Me! The dark horse of the Siheyuan, my wife Chen Xueru
Chapter 41: Silence
As capital, the Jia family took out five kilograms of flour and exchanged it in the yard for some matches, kerosene lamps, cloth coupons, coal coupons and other things that were not available in the countryside. They exchanged them for a large bag and took it back to the mother's home.
In the evening, Xu Huizhen came with a look of embarrassment, and brought Cai Quanwu with her.
After the Chinese New Year this year, Cai Quanwu moved there and lived with Xu Huizhen. They got married and Cai Quanwu rarely came to the Siheyuan anymore.
"Huizhen is here, come in and sit down!" Chen Xueru stood up.
He glanced at Xu Huizhen and couldn't help but frowned: "Huizhen, why are you in such a mess?"
"Wuwuwu, Xueru, I'm here to beg you!" Xu Huizhen cried, while Cai Quanwu on the side said nothing.
"Don't cry, don't cry! Tell me first, what happened?" Chen Xueru felt sorry for her best friend. She had never seen her so embarrassed before.
Xu Huizhen cried, "Xueru, I know you have many children, and I don't want to cause trouble for you, but I'm really hungry. Quanwu and I haven't eaten for two days."
"Your family runs a restaurant, and you still starve!" Yang Muzi was speechless.
Cai Quanwu complained, "Huizhen doesn't know how to save food." Cai Quanwu's words made Yang Muzi understand what was going on.
Xu Huizhen used to be rich and used to spending lavishly, so she naturally had no habit of saving food. When the ration of food was finished, she would naturally go hungry.
Chen Xueru: "Isn't there food in the tavern? Don't you think you can get anything?"
Xu Huizhen gritted her teeth and said, "It's all that Fan Jinyou's fault. He guards us like thieves, watching us every day. He kicks us out as soon as work is over and then closes the store. We don't stand a chance."
"Okay, stop talking, Xueru! Take out the leftovers from the cupboard and let them eat some first."
“Hey, hey, hey…” Chen Xueru brought the things to the table one by one.
Half a pot of braised pork, a half-eaten chicken, four hard-boiled eggs, and five or six steamed buns.
Damn it!
Xu Hui was really dumbfounded.
You call this leftovers? "Xueru, I'm welcome!" "Quanwu, you can eat it too!" "Hey hey hey!" The two of them ate with relish.
Xu Huizhen picked up a large chicken drumstick and ate it without any image. Cai Quanwu ate braised pork with steamed buns, his mouth full of oil.
In a short while, everything on the table was eaten up by them.
Yang Muzi was stunned when he saw this. My goodness, these two people are really hungry. After eating and drinking, Xu Hui really became energetic.
Looking at the rosy-faced Chen Xueru and then at the chubby white children, Xu Huizhen was very surprised.
It can be seen that Yang Muzi's family has no shortage of food.
In this age when everyone was starving, Yang Muzi's family had no shortage of food and drink.
This is simply unbelievable. "Xueru, Muzi, why are you eating again?"
Xu Huizhen originally thought that Xueru might have a worse life than hers with four children.
If she wasn't really hungry, she wouldn't have come to Chen Xueru for help. Yang Muzi said disdainfully: "Didn't I tell you earlier to save some food?"
"Ouch!" Xu Huizhen slapped her head and wished she could strangle herself to death.
At the beginning, Yang Muzi reminded her that things would be difficult in the near future and asked her to store some food.
At that time, she was so focused on her business that she forgot about it.
I never expected that the difficulty Yang Muzi described would be so difficult.
Xu Huizhen regretted it so much that her intestines turned green. If she had listened to Yang Muzi, it would have been great to store some food.
Now I have money but can't spend it. "Muzi, can you sell me some of your food? Please..."
Yang Muzi frowned: "I don't have much food, I can only give you a thousand kilograms of flour at most."
He had one million kilograms of grain, and he could sell even ten thousand kilograms to Xu Huizhen.
However, if Xu Huizhen becomes dependent on him, it will be bad. Giving her less food will also make her feel a little threatened.
—Thousand Jin!
Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu's eyes were about to fall to the ground.
In this day and age, being able to produce a thousand kilograms of grain is definitely a super rich man. "Shh~~~This matter must be kept secret." "Understood, understood!"
Yang Muzi said, "It's too late today. Let Quan Wu ride a tricycle to the courtyard on Gulou East Street to pick it up at midnight tomorrow."
"Thank you, Muzi. You are my savior! Don't worry, I will never treat you unfairly and give you double the price."
Xu Huizhen was very happy.
Their behavior is also considered as speculation, so it cannot be carried out during the day and can only be done at night.
"By the way, Muzi, the grain can be stored, but where does your family's meat come from?" Xu Huizhen asked again.
“It’s like this…”
Chen Xueru briefly talked about how Yang Muzi got the unplanned supplies by sneaking around the streets.
"Xue Ru, your man is amazing. You are so blessed." Xu Hui was so envious.
Yang Muzi is so amazing, he is simply a fighting hexagonal man. Even in such a difficult time, he is still doing well and eating a lot of delicious food every day, which is something that ordinary people dare not even think about.
The next night, Cai Quanwu rode a human-powered tricycle and made two trips to finish the work.
When Yang Muzi returned to the courtyard, it was already three or four in the morning.
