Siheyuan: Don't mess with me, I just want to be a free fish

Chapter 540 Brother Dong, someone is asking about you
Li Weidong faced the questioning look of the old lady and Zhang Xiuzhen and said calmly: "Xiaobai has a little stomach discomfort, so I sent her home to rest."

"Uncomfortable stomach? What's going on?"

The old lady may have been too concerned, so she asked the question to the end.

"I don't know either. I wanted to send her to the drugstore to have a look. She said she was fine. Maybe the roast duck she had for lunch was too greasy."

Li Weidong said confidently.

"Mom, don't ask. I know what's going on. You should go and take a rest."

A flash of understanding flashed across Zhang Xiuzhen's face. She first explained to the old lady, and then said to Li Weidong.

"Ok."

Li Weidong nodded and readily accepted the suggestion.

Faintly, she heard Zhang Xiuzhen seeming to be telling the old lady something like girls would be fine after they got married.

Li Weidong returned to the north room and lay down, and his consciousness entered the game farm.

Although nowadays, the game farm seems to be helping him less and less, he still comes in every day. Not to mention other things, just the three cultivated fields are full of various grains, herbs, and Fruit trees make people feel happy.

This is his biggest trump card, enough to allow him to make a comeback in adversity.

After observing the conditions of the fields, Li Weidong entered the farm warehouse.

Nowadays, there are more and more things in the warehouse, and it is no longer as empty as before, but most of them are grains. Even if he does not use energy to ripen, as time goes by, the grains in the fields are still harvested continuously.

After accumulating some more, you can stop for a while and directly plant more profitable herbs, such as ginseng and the like.

However, Li Weidong did not come in here to count grains. His eyes quickly locked on a corner of the warehouse, where there was a shelf of ancient books. He had picked it up by accident, but it was not an antique, it could only be regarded as an old object.

He didn't build such a shelf in the warehouse just for collection, and the items on it were not antiques, but pieces of golden objects.

These golden objects come in different sizes, but in comparison, the smaller ones take up more space.

Counting them carefully, there are twenty large ones and fifty small ones.

Their names are respectively large yellow croaker and small yellow croaker.

These were what Li Weidong picked up under a certain courtyard last time, and it was just a matter of convenience. Compared with the remaining quantity, what he picked up was nothing at all.

Li Weidong didn't feel any guilt about taking advantage of others. He happened to need it and he happened to have the opportunity, so he took it.

In this way, there will be no need to create extra branches in the future when the farm reclaims land.

One large yellow croaker is equivalent to the weight of ten small yellow croakers.

Calculated in this way, he now owns the equivalent of 250 small yellow croakers.

According to the current market price, each small yellow croaker is about 240 yuan, but this is the price on the market, because gold is not circulating in the market now, so you either have to go to a bank to sell it, or you can exchange it yourself on the black market.

No matter when, gold is the most valuable thing in the eyes of ordinary people.

Therefore, the price on the black market is slightly higher.

But there are also risks.

Even if calculated based on 240 yuan per small yellow croaker, it is equivalent to 6 yuan.

What is this concept?
Calculating based on the monthly salary of an ordinary worker of 30 yuan, if you don’t eat or drink, it will be 360 ​​yuan a year. Without taking other factors into account, it will take 160 years to earn it.

Therefore, Li Weidong is definitely considered a rich man now.

Unfortunately, he had no intention of selling the gold. These things were only used by him to cultivate fields.

At the moment, neither gold nor money is as important as food.

As long as there is food in hand, there will be no panic in my heart.

At the beginning, although there were many valuable items such as jewelry and even two boxes of antiques under the courtyard, Li Weidong did not move them, not because he was afraid of being discovered, but because it was unnecessary.

The gold wine currently available is enough to sustain it for a long time.

After all, land reclamation is not just about having gold. According to his previous observations and inferences, you have to continue farming and gain experience. Only when this condition is met can you continue to cultivate fields.

Perhaps consuming energy can speed up the process, but Li Weidong did not do so. The main reason is that the situation now is completely different from when he first arrived. At that time, in order to eat a pumpkin, he could only bask in the sun desperately and save bit by bit. With energy.

But now, the food accumulated in the warehouse alone is enough to feed his family for a long, long time.

There is enough food, no shortage of money, and three fields are enough, so Li Weidong has no urgency and just lets nature take its course.

Moreover, energy can be saved without consuming it, and it will not depreciate, so it is better to keep it for emergencies.

