Soul of the Siheyuan: Zhuzi, I can still give birth

He Yuzhu could understand the Lou family's confusion.

The word "real estate" is a foreign word and this term did not exist in this era.

"It's very simple. We buy land, build high-rise buildings, and then sell them. This is called real estate."

Lou Zhenhua had been in business for half his life, so he understood He Yuzhu's words immediately.

Then there was a long silence. He was thinking about the feasibility of the real estate that He Yuzhu mentioned.

"Zhu Zi, this real estate can definitely make money, but what about the profit...?"

Merchants value profit over separation; this is their nature, so profit is the most important thing.

After a long time, Lou Zhenhua asked He Yuzhu about the profit.

"I can't tell you the exact profit. The most expensive part is the land purchase. But the land in Hong Kong is very cheap right now. We'll buy the land in the slums on the main island at a very low price."

"But we have to ask the government to intervene, because those slum houses are illegal buildings. As for the very small amount of money as compensation, we can get high-quality land."

He Yuzhu explained all the real estate methods used in later generations.

All businessmen are dishonest. You can't blame He Yuzhu for being cruel. Just because you are not cruel doesn't mean others are not cruel.

If a man is not ruthless, he cannot stand firm. This is an eternal saying.

Lou Zhenhua didn't think there was anything wrong with what He Yuzhu said. In his opinion, it was perfectly normal.

"Yes, Zhuzi, you are right, but how can we have any connection with the Xiangdao government? The Xiangdao government is now managed by the Great Yin Empire."

Although Lou Zhenhua is in the mainland, he knows something about what's happening in Hong Kong.

"What's so difficult about this? There's a saying that goes, 'Cigarettes open the way, wine builds bridges.' At this time, the Hong Kong government can do anything for you as long as you pay them."

Hong Kong during this era was indeed the darkest time in the entire history of Hong Kong.

Black is white, white is black, and the people at the bottom of society suffer the most.

The underworld exploits the people, and the white world also exploits the people.

Since you are going to be exploited, you might as well let yourself be exploited. A general's success is built on the sacrifice of hundreds of soldiers, so there is no need to be so sentimental.

He Yuzhu said to the Lou family again.

"It is definitely not possible to give money directly to the government, but it can be given in the name of donation, such as donating government buildings, parks, or recreation centers and other public buildings to the Hong Kong government."

"Then we need to get all the major media, newspapers and magazines to do interviews and reports, and try to get as much attention as possible, so that the name of the Lou family can be heard throughout Hong Kong Island. Although a tall tree attracts the wind, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. As long as we are famous enough, we will be the world in Hong Kong Island."

Lou Zhenhua also kept He Yuzhu's eloquent talk in mind.

He thought he was already a business genius, but he didn't expect that this pillar was actually a business genius.

"Zhu Zi, I think you can really go to Xiangdao. Let's cooperate. My Lou family will provide the money and the labor, and you will be responsible for the overall planning. How can the profits be 50/50? How about you take 60% and I take 40%?"

Lou Zhenhua was completely impressed by He Yuzhu's genius thinking and was willing to cooperate with him even at the cost of money.

He Yuzhu naturally shook his head.

He knew that he and his fellow humans were virtual characters, and he wasn't sure whether this and the virtual world would disappear if he left Sijiu City.

After all, in the drama "Birds in the Courtyard", everything happens in the old city.

If I, as the protagonist, had left the old city, then this drama would not be "A Courtyard Full of Birds".

He Yuzhu still shook his head.

I still say that (I don’t want to leave this city)

After listening to He Yuzhu's words today, the Lou family felt like they had been enlightened by the pelican, as if the door to a new world had been opened.

Time flies, and it's almost five o'clock.

He Yuzhu looked at the Shanghai brand watch on his hand.

"Oh no, it's almost five o'clock, and I have to pick someone up. Uncle Lou and Aunt Tan, I'm leaving first. Xiao'e, goodbye."

