Break out of the courtyard

Chapter 75 Lou Bancheng panicked (please subscribe 3)

"200?" Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e strangely, thinking that your family didn't know how to bully Zhang Xiaosan last time, so just give him two pieces of used cloth.

200 yuan, do you think Zhang Xiaosan has never seen the money?

Lou Xiao'e said proudly: "Is 200 yuan enough for the boy in the alley to paint the mural?"

"Haha!" Xu Damao shook his head and walked towards the courtyard.

"Xu Damao, what do you mean by sneering?" Lou Xiao'e, wearing a cheongsam and a small coat, hurriedly chased after him.

"Why am I laughing, haha..." Xu Damao kept walking, "That boy is a master of fishing. Every time he sells fish to the steel rolling mill, his income is not less than 100 yuan. He can sell it twice a day, but he has not sold it recently. Yes, you said why?"

Zhang Heping looked at Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e walking away, turned around and called a tricycle, ran to find Huang Xuemin for a meal, and went to Uncle Zhuang's place to maintain his favor.

Xu Damao knew about his income from selling fish and reminded Zhang Heping that if Xu Damao specifically inquired about it, it would be safe to say that it would only be known to a small area.

If it spread to everyone in the steel rolling mill, it would be a bit too ostentatious.

As for painting murals for Lou Bancheng... Haha!

After coming out of Uncle Zhuang's place, Zhang Heping was led by Huang Lao San Huang Wenxuan to find Zhao Jianguo, the sixth lad of the old company commander's family.

Then he looked around for trees with the kitchen knife that Huang Wenxuan had secretly taken out, and cut two Y-shaped branches for them. Then he spent 1 cent at a car repair stall and made two slingshots.

In the end, the three of them stayed outside to hunt birds until after 6 p.m., and they made an appointment to go hunting outside the city tomorrow morning before they parted ways.

By the time Zhang Heping arrived home, it was almost 8 pm, but Xu Damao and his wife hadn't left yet. They were sitting on the small coffee table under the north window chatting.

Zhang Heping seemed to have listened carefully to their purpose, then shook his head, "Oil painting? No! I haven't studied it before. I only know how to sculpt. Your family is not..."

"Do you want to paint for 2000 yuan?" Lou Xiao'e interrupted Zhang Heping. Seeing Zhang Heping turn around and walk towards the house, Lou Xiao'e hurriedly shouted:

"5000!"

There's something wrong with the Lou family!

Not only Zhang Heping thought so, but even Xu Damao found something was wrong. This price increase method was too outrageous.

"1 million!"

……

"Millions! Don't ever draw! Okay! What a temper!" Lou Bancheng slapped the armrests of the sofa with both hands, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said to Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e gloomily:

"You go and rest first. I will go with you again tomorrow morning. I don't believe there are people in this world who are not moved by money!"

……

The next day, morning!

As soon as Zhang Heping came back from hunting birds, he found two groups of people waiting for him at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Zhang Heping, let's go hunting. My brother and the others are still waiting outside the alley!" Zhao Laoliu and Zhao Jianguo held the slingshot and said excitedly: "Let them see the power of our slingshot today!"

"Wait for me, I'll push the bike!"

Zhang Heping responded, ran into the yard, handed the bird he just shot to his mother, Ma Xiuzhen, and asked her to pluck it, cut it into cubes, and feed it to Laifu.

Then, Zhang Heping leaned over and whispered about how he and the old company commander's youngest son went hunting, and that they couldn't accept anything from Xu Damao and the others.

Then, Zhang Heping pushed the bicycle, ignoring Xu Damao's obstruction and Lou Bancheng who was smiling, and pedaled the bicycle. After Zhao Laoliu jumped on the back seat of the bicycle, Zhang Heping quickly rode out of the alley.

Lou Bancheng has changed his target. As long as Zhang Heping's parents accept the money, are they still afraid that the kid won't agree?

Especially, when he learned that the shoe repair stall and sewing stall at the door belonged to the Zhang family, he became even more confident in his ability to make money!

"Let's go! Let's go!" The little fat Zhao Jianguo was in the back seat, waving his left slingshot at a group of military college courtyard boys waiting at the entrance of the alley, "Today I want to show you what it means to shoot without missing a beat!"

"Zhao Laoliu, don't be arrogant!" A bicycle whizzed past.

"A broken slingshot, let's see how proud you are!" Another bicycle rushed past.

"Old rule, the last one to arrive, pick up the prey!" With this shout, Zhang Heping's bicycle fell behind.

