Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 114 Xu Wood was annoyed and pretended to be drunk

Xu Wood happened to have nothing to do today, so he came out of the unit and came to the meat stall.

The meat stall that no one visited before had many people queuing up today.

As I walked closer I heard them say.

"Those enemy agents were so damn frightened that I couldn't eat meat for more than a month."

"Yeah, I'm really greedy for this. I have to cut a piece of pork to satisfy my craving today."

When Xu Wood heard this, his nose was so angry that he twisted his nose. It seems that this news must be true. The swine fever thing is actually false. No wonder no pigs have been seen with swine fever in the capital for so long. .

Xu Wood asked the boss who was cutting the meat: "How much does a pound of pork cost now?"

"Fifty cents a pound."

"What's so expensive? You mean 4 cents? It was only cents two months ago!" Xu Wood was surprised.

"I lied to you. Now the price has increased to 5 cents. Isn't it true that swine fever is fake news?"

"I thought the news in the newspaper was fake news. So is swine fever really an enemy agent sabotaging the fake news?"

"Yes, some enemy agents didn't want us to live a good life, so they secretly spread the news that there was swine fever, and they also made some fake pork. So when we first officially started, we thought we really had swine fever."

The stall owner said: "After a period of time, I noticed something unusual, and then I felt something was wrong. After investigation, the police comrades saw through their lies."

"What are they planning? Damn it." someone asked.

The stall owner said: "Aren't you just trying to make money? As soon as the swine fever came out, the price of pork plummeted. They secretly bought the pigs, otherwise the police comrades wouldn't be able to find out what they were doing behind the scenes."

"Can you still make money like this?"

"Why not? Do you know how much a pound of pigs cost now?"

"How many?"

The stall owner said: "Before the news was published, no one wanted it for 1 cents per pound. Now it has gone up to 5 cents. Otherwise, how could pork be sold so expensively?"

The meat buyer said: "Then if anyone now owns a breeding farm and feeds dozens of pigs, wouldn't he make a fortune?"

"Yes, but do you have it?"

"You're kidding, how can I have the money to open a breeding farm?"

Xu Wood's face was livid with anger, thinking that He Yuzhu had bought the yard and there were more than 20 pigs, so He Yuzhu didn't lose money this time, but would make a lot of money?

Those are 24 big fat pigs. They originally weighed more than 80 kilograms. After more than a month of breeding, haven't they all reached the standard that can be sold?

Although Xu Wood's plan was discovered by He Daqing at the beginning, he sold all the pigs to He Yuzhu, so his plan could be carried out smoothly, but he still tricked He Yuzhu.

Although he did not get any benefit, he was still very happy because He Yuzhu lost money.

But today I suddenly received the news that swine fever is a rumor. Doesn't that mean that He Yuzhu will make a lot of money?

I originally wanted to see He Yuzhu's joke, but it's only been more than a month and the pigs haven't started to be sold yet. I can already predict that He Yuzhu will make money, and make a lot of money. Doesn't this mean that he is the joke?

You must know that when He Yuzhu bought pigs, the price was 50 cents per catty. Now the price of live pigs is more than cents. He Yuzhu directly made more than % of the profit.

Xu Wood did a little calculation in his mind and found that He Yuzhu could earn two to three hundred yuan this time.

Xu Wood's heart bleeds secretly, this damn stupid Zhu, he forced the money into his hand.

Xu Wood couldn't wait to give himself a few big mouths. He was really angry.

In the tavern, Xu Huizhen flipped through the newspaper that had just been delivered today, and soon saw the official refutation of the rumor. Then, with an ecstatic face on her face, she ran to the backyard with the newspaper.

"Brother Zhuzi, good news, the swine fever is fake."

"What? Swine fever is fake?"

"Yeah, you saw it was all published in the newspaper."

He Yuzhu took the newspaper and quickly read the official report. He was completely relieved now. No wonder he hadn't heard any news about pigs suffering from swine fever in the capital for so long.

It turned out that the swine fever was fake, which made me worry in vain for more than a month.

Xu Huizhen asked: "How many pounds can those pigs weigh now?"

He Yuzhu said: "I took a look the day before yesterday, and they were basically around 120 kilograms."

Today's pigs are not white-striped pigs, but large black pigs. Due to the different breeds and the current shortage of concentrated feed, pigs can generally be slaughtered when they weigh more than 110 kilograms.

The official food station divides pigs into four grades, with pigs weighing 110 to 130 kilograms being classified as C, and pigs weighing 160 kilograms and above being the special grade with the highest prices.

