Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong felt envious when they saw the dozens of fish in the tin bucket.
Chu Qianqian smiled and pulled Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong into the east wing.
"Second uncle, third uncle, the bucket of fish I caught is about 25 kilograms. How about exchanging it with you for 300 copper coins?"
After hearing this, Liu Haizhong looked at Yan Fugui. Yan Laoji was the expert in this area and was also better at calculating.
Yan Fugui silently calculated, and now a pound of fish is about 6 cents, and 25 pounds is exactly 15 yuan.
It's 5 cents a copper coin. Think about it, it's really not a loss.
Moreover, he resold it to various companies, not only making 15 yuan back, but also keeping one or two fish for himself.
"Okay, I'll go back with Old Liu to get the copper coins."
Not long after, the two old men came back with two hundred copper coins in their pockets, so as not to have to go back to get more coins because there were too many fake coins.
Chu Qianqian looked at it and smiled inwardly. Since it was placed in front of him, after picking out all the truth, he must have accepted them all.
It took just seven or eight minutes to get started one by one, and all 300 copper coins were appraised.
There were 337 pieces in total, and 350 gold coupons were received.
Chu Xiangqian swept all the real ones in front of him and said with a smile, "The extra 37 coins are worth 1 yuan, 6 cents and 5 cents. How about I give you 1 and a half kilograms of dried meat?"
When Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui heard that this was a good thing, they nodded in thanks.
Chu Xiangqian used the cupboard as a cover and took out the dried meat from the storage compartment.
After clearing the money and goods, the three of them left the courtyard again.
Chu Xiangqian asked Jiang Erleng and the Zhao boy to give the fish and the tin bucket to Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui. What they did with the fish after that had nothing to do with him.
As for Jiang Erlang and the Zhao boy, Chu Xiangqian took them into the courtyard and saw Xu Damao waiting at the door of his house.
Nodding to him, he led the two boys into the back room. Under Ai Yuan's puzzled eyes, he took out two steamed buns with noodles and handed them over.
"I remember someone asked, and they said we didn't fish today, but went out to see which river had more fish. And that bucket of fish was caught by the second uncle and the third uncle, do you understand?"
The two boys nodded blankly, and then whispered, "Brother, people won't believe it."
Chu Xiangqian said nonchalantly, "Believe it or not, that's someone else's business. I said the fish was caught by two uncles. That's my business."
The two boys didn't understand the logic behind this at all. They looked at the warm Erhemian steamed buns in their hands and the leftover steamed buns from lunch in their pockets.
The two of them nodded immediately, "Brother, no matter who asks, we all say that the second uncle and the third uncle caught it."
After letting the two go home, Chu Qianqian took out a piece of dried meat, about 2 kilograms, from his pocket.
He handed it to Aiyuan and said, "Get some meat dishes that are easy and have no flavor. Xu Damao and I will have a drink."
Aiyuan naturally knew what his elder brother meant. After thinking about it, he simply made some fried cabbage, fried shredded radish, and sliced the meat into pieces. There was no need to fry them, just spread them directly on top of the two dishes.
Chu Qianqian was about to go out and return to the east wing. He suddenly thought of Lou Xiao'e and turned around and said, "The dishes are ready. Let's serve them to Lou Xiao'e in batches, so that Xu Damao will not be scolded by his wife for not cooking."
Ai Yuan pouted, feeling contempt for Xu Damao in his heart.
If you are so afraid of your wife, you are not considered a man at all.
While Xu Damao and Chu Qianqian were in the east wing, drinking first, the yard quickly became lively as people from get off work kept coming back.
But after the guys reminded each other, their voices became much quieter.
After a while, Shazhu hurriedly opened the windshield curtain and walked in, "Go forward, are you really not the one who caught those fish?"
After saying that, when he saw Xu Damao sitting on the table with a wine glass, he suddenly felt unhappy.
When Chu Qianqian saw this, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, but he remembered that Sha Zhu was really enthusiastic about him, so he quickly got up and pulled him to the table.
He poured a glass of wine and said, "Don't ask, just ask that all those fish were caught by the third uncle and the second uncle."
Silly Zhu and Xu Damao were stunned at the same time, and then they understood and laughed.
"Okay, then don't ask, just drink."
Silly Zhu picked up the wine glass and showed a provocative expression to Xu Damao, "Da Mao, when you drink with the leader, don't you like the big one and the three small ones?
Why don't you do that at Xiangqian's house? "
How could Xu Damao withstand Silly Zhu's provocation? He picked up the wine glass and said, "Stop talking so much nonsense. If I don't drink you down today, my name, Xu Damao, will be written upside down."
Chu Xiangqian didn't care about the enemies, he drank with them, and then poured wine for them.
Within half an hour, Xu Damao was so drunk that he could hardly sit still.
