Return To 1977 Chapter 446: The next set
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
So far, the renovation of the Hong family's old residence is basically on track. Hong Yanwu had nothing to worry about anymore, and since the acquisition of hardwood furniture had come to an end for the time being, he just wanted to take a breather.
But a break was a break. His body rested but his mind did not rest. His mind was spinning, trying to figure out how to deal with Director Wei who had blackmailed him for two large color TV sets.
For this matter, he specially called his "little wife" here, first asked about Director Wei's current situation, and then gave some instructions. A plan that can make Director Wei heartbroken is just laid out...
Director Wei and Hong Yanwu are different.
He doesn't understand what "when the moon is full, it loses, and when the water is full, it overflows."
On the contrary, he is a true believer in the two sentences "Don't take advantage of the bastard" and "If you don't do it for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you."
He is not afraid of people poking his spine, and does not believe there will be retribution. Instead, he adheres to the supreme truth of "you have the right to use it, and it will become invalid after it expires".
In his eyes, he only knows that the more famous cigarettes, wines and teas the better, and household appliances must fill at least three houses under his name. This is why he opened his mouth and asked Hong Yanwu for two color TV sets.
At first, he had a color TV set up in the three-bedroom apartment where he lived, and the old black-and-white TV he replaced was delivered to the one-bedroom apartment under his name.
But there was another two-bedroom apartment that was still vacant. This made him happy for a few days but then turned into discomfort. He couldn't sleep because he was thinking about it. No, in the end, I filled this "blank" with a little "dirty".
(Note: Cuaner, a capital dialect, means strategy)
Not only was Director Wei happy about this, his wife was also crazy about it, praising him for being smart.
So that night, the second color TV that I got turned out to have some medicinal value.
With excitement, Director Wei and his wife actually had some lingering feelings of newlyweds, fighting for three or four rounds without fatigue, almost alarming the children next door.
But it has to be said that it was Director Wei's insatiable temperament that not only made Hong Yanwu feel vindictive against him, but also gave Hong Yanwu a big loophole to exploit. Make him determined to tell Director Wei the story of "The Fisherman and the Goldfish".
Of course, before everything begins, it often starts with something good and then slowly turns bad.
This is not only a common law of the objective world, but also from another perspective, man-made designs often have to follow this path to facilitate things.
This is called, "If God wants to make him die, he must first make him mad." Only extreme happiness can give rise to sadness.
So on this day, Director Wei received a call from Hong Yanwu. It sounded like he had been hit by another big pie.
Hong Yanwu actually said on the phone that his buddies were getting married on May Day this year and wanted to have a grand affair. But there is a lack of good smoke and good wine. If Director Wei wants to have wealthy famous cigarettes and wines, his buddy is willing to buy them at a price 20% higher than the official price.
Director Wei asked Hong Yanwu, "How much do you want for your buddy? If it's just a few bottles of wine and a few cartons of cigarettes, then you have to add 30%..."
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu replied, "If you need that little thing, I'll do it for him. He and his wife's family have many relatives, including seven aunts and eight aunts, totaling dozens of households." In addition, he also wants to keep some for himself, so that he can help others in the future. If you have the top ten famous wines and cigarettes of "Daqianmen" and "Dachongjiu", I will give you as much as I want.
Then Director Wei can still be unhappy? The various "tributes" accumulated in his family for many years have long been "silted up".
It doesn’t feel bad to take ordinary things to my colleagues in the Housing Authority. But good wine and cigarettes are of high value, so he would be reluctant to give them away just to gain popularity.
Originally, those things had no other place except for his own enjoyment, that is, to pass them on to his boss and his old father-in-law.
But those things have an expiration date after all. If you leave them for a long time, it will become difficult to smoke as the cigarette burns. The wine cannot be kept if it is not packaged tightly. Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable for you if half the bottle flew away?
This is great, in the blink of an eye, Hong Yanwu’s buddies will come to your door with rattling banknotes. With his abundant supply of goods, it is easy to make a fortune.
Haha! Happy things are coming from heaven! When wealth comes, you can’t stop it even if you want!
Director Wei was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. He was still giving Hong Yanwu instructions on the phone.
"Xiao Hong, tell your buddy that my house is a cigarette shop. He is welcome at any time and he can choose whatever he wants. But one thing is that you ask him to prepare enough money. We have to settle the bill on the spot... …”
On the other end of the phone, Hong Yanwu cursed secretly, "Wei, you are just a thief."
But he said, "Don't worry. This is a marriage. This is only once in a person's life. Can my buddy still be able to dig and shrink? But when is the right time? You have to give it time, We can find someone to borrow a tricycle..."
When Director Wei heard that he had borrowed the car, he felt even better. But after thinking about it for a moment, I realized that this matter is causing quite a stir. Don't forget, whether it's his family's things or this kind of transaction, it needs to be kept secret, so it's better to carry it behind someone's back.