The door of the courtyard was closed. If you wanted to go back now, you would have to climb over the wall, unless someone happened to come out to use the toilet.
Just as I was about to climb over the wall, an old country man pushing a cart came towards me stealthily in the distance.
When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard and saw that there was no one around, the old man mustered up the courage to shout.
"Is there anyone in the toilet? The dung collector is here."
Yang Muzi took a look and saw that the old man's car was full of things, including sweet potatoes, radishes, cabbages and so on.
"The speculators are here." Yang Muzi nodded secretly and immediately understood what was going on.
This old man must be from the countryside and wants to make a deal with the people in the yard.
And his words: "Is there anyone in the toilet? The night soil man is here" must have been a secret signal to the people in the yard.
"Who is it, Uncle San?" Yang Muzi was a little curious. After a while, the door opened.
Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu came out. It turned out to be them.
Yang Muzi smiled. Qin Huairu's family was from the countryside, and she was the only one who could connect with rural people.
"Dad, you're here!"
"My daughter, your father is so tired." Qin Huairu went to greet him happily.
Oh my god, it was him, Qin Huairu's father Qin Ergou. As soon as the old man spoke, Yang Muzi felt familiar. He had been engaged to Qin Huairu before, so he naturally knew Qin Huairu's father.
It was too dark at night, so I couldn't see clearly.
Yang Muzi had met Qin Huairu's father in his previous life, and although he had never met him, he knew him very well.
This old guy is a snob. When he heard that Qin Huairu had found Jia Dongxu, who was better, he immediately brought Qin Huairu to cancel the engagement in person.
My predecessor hated this former father-in-law to the core.
Since he has fallen into his hands, Yang Muzi will certainly not let this old guy get away with it.
If the inspection team finds out about this speculation, this old man will be in big trouble.
"Hello, Uncle Qin."
"Okay, okay, good boy!" Jia Dongxu greeted Qin Ergou.
"Dad, I'll go get you some water. Dongxu, move the things back home." Soon, a cart of things was moved to Jia Dongxu's home. Jia Dongxu took out a bag of things and handed them to Qin Ergou.
Inside there were some tickets for various supplies, as well as some things that were not available in rural areas.
"Dongxu, Huairu, the village will slaughter pigs in three days. Talk to the people in your courtyard to see how much pork you can get. Count it tomorrow. Once you're done, ask Huairu to go home and tell me. I'll deliver it to you in the evening of three days. I'll come early, so I can be there at midnight."
"Really? That's great! What's the deal this time?" Qin Huairu asked in surprise.
Everyone in the yard is so greedy, pork must be selling well.
Qin Ergou: "I want money this time, one yuan per pound, you should prepare the money in advance."
"I understand, Dad. Be careful on the road." "Let's go, girl."
Qin Ergou pushed the cart away. "Three days later!"
Yang Muzi's eyes flashed. When Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu went back, Yang Muzi climbed over the wall into the yard and quietly returned home.
the next day.
The Jia family started selling vegetables in the yard, and people kept running towards the Jia family at night.
After all the items were sold, Qin Huairu counted the money and found that she had made a total of 20 kilograms of flour.
In addition, there were many people who wanted pork, because Qin Huairu wanted money, and as a city dweller, every family had some money.
Everyone is willing to spend some money to eat pork, even the stingy Uncle San asked for a pound of meat.
The people in the yard ordered a total of 105 kilograms, and Qin Huairu charged yuan. The price she gave to the people in the yard was yuan, making cents on every kilogram.
"Yes, yes, Huairu, once the pork is sold, we can earn thirty-five yuan, which is more than my monthly salary."
"Yes, yes, our Huairu is so capable."
"Huai Ru, ask your father to send us five more kilograms, and we'll buy five kilograms as well. We haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"Okay! Five pounds of meat is nothing." "Hahahaha..."
The Jia family was so happy that they could get supplies beyond the plan.
Even more powerful than Yang Muzi.
Yang Muzi bought meat at a high price, so not only did they not have to spend any money, they could also make money.
If this business is successful, the Jia family will be prosperous in no time, and they can eat meat every day like Yang Muzi.
"Great! Finally we have some meat to eat."
"Huai Ru is so amazing. Everyone in our hospital is benefiting from her." "Just wait, the meat will be here tonight!"
When the appointed day arrived, which happened to be Saturday, everyone in the yard was looking forward to eating meat.
Jia Dongxu told everyone except Yang Muzi's family.
At noon, Yang Muzi came back carrying a bird cage and an old hen, preparing to make chicken soup for the children.
They have many children, and they are all growing up. Stewing old hen soup for the children is better than anything else. "Damn it." "Eat chicken again!"
"Why don't you eat him to death!"
Seeing Yang Muzi bring back the old hen, resentment suddenly spread in the yard. A few days ago, people ate too much meat rolls and no one had meat to eat.
Everyone is hungry, so of course they want to eat meat. Qin Huairu's food will arrive at midnight tonight, and then everyone can eat meat. However, distant water cannot quench nearby fire.
"Yang Muzi, where did you get the chicken!!!"
Passing by the middle courtyard, Jia Dongxu stopped him and questioned him. "I picked it up, what do you care about me?" Yang Muzi smiled and said, "If you have the guts, you can eat meat too."
