Siheyuan: I am a big capitalist after the founding of the People's Republic of China

The ups and downs outside did not affect Li Zihang's interest in sightseeing at all.

Seeing the news in the newspaper, he knew in his heart that this was the result of what the old man said two days ago, that he would settle accounts with certain people. He didn't expect that the old man's move would put so many people in jail.

Early in the morning, the old man came into his room and said he would take him to the home of the manager of the Russian Consulate.

After dressing up, Li Zihang followed the old man in a car and came to the home of the Consul General of Tianjin.

"Hi~ My dear Comrade Min. How are you doing recently?"

The old man got out of the car, shook hands with the Consul General of Mao Xiong and said, "I am still the same, but you know what happened in the past two years. Everything else is fine."

"Comrade Zaikokis, I heard that you have been doing very well in recent years."

Consul General: "My old friend, is this little comrade next to you your grandson?"

"She looks just like you."

"Hello, little comrade. My name is Zach Keith, Cage Dodan, Abuskid, McAfee, Sprad, John Keith."

"Excuse me, young comrade, what is your name?"

After saying that, he shook hands with Li Zihang again.

Li Zihang, who had learned Russian, finally found a place to put his skills to good use. He spoke authentic Russian immediately.

"Hello, Zach Keith, Cage Dodan, Ahbuskid, McAfee, Sprude, Grandpa John Keith. My name is Li Zihang, you can call me Hang."

"Your name is too long. Can I call you Grandpa Zakokis?"

As soon as Li Zihang spoke in Russian, the Consul General was surprised and delighted.

He turned to the old man and said, "Oh, my friend, your grandson speaks Russian very well. It seems that you really attach great importance to the training of your grandson."

Then he said to Li Zihang in his native language: "My lovely little comrade, of course you can call me grandpa. I didn't expect that you can speak Russian so well. I am really surprised and delighted."

The old man saw his grandson communicating with the Consul General without any language barrier. He was generous and polite. He was gentlemanly and elegant. He couldn't hide his smile unconsciously.

After some polite conversation, the two old men were led to the living room in the house.

Li Zihang also gave the gifts he brought to the Consul General and his family.

The gift to the Consul General was a jar of 20-year-old wine, and the gift to the Consul's wife was a double-sided lotus embroidered silk scarf made of Suzhou embroidery.

The gift to the consul's youngest daughter was a folding fan with ivory ribs and carved patterns. It was very exquisite.

The consul and his family were very satisfied with Li Zihang's gift. They opened the gift and praised it profusely.

After some mutual compliments, the consul said to his little daughter.

"My dear, can you take our distinguished guest, this little comrade, to the back garden to play?"

"I have something else to tell your Grandpa Min."

His little daughter, excitedly, pulled Li Zihang and skipped away.

Chaikokis looked at the two people who left, with a look of affection like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.

"Min, what do you say about me marrying my daughter to your grandson? They look like a perfect match."

When the old man heard this, he was instantly happy.

"Then you can only call me uncle from now on."

Zakkis slapped his forehead helplessly and said.

"How could I have forgotten the seniority system in your country? It's such a headache."

After chatting for a few more words, the two old men started talking about business.

"Min, your country's public-private partnership can seriously endanger my business with you."

"Don't you have any other ideas?"

Old man: "Chai, you know, in our country, the four classes are scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans. Businessmen can never beat officials. What do you want me to do? What can I do?"

Zacchis: "I understand what you mean. But we can always find another way, right?"

The old man looked at him deeply and said, "If you have any ideas, tell me. I'll see if they are appropriate."

Chicokis: "I heard that you have two younger brothers in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. Why can't we bypass your country and do business overseas directly?"

"Our country is currently lacking the most basic supplies. Bread and milk, canned fruits and vegetables, coats, daily necessities, liquor, and cigarettes."

"Your family can build factories overseas to produce these things. Then, smuggle them into our country."

"The rest is easy. As long as the goods arrive in our country, no matter the sales channels, transportation issues, or protection umbrellas, these are not a problem. I will take care of them all."

"My dear people, what do you think?"

After he finished speaking, he took a puff of his cigar and looked at the old man.

The old man looked into the other person's eyes and asked, "Chai, the relationship between our two countries is very harmonious now. Even if it is a public-private partnership, it will not affect your business. Even if it is not led by me, you can still make a lot of money."

Zakkis replied helplessly: "My dear people, you don't know what has happened in the past year since our business was no longer led by you?"

"The person who replaced him is just a politician who has no idea how to run a business. He follows all the rules and regulations strictly."

"When he came up, all the unspoken rules we had before were stopped. Everything has to be handled in a fair and impartial manner."