Definitely not at night. Moving things is like stealing and attracts more attention. Not even on weekends. The neighbors are all resting at home, so there must be many eyes. So when is the right time? Of course it's working time.
So Director Wei said, "Of course I hope it will be early tomorrow morning. But can you do it?"
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu agreed to everything very happily.
"What's wrong with that? Just take a day off. Let's make an agreement and we'll go to your house at eight o'clock tomorrow..."
"Ah, yes, it's just the two of us... Oh, I forgot to tell you. The one I'm getting married is the one I brought last time, the one I gave you the TV... Yes, yes, you still remember... ”
"Ah? Yes, maybe I went to your house and saw good smoke and wine, so I asked me to ask, this guy is thoughtful enough..."
"Okay, hey, see you tomorrow..."
Just like that, that night, Director Wei and his wife had another night of passion through the beauty of longing to make a fortune. The next morning, Hong Yanwu and his "little wife" arrived at Director Wei's house on time.
As soon as I entered the door, the "little wife" was very polite. He nodded and bowed, and kept saying, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
After coming in, seeing that Director Wei was the only one in the house, he immediately took out two thousand yuan and slapped it on the table.
This great energy made Director Wei's eyes light up and his heart felt at ease. He quickly opened the door of the room where things were stored and let his "little wife" go in and pick whatever she wanted. He then set out to make tea and pour water.
Although Director Wei is not taking advantage, he will also vomit a few mouthfuls of "blood" depending on the situation when others can bring him benefits.
So this time he treated Hong Yanwu and his "little wife" with unprecedented enthusiasm. Not only did he make good tea, but he also opened a box of "Greater China".
He kept talking nervously, "Try it, taste it, the taste of this cigarette is different from others. That's where I am. Otherwise, if you want to see this thing, you have to go to the bureau level or above. The leader’s home..."
Hong Yanwu complimented wisely.
"Aren't you the director? The original deputy director just wanted to do some practical work, so he stepped down to make way for a more talented director. We all know about carrying forward the style..."
The words of the "little daughter-in-law" are more popular.
"Director? The director can't compare to you, the great director. You have too many good things here. Fortunately, I had the foresight to bring a lot of big cardboard boxes. I'll go down and get them. I'll be back in a while. When you get something, just take a note and we’ll do the math in the end. Don’t worry, if these two thousand are not enough, there will be more!”
Director Wei’s nose is almost full of snot bubbles. "Okay, okay, let me help you..."
Hong Yanwu tried to dissuade him.
"No, no need. Your floor is not high, it's just the second floor. Just sit down and let him do it by himself. You don't know, but this is doing him a big favor. He has to treat us to dinner at noon. What..."
"That's right! I have to treat you to a good meal at noon! You choose the floor..."
With the long echo in the corridor, the "little wife" disappeared.
Hearing this, Director Wei was even more excited to tremble. I think Hong Yanwu and the others are really sensible.
It took almost two hours of waiting for the "little wife" to come back with a stack of cardboard boxes. The three of them gathered everything together.
To say that Director Wei is really not bragging, not even the cigarette shop has so many interesting things!
The specific numbers of tobacco and alcohol are as follows:
8 cartons of Zhonghua brand cigarettes, the official price is 6.5 yuan per carton, and the actual price is 7.8 yuan per carton.
There are 12 cartons of Youyi brand cigarettes. The official price is 5.4 yuan per carton and the actual price is 6.48 yuan per carton.
There are 50 cartons of Peony brand cigarettes. The official price is 4.7 yuan per carton and the actual price is 5.64 yuan per carton.
There are 25 cartons of Qianmen brand cigarettes. The official price is 3.6 yuan per carton and the actual price is 4.32 yuan per carton.
There are 35 cartons of Xiangshan brand cigarettes. The official price is 3.7 yuan per carton and the actual price is 4.34 yuan per carton.
There are 36 bottles of Maotai liquor. The official price is 8 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 12 yuan per bottle.
There are 40 bottles of Wuliangye. The official price is 3.7 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 4.34 yuan per bottle.
There are 30 bottles of Luzhou Tequ. The official price is 3.6 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 4.32 yuan per bottle.
There are 24 bottles of Gujing tribute wine. The official price is 3.4 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 4.08 yuan per bottle.
There are 28 bottles of Yanghe Daqu. The official price is 3.4 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 4.08 yuan per bottle.
There are 48 bottles of Jingcheng Tequ. The official price is 2.85 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 3.42 yuan per bottle.
Tongzhou Laojiao has 56 bottles. The official price is 2.7 yuan per bottle and the actual price is 3.34 yuan per bottle.
And in the end, it was all added together, and I don’t know what coincidence. The total, including cigarettes and alcohol, was 1,977.62 yuan, which was almost exactly 2,000 yuan.
