Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

Wang Feng didn't want to explain too much. He figured Lu Banxia would understand once they spent more time together. Otherwise, the more he explained, the more Lu Banxia would think he was bragging.

He couldn't very well tell Lu Banxia that he had 60 tons of gold in his space, and that the total value of US dollars, British pounds, and Hong Kong dollars amounted to 4 million Hong Kong dollars, could he?

"Jingru, I just asked you if you're going back to Qin Family Village tomorrow, and you haven't answered me yet?"

"Go back? Of course I have to go back!"

Without even thinking, Qin Jingru gave the answer.

Returning to Qin Family Village is the happiest thing for her. Now everyone in Qin Family Village is trying to curry favor with her. She is now the most beautiful woman in Qin Family Village.

She had been so focused on how to brag to Lu Banxia that she had completely forgotten about this.

Wang Feng nodded: "Okay, Jingru, then get up early tomorrow morning to make breakfast so we can set off early. This time we need your second uncle, the village chief, to help cover for us, and we'll also need the help of several other villagers. I'll bring back some extra meat tomorrow morning. At noon, have your eldest uncle and aunt, along with your second uncle's family, go to your parents' house for lunch. I have something to say to them."

"no problem."

Qin Jingru smiled and nodded in agreement, then asked doubtfully, "Brother Wang Feng, if you really are leaving Beijing for so long, what will happen if the factory can't find you? You can't just say you're going hunting in the mountains like last time, can you?"

Wang Feng sighed and said, "That's all we can do. Tomorrow I'll have my hunter friend take a few wild boars to Qin Family Village to raise. I'll have your second uncle arrange for someone to send one or two wild boars to the steel mill every week. Just say they're game I hunted in the deep mountains and have them deliver them to the steel mill."

"Huh? Brother Wang Feng, then you're going to have to bring a lot of wild boars to Qin Family Village. Where are you going to get so many wild boars?" Qin Jingru asked in surprise.

"Hehe, Jingru, don't worry. I have several hunter friends. They just hunted four wild boars today, and they were all alive," Wang Feng said with a smile.

After listening for so long, Lu Banxia finally understood and asked in confusion:

"Brother Feng, when you guys go hunting in the mountains, can you even catch a live wild boar?"

Wang Feng took a bite of mutton and said speechlessly, "Banxia, ​​what's the big deal? Skilled hunters usually dig traps deep in the mountains. Once the prey falls into the trap, it's dead, isn't it?"

"oh."

Lu Banxia felt a little dizzy today, because she was really shocked by what Wang Feng and Qin Jingru said.

Actually, it goes without saying that she knew Wang Feng was no ordinary person. Could an ordinary person eat the kind of rice and flour they ate every day? And what about that top-quality tea that could instantly refresh them? As for meat, that's easy to say. As long as you have money and are willing to spend it, eating meat every day is not a problem.

But these rice, flour, and tea leaves are definitely not things that money can buy.

She always felt that Wang Feng was too mysterious, as if he was hiding many things from her, but she believed that Wang Feng would tell her all his secrets in the future.

After finishing their meal and a pot of tea, Lu Banxia prepared the bathwater, helped Wang Feng take a bath, and then the three of them went to bed.

......

The next day, early in the morning.

Qin Jingru got up at five o'clock in the morning to make breakfast. She was overjoyed at the thought of returning to Qin Family Village today.

Wang Feng also got up very early today. He got up at six o'clock, washed up, said goodbye to Qin Jingru, and went out with his bicycle.

He rode his bicycle around for a while, then came to a secluded alley. He took out forty catties of wild boar meat and forty catties of ordinary white flour from his spatial storage, and returned to No. 95 Courtyard.

Qin Jingru made meat buns in the morning, just in case Lu Banxia had nowhere to eat at noon. However, her actions confused the residents of the Central Courtyard.

As soon as Wang Feng returned, he heard the neighbor's child crying and smelled a strong aroma.

After parking his bicycle, Wang Feng returned to the house and joked with a smile, "Jingru, those meat buns you made this morning have really caused a lot of trouble. I just heard several neighbor kids crying. I guess they wanted to eat meat buns and got beaten by their parents again."

"Hehe, Brother Wang Feng, I was just worried that Banxia wouldn't have anything to eat for lunch. Our combined monthly salary is almost two hundred yuan. If we eat a meat bun, no one can say anything, right?" Qin Jingru said with a smile.

Hearing this, Lu Banxia was touched: "Sister Jingru, you're so good to me, I love you to death."

Qin Jingru rolled her eyes: "So you still didn't believe me last night?"

"I believe you, I really believe you, Sister Jingru, you have to believe me."

Lu Banxia's expression was very serious, which made Qin Jingru roll her eyes.

"Alright, Jingru, are the meat buns ready? We need to finish eating quickly so we can head to Qin Family Village, otherwise we won't have time to cook lunch," Wang Feng urged.

"Okay, it should be ready soon. Wang Feng, wait for me, dinner will be served shortly."

After saying that, Qin Jingru went to the kitchen.

Soon, Qin Jingru brought out a steaming basket of large, hot meat buns.

There looked to be about a dozen. Today's meat buns were made with top-quality white flour, plus the meat we didn't finish last night, the aroma was simply divine.

"Brother Wang Feng, try the meat buns, are they good?"

Qin Jingru picked up a meat bun and handed it to Wang Feng, while she herself took a large meat bun and started eating.

Soon, of the fourteen large meat buns in the basket, twelve were eaten: Wang Feng ate six, Qin Jingru ate four, and Lu Banxia ate two before feeling full.

Qin Jingru finished her steamed buns and said to Lu Banxia, ​​"Banxia, ​​you can keep the other two and reheat them for lunch. Wang Feng and I will be back to cook dinner tonight, so we might be a little late. Just wait for us."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Jingru."

Lu Banxia smiled slightly. She was very touched and grateful that Qin Jingru had taken such good care of her.

She didn't know how to repay Qin Jingru. Her cooking wasn't good, and Qin Jingru knew everything she could cook. All she could do was stay home and do more housework, like washing clothes and dishes.

Wang Feng checked the time; it was already 6:30 in the morning.

"Alright, Jingru, it's getting late, let's get going."

"Um."

The two of them each pushed a bicycle out the door, and along the way they encountered many residents of the courtyard, who responded to them with smiles.

As they walked out of courtyard number 95, Qin Jingru saw two large bags strapped to the back of Wang Feng's seat and said:

"Brother Wang Feng, are all those bags on your back seat meat? Why don't you tie that other big bag to my car?"

"There are only forty catties of wild boar meat and forty catties of flour here. I can carry them. Your women's bicycle is slow to begin with, and it will be even slower if you carry things. Alright, let's hurry up and leave, don't waste time."

"oh."

Seeing that Wang Feng didn't need help, Qin Jingru didn't say anything more, and rode her bicycle towards Changping.

Wang Feng is fast on his bicycle. If he were alone, it would only take him three hours to get to Qinjiazhuang. Qin Jingru, on the other hand, would take three and a half hours on her women's bicycle.

They set off at 6:30 in the morning, and by the time they calculated, they would arrive at exactly 10:00 in the morning.
