Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny

Chapter 151: Testing my antique identification method

But the Dragon and Tiger Pill here is different from the one in the book. Its name is taken from the image of "dragons soaring and tigers leaping". The Yangshen Powder and Gushen Pill are prepared for the housekeeper.

As for the rest of the matters, He Yuzhu didn't want to interfere. What if others knew that he knew medical skills and came to him for treatment?

If the disease is cured, it may offend the opposing family; if the disease is not cured, it will offend the patient's family.

Because of this, He Yuzhu has not yet made public the fact that he knows medical skills. He only said that he found some medicinal food recipes when he was learning cooking. He really knows nothing about medicine, and even Gu Zhiqiu has tried many times to prove his knowledge to no avail.

However, the medicine given by He Yuzhu is indeed effective.

After the medicine was prepared, He Yuzhu put it into the space.

Looking at the time, it was already two o'clock in the morning. He Yuzhu decided to go and see that place. After all, he had never been there since he came here.

He used his lightness skills to disappear into the night.

He then found a place to put on makeup so that even people who knew him couldn't recognize his true face.

He Yuzhu walked over with a swagger, but was quickly stopped by the guards standing there.

A guard asked, "Buy or sell?"

He Yuzhu replied: "Buy!"

Hearing this, these people didn't say much. There were many people coming here to shop. "One cent!"

He Yuzhu took out a dime and handed it to the guard on duty. After receiving the money, the guard said:

"When you hear the whistle, run!"

He Yuzhu nodded and went in.

As soon as he entered the door, He Yuzhu saw a free market full of vendors setting up stalls.

There are all kinds of items, most of which are antiques and paintings, and the most crowded areas are where people are selling food, whether it is meat or grain.

The crowd was surrounded in three layers.

He Yuzhu looked around and tested his methods of identifying antiques.

He found that most of these antiques were genuine, but their values ​​varied. Despite this, they were all being sold on the ground at low prices.

He Yuzhu was not in a hurry to make a move, but instead asked, "How much is this?"

The stall owner said calmly:

"Not selling, only exchanging. As long as there's food, anything will do!"

He Yuzhu heard this and asked again:

"Is everyone like this?" The stall owner nodded and replied:

"Basically, 100% of it is for food exchange. If you don't have food, you don't have to consider anything else. Nothing is more important than food now!"

He Yuzhu heard this and said to the stall owner:

"How can you exchange your things for food?"

The stall owner was very surprised to hear this. He didn't expect that someone would actually want to exchange all the items. He immediately replied to He Yuzhu:

"That depends on what kind of food you have, coarse grains, fine grains or meat?" He Yuzhu asked with interest:

"Well, how do you calculate coarse grains, what about fine grains, and how do you calculate meat?"

The stall owner realized that this might be He Yuzhu's first time here, and since there was no one else around, he explained:

"All the goods I have here will cost 90 kilograms for coarse grains, 30 kilograms for fine grains, and 15 kilograms for meat! That's about it. If you have grain, you can exchange it naturally."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu was very surprised. He didn't expect that these items were so cheap at this time.

Yes, it is cheap - you know, the coarse grains that He Yuzhu bought outside are only 1 yuan per catty, and the fine grains are only 1 yuan per catty. According to the current exchange conditions, 8 catties of coarse grains are only worth 90 yuan at the market price, but if this pile of goods is sold directly in the market, it is worth at least hundreds or even thousands of yuan.

What's more, in the future market, these items can easily be auctioned for hundreds of millions of dollars.

This includes not only everything on this stall, but also several antiques worth tens of millions of yuan. The least valuable ones can easily sell for millions.

He Yuzhu asked:

"I don't have any food with me now. If I want to trade with you, what should I do?"

The stall owner was very happy when he heard this because he finally had something to eat. He said to He Yuzhu:

"I can pack the things first, you write down the quantity, and then we can agree on a delivery location for the transaction!"

For the stall owner, every transaction is like tearing a piece of meat from him. But he has no choice but to do so, as there is little food left at home.

He knew that these things were extremely precious, but in the current era, only food was the most precious. With food, his family could avoid hunger.

So He Yuzhu continued to ask:

"Okay, then what type of food would you like to exchange for? Whether it's coarse grains, fine grains or meat, I can provide them. Please tell me what you need, and I can bring it when the time comes!"

The stall owner was very surprised and asked:

"Do you have a lot of food? If not, you can use my other items to make up for it. Although there are some fine products here, there are more and better treasures at home that can be traded."

He knew that it was not easy to meet someone who had food. If he missed it, he didn't know when he would have the same opportunity again!

After hearing this, He Yuzhu replied:

"Okay, I'll think about it when the time comes. If any of them are suitable, I'll accept them; otherwise, I'll give up. After all, I may not like all of your treasures!"