After saying that, He Yuzhu stood up and was about to leave.

"Zhu Zi, why don't you bring your wife over and tell her that I'm inviting her to dinner and we can meet each other by the way."

Lou Zhenhua spoke.

He wanted to hear more suggestions from He Yuzhu so that they could avoid taking many detours in their future businesses in Hong Kong.

"No, maybe next time. We both have things to do today. Goodbye, Uncle Lou, Aunt Tan."

After saying that, He Yuzhu walked out, and Lou Zhenhua said to Lou Xiaoe.

"Go quickly and see Xiao Deng sending Zhuzi to Hongxing Primary School. This is outside Xizhimen."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and ran out with He Yuzhu.

The car sped all the way and finally arrived at Hongxing Primary School before school was over.

"Zhu Zi, where is your car? Did you walk here?"

Ran Qiuye saw He Yuzhu at the school gate, but his bicycle was not there.

He Yuzhu took Ran Qiuye's bicycle and said.

"I went to my boss's house today, so I didn't ride my bike. I asked Yu Li to ride my bike back when she gets off work."

"Let's go to Wangfujing Department Store!"

When he heard that He Yuzhu was going to Wangfujing Department Store, he asked curiously.

"Why go to Wangfujing? We don't have anything to buy!"

He Yuzhu smiled, fumbled in his bag for a while, and then took out a coupon.

“Look what this is!!”

Ran Qiuye pursed his lips.

"It's either a bicycle ticket or a watch ticket. What else could it be? We don't need these at home."

Thinking that his home now had everything he needed, Ran Qiuye smiled with satisfaction.

What else could I be dissatisfied with if I could marry a husband like this? Although his food, clothing, housing and transportation are not top-notch, they are definitely dozens of times better than those of ordinary people.

Seeing He Yuzhu's smug smile, Ran Qiuye took the ticket from He Yuzhu's hand, looked at it carefully, and was so scared that she covered her mouth with her hands and almost screamed out.

"TV tickets!!"

He Yuzhu grabbed Ran Qiuye's hand and said to her proudly.

"How's it going? Are you surprised? Are you surprised? Come on, let's go get the TV."

He Yuzhu rode Ran Qiuye's bicycle and took her to Wangfujing Department Store.

Li Qin's slightly bulging belly was not obvious, so she did not rest at home but continued to work.

She was on duty today and worked on the electrical appliances floor.

After graduation, Chen Jianjun did not come to work in the department store, but went to work in a textile factory.

Because he was a university graduate, he was directly appointed assistant to the deputy director of the workshop.

Basically, after completing the internship and becoming a regular employee, you will be promoted to the position of deputy director of the workshop.

Chen Jianjun has been coming home very late for several days, and he avoided Li Qin when she came to see him.

Li Qin didn't know what had happened, but someone from the textile factory told her.

A new female textile worker was seen coming out of Chen Jianjun's office in dishevel.

Although Li Qin didn't quite believe it, her man had indeed been behaving strangely recently.

But there was nothing she could do since Chen Jianjun was avoiding him.

I can only go to my father-in-law, Manager Chen.

After hearing this, Manager Chen also angrily scolded his son for being a disrespectful person, saying that his wife was pregnant but he still stayed out all night.

"Li Qin! Don't worry, I'll find a chance to talk to him about this. Don't worry about it. He's your man now, and you still have to believe in his talent."

Li Qin could hear that her father-in-law was taking sides and protecting his son.

It seems that no matter how much I say, it will be of no use.

Now I only hope that Chen Jianjun will consider that they are husband and wife and that I am pregnant with his child, and change his mind and return to my own home as soon as possible.

Because of her pregnancy, Li Qin often feels sleepy, whether it is day or night.

Just when I was looking for a place to rest, I saw He Yuzhu walking towards me, holding hands with a beautiful woman, talking and laughing.