"Also, no matter what the matter is, as long as it is external, you have to consult your superiors. This is my biggest headache."

"You said canned food, meat. There is no problem freezing these items for a year or two, but he insisted on producing them according to the standard output. I have no room for control at all."

"There were some urgent needs, and he had to wait for his superiors to produce them. After going back and forth and then shipping them to our country, he completely missed the business opportunity. When the goods were most popular, one product could be sold for 50 rubles, and there was no worry about selling them."

"After he consulted with others, he realized, as you would say in your country, that the day lilies were already cold. Not only had the market been taken over by others, but the price was also half as low."

The old man exhaled a puff of smoke and said slowly: "Chai, it is impossible for me to infringe on the interests of the country for personal gain. You have to understand this."

Chaikokis looked at the old man helplessly: "My friend, are you okay? How could you say such words?"

"Also, from my personal experience, the people in your country are totally unfit for business. It's only a matter of time before they go bankrupt."

"If you don't do it, someone else will. Why don't we make the money?"

"I can promise you that for normal purchases, I can give priority to your country. We will go overseas for the rest."

The old man thought for a moment and said, "You should continue to purchase from the existing purchase lists. I will not do that business."

"For the rest, I will ask Nanyang and Hong Kong to develop new products and various daily necessities. Do you think this is okay?"

Zakkis clapped his hands happily and said, "No problem at all. It's a pleasure to continue doing business with you again."

In the back garden, Li Zihang was taken by the consul's young daughter, Anna, to see her pets.

He didn't know until he saw it, and he was shocked when he saw it.

In the back garden, there is a large iron fence with various animals kept in it, just like a zoo.

There are leopards, bears, sika deer, red pandas, peacocks, macaques, and a group of roosters over one meter tall.

He had never seen such a big rooster in his life.

Because of his and Anna's arrival, the animals in the fence came to the iron fence and circled around it.

At their feet, there was a group of Chinese native greyhound puppies, the prototype of Xiaotian Dog.

"Anna, those big roosters. What breed are they? I've never heard of them."

"You mean, those big roosters, the kind that were given to me as birthday presents by the Bald Eagle Consulate two years ago."

"I heard that the Bald Eagle people got these chickens by crossbreeding the Nine-pound Yellow Chicken from the Magic City with the chickens from Bangladesh. These chickens are a new breed."

"They are huge in size. The tallest chicken can grow to 1.2 meters. They can weigh more than 20 kilograms. There are many kinds of feather colors, like that one."

As he spoke, he pointed at a rooster that was completely white with a large red comb on its head, as red as blood. It had black feathers on its neck, like a vertical striped shirt. Its black feathers, like crow feathers, shone with colorful black under the sunlight.

The tail is also green, like the red-crowned crane, with long and dense tail feathers. Very beautiful. The entire chicken foot is not like ordinary chickens, without feathers. Instead, it has dense white down feathers. The chicken claws are thick and strong. Like wearing furry shoes.

The crown on the head is coral red, the neck is black, the tail is green, the feathers are pointed, the claws are sharp, the furry boots are thick, the wings are spread, and the throat is as loud as a phoenix.

"By the way, these chickens, they are named Brahma chickens, and they are also the largest chickens in the world."

Li Zihang looked at the chickens, which were so tall that they reached his nose when they stood up. There were also several of them, of different colors.

Two of them are black and white, with feathers like ink paintings. Several others are enlarged versions of roosters, with colorful feathers.

Seeing this, the group of puppies surrounding his legs were biting his trouser legs out of boredom.

Pulling him back from his admiration.

Li Zihang looked at the dozen or so Chinese Greyhound puppies at his feet, and then asked Anna.

"Why do you have so many thin dogs?"

Anna: "Skinny dogs? You mean these little dogs?"

Li Zihang nodded to indicate that they were the dogs.

Anna: "They are not thin dogs, these are Roaring Sky Dogs. Uncle Zhou, tell me, in the mythology of your country, Erlang Shen raised this kind of dog."

Li Zihang: "Then you have too many."

Anna: "Originally, there were four. They gave birth to many puppies in the past two years. I thought they were cute, so I kept them all."

After saying that, he squatted down again, picked up a puppy and handed it to Li Zihang.

"Look how cute they are. Do you want some? I can give you a few."

Li Zihang looked at these puppies and suddenly felt moved.

"Thank you, Anna. I only want to raise two. More than that will be too much trouble. I also have some at home, a kitten, and a flock of birds. If there are more, I'm afraid they will fight."

"By the way, Anna, can you give me a few of those big roosters? I want to raise some too."
