Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

The young widow looked at He Yuzhu indignantly, as if to say, "Isn't this too much of a bully?" Exchanging RMB can be linked to the Jia family, how can this be tolerated?
The Jia family has no man to support them. They are poor financially, but they are not something that can be bullied by anyone, not even He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that the young widow didn't know about Jia Zhang's glorious deeds. Well, maybe everyone had forgotten what happened back then?
After all, it was none of their business, so after laughing, unless they occasionally thought of it, they basically kept silent about it. At that time, Jia Zhang was arrogant and acted like a wealthy family, which offended many people.
After the gold yuan coupons became worthless, the neighbors laughed at him. Jia Dongxu was depressed for a long time, and it even affected the relationship between mother and son.
Jia Zhang also lost the financial power of the Jia family. Qin Huairu knew it very well. It was also from that time that Jia Dongxu stopped obeying Jia Zhang in everything.

As for the neighbors, they tried to suppress their laughter while looking at Jia Zhang with a half-smile. Even now when they think of it, they still feel happy.

Most people didn’t care about the exchange He Yuzhu mentioned. There weren’t many families in the compound that could exchange their money. Several families didn’t have any savings at all.

One person supports a whole family, and it is good enough that they don't starve. Where does the money come from to save? But it does not stop them from watching the fun;
The Jia family back then had saved a lot of money, but Jia Zhang was always looking down on this and that. Isn't it the price of old Jia's life?
In the end, isn't it the same? If you are not born with good fortune, even if you get it, God will take it back in another way;
The Jia family became rich because of the death of Old Jia, but fell into poverty because of Jia Zhang, and Jia Dongxu was depressed for a long time; now, Old Jia and Young Jia are both dead, but this shrew is still alive, it's all fate!

"Ahem, Chunni'er, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to mention the Jia family. It's just too representative. Please forgive me!"

He Yuzhu looked at Jia Zhang stubbornly, staring at Chunnier with an unprecedented seriousness, which surprised the young widow;
After entering the compound for so long, this was the first time He Yuzhu looked at her directly, and he looked at her very seriously;
She suddenly felt a sense of being valued. It wasn't that she was making a fuss, but after being in the compound for so long, He Yuzhu and Cai Qiuyue were too difficult to communicate with;

Whether they took the initiative to greet or used the excuse of borrowing something, the He family would keep them at a distance. If He Yuzhu and his wife were not good at socializing, it would be fine, but as far as she knew, they were not. It was really like a tiger eating air and having nowhere to catch;

This is why she had this feeling. It’s not that she cares too much, it’s just that it’s too difficult!
"Oh? Director He, please tell us. The public has sharp eyes. I believe everyone will make a fair judgment!"

"Ahem, you should know the gold yuan notes that everyone used before 49, right?"

He Yuzhu tried hard to hold back his smile. You asked me to say this. It would be nice to relive the classics again and make everyone happy!

"Know!"

Chunnier looked at He Yuzhu in confusion and nodded. She knew that the gold yuan coupons were money. Although the money was very painful, it was still strong for a while.
She also witnessed the era when things went from being valuable to being worth less than waste paper. Later on, folks simply refused to use them and resorted to bartering!
"The Jia family had gold yuan notes that could be exchanged for 600 million yuan. After the peaceful liberation of Beijing in 49, the higher-ups issued a notice to exchange them within a limited time. Jia Dongxu told his mother, Jia Zhang, that she must exchange them within the time limit.

Jia Dongxu thought her mother would obey and change it back, thinking that her family was considered a wealthy family, but she didn't expect that Jia Zhangshi didn't have enough confidence in RMB and didn't change it;
Finally, a year had passed since the exchange period, and when Jia Dongxu found out, the amount was already 50, and such a huge fortune had turned into waste paper;
Therefore, I use the Jia family as an example to warn everyone that if the superiors tell you to change, you should change, but you will procrastinate;
Now that the second set of RMB is about to be circulated, and the exchange period is about two months, don't wait and see based on your own guesses or rumors. If you can't exchange it for a long time, don't complain.

Some people may think that exchanging 10,000 yuan for one yuan is a big loss. This kind of thinking is unacceptable. If the ratio is small, the price will definitely go down.
For example: Auntie, tell us the price of the meat you bought this morning! " He Yuzhu tried very hard to hold back his laughter, but it was different for the neighbors. Many of them held their stomachs while laughing.

Several years have passed, but it still makes people laugh, especially He Yuzhu's line about Jia Dongxu fainting on the money. What a great joke!

"Zhu Zi, pork is now 8,000 yuan a pound, and it is often not available. I had to go there several times before I could buy it!"

Yi Li was stunned, then blurted out the unit price, and looked at Jia Zhang with resentment. You stole the meat and didn't admit it. Don't even think about taking advantage of me in the future!
"It seems that the price of meat has increased by a thousand yuan. Ahem, pork is eight thousand yuan a pound. Then the second set of RMB is eighty cents a pound.
Everyone, tell me, is it different from before? Since we have to change it sooner or later, we might as well change it back sooner. Everyone, tell me, is this the truth? "

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, the neighbors all nodded. At first, they used RMB because they were worried that the boss would not stay in Beijing for long and the RMB would become waste paper.
This is not everyone's fault. When the warlords were fighting, one warlord came today and issued his own military notes, and the next warlord came tomorrow, and the previous military notes were invalidated and his own military notes were issued, causing everyone to suffer heavy losses and lack of confidence.
It was normal to have doubts when the first set of RMB appeared, but now that the government’s foundation is stable, there are naturally no doubts!
People of this generation rarely keep their money in the bank, not even the He family;
First, there was a lack of confidence in banks. Before 49, banks could go bankrupt at any time, including those run by foreigners. To put it bluntly, they were not confident.

Secondly, the Chinese people have a unique mentality. They believe that money should not be exposed. If you put it in a bank, the people in the bank will know how much money you have and they will feel uneasy!
It is out of this kind of thinking that He Yuzhu specifically reminds everyone to change when it is time to do so, and don’t waste it!

At this moment, Chunnier was shaking with anger. It turned out that her family had such a "glorious" history.

It was in vain for her to question He Yuzhu angrily just now, but in the end, she was the one who was embarrassed;

Good mother-in-law, how many embarrassing things are there that she doesn't know? Can you tell her everything at once and don't let her lose face?

Jia Zhang was very distressed and felt very anxious. She used to be very rich, and she could eat roast duck and eat out occasionally.
Now she is poor and destitute, greedy and has to steal, how miserable she is;

At that time, I was afraid that the money would become waste paper, so I kept putting it off. After a long time, I forgot about it. When I suddenly realized it, the money had become waste paper.
If I had cashed it, how could I be in such a predicament now? That money was all my own savings; now? I can't even take out 500 yuan;
She had forgotten about it, but when Sha Zhu brought it up again, she was still heartbroken. My money! (End of this chapter)