When Li Qin saw the two people who were glamorous and talking and laughing, and thought about her current life, she couldn't help but sigh.

"If I had known this would happen, why would I have given up the pillar? Why would I have believed that damned widow so easily?"

Before her death, Matchmaker Wang went to see Li Qin again and told him about the love and hate between Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu.

He also knew that Qin Huairu deliberately broke up himself and He Yuzhu in order to take the position herself.

But He Yuzhu looked down on Widow Qin at all.

So Li Qin knew that she blamed He Yuzhu and had never really believed in Zhuzi.

So I deserve it, I deserve to be like this.

Li Qin didn't have the face to see He Yuzhu, so she hid quietly.

"Zhu Zi, your parents said they haven't seen you for a long time, and asked you to visit them when you are free. They want to eat the food you cook."

Li Qin hid in the corner, listening to what Ran Qiuye said to He Yuzhu.

"Mom and Dad? Isn't Zhuzi an orphan? Could it be that they are... married?"

Thinking of this, Li Qin suddenly felt lost, as if something had been taken away from her.

"Hehe, I was just saying that my parents can't live without me. Let's go back in a couple of days and bring some food to them. They should have had enough food by now."

He Yuzhu said cheerfully as the two of them walked to the TV counter.

There are three sales clerks at the TV counter, and they are the three with the best service attitude in Wangfujing Department Store.

Those who can afford to buy a TV are either rich or noble, and most of them are officials.

You can't afford to offend these people.

If you receive complaints from ordinary people, just pretend you didn't see them. But if you receive complaints from officials, then you'd better quit this job.

He Yuzhu and Ran Qiuye were seen looking around in front of the counter, apparently looking at the models of televisions.

But there is only one model here, and that is the TV produced by Tianjin Electronics Factory.

"Comrades, do you want to buy a TV?"

A salesperson in his thirties said to the two of them.

He Yuzhu nodded and pointed to a TV with an orange-red shell.

"Hello comrade, please bring me a TV of this color."

Although these TVs are of the same style, there are options for the color of the casing.

There are four colors to choose from: black, gray, yellow, and orange.

"Okay, but this TV ticket...!!"

Although the female salesperson was enthusiastic, she didn't have any TV tickets and she didn't have time to talk nonsense with you.

He Yuzhu immediately took out a TV ticket with the word "self" written on it.

When the female salesperson saw this kind of bill, her hands started shaking with fear.

This kind of ticket is not available to everyone. It can be said that the status of those who own this kind of ticket is really...!!

"Please wait a moment. I'll get you a new one right away."

The female salesperson immediately went backstage, and after a busy period, she came out with a cardboard box.

He opened the carton, took out the TV inside, plugged it in, and then fiddled with the two thin antennas on the TV with his hands, searching for a while.

A picture appeared on the black and white screen, and the opera playing was the Ping Opera (Flowers as Matchmakers).

After some testing, He Yuzhu and Ran Qiuye were very satisfied with this TV.

"Okay, this one, wrap it up for me."

The female salesperson nodded and said to He Yuzhu.

"Comrade, do you need an external antenna? The built-in reception is not very good."

He Yuzhu nodded, indicating that he needed one.

After some trouble, He Yuzhu and Ran Qiuye left the counter contentedly, carrying the TV and the external antenna made of aluminum alloy.

Only after seeing He Yuzhu and the others leave did Li Qin come out from the corner.

Watching the two people leaving from afar, Li Qin's eyes had a hint of loneliness.

The female salesperson noticed something was wrong with Li Qin, so she asked curiously.

"Team Leader Li, do you know them?"

Li Qin smiled bitterly, then turned and left.

It was already evening when He Yuzhu drove Ran Qiuye back to the courtyard.

As usual, the third uncle was cleaning his second-hand bicycle.

I saw He Yuzhu and the others coming back, carrying a large cardboard box and a strange thing in their hands.

