Qin Qin Huairu said unhappily: "Then do you have any other way? Xu Xu Damao is at least a member of the Revolutionary Committee and a deputy director of the Propaganda Department. He can talk to the leaders."

Qin Qin Huairu didn't say much to Seeing Shazhu and turned to find First Aunt.

When First Aunt heard that Xu Xu Damao could help save Yi Yi Zhonghai, it was like a drowning person grabbing a straw.

Qin Qin Huairu: "First Aunt, Xu Xu Damao wants one thousand Brother Yuan."

First Aunt said with teary eyes: "I'll give it. I'll find someone to sell the house tomorrow. Even if I have to smash the pots and sell the iron, I must save Old Yi."

Shichahai

Li Shangyou, who had made a windfall, was back in action, eating and drinking with a bunch of brothers in a state-run restaurant, enjoying the flattery of his underlings, when suddenly a group of people walked towards them. These people were all broad-shouldered and thick-necked, all with flat-top haircuts.

"Bang! Crash!"

A man with a flat-top haircut threw half a brick onto the food, shattering the plate and splashing vegetable soup.

A waiter wanted to step forward but was held back by the section chief: "Don't meddle in other people's business."

He knew both groups of people; they were all street thugs, and not one of them was a good person.

He couldn't be bothered to care about dogs biting dogs.

Liu Shan rubbed his hands and said: "Who is Li Shangyou? Stand up for me!"

Liu Shan's group was numerous and powerful, and everyone was broad-shouldered and thick-necked. Li Shangyou's underlings were too scared to move, like ostriches burying their heads in the sand.

Li Shangyou stood up with an ugly face: "I am Li Shangyou! What's the matter!"

It wasn't that he hadn't encountered such things before; it was a common occurrence for people mixing on the street. He was just a bit confused. He knew Liu Shan, but why was Liu Shan looking for trouble with him? Could it be that some blind underling had offended Liu Shan?

That shouldn't be, right?

Liu Shan was considered a big shot with a face in Jingcheng; his underlings shouldn't have such guts, right?

Liu Shan said expressionlessly: "So you are Li Shangyou! I won't talk nonsense with you. Today I'm here to collect a debt for someone. I won't mention the name, but you should know who that debt of over a thousand Brother Yuan belongs to. Clear the debt before the sun sets today, and you can continue to roam the streets; otherwise, you and your brothers better be careful about broken hands and feet, becoming disabled people who need others to serve them when they go to the bathroom."

A hero doesn't suffer immediate losses. Li Shangyou knew he couldn't beat Liu Shan's group, so he had to swallow his anger and said with an ugly face: "It was my eyes that were blind, I didn't expect her to know you. Fine, since you have come forward personally, I, Li Shangyou, will give you face. I will go back and get the money now."

Liu Shan patted Li Shangyou on the shoulder, a kind smile appearing on his face: "You're a straightforward person. Li Shangyou, you give me, Liu Shan, face, and I, Liu Shan, will remember it. Let's go home, I'll pay for your meal."

Liu Shan left with his people swaggering, and Sun Chao took a roll of money out of his pocket and threw it to Li Shangyou.

"Bastard!"

Li Shangyou kicked over a stool, his face livid as he gritted his teeth: "We'll see!"

An underling leaned over: "Boss, are we really going to give the money to that person surnamed Chen?"

"Slap!"

Li Shangyou slapped him: "Bastard? Do you want me to have broken hands or broken feet!"

He, Li Shangyou, was considered a figure in Jingcheng, but in front of Liu Shan, he was a wild dog in front of a tiger.

This Liu Shan had eyes and ears everywhere, and he was very capable. He had money when he needed it and people when he needed them. He could crush him with one finger.

The situation was stronger than the person. Even if he wished he could chop Liu Shan into pieces, he had to endure humiliation and bear the burden for now, swallowing his broken teeth into his stomach.

This Liu Shan was not a kind person; he was a ruthless person who did what he said.

A real man can bend and stretch!

Now I'm not as good as you, so I can endure it!

When my fists are hard, the first thing I'll do is beat you until you shit!