So Li Weidong actually felt satisfied at this moment.

Just when he left the warehouse and was about to do the cropping technique twice, he suddenly felt someone calling him outside, and his consciousness immediately returned to his original body.

At the beginning, when his consciousness entered the farm, only physical touch could wake him up. Later, as his perception continued to grow stronger, now as long as someone calls, his subconscious will wake him up.

"Second brother."

After Li Weidong woke up, he looked at the dissatisfied Li Xueru in front of him.

"what?"

"Dad said, you guys went to eat roast duck for lunch, I want to eat roast duck too."

Li Xueru felt aggrieved, why didn't he take her there at noon?
In fact, her original opinion was not so big. After all, she also knew that her parents and Li Weidong went to the restaurant today to discuss the marriage between her second brother and Sister Xiaobai. Although she was occasionally a little willful, she was not ignorant.

But unfortunately, after her father woke up that day, he ordered her to get some water, saying that the roast duck for lunch was a bit salty.

The little girl was about to drool at that moment.

That's roast duck.

She remembered passing by Quanjude once, and was attracted by the fragrance inside, and finally left.

So she dreamed of going to Quanjude to eat roast duck.

But she also knew that a roast duck inside cost about ten yuan, which was too expensive.

This much money, converted into food, would be enough to feed the family for a long time.

Thinking about the past, before my second brother came to the city, because the eldest brother was fighting outside all day long, he had to pay for medical expenses. My mother was in poor health and took a lot of medicine every year. My father had to occasionally support his grandparents in the countryside. .

At that time, Li Shuqun was the only one working in the family, which meant that one person was supporting the whole family.

Therefore, although her family could barely feed themselves at that time, it was impossible to expect a better life.

She remembered clearly that her family's living conditions had improved, and she was able to eat white flour steamed buns every day and meat occasionally, all only after her second brother came to the city.

Even she and her third brother had more snacks.

Canned food, fruits, biscuits, peach cakes, these luxurious things that ordinary people have at home can also be tasted from time to time.

Even if she didn't say it, Li Xueru was still very grateful to the second brother in front of her.

She came to see her second brother now either to settle a score or because she was greedy.

"Oh, roast duck, I'd like to bring one back for you and Xiao Bin, but it's Lao Li who's treating us at noon, and you know he has to face the crowd, otherwise he won't have to go to Quanjude for a family dinner? What should I say? If you pack a roast duck, he will fall out at once. Believe it or not? If you really want to eat roast duck, I will take you and Xiaobin to eat it after a while.

Also, what do you want from me? "

Li Weidong first provoked the relationship between father and daughter, then promised the little girl, and finally asked about the topic.

Zhang Xiuzhen was guarding the door. If Li Xueru had nothing serious to do, she would not let Li Xueru disturb him.

So this little girl is pretending to be a public servant.

Don't worry about anything serious, just talk about your own affairs first.

"It's Liu Guangtian who's looking for you."

Li Xueru pursed her lips, but her eyes still flashed with joy. It was obvious that Li Weidong's promise just now satisfied her.

"Liu Guangtian?"

Li Weidong nodded and got out of bed.

Since the last time Liu Guangtian came to quietly report that his eldest brother gave Qin Jingru a pack of medicine and conspired to 'frame' him, he never approached him again.

This guy seems to have grown up all of a sudden since the second uncle fell ill and took over the shift in the factory.

Both his personality and his life trajectory are very different from his previous life, and he has taken a different path.

Therefore, in Li Weidong's view, Liu Guangtian would definitely not come to visit him now if he had nothing to do with him.

"Yes, she said she would wait for you at the door."

Li Xueru nodded.

Li Weidong put on his coat, said hello to Zhang Xiuzhen, and walked out of the yard.

Outside the door, Liu Guangtian was lowering his head and rubbing his toes on a protruding stone. He seemed to notice someone coming out and immediately raised his head.

"Brother."

When Liu Guangtian saw Li Weidong coming, he immediately took two steps forward and shouted respectfully.

"Talk while you walk."

Li Weidong didn't ask anything, so he walked out along the alley.

Liu Guangtian was waiting for him at the door. Apparently he had something to say that he couldn't say in the courtyard, or he didn't want people in the courtyard to see it.

So Li Weidong satisfied him directly.

When Liu Guangtian saw this, a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes.

