Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

After these people lost their main crops, how many of them lost all their wealth in a short period of time and became beggars?

It's not that they don't want to find work, but they don't know how to do anything. The Eight Banners system has turned these people into useless people.
It is said that some bannermen were so poor that they could only eat pickled vegetables and steamed bread, and some bannermen were almost starving to death and relied entirely on their bondservants for support.

This guy had no idea what kind of luck he had, a box actually fell from the beam of the only remaining house;

In the end, because I didn’t know much about the business, I sold it at a low price. After I got the money, I immediately showed off my style and went straight to Quanjude.
Good fellow, once he got rich, he started to act like a playboy, put on airs, and even put up bird cages;

Finally, when the money was gone, he continued to suck the blood of his minions;

Others say that a bannerman's ancestors were very wealthy, and his extravagant life can only make people sigh, because poverty limits imagination;

Eventually, his family fell into poverty and he had to make a living by pulling a rickshaw. One day, he met a customer who was a former servant.

Seeing the old man who was full of vigor and spent money lavishly, I felt sorry for him and gave him some money to make a living.
Who knew that after receiving the money, he would immediately spend lavishly, write words and mark roast duck, and even look down upon the high-end drinks that he could not afford normally;

Of course, there are some people who manage their households well and save a lot of good things. I guess Guan Ye is one of these people. This is He Yuzhu's goal;
After He Yuzhu returned home, he put the buns on the table and started to cook cornmeal porridge. Since he already had buns, he didn't need to make corn porridge;
At some point, Cai Qiuyue looked at He Yuzhu in a daze. Where did Brother Zhuzi go last night? When she woke up in the middle of the night, she didn't see anyone.
"Brother Zhuzi, last night..."

Cai Qiuyue hesitated for a moment, but still asked. Some things between husband and wife should be made clear, otherwise, misunderstandings will accumulate and become deeper, and in the end, they cannot be resolved!
"Shh, I couldn't sleep last night, so I went to Pigeon City to broaden my horizons!"

He Yuzhu didn't expect that his going out was discovered by the person next to his pillow;
It’s no wonder. How could they not know some actions while sleeping in the same bed?
"Pigeon City? Brother Zhuzi, what are you doing there? You are a cadre now, you can't do anything reckless!"

Cai Qiuyue was horrified. Why did he end up in Pigeon City?
"Hey, Qiuyue, you are an excellent student. What is the meaning of the existence of Pigeon City? Have you really never doubted it?"

He Yuzhu glanced at the children carefully. These words must not be heard by the children. If they were to be told, it would be bad!
"What does Brother Zhuzi mean?"

Didn't you doubt it? Of course, as the deputy director of finance, he still has good eyesight;
It is unreasonable for such a large speculative place to exist in the capital, and it is impossible for the higher authorities to be unaware of it.

But, even though I know it, I dare not speak it out. Besides, it is forbidden to go to the pigeon market openly, and individuals cannot go to buy things. This is the rule.
“The pigeon market has everything you need for life, and no tickets are required;
Although it is a bit expensive, it is a good place for many people;
Although everyone inside was masked, all kinds of people were there, and I even ran into Yi Zhonghai, which shows how popular he is!"

The price of coarse grains is no longer 20 cents, but 30 cents. It is estimated that it will double next year. These are huge profits.
"But we don't lack these things. What did you go there for?"

Cai Qiuyue still refused to accept it. The two of them had high salaries, and with the cadres, the various bills issued were enough for the He family to use.

Other families didn’t know, but the He family definitely didn’t need to take risks;

"Wife, we have two children, and we don't know which direction society will develop in the future. I want to prepare in advance and consolidate the foundation of our family.
In the Pigeon Market, a small yellow croaker is only over fifty yuan, and no one wants it. As the saying goes, gold in troubled times is an antique in prosperous times.

We don't understand antiques, but gold is valuable at all times. Taking the opportunity to get a batch can enhance our ability to resist risks! "He Yuzhu is ready to reveal some of it at the right time, so that he won't be unable to explain it when the spring breeze comes!

"Brother Zhuzi, I know what you mean, but this is too risky!"

Qiuyue looked at He Yuzhu worriedly, fearing that her brother Zhuzi would get caught up in it. What would he do with three children and a younger sister?

"Haha, Qiuyue, don't worry, that place is well connected, and we can evacuate quickly if something happens;
You know my ability. If I can only see your back when the time comes, I will lose!"

He Yuzhu waved his hand indifferently. Now is the best time to accumulate capital. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it forever.
Isn’t it true that after so many years of preparation, we are laying the foundation for the arrival of the spring breeze?
Now we are in a difficult period, with a shortage of daily necessities, and the average wage of workers is more than thirty-seven yuan;
By next year, even with rations and tickets, people may not be able to eat enough, and the pigeon market will expand further;
Before He Yuzhu was reborn, he heard stories from his elders about this time. In his previous life, his grandparents gave birth to nine children, six boys and three girls.

It was such a huge test for so many people to survive, not to mention having enough food to eat. A handful of rice had to be enough for eleven people.

How to eat? I can eat rice soup with only a few grains of rice three times a day, which is enough to survive;

The reason why I was so angry when I watched a TV series in my previous life was that the Jia family actually said that corn flour cuts the throat, which shows how extravagant their life is;
If you don’t listen to the stories told by your elders, you can’t imagine how difficult life is and how happy your life was in your previous life;

In this day and age, it is good enough to have some coarse grains to eat. How can you say that cornmeal cuts your throat? Is this something a human would say?
She even dislikes coarse grains, which shows how much help Sha Zhu, who is in the middle, has given to the Jia family. Look at her now, how can Jia Zhangshi still look fat?

The Jia family now has trouble getting coarse grains, let alone meat. They should really be grateful for the times!
The children got up one after another, and the couple stopped talking. Looking at the meat buns, the little foodie's eyes widened instantly;

Festival? Impossible, why would I buy buns? The key is that there is also the smell of meat in the smell, so delicious!
"He Ying, what did we have for breakfast?"

Before the meal, He Yuzhu asked questions as usual. If they answered correctly, it was fine. If they answered incorrectly, they had to eat steamed bread. This was to cultivate children's awareness.

"Steamed bread with pickles and cornmeal porridge is barely enough to fill you up!"

After being punished several times, He Ying had learned her lesson, and the same was true for He Qian. As for Yu Shui, she had grown up!

"Very good, the answer is absolutely correct, let's eat!"

After dinner, everyone started to work. This year, after He Ying went to work, the couple would have a little more leisure time. Otherwise, three children would be really tiring. He Yuzhu consumed the most effort!
"Brother Zhuzi, I'm getting married this weekend. Can you help me with the cooking?"

As soon as he entered the office and hadn't arranged the children properly, Xu Damao rushed over to solve the problem of the cook;

"You're quick enough, aren't you? My second senior brother Zhang Ze is ten dollars, and Ma Hua is five dollars. Pick one yourself!" (End of this chapter)
