The day Zhang Yuanmin and Li Baoyu parted ways at the village entrance, Zhang Yuanmin went straight to the Li Family's home.
As he entered the Li Family Courtyard, he saw Li Dayong climbing over the wall, trying to get to Zhao Jun's family home.
Zhang Yuanmin thought, 'If Li Dayong leaves, who am I going to get dynamite from? I can't let him get away.'
At that thought, Zhang Yuanmin let out a great yell, "Uncle Li!"
The shout made Li Dayong jump, and the leg he had just hooked over the wall slipped right off.
Li Dayong glanced toward the gate and saw it was Zhang Yuanmin. Annoyed, he asked, "Big Pants, what do you want?"
Zhang Yuanmin trotted over to Li Dayong and said, "Uncle Li, I need to talk to you about something."
Ordinarily, Li Dayong might not have given him the time of day. But he had recently heard that Zhang Yuanmin was getting close with the Zhao Family, so he asked patiently, "What is it? Go on."
