Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

Zhao Shanhe smiled slightly. He had expected what Uncle Deng San said. After all, no matter which black market controller he met, he would lower the price for the seller.

After all, everyone is here to make money, there's nothing shameful about that.

"Third Master, I have prepared samples of these things. How about I go get them for you to take a look? The place where I keep the things is not too far away, it's on Guozijian Street."

Of course, Uncle Deng San was more than happy to do so. He also hoped to make this deal. However, it would cost a lot to control so many black markets. Without business, how could he live a carefree life?

"Brother Zhao, please come back soon. I'll wait for you here. Do you want to send a few people to go with you? You have a lot of things. I'm afraid it's not easy for one person to carry them all."

Zhao Shanhe knew that the other party was also guarding against him. What if Zhao Shanhe came to take advantage of him?

He was also afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings, so he nodded and agreed.

"That's great. I was just wondering how I was going to get a bunch of stuff over here."

With the two people who had led the way for him and the three big men in the yard, the six of them left Jianchang Hutong and walked a short distance on Guozijian Street before seeing the entrance to an alley. Zhao Shanhe asked them to wait for a moment while he moved the things out bit by bit.

Although the few people who followed were not very happy, before they came out, Uncle Deng San told them to listen to Zhao Shanhe's orders, so they could only wait at the entrance of the alley.

Fortunately, Zhao Shanhe was very fast. To put it bluntly, he was just taking out some samples from the small world. In less than two minutes, he took out some rabbits and pheasants. After another two minutes, he took out a cloth bag of oranges, apples, and pears. It took him only more than ten minutes to prepare everything, just like a mouse moving house.

Fortunately, there were many people, otherwise we would not be able to get it. By the time we returned to Uncle Deng's yard, the tea this person had drunk might not have cooled down yet.

"Third Master, I have accomplished your mission. These are samples. Please have a look."

If it was antiques, calligraphy and paintings, he might know a little about it, but when it came to wild game and the like, he really didn't know much. Fortunately, there was no shortage of professionals in the black market, and several people like the manager walked up to check one by one, and then said to Uncle Deng San.

"Third Master, they are all first-class goods, especially the oranges and apples. Such quality has never been seen in the city."

Uncle Deng Sanye became even happier after hearing this. The better the quality of something, the more valuable it is. For example, those high-quality fruits could be supplied to the people behind him for their exclusive enjoyment. In this way, his position in the city would be more stable, and his life would naturally be better in the future.

"Brother Zhao, now that we have checked everything, we can talk about the price."

Zhao Shanhe and Deng Sanye did not ask for a high price. He still wanted to have a long-term transaction. Rabbits, pheasants, and native chickens were all sold at one yuan per pound. The prices of other things were similar to those of pigeons. Only the price of fruits was the most difficult to determine. After all, these things were always rare.

Finally, the two agreed to trade yellow croaker for other goods and antique paintings and calligraphy for fruits, so that everyone could make a fortune.

After agreeing on the price, it's time to talk about the delivery location. Zhao Shanhe is not afraid that Mr. Deng San will blackmail him. After all, the other party is a well-known figure in the city.

"Third Master, you gave me face on the price, so I will definitely pay for it. You have the final say on the delivery location. Just tell me where to ship it."

Uncle Deng Sanye stretched out his hand and scratched his gray hair, thinking about where to transport these things. It couldn't be too far because there were too many things and it would be troublesome to transport them back and forth. The only place that was close was No. 143 Middle School (now Guozijian Middle School) south of Guozijian.

There happened to be a large open space there, and it was dark at night so basically no one went there. It was also less than 700 meters away from the north entrance of Jianchang Hutong, so it couldn't be more suitable.

"Brother Zhao, you know No. 143 Middle School, right? It's just south of the Imperial College. You can deliver the goods to the open space on the north side of the school, and we will deliver them there."

As soon as Zhao Shanhe thought about it, he knew what place Mr. Deng Sanye was talking about. It would be the playground of Guozijian Middle School in the future, and there would also be a building there, but it had not been built yet.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, Third Master. Tomorrow night at 12 o'clock, we'll pay you and deliver you the goods."

After Zhao Shanhe left the black market, he took out his bicycle from the small world and rode all the way back to the courtyard. When he got home and reviewed the situation, he realized that he was still too clumsy. Fortunately, he met the wealthy Mr. Deng Sanye. If he had met other black market controllers, things would have been unpredictable.

Judging from the fact that more than 10 sturdy men were carrying firearms, these black market guys were not simple people. He even thought that they were the same as Qiao Laoliu. He was really ignorant of his own limitations.

The next day, he borrowed a cart from his neighbor Lao Wang again, rode out of Andingmen and pretended to go to the countryside to purchase goods. He strolled outside the city and it was past 10 o'clock when he took out the dead wild boar from the small world, and also took out a grown-up wild boar, but this was only alive.

It was lunchtime when he arrived at the factory on his cart. The guard on duty at the gate saw people hustling on his cart and thought they were people.

Someone who had a good relationship with him came over and talked to him in a funny way.

"Shanhe, why did you bring someone back with you when you went to the countryside to purchase goods? Did you bring back someone's young wife?"

Zhao Shanhe didn't play any tricks with them and lifted the canvas covering the wild boar.

"Brothers, take a closer look at what this is. You must have seen a dead wild boar, but few of you have seen a live one, right?"

Now even the guards on duty came to watch the fun. It was just as Zhao Shanhe said, if you meet a live wild boar in the mountains, it will be a life-and-death fight. How many people have seen that?

Captain Shen Li had just come back from getting his lunch. When he saw everyone gathered at the door while holding his lunch box, he came over to take a look. After seeing this, he gave Zhao Shanhe a thumbs up.

"Shanhe, you are awesome. I have admired you. I have only seen a live wild boar like this once when our company was fighting bandits. I still remember its ferocious look.

If there weren't so many of us there, there might have been a few people injured by wild boars.

Okay, everyone just take a look, the weather is too hot, the meat won’t last long, Shanhe, you should also go and store it.”

Zhao Shanhe riding the cart immediately became a sight in the factory. After all, it was lunch time, and many employees coming and going saw the two wild boars.

"Fuck, wild boar! Can we eat meat these two days?"

"What are you thinking? There are only two of them. With so many people in our factory, I guess we can only drink some meat soup."

"It's OK to have soup, at least with a little oil. I've heard from others that wild boar meat is more delicious than black-skinned pork."

When we arrived at the cold storage door, the warehouse manager had been waiting for a long time. This was also because some impatient employees had come to inform us of the situation.

The warehouse manager was also delighted when he saw him coming.

"Brother, being a cadre is different now. You are the first one in our factory's purchasing department to bring back two wild boars."