In other words, the more than 20 pigs have now reached the standards for slaughter, but the price is the lowest level.

"Does that mean they can all be sold now?"

He Yuzhu shook his head: "You can make about 300 yuan from selling it now, but if you keep it for another month or two, you will make more by then."

Both of them were so happy that they went to Zuojiazhuang to inspect the pigs. Xu Hui was really happy to see the pigs eating well and sleeping well. They were just like picking them up for free.

"Are you going to feed the pigs again after feeding this batch?"

He Yuzhu said: "The next piglets will be kept and fed by ourselves. Anyway, we produce and sell them ourselves, so the profits will be greater."

He Yuzhu did not get involved in this industry because he disliked the trouble, but now it is time for a public-private partnership, and the business will no longer be able to continue.

He Yuzhu discovered that there were no restrictions on raising pigs in rural areas. Restrictions would have to wait until 58, when all pigs were communes, before farmers would be restricted from raising pigs.

He Yuzhu plans to continue the breeding business until 1958, not only raising pigs, but also other livestock.

"Okay, then you won't even kill the pig yourself, right?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "Isn't this simple?"

He didn't ask Dayong to do the killing, and he didn't want any wages, so why bother Dayong? He Yuzhu taught Dayong how to kill pigs, so it was more convenient to just kill them himself.

At night, He Yuzhu rarely returned to the courtyard.

He Daqing and Wen Yuping were surprised when they brought the meat and wine into the house. He Yuzhu usually didn't come back, and even if he came back, he wouldn't stay at home for dinner. He would just visit for a while and then go back.

He Daqing asked: "What's going on today?"

He Yuzhu put the things on the round table, greeted the two of them, and Wen Yuping poured them a glass of water.

He Yuzhu took two sips before saying: "Did you know that the news about swine fever is a rumor spread by enemy agents? They want to create panic, and it is completely false."

"Is there such a thing?" He Daqing asked. He Yuzhu explained the matter again, and He Daqing said: "Now it's better, don't worry, you can make a fortune with more than 20 pigs."

"Yes, I still have to thank Lao Xu for giving me this opportunity." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

He Daqing understood in an instant that this was an irony, so he said: "Yes, you have to thank Lao Xu. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have this opportunity, so I came here today to treat them to a drink." ?”

"Yes, I want to toast him a few more glasses today and thank him deeply."

At this time, Wen Yuping was still confused, and said with a big belly: "What's wrong with you two? Then Lao Xu obviously wanted to cheat me last time!"

He Daqing gave her a roll of his eyes and said, "We are just here to make him angry."

"What do I mean, why don't you go invite him?"

"I'll go and invite it myself." He Yuzhu said and went to the backyard. He Daqing put the braised pork on a plate and put the cooked dishes on the pot to heat up.

When He Yuzhu came to the backyard, he didn't knock on the door of the west wing. He just shouted: "Lao Xu, is Lao Xu at home? I have some great news for you."

Unexpectedly, Liu Haizhong was the one who came out first. He frowned and asked, "Zhuzi, what are you so happy about? I remember you bought more than 20 pigs. Now that there is swine fever everywhere, how can you be happy?"

This is deliberately adding salt to He Yuzhu's wounds. You must know that Liu Haizhong also borrowed 100 yuan from Liu Haizhong before, and Liu Haizhong didn't like anything about He Yuzhu.

He just wanted to make He Yuzhu feel uncomfortable whenever he could. Although he didn't do anything excessive, he usually looked like his nose was not his nose, his eyes were not his eyes, and he didn't have a good face.

He Yuzhu said with a smile: "You don't know yet, that swine fever is fake news spread by enemy agents. They deliberately caused panic in society, and then bought big pigs at low prices in order to make a fortune, but they were discovered by the police comrades. , all of them were arrested.”

"What? Is the swine fever news false?" Liu Haizhong asked in surprise.

"Yes, the price of pigs is now higher than before."

"Then now you're going to make a fortune, that's 24 pigs."

He Yuzhu said: "Yes, I hope so. The three big sows are also pregnant and have given birth to a litter of 8 piglets. Pig raising will get better and better in the future."

"Then you've made a lot of money." Liu Haizhong said enviously.

"I didn't make much money, just three or four hundred yuan, so I came over to thank Lao Xu."

Looking at He Yuzhu's mean smile, Liu Haizhong was so angry that he wanted to hit someone. This was so outrageous. He thought about and looked forward to seeing He Yuzhu's jokes every day.