At this time, the "little wife" made another "situation". He only took out two bills from a wad and said they would use them for dinner later, and gave the rest of the money to Director Wei.
Director Wei was overjoyed on the spot when he took the one thousand nine hundred and eighty. Subconsciously, he wanted to count immediately, but as soon as he did so, he suddenly realized that Hong Yanwu and his "little wife" were still beside him. This is a bit inappropriate, and I feel embarrassed.
Hong Yanwu is quite generous.
"It's better to count the money in person. Don't have any worries, otherwise everyone will be embarrassed if something goes wrong. I think you can just count it here, and I'll help move the box downstairs first. There are too many things, including twenty-two boxes of wine, plus those cigarettes, we have to haul two carts..."
Hearing that the "little wife" also agreed, Director Wei smiled and started counting the money.
After counting the money, the two of them started moving things down together. Hong Yanwu first drove away a cart full of liquor. After waiting for him for more than forty minutes, it was almost half past eleven when he came back with an empty bike.
At this moment, Director Wei and the "little wife" had already moved the rest of the cigarettes and alcohol downstairs, smoking and waiting for him. As soon as she saw his face, the "little wife" quickly took the tricycle and gave him the twenty yuan for lunch.
"Thank you for your hard work. Let me take care of you this time. Brother, I have already made plans with Director Wei. Let's go have roast duck for lunch. I think that's all. Why don't you accompany Director Wei?" Go to the restaurant first and wait for me. I will finish this trip in a while and go to the roast duck restaurant to find you..."
The idea of "little daughter-in-law" is good, and Hong Yanwu is not polite. He claimed that he had not eaten breakfast in the morning and was really hungry. After saying that, he not only took the money, but also took two bottles of "Beijing Special Music" from the box on the ground and asked Director Wei to follow him.
Director Wei was happy when he saw that he could drink good wine again, but after all, he was considered a cultured person, so he really couldn't save his face. Pretentiously, I had to help put things on the tricycle before leaving.
At this time, the "little daughter-in-law" said, "Director Wei, don't worry about it. I'll do it myself. You guys should leave quickly. It's hard to get on the bus. It only takes ten minutes for me to go back on a tricycle. I'll go back." I’ll chase you on my bike. You order first, and I’ll be there as soon as the food is served. Besides, I’m going to get off work at noon soon, so you don’t want to attract attention...”
This is reasonable. Director Wei is really afraid that people will have too many eyes, so he won’t make false claims. I left happily with Hong Yanwu.
Don't mention it, we will meet again at noon, it really won't waste much time. After only waiting for about ten minutes, the "little wife" arrived. The time is just past twelve o'clock.
The three of them changed glasses and cooked two roast ducks together. Even the twenty yuan was not paid, and Hong Yanwu paid eight yuan in advance.
In addition, the two of them took turns flattering each other and toasted frequently. It made Director Wei feel so comfortable.
After eating, they continued to brag, and after finishing their drinks, they continued to brag. Until almost three o'clock, the waiters turned over their chairs and waved brooms and mops to attack people. They dispersed without finishing their thoughts.
When he got home, Director Wei, who was drunk, was already mixing garlic under his feet. He searched for the keyhole with the key several times before opening the door.
Then he stumbled into the bedroom, fell on the bed, and fell asleep without even taking off his glasses.
This is such a sweet dream! In the dream, Director Wei collected two thousand yuan from the one thousand nine hundred and eighty yuan, divided it into two deposit certificates and deposited it into the bank.
According to the interest rate of 5.04%. After five years, it will be...it will be 2,540! He is still accepting gifts, and he might be able to sell cigarettes and wine for another two thousand yuan. If you want to save another five thousand yuan for five years, that will be six thousand...the chicken lays the egg, the egg lays the chicken...
But at this moment, before the "chicken" and "egg" could start another cycle, Director Wei was rudely awakened from his dream.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his wife shaking him eagerly. He was still shouting, "Old Wei, Old Wei, get up quickly!"
"Haha, don't worry, I've got the money! One thousand nine hundred and eighty, it's in the drawer of the cabinet outside..."
Director Wei thought his wife, who was off work, was eager to see the money he made from selling cigarettes and alcohol. But it doesn't matter that my wife grinned and started crying.
"Bullshit! Get up and take a look. Our big color TV and four speakers are gone! The drawers have been rummaged through and it's a mess! There are still 1,980! We have all our own money. No more. The thief who suffered a thousand blows didn’t even have a piece of steel left! Do you understand that our house was stolen?”
"Ah!" As soon as these words came into his ears, Director Wei was jumping up and down. He hurried out of the room. But soon he started to curse too!
"What the **** kind of **** is this! My color TV, my four speakers...and that money, that money! Tell me, why did he steal from me today! Oops... ...No, no...my heart..."
