The Great Era of Siheyuan

"In that case, let's finalize this deal. I hope to be paid every day. For now, we are only providing vegetables, but rice and flour will take some time. It's a small business, so we don't sell on credit! That should be okay, right?"

When Li Wenqiang saw the smile on Li Huaide's face, he knew that the matter was settled. The reason why he deliberately set the price at one dollar was to leave enough profit for him. He would not agree so quickly if he was not well fed.

People who eat alone often don't have a good ending. There is no end to making money. He just needs to earn the share that he deserves.

Just like many bosses who deliberately donate money, they still want to do it even though they know the money will not reach those in need. If they don’t feed the jackals, how can they have the chance to make money?

Three thousand kilograms per day, he doubted whether the steel rolling mill could handle it because they had their own logistics supply department.

"Of course, no problem. I think your proposal is good. It's better for everyone to pay for vegetables every day. Then it's settled. I'll pay you in cash after weighing every day. By the way, I still don't know your name after so long. My name is Li Dehuai, currently the deputy director of the steel rolling mill. What's your name?"

Li Huaide's attitude was very different from before. He had a smile on his face and called Li Wenqiang "little brother" all the time very smoothly. It was obvious that the benefits that Li Wenqiang brought to him were enough to make him change his attitude.

"Li Wenqiang, please take good care of my business in the future!"

Seeing that Li Huaide agreed to the settlement method, Li Wenqiang smiled. If he wanted monthly settlement, then he would have to reconsider whether to do this business.

It's a seller's market now. If he wasn't worried about the risk of loose goods in the market, he would sell vegetables for one dollar at a time.

"No, no, we should take care of each other. You can't judge a person by his appearance, little brother! It's not an ordinary person who can get so many things. I wonder how you plan to deliver the goods?"

Li Huaide is very concerned about this matter now. A business worth thousands of dollars a day would be tempting for anyone. It is only because Li Huaide has seen some big things that he did not lose his composure. If it were someone else, he would have gone crazy a long time ago.

"There is an abandoned courtyard house near Jiaodaokou Street behind Yuan'en Temple Hutong in Nanluoguxiang. I heard from others that it is the site of a steel mill. I will leave the goods there tomorrow night, and you can send someone to pick them up the day after tomorrow morning. I hope you will not have any idea of ​​finding out the source of the materials. If you are discovered, the transaction will end immediately. If anything goes wrong, you will bear the consequences yourself."

Li Wenqiang thought about it and came up with a method that he thought was barely acceptable. He could not transport 3,000 kilograms of vegetables by himself, so he had to rely on the steel mill's trucks to transport them.

"The yard you mentioned is indeed the steel mill. Don't worry, we have a normal business relationship. I don't want anything to happen to you."

When Li Huaide heard his last sentence, his eyes narrowed noticeably.

The only people he could think of who could get so much food at this time were the grain stations and the army. However, the allocation of materials was now directly arranged by the leaders above. He didn't want to find out who was behind Li Wenqiang. It was good for everyone to make money together. It would not benefit anyone to get to the bottom of it.

"Then happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Li Wenqiang smiled and stretched out his hand, and shook hands tightly with Li Huaide. Both of them were satisfied with the cooperation.

"The water is coming! What are you doing?"

When Xu Damao came back, he saw the two of them holding hands tightly with smiles on their faces, and felt a little confused.

The two of them were at loggerheads just now, and he thought he was in trouble, but unexpectedly, while he was pouring a glass of water, the two of them were chatting and laughing together, without noticing that he was deliberately sent away.

"Xu Damao, I wonder what your relationship with this brother is? If you have such a good brother, you should have introduced him to me a long time ago. Let's get to know each other more in the future!"

Li Huaide looked at him with a smile, which was apparently a courtesy, but secretly he was trying to find out the relationships behind Li Wenqiang.