He is very aware of the 'hatred' between his family and Li Weidong. Although the one in the family is completely responsible for it, Li Weidong has not killed his family. This can be seen from the fact that his family can still live peacefully in the courtyard.

With Li Weidong's current status, if he really wants to take revenge, he doesn't even need to take action himself. With just a hint, countless people will clean up his house. He will definitely not be able to keep his job in the steel rolling mill, and even his whole family will be kicked out of the courtyard. .

Moreover, his father's current fate was entirely his own fault. It was not that he was unfilial and deliberately thought the worst about his father. But at the beginning, there was no enmity between the Li family and his family, and Li Shuqun even helped him.

But when Li Shuqun was arrested and the Li family was in trouble, his father was the first to jump out and convene a hospital-wide meeting to drive the Li family out of the courtyard.

What kind of behavior is this?
Not to mention repaying kindness with hatred, the key is to force people to death.

So afterward, no matter how the Li family retaliated against his family, he felt it was normal.

But they just didn't do that.

At least that's how it seemed to him.

As for his eldest brother losing his job, he naturally knows the truth, but he has not had a good relationship with his eldest brother since he was a child. When the other party was proud, he did not give him any benefit. Of course, what does it have to do with him when he is unlucky?
Even now the two brothers are incompatible.

This is why when I knew that my eldest brother was going to do something bad, I informed Li Weidong immediately.

In his concept of life and thinking, he is not wrong.

"Brother Dong, someone in the factory has been asking about you recently."

Liu Guangtian followed Li Weidong, half a body behind, and whispered while there was no one around.

"Inquiring about me? Who is it? What did I ask you about?"

Li Weidong paused and asked directly.

Because of the steel rolling mill, Li Weidong suddenly thought of what Shazhu told him last time.

That time, Silly Zhu told him that while he was cooking in the canteen, he overheard Deputy Director Li seeming to be talking about a farm.

Because Deputy Director Li was secretive at the time, Shazhu only heard the word "farm" and stopped talking about it immediately after seeing him. There was clearly something wrong with this.

After all, there is no need to avoid him when talking about normal things, even if it's about the farm or something like that.

So Shazhu became interested at that time.

It's not that he wants to pry into Deputy Director Li's secret, but that he is a little sensitive to the word farm, because Li Weidong works on the farm, which is an instinctive association.

Then he told Li Weidong.

At that time, Li Weidong didn't take it seriously. Even if Deputy Director Li mentioned the farm, he didn't necessarily mean it to him.

Unexpectedly, Liu Guangtian came to him secretly today and actually mentioned that someone in the steel rolling mill was inquiring about him. What was he trying to do?
Moreover, there are also things to be careful about when looking for Liu Guangtian.

After all, as long as you look around, you will know that in this courtyard, Shazhu has the best relationship with Li Weidong, while Liu Guangtian's family has a deep hatred for Li Weidong.

Asking Si Zhu about Li Weidong's affairs will only serve to alert the enemy.

But if you look for information from Liu Guangtian, there will be no further trouble.

After all, in the eyes of normal people, Liu Guangtian should be eager for Li Weidong to be in bad luck, so how could he possibly file a complaint?
"It's a worker named Wang Dayou from the fourth workshop. This guy usually hangs out and is a bit wild. He asked me to inquire about your relationship with Qin Huairu."

At the end of his speech, Liu Guangtian became obviously cautious.

Because a lot of things were there, why did Qin Huairu transform from a lathe apprentice to the most popular quality inspector in the workshop?
Just because of her dead husband Jia Xudong?

Or is it because of how pretty she is and how big her butt is?
If that were the case, she wouldn't have been an apprentice for so many years.

So even in Liu Guangtian's eyes, Qin Huairu became a quality inspector only because she embraced Li Weidong's lap.

Of course, Liu Guangtian is not stupid. Even if he knew it in his heart, he would definitely not tell it outside.

A look that I understand.

Li Weidong could sense Liu Guangtian's emotions and just glanced at him lightly without explaining much.

The reason why Qin Huairu became a quality inspector was because he was promoted by Deputy Factory Director Li. What does it have to do with him?
He had never approached Deputy Director Li about Qin Huairu's matter. Instead, he had requested something from him as a sign of his own initiative.

Li Weidong was too lazy to explain.

After all, the more you explain this kind of thing, the more guilty it appears.

However, the news that Liu Guangtian would reveal now still made Li Weidong think about it.
