Siheyuan: Live Well

Chapter 679 Foreign Exchange

"Brother Chu, let's settle the matter at hand first. Can you still find someone to replace it with a beautiful sword?"

"How much are you prepared to exchange for?"

"The old man gave me 10,000 yuan today." Xu Damao patted the satchel he was carrying.

"Didn't you ask the person who was making trouble in private?"

"Why didn't I ask? Basically, they only exchanged it for 8,900, but there was one who could exchange it for 1,200, but he asked me to pay first. How is this possible?"

Indeed, there is something wrong with this. They also have their prices on the black market, and they will not give you random quotes. The one that is obviously much higher is probably a scam.

"How much do you want to change?"

"I was thinking why not exchange it for one thousand?"

In fact, if you can get a note and exchange it with Bank of China, you can exchange it for more. The problem is that the note is not easy to get. Even if you can get it, you can only exchange it for two hundred US dollars at most, so what is it for?

Li Chu hesitated for a moment and then said: "Okay, Damao, give me the money. If you come over tomorrow, I will give you one thousand and two."

"Ah? No, Brother Chu, although I want to change as much as possible, I can't let you lose, right?"

"Okay, give me the money and I'll find a way for you."

"I'm serious. Our friendship is a friendship. I can't let you suffer. The price is not available on the market now. Where can you exchange it?"

"You don't care where I can change it, you idiot."

Xu Damao hesitated again and again, then shook his head: "Brother Chu, it's true that I came to you for help, but I really can't let you suffer."

It's really hard to find someone who can exchange ten thousand for one thousand and two outside now. Otherwise, Xu Damao would not be able to exchange it based on his connections in running a restaurant in the past two years.

The most he could find was one thousand and one, and he had to wait a month for that. He didn't have time to wait at all now.

"Don't worry, I won't suffer any loss. I mean, you, a grown man, can't be your mother-in-law now."

"Brother Chu" was called mother-in-law. Xu Damao smiled bitterly and said: "Well, I won't say anything. I will give you the money. You can give me one thousand and one. I don't want more."

"Hey, I've never seen someone like you push money out!"

"It's not that I pushed the money out, I know that the price is simply not there now."

Li Chu nodded: "Let me tell you the truth, just because you can't change it doesn't mean I can't change it. If I give you a thousand and two dollars, I will definitely not make up for it. Bring it quickly, I'll return it later

There's something wrong, otherwise I won't care."

Seeing that he was really impatient, Xu Damao was about to take out the money from his bag.

"Brother Chu, are you going to hold it like this?"

???

Li Chu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized when he saw the corner of the satchel that was exposed. The ten thousand yuan was a bundle. If he just walked in the hospital with it like this, it would probably spread throughout half of Forty-Nine City in less than ten minutes.

.

"Wait a moment." He quickly stopped Xu Damao's movements, and then said to Liu Dazhuang who was standing aside: "Dazhuang, go to the hall to find a newspaper."

When the newspaper comes, wrap the bundle of money in the newspaper and put it under your arm.

"Okay, you can go back and come find me tomorrow morning."

"That's OK, thank you, Brother Chu."

Li Chu raised his hand and walked towards the administrative building at the back.

In fact, he didn't have anywhere to change money. As for his connections outside and the people in society, he really didn't know many of them.

If he goes through formal channels, he can exchange it for three to five hundred at most.

The reason why he took the money was because the beautiful knives he gave to his wife last time were still at home.

He thought that he would hardly use it anyway, so he might as well give Xu Damao some instead.

The price he mentioned was indeed a reasonable price, and it was not considered an advantage.

When he threw the bundle of money in front of his wife at night, she was shocked again.

"Where did you come from? What did you do?" Ding Qiunan spoke with a vibrato.

"Don't get excited, wife, this is Xu Damao's money." Li Chu quickly explained.

"Xu Damao's? Why is his money here with you?" Ding Qiunan's voice finally returned to normal. She was really frightened when she saw the money just now, and she was afraid that her husband would do some secret work again.

"He wanted to exchange for some American knives. The ones on the market are now priced at 890 and 890, which is a bit of a disadvantage. I was wondering if we still had some at home, so I took them and agreed to exchange them for him."

"Huh~" Ding Qiunan let out a long breath, then she raised her hand and hit her man's arm.

"Can't you tell me clearly in advance? You suddenly threw so much money in front of me. You just wanted to scare me, didn't you?"

Don't tell me, Li Chu really meant to be a bit of a prank, so he did it on purpose.

But he couldn't admit it. If he said that I did it on purpose, it would definitely be over.

"No, no, no, I really didn't think so. You asked me what I was about to say first."

"Humph~" Ding Qiunan gave him a big roll of his eyes and turned his head to ignore him.

There was no other way, so Li Chu could only sit on the bedside and coax him for a while before he finally revealed the matter.

This was really shooting himself in the foot, and he couldn't help but cursed himself secretly.

"How much does it cost to exchange for him?"

"Just take one thousand and two."

Ding Qiunan, who had just received the bundle of money, paused when he heard this, and asked hesitantly: "Isn't it a little little?"

"No." Li Chu leaned on the bedside and waved his hand: "He can't find this price outside. Now the black market is basically around 900."

"Oh, that's okay."

After listening to her husband's words, Ding Qiunan nodded and stepped over him and got under the bed.

When she was about to withdraw money, she thought of something again, stopped and turned to look at her husband, and gestured with her eyes.

Li Chu looked at his wife inexplicably: "What are you doing?"

"Be more conscious. I'm going to withdraw money. You can go out and avoid it."

"No, you can just withdraw the money. Why do you want me to avoid it?"

"My money is hidden secretly. Can you tell me where it is?"

This really made Li Chu dumbfounded. Even the author was on guard against him.

He wanted to put up a fight, but when he saw the look in his wife's eyes, he kept slapping her mouth, but still cooperated, put on his slippers, opened the bedroom door and walked out.

"Okay, let me go out and don't look at where you hide the money, okay?"

Seeing her man go out, Ding Qiunan pursed her lips and smiled. In fact, it was just a joke. The bedroom was such a big place, where else could she hide the money? It was just in the big cupboard.

He counted out twelve knives from the pile of beautiful knives that his man gave him last time, and stuffed the rest together with the ten thousand yuan, and then called him in.

"Here, you count."

"Just count whatever I want." After Li Chu took the money, he threw it on the bedside table.
