Siheyuan: If I marry Qin Huairu, I will become stronger by showing off.

Chapter 161 The light of righteousness, don’t do obscene things

After hearing Wu Youde's words, Yan Zhensheng did not make an offer first.

He hesitated for a moment and then said: "Comrade Wu, it's like this. We can only rent this place to you for three months at most. I have to use it when spring comes."

"This time is a bit short, do you mind?"

Three months at most?

Wu Youde felt happy, it was a coincidence.

He didn't plan to rent it for a long time. He would only use it for a few days at most. Once the materials were unloaded, he would just notify Lou Zhenhua and send someone to take them away.

If you rent for a long time, it will be a waste!

However, he is quite curious now. Why does this Qinfangju want to rent out the yard?

This courtyard has a shop-in-front and factory-in-the-back layout. Just when he was visiting, there were people coming to buy pickles.

Isn't this still in business?
  "Boss Yan, why is this?"

"Hey..."

Yan Zhensheng sighed, looked at Mr. Niu and Wu Youde, and said with a wry smile: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. Business is hard to do..."

……

After some explanation,
  Only then did Wu Youde realize what was going on. The war had just ended and materials were scarce, so the price of raw materials had increased, not even a little bit...

This results in thin or even no profits.

In fact, the problem of thin profits can be solved by increasing product prices.

But Yan Zhensheng said that these pickles have been at this price for decades, and the common people have recognized this price, and if the price goes up...

it is good.

Don't buy it!
  Not only will you not buy it, your reputation will be ruined, and I won’t buy from you in the future.

Now that it is winter, it is not a good time to make pickles, so Yan Zhensheng decided to suspend the work in the factory behind and stop making pickles.

Just keep the front store open. Anyway, there is still some inventory in the warehouse, which should still be sold for a while. This can be regarded as cutting down expenses to the maximum extent and maintaining operation.

Other than that,

Yan Zhensheng's family is not at peace now. Under the numerous visits and pressure from the street director Xiao, he really can't escape and can't hold on any longer...

Not long ago, he secretly divorced his eldest wife Lin Cuiqing.

When the incident was revealed, Lin Cuiqing became furious and grief-stricken. She made trouble at home every day and even went on a hunger strike to commit suicide.

On the other side, the second wife, Mu Chunhua, was very angry when she learned about this and felt that she was very wronged!

It was obviously not my idea!
  But she was scolded so badly by Lin Cuiqing that even the servants thought she was the one who instigated Yan Zhensheng to divorce Lin Cuiqing.

Being scolded for no reason and being unfairly wronged made Mu Chunhua so angry that she immediately refused to let Yan Zhensheng enter her room...

Got it!
  Yan Zhensheng suddenly became a rat in the bellows, suffering from both sides and getting no relief from either side.

There was nowhere to go to sleep at night, so he had no choice but to go to his father's house and share a bed with him, which naturally led to a scolding.

How old are you that you can’t even deal with your own mother-in-law?
  Waste snacks!

The house was messy and noisy, and Yan Zhensheng had no intention of doing business. It happened that the market was currently in a downturn, so he wanted to stop for a while.

This big place behind Qinfangju is idle, so it is better to rent it out for a period of time to make some income.

……

After listening,
  Wu Youde's eyes flickered, and he looked at Yan Zhensheng with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

This guy is so miserable!
  He really wanted to say something, buddy, go home now and keep an eye on your eldest wife. If you don't be more careful, your eldest wife will be slept with by this guy next to you.

The eldest wife who was serving him was so moved that she was willing to elope with him!
  "Comrade Wu."

"Comrade Wu?"

"Ah? Oh, Boss Yan."

Wu Youde came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Boss Yan, it's okay. To be honest, my rental time is not long, just one month."

"A month?"

Hearing this,

Yan Zhensheng suddenly felt a little disappointed. He was still thinking that he would not be able to rent it out for at least two months?
  If you rent for one more month, you will get one more month of income.

It is not easy for him to support a large family now...

"Comrade Wu, is it enough for you to rent for one month?"

"In this way, if you rent for two months, I will give you a cheaper rent for the second month. What do you think?"

Yan Zhensheng thought for a moment and said, "The first month's rent is forty yuan, and the second month's rent is thirty-five yuan. I'll give you five yuan cheaper."

"How's it going? Hey, are you sincere enough?"

Ah!
  Something that darkens your heart!

Wu Youde sneered in his heart, how dare he ask himself forty yuan a month for such a poor place?

It is true that the space behind Qinfangju is very large, but apart from being large, it has no other advantages.

The houses, sheds, and pools here are all quite old and have been used for many years. From this point of view, this is really an old store!
  But don’t pay attention to this when renting a house. Rent new rather than old. The older it is, the less valuable it is.

What's more, the surrounding environment of this place is also very ordinary. It is basically a large courtyard, focusing on poverty, and everywhere is dirty and messy.

So, overall, 40 yuan a month is really expensive!
  Although I am not short of money, I am still willing to be the wronged!

If this is a big mistake, the other party will not only not thank you, but also mock you in his heart that you are a stick, a person who is stupid and has a lot of money.

Why bother?

Wu Youde shook his head and said lightly: "One month, twenty."

