The Great Era of Siheyuan

"come in!"

Seeing that Li Wenqiang was taking a long time to come in at the door, Cui Wenfeng couldn't help but urge him.

"The folks here are all very welcoming. You should know why I came to you this time, so I won't say more. As long as it's a large livestock you can get, whether it's a pig, cow, sheep, or other animals, I want at least one male and one female, or a breeding male and several females. The price is negotiable!"

Li Wenqiang said bluntly after coming in.

"You want to raise yourself so you can breed later, right?"

After hearing what he said, Cui Wenfeng understood what he meant, but the question in his mind was that the steel rolling mill could just buy directly from the commune, why was it doing it in such a sneaky way.

In his opinion, Li Wenqiang was simply sent by the steel mill to buy piglets for secret breeding. Otherwise, who would come to buy so many animals when people were unable to eat enough?

"Yes, can you get it?"

After Li Wenqiang finished speaking, he stared at him. If he couldn't handle it here, then he could only think of another way.

"I can find a way to get a few pigs and sheep out. It's okay if one or two piglets are missing. But it's impossible to get cows. Every cow has been confirmed and registered by the commune. If one is missing, it will be a big deal."

Cui Wenfeng said very bluntly.

"I'll give you extra money. If you can do it, I'll give you fifty dollars more for each cow."

Li Wenqiang said lightly.

When Cui Wenfeng heard the additional fifty yuan, he was a little tempted, but this amount of money was not enough for him to take the risk, so he shook his head and explained.

"It's not about money, it's about the organization not allowing it. Every cow is a very important labor force, and it would be troublesome if one was missing!"

"Add a hundred dollars! In addition to the price of a cow, I will give you an extra hundred dollars. This money is for you personally. I only want three cows, one male and two females. It's up to you whether to do it or not. If not, I'll find someone else."

It's troublesome, but it can be done! Li Wenqiang didn't want to listen to what he said about the bullshit trouble, he just wanted to solve the problem quickly.

In fact, pork nowadays is not very delicious, it smells very fishy. In the past, most people dug a pit and raised pigs in the toilet. It is only in recent years that things have improved a little, and people know how to build a pig pen and cut some grass to feed the pigs.

Eating safe meat has almost become an obsession for Li Wenqiang. Even though he is so rich, it is still difficult to get a piece of meat, which is really frustrating.

"Wait! Actually, this is not to say that there is no room for negotiation. Yesterday, a cow with a broken leg came to the slaughterhouse. If you want it, I can get it for you. I'll think of a way to get the remaining two cows. Pigs and sheep are five dollars per pound, and I can get you three of each. As for the others, you can only try your luck. If you're lucky, you can get two donkeys or horses! Let me make it clear first, this meat is not cheap, five dollars per pound!"

When Cui Wenfeng heard that Li Wenqiang was willing to give so much money, he immediately became excited. One cow cost one hundred yuan, and three cows cost three hundred yuan, which was enough to buy a half-grown cow. There was no need to refuse the money that was picked up for free. It would be against one's conscience if one did not make the money.

"Money is not a problem, but the tares must be removed when selling. I only want one male and two females of each kind."

Li Wenqiang reminded.

If he were buying by size, he certainly wouldn't care about these things. But if he didn't tell me, by the time he received the goods, one animal would probably have been fed thirty or forty kilograms of water. Not to mention whether the animal could survive, the extra money alone could buy another one.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. But brothers should be clear about accounts. Since you said so, I'll take your 200 yuan deposit first. We'll do the transaction outside Dahongmen tomorrow night. No one will be waiting after 8 pm. If you don't come, I won't return the deposit to you!"

Cui Wenfeng smiled and nodded.

"Then it's settled. I'll give you the deposit now, and you should also get things done as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble."

Li Wenqiang counted out two hundred yuan from his pocket, handed it to him, and then stood up to leave.

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely get it done as soon as possible."

Cui Wenfeng assured with a smile from behind.

After Li Wenqiang left, Cui Wenfeng looked at Li Wenqiang's back and laughed and scolded him, "You're a fool!" A pound of meat was five yuan. Even if he didn't do anything tricky, he could earn at least a hundred yuan from any one of them.

After laughing, he began to think about the matter. Pigs and sheep didn't matter. There were so many slaughterhouses anyway. He could just find a reason to seize a few. His uncle was the director of the meat processing plant. It would only take a word.

However, it is not easy to get three cows, especially the two normal cows. I have to think of a way.

Thinking of this, he began to prepare. He first went to the slaughterhouse, found his uncle, pulled him aside and whispered to him.

"Uncle, the cow that was delivered yesterday hasn't been killed yet, right? If not, don't kill it. The guy from the steel mill you told me about last time just came to see me. That guy wants to do breeding, and he wants a lot of things. He wants one male and two females of each of the big animals, such as pigs, cows, and sheep. The price has been agreed upon, five yuan per pound. Let's discuss it and find a place to put the animals tomorrow night. I'll go to Dahongmen to bring him over for the transaction."

Cui Wenfeng's face was full of excitement when he talked about this. With three of them, he could easily find several kinds of animals, including pigs, cows, sheep, horses, donkeys, and mules. Pigs can be divided into black pigs, wild boars, and white pigs. Cows can be divided into yellow cattle and buffaloes, not to mention sheep. If he was not afraid of losing too many at once and it would be too obvious, he could easily get more than ten or twenty kinds of livestock.

His uncle said, frowning.

"So many? This is not easy! You can't just get cows easily. If one is missing, it has to be reported to higher authorities. He wants three more."

Director Cui frowned as he spoke.

Cui Wenfeng said with a smile.

"Uncle, please help me. That guy gave me a lot of money. I'll give you more after the job is done. I roughly calculated that if this job is successful, I can earn at least this much!"

Cui Wenfeng looked around and whispered a number in his uncle's ear.

Cui Wenfeng did not tell him that he earned an extra hundred yuan from each cow. Compared with the price of selling livestock, these few hundred yuan seemed insignificant.

Director Cui hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"Okay, I can get you the cow with a broken leg, but I'll have to think of a way to get the two normal cows."

Cui Wenfeng was secretly happy. Since his uncle had spoken, there would be basically no problem. How to deal with the livestock in the meat processing plant was just a matter of his words. As long as the accounts were consistent, it would be a small matter whether there was meat for sale in the butcher shop. Who knew that he had sold the livestock in advance, so isn't it normal to be short of meat now?

After leaving Tofu Lane, Li Wenqiang drove his motorcycle all the way towards Zhengyangmen.

He had been prepared to be ripped off. Although the price of five dollars for the meat was expensive, that was someone else's channel and he couldn't buy it without going through him, so he accepted the loss.

There is a saying that suffering a loss is a blessing. Every loss now is a loss. When the livestock arrive in his space, they will be like chickens, ducks and geese, changing every day. It won’t be long before he will have a large number of livestock.

If he had the chance, he would actually like to raise some wild rabbits. They reproduce quickly and the meat is good, but unfortunately he didn't come across any.
