In the courtyard, under the leadership of Xu Damao, quite a few people have now joined in the business of reselling televisions between him and Yan Bugui.

At this time, televisions were far from popular in the homes of the city. It was still a seller's market, and every time a television was purchased, even if it was marked up, as long as it didn't require a ticket, even if the price was the same as in the mall, there would still be people rushing to buy it.

At this moment, people like Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong have almost all retired. However, people like Banggeng have not grown up yet. It is the era of Xu Damao.

At this moment, many families in the courtyard followed Xu Damao to make a fortune. As for Yan Bugui, he was following behind to keep accounts. It's true that Yan Bugui's nickname, "Abacus Expert", was not wrong. For such a long time, he hadn't made a single mistake in keeping accounts.

This level is not inferior to that of a professional accountant. I don't know why I didn't become an accountant back then.

At this moment, Xu Damao, who had made a lot of money, was enjoying himself outside. He had no idea that at this moment, a small meeting of the entire courtyard was being held in the courtyard of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.

At this moment, in Yi Zhonghai's house in the middle courtyard, there was wine and meat on the table. Yi Zhonghai sat in the main seat, and on his left and right were Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong from the backyard.

As for tonight's meal, it was Yan Bugui's daughter-in-law Yu Li who was busy in the kitchen. As for the first aunt, she finally went offline two years ago, and now, Yi Zhonghai was the only one left.

To be honest, it was better to die in front of Yi Zhonghai, at least he would not be left exposed at home, and no one would find him when he was dying. Only Yi Zhonghai, the old man, would be left alone to suffer in this world!

Over the years, without his wife to take care of him, Yi Zhonghai has been living with Qin Huairu's family. Even when he retired last year, he inherited his job to Bang Geng.

The bankbook at home had a five-digit deposit. However, returning to his room every night, alone and childless, made Yi Zhonghai even more tormented.

This is why the three of them chose to gather at Yi Zhonghai's house tonight. After Yu Li finished cooking, she went back to the front yard. At this moment, no one disturbed the three of them.

"Hey, Old Yan, is what you said true? Did Xu Damao take most of the money from selling the TV?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui took a sip of wine and said indignantly: "Hey, we have been friends for so many years. Why don't you believe me when I tell you this?"

"The account book is in my room. I'll get it for you right away."

"Hey, hey, don't get excited, don't get excited, Old Yan, I'm just talking."

"Tell me in detail, how much did Xu Damao get?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai turned his gaze to Yan Bugui, wanting to know how much money Xu Damao had taken over the years.

Yan Bugui looked at the uncle and the second uncle who used to suppress him, took a sip of wine and moistened his throat, but did not speak. Instead, he stretched out his right hand, spread out his five fingers and shook it.

Seeing Yan Bugui like this, Yi Zhonghai's face fell immediately. He probably knew what this meant.

But he was big-shouldered, thick-waisted, and thick-necked, but his head was small. After thinking about it, he still didn't understand the twists and turns. He asked in confusion: "Old Yan, what do you mean by this?"

"Fifty percent, that is, half. We have so many families in our yard. For every TV we buy, Xu Damao takes 50% of the profit. The rest is divided according to how much each family contributes."

Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong slammed his raised glass on the table and said, "Xu Damao is such a jerk. He is using our money to do his own thing. He is such a jerk."

"So, we have been working for Xu Damao all these years?"

"Then Old Yan, tell me, can we get rid of Xu Damao and work on our own?"

Today's party was held at Yi Zhonghai's house at the suggestion of Yan Bugui, in order to get rid of Xu Damao and start a business on his own.

People are always dissatisfied and always want to swallow an elephant. Actually, it was Xu Damao's fault. He shouldn't have asked Yan Bugui to keep the accounts. Otherwise, Yan Bugui wouldn't have the thoughts he has now.

"Not yet. Our current TV sets are all sourced from the city of Sijiu, so there's not much profit to be made."

"Xu Damao told me some time ago that he has already contacted people in the south. After this year, he will bypass the black market in Sijiu City and purchase goods at a lower price than before."

"The profits from this can still increase."

"Let's follow Xu Damao one or two more times, figure out the channels, and then we can break away from him and go it alone."

"Yeah, Old Yan, this is a good idea, let's do it."

"Come on, drink, drink, I'll fill your glass, fill it up."

At this moment, Xu Damao, who had no idea what was going on, was still having fun in the secret door of the Forbidden City. Back then, after the famous eight alleys in the Forbidden City were destroyed by the teachers, and with someone keeping watch, no one dared to come openly anymore.

But this secret door has never been eradicated. This kind of thing can never be eradicated.

Look, Xu Damao is having a good time with Sister Yao at this moment. However, as he gets older, Xu Damao can no longer maintain the ability of being a real man for three minutes during his peak period.

At the same time, the sister who served Xu Damao was also sighing in her heart that it was so easy to make money from this gentleman, and it would be done in two or three steps. As long as she said a few nice words, she would make another fortune.

Xu Damao was very generous, so Sister Yao naturally would not say anything bad about him.

On the other hand, at Liu Ping'an's house, Liu Weidong and his brother worked hard for the whole afternoon, and finally bought some coal for the winter. By the way, they also bought some for Cai Quanwu's family at the tavern.

It was just a pity that Liu Weidong's wallet was much emptier. When he left, Cai Quanwu wanted to give Liu Weidong the money for the coal. However, the young man, who cared about his reputation, turned around and left.

Otherwise, the two wouldn't have been so busy until it was dark before they settled down. The two had been busy from the afternoon until now, and they didn't even have time to eat a hot meal.

At this time, Liu Ping'an had already enjoyed the warmth brought by the winter coal. In the backyard, Liu Ping'an installed a set of heating equipment for his home when he was working in the steel mill. In winter, he only needed to fill the coal stove in the corner of the backyard with coal once a day to keep warm for the whole day. The thermal efficiency of coal was much higher than that of large boilers.
