Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

Cai Quanwu followed He Yuzhu to the alley in front of his house. He Yuzhu looked around and saw no one, then whispered, "Uncle, judging from the harvest of autumn crops this year, there must be a large-scale disaster this year. In this way, the food on the market will have to give priority to meeting the daily needs of ordinary people, and the food used for breeding will inevitably be squeezed and reduced. By then, the supply of meat on the market will certainly drop sharply. The friend who has been providing us with live pigs and eggs has come to me. He said that once the supply of meat becomes tight, he will find a way to get a batch of pork and eggs to send to the city. By then, you don't need to go to work anymore, so you can handle these goods."

"It's no problem if you leave it to me, but Zhuzi, if it really comes to the situation as you said, then the prices of pork and eggs will skyrocket. How many people can afford it?" Cai Quanwu asked with a worried look on his face.

"Uncle, don't underestimate this matter! The reason why that person chose to transport pork and eggs to Sijiu City at this moment is not simple! By then, prices will soar, and the prices of these materials will definitely be high, and the profits will be even more lucrative. Ordinary people may not be able to afford such high prices, but uncle, don't forget where we are standing? This is the famous Sijiu City! This capital has been operated for hundreds of years by the Sun and Moon Dynasties and the Braid Dynasty. Too many people have precious treasures passed down from generation to generation. When these people have no money to eat, there will definitely be many people who take out their treasures to sell, and then they can put these treasures in their pockets at a very low price. That person saw this point and acted in this way."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, Cai Quanwu suddenly woke up from his dream and nodded repeatedly, "So that's how it is! After hearing what you said, I finally understand it completely."

He Yuzhu continued, "At that time, the transportation of pork will be handed over to you. As for the collection of the goods, I will have to go there in person and ask my master to help. After all, he has a wide range of friends, especially those who are old and young from the Pigtail Dynasty. With his help in checking and appraising, we can ensure that everything is foolproof, and we don't have to look around for customers who need to buy things in the future. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

Cai Quanwu responded: "Since you have planned it, then we will do as you say."

"By the way, when the time comes, let Zhang Hu and the other six cooperate with you. Remember to be careful. After all, it will be an extraordinary period when the time comes, and the intensity of the official inspection of private transactions will be unprecedented."

"Well, I know how serious it is."

After He Yuzhu and Cai Quanwu said goodbye, he rode his bicycle to his master Guan Xuezong's house. As usual, Guan Xuezong's house was still deserted. He Yuzhu came to Guan Xuezong with eggs, peanuts and camellia oil that he had taken out from the blessed land and said, "Master, I came to see you. Have you had dinner?"

"I've had lunch, but not dinner yet!"

"Then wait for me here for a while, I'll make you some fried eggs."

He Yuzhu came to the kitchen, took out 5 eggs he had brought with him, skillfully fried them into a small plate, and made a plate of peanuts, then brought them to the dining table, "Master, it's time to eat!" After saying that, He Yuzhu found the wine he had given to Guan Xuezong, gave him a glass and placed it in front of Guan Xuezong.

"Hey, Zhuzi, you even prepared some snacks for me! What a great day." Guan Xuezong picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"Master, why don't you move to my house and live with me? I think it's too lonely for you to be alone at home. I'm usually busy with work, and Xiao'e gave birth to three more sons in the summer. I really can't spare the time to come and see you. If you come to my house, it will be convenient for me to take care of you. My firstborn sons are just over three years old this year, and they are also at the age of enlightenment. You can help teach them!"

"You little brat, after all this time you want me to come over and help you take care of the child." Guan Xuezong pointed at He Yuzhu and said with a smile, "Zhuzi, I understand what you're thinking, but I'm used to being alone. There are too many people in the courtyard where you live, and I really don't want to go there. As for your request for me to help you teach the child, that's no problem. Just send the child to me when the time comes."

"Master, please move to my house!" He Yuzhu pleaded again.

