1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

The wind seemed to stop at this moment, the weeds stopped swaying, and the chirping of insects also stopped abruptly.

The faint light of red lanterns in the distance cast strange shadows on their faces.

Li Weiguo's face was tense, and he stared firmly at the black market boss, waiting for his response.

The black market boss fell into deep thought, pondering the ins and outs of the matter.

The surroundings fell into deathly silence, and only the breathing of the two people seemed particularly clear in this empty space.

At this time, Zhao Daqiang, who had been standing aside, was listening to the verbal battle between the two men. His heart was in his throat and he was sweating coldly.

He felt like he was standing between the two of them. Every word they said was full of mystery, and every look was full of contest. He could only stand by and worry, not daring to breathe.

The black market boss frowned, secretly calculating the pros and cons in his mind, and then asked: "Little brother, why do you arrange it like this? Why don't you trade directly with this person?"

Li Weiguo's face darkened, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he replied coldly: "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Just tell me whether you agree or not. If you agree, we will continue to cooperate. If you don't agree, just pretend I have never been here!"

The black market boss hit a snag and the smile on his face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

After thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and slapped his thigh: "Okay, little brother, this is not a difficult task for me, I promise you!"

In this way, Li Weiguo reached a cooperation with the black market boss.

Li Weiguo comes to trade with them once every half a month. The delivery time will not change, and Li Weiguo has the final say on the location.

As agreed, the black market boss had to provide supplies to the people Li Weiguo mentioned. Li Weiguo did not say anything else and just pointed out his second uncle to them in the black market.

Later, Li Weiguo went to the woods outside the black market, just like the first time he did the transaction.

With the cover of the forest, he took out two thousand kilograms of potatoes, two thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes, and finally two thousand kilograms of cornmeal from the invincible storage space.

In total, Li Weiguo deliberately spent an hour, waiting for everything to be settled before going back to find the black market boss.

According to the other party's habit, Zhao Daqiang came to inspect the goods and pay for them. The potatoes and sweet potatoes were still sold at 50 cents per pound, while the cornmeal was 1.5 yuan as offered by Li Weiguo.

The cornmeal provided by Li Weiguo is supposed to be of the best quality and can be sold for at least two yuan on the black market.

But Li Weiguo said that they would be like grasshoppers on the same rope from now on.

The profit from the cornmeal this time is enough for Li Weiguo to treat all his brothers to a meal. He hopes that they can cooperate well in the future.

The black market boss was very surprised at Li Weiguo's generosity.

He didn't expect that in this black market with huge profits, there would be someone so generous. He immediately ordered his men to pay great attention to the things arranged by his little brother.

Now that all the managers behind the entire black market have become Li Weiguo’s helpers, things are naturally going very smoothly for his second uncle.

In order to avoid suspicion, Li Weiguo did not appear during the entire process.

After receiving 5,000 yuan from the black market boss, he found an inconspicuous place and waited quietly for his second uncle to show up.

Of course, he did not forget to take out fifty kilograms of carefully prepared multi-grain noodles from the space, as well as a jar of loose wine prepared for his grandfather.

His multi-grain noodles are not ordinary multi-grain noodles. They are a mixture of ten kilograms of millet, ten kilograms of corn, ten kilograms of soybeans, and twenty kilograms of wheat.

He wanted to secretly increase the nutrition for his family, and feeding them whole-grain noodles was the best way.

As for the jar of liquor, Li Weiguo specially prepared it as a gift to his grandfather.

Although he wanted to take out two bottles of Moutai to honor his grandfather, he felt that everything should be done step by step. Otherwise, taking out something too expensive all at once would arouse suspicion from his family.

Holding the fifty kilograms of food, I waited in the dark for a long time before my second uncle came to me.

My second uncle seemed very excited to see Li Weiguo.

He leaned close to Li Weiguo's ear and said excitedly in a low voice, "Weiguo, guess what good thing happened to my second uncle today?"

Although Li Weiguo knew that it was his second uncle who found the supply channel, he still cooperated and asked: "What good news is it, second uncle, tell me quickly!"

"Weiguo, I'm lucky to be here today. I found a channel for supplying materials. Do you think this is a good thing?"

"Uncle, is the other party reliable? Are you sure you can cooperate with him for a long time?"

There was worry in Li Weiguo's tone. He felt that this was more like his reaction when he heard the news for the first time.

The second uncle pulled him out while talking: "Don't worry! The other party is the boss of this black market. After some probing, we confirmed the deal. Don't worry, I'm very careful! Moreover, they also sold me the best cornmeal. Look at the quality!"

Li Weiguo cooperated with his second uncle to look at the cornmeal provided by the other party, and laughed in his heart. This cornmeal went through a circle in the black market before entering his house.

"Hmm! Good stuff. The other party can still come up with such food at this time. They are indeed powerful. Second Uncle, you found a good channel!"

"Haha... You don't know, there is a twist here..."

As the two walked home, Li Dahe explained the ins and outs to him. The black market boss really took some effort to avoid arousing his uncle's suspicion.

But the final result was good, and my second uncle's supply channel was finally settled.

The two walked back to Lijia Village in the dark.

They walked on small paths all the way, and the only sounds on the road were the chirping of birds and insects, and the only sound was the two people's footsteps.

When they opened the door and walked into the yard, they found that Li Dajiang was still waiting for them in the yard.

"Big brother?"

"Dad, why don't you go back to bed? It's so late!"

When Li Weiguo saw the lonely figure clearly, his nose felt sore and a layer of mist appeared in his eyes.

"I'm worried if you don't come back. How was the harvest this time?"

Li Dajiang stood up with difficulty. Maybe because he had been sitting for too long, his body was shaking.

Li Weiguo quickly put down what he was holding, walked over quickly, and supported his father.

"Dad, slow down. Everything went smoothly tonight. I bought 50 kilograms of whole grain flour and a jar of wine. My second uncle also bought some excellent cornmeal!"

"Brother, are you okay?" Li Dahe also walked over quickly and asked worriedly.

"It's okay, you just sat there for a long time. I feel relieved to see you come back safely!"

When Li Dajiang saw the two people return safely, he finally put his mind at ease after a night of worry.

"Brother, I found a supply channel this time. I cooperated with the person in charge of the black market!"

"Really? That's great! But are you careful? Don't reveal your identity!"

"Don't worry, big brother! I'm being careful! With this channel, I think it's almost certain that I'll be able to get a permanent job!"

Li Dahe was very excited about this matter. Li Weiguo helped him analyze the ins and outs of it and said that this job was secure!

"Okay, okay! Dahe, I will be relieved when your job becomes permanent!"
