Chapter 153 Dumbfounded
Chapter 153 Stupid
Donghai Railway Station, also known as the New Passenger Station, is located on the north bank of Suzhou River in Zhabei District. It was built in 1984 on the basis of the original East Railway Station.
In order to distinguish it from the original old railway station, it is called the new passenger station by the locals.
The south square of the new passenger station now looks very grand, especially the shopping malls, office buildings, hotels and other high-rise buildings surrounding the square. Many passengers immediately feel that the city that never sleeps is not a well-deserved reputation after leaving the station.
But the North Square behind the new passenger station, especially the large area of the old city extending from the North Square, is a different story.
As long as you leave the North Square and walk around, you will see many places surrounded by endless shantytowns.
And because the living conditions in shantytowns are complex, renovation or relocation is far from expected.
Not to mention now, even in more than ten years there will still be no improvement in many places, but will become more and more dilapidated.
In this large slum area, there are many people at the bottom struggling to survive.
These "urban villages" hidden in the shadows of high-rise buildings are the lost places of this international metropolis, and they are also the most unbearable places in this city.
In addition to the elderly, most of the people living in shantytowns are migrant workers or vendors who make a living by doing small businesses.
Of course, some of them are young local aborigines.
It's just that these people obviously have the skills and abilities, but they just live on the subsistence allowance and wait to die. They are the least enterprising kind.
The truly ambitious locals have long since moved out of the shantytowns through hard work.
Just like Zhou, the former richest man in Shanghai, who was arrested just two years ago, he was just a little gangster in the shanty town.
Only the natives who are just waiting to die will not be able to grasp the unique path to wealth and stay in slums such as shantytowns with all kinds of monsters and monsters.
Not far from the North Square of the new passenger station, there is Taiyangshan Road. This road was originally called Taiyang Temple Road, which was named after the "Sun Temple" here.
The Temple of the Sun was once a holy place of the White Lotus Sect during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It was a missionary dojo developed by Huang Tiandao, one of the important branches of the White Lotus Sect, in the magical city. It was dedicated to the ancestor of the Sun.
From before liberation to the present, the Taiyangshan Road area has always been a place where good and bad people are mixed, and is nicknamed the "gangster's cave" in Zhabei District.
In a small building in this "gangster's den", a fierce mahjong game was going on.
Mahjong, the national quintessence, has been deeply loved by people from all walks of life in Shanghai since the Republic of China.
In many film and television works, you can see that many bigwigs in the fashionable beaches of the Republic of China were very enthusiastic about it, making it one of the most popular entertainment activities.
Especially among the lower-class indigenous people, this is their favorite pastime.
After all, if you win today, I will win tomorrow, the money is all in one pot, and there won’t be much expense. The main thing is cost-effectiveness.
For many indigenous people who are just waiting to die, not playing mahjong every day can cost their lives.
The room to the east of the low-rise building was filled with smoke. It was obvious that the women playing mahjong were all heavy smokers.
"Four."
"Touch! I said Yanhong, be careful. If I touch you again, I will take care of all three families."
"Tch, Sister Du has been having sex recently. Are you afraid of her touching her two or three times? You can touch her ten times more without panicking."
"That's right. I've already started to smoke Zhonghua. Yanhong is getting bigger!"
"It's true! Yanhong, sisters, please show us how to make money. Don't make a fortune just by yourself!"
And Du Yanhong, who was sitting there calmly and calmly being praised by the three people, was none other than the silly old woman that her ex-husband asked his younger brother to find to frame Ma Liang.
She said with a proud look on her face: "I'm just making a little money now, and I might have a lot of income in a few days."
This silly old lady is still thinking about using the food poisoning incident to blackmail Ma Liang for a large sum of money.
"Yan Hong, then you must treat us. The restaurant will arrange one!"
"That's right, I have to go to the International Hotel to have a good meal. Yanhong, this small pomp is not a problem, right?"
Du Yanhong heard this and said very grandly: "The International Hotel doesn't matter. When my money comes, I can take you to the Bund to open a Western restaurant."
While she was handling the mahjong tiles, she was holding a cigarette in her mouth and pursed half of her lips to show off. She looked like the landlady in "Kung Fu".
"Haha, then we will wait. Don't be stingy when the time comes, Yanhong."
"How is it possible? Our Sister Du is not that kind of person. When has she ever been stingy?"
Several people complimented Du Yanhong again, which greatly satisfied the vanity of this silly old woman.
"When you arrive at the station, clear the gate, touch yourself, and you will be stabbed straight away!
One hundred per person, give me the money quickly.
