yan Yan Bugui every month can be considered Yu Li’s labor fee!

"Really? You really agreed? Thank you, Engineer Chen, I will definitely help you handle this well!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely go to Liu Liu Haizhong for the rent every month on time, and I will never delay!"

Yan Yan Bugui can't believe his ears; he didn't expect Chen Tian to agree so easily!

After all, this is a terrifying amount of nearly 100 yuan every month, and everyone in the courtyard knows the benefits!

Otherwise, Xu Xu Damao, a petty person, wouldn't have put so much effort into pleasing Chen Tian!

And Chen Tian knows well that the old lady’s house will also be rented out before long!

After all, Yi Yi Zhonghai, a hypocrite, won't really raise the old lady in his house for a lifetime!

By then, maybe the old lady will have to spend her coffin money to rent her original house!

Meanwhile, there is a knock on Chen Tian’s door.

"Engineer Chen, Engineer Chen, open the door! I have something to talk to you about!"

Xu Xu Damao has been watching Chen Tian’s door, and seeing Yan Yan Bugui inside for so long without coming out, he becomes anxious!

He also wants to be Chen Tian’s sub-landlord; he doesn't want to give such a big profit to Yan Yan Bugui for nothing!

So seeing Yan Yan Bugui still inside, he rushes over to knock on the door!

"Xu Xu Damao, what are you doing here?"

The person who opens the door isn't Chen Tian or Yu Li, but Yan Yan Bugui, who was just about to leave!

Yan Yan Bugui looks triumphant; he knows exactly why Xu Xu Damao came to knock on the door!

"Yan Yan Bugui, shouldn't you be mediating the Jia family’s business? What are you doing at Engineer Chen’s place?"