"Do it!" Zhao Laoliu raised his slingshot and fired a shot of air at the person in front to vent his dissatisfaction. He was ready to be the last one to arrive and then carry the prey.

"Where to go?" Zhang Heping followed the group of big courtyard boys leisurely. “The old place is still the farmyard where the cars are kept.”

"Sit tight!" Zhang Heping shouted and suddenly turned into the alley on the left.

Zhao Jianguo was almost thrown out. He hugged the seat cushion with both hands, looked at the strange scene around him, and asked in confusion: "Heping, where are you taking me?"

"Take a shortcut!"

After a while, Zhang Heping and Zhao Jianguo's bicycles met the group of people in the military compound again.

However, Zhang Heping and the others are on the west bank of the west moat, and the others are on the east bank. If they want to come over, they have to go to the bridge in front to turn around and come back in a big circle.

"Tell them to hurry up, hehe!"

Zhang Heping reminded him with a bad smile. After Zhao Jianguo excitedly mocked the big courtyard boys, Zhang Heping went straight to the farmyard in the west.

Before, Zhang Heping looked at the map of the capital for more than ten minutes at the steel rolling mill transportation team in order to transfer Comrade Zhang to another hospital, so he was still very familiar with the roads in the city.

However, after arriving outside the city, there was only one dirt road leading to the ravine in the suburbs, and the next thing to do was to struggle with foot strength.

In order to maintain his strength when entering the mountain, Zhang Heping did not exert his full strength. After letting eight bicycles pass him, he kept pace with Huang Wenyu and Huang Wenxuan, and arrived at a farmhouse on the roadside.

After locking the bicycle, Zhang Heping picked up pebbles on the roadside for a while before the last two bicycles arrived.

Counting Zhang Heping, there were a total of 23 people, divided into two teams. Zhang Heping followed Zhao Laoliu and his fifth brother, as well as the two Huang brothers and others.

There is also an old rule: the team that hunts the least will pay for cigarettes and alcohol when they go back to have a barbecue.

Zhang Heping came here to become familiar with him. God knows whether these people will become soldiers or politicians in the future. Instead of remembering them, it is better to let them remember themselves.

Therefore, after entering the forest, Zhang Heping showed off his master-level hunting and tracking skills while reading a book out of boredom.

The first ones to suffer were a few mountain rats, one at a time.

Then there are small animals such as squirrels and birds.

Since Zhao Jianguo didn't need to take the prey today, the sixth lao took over the hunting dog's job and diligently threw the prey one by one to the little kid named Lin Laosi so that he could take it.

Unfortunately, after 12 o'clock at noon, there were only four rabbits that Zhang Heping could like. I don't know if it was because this mountain forest was often visited by people, but not even a wild boar footprint was seen.

When we returned to the farmyard, people from the other team had been waiting there for a long time. They said that two newcomers had sprained their feet, so they only caught one rabbit.

After returning home, Zhang Heping followed them to the military compound, mixed two bottles of Arctic Ocean soda to drink, and a few skewers of barbecue. After listening to their bragging for a while, Zhang Heping went home.

It’s not easy to get into this circle!

This was the conclusion Zhang Heping came to on the way back.

However, he didn't plan to blend in, he just wanted to get familiar with each other, mainly to establish a good relationship with the second, third, and sixth children of the Huang family.

In the future, if we really need to use other disciples from the Military Courtyard, we can just use Zhao Laoliu and the others as intermediaries.

After returning home, Zhang Heping took off his green military uniform that was scratched by branches and asked his mother, Ma Xiuzhen, what Xu Damao and his group had done this morning.

"Cousin, think about it, how can you sew up the tear for me so that it looks good!" Zhang Heping handed the torn clothes to Ma Lili at the sewing machine, and then walked out with his mother.

"That Lou Xiao'e's father handed me a box of money this morning, saying it contained 5 yuan, but I didn't dare to ask for it!" Ma Xiuzhen said, looking at her son solemnly, "Xiaosan, anything illegal is worth ten million yuan." Don’t do it! No matter how much money you have, it won’t be as safe as yours!”

"Mom, don't worry! As long as you don't take anything from the Lou family, I don't have to do anything."

Through the increase in the amount of paintings purchased this time, Zhang Heping set a new level of crisis faced by the Lou family.

Zhang Heping speculated that the guests who were angry because Lou Bancheng did not understand the oil painting "Flying to Seize Luding Bridge" might go to Lou's house to see the painting!

Because today is May 5th.
