At noon, every household in the courtyard was cooking. Wang Yaozu entered the courtyard with a bag of white noodles on his shoulders and two bags of rice in his hand.
There were two guys behind him. One guy was carrying a bag of millet and two strips of pork in his hand. It weighed at least twenty kilograms by visual inspection.
Another waiter carried a bag of white flour and a lot of vegetables, and the two followed Wang Yaozu into the backyard.
The three of them entered Wang Yaozu's house, causing many people in the yard to look over, including Jia Zhang, who had a rude face, and Jia Dongxu, who had just been discharged from the hospital.
Seeing the two waiters coming out, Jia Zhang ran out with small steps, stopped the waiters, and asked with a smile: "Let me ask, what did Wang Yaozu buy?"
The waiter smiled and said: "I bought a hundred catties of rice, a hundred catties of white flour, fifty catties of millet, twenty catties of pork, and a lot of vegetables, such as cabbage, celery and the like!"
Hearing that Wang Yaozu bought these things, Jia Zhang took a deep breath.
"Aren't you not allowed to owe debts?" Jia Zhang asked back!
The waiter said: "Of course we won't let you pay any debts. All payments will be made in cash!"
"Did he give money?"
"Of course, how can we deliver the goods if you don't pay us!"
The waiter rolled his eyes at Mr. Jia Zhang and trotted out of the courtyard. They had no time to amuse themselves with this old woman. There were still two stores behind that had undelivered goods.
Jia Zhang was about to go home when she saw two workers walking in at the door. One was holding a brand new stove, and the other was pushing a cart of good briquettes in a cart.
The worker pushed the briquettes under the window and prepared to place the briquettes here. Wang Yaozu opened the door and said with a smile: "Master, help me put the coal in the room!"
With that said, Wang Yaozu glanced at Jia Zhang who was standing in the middle courtyard, and said loudly: "There are people in this courtyard with unclean hands and feet. They should be stolen if they are left here!"
"I live in a house as big as mine alone. Put the coal in that house for me!"
After finishing speaking, Wang Yaozu glanced at Jia Zhang who was standing in the middle courtyard and said with a smile: "Jia Zhang, do you have enough coal in your house? Is it cold in the house?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang said angrily: "You don't care whether my house is cold or not. Just take care of yourself!"
Wang Yaozu yelled: "Okay, don't lick your face to borrow coal then. Remember to return the ten kilograms of coal you borrowed from me last time!"
"As a human being, you can't pretend to be stupid. Don't stop talking without me mentioning you. I lend you out of love, not because I owe you anything!"
"If you don't return it, I will go to your house and get it myself!"
Mrs. Jia Zhang rolled her eyes at Wang Yaozu and yelled with a venomous look on her face: "If you want so much coal, I'm not afraid of burning you to death!"
Wang Yaozu laughed: "It's better to be burned to death than to freeze to death! It's not like someone's house, where the temperature inside the house is whatever the temperature is outside. If I hadn't eaten a little fatter, I would have frozen to death!"
"Hahahahahaha!"
The two workers also saw that Wang Yaozu and Jia Zhang were no longer dealing with each other. Listening to the two bickering, the two masters worked even more energetically.
Half an hour later, two more masters came and replaced the old windows of Wang Yaozu's house with new ones, made a thermal seal, and repaired the door.
In the afternoon, Wang Yaozu went to the mall and bought five sets of clothes that fit him, five pairs of cotton shoes that fit his feet, a change of cotton socks, ten pairs of underwear each, and a piece of clothing for his sister-in-law...
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, billowing black smoke came out of Wang Yaozu's newly replaced heater. As the briquettes burned, the room became much warmer, with the temperature reaching more than ten degrees above zero.
The house where the temperature was 89 degrees below zero and could wake people up at night is gone forever.
After the stove finished burning, Wang Yaozu burned the kang again. With the kang working in conjunction with the stove, he no longer had to worry about being woken up by the cold at night. He would definitely be able to sleep until dawn!
Wang Yaozu cooked another pot of fragrant rice. He was really not used to eating whole grains.
Although these things were a bit expensive to exchange, they did cost money. He made 1,781.25 yuan from selling gold in the morning. After spending it like this, he only had more than 1,600 yuan left.
Wang Yaozu spent money so coolly that he aroused the envy, jealousy and hatred of other people in the yard. Everyone lives so poor, why do you buy so many things!
After a while, a group of people sat at the Eight Immortals table in the middle courtyard and started talking.
Liu Haizhong said sourly: "Wang Yaozu bought ten carts of good briquettes for five yuan a cart. Where did he get so much money? Is it just with those two little pheasants?"
Jia Zhang added with an envious look: "You saw ten carts of briquettes. This guy also bought a hundred kilograms of rice, a hundred kilograms of white flour, fifty kilograms of millet, and twenty kilograms of pork and various vegetables!"