"Zhu Zi, Teacher Ran, you are back. What are you carrying? This is a TV!!"

When the uncle saw the word "TV" written in large letters on the box, he screamed in surprise.

When the people in the front yard heard the third uncle howling, they all ran out to see what was happening.

"Hey, Deputy Director He, you bought a TV. This is the first TV in our compound. No, it should be the first TV in our entire Nanluoguxiang."

"Deputy Director He, can you really release a human figure? I haven't even watched TV yet."

Yu Li also came out at this time and said to He Yuzhu.

"Director He, this is your bicycle. I have cleaned it for you."

Yu Li pointed at the clean bicycle in the yard, turned around and saw the TV in He Yuzhu and the others' hands, her eyes full of envy.

He Yuzhu exchanged a few words of greeting, placed the TV on the back seat of his bicycle, and pushed it back to the central courtyard.

People in the front yard followed He Yuzhu back to the middle yard. They all wanted to see the legendary TV.

When they saw the people in the front yard, they all ran to the middle yard. The neighbors in the middle yard were also very curious and ran out to see.

Then I saw the cardboard box containing the TV on He Yuzhu's car frame.

"Wow! Deputy Director He bought a TV. From now on, we will have TV to watch in our compound."

"What nonsense are you talking about? That's Deputy Director He's home. How dare you go in and watch TV? Think about what the Jia and Yi families have become now."

"Yeah, let's just take a look and forget about it. Don't go into Deputy Director He's house."

Yi Zhonghai also followed the crowd and went to the door of He's house.

Qin Huairu was washing clothes by the sink as usual. When she saw the TV that He Yuzhu pulled back, she was so envious that her teeth almost broke.

"These should have been mine, but this one belonged to Ran Qiuye, it's really abominable."

Banggeng also pulled his sister Xiaodang out of the house and ran to the door of the He family to watch.

"This damn guy, I don't know where he stole the TV. How can his family have the right to watch TV? He should move to my house. We are orphans and widows, but he doesn't even offer any help."

Jia Zhang cursed and followed the crowd to the He family's door without saying a word.

The people in the backyard also rushed over after hearing the news. For a moment, everyone in the courtyard gathered around He Yuzhu's house.

He Yuzhu ignored his neighbors and took out the TV when he got home and put it on the cabinet.

Then he found a long bamboo pole and said to Ran Qiuye.

"Qiuye, I'll go set up the antenna. Watch me while I turn it. Call me when there's a picture."

Ran Qiuye stroked the TV and nodded at He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu used nails to fix the antenna on the bamboo pole, then set up a ladder and climbed onto the roof.

Place the bamboo pole against the eaves, secure it with wire, and then start to slowly turn it.

Soon, the picture appeared on the TV.

All the neighbors started shouting excitedly.

"Yes, yes, there is a picture. Look, there is a figure."

Ran Qiuye shouted outside.

"Zhu Zi, that's enough, there is a picture."

Only then did He Yuzhu come down from the roof happily.

Peking Opera (Dingjun Mountain) is playing on TV.

This made the second and third uncles, two drama fans, very happy.

Fortunately, the third uncle has a radio at home and can listen to opera on weekdays.

There was no radio at Second Uncle’s house, so he could only hum a few lines to himself.

Now when Peking Opera is broadcast on TV, they watch it with great interest.

Although Banggeng and Xiaodang didn't understand, they were staring at the TV intently.

"Qiuye, I'm going to cook. You stay here and watch. Don't let anyone in. Got it?"

Ran Qiuye nodded.

He Yuzhu went into the kitchen to cook.

Soon, two dishes and a soup were served.

The delicious smell made the neighbors in the yard who had not eaten drool.

But they couldn't bear to watch the scenes on TV, so they had to starve.

He Yuzhu and Ran Qiuye were watching TV and eating in the house, feeling very comfortable.

"Brother, I'm so hungry. I want to eat meat too."