Li Shangyou endured the humiliation in his heart, took his underlings back to his residence, and with a heart like a knife, took out the money and headed to Zhou Zhengyang Sect with a dark face.

"Sister Chen Xueru, it was my temporary confusion, it was my pig-oil-covered heart. I apologize to Sister Chen Xueru. This is the payment for that batch of silk, not a cent less. Sister Chen Xueru, please count it."

Finding Chen Chen Xueru, who was cleaning the silk shop, Li Shangyou lowered his head and handed over the cowhide paper bag.

Chen Chen Xueru took the cowhide paper bag and smiled sarcastically: "Yo, Li Shangyou, what wind blew you here? Didn't you say the payment for that batch of silk was lost? When did you find it?"

Li Shangyou raised his hand and slapped himself: "Sister Chen Xueru, you are a magnanimous person, I, Li Shangyou, had eyes but didn't see. I was wrong, I slapped myself. In the future, if Sister Chen Xueru needs help, just order me, I, Li Shangyou, will have no second words. But Sister Chen Xueru, you also, you clearly know Liu Shan, why did you ask me for help?"

Chen Chen Xueru was stunned for a moment, then her face turned cold: "Is there anything else? If not, get out! I get angry just looking at you. Get out quickly, don't dirty the floor I just mopped."

"Yes, yes, yes! I'm leaving now! Sister Chen Xueru, please say hello to Brother Liu Shan for me."

Li Shangyou endured his anger, turned around with a grinning face, and left.

Chen Chen Xueru looked at the large bills in the cowhide paper bag and was secretly shocked. She didn't expect Cao Cao Weiguo's path to be so wild and his ability to be so great. She only asked him for help yesterday, and today Li Shangyou sent the money.

But who is this "Liu Shan" that Li Shangyou mentioned?

When she took the money home, Fan Jinyou opened his eyes in disbelief: "Is this the payment? Sent by Li Shangyou? How was this done?"

Chen Chen Xueru pushed Fan Jinyou away with disdain: "Do you think Cao Cao Weiguo is like you? You are just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to talk. Cao Cao Weiguo is the one with real ability. No matter how Cao Cao Weiguo did it, he was able to help me get the money back. What about you? You brag to the sky every day, but when things happen, you can't even let out a fart. I really was blind, how could I have fallen for such a good-for-nothing!"

Fan Jinyou said shamefully: "Chen Chen Xueru, how are you talking! I didn't help you get the money back, but that doesn't mean you can humiliate me! How did I become a good-for-nothing! Why couldn't I get the money back? Isn't it because this money came from an improper source? I am a cadre of the country, my skills are all aboveboard, but what is Li Shangyou? He is just a low-life. I admit I misjudged the person, but if it weren't for the fact that what you did couldn't see the light, would I be manipulated by Li Shangyou? Do you know how he threatened me? He said he was going to report me to the Revolutionary Committee. Tell me, can I not be afraid? I haven't blamed you yet, and you're scolding me! You, Chen Chen Xueru, have ability! That Cao Cao Weiguo has ability! Then you two should live together! I, Fan Jinyou, won't serve you anymore! If I'm with you, I'll be unlucky sooner or later!"

"Bang!"

Fan Jinyou slammed the door and left in anger, and Chen Chen Xueru cursed with red eyes: "Fan Jinyou, you heartless thing! Go! Don't come back if you leave!"

Since the end of the public-private partnership, Chen Chen Xueru no longer had shares in the silk shop and could only be an ordinary salesperson in the shop, while Fan Jinyou became the director of the neighborhood office and entered the Revolutionary Committee, holding considerable power.

This created a gap between the two, and coupled with the fact that Fan Jinyou's mother had always looked down on Chen Chen Xueru and occasionally said things behind her back, the relationship between Fan Jinyou and Chen Chen Xueru became worse and worse, with small quarrels every three days and big quarrels every five days...

Because of Li Shangyou's matter, the two had quarreled several times.

Now that the payment was back, Fan Jinyou didn't know if he was angered by Chen Chen Xueru's scolding or jealous of Cao Cao Weiguo, but he was like a lit firecracker, suddenly exploding, leaving Chen Chen Xueru dazed.
