Chapter 328
The three uncles took the lead, and the residents followed suit to join in the fun.
Since ancient times, people don't worry about scarcity, but about inequality!
If everyone is poor and miserable, then there's nothing to talk about.
But everyone is poor, and only you are rich.
How can those poor people not be jealous and greedy?
The residents who wanted to take advantage didn't want to miss the opportunity, and they all began to echo and discuss:
"That's right! We're all in the same courtyard!"
"Neighbors should be united and friendly, and you can't eat alone!"
"As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors; when we encounter urgent matters, it's still us neighbors."
"Leaving the collective is not a good thing."
"You can't be too selfish!"
"When there's a happy event, everyone celebrates together; how fun it would be!"
One word after another, although the voices weren't loud and they weren't directly speaking to Cao Weiguo.
But the voices weren't small either, enough for Cao Weiguo to hear.
Cao Weiguo sneered in his heart; these beasts are really something.
Yi Zhonghai is used to moral kidnapping, and these beasts also like to take advantage of others.
Borrowing various names to demand benefits!
It seems like if you don't take advantage, you're losing out!
Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "I originally thought that such a small matter wouldn't be worth making everyone spend money."
"But I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic, so I'll set up a few tables of wine."
"Let everyone get together and have fun!"
"However, I have to say this to everyone first."
"Our relationship is so good, the gift money should just be a token; you can't spend too much."
As he spoke, Cao Weiguo gave Chi Ping'an a look.
Chi Ping'an, who used to be a street loafer, is sharp.
He instantly understood Cao Weiguo's meaning.
"Director Cao, you're being too polite!"
"We are neighbors in the same courtyard, and our relationship is closer than relatives."
"You set up a banquet to treat guests; I'm basking in your joy."
"If I don't give a gift of ten or eight yuan, how could I have the face to go out in the future!"
"The men of Jingcheng can't afford to lose that face!"
Cao Weiguo and Chi Ping'an sang in harmony, and the residents who wanted to eat the banquet were stunned.
They came to take advantage and eat from the rich!
Why do they have to give gift money!
And Chi Ping'an, this turtle grandson, opened his mouth and asked for a gift of ten or eight yuan.
Aren't you afraid the wind will flash your tongue!
For an ordinary family's wedding banquet, if a relative gives five mao or one yuan, it's considered generous.
This guy opens his mouth and asks for ten or eight yuan!
This is robbery!
Lu Jin Peng said excitedly: "Weiguo is righteous, and we neighbors can't be bad either; I'll declare first, as long as Weiguo you set up the wine, based on our relationship, even if I have to smash the pots and sell the iron, I won't be lacking."
Good guy, isn't it just mooching a banquet?
Does this have to be smashing pots and selling iron?
This banquet must not be eaten even if I die!
The residents were stunned, wishing they could cover their faces and run away.
Chi Ping'an, Lu Jin Peng, and Cao Weiguo have a good relationship, so they will definitely give gifts.
The prerequisite for these residents to eat the banquet is that they have a good relationship with Cao Weiguo.
If the relationship isn't good, what face do you have to eat the banquet?
Since the relationship is good, they have to follow Chi Ping'an and Lu Jin Peng to give gifts.
Otherwise, if they eat and drink for free, wouldn't they be laughed at if it got out?
But if they don't eat the banquet, doesn't that prove their relationship with Cao Weiguo isn't good?
Then what face will they have to ask Cao Weiguo for help in the future?
There are quite a few people here who are counting on Cao Weiguo to help solve their job problems.
Suddenly, the residents who wanted to follow the trend and take advantage were confused!
Standing in place, caught in a dilemma, as if being roasted on a fire.
This is great, isn't it!
If Cao Weiguo sets up the banquet, they have to give gifts.
With Chi Ping'an and Lu Jin Peng, these two turtle grandsons, setting the example, they can't give too little.
If they give too little, not only will they offend Cao Weiguo, but it's also fucking shameful.
The residents, whose hearts were bleeding, couldn't help but complain about the three uncles who stirred up trouble.
Why stir up trouble for no reason!
Shazhu shouted: "Cao Weiguo, Chi Ping'an, Lu Jin Peng, what are you three pretending for!"
"Who doesn't know you three are birds of a feather."
"Asking everyone to eat a meal and still wanting gifts, do you want face or not!"
Chi Ping'an: "Shazhu, what kind of dog fart are you releasing!"
Lu Jin Peng: "Are you looking for a beating!"
Cao Weiguo said with a cold face: "Shazhu! I didn't intend to set up a banquet, it was you and the three uncles who came to my door."
"You took the initiative to suggest I set up a banquet to entertain the neighbors in the courtyard, and let everyone bask in the joy."
"I listened to the First Uncle's words and felt it was very right."
"Our courtyard is a big family, and the relationship is better than relatives."
"Then let's set up a few tables of wine and sit together to have fun."
"And take the opportunity to enhance our feelings."
"This is not wrong, right?"
"Chi Ping'an and Lu Jin Peng are willing to give gifts, that's because they have a good relationship with me."
"These two value feelings and face, so I couldn't refuse their intentions."
"As for whether others are willing to give gifts, it's all up to their intentions."
Cao Weiguo looked at the Second Uncle as he spoke: "Second Uncle, our relationship doesn't need to be said."
"You tell me, if I invite you to eat the banquet, what's your attitude?"
The Second Uncle was stunned when he heard this, his brain spinning rapidly.
After thinking, he puffed out his big belly and said: "That goes without saying, our relationship is so good, if I give a gift of less than 10 yuan, I wouldn't have the face to eat."
How could the Second Uncle not know this was a multiple-choice question handed over by Cao Weiguo.
Giving a gift means the relationship is good!
Not giving a gift means the relationship is bad!
The Second Uncle was still counting on Cao Weiguo to help him become an official, so the relationship must be good!
The relationship is not only good, but it must be better than the two turtle grandsons, Chi Ping'an and Lu Jin Peng!
With such a good relationship, can Cao Weiguo not help him become an official?
10 yuan is not a small amount, but as long as he can become an official, he's willing to pay 100 yuan!
Once the Second Uncle expressed his position, the residents were completely panicked.
Chi Ping'an, Lu Jin Peng, and the Second Uncle set the example.
If they were lacking, they would be laughed at to death in the future.
Cao Weiguo turned to look at the First Uncle and sneered:
