Chapter 1086: The Villa in Dongjiaomin Lane

When Lin Hao left, Lou Zhenhua handed him a suitcase and asked the driver to take Lin Hao home.

The main reason was that it was the bicycle Lin Hao was riding, and they thought it was unsafe for Lin Hao to hold it, after all, there were 20 large yellow croakers in the box.

(The previous 200-ton grain transaction should have been for 13 large yellow croakers, but I miscalculated it to 50. I will correct it here.)
300 tons of grain were sold at the price of 10 jin to one silver dollar, totaling 6 silver dollars. The large yellow croaker weighed 312.5 liang (1 grams) each, and the exchange rate of gold (one liang) to silver (yuan) was 300:20, which was exactly large yellow croakers.

I have to say, doing business with connections is really profitable these days, whether it's medicine or food.

Especially in the capital city, the more chaotic the city is, the more money can be made. For example, those grain merchants are making a fortune now.

If the route out of the country is blocked, they can also transport grain to the south.

Even though the price is slightly higher than usual due to shipping costs, they basically sell it for more than 10 times the price.

If the price of grain goes up further, ordinary people will really not be able to afford it.

After Lin Hao returned home, he handed the box directly to Mu Chunhua.

"What is this? It's so heavy!" Mu Chunhua took the box and felt it suddenly sink and she almost couldn't hold it firmly.

"Just open it and you'll know!" Lin Hao said with a smile.

Mu Chunhua curiously opened the small box and saw that it was filled with gold bars. She exclaimed:

“So many gold bars?”

"This is a batch of grain I bought from outside the Great Wall and sold to Lou Zhenhua at the steel mill!" Lin Hao explained casually.

"How much grain did you import from outside the Great Wall? Can you sell it for so much money?"

"300 tons!"

"How much is 300 tons?"

"300 tons is 60 jin. One dollar equals ten jin of grain, which is worth sixty thousand dollars, which can be exchanged for 20 large yellow croakers." Looking at Mu Chunhua's stunned expression, Lin Hao said proudly.

"That's too much money. Isn't Lou Zhenhua your elder brother? Why do you earn so much more than him?"

Mu Chunhua is indeed a kind woman, even a little naive, and has not thought about the issues of cost and risk.

"That's not the case. The price I sold it to her was much lower than the market price. This business is equivalent to saying that he made money and I made money too."

"I offered him one dollar for 10 kilograms of rice, but now on the market one dollar can only buy six or seven kilograms of food. Do you think he made a profit? Of course he did."

Speaking of this, Lin Hao couldn't help but sigh:
"This transaction is a win-win business. The only ones who suffer are probably the ordinary people who eat the food."

Mu Chunhua is simple but not stupid. If she hadn't married Lin Hao, she would just be an ordinary person who eats food.

Thinking of this, Mu Chunhua suddenly said:

"By the way, I told Baofeng about taking a concubine before, and she and her brother have agreed!"

"Oh, didn't she say before that she would think about it? Why did she suddenly agree?" Lin Hao asked curiously.

Before Lin Hao went outside the Great Wall, Mu Chunhua asked Baofeng, but Baofeng said that she wanted to think about it and also seek her brother's opinion!

"Ah~!" Hearing Lin Hao's question, Mu Chunhua said with some pity: "She has no choice!"

"She has been in the Yan family for so many years. She wanted to become Yan Zhensheng's concubine before, but Lin Cuiliu was never happy about it, so she didn't like her very much!"

"Does Yan Zhensheng agree to release the person? I'm afraid he won't be happy about it!" Lin Hao nodded and asked again.

"There is nothing I can do if you disagree!" At this point, Mu Chunhua couldn't help but smiled and said:

"There was a guy named He Yuzhu who looked exactly like Yan Zhensheng. Everyone in the city knew about this!"

"Lin Cuiliu thinks Yan Zhensheng is looking for another woman behind her back, so she is watching Yan Zhensheng like a thief. If he has any other tricks, Lin Cuiliu will never let him go!"

"It is precisely because of this that Lin Cuiliu always finds fault with Baofeng and is dissatisfied with her no matter how she looks at her. She becomes more and more disgusted with Baofeng who has ulterior motives!"

Hearing this, Lin Hao nodded, then raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:

"By the way, how is He Yuzhu, who looks exactly like Yan Zhensheng, doing now? Did Yan Zhensheng recognize him?"

"I recognized him!" Mu Chunhua said with a smile, "Because we look exactly the same, I have to recognize him even if I don't want to!"

"Besides, his son's whereabouts are unknown, so it's not a bad thing to recognize a child who looks exactly like him!"

