Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 156 Excited

"You'll know later." Zheng Gouzi didn't say anything, but just led everyone in, and when he came to the room Zhang Yu said, he saw a lot of things piled up on the ground.

The subordinate who spoke at the beginning was very curious. When Zheng Gouzi opened his mouth, he was the first to rush over and lifted the coverings.

Then I saw several sacks, large and small, and eggs full of betels.

He immediately became excited, his voice broke, and he shouted: "Grain, eggs, boss, it's grain, eggs."

After speaking, afraid that Zheng Gouzi could not hear clearly, he ran to his side and shouted loudly: "Boss, it's food, it's food, and there are so many eggs."

"I know it's food and eggs." Zheng Gouzi said calmly, but there was a wave of turmoil in his heart.

It seems that this friend of Xiaoyu's is not small, and he can still get such a large amount of grain and eggs in these years.

Zheng Gouzi wasn't too excited yet, but the people under him couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed forward one after another, hugging the food.

They opened one of the pockets, took out a handful of wheat from it, and stuffed it into their mouths. It was grain, it was fine grain, it was real.

Another person picked up an egg, holding it carefully in the palm of his hand like a baby.

Zheng Gouzi also let them get excited. He knew that although these brothers under him could usually bring back some money, in this year, the family was short of food.

One of them was reminded by the other brothers because his excited voice was too loud: "Keep your voice down!"

After all, their current place is not too far from Blackstone, and no one can guarantee that there are no black market people nearby.

"Got it, got it, I'll keep my voice down, I'll keep my voice down." The excited man immediately covered his mouth, and then looked around, as if he was afraid of being discovered.

His look elicited laughter from the others.

After laughing for a while, Zheng Gouzi said, "Okay, pack up quickly and take your things to us."

"Understood, boss." A group of subordinates said in unison, and then quickly disguised these things, covered them with firewood, and transported the batch of things back to the small courtyard where they usually gather.

After all the things had been transported and counted, the subordinates were hesitant to speak, and finally one of them stood up.

"Boss, me, can we buy some food and go home."

"That's right, boss, can we buy some food to go home? It doesn't need too much, just a little." Hearing someone speak, other people also echoed.

"Yes, I will exchange your share this time for food, but are you sure you want to take Xiliang home?" Zheng Gouzi did not refuse this, he knew that the brothers under him had no food in their homes.

"You must know that in the eyes of outsiders, you are a group of people without jobs. If you just bring these fine grains back, I'm afraid not only it may not help the family, but it may also cause trouble for the family."

After hearing Zheng Gouzi's words, the group of people under him didn't know what to say.

They knew that the boss was telling the truth, so they took the food back.It may bring trouble to the family, but parents can't be left alone, brothers are just so hungry.

You must know that they don't have a job, but there is no way to get money back home in an open and honest manner. It can be said that they eat and drink for free at home.

But the brother and sister-in-law said yes, but he was never deducted from the ration.

He can't be full by himself, but his family members are hungry.

"How about this, after making noodles today, you bring back a few catties of fine grains, and then I will replace part of the fine grains with coarse grains, and then you will bring the coarse grains back." Zheng Gouzi thought for a while and gave them an idea.

"Thank you, Boss. Boss is still smart." Hearing Zheng Gouzi's words, he immediately cheered. To be honest, compared with fine grains, coarse grains are more important to their family now that they have a large amount of food.

Zheng Gouzi beat the grain into flour, secretly exchanged a batch of coarse grains, and kept a little, and he sold all the rest to those who used to have family backgrounds.

Seeing what they brought out to buy food, he couldn't help but sigh: "These people are really rich!"

These things are also sold quickly. He has just made flour here, and has just released news to a few rich people.

It was wrapped up by a few family members, and those who came late did not catch up, and they all urged them to keep it for themselves next time.

After dealing with everything, he found two floor carts, with grain on the bottom and firewood on the top.

This was just right, firstly, the food was transported back, and secondly, with the firewood, Xiaoyu didn't have to worry about firewood for a long time.

When I went back, I ran into many neighbors.

"Who are you?" One of the neighbors asked curiously as he watched them pull a two-floor cart full of firewood. He remembered that Zheng Gouzi didn't usually fire?

"I went to the suburbs of Beijing with a group of brothers to do business today. I happened to see that the trees in one place were all withered, so I cut them all back. We divided the points among a group of people. I got these."

"Then why did it come here in the backyard?" The neighbor was still a little suspicious.

"Isn't it that I don't cook often? It's not very useful for these firewood to stay here. It just so happens that Xiaoyu's firewood is gone, so just bring it to him. After all, I often eat at Xiaoyu's place. "

Once you say this, the neighbors will understand.

For Zheng Gouzi's cooking skills, he is very famous in the neighborhood. The most famous thing is that he leaked the pot in order to fry a cabbage.

However, they all knew Zheng Gouzi's character, and knew that although he often went to Xiaoyu's for a meal, his extinction would not take advantage of it, and he would bring his own rations.

Didn't this send over two large carts of firewood?

If these firewood were bought with money, it would cost some money.

When he came to Zhang Yu's door, Zhang Yu hadn't come back at this time, Zheng Gouzi turned his head and knocked on Zhang Guifang's door.

"Auntie, are you home?"

"Here, it's Xiao Zheng, what are you?" In fact, at the beginning, when Zheng Gouzi was young, Zhang Guifang directly called him Gouzi, but as he got older, Zhang Guifang felt that calling him Gouzi would be better. Let him lose face, so he became Xiao Zheng.

Zheng Gouzi also feels warm about this change, Zhang Guifang and the others are good people, even taking his little self-esteem into consideration.

"I took my brother to bring some firewood to Brother Xiaoyu, but when I came here, I found that Brother Xiaoyu was not at home. Do you have the key to Brother Xiaoyu?"

"Yes, yes, wait a minute, I'll get it for you." Hearing Zheng Gouzi's words, Zhang Guifang hurried into the house to get the spare key.
