Siheyuan: Learning to be the sixth

Chapter 536: Is this melon ripe?

"Zhu Zi, Zhao Xu told me, you can go ahead and do it without worry. I will take care of you if anything goes wrong. Although it is reform and opening up, the rules should still be followed. Just control the scale."

"Uncle Zhou, I feel relieved with your words. Thank you, Uncle Zhou."

"Get lost~ Your Aunt Wang was nagging you a few days ago, saying she hadn't seen you for a long time."

"Uncle Zhou, please tell Aunt Wang that I have been to Heilongjiang Province recently and am not in Beijing. I will come to visit her once I have sorted out this matter."

"Zhu Zi, I just said this casually. I know you are busy, and your Aunt Wang is also retired and bored at home."

Isn’t this retirement syndrome? It’s hard for Aunt Wang.

"Uncle Zhou, you really won't transfer one of my brothers and sisters back?"

"Your sister is now with the army in Tianjin, and your brother has a heavy mission in Xinjiang Province. Let's talk about it after this year."

He Yuzhu has nothing but admiration for this. Soldiers and their families are always the noblest.

"Uncle Zhou, we'll leave first. When you have time, ask Aunt Wang to come to my house often. My house is full of naughty kids and it's lively."

"to make."

After leaving Secretary Zhou's office and going downstairs, I saw that Zhao Xu had already gathered his men and was ready to go.

After greeting Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu was about to open his mouth to say something.

He Yuzhu and Wei Junjian were tactful enough to get into the car they had driven and left. The next person to be anxious was He.

Wei Junjian, who had calmed down a little, drove while explaining to He Yuzhu the people and events in the capital during his absence.

In a nutshell, there are more and more people who want to "get something for nothing".

This is one of the reasons why it is difficult for China to have a true unicorn, "bullying the nest".

Suddenly, the Wei warship braked suddenly, and He Yuzhu was so scared that he thought something urgent happened.

"Warship, what's wrong?"

"Brother Zhuzi, do you think the watermelons that man is selling are sandy?"

He Yuzhu also likes to eat watermelon. Lao Liu used to provide him with watermelon, but now he has entered the retirement mode and is too lazy to pay attention to He Yuzhu.

For this reason, He Yuzhu has put a lot of thought into making sure his family can eat good melons in the summer. Even Yaoyao said, "Why aren't the melons in recent years as delicious as they used to be?"

The same was true for Wei Junjian, who was also a daughter slave. The two of them parked the car aside and came to the stall.

When he got closer, He Yuzhu discovered that the boss looked very much like a star named Sun in later generations, who was famous for playing "bad guys".

I subconsciously asked: "Boss, is this melon ripe?"

When the boss heard this, he took out a 30-centimeter machete from the bottom of the stall and said, "Boss, if you don't know it well, no money."

He Yuzhu thought to himself: "That's right, this guy might be the actor's father or grandfather."

He Yuzhu casually handed a cigarette to the melon stall owner and asked:

"Boss, what's your name? Could you please cut a watermelon for me to see? If the quality is good, we will buy all the watermelons from your stall."

If the boss hadn't seen He Yuzhu and the others driving by, he would have thought that He Yuzhu and Wei Junjian were making fun of him.

But he asked again.

"Boss, please tell me your last name is Sun, but my melons are not cheap, they cost five cents a pound."

"Why are you such a nagging boss? Just cut it when I tell you to."

Hearing this, the melon stall owner started to open the melons for the sake of the cars passing by, and they looked quite ripe.

"Boss, shall we try it?"

The vendor named Sun looked very distressed and conflicted.

He Yuzhu finally understood why Boss Sun's melons looked good but sold so few. He was too stingy. How could you attract people without a tasting session?

"Brother, you can't do business this way. Even good wine needs to be hidden in a remote alley. If you don't let me test the quality, how can I decide whether to buy it all?"

Since he thought of setting up a stall in the city, he must have some ideas in his mind, and He Yuzhu understood it immediately.

Immediately, he put on a smile and clasped his fists and said, "Boss, I'm grateful for your advice. I was too poor in the past few years and didn't change my ways. Boss, please try it."

This time they were generous, and He Yuzhu and Wei Junjian each took a large piece.

The two of them didn't hesitate to take it and took a bite. It was crunchy in the mouth, just like sugar, but still very moist. If it was left on ice in the well in the yard overnight and then eaten a bite at noon the next day, it would be very delicious.

"How are you, bosses? I'm not bragging, am I? My melons are one of the most valuable in the capital."

"Well, Boss Sun, your melons are really good. Let me tell you a price for you to consider. Four cents a pound. I will buy not only your melons today, but also all the melons of the same quality in your field. How about that?"

When Boss Sun heard this, he realized that he could sell the products at a higher price by setting up a stall here, but he still had to pay the stall fee. Sometimes he could not sell all the products in a day and had to return them.

With this calculation, it would be more cost-effective to sell them in a package.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Boss, I agree to the price you mentioned."

"Okay, Boss Sun, here's a ten-dollar deposit. Please deliver it to my house. When you get there, just say that He Yuzhu bought the watermelon, and someone will pay you the balance."

Boss Sun was fine with this. He happily handed the cut melon to He Yuzhu and said, "Boss, I won't charge you for this. Take it and eat it."

He Yuzhu didn't refuse either, as he was just going to the textile factory to eat melons.

"Boss Sun, we'd be disrespectful to refuse you then. Don't rush to pick the melons at the back. Wait until they are ripe before picking them."

"to make."

After saying goodbye to the melon stall owner, the two got in the car and headed to the textile factory.

The textile factory was also in chaos at this time, because Zhao Xu and his men took over the security department of the textile factory directly under the order of the Municipal Bureau.

Although they also want to make trouble, the responsibilities of the factory security department have been greatly weakened. You have to obey the leadership of the police station, not to mention that it is the municipal bureau that is taking action now.

Although it was just official business, Zhao Xu also knew his limits. He just made a big fuss that except for the employees who went to get off work normally, the rest of the people in the textile factory were only allowed to enter and not leave.

Then he took control of the textile factory's finances and warehouse, and it seemed obvious that Zhao Xu was up to no good.

The deputy factory manager in charge of production, who was He's henchman, rode his bicycle to go to He Liansheng, who was attending a banquet at a restaurant in Beijing in the name of entertaining clients.

At this moment, He Liansheng, who was drinking happily in the box, sneezed twice in succession, and wondered in his heart if something had happened.

"Director He, you are this, how dare the Beijing Garment Factory challenge you? You really can't tell the difference between the big and small kings."

As the compliments from the people at the table rang out, the uneasiness in He Liansheng's heart disappeared completely.

"Bang~"

"Who the hell is this? He is so blind."
