1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Chapter 379 Competitors

Li Weiguo guessed that maybe Liu Haizhong had secretly given him some benefits. After all, given Yan Bugui's calculating nature, he would not do anything that had no benefits.

Given Liu Haizhong's power-obsessed personality, if he wants to achieve his goal, he must first get rid of his competitor Yan Bugui. He is definitely capable of doing such a thing.

Who would have thought that Li Weiguo had actually guessed it right, and Liu Haizhong had actually bribed Yan Bugui.

As for the price, of course Liu Haizhong was willing to spend a lot of money and gave Yan Bugui five dollars.

It is conceivable that with these five dollars hanging on his shoulders, Yan Bugui certainly cannot compete with Liu Haizhong.

In fact, Yan Bugui also had his own plans.

In his opinion, five dollars was not a small amount of money, and there was nothing to lose by saying a few words for Liu Haizhong.

Besides, he is used to being the boss. He will take advantage of any benefits and keep quiet when there are no benefits. It is so worry-free.

When encountering troubles, there are the first and second uncles to take charge. Wouldn't it be better to be the third uncle?

Everyone in the courtyard now thinks that it is natural for the second uncle to become the first uncle, and no one disagrees.

After all, the original uncle is gone, so it is reasonable for the second uncle to be promoted to a higher level.

Just when everyone thought that Liu Haizhong would definitely become the Grandpa, an unexpected voice rang out: "Everyone listen to me, I want to compete for the position of Grandpa!"

Everyone turned their heads and were surprised because the person who spoke was Xu Damao!

At this moment, everyone was stunned. No one expected Xu Damao to come and compete for the position of uncle.

Xu Damao raised his head slightly, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "What's wrong, can't I compete fairly with the second uncle?"

Everyone looked at each other, and then subconsciously looked at Liu Haizhong's family.

Liu Haizhong was also dumbfounded. He thought that no one would compete with him for the position of the uncle, and he would definitely be able to become the uncle smoothly this time.

Unexpectedly, Xu Damao showed up unexpectedly. Where could he put his face?

He looked at Xu Damao in disbelief and said dissatisfiedly: "Xu Damao, why are you acting like a boss at such a young age?"

The implication is, Xu Damao is so young, what is there for him to compete with an old man?

Xu Damao naturally understood the meaning of Liu Haizhong's words, but he was determined to be the boss at this moment because he had his own plans.

He retorted, "Second Uncle, you are wrong to say that. Who says that young people cannot be uncles? I am just competing with you fairly. When the time comes, we will have the final say on who will be the uncle. What do you think?"

As soon as Xu Damao finished speaking, people in the yard began to whisper to each other.

Lou Xiao'e, who was standing next to Xu Damao, looked at Xu Damao with a smile, her eyes full of admiration.

She thinks that her son Damao is not only good at making money, but also very responsible, which is good in every way.

Seeing that the second uncle wanted to suppress Xu Damao, she was not happy and immediately stood up to support Xu Damao: "I support my Damao to compete with the first uncle. Now is a new era. We must keep pace with the times and not have those traditional old ideas. The competent ones will get the job!"

After saying that, Lou Xiao'e looked at Xu Damao affectionately again. She smiled, and two charming dimples appeared on her face.

She was born with a fair complexion, and this smile made many people in the courtyard stare at her in amazement. She was indeed a lady from a wealthy family, with a beautiful appearance.

Inspired by Lou Xiao'e, Xu Damao cleared his throat and said loudly: "My dear neighbors, you all know my ability. If I become a great master, I promise to make everyone in our courtyard vomit after watching movies, and we will be selected as a civilized courtyard every year!"

These words were very impressive, especially to the women and children, whose eyes suddenly lit up.

The crowd began to whisper, "Hey, this Xu Damao is the one who projects the movie, and what he said seems quite reliable."

"That's right. If you think about it this way, it's not impossible for Xu Damao to be a great uncle."

"When Yi Zhonghai was a big shot, he asked us to donate money. He only thought about himself and never thought about our compound..."

"You are right. I support Xu Damao being the boss..."

"I also support..."

"Support, support..."

80% of the people at the scene started to support Xu Damao. The women all smiled and said, "Da Mao, if you can let us watch movies every day, you deserve to be the uncle!" The children also cheered and said, "Okay, okay, we want to watch movies!"

Liu Haizhong saw that the situation was not good and suddenly became anxious. He quickly said, "Hey, don't listen to him. I have been the second uncle for so many years. I know the things in this courtyard best. How can he go beyond me!"

He thought to himself, "Why are all the people in the hospital so fence-sitters? Xu Damao is better than me except for being able to show movies. I am also a level 6 fitter. Am I proud of myself? Why are you so high-profile at such a young age?"

Yan Bugui also echoed and said, "Mr. Liu is right. He knows the affairs of the hospital best." But he was thinking, "I was given five dollars. I must contribute. Even if Liu Haizhong is not selected in the end, there is no reason for me to return the money I have received."

Thinking of this, Yan Bugui added: "Old Liu is better than Xu Damao in terms of both seniority and age. I think everyone understands this. I won't say more about this. My position is very firm. I support Old Liu to be the uncle."

When he said these words, his expression remained calm and his heart remained steady. After all, he felt that he was not lying.

Liu Haizhong saw Yan Bugui speaking for him and nodded in agreement.

It seems that the money should be spent when it is time to spend it, otherwise why would Yan Bugui support him?

Xu Damao saw that Liu Haizhong was anxious. As for Yan Bugui, he knew what was going on between them.

But choosing an uncle is not based on the opinions of one or two people, but on the choice of people in the hospital.

Even if Yan Bugui is the third uncle, he does not have the veto power. The first uncle will definitely be Xu Damao.

He looked at Liu Haizhong with disdain and said, "Liu Haizhong, you can't say that. You have been the second uncle for so many years, but has there been any change in this courtyard? Look at Yi Zhonghai. Although he got into trouble later, he was still able to keep the courtyard in order. Do you have this ability?"

Xu Damao's words hit the sore spot of Liu Haizhong directly, and Li Weiguo couldn't help but admire him secretly.

The person who speaks the most viciously and boldly in the courtyard is none other than Xu Damao.

When everyone heard this, they felt that what Xu Damao said made sense.

When Yi Zhonghai was around, Liu Haizhong was the second uncle, which shows that he really did not have the ability to be the eldest uncle.

Otherwise, Liu Haizhong can't always be outshined by Yi Zhonghai.

Liu Haizhong watched helplessly as everyone supported Xu Damao, his expression becoming increasingly uglier.

He never expected that things would turn out like this.

He secretly regretted in his heart, blaming himself for being careless. How happily the people in the yard laughed just now, how depressed he was now.
