Siheyuan: Reborn in 59 years of famine, with a wife and daughter
Chapter 48: The Bangs Got Tricked
Lin Qiye actually wanted this radio ticket very much. This way, he would have collected three of the four tickets.
However, in front of Liu Haizhong, you can't show that you really want it, otherwise Liu Haizhong will be a tough guy and will definitely ask for a higher price.
Lin Qiye thought about it and said, "Master Liu, although this radio ticket is a ticket for four major items with three turns and one sound, it is far less popular than the bicycle ticket and the sewing machine ticket. I'm afraid that if you sell this thing to others for a few dollars, others may not want it. After all, whoever has money now will buy a more practical bicycle or sewing machine first, and who will buy a radio.
Besides, you've kept this thing for so long, you see it's changed color, I guess if you keep it for a while longer, it'll be infested with worms, so here's how, if you're willing, I'll give you five pounds of wild boar meat, free of charge, and you can transfer it to me, if you're not willing, then our deal won't work out."
Liu Haizhong looked at the receipt for the radio in his hand, his heart bleeding. He had originally thought of saving money to buy a radio so that he could live the high-end life of those factory leaders, listening to programs and news every morning. However, the situation simply did not allow it. The family burden was so heavy, and now the three children were not yet independent, and his wife had no job, so he was the only one supporting the family.
The radio ticket that I worked so hard to get from my leader is now of no use at all.
After thinking about it, Liu Haizhong hesitated for a moment, but was ready to make a move and said, "Qi Ye, you see, this is still too little. This is the bill for four large items. If you add a little more and give me ten more kilograms of meat, I will give it to you and I will never regret it."
Lin Qiye refused outright and said, "Master Liu, if you are willing to take the price I offer, we can make a deal. If not, I'm sorry, we can't make this deal."
"Lin Qiye, you are too mean. These are four large bills. If you don't want them, I will give them to rich people. Poor people can't afford this radio, but rich people can."
Lin Qiye smiled and said, "Master Liu, let's not say these lies. He is a rich man and his family already has a radio. You want to sell this bill to him, but he doesn't want it. If you don't want it, then okay, sorry, please go back."
As he spoke, Lin Qiye made a gesture as if he was closing a door.
Seeing that Lin Qiye was a tough nut to crack and a shrewd person, it was impossible to get more goods from him.
Liu Haizhong thought about it and had to compromise. After all, if Lin Qiye didn't want the radio ticket, and it turned out to be worthless, he would suffer a huge loss.
Liu Haizhong gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, five catties of meat is five catties of meat, but can you give me a little more fat?"
Lin Qiye understood that people these days were different from those in later generations. In these days, oil and water were scarce, and everyone preferred fat meat and disliked lean meat.
In this era, the price of fat meat is much higher than that of lean meat.
Unlike later generations, lean meat is more popular.
As for this request, it was not excessive. Lin Qiye nodded and said, "Okay, I'll cut it into fat for you. Pure fat, the kind that gives you a big mouthful of fat when you bite it.
Master Liu, go home and get the radio ticket, and I will cut some wild boar meat for you."
Liu Haizhong nodded, walked out of the West Expansion Courtyard, and went home to get the ticket for the radio.
When Aunt Liu and her three sons saw Liu Haizhong coming back, they thought that Lin Qiye had asked for too high a price and they failed to buy the wild boar meat.
Seeing Liu Haizhong's gloomy look, the four of them didn't dare to say anything, for fear of offending Liu Haizhong and getting scolded again.
After all, Liu Haizhong has a bad temper at home.
Liu Haizhong walked into the inner room, rummaged through the drawers and cabinets, then came out and walked towards the door.
Aunt Liu couldn't help but ask, "Old Liu, what are you doing?"
"What else can I do? Try to get you some meat."
As he spoke, he continued walking towards Lin Qiye's house without looking back.
Lin Qiye took out the scale at home and weighed five kilograms of wild boar fat for Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong walked out of Lin Qiye's house carrying five pounds of wild boar meat.
Walk into the house and put the meat on the table.
Aunt Liu and the three brothers Guangqi, Guangtian and Guangfu couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they saw it. After all, they rarely ate meat these days and there was a lack of oil and fat. Anyone who saw this thing would couldn't help drooling.
Liu Guangqi couldn't help but ask, "Dad, you actually bought so much, about five or six kilograms, right? How much is one kilogram?"
Liu Haizhong glanced at the few people and said in a muffled voice, "No money was spent."
"No money?" Aunt Liu was also puzzled and said, "I said that Lin Qiye is not that bad. Look at how you usually criticize others behind their backs, and yet he gave you so much meat. Other families don't have this kind of treatment..."
However, when she said this, Aunt Liu felt something was wrong. Why did their old Liu come back and rummage through the drawers just now? She thought he forgot to bring the money and came back to get it.
"Lao Liu, what did you come back for just now?"
Aunt Liu looked at Liu Haizhong strangely and asked.
Liu Haizhong said in a muffled voice.
“Take that radio ticket from before.
It's useless to leave it there anyway, so I might as well exchange it for some meat."
The family then realized that the meat was exchanged by Liu Haizhong for the radio receipt.
Aunt Liu was unhappy when she heard this and said, "Old Liu, you are so confused. These are the receipts for four big items, and you only exchanged them for such a small amount of meat? You have to know that you pestered your boss for a long time to get this receipt. It will be difficult to get a receipt if you want to buy a radio in the future."
Liu Guangqi also said: "Yes, Dad, you too, why did you let Lin Qiye set us up? We are losing money on this deal. Even if we want to exchange meat, it can't be just four or five kilograms of meat. It should be worth at least dozens of kilograms of meat."
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were also cursing their father for being stupid in their hearts, but they were not like Liu Guangqi who dared to say it out loud. After all, if they had said what Guangqi had just said, their father would probably have slapped them in the face.
In fact, Liu Haizhong also knew that this deal was a bit of a loss, but by the time he realized it, he had already agreed to Lin Qiye.
Liu Haizhong is a man who cares a lot about his reputation, so it is not easy for him to regret now. He also knows that with Lin Qiye's cleverness.
Even if he returns now, Lin Qiye will not return it to him.
Now Liu Haizhong can only swallow his bitterness and suffer in silence.
Knowing that her husband was very concerned about his reputation, Aunt Liu tried to smooth things over by saying, "Forget it, forget it. Just change it. We don't need the ticket. If we keep it, it might get worms. It's worthwhile to change it so that we don't end up with nothing after it gets worms.
I'm going to cut and fry the meat, you guys wait for me for a while."
As she spoke, Aunt Liu carried the meat and went into the kitchen, but she still sighed.
She didn't expect that Lao Liu, who was so good at calculating, would fall into Lin Qiye's trap. It seems that Lin Qiye is really not simple.
She didn't take it seriously when she defeated Yi Zhonghai before, thinking it was just luck. But now it seems that Lin Qiye is no longer the same Wuxia A'mon of the past.