"twenty??"

Yan Zhensheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head repeatedly, frowned and said: "This can't be done, twenty is not enough?"

"No, no, no, twenty!"

"Comrade Wu, look at the big land I have here, nearly two acres. It can store a lot of things. Aren't you using it as a warehouse? This is the most suitable place for me!"

"I'm not bragging. You can't find another place as suitable as mine within a radius of twenty miles."

"How about you rent it for two months, and I'll pay it to you on the 35th of January, 70 yuan! Do you like it?"

As expected of a businessman, he is eloquent. Wu Youde glanced at him and said with a smile: "Boss Yan, actually I can't rent it for a month, since you said thirty-five yuan a month."

"Then how about I rent it for half a month, add a zero, and give you seventeen yuan?"

"Well..."

Yan Zhensheng was a little confused. Why would you bring such a counter-offer?

It costs seventeen yuan to rent for half a month. Although it seems that the price is not low, it is only half a month...

Just when he was secretly wondering whether he had lost money or gained money, Wu Youde said again: "Boss Yan, let's leave it like this!"

"Seventeen yuan, I will rent your place for half a month, and you will take possession of the house after half a month."

"If it works, I'll give you the money now. If it doesn't work, forget it. I'm still in a hurry!"

Yes, it’s a loss!

Yan Zhensheng sighed inwardly, if he had known he would have agreed to rent it for twenty yuan a month.

Although the rent is seventeen yuan and half a month, the courtyard is empty and it is completely wasted!

"to make."

Yan Zhensheng nodded and said with a helpless smile: "Then I'll do as you say!"

"readily!"

Wu Youde immediately took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Yan Zhensheng, asking for a written receipt.

Yan Zhensheng nodded in agreement and asked Baofeng to get pen and paper.

After writing the receipt, Wu Youde asked Yan Zhensheng to seal the door from the front shop to the backyard. To be on the safe side, he went and bought two large iron locks himself.

One locks the door leading to the front store from the backyard, and the other locks the back door from the backyard.

So far,

The pickle factory in Qinfangju was owned by Wu Youde for half a month.

After finishing all the work, it was already noon.

Yan Zhensheng took the money, wrote the receipt, and left early, leaving only Mr. Niu and Wu Youde.

It doesn't make sense for a meal to follow Mr. Niu around.

Immediately, Wu Youde invited Mr. Niu to have a meal at Bianyifang.

This Biianfang is also a time-honored brand in Beijing. It is far better than Quanjude in terms of operating time and heritage.

Bianyifang was a restaurant opened during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. As of 1952, it has a history of more than 500 years! !

More than five hundred years! !
  This is Wu Youde's first time here. He listened to Mr. Niu's recommendation, saying that the dishes here are complete and rich in variety, including roast duck, Shandong cuisine, and other cuisines.

Wu Youde was very interested and once he tasted it, he was full of praise.

At this lunch, the guests and the host had a great time, and they returned home happily.

……

After eating,
  After drinking some more wine, Wu Youde planned to go home and hug Qin Huairu for a while, since he had nothing to do anyway.

Don't worry about the supplies now, we have to wait for two more days.

You can't just make an agreement with Lou Zhenhua in the morning, and then inform him that the supplies are in place in the afternoon, and let him bring the money to pull the goods, right?
  That's so fake, even pigs will get suspicious!
  So, we can only wait a few more days.

After riding all the way to the courtyard, Wu Youde was stunned as soon as he entered the door.

It's not that Qin Huairu is doing anything...

But there is actually another person in the room!

"Mr. Wu, you're back? That's great. I didn't expect you to come back so early today!"

"Forehead……"

Wu Youde looked at the young and pretty little girl in front of him and was a little surprised, "Xiao Cuier, why are you here?"

The little girl in the room turned out to be the little maid in Chen Xueru's shop. She was the one who helped Qin Huairu and Xue Chunmei try on clothes last time.

"Your boss asked you to come to me?"

"Yes, Miss, I have something to ask you. I want to invite you over, so let me invite you!"

Xiao Cuier looked at Wu Youde and asked with a smile: "Mr. Wu, do you have time now?"

Wu Youde did not comment, but asked: "Did she want to see me for anything?"

Xiao Cuier shook her head.

Wu Youde looked at Qin Huairu and thought for a moment. Since Chen Xueru specially asked people to come to him, something must have happened...

Alas, it seems that I won’t be able to take a nap today.

"Huairu, let me go there."

"Well, Brother Wu, you should be busy with your work. I just had lunch and will be practicing my calligraphy later."

"it is good!"

Wu Youde looked at Xiao Cuier and walked out as he said, "Let's go then. How did you get here?"

"Mr. Wu, I'm here."

"Then you take my car."

"Thank you Mr. Wu."

"You're welcome, your lady and I are friends and have a good relationship."

Wu Youde got on the bicycle, turned around and said: "Sit on, hold me tight, I'm about to start!"

"Mmmmm~"

In the winter, everyone wears very thick clothes, three layers inside and three layers outside.

The physical isolation intensity is at least level ten!

Therefore, Wu Youde asked Xiao Cuier to hug him tightly out of concern, without any other thoughts...

We, the light of righteousness, will not do such obscene things~