Just say that I really deserve to have good fortune recently, and I can cheat with such good cards, so let me ask if any of you are still dissatisfied."
Du Yanhong had another big haircut, and now she was even more satisfied.
"Ah, no more fun, no more fun, Yan Hong, this is your third stab in the whole afternoon."
"It's just that I can't play mahjong. Sister Du, why are you so lucky?"
Du Yanhong smiled from ear to ear. She felt like she had hit the God of Wealth recently. How could she have such luck playing mahjong in the past?
A few people were arguing when her cell phone suddenly rang.
When she saw that the call was coming from a landline, Du Yanhong didn't dare to hang up directly for fear of delaying her business, so she quickly picked up the call.
"Du Yanhong, right? This is the JA District People's Court.
Our hospital has accepted the case of the reputation dispute between [Red Lips Chuan Chuan Xiang] Catering Co., Ltd. and you. We hereby inform you to bring your ID and come to the service hall of our hospital within three days to collect the response materials and court summons."
Du Yanhong was stunned when she held her mobile phone. What is this? Reputation infringement?
If she hadn't heard the words "Red Lips and Fragrance", she would have thought it was a scam call and would have scolded her right away.
She weakly confirmed: "Don't tell me it's a scam call, right?
I am obviously the victim! Why did they turn around and sue me? This is wrong!
Are you really the JA District People's Court, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"Whether it's a court or not, you can find out by calling 114 and checking our landline number.
I have informed you that you must come to collect the summons within three days, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences.
Let me remind you, you should find a lawyer quickly. The amount of compensation is one million. If you lose the lawsuit and can't afford the compensation, you won't be able to live with it."
After saying that, the court staff hung up the phone directly without even bothering to talk to her.
Du Yanhong really dialed 114 to check the number, and then she was completely dumbfounded. She didn't even notice the busy tone coming from her phone, and couldn't believe her ears at all!
Are you really suing me? Compensation for one million?
I haven't even started blackmailing them yet, so why did I sue my mother instead? Thinking about it, I feel that something is wrong.
No matter what went wrong in this matter, she couldn't handle it anyway, so she had to find the big brother behind it to solve it. Otherwise, if she really lost the lawsuit, she wouldn't be able to afford the compensation.
Du Yanhong thought quickly in her mind, how much money did I earn in total from this job? If I lose, I have to pay with my life!
No, she must not be this fool, she must let them come forward.
The silly old lady was so scared that she was not even in the mood to play mahjong. She rushed home as fast as she could, locked herself in the room and quietly dialed a number.
"Hey, Da Mao, you're a bitch, you're so fucked up, why did [Red Lips and Chuan Chuan Xiang] go to court and sue me?
The court told me to go get a summons and sue me for some kind of reputation infringement, claiming one million yuan.
Alas, I’m telling you, I don’t have the ability to deal with this, and you must be responsible for handling it, otherwise I will risk my life and expose all the truth.”
"What the hell? Summons? Sue you?" Da Mao was also dumbfounded. At first he really thought he had heard something wrong.
Da Mao is just a nickname, his real name is Mao Xinghua, he is one of the younger brothers of his ex-husband, and he is personally responsible for dealing with Du Yanhong.
Du Yanhong shouted anxiously: "I don't care, Ming Chaonong must go to the court with me to collect the summons."
"Don't worry, wait until I go to inquire about it." Mao Xinghua hurriedly comforted him.
He was also a little panicked. After all, this thing was so strange. Why did a restaurant with food poisoning sue the victim? How could there be such an unreasonable thing in the world?
Mao Xinghua had no idea how stupid his pig teammates were.
If the evidence hadn't been so hard, the court's work progress wouldn't have been so efficient. Of course, this was also due to the involvement of Attorney Feng.
The relationship between barristers and the court is already very delicate, and this little bit of face is not something that can be manipulated.
After hanging up Du Yanhong's phone, Mao Xinghua quickly asked his friends to find connections and went to the JA District People's Court to find out what happened.
More than two hours later, after receiving replies from several friends, I finally figured out the whole story.
Mao Xinghua was stupid again. [Red Lips Chuan Chuan Chuan Xiang] really sued Du Yanhong and indeed claimed compensation for one million.
According to information obtained by a friend from an insider in the court, the other party’s attorney is also a well-known lawyer in Shanghai, and the evidence is said to be quite strong.
At this time, he finally panicked and ran to report to his boss without even bothering to eat dinner.
When Mao Xinghua found Su Mingyuan, his good brother Zhou Yongqiang was holding a newspaper and dejectedly saying something to his former husband.
