The Red Era: The Crowd in the Siheyuan

Chapter 543 Yan Bugui’s New Idea

Yan Bugui just asked, and then added,
"It's not that I doubt you have the ability, but the restaurant has been open for two years, and you have concealed it very well.

We, the neighbors, really had no idea.”

"It was not so clear two years ago. If I applied for a business license to open a restaurant, it would have had a bad impact. I happened to see Dongzi and his friends setting up stalls outside, so I paid them to open one. It also means I have a legitimate business and won't be chased around by the joint defense team."

Hearing this, Yan Bugui's heart was moved, and he asked thoughtfully,

"Zhu Zi, from what you said, the attitude of the higher-ups is clear now? There won't be any reversals in the future, and there won't be any problems with business?"

"Roughly the same,
In 79, when all the educated youth returned to the cities, all the large and medium-sized cities were full of young people with nothing to do.

There have been no problems in the reform and opening up over the years. In order to solve the employment problem, the government will definitely speed up the pace. Otherwise, if things continue like this, there will be problems. "

When Yan Bugui heard He Yuzhu talking about this, he subconsciously thought of the gangsters in the Friendship Store, the video hall, and the vegetable market.

I nodded involuntarily.
"We should find them something to do so they don't have to fight all day long.

By the way, Zhuzi, how about I find someone to open a restaurant with me? I have 1 or 2 yuan, which is definitely enough to open a restaurant, but I don’t know if I can make money. Can you give me some advice?”

"What the hell? Uncle Yan, are you looking for someone to open a restaurant? But who can you trust with such a large sum of money? Can Yan Jiecheng do it?"

He Yuzhu's series of questions really stumped Yan Bugui, because he couldn't figure out who he should trust after thinking about it. With his eldest son's character, he probably wouldn't get any good results.
Just when Yan Bugui was thinking seriously, Liu Haizhong suddenly had an idea and planned to kill Yan Bugui.
"How about this, Old Yan, we open a restaurant together, what do you think?"

When Yan Bugui heard his proposal, he rolled his eyes without hesitation.

"Come on, I'm looking for a partner because I'm old and can't do the hard work of running a restaurant.

You don't even look at how old you are.
If we two old guys open a restaurant together, you won’t make any money even if you work yourself to death.

If you really want to make money, I think you might as well become a trader and trade in textiles or something, you can make a little money there.

Of course, if you have connections, you can make money the fastest by trading approval documents, and it’s not tiring, which is suitable for an old man like you.”

Liu Haizhong didn't care at all that Yan Bugui looked down on him. After all, he had shown him a way to make money. The approval document was something that most people couldn't get, but he could still think of a way.
But Liu Haizhong would not say it in front of He Yuzhu.

"I don't have any connections. You know who my connections were. They were all taken away by the higher-ups a long time ago.

Forget it, if you don't want to, then don't want to. I'll think of another way myself."

Liu Haizhong's words reminded He Yuzhu of Director Lan of the Third Rolling Mill. In the TV series, Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao seemed to be dealing in steel, which was the way Liu Haizhong got along.
However, He Yuzhu did not mention it any more, because Liu Haizhong would remember it sooner or later when he wanted to make money.

Just as he thought of this, he heard Liu Haizhong ask,
"By the way, Zhuzi, Yuejin is getting married, and Yushui and Heying are also coming back from Guangdong Province. Have they boarded the train now? Is your He Nianwei going to elementary school now?"

"I just called. He Ying and my brother-in-law are in the army and can't leave. Only Yu Shui and my eldest daughter-in-law will come back with the children. My eldest granddaughter is going to elementary school. I'll see if I can keep her by my side this time. In terms of education, Guangdong Province is still not as good as our Peking."

When He Yuzhu mentioned education, Yan Bugui, as a teacher, immediately agreed.
"That's for sure. Although Guangdong Province is developing very fast, our Peking is still stronger in terms of education.
Your eldest granddaughter is studying in Peking, and her perspective will be different in the future.

Zhuzi, you said that He Ying and his troops have something going on. Could it be that they need to go to the frontline to fight monkeys? Didn't you think of a way for him to avoid going to the frontline if possible? "

As soon as Yan Bugui finished speaking, Liu Haizhong curled his lips in disdain.

"What do you know, Old Yan? Zhuzi has achieved what he has today, and he has lived a peaceful life all those years. He fought his way through the battlefield.
According to the old saying, the pillars are the generals.
He Ying and Yue Jin have been training in the militia with Zhuzi since they were young, just to join the army and fight in wars.

We in the Liu family don’t have such an opportunity, and our rebellious sons are useless, otherwise I would definitely send Guangfu and the others to the army to serve as soldiers.”

The expression on Liu Haizhong's face made Yan Bugui furious, and he laughed at him.

"Come on, Old Liu, if you really want Liu Guangfu to join the army, there's no way he can't do it. Don't forget that you were the captain of the workers back then, and sending your son to the army was a piece of cake.
But do you dare? I don't think so.

In the 7s, we had such a fierce conflict with the North, but you never thought of sending Liu Guangfu to join the army.
Look at Zhuzi. In 72, when He Ying just turned 16, he was sent to the army. Zhuzi dared to do things that you dared not do.

So the difference between your life and Zhuzi's is not because the higher-ups didn't give you the opportunity, but because you couldn't seize it. Who can you blame?"

"you!"

Seeing Yan Bugui's implicit sarcasm that he deserved to be in prison, Liu Haizhong was so angry that he trembled all over and could not even speak complete sentences.
Seeing the two people arguing, He Yuzhu quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Come on, you two are both so old, why are you so angry? Don't you know that anger is harmful to your health?

Since He Ying is a soldier, he must be prepared to go to the battlefield. Uncle Liu must have his own considerations for not letting Guangfu go. There is nothing to be ashamed of.

You guys have the time to argue here, why don't you go back and think about making money?
After all, money is becoming less and less valuable these days. In the past two years, the term "ten thousand yuan household" was popular, but how many people are still saying it this year?

Think about it carefully! "

Thinking of today's business, Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong both listened to the advice and calmed down.
Yan Bugui even talked about what happened some time ago.

"What Zhuzi said is right.

While we are still feeling proud of our 1 or 2 yuan, some people in the south have already made millions.
For example, the hardware king, the mining lamp king, the screw king, etc., all had so much money that they attracted the attention of the higher-ups, who began to investigate them.
We have just started. You must be crazy to be arguing with you.

Well, let's go back. I have to go back and think about who to partner with for business. I won't say more to you."
