Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

It wasn't just Qin Jingru whose world collapsed here.

If it were just about her conflict with the He family, her third senior brother would never have brought it up in this setting.

He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "Senior brother, you don't need to test me."

In my current position, I know a lot of things, but I can't tell anyone.

So, I'd better stay home and not go anywhere..."

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, the third senior brother frowned, pondered deeply, and finally nodded.

He understood He Yuzhu's concerns.

It was reform and opening up that caused this trouble.

Among He Yuzhu's other fellow apprentices, there were also some intelligent people.

Even those fellow disciples, whom I never thought about, still have their own social circles.

There are always people hoping to get some information from He Yuzhu.

Ordinary people were still confused about the reform and opening up, feeling that it had nothing to do with them.

Meanwhile, smart people are already analyzing the subtle nuances in the news reports, trying to find opportunities for growth.

Therefore, it is absolutely true that before the new century, CCTV's evening news program was the largest commercial information platform.

For ordinary people who wanted to get rich, back then, as long as they could understand the meaning behind the news broadcast, they were basically guaranteed to succeed.

Even after the turn of the century, it was pretty much the same.

However, by then there were too many smart people and more channels to obtain information, so the commercial value of the news broadcast was not as important as before.

This is similar to the profession of trademark squatting in later generations. Every year, the program list for the Spring Festival Gala is where those people place their bets.

Those people will try every means to get the accurate program schedule as soon as possible.

Then came a frenzy of trademark registrations.

Registering across the entire industry would also be a significant investment.

But if they win just one bet, those people can make a fortune.

Those fellow apprentices who usually didn't go to the Wang family to deliver New Year's gifts all went this year.

He just wanted to meet with He Yuzhu and get some useful information out of him.

For example, regarding the reform and opening up, what specific industries will it be implemented in, and which industries will the central government focus on supporting in the short term?
If you know even one thing, a smart person can find a way to make money from it.

This is also why He Yuzhu doesn't dare to speak carelessly now.

"Are you going to pay New Year's visits?" the third senior brother asked again.

He Yuzhu scratched his head and said, "Go ahead! Otherwise, my master's wife will really blame me."

However, senior brother, you should also greet your fellow disciples and talk about your brotherhood when you get together.

Don't do anything reckless or impulsive.

He Yuzhu spoke in a rather lazy tone, as if he had an indifferent attitude.

But the third senior brother clearly understood the warning in his junior brother's words.

He certainly didn't think that He Yuzhu, now of higher status, looked down on his old acquaintances.

He knew very well that this junior brother clearly distinguished between inside and outside.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have let him buy the shop before the news came out.

He took He Yuzhu's advice and invested in two shops.

The market price had already risen somewhat at that time.

But as soon as the news of reform and opening up was released a few days ago, people started contacting him through brokers to inquire about prices.

The two shops have already increased in price by two or three thousand each.

In other words, in less than half a month, he earned half a million yuan.

Even the small shop that the Wang family invested in has increased in value by more than a thousand yuan.

This kind of money-making speed is unimaginable for ordinary people.

In the eyes of his third senior brother, He Yuzhu had now truly become a living god who could turn stones into gold and whose words were worth a thousand pieces of gold.

"By the way, Zhu Zi, some people want to buy and some want to rent the shops I have now."

"What do you think we should do?" the third senior brother asked again. It wasn't that he was eager to fleece one sheep; the key issue was that he really didn't understand this kind of business practice.

According to his wife, they should take the money and sell the two storefronts while the current social issue is still relevant.

Just wait for the price to drop, then buy it back.

Who knows, the money from selling the two storefronts now might be enough to buy back three more in a while.

He Yuzhu smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about short-term fluctuations."

I'll only tell you two things: one is that the storefront you own can support three generations of your family.

Another thing is that those who are clamoring to rent houses now are all gamblers.

There's no need to pay attention to those people.

Even if you're going to rent, don't sign any long-term contracts; six-month leases are enough.

Also, once you receive the rent, don't even think about saving it.

It's good to keep some money at home for emergencies.

You know Xiushui Street, right?
There are more and more street vendors; let's go there and get a few storefronts facing the street.

I want them regardless of size.

That's a more worthwhile investment than putting money in the bank.

I've only told you this, so please don't tell anyone else. ..."

This is He Yuzhu; he is quite generous to those he cares about.

The third senior brother glanced around before chuckling softly, "Alright, I'll treat you to drinks after I collect the rent."

"Dad, the car is here!" He Ping called out from the doorway.

He Yuzhu bumped his shoulder against his third senior brother; between brothers, everything was understood without words.

Lou Xiao'e's office in Beijing had long provided He Daqing with a car for his use.

But since there were so many people today, He Yuzhu asked Lao Mo to take them there first.

When they got home and were lying in bed, Liu Ting asked He Yuzhu, "You said your brother-in-law, Xiao Shi, asked you if you could invest in the south, why didn't you respond to him?"

He Yuzhu put his hands behind his head and said helplessly, "His name is Steven, which is a foreign name."

What is your Chinese name?
Jiang Hanyu?
very messy.

They don't use proper names; they spend their days doing crooked and unorthodox things.

Ignore their probing; I'm giving Tuantuan face today.

Otherwise, that fake foreigner wouldn't even be qualified to eat with me.

"Heh..." Liu Ting was amused by He Yuzhu again.

But thinking back to that cheap brother-in-law's behavior at the dinner table, it was indeed hilarious.

He would occasionally boast about his so-called study abroad experience in developed countries.

The key issue was that He Yuzhu simply ignored him, leaving the atmosphere somewhat awkward throughout.

Liu Ting was also very glad. She had originally suggested that since it was just family eating, there was no need to go to a restaurant.

You can just make it at home.

If that fake foreigner were to come to her house, she'd probably be so embarrassed she'd get goosebumps.

Overall, the gathering went well, and nothing major went wrong.

However, there are also some flaws.

Just like the couple from Yushui's family didn't go.

According to Yu Shui, she only recognized one biological brother.

She didn't dislike the two wives' families, but she didn't need to be too close to them either.

He Yuzhu did not force the rain.

He knew very well that his younger sister had been thinking about Ren Yuan all this time.

I have absolutely no interest in engaging in empty pleasantries with others.

"Hey, you sent that chubby kid from the Xu family to the south back then, just to wait for this reform and opening up, right?" Liu Ting was just making conversation. (End of this chapter)
