Siheyuan: Picked up by a goddess in 48 years
Chapter 245 A visit from a friend
Lu Zhenyuan didn't pay much attention to the commotion in the courtyard. Seeing that the two police officers were not doing their job well, he went home and told the two beauties everything he had seen in detail.
After all, we are just listening to gossip. If he speaks simply and clearly, then what's the point of listening? We can just treat it as a story.
Not long after, Yi Zhonghai called a cart, and Jia Dongxu was carried out amid the wailing of Jia's wife and mother. This really did not waste a moment and focused on efficiency.
Because Jia Dongxu passed away, the courtyard was very quiet at night.
After the two women returned to the bedroom, Lu Zhenyuan lay on the sofa and started drawing the lottery out of boredom.
He did not choose the denomination of 1000 points. He had drawn the lottery too many times and it was boring. He wanted to wait until the system was upgraded after the New Year to draw the lottery again, hoping to get some new and interesting things.
Now, just to kill time, I spent more than 10 collapse points, and drew all the smallest denominations starting from points. More than items appeared in my mental vision.
At a glance, most of the items are food, accessories, toys and other small items.
However, there were a few items that caught his eye.
【Ghost Mushroom】: It will produce hallucinogenic effects after taking it.
【Knife-handling Door Lock】: The blade will pop out as long as the key does not match.
【Lying board】: You will be stuck if you lie on it.
Three small props are better than nothing. I guess the system can't stand his recent laziness and not targeting the beasts.
Shake your head and go to sleep!
The next morning, Jia Zhang's highly recognizable crying sound was heard in the central courtyard.
Lu Zhenyuan curled his lips.
I reluctantly ignored the noise and replaced the door lock with the knife-handling door lock I had drawn last night. Aunt Mei and little Zheng Juan had also washed up and were ready to come over to cook.
Lu Zhenyuan then told the two of them the effect of this mechanical lock and gave them a spare key. After returning to the house, he told Lu Wanyi and Yuyan about the door lock again.
By the time the family had finished their meal, the wailing in the middle courtyard had not yet subsided.
"Alas, although it is just the trivial sounds of life, it disturbs people's minds and makes it difficult to have peace." Yuyan sighed cutely, feeling that sometimes being too sensitive is not a good thing.
Lu Zhenyuan chuckled.
"Since there is no peace, then find some fun for yourself and divert your attention."
"Eh?"
Looking at Yuyan's cute appearance, Lu Zhenyuan took out the ghost mushroom.
"Here, take Xiaojuan and the two of you to do the experiment. This kind of mushroom will cause hallucinations after eating it. You two can find some small animals to do the experiment."
The two girls' eyes suddenly lit up.
"Brother, it's not poisonous, right?"
"Don't worry, it's just hallucination-inducing, not lethal." Lu Zhenyuan was very sure that if this thing fell into the hands of certain people, they might treat it as a treasure. After all... it was just hallucination-inducing, and would not cause any harm to the body.
This stuff is much more advanced.
Of course, the premise is that the hallucinogenic scene is benign, but judging by the name of ghost mushrooms, I'm afraid that 80% of the effects will not be benign.
I guess you will really see ghosts after eating it!
Well... this does feel a bit unfair to the little animals, but they are all raised by ourselves, so... it’s not a big problem?
He was about to send the two girls into the space, but was rejected.
"No, brother, go and send Auntie away, and we'll talk when you come back."
Looking at this clever girl, Lu Zhenyuan always felt that she was up to something. Hey... why is it that she has become a little naughty as she gets older? She seems not as well-behaved as she was when she was a child. What should I do?
Shaking his head, Lu Zhenyuan didn't think much about it. Although his sister was not as well-behaved as before, that was only relatively speaking.
To outsiders, Yuyan is still someone else's sister.
He was also confident about Yuyan's intelligence and sensibility, so he asked Aunt Mei to look after the two girls while he rode his bicycle to take his adopted sister to work.
After that he had to distribute the grain.
In the past two years, with the food in his space, although most of it was free, he also received some rewards. He used it to take in many people who were helpless or unable to survive and work for him.
Moreover, he also made a lot of money because of his cooperation with Brother Hao and others.
Except for the first two years, Brother Hao and his friends' shop grew bigger and bigger, and they could not handle it on their own, so they brought in a big boss nicknamed Xiaoxiao.
Although his title is small, his behavior is that of a real big boss and he is very generous.
But he is a rather mysterious person and rarely shows up. The people who contact him are still Brother Hao and others.
Because he could exchange food here, not just cash, but also gold, other valuables and properties, he had accumulated quite a bit of assets over the years.
He had more than ten properties, all of which he distributed to his subordinates for living and use.
Of course, the most satisfying income is the golden little goldfish.
Because gold is collected from above, gold trading is not allowed openly. It is not easy for those rich bosses to spend their gold, and sometimes they even have to exchange it for cash on the black market.
But in terms of proportion, you will definitely suffer some losses.
Why don't they go to regular banks to exchange money? Of course, these wealthy bosses themselves are not so "clean" and they are afraid of being investigated for their wealth.
For him, using gold for transactions is the normal market price, so Hao Ge and others mostly trade with him in gold.
It doesn’t matter if they don’t have that much gold, as long as others have it.
They used the money from selling grain to exchange with those who had gold. The rate of profit was a little lower than that in the black market, so those bosses were naturally happy to exchange with them, and the gold on Lu Zhenyuan's side had a normal exchange rate.
They exchanged the grain and sold it for money, so all three parties benefited.
He made a profit from the price difference from the financiers and Lu Zhenyuan, and from those who bought the grain.
Of course, this money is not so easy to make, and all the risks involved are borne by themselves.
Nothing has gone wrong so far, and it can be said that Brother Hao and others are very capable.
After sending his cheap sister to the street office, Lu Zhenyuan went straight to the warehouse to store grain. Although the situation has eased now, it is estimated that a stable and normal supply will be restored by next year.
But in this era, as long as the quota remains in place, selling grain will always be profitable.
It is nothing more than a change from huge profits to meager profits, but overall there is still profit to be made.
So as long as Brother Hao and others want to continue to make this money, he will continue to provide food, which is a win-win situation.
After distributing the grain, he listened to Zhang Mazi's work report. When he found nothing unexpected happened, he was about to go back when a younger brother came running over.
"Boss, Miss Liu Yan seems to have something urgent to discuss with you. She asked me to come and see you."
Lu Zhenyuan raised his eyebrows. Xiao Yuyan asked someone to come find her, so she must have something urgent.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Seeing that the boy was pedaling his bicycle so hard that smoke came out of the back and he must be very tired, Lu Zhenyuan handed him a big unity banknote.
Since the business stabilized, he has been paying salaries to his followers. Although he could let them work for free, it was not advisable in terms of long-term development.
After all, now it is they who are adapting to the environment, rather than the environment adapting to them.
"Thank you, boss!" The younger brother was very excited, not because he got ten dollars, but because it was a reward from the boss. You know, the chances of getting a reward from the boss are not many. He has made up his mind that he will pass down the ten dollars as a family heirloom!
After saying goodbye to Zhang Mazi and the younger brother who was inexplicably excited, Lu Zhenyuan got on his bicycle and pedaled at full speed to rush back.