"Then what about Master He? They have been raising other people's children for so many years, so they should at least show some appreciation!" Lin Hao asked with a smile.

Mu Chunhua thought about it and said:
"I gave that Master He 500 dollars, and He Yuzhu was included in the Yu family's genealogy, and He Yuzhu was changed to Yu Zhu!"

"But we still let Yu Zhu recognize Master He as his godfather, and promised that if He Daqing has no children in the future, Yu Zhu will take care of him in his old age. That's it!"

Lin Hao nodded, feeling that this was a happy ending. Originally, Mr. Yu’s eldest son, Yu Lao Da, helped Yan Zhensheng transport soybeans back, but died on the way. Now, not only is he alive, he also has a wife.

Now He Yuzhu has become Yan Zhensheng's son and has been recognized as Mr. Yu's son, becoming the third generation of the Yu family. With the care of the elders and his uncles and father, he will probably not follow the old path and become someone else's bloodsucking bag.

Although Yan Zhensheng was a little embarrassed this time, he no longer had to create a rift between him and Lin Cuiliu because Mr. Yu forced him to marry Mu Chunhua, and there would not be a series of subsequent tragedies.

Considering Mu Chunhua's future status, Lin Hao did not take the gold bars back, but asked Mu Chunhua to keep them, indicating that Mu Chunhua would be in charge of the family.

After all, Qin Huairu has some financial power in her hands, so Mu Chunhua must have the financial power of the entire family.

Otherwise, no matter who it is, they will feel unbalanced.

Mu Chunhua was overjoyed when she heard what Lin Hao said. Compared with the huge sum of money, she cared more about Lin Hao's attitude.

And Lin Hao did not disappoint her. Letting her keep such a large sum of gold established her unshakable position in this family.

Then he cooked with Qin Huairu and made a sumptuous dinner for Lin Hao.

During this period, Elena came to see Lin Hao again. She had already communicated with her superiors according to Lin Hao's request and confirmed that she would first get a batch of supplies to make some money.

Then he confirmed the transaction quantity with Lin Hao, which was a total of 500 boxes of penicillin, and the price was still two penicillins for one small yellow croaker.

However, the price on the market has skyrocketed by now, and it takes two small yellow croakers to exchange for three penicillins.

If we go by the price on the black market, the price has skyrocketed to the point where one small yellow croaker can be exchanged for one.

But for Elena, Lin Hao felt it was worth it, because Lin Hao planned to let her go to Dayue to open the map and plan future transactions.

Then the three of them played together until late at night. After they fell asleep, Lin Hao went to the warehouse in Ding'anmen.

Because when he possessed the body just now, he found that someone was targeting Lou Zhenhua's grain transport convoy.

After all, it is a transaction of 300 tons of grain, and it would not be good not to take a look. If the news has not been leaked, or there are not many people who know about it, it is better to deal with the aftermath to avoid making things worse.

Later, Lin Hao arrested the two people who were following him not far from the warehouse, and after searching their memories, he sent them directly to Lou Zhenhua. You can do a favor without expecting anything in return, but you must let the other person know, which is the most important means in interpersonal communication.

These two people were indeed from the Bureau of Secrets, and they were just doing normal surveillance. They had previously discovered that someone was transporting food here, so they attracted the attention of the Bureau of Secrets.

Originally, Lin Hao planned to put Elena's 500 boxes of medicine here after Lou Zhenhua transported the food away, and then trade with the other party.

Now that he was being followed, Lin Hao had to consider changing places. As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and all eggs should not be put in one basket.

No, perhaps these transactions should gradually be brought to the surface. There is no need to hide in the dark like rats.

Afterwards, Lin Hao found Lou Zhenhua and handed the two men over to him, saying, "Brother Lou, these two men are now in your hands!"

"This is~!" Lou Zhenhua looked at Lin Hao in confusion, then glanced at the two unconscious people, and then still looked confused.

Lin Hao pretended to be helpless and said: "These two are following you. Next time we have to trade somewhere else!"

He did not say that he was keeping an eye on the warehouse, but directly said that he was keeping an eye on Lou Zhenhua, so that the other party would be more alert. It was definitely not to shift the blame.

"So that's it!" Hearing this, Lou Zhenhua looked depressed. He didn't expect that someone had already set his sights on him.

Then he suspected that it was because he had sold a large amount of grain before that he attracted attention. He just looked at the two unconscious people and said helplessly:
"What about these two people?"

"Whatever you want!" Lin Hao said indifferently: "I've handed the person over to you anyway, you can do whatever you want with him!"

Lou Zhenhua gritted his teeth and then asked his confidant to take the person away first.

At this time, Lin Hao asked: "How is the food transportation? Is the weight okay?"

