My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 519 Friends
"Mike, I want to buy a batch of fish, do you have any stock?"

Xu Dong directly explained his purpose.

The quantity of purchases this time is large, so it is probably not realistic to buy pork, beef and mutton, and fish is more suitable. Anyway, as long as the sea is not dry, it is a natural big fishing ground.

In comparison, fish is much cheaper than other meats.

"Fish? How much do you want?"

"About two tons!"

The power company has about more than 300 people, and each person weighs ten catties, which adds up to more than 3000 catties, which is less than two tons.

He planned to eat the extra food by himself. There are many relatives and friends in the family, so a share is almost enough.

"Can it be traded with sugar?"

Mr. Mike tentatively said.

Xu Dong frowned: "Isn't cash okay?"

"It's difficult. You also know that meat is in short supply. Besides, the quantity required this time is not small. If you just pay, I'm afraid you won't find any good sources of supply."

"You don't need any good sources of goods. Ordinary goods are fine, and almost everything is acceptable."

Anyway, he didn't eat for himself, so Xu Dong took the initiative to lower the requirements, and he couldn't afford expensive ones because of his limited budget.

Besides, these days, it would be nice to have some meat to eat.

"That's it, I'll help you find it!"

Mike took out his mobile phone first, and then began to check it. He also made several calls during the period, but Xu Dong couldn't understand English, so he couldn't hear anything.

After making the last call, Mr. Mike made an OK gesture.

Xu Dong hurriedly asked: "How do you say?"

"There is a batch of salted fish that needs to be processed urgently, and the other party is willing to accept cash payment, but they do not make any guarantees for the quality of the fish meat, which means that once they are sold, they will not be responsible."

"Is there a problem with the salted fish?"

"Let me tell you straight, this batch of salted fish is made from expired frozen fish, which has been frozen for more than a year. The nutritional value must be greatly reduced, and the possibility of mildew may not even be ruled out."

It turned out to be "stinky salted fish", and it can't be said to be stinky, it should be a level higher than stinky salted fish.

"how did it get here?"

"They are all eliminated from wealthy families, and they will regularly clear their inventory at the end of the year."

"what price?"

"130 million yuan for one ton, 250 million yuan for two tons."

Xu Dong secretly calculated that a catty would cost more than 600, which is nearly half cheaper than the market price, and this is still dry goods, which is acceptable.

"I want it."

Xu Dong agreed on the spot.

"Okay, then I'll get it for you. You can just go to the warehouse to get the goods when the time comes."

"Thank you!"

"It's a small matter." Mr. Mike waved his hand, "Mr. Xu, during the Spring Festival, we plan to go back to Kangaroo Country. Would you like to take your family there for a trip?"

Xu Dong shook his head and sighed:

"Can't go away, no time!"

"That's a pity. Kangaroo Country has developed well in the past two years. If the weather is not too hot, I think it will definitely become a popular place to live."

"Let's talk about it in a few years. Maybe my parents will live there. You also know that the winter here in Yanjing is really too cold."

"Indeed, after so many years, our family has not been able to adapt to the climate here. I am thinking about going back to retire after retirement?"

"Why don't you go to the beautiful country?"

Xu Dong was puzzled.

The beautiful country is the paradise of the rich. Regardless of other factors, if you simply choose a retirement residence, whether it is food, housing, or medical conditions, the beautiful country will beat other countries.

Mr. Mike shook his head: "Compared with those capital tycoons, my assets are not even comparable to Little Finger. It's too unstable over there. Let's stay in the country honestly and have a good life!"

"I think it's okay. The other side has been quite stable for the past two years!" Xu Dong said in surprise.

"What you see is only superficial. If you think about the huge gap between the rich and the poor on the other side, it will be a ghost if it can be stabilized. And the 'Yuan World' they made, I think it is spiritual white flour, and sooner or later something will happen."

"What can happen?"

Xu Dong expressed his doubts, those big bosses of capital are not vegetarians, they have absolute capital and absolute force, and at the same time hold the big killer of "Yuan World".

Flying dragon riding on the face, just ask how did you lose?
Mr. Mike smiled: "To paraphrase a sentence I saw recently, I think it is very suitable."

"That sentence?"

"If you don't explode in silence, you die in silence."

"Hiss, it's quite vivid!"

The more Xu Dong thought about it, the more creepy he felt.

"Anyway, I won't go to the beautiful country, and I won't let my family go there. It's a fallen paradise."

Mr. Mike said earnestly.

Until lunch time, Xu Dong was still thinking about the conversation just now. He thought about his family's future destination, whether to take root in China or to cultivate abroad?
Or walk on two legs?
The dinner prepared by Mrs. Mike was very simple. Each person had a thick pan-fried steak, a large bowl of vegetable salad, and a bottle of [-] red wine at the end.

Xu Dong cut a small piece of steak and put it in his mouth, he couldn't help giving a thumbs up:

“Delicious, tastes really good.”

"Thank you, as long as you like it!"

Mrs. Mac looked relieved.

Their family is today, thanks to the person in front of them, the key is that the other party has a good character, not the kind of pure businessman who cannibalize people without spit out bones.

In Daxia's words, it is humane!