The stall owner understands that everyone has different interests and hobbies. Some people prefer jade, some are passionate about gems or bronzes, and some are fascinated by calligraphy and painting.

Therefore, he expressed his understanding of this point, simply nodded and responded: "Okay, that's settled!"

"Where shall we go to exchange?"

The stall owner handed He Yuzhu a note and said, "See you here tomorrow. You must prepare enough food!" He Yuzhu smiled and replied, "Don't worry about that. Let alone hundreds of kilograms, it's nothing for me!" Hearing this, the stall owner showed surprise in his eyes, because now except for **, almost no one in the folk can easily take out hundreds of kilograms of food. Although some people do have surplus food on hand, they also hoard it. After all, it is unknown how long such difficult days will last. If there is a shortage of food in the future, it will be fatal. Thinking of his own family, the stall owner then asked, "How much food do you have?"

He Yuzhu heard this question and replied, "You are a bit too nosy. As long as I like something, food is not a problem. In addition to food, I also have some meat and other supplies, such as milk powder, sugar, etc. If you want, these can be used to exchange!"

After hearing this, the stall owner was shocked and thought that the man in front of him must be from a wealthy family. Especially when it comes to milk powder, this thing is very hard to get. There are still many babies in the family who are crying for food and are now barely living on coarse grains. If there is no other way, who would be willing to let the children suffer like this? The stall owner said excitedly: "Okay, okay, then let's meet at the same place tomorrow, I will not break the appointment!" He Yuzhu nodded, "It's a deal!"

He Yuzhu then stood up and prepared to go to other places to check the situation. After going around, he found that the situation was not much different from the previous one. In fact, he just wanted to test the market and had no intention of purchasing a large amount. After all, hoarding too much food would easily attract attention and cause trouble for himself. Even though he had changed his appearance now, he still didn't want to get involved in unnecessary disputes.

Just as she was about to leave, a pleading voice came, "Brother, please be kind, there is really nothing I can do. The pillar of my family is gone, and I am left alone as a widow with three hungry children..."

He Yuzhu's heart trembled slightly. He didn't expect to meet her here - Qin Huairu. She actually came to ** to buy meat.

The stall owner seemed a little impatient and said, "That's none of my business. If you want to buy something, hurry up. If not, leave." Qin Huairu was surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect the other party to have such a tough attitude, even though she had already said it very sadly.

He Yuzhu caught a glimpse of her disbelieving expression and secretly despised her. This place is unusual. Those who can trade here are not ordinary people, let alone easy characters. Moreover, this is an illegal act in itself. If the family is not extremely poor, who would come to the law?

The stall owner interrupted her again: "Are you going to buy it or not? If not, don't disturb my business. There are a lot of people waiting behind!"

"That's right, comrade, every family has financial difficulties. If you want to buy something, hurry up." Someone nearby echoed.

"If you don't want to buy it, please go back!" Qin Huairu said, "But the price of 6.8 yuan is really too high!" Everyone responded in unison:

"If you think it's expensive, you can choose not to buy it. Besides, the current price is reasonable. Some stores are quoting eight yuan per kilogram!"

"Yes, this price is really affordable!" "You're right, if you don't want to buy, get out of the way!"

Facing everyone's opinions, Qin Huairu felt a lot of pressure. She also clearly understood that the supply of meat was limited. If she bought this portion, others would lose this opportunity; however, if she went home empty-handed, she would probably be scolded by her mother-in-law.

After hesitating for a long time, Qin Huairu gritted her teeth and said firmly:

"Then I'll take the two-yuan portion!" the stall owner said helplessly.

"Two dollars is only enough for 2.5 taels and 9 grams. This one is about 3.5 taels. I'll give it to you based on this. Please take it!" Looking at the stall owner in front of her, Qin Huairu took the meat and turned away despite feeling helpless.

Recalling the past, the same two yuan could buy three pounds of pork, and the price of a pound of pork was only sixty or seventy cents at that time. Today, the price of pork has reached seven or eight yuan per pound.

He Yuzhu was thinking about another topic. He found it incredible that this woman dared to appear here. Wasn't she worried about being discovered? If she was really arrested, the consequence would be that the Jia family would face collapse.

Little did she know that in the original development trajectory of 730, Qin Huairu had never been here. Because the original "Big Stupid Zhu" had already solved all the problems for Qin Huairu, even if something happened, it was only him who was involved, not Qin Huairu. However, at this time

At this moment, He Yushui did not follow the established plot and entangled with Qin Huairu, so she had to go to the market alone to buy meat. There was no other choice.

He Yuzhu chose to remain silent about all this, and did not ask Qin Huairu any questions, and left the scene directly. In fact, the piece of meat was not indispensable to him.