"No problem, everything has been counted!" Lou Zhenhua said in a deep voice, obviously still worried about the fact that he was being followed.

However, Lin Hao did not continue to comfort her. In this chaotic world, it is always right to be a little afraid and alert.

This time the amount was one third more than last time, and it took almost three hours to transport all 300 tons of grain.

On the way back, Lin Hao once again rode in Lou Zhenhua's old car.

On the way, Lou Zhenhua seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly smiled and said to Lin Hao:
"By the way, Brother Lin, there is a house going to be auctioned in Dongjiaomin Lane tomorrow. I wonder if you are interested. If you can buy it, we can still be neighbors!"

"The villa in Dongjiaomin Lane?" Lin Hao suddenly thought of Wu Youren's villa. Could it be that the villa being auctioned was his house?

"Yes!" Lou Zhenhua secretly encouraged:
"It's so inconvenient to live in a courtyard house. Everything else is fine, except there's no toilet!"

"To use the toilet, you either have to go to a public toilet or get a big water tank and wait for someone to collect the water, otherwise the tank will overflow."

"The villas in Dongjiaominxiang are different. They have sewer pipes built by foreigners, and they all have bathrooms!"

"It's not like you haven't been to my place before. Not only can you use the toilet, but you can also take a hot bath."

"But!" Seeing Lin Hao nod, Lou Zhenhua suddenly changed the subject:

"This villa was previously owned by a receiver named Wu Youren. Some time ago, I don't know who he offended, and he died in the villa, so~!"

Sure enough! Lin Hao thought to himself that he was not wrong, it was indeed Wu Youren’s villa, and there was the stunning beauty next door, Master Liu, wow!
"Villa? You know what? I'm actually quite interested!" Then Lin Hao said with a smile:

"I don't really care if a few people die. In this world, who can say that there is nothing wrong with anyone's house?"

"But I still like the courtyard house. I spent a lot of money to build a sewer pipe there. I also have a bathroom at home, so taking a bath is no problem!"

"Oh, I'm glad you don't mind!" Lou Zhenhua heaved a sigh of relief, but thinking of Lin Hao's words, he asked curiously:

"But if you don't want to live in it, why buy it?"

Then Lin Hao smiled and said, "I plan to buy the villa and open a bank. What do you think?"

"Uh~, pretty good!" Lou Zhenhua looked at Lin Hao in surprise, not understanding what Lin Hao was thinking.

But this is also considered as being neighbors. I originally wanted to ask something, but the car had already stopped and Lin Hao’s courtyard had arrived.

"Okay, then I'll pick you up at Dongjiaomin Lane tomorrow morning!"

"Thank you very much!"

Lin Hao watched Lou Zhenhua's car leave, and had to say that these classic cars looked quite nice.

As for the performance, it is indeed a little worse, but riding in a car is indeed much more comfortable than riding a bicycle.

"It seems necessary to get a car back!" Lin Hao muttered to himself.

······
next day
Lin Hao once again got into Lou Zhenhua's old car and headed towards Dongjiaomin Lane.

When the two arrived at Building 6, Dongjiaominxiang, there were already several buyers inside the building.

"Xian Dengkui!"

"Lou Zhenhua!"

"Why, Lao Deng, you also like this house!"

"Why do I feel like you are scolding me!"

"Really?" Lou Zhenhua said innocently, "Is it because you feel guilty?"

"Hmph, it seems Boss Lou hasn't suffered enough!" Xian Dengkui said in a sarcastic tone.

My goodness, it looks like these two people have a grudge against each other!

But this time it was Xian Dengkui again. His father’s house had been mortgaged to the other party’s casino.

However, because the plot of "Glorious Times" had not yet begun, the casino was only cleaned up and Xian Dengkui was not investigated in depth.

"Brother, what's the matter? Does this guy have a grudge against you?" Lin Hao asked from the side, not taking Xian Dengkui seriously at all.

Lou Zhenhua nodded and said:
"Brother, you've been to the factory before. There were a lot of armed guards standing at the door. You've seen this, right?"

Lin Hao nodded and said, "Hasn't there been any before?"

The steel rolling mill used to have only ordinary guards, and they didn’t carry guns. It was this old bastard who sent a large group of people over to steal things!

"After being discovered by our workers, they simply robbed us and injured several of our workers and guards."

"Since then, I have set up the Security Department and purchased a lot of weapons, especially the PPSh, which I spent a lot of money on."

"Although this stopped him from stealing things from my factory, it also made me employ so many off-duty workers in my factory, which increased my costs a lot!"

Lou Zhenhua pretended not to see Xian Dengkui and communicated with Lin Hao as if nothing had happened.
