Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

"Twenty yuan? A can?!?"

Oil was precious in those days, but it wasn't that precious yet.

An ordinary worker's wage is 24.68 yuan.

Just take twenty yuan and buy a bottle of oil.

What's going on? Is the whole family starving this month?

"Twenty yuan isn't expensive, Mom. Think about it, this is specially for the elderly and children."

If your child eats this, they will be smarter than other children and have a higher starting point.

They'll be smarter after starting school. So, are you going to buy it or not? Are you going to buy it for Jia Cheng and Jia Huan?

Being smart and getting proper nutrition gives you a much higher starting point.

The word "scroll" didn't exist in this era, so it brought over a theory from later generations.

It's so easy to fool people!

"Buy it! Buy it for my grandson and granddaughter. My daughter is already smart, and a grandchild will be even smarter."

"From now on, you can just get 100 points directly!"

Wu Guifen spoke without hesitation.

"One hundred points isn't enough, at least seven hundred!"

"A thousand points is fine!!"

The two elderly people chatted back and forth, as if they could already see the two little ones studying at school.

"Yes, Mom, you're just a regular retired teacher, and you still want to buy it at this price?"

Your old comrades, aren't they scrambling to buy it? Twenty yuan is the cost price; I'm not making a profit.

I don't care how much you want to sell it for, just give me twenty yuan a jar.

Regardless of whether they are family or not, you must give them enough room for personal gain.

Otherwise, why would she help you? Helping you once or twice is fine, but if you want it to last, you have to do it this way.

The reason why pine nut oil is expensive is because pine nuts were not valuable back then.

Actually, this stuff isn't cheap to begin with; if you convert it to the price ratio of later generations, it would cost several hundred yuan per jar.

"Okay, if it's really as good as you say, twenty yuan a jar isn't much. I think if it's only for kids..."

One jar will last two or three months! Here's what we'll do! I'll give you twenty yuan first, and you can take one jar to Jia Cheng and Jia Huan.

Wu Guifen thought for a moment and then said.

"Mom, we still have some at home, the children have food."

Lu Weiguo quickly pushed the twenty yuan off the table.

"Why are you tearing me apart? It's not for you, it's for the child..."

In Northeast China, once this is said, it's considered disrespectful if you don't accept it.

Lu Weiguo smiled and put the twenty yuan into his pocket.

He could give her other money, but he couldn't tell Li Xiulian about this twenty yuan.

of course.

We can't spend this money; we need to buy something for our parents sooner or later.

Besides four cans of oil, there was also a bag of fruit.

Lu Weiguo then pulled out a lot of bear meat chili sauce that Li Xiulian had pickled at home.

They told the outside world that it was all pork offal sauce.

But only those who have tasted it know the difference in flavor.

I only brought four cans of oil on this trip.

That's equivalent to selling it for 100 yuan.

These days, it's not that making money is difficult, it's just that information transmission is more difficult.

Once you have the information, you can basically pick up money everywhere.

I left my father-in-law's house.

Lu Weiguo turned a corner and walked a short distance before he saw the yellow cranes wandering around.

I met Lu Weiguo.

The yellow crane was even closer to him than if he had seen his own father!

He snatched the bicycle from Lu Weiguo and helped him push it.

They eagerly inquired when the remaining batch would be delivered.

"Anytime is fine, what's wrong? Are you afraid I won't want you?"

Lu Weiguo said with a smile.

"How could that be? We're like brothers, a man's word is his bond!!"

Huang He chuckled.

He wasn't afraid that Lu Weiguo would run away.

Because of the large quantity, he secretly took out a batch and placed it in the suburbs.

If Lu Weiguo doesn't want this.

Are these bricks difficult to dispose of?

This is during a critical period of reform.

For someone like Lu Weiguo who wants to stay overnight in the county town, the local street office has to check his letter of introduction.

Using bricks, a type of resource, to build houses?

Don't you have a letter of introduction to apply?

Who would dare give you a brick?

Only Lu Weiguo dared to think of it, and Wang Defa dared to stamp it in advance.

Otherwise, Lu Weiguo really wouldn't have dared to accept bricks without a receipt.

"Yes, I'll take as many as you have, enough to build a shed. But I'd like to ask you for a favor."

Lu Weiguo pulled Huang He along and walked into a small alley.

After walking more than 100 meters and turning a corner, Lu Weiguo finally told the two to stop.

"Hey buddy, what are you looking at? Are you being this cautious because you killed someone?"

Lu Weiguo was still sticking his head out to see if anyone was following him.

Huang He said jokingly.

"Yes, I killed someone. Do you have any ideas?"

"puff!"

Huang He was so frightened that he choked on a mouthful of water!

Then he started coughing, patting his chest.

"What's wrong? Can't you handle this, bro?"

Lu Weiguo's lips curled up as he continued to ask.

"Dude, stop messing around. I'm just a middleman, only good at speculation and profiteering..."

Lu Weiguo was both pulling people along and being careful not to be followed.

Huang He didn't believe it and had his doubts.

"Oh, just kidding! I just wanted to sell something."

"Holy crap! Brother, you scared me to death!!" Upon hearing this, Huang He's cough stopped.

Take a deep breath.

Lu Weiguo sighed, "See, you don't even believe the truth."

With such an innocent appearance, who would believe that I am not a good person?

"Isn't this just to lighten the mood? Look at this."

Lu Weiguo took out a gold bean and handed it to Huang He. "Look at this, can you help with it?"

"Huh? That's it? Why are you being so careful?"

Huang He knew at a glance that they were Russian gold beans.

He looked at Lu Weiguo with disdain, as if he were looking at a novice who had just started out.

"By ripping off those tickets, guess how I managed to keep three young wives?"

That thing only earns a small fee for its work, and you turn your back on it...

Cough cough, and that Russian gold is the real money-maker!

You think you're the only one who can get your hands on some? Let me tell you, if you have the guts, just hitch a ride on a coal truck to Heihe.

In just a few months, you can go to the women's barracks along the ice. If you can take good care of them, you can at least bring back a bagful!

Huang Helian's brushstrokes describe the scene as if he had actually been there.

Seeing that this thing wasn't being guarded as strictly as he had thought, Lu Weiguo scooped out all the gold beans.

"Will this bag be okay?"

"Holy crap! Bro! Have you slept with Russian women before?!"

Holy crap, I was so blind to your greatness before, how dare I call you brother!

"You're my God of Wealth, you son of a bitch! I'd kowtow to you for sure!"

Huang He is a middleman with some connections who is willing to fight and take risks.

It's all hard-earned money.

Whoever has valuable goods and whoever has a way to circulate them is his ancestor!

"Can you handle it?"

"That's incredible!!!"

Huang He almost knelt down.

"Okay, when we make the deal, you take the money and I'll give you this. But if you try anything funny or have any ulterior motives..."

Don't worry about me being impolite.

Lu Weiguo is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

He patted Huang He's shoulder twice.

Lu Weiguo hadn't even exerted his strength yet.

The yellow crane plopped down on the ground.

Despite the pain, she still shook her head with a smile: "How dare I? Who would dare offend the God of Wealth..."