Silly Zhu chuckled and secretly said to Xu Damao, you guys, don’t brag now. After knocking you down, grandpa sent you back to the backyard and left you frozen in the corner of the backyard overnight.
Although it is almost April at this time, the weather is not yet warm.
Many people are still wearing cotton-padded jackets.
Silly Zhu picked up the wine bottle, poured another glass for Xu Damao, and shouted to Xu Damao who was confused, "Da Mao, we agreed to drink three more glasses, but you just drank one glass and you can't do it anymore?"
Then don't brag about how good your drinking ability is in front of your buddies from now on. "
I don’t know if Silly Zhu’s voice has any magic power for Xu Damao.
Xu Damao, who was confused a second ago, immediately sobered up after hearing what Silly Zhu said.
Pointing at Silly Zhu, he cursed, "Who said that my brother is drunk? Let alone drink three more drinks, even if he drinks 10 more drinks, grandpa will accompany him."
At any other time, if Silly Zhu heard Xu Damao calling himself 'Grandpa', he would definitely jump up and beat him.
But now, naturally, he picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Xu Damao, drinking it in one gulp.
When Xu Damao saw this, he also let out a sigh of relief.
Chu Xiangqian was very aware of Xu Damao's drinking capacity. Seeing that he had finished drinking two ounces of wine, he hurriedly said to Shazhu, "Forget it, stop drinking, lest you really drink bad things."
Silly Zhu was not willing to listen, "Don't worry, I know this guy's drinking capacity. He will have to pour another drink, and then he will be fine after a night's sleep."
After saying that, he was still afraid that Chu Xiangqian wouldn't believe it, so he reassured, "In the past two months, he has been drinking with the leaders in the cafeteria quite a lot.
Several times I was so drunk that I fell into unconsciousness, and then went to work as normal the next day. "
Chu Qianqian felt relieved and watched Xu Damao drink another drink in a daze. His body softened and he lay directly under the table.
Silly Zhu drank twice in a row, and he was also drunk.
Xiaohehe stood up and planned to help Xu Damao up, but before he took two steps, he felt a little confused.
He shook his head quickly and became more awake.
Seeing this, Chu Qianqian simply grabbed Xu Damao's collar, lifted him up, and helped him lie down on the wooden sofa.
Sitting at the meeting table, he looked at Silly Zhu and asked, "Would you like me to have a few more drinks with you?"
Silly Zhu was startled and waved his hands hurriedly, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I don't dare to compete with you for a drink. And the amount is just right now."
Go home and lie down on the bed, just in time to have a comfortable sleep. "
After saying that, as if he was afraid that Chu Qianqian would not let him go, he took out 3 taels of food stamps from his pocket and put them on the table, "We have almost enough food. I will send Xu Damao back."
Chu Qianqian opened his mouth, but when he thought that he didn't dare to be serious with Lou Xiao'e in the courtyard, he could only nod and said, "Walk more carefully, don't throw people down," and let Silly Zhu carry Xu Damao's Arms, helping people out.
Chu Xiangqian then went out to watch the fun, and saw that the gate to the front yard was closed, but the two boys from the Yan family were still sitting behind the gate to guard it.
But his eyes kept looking toward the middle courtyard.
Chu looked forward and saw a group of people crowded in the middle courtyard. Even Chu Aiyuan was staying with several aunts, girls and girls, chattering without knowing what to say.
Entering the middle courtyard, Chu glanced forward and saw Qin Huairu holding Xiaodang watching the fun, but did not see Jia Dongxu.
Lou Xiao'e complained that Xu Damao was drunk again, and followed Sha Zhu back to the backyard with a look of dissatisfaction.
When Aiguo, Aimin, Liu Guangtian and six or seven other young men saw Chu Xiangqian coming in, they hurriedly gathered around and asked, "Brother, do you want to go fishing tomorrow?"
Chu Xiangqian is still thinking about going to the courtyard of Beach Street tomorrow to have a friendly match with Lou Xiao'e.
I wanted to refuse, but I didn't expect to see Lou Xiao'e come out of the backyard angrily. After asking a few ladies, they found out that after that guy Si Zhu helped Xu Damao back, he threw him on the sofa. I don't know if he hit Xu Damao. belly.
This guy vomited all over the floor.
Lou Xiao'e couldn't bear the smell.
After saying all the good things, he persuaded Shazhu to help clean up.
Silly Zhu's mind was very simple. Not only did he agree to clean up, but he also persuaded Lou Xiao'e to go back to her parents' house for one night. By then, would Xu Damao, who was drunk and confused, be at his mercy?
When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he knew that Lou Xiao'e was also getting off the donkey. And when the girl spoke, she glanced at herself several times.
Lou Xiao'e nodded slightly, feeling overjoyed. She went back and pushed Xu Damao's bicycle, saying hello to the people in the yard and leaving the courtyard.
