Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

This incident caused quite a stir in the steel rolling mill. Director Yang and Li Huaide were furious about it and scolded Old Wu. After being scolded by his leader, Old Wu also scolded all the purchasing staff under him, warning them not to take on a job that they don't have the skills to do, and not to think that they can do it just because Lin is more capable. Going into the mountains to hunt is no joke, and not everyone can go hunting in the mountains.

This dispelled the unrealistic ideas of some other buyers who also wanted to learn from Lin Geng, but it made them even more envious and jealous of Lin Geng.

But they still didn't know that Lin Geng had a secret deal with Li Huaide. If they added in the things that Lin Geng got for Li Huaide, they would probably be furious on the spot.

Because Lin Geng now has to provide Li Huaide with a batch of fresh vegetables every week. The price of these fresh vegetables is higher than that of meat. They are absolutely rare goods. He can earn hundreds of yuan by just giving Li Huaide a few dozen kilograms. Now Lin Geng can earn seven or eight hundred yuan every month just from Li Huaide. Together with the meat he gets for the factory, Lin Geng's net income has easily exceeded one thousand yuan per month.

A salary of one thousand yuan is nothing in later generations, but in the early 1960s, it was an astronomical figure, absolutely the highest income among high incomes.

But this is not Lin Geng's final income. Lin Geng also has to provide Liu Guangtian with hundreds of kilograms of meat every month, as well as another income. Next, as the domestic pigs, wild boars and wild sheep in the small world enter their breeding period, the output of meat in his small world will take another big step forward, and the shipment volume is estimated to catch up with that of a small meat processing plant.

When Lin Geng returned to the courtyard, Yan Bugui saw at a glance that there was half a pig of wild boar meat on Lin Geng's tricycle, and it also had a thick layer of fat, which was almost as good as domestic pork. Yan Bugui's eyes were wide open at once.

"Xiao Lin, did you kill another big wild boar? How come there is so much meat left?" Yan Bugui trembled as he spoke. Looking at the large piece of wild boar meat in the tricycle, tears of excitement flowed from the corners of his mouth without him realizing it.

Lin Geng sighed and said, "Alas! It's because you neighbors have been busy all year long, but in the end you can't buy much meat to improve your life during the New Year, so I specially left this meat for you!

Don't say I'm unwilling to help the neighbors in the yard. I'll distribute the meat later. Each family will get two pounds of meat. The market price is 75 cents per pound. If you want it, you can go to my house to get it! The New Year is in two days. I can't go into the mountains to hunt before the New Year!

Please inform the neighbors in the yard!"

This time, Lin did not deliberately not give the Liu and Jia families any meat. Instead, he treated everyone equally and agreed to sell two kilograms of meat to each household in the courtyard.

Yan Bugui was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded repeatedly to thank Lin Geng. Although two kilograms of meat was not a lot, it was very difficult to buy two kilograms of pork during the New Year under the current circumstances. At least every household would be able to have a meal of meat-stuffed dumplings. Many people could not even buy half a kilogram of meat during the New Year, so it was quite good that every household could get two kilograms of meat.

Therefore, Yan Bugui did not think it was too little. In previous years, it was good enough for his family to get one kilogram of meat for the New Year. Now he could get two kilograms of meat for the New Year, which made Yan Bugui very happy.

So Yan Bugui immediately called his four children to notify all the residents in the yard to go to the Lin family to get the meat. Each household would get two pounds of meat, at a price of 75 cents per pound. If they missed this opportunity, they would miss this shop in the village.

In fact, there was no need for Yan Bugui to notify the neighbors, because many of them had already noticed that Lin Geng had brought back a large piece of meat. They had heard the news and had begun to tell each other. In a short while, everyone in the front, middle and back yards knew that Lin Geng had brought back meat for the residents in the yard.

So as soon as Lin Geng got home, a neighbor came running to the Lin family with a smile. At that time, He Yushui was also on winter vacation, and He Daqing was also at home, so the father and daughter ran over to help Lin Geng and weighed the cut meat piece by piece. Basically, each piece was no more than two pounds. They quickly removed the bones from the large piece of pork with ribs on the front leg and cut it into more than twenty pieces of meat weighing two pounds, ensuring that every household could get two pounds of meat.

Yan Bugui specifically told the residents in the yard not to tell anyone about this matter. If they did, people from other yards would hear about it and would probably not do it. If they all came to Lin Geng to buy meat, it would be troublesome. So it was enough for only the people in the yard to know about it, but it must not be spread out. Otherwise, not only would it cause trouble for Lin Geng, but if they wanted to eat meat during the New Year next year, they could forget about Lin Geng getting meat for the neighbors in the yard.

So this involves the interests of every household, and this matter must never be spread out. It should be known only to the people in the yard.

After paying 1.5 yuan and getting two pounds of meat, most of the residents were very happy and thanked Lin more sincerely. Even Liu Haizhong's wife in the backyard shamelessly came to Lin's house with her head down and blushing, paid 1.5 yuan, got two pounds of meat, lowered her head, whispered thank you, and ran back home with the meat.

Yan Bugui was shameless and used the excuse that his family was taking care of the deaf old lady. He said that the old lady was a single household and must have some meat to eat during the New Year, so he had to give him two portions. This reason was reasonable, and Lin Geng didn't argue with him, so he let him pay three yuan and took two portions.

As for the He family and Xu Damao's family, neither of them came to get the meat. The He family did so because Lin Geng had been living with them at their house, so they would be indispensable if there was meat. Xu Damao knew that if he wanted something, Lin Geng would definitely give it to him, so he did not come to queue up to get the meat.

It was not until all the residents in the yard received the meat and went home with their smiles on their faces that Qin Huairu came over, forced a bitter smile at Lin Geng, and said, "Brother Xiaolin, you see, I am the only woman left in my family with two children, and another one in my belly. Dongxu is gone too, and life is really unbearable now!

Bang Geng and Xiao Dang are both growing up and need nutrition, but I really don’t have any money right now. Can you lend me two pounds of meat first? I’ll pay you back when I get paid after I go back to work?”

Lin Geng's face darkened when he heard this, thinking that Qin Huairu really didn't miss any opportunity to take advantage! Even if the family in the yard was in great difficulty, they all came with money to buy meat, but Qin Huairu was still shameless enough to ask for meat under the banner of borrowing.

Lin was very clear about what she was up to. Wasn't she just trying to get two pounds of meat for free? Lin would definitely not be polite to this scheming bitch. He said with a gloomy face, "Qin Huairu, are you done yet? Will you die if you don't cry poor? You want to take advantage of me again! Do you think I'm a fool? Can't I see what you are up to?

If you want to eat meat, just buy it with money. Don't try to use the trick of crying poor to get free food and drinks like before. Don't think I don't know that the factory gave Jia Dongxu 300 yuan of death compensation. I don't believe that you spent this 300 yuan in three months!

Go, go, go away!"

Qin Huairu's face darkened when she heard this, knowing that her trick was of no use to Lin Geng, so she could only glare at Lin Geng fiercely, then looked at the change and meat beside Lin Geng's hand, a vicious look flashed in her eyes, then she threw down a dollar and fifty cents in hatred, picked up a piece of meat, turned around, and walked towards home with her big belly and big butt twisted.

Lin Geng glanced at Qin Huairu's back, sneered, picked up the remaining ten pounds of pork and more than thirty yuan on the table, put the money in his pocket and went back home.
