Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

Without staying long, Chen Xu left the courtyard directly.

It is inevitable that He Daqing will leave. There is no place for him in the Siheyuan now. Besides, this guy has cheated Yi Zhonghai so much that when Yi Zhonghai comes to his senses, he will probably drive him away.

If we were able to drive He Daqing away back then, we can do so now too. The reasons are ready.

Chen Xu could guess why He Daqing was worried. The issue of class background was quite serious. If he really sued him for changing his class background, He Daqing would also have to go to jail. However, He Daqing now had some leverage over Yi Zhonghai.

Chen Xu didn't believe that He Daqing didn't have the evidence from the post office in his hands. This guy would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity. After all, Yi Zhonghai was just a little clever and it would be difficult for him to outsmart He Daqing. I just don't know when Yi Zhonghai will remember this.

There is a gap between old foxes.

In Chen Xu's eyes, He Daqing was probably at the same level as the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai was about the same as Xu's father, and they were half a level lower than the first two.

Apart from the deaf old lady, the only person in the courtyard who could compete with Yi Zhonghai was the evil Qin Huairu.

But Qin Huairu's weaknesses are obvious, and the three little ones are her Achilles' heel.

The other one is the old hag Jia Zhang. This old woman is not stupid. Chen Xu knew the reason when he compared the current Jia Zhang with the one in his memory.

After Jia Dongxu's death, the old woman's temperament changed drastically. She changed from an old woman who was not easy to talk to to an old woman who would throw a tantrum at any time and was unreasonable. She would make a fuss even when she was not being told what to do, probably out of helplessness.

There is no man left in the family, only two widows. If they don't stand up for themselves, they will be bullied to death.

When Jia Dongxu was first hung on the wall, Qin Huairu, who was like a little white flower, was obviously unreliable. Jia Zhangshi did this just to save the Jia family. The only disappointing thing was that this old hag was a double-edged sword. She was arrogant and domineering to the outside world, but only treated her eldest son well at home.

This old hag also has obvious weaknesses. She doesn't have much brains and acts impulsively, making her easily deceived. She also likes to steal. It's all thanks to Yi Zhonghai that she wasn't beaten to death.

Being beaten to death for stealing is not a big deal these days. If a thief is caught, he will be beaten to death. This courtyard is particularly strange. Any problem can be solved in the courtyard. If there were more guys like Chen Xu, Jia Zhang should have been sent to labor reform long ago.

Chen Xu walked towards the steel mill while thinking about all sorts of things. If he checked in at this time, it would be almost time to go to the cafeteria for lunch.

Purchasing Department.

Director Chen waved to Chen Xu who came in.

"director."

"Well, come with me."

In the office, Director Chen looked at Chen Xu who was standing upright and was very satisfied.

"We discussed it yesterday. Dry goods are not suitable for large-scale purchase by steel mills. Not to mention that they are expensive, they are not suitable for making large pot dishes."

Chen Xu nodded. He had the same thought when he didn't dare to buy anything in the black market last night. Nowadays, it is hard to put dry goods in the big pot.

"But sometimes the factory still needs to entertain guests, so we still have to prepare some things in case of emergency. If guests suddenly come, it would be embarrassing if we can't even take out some food to entertain them. Dried food is very good. If it is well preserved, it can be kept for a long time."

"Director, do you mean we purchase in small quantities?"

"Yes, do you still have any in your hometown?"

"Yes, after all, we are all hunters, so we have some stocks. We just need to run around more. Nowadays, many hunters live in the mountains. After all, they can fill their stomachs in the mountains, but not necessarily outside."

"Yes, I'll give you a target. You can buy about 100 kilograms. You can choose the variety. This number will be fine. The price will still be calculated based on the price I gave you last time. How do you think?"

"Okay, Director, you have the final say."

"Well, do your job well. I'll assign this task to you. Also, next time you bring it back, bring it directly to me instead of going to the hall. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Director, rest assured."

Chen Xu knew it clearly in his mind. It was obvious that someone was greedy for this, but it was not easy to show it openly. If people knew that the factory purchased a lot of dry goods but didn't see anything in the end, it would have a bad impact.

Chen Xu returned to the hall and looked at the purchase order on the wall. As expected, it was specially marked that dry goods were not suitable for providing snacks to the workers, so purchasing was temporarily stopped.

interesting.

Chen Xu laughed in his heart, what a unique business.

The others just took a look and ignored it. It is really rare to come across such useful stuff in normal times.

There is still a lot in my space, but the director said about a hundred kilograms. It’s not too much for Chen Xu to purchase 150 kilograms, right?

It’s almost the end of the month, and the indicators for next month have been settled.

Director Chen offered him a price of two dollars and fifty cents, so Chen Xu made several hundred dollars easily.

Sure enough, it is not difficult to make money if there are channels, Chen Xu sighed in his heart.

He knew in his previous life that he couldn't get rich with a fixed salary, but even though he knew it, there was no other way. This was probably the sadness of many workers. It would have been fine if they didn't know, but in this age of information explosion, everyone has heard of some things.

But it's useless. You still have to work. Information, channels, and connections are the keys to getting rich, but 99% of people don't have them.

Some people are born to be Romans, some are born to be cattle and horses. It is so unfair.

In a short period of time, Chen Xu was able to get a lot of money that others could not save in several years. In addition to luck, thinking was the biggest help. Most people nowadays want to be a worker and have a stable job. Chen Xu's ideas are completely different from these people.

It’s hard to say who is smarter than the other, it’s just that their goals are different.

Being a worker is enough to support a family and it is stable, so it is naturally people's first choice.

Chen Xu now has to consider Lin Chan, his living father. The little income he earns as a worker may only be enough to fill the gaps in the teeth of this girl with a huge mouth in the abyss, so naturally he has to think of other ways.

This is fate, people are forced into it.

Since Chen Xu coveted the other person's body, he naturally had to fulfill his obligations. There was nothing he could do about it.

In the cafeteria.

Chen Xu was one of the first to come and eat. The workers came over after get off work when he was halfway through his meal.

Feeling someone sitting in front of him, Chen Xu raised his head.

Two pairs of eyes met.

"Chen Xu, you don't have much time left in your one-month probation period. Where are you going to find food in the future?"

Although Jia Dongxu said words that seemed to show concern, everyone could see the gloating on his face.

Chen Xu didn't want to pay any attention to this idiot and looked at Yi Zhonghai next to him.

The old man was a little absent-minded at the moment, and Chen Xu could understand it very well. If he had lost so much money and was now being criticized by others, he probably wouldn't be in a good mood.

When he went to the steel rolling mill today, even people in the purchasing department were discussing Yi Zhonghai. It can be imagined that the little reputation Yi Zhonghai had accumulated over the years has been thrown to waste.

"Chen Xu, why don't you work harder these few days? The purchasing department clears out those who don't work every month. Maybe you can stay too?"

Chen Xu resisted the urge to slam the lunch box on the idiot's forehead.

He silently thought that wasting food was shameful and stared at Jia Dongxu.

"What? Can your family have enough food? Your girl is starving like a monkey now. She can't even take care of her daughter. If it were me, I would have been hanged this morning and still be alive with such a big face. Jia Dongxu, I still admire you for being thick-skinned."