When Chu Xiangqian saw this, he chatted with Aiguo, Aimin, and Liu Guangtian for more than twenty minutes, and listened to a lot of Liu Guangtian's complaints about the street.
He patted Liu Guangtian on the head and said, "Okay, stop complaining and do more. Besides, I'm back from a business trip and I'll be going to the streets in the next two days. Do you understand?"
Liu Guangtian nodded hurriedly. His backer was Chu Xiangqian, and his reputation in the street was sometimes more useful than the director.
Then he pulled Chu forward to the side and whispered, "Brother, someone on the street said that you had promised to help Section Chief Chen of the Public Security Department to be transferred to the grain station?"
Chu Qianqian frowned and asked, "Did Lao Chen imply that you and Yan were liberated?"
"That's not true," Liu Guangtian scratched his head, "Probably Section Chief Chen thought it was useless to ask us, so he just asked several times when you would be back."
Chu Qianqian thought to himself that he had indeed done something unreasonable.
Chen Huaili had planned to transfer him before, so naturally he didn't want to fight.
But he suddenly went to Hong Kong Island, which made Chen Huaili not a human being inside and outside.
After thinking about it, he called Aiyuan over and said, "I have something to do tonight, so I may not come back to sleep."
Aiyuan was stunned, but Liu Guangtian knew as soon as he heard that Chu Xiangqian must be going to Chen Huaili's house.
He even went to get game for Chen Huaili overnight to help him arrange work.
If nothing else works, let Chen Huaili go back to the streets tomorrow with game, and the discussions in the streets will soon dissipate.
He hurriedly said to Aiyuan, "Sister Aiyuan, Brother Chu is really serious."
Aiyuan rolled his eyes at Liu Guangtian and thought to himself that it must have been something you said that made his eldest brother have to go out to do errands at night.
"Go on, I still can't believe my brother's words? Do you need to be a good person here?"
Liu Guangtian touched his nose awkwardly.
Aiyuan was quite beautiful, and now she works in a supply and marketing cooperative. It can be said that in terms of the status of her job in society, no one among the young people in the courtyard can compare to Aiyuan.
If you have a good relationship with Aiyuan and want to buy some meat, daily necessities, and non-staple food, you can not only give money and tickets to Aiyuan and ask her to bring it back.
On weekdays, occasionally Aiyuan can help people order three to five taels of fat meat.
This alone makes Aiyuan the one that no one wants to offend in this courtyard.
Not to mention that there is an eldest brother named Chu Xiangqian.
So now, not only Shazhu is still thinking about Aiyuan, but also the hearts of several half-year-olds are slowly growing admiration for Aiyuan.
After Liu Guangtian was scolded, he didn't show any anger at all, and even vaguely hoped that Aiyuan would scold him more.
Chu Qianqian looked at Liu Guangtian's expression and guessed what the boy was thinking.
Glancing at Aiyuan, he saw that Aiyuan's face was slightly red and he was becoming more and more dissatisfied with Liu Guangtian.
Holding Chu Qianqian's arm, "Brother, I'll clean up the house for you. You go out to do errands at night, so don't tire yourself."
As soon as Chu Xiangqian and Aiyuan left, Aiguo and Aiyuan surrounded Liu Guangtian, "You kid, if you miss my sister again, we will beat you up."
Liu Guangfu hurriedly grabbed Aimin and said, "No, no, no, my brother didn't say anything. It would be too unfair if we all get beaten."
Besides, Brother Xiang didn’t say anything. If you hit my brother, Brother Xiang will take care of you and give you a good beating. "
When the other boys heard this, they secretly thought that Liu Guangtian really deserves Chu Xiangqian's attention.
Everyone looked at each other, thinking that the best and most beautiful girl in the yard couldn't take advantage of Liu Guangtian.
He immediately started cheering.
Fortunately, patriotism and love for the people are inherently smart, so I couldn't tell what these people were thinking.
Liu Guangtian was so anxious that he almost cursed, but looking at five or six pairs of eager eyes, he could only cowardly beg for mercy.
——
Chu Qianqian, who had been observing the middle courtyard through the tits, couldn't help but shake his head.
Then he became a little worried about Aiyuan's marriage.
Ordinary young people, let alone love aid, even look down upon themselves. But a big brother like Li Yuanchao is by no means a good match for Ai Yuan.
These days, there are many middle-aged and elderly women who dislike poverty and love wealth. Don’t think that the leader’s wife is as enlightened as she is.
Don't even think about it. Once you marry into the compound, 99% of the mothers-in-law will dislike Aiyuan's background.
Moreover, there are very few young masters with good family backgrounds who are good matches.
Looking at Ai Yuan who was clearing away the dishes, Chu Qianqian thought for a while and asked, "Sister, you have been in the city for more than two months. Are there any young people you like?"
Aiyuan was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red, "Brother, what are you talking about? I'm only 18 years old, and you really want to marry me off early?"