Li Wenqiang understood and did not stop him. Anyway, with the little information he had, he could check it thoroughly in no time as long as he wanted, and then he could think of a way to make a talisman.

"Really? He is the friend who gave me wine last time. We are from the same hospital. If I had known that you like him so much, I would have introduced him to you a long time ago. Why would I wait until today?"

Xu Damao said exaggeratedly, his mouth was crooked with smile, and he was very grateful in his heart. Fortunately, Li Wenqiang did not make the factory director angry, otherwise he would be in trouble.

"Oh~! Really? It turns out that the medicinal wine you brought last time was also brought by this brother. What a coincidence! I was just thinking about that bottle of wine that was almost finished and couldn't get it! It seems that I have a place to drink in the future!"

Li Huaide pretended to be surprised.

"If Director Li likes it, I'll ask Damao to send you two bottles next time. I still have some here. If it takes a while, even if you want to drink it, you can only go to the Soviet big brother!"

Li Wenqiang said this very casually, inadvertently revealing the news that his wine would be easy to sell.

"Really? Wasn't this wine said to be foreign? How come it was sold to the Soviet Union?"

When Li Huaide heard the news, his mind instantly turned several corners and he carefully analyzed the information in this sentence.

Foreign countries, the Soviet Union, plus the batch of grain and this batch of medicinal wine just now, the person in front of him seems to have a more complicated background than he imagined.

"It's because the Russians pay more! This wine is just circulated here and will be sent to the Soviet Union later. It will be sold for 500 rubles a bottle there.

I saw that Damao and I got along well, so I gave him a few bottles as a gift. I didn't expect Damao to send the wine to you. If I had known earlier, I would have given you a few more bottles."

Li Wenqiang pretended to be surprised.

"Really? In that case, we still took advantage of Damao, hahahaha!"

Li Huaide laughed a few times, but he kept calculating in his mind how much money five hundred rubles was worth.

Finally, he came to the conclusion that a bottle cost about 200 yuan, and he was a little scared. Even though he was the deputy director, he couldn't get as much money as he wanted. 200 yuan was equivalent to a month's salary.

"There's no such thing as taking advantage of it. As long as you like it, that's fine. I'll ask Damao to send you two bottles later. It's settled. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Remember to ask someone to come and pick up the things the day after tomorrow!"

Li Wenqiang smiled, said hello and left!

"Little brother, take care, come over for tea when you have time!"

Li Huaide hurriedly followed him and sent him downstairs. After the people left, the smile on Li Huaide's face faded and he asked Xu Damao.

"Da Mao, what does this person do? Do you have a good relationship with him?"

"He used to be a scrap collector, but then he suddenly changed and became very powerful. Director, is there any problem?"

Xu Damao said softly.

"A junk collector? A big change? How is his relationship with Shazhu?"

Li Huaide suddenly remembered that he and Xu Damao were from the same courtyard, and asked with some concern.

"Leader, don't worry about this. Sha Zhu has caused him a lot of trouble. You can deal with Sha Zhu however you want. He will definitely have no objection."

Xu Damao patted his chest and assured.

"That's fine! Xu Damao, I have a task for you. Can you help me get more of the wine from last time? I want to buy some to give away. Can you help me ask him how much he can sell it for!"

Li Huaide thought of the price Li Wenqiang had just mentioned, and instantly felt that the price Xu Damao had told him was completely acceptable. Compared with the prices abroad, his bottle of twenty or thirty yuan was really just a drop in the bucket.

"I can't make the decision on this issue, but I have a good relationship with him. I'll ask him for you when I get back!"

When Xu Damao heard this, he immediately twitched his eyebrows. This surprise was really unexpected.

"I'm not just asking. This must be done! Understand?"

Li Huaide tapped his fingers heavily on the desk a few times and said seriously.

"Yes, yes, I will definitely do it. Leader, please see. If everything is ok, I will leave first!"

Xu Damao smiled flatteringly, his eyes narrowed.

"Go!"
