Chapter 196 Coercing favors
"Shazhu, be quiet." Yan Bugui couldn't bear it any longer and decided to solve the chicken problem first.

"Hey, Second Uncle, if you say that, how can I not be honest? Xu Damao's chicken was lost, and he asked me to cooperate, and I cooperated. Now the facts prove that I was wronged. If it were you, would you let it go without giving an explanation?" He Yuzhu said with a sneer.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's talk about other things after we deal with Xu Damao's chicken." Yan Bugui said.

"No, Second Uncle, I don't like what you said. His chicken ran away on its own, and we don't know when it ran away. That's his own business and has nothing to do with any of us. So he can go and find the chicken by himself. But since he has wronged me, we have to talk it out. Otherwise, if Xu Damao doesn't give an explanation, you two accomplices will have to give an explanation." He Yuzhu was not afraid of Yan Bugui and the other guy.

"Shazhu, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you be an accomplice?" Liu Haizhong was unhappy.

"In the beginning, it was you three who suspected me of stealing the chicken. So, if Xu Damao doesn't give an explanation, then none of you three can escape. I'm going to the street office to ask for an explanation, but even the person in charge of the street office can't do it." He Yuzhu said with a sneer.

"Xu Damao, this incident was caused by you. Hurry up and apologize to Shazhu." Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Damao and said.

"I..." Xu Damao was speechless. How could such a good thing turn out like this?

"I'm sorry, Shazhu, I wronged you." Although Xu Damao was unwilling, he knew that if he didn't apologize at this time, he would definitely not be able to get over this matter, so he chose to apologize obediently.

"Is an apology enough? You should at least give some financial compensation, right?" He Yuzhu said.

"Shazhu, don't go too far..." Xu Damao pointed at He Yuzhu and said.

"How is that too much? Oh, you can frame me and want me to accompany you with a chicken, and now I want some compensation? Everyone knows about this false accusation. Why don't we call the police?" He Yuzhu said righteously.

"Xu Damao, give Sha Zhu fifty cents and this matter will be over. Let's find your chicken quickly. Everyone is waiting to go home and sleep." Liu Haizhong said impatiently.

"I……"

Having such a bad teammate, Xu Damao was speechless, but he had no choice but to give He Yuzhu fifty cents.

"Okay, I won't participate. I'll go home now. You guys take your time looking for it." He Yuzhu said proudly while holding the money.

"Okay, okay, everyone is fine. Help Xu Damao find a chicken. Let's all go." Yan Bugui said helplessly.

At this point, there was no need for everyone to continue to gather around, so everyone prepared to go home.

However, when the people in the front yard just returned to the front yard, they saw Yan Jiefang happily returning to the yard with a chicken in his hand.

Yan Jiefang had gone out to have lunch with his fellow workers today, so he came back late.

"Dad, look, what is this?" Yan Jiefang said proudly, holding up the chicken in his hand.

"Where did you get this chicken?" Yan Bugui asked.

"I found it. I didn't expect to have such a good thing happen to me. When I just arrived at the entrance of the alley, I saw a chicken. No one wanted it. It's a bargain for us. Let's keep it today and let me buy it and stew it tomorrow. It will definitely taste good."

Yan Jiefang had an expression as if we had made a big profit, and proudly introduced the origin of this chicken.

"Hey, the chicken has been found." Yang Zhenyu was immediately happy.

After a long time of searching for the chicken, not only did it run away, but He Yuzhu also extorted fifty cents from it. "Uncle, this is my chicken," Xu Damao said, pointing at the chicken in Yan Jiefang's hand.

"What do you mean your chicken? I picked it up. Are you, Xu Damao, crazy about the chicken?" Yan Jiefang said as he hid the chicken behind him.

"Second uncle, what do you say?" Xu Damao looked at Yan Bugui.

"Xu Damao, you see that the chicken was found for you, shouldn't you show some appreciation? After all, if it wasn't for the second brother who helped you find it, who knows who would have taken it away later, and you would then get nothing." Yan Bugui said.

Yan Bugui is an old gangster and he originally wanted to take advantage. He would definitely not let go of the opportunity at this time, so naturally he wanted to get some benefits from Xu Damao.

"Uncle, if that's what you mean, then I don't want this chicken anymore. I'm going to go to the street tomorrow to ask for an explanation."

"Neighbors are helping out, and they are asking for benefits. Only your family can do this."

Xu Damao was already angry, and now Yan Bugui was adding fuel to the fire. Wasn't this just looking for trouble?
"Xu Damao, what nonsense are you talking about here? Others helped you find the chicken, shouldn't you thank them?" Yan Bugui glared at Xu Damao and said.

"No, I've never seen anyone repaying a favor. I don't want this chicken anymore. You can do whatever you want. I'll go to the street office tomorrow and let them see what kind of human nature the managers they elected are." Xu Damao said, waving his hands repeatedly.

"Jiefang, return the chicken to Xu Damao, and then go home." Liu Haizhong said with a dark face.

"Why? I picked it up, so how does it become Xu Damao's? I'm going to make soup with this chicken tomorrow." Yan Jiefang said while holding the chicken.

"Second brother, return the chicken to Xu Damao. This is the chicken that Xu Damao lost." Yan Bugui said helplessly.

At the critical moment, Yan Bugui was still able to distinguish clearly what should be occupied and what should not be occupied. If the street knew this, he would lose his position as the manager, and it would not be so easy to take advantage in the future.

"Xu Damao, take a close look and see if this chicken is yours. If it is, you can take it back." Yan Bugui said as he handed the chicken to Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was not vague and started to check carefully immediately.

"It's mine. Look at this leg. There's a mark here." Xu Damao said, pointing to the mark on one of the chicken's legs.

In fact, all hens look similar, it’s just a matter of breed, so many times they are marked to prevent them from running away and being lost.

Especially in a large compound like this, not every household raises chickens, but there are quite a few who do, so in order to avoid being unable to tell whose chickens belong to whom, they need to be marked.

"Okay, if there's nothing else, everyone go back and rest. We have to go to work tomorrow." Liu Haizhong said with his hands behind his back.

Today's incident is somewhat unprofitable for Liu Haizhong and others.

From Liu Haizhong's point of view, not only did his prestige fail to increase today, but he almost failed. His prestige will be affected to some extent.

As for Xu Damao, he just lost fifty cents for nothing. Although it was not much, he was unwilling to accept it.

When there was nothing more exciting to watch, Yang Zhenyu went home. There was endless excitement in this compound, and you never knew there would be another one at any time.