Unexpectedly, in just a short period of time, He Yuzhu would earn another three to four hundred yuan. The most important thing was that Xu Wood gave it to Shazhu.

Liu Haizhong was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. He nodded and said, "That's good. You are so lucky."

He Yuzhu said: "Uncle Liu, let's have some drinks together tonight. I brought meat and vegetables today just to thank Lao Xu. You can also come over and have a drink with my dad. We can be happy together."

I'm glad you big-headed guy, Liu Haizhong feels that if he stays with He Yuzhu again, he will definitely faint from anger. How come this damn stupid Zhu has such incredible luck?

Liu Haizhong would rather eat sorghum rice than drink Shazhu's wine. He quickly waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I still won't go."

After saying that, he turned around and went home. He Yuzhu ignored him no matter what he called him from behind.

Xu Wood heard He Yuzhu's shouting in the house. Standing behind the door, listening to their conversation, his heart was turned upside down.

Why is He Yuzhu treating himself to a meal? He is obviously here to show off his power, but he still wants to go out to congratulate him. After all, he said he didn't know before and took it out.

He opened the door and walked out, asking, "Zhuzi, are you getting rich?"

"Yes, thanks to you, I made a fortune this time. I came here specifically to thank you today."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he took Xu Wood's arm and walked out.

Xu Wood groaned secretly in his heart, He Yuzhu came here sincerely to cause trouble.

But he couldn't say anything more. He had said with confidence before that the batch of pigs Wu Mancang sold to He Yuzhu was a coincidence. He had no idea about it, and now he could only congratulate He Yuzhu for making money against his will.

Xu Wood felt guilty if he drank this drink, and he didn't contribute anything.

But He Yuzhu still dragged Xu Wood to his home and pressed him on the bench. Looking at the delicious meat and vegetables in front of him, Xu Wood had no appetite at all.

The wine in my mouth was bitter, and even eating meat felt like chewing wax.

He Daqing and He Yuzhu both saw it in their eyes and laughed in their hearts, letting Xu Wood do the trick behind his back. You are not a public security officer. To solve the case, you need to pay attention to evidence, as long as you have suspicion in your heart.

Both of them said that this thing would make a lot of money, and they were grateful to Xu Wood's old cousin for being so generous and bringing the profitable business to his door.

The two took turns to persuade him to drink. Xu Wood was also very depressed and drank too much without knowing it.

Can you not drink too much? It’s easy to get drunk as long as you have something on your mind. Xu Wood is full of pain and has nowhere to talk.

Originally, I wanted to trick Shazhu and pass the risk of breeding to Shazhu. When the epidemic spread all over the capital, all these pigs would need to be buried, causing Shazhu to lose a lot of money.

Even the house I bought cannot raise pigs for many years because the pigs I raised were infected with swine fever, and the house will be abandoned.

But after all calculations, the epidemic in Northeast China turned out to be fake. Instead of losing money, He Yuzhu would make a fortune.

Don't think that three or four hundred yuan is very little. An ordinary employee only earns more than 20 yuan a month. This is more than a year's salary for one person.

The pigs haven't been sold yet. When they are sold in a while, the price may be higher. After all, there are too few pigs on the market now.

He Yuzhu spoke to Liu Haizhong in the backyard, which was heard by many people. Everyone was laughing at Shazhu before because he finally looked away and was fooled. This time, he would lose money raising pigs.

But he didn't expect that in just one month, Silhouette would turn around and turn a loss into a profit, making a lot of money right before his eyes.

This matter quickly spread throughout the courtyard.

As soon as Aunt Yi told the news, Yi Zhonghai's face suddenly turned livid. She was really angry. She thought that Silly Pig would lose money this time, but she didn't expect that she could still make money.

"This silly pillar is really lucky."

"Yeah, don't get angry with him. You see, he is so lucky, otherwise he will cheat us of our money."

"What do you know? This stupid pillar is a scourge. As long as he is around, this courtyard cannot live in peace."

Aunt Yi sighed, this Yi Zhonghai is really stubborn. He really doesn't have a long memory just thinking about fighting with He Daqing and his son. Thousands of dollars have been spent on this, and the family's financial resources are almost exhausted.

In the west wing room, Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she didn't even eat when she heard that Silly Zhu had made money. She would just sit and curse.

In the main room, Xu Wood was drunk with wine, and then he fell asleep directly on the wine table.

He Daqing said: "This old Xu's fighting ability is not good. He just drank too much and got drunk."