Xu Dong picked up the water glass: "Mike, Ma'am, I will replace the wine with tea, toast you two, and wish you an early New Year by the way."

"Cheers, Happy Chinese New Year!"

"Happy Spring Festival!"

……

Early the next morning, as soon as Xu Dong left, Lao He sent his granddaughter to the courtyard.

Yang Lina led the little girl directly to the sons' bedroom. The temperature was low in the winter morning, and the three brothers hadn't woken up yet!

Originally, she wanted to take care of it.

But my mother-in-law firmly opposed it. In the words of the old man, the three Dabao brothers were born prematurely, and they were born with insufficient foundation. Adequate sleep is more effective than anything else.

Because of this, except for going to school, the three brothers can sleep in normally at other times, and the little guys are so beautiful that their noses are bubbling.

"Dong dong dong..."

Xiao Bao was the lightest sleeper. When he heard the knock on the door, he rubbed his eyes subconsciously, then jumped off the bed and ran to open the door with bare feet.

"Brother Xiaobao!"

Mengmeng called out sweetly.

Seeing that it was Mengmeng's sister who came, Xiaobao suddenly woke up, and immediately closed the door. He was only wearing a pair of underwear at the moment!

Yang Lina said angrily: "You still know how to close the door, it will be half past eight soon, and everyone is sleeping like lazy pigs, are you ashamed?"

The little girl covered her mouth and snickered.

Ten minutes later, the three Dabao brothers sat in the dining room neatly dressed, ready to have breakfast.

As for the Coco sisters, they followed their grandfather to the bakery to work in the winter vacation. Xu Dong worked hard to train the sisters.

The two sisters go to work, not only with high wages, but also to accumulate game time.

The rules are simple, every day you go to work, you can exchange for one hour of game time.

The eyeballs of the triplets turned red with envy.

I just hate myself for being too young.

Madam Xu quickly cooked the breakfast, and the three Dabao brothers rushed forward and brought the food to the dining table.

"Mengmeng, do you want to eat some more?"

"Grandma, I ate this morning, I'm not hungry!"

The little girl patted her belly, she looked very cute.

Xu's mother peeled an egg for Mengmeng: "Then eat a boiled egg. Grandma's eggs are all free-range eggs, which are very nutritious."

"Thank you grandma!"

"It's so cute!"

After breakfast, the triplets started playing in the yard with Mengmeng. The excavator and motorcycle were pushed out, and even Mark was unleashed.

Mengmeng is not very interested in toys, but has a "deep affection" for Mark. From time to time, she wants to pet the dog's head, or help Mark comb his body hair.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the little girl has never lacked toys since she was a child, but she lacks pets like Mark.

At ten o'clock, Niu Niu also came.

Since going to elementary school, Dabao and Niuniu have been "estranged" a lot because they are not in the same school, but they come and go frequently during the winter and summer vacations.

"Sister Niuniu."

Mengmeng hurried forward to say hello.

Niu Niu reached out and pinched the little girl's face:
"When did you come, Mengmeng?"

Usually, the three Dabao brothers usually sleep until after nine o'clock, and it is useless to come early, it will only be annoying.

"I got there at [-]:[-]."

As soon as the words fell, Wang Xiujuan came over with her grandson and granddaughter. The children rarely meet each other, and both parties intend to use the holiday to bring the children closer.

Yang Lina pulled Xiao Zhang Xue to her.

"Come here and let Auntie take a look, my dear, our Xiaoxue has become beautiful again."

Zhang Xue is two years younger than the triplets and two years older than Mengmeng, and is just in the middle.

"Aunt Yang, you have become beautiful too!"

Zhang Xue was taught well by Zheng Yan. The little girl not only studies well, but also has a very sweet mouth, which is comparable to Lele.

"Haha, Auntie is getting old."

Yang Lina has always liked Xiao Zhangxue very much.

At this time, Xu Ma came over with a fruit plate, and the temperature was also rising, and there was still a little time before noon, so it was time to eat fruit.

"Come on, come and eat some fruit!"

"Thank you grandma!"

The little guys quickly gathered around.

Only at a good friend's house can they eat fruit to their heart's content, otherwise they can only wait for the Chinese New Year, or simply treat tomatoes as fruits.

Wang Xiujuan followed suit and ate a strawberry: "Lao Zhang, Nana, how about we play a few rounds while the weather is good today?"

"Okay, where's Miss Zheng? Why didn't you come over?"

"She's gone back to her mother's house. Isn't it the New Year's Eve soon? Send some New Year's goods home."

Yang Lina nodded: "Then I'll call and call Sister Du over!"

Sister Du is Director Li's wife, and the two families have been in contact with each other for many years, and as the friendship between the two deepened, "Aunt Li" also unknowingly became "Sister Du".

Originally, Song Lin was the most suitable and she was close, but the other party had just given birth and was in confinement!
"Tell her to come here quickly, don't go back at noon, and deal with it here."

Wang Xiujuan exhorted.

The situation has improved a lot in the past two years, and eating is no longer as sensitive as before, and it is much more casual.

Half an hour later, Aunt Li came over with her son Li Tao. Little Li Tao was as old as Mengmeng, and he was familiar with the three brothers Dabao, so he quickly integrated into the children.

The yard suddenly became lively!
ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