"They were all given by small workers. They bought more than the New Year's goods. I saw them all! And they were all given in cash. Is she getting rich or something?"
"How can a poor guy like him get so much money?"
Xu Fugui said: "This boy has changed a lot today!"
He Daqing also said with a little envy: "I really bought a lot of it, it was enough for him to eat for a while."
Yan Bugui chirped and said with a smile: "This kid must have made a fortune, I don't know how much money is left!"
"Hey, it feels so good to make a fortune! I really miss it!"
Yan Bugui also made a fortune more than ten years ago. He used the money to buy a house, a bicycle and a radio.
Several people looked at Yi Zhonghai at the same time, and Yi Zhonghai sat aside without saying a word. Wang Yaozu is where he is today, all thanks to him.
If he hadn't taken Wang Yaozu to buy antiques, Wang Yaozu wouldn't have been able to buy gold, and he wouldn't have been able to make so much money without buying gold.
The most important thing is that he made so much money, but he didn’t even give himself a penny!
He...how embarrassed is he!
This kid, what he says and what he actually does are two different people, as if he has become a different person.
Liu Haizhong looked at Yi Zhonghai and asked, "Old Yi, what do you think?" '
Yan Bugui echoed: "Yes, Lao Yi, what do you think?"
Everyone looked at Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai sighed: "I can see with my eyes, how else can I see?"
When several people gathered to discuss Wang Yaozu, Wang Yaozu, who had just finished cooking, saw so many people gathered in the middle courtyard, so he went over to join in the fun.
As soon as he walked up to them, Wang Yaozu heard everyone talking about how he bought a lot of things today, so he also walked over.
"What are you talking about?"
"Where did my money come from?"
Wang Yaozu slapped the table and said, "I owe this money to Uncle Yi!"
Wang Yaozu glanced at Yi Zhonghai with a grateful expression and said with a smile, "I sold two pheasants for ten yuan."
"Uncle Yi said he knew antiques and could help me make a fortune. I also needed money, so I went with him!"
"Uncle Yi picked out an antique for me, cut a gold bar out of it, and sold it for more than 1,700 yuan. I was rich in no time!"
"I made a fortune this time. The person I am most grateful to is Uncle Yi. Without Uncle Yi, I would not be where I am today!"
"Thank you, Uncle Yi, you are such a good person!"
After hearing Wang Yaozu's words, the smile on Yi Zhonghai's face froze instantly. You kid, you don't know where to start!
Ever since you issued the gold bars, I had a stomachache and was so regretful that I almost vomited bile.
In front of so many people, you said again, okay, that’s how you play, right?
I heard that Yi Zhonghai helped Wang Yaozu to get the gold bars. Everyone looked at Yi Zhonghai, wanting to hear what happened.
Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, what Yaozu said is true. This is probably what happened!"
After saying this, Yi Zhonghai felt angry. He probably peeed yellow at night.
Wang Yaozu smiled and said: "You don't have to envy me. Uncle Yi can make me rich, and he can also make you rich. If you all use your money to buy with Uncle Yi, every household will get rich!"
"The meal is ready, I'm going back to eat first!"
Wang Yaozu clapped his hands and left with a smile. Before leaving, he even dug a hole for Yi Zhonghai.
Suddenly, everyone looked at Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Don't even look at me. How can I do that? I'm trying to trick Wang Yaozu. I didn't expect this kid to be lucky."
Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai shivered.
"Why is it a bit cold today!"
"Lao Yan, go to your house to listen to the weather forecast and see what the temperature is today!"
Everyone went to Yan Bugui's house to listen to the weather forecast. When it was time to play the weather forecast, Yan Bugui turned on the radio.
There was a mosquito sound coming from the radio, but no one could hear what it said clearly.
Liu Haizhong frowned and said: "Old Yan, can you speak louder and stop being so harsh?"
Yi Zhonghai said: "That's right, how much electricity does listening to the weather forecast cost?"
Xu Fugui said: "I tell you as an old projectionist, the amount of electricity consumed by the radio has nothing to do with the loudness of the sound. As long as you turn it on, you will consume this electricity."
"Hurry up and make your voice louder, the weather forecast will pass soon!"
Yi Zhonghai urged: "Speak louder!"
Liu Haizhong said: "Hurry up!"
Yan Bugui had no choice but to amplify his voice.
"In front of the radio, friends before the radio, the weather station predicts that starting from 8 o'clock tonight, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region will be affected by the northern cold current, and the temperature will drop by 20 degrees. In some areas, the lowest temperature at night can reach more than minus 30 degrees. Please citizens. Friends, be prepared for freezing and cold weather!”
To cool down!
Several people looked at each other...