"Zhu Zi, please stop trying to persuade me. I have my own son and family, so it's not appropriate for me to go to your house. I don't blame you for not coming to see you often. I know that what you do is good for the development of the country, and I'm proud to have a disciple like you."

Seeing that Master Guan Xuezong was so determined, He Yuzhu had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​persuading Master Guan Xuezong to live with him. "Master, I came here today not only to see you, but also to ask you for something."

"What's the matter?" Guan Xuezong picked up the wine glass and slowly drank the wine in the glass. After putting the glass down, he asked.

He Yuzhu picked up the wine pot and filled Guan Xuezong's glass with wine, then said, "To be honest with you, Master, I used to do a small business with someone privately. Some time ago, I stopped the business because of the disaster in the south and there was no supply. Recently, the person contacted me again and said that there was a supply again, so I planned to start the business with him again."

"What business?" Guan Xue Zong asked expressionlessly. In fact, Guan Xue Zong had vaguely realized from the beginning that He Yuzhu was doing some business in private, otherwise He Yuzhu would not have so much money to buy old items. It's just that he was too lazy to ask. After all, who doesn't have his own secrets?

"That man is able to sell pork and eggs to the city of Sijiu. You know the current situation. The prices of eggs and pork will definitely be ridiculously high. Ordinary people will definitely not be able to afford them." He Yuzhu said cautiously.

"Well, you are right. Then what do you plan to do?" Master Guan Xuezong frowned and fell into deep thought.

"Ordinary people definitely can't afford it, but some people can definitely afford it and are willing to eat it." He Yuzhu smiled mysteriously and pointed at his master Guan Xuezon.

"Oh? You mean... you plan to sell the things to the bannermen? But as far as I know, most of the bannermen now live a very ordinary life, and only a few rely on selling their ancestral property to make a living." Guan Xuezong asked doubtfully. But when Guan Xuezong saw the expression on He Yuzhu's face, he suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand, you plan to sell the things to those prodigal sons who are greedy for enjoyment, such as people like Niu Ye."

He Yuzhu nodded and said flatteringly: "Master is really smart. He guessed my thoughts at a glance."

"Stop flattering me and tell me what you plan to do specifically!"

"First of all, this kind of thing must not be done in a big way. It can only be done secretly. At this time, I need to rely on your prestige, Master. Anyone who wants to eat pork but has no money can bring the good things from his family to your house. After you have reviewed them, let my cousin take them away. Then those people can take the money and go to the person I designate to buy pork and eggs. In this way, I can satisfy the appetites of these people and make a noise quietly. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

"So what price are you going to charge for those things?"

"I don't try to force them to pay. I just follow the market. I'll buy whatever price is on the market. I won't give them a penny less."

"So what are you going to do after you get these things back?"

"I will find a place to store these things first. When there is a suitable opportunity in the future, I will either donate them to the country or build a museum myself. No matter which option I choose, it is better for me to have these things than to let those people sell them to other people who don't know the details."

Guan Xuezong nodded in satisfaction. "It's rare that you have such an idea. As your master, I will definitely help you. Then let your uncle come to me!"

"Disciple, thank you Master for your help!"

"Well, you've been here for quite some time. I guess you didn't go home after get off work, so you came directly to my house. It's getting late now, so you should go back and cook for your wife!"

"Thank you for your understanding, Master. I will take my leave now. Please take your time to eat and drink." After saying that, He Yuzhu walked out of his master Guan Xuezong's house, pushed the bicycle in the yard and rushed to his home in Nanluoguxiang.

On the way home on his bicycle, He Yuzhu was thinking about when to start this business. In fact, since he dismissed Zhang Hu's brothers last time, He Yuzhu planned to quit the business. But when he heard Zhang Hu and his friends say that the price of antiques in the market had plummeted recently, He Yuzhu was tempted again. He could take this opportunity to collect more good things and put them in the blessed land, so that when the great movement of the decade came, he could save many treasures that were destroyed.
