The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

Seeing everyone practicing, He Yuzhu didn't think much of it and continued to improve his other skills.

After all, He Yuzhu knew that there was a huge difference between level nine and level eight skills;

Moreover, his level nine physics skills enabled He Yuzhu to fully realize nuclear fusion.

It's important to know that this technology was impossible to replicate in later generations.

However, He Yuzhu, with his level nine physics, was able to figure it out.

This shows how powerful level nine skills are for He Yuzhu.

Therefore, He Yuzhu didn't care about nuclear power plants at all, since nuclear power plants were just an application of nuclear fission and also emitted radiation.

Even so, nuclear power plants still require top-tier technology.

He Yuzhu knew that if he reached level 10, his skills would be sufficient for space programs.

However, a level 10 system would probably be thirty years from now.

After all, the proficiency level is 100 billion, and this proficiency level cannot be increased significantly.

After all, He Yuzhu now possesses knowledge that surpasses that of everyone else on this planet.

the next day.

He Yuzhu decided to stay home from work for the time being and see what had happened in the past few days.

Just then, He Yu ran back with the newspaper. You see, Chen Xueru used to bring the newspaper back.

Since He Yu became the deputy director of the office, she has developed a love for reading newspapers.

After all, most newspapers these days are about national policies.

So He Yu would pick up the newspaper every day and put it at home, but Chen Xueru would read the newspaper every day when she had nothing to do.

Because He Yuzhu is involved in technology, he doesn't read newspapers unless he has something else to do.

He Yu took the newspaper and handed it to He Yuzhu, saying:

"Brother, look, so many people have been sentenced, they've all been executed!"

He Yuzhu looked at today's newspaper and was surprised that the government had acted so quickly.

Many of those who bought these items were executed. The details weren't explained, but the charges were all related to speculation and sabotage of the domestic economy.

He Yuzhu was taken aback when he saw the names of these people. He knew many of these names.

These were all prominent businessmen from before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but in He Yuzhu's original memory, these businessmen were...

They weren't good people, but they were very clever. After the troops entered the city, they donated a lot of supplies.

Since no one had any lives on their hands, they escaped unscathed.

But now they've all been executed.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu recalled what Gu Zhiqi had told him before about those businessmen who were unwilling to go abroad.

That should be all, right?

No wonder they don't go abroad; it turns out they control the domestic black market.

They made quite a bit of money!

Just as He Yuzhu was wondering what was going on, He Yu looked at him and asked:

"Brother, do you know what happened?"

He Yuzhu recounted the previous incident where the government sent businessmen abroad to work, and then said:

"These people probably think that the black market is controlled overseas and the profits are not low, so they are unwilling to take risks overseas."

The government is now starting to purge these people.

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Yu said to He Yuzhu:

"Those people really deserve to die. I thought the black market was set up by those petty thugs!"

He Yuzhu said:

"How could that be? If it were those petty thugs, the government would have cracked down on them long ago."

There must have been people turning a blind eye, plus the nationwide famine a few years ago.

The government probably didn't intend to target these people; things have been good these past two years, and the whole country has had a bumper harvest.

These people didn't stop there. Relying on the money they had earned before, they began to hoard supplies and drive up prices.

The government couldn't stand by and watch any longer, that's why they did this!

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Yu said:

"I see. So, those leaders arrested yesterday were basically these people's backers?"

He Yuzhu said:

"That's about right. They're not the backers, but rather the family members of these businessmen. I guess the government has already investigated them."

Okay, go to work now. There will probably be more action tomorrow; let's see what the government decides.

After all, the existence of the black market is a lifesaver for some ordinary people.

Although it's quite dark, it still has a reason to exist!

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Yu said:

"Brother, the black market is strictly prohibited by the state. How could you say that?"

He Yuzhu said:

"You underestimate the country. If it were truly not allowed to exist, it would have been banned long ago, just like it is now."

Why were the previous arrests all minor incidents?

That's because the existence of the black market allows many people who can't survive to stay alive.

The government must have come up with a policy by now; otherwise, it wouldn't have taken such swift and decisive action to eliminate it.

Trust me, you'll see in time!

He Yu said:

"Brother, I believe you, but you're the one we analyzed!"

Looking at He Yu, He Yuzhu had no choice but to say:

"The reason why things are sold at higher prices on the black market is because they are things that everyone needs, that is, necessities."

Whether it's seeing a doctor, getting married, or eating, it's all necessary.

Medical treatment requires money, and weddings require supplies such as bicycles, sewing machines, and watches. Eating is simple: grains, meat, and so on.

Therefore, these items always command high prices on the black market.

Just like me, I have a lot of industrial tickets or bicycle tickets, radio tickets, and sewing ticket tickets every month.

But I don't need many of these receipts, even if I use them all. Given my status and position, I really don't lack them.

But I still need them, but those who truly lack these tickets are neither capable nor qualified to obtain them.

The only place to get them is on the black market.

Therefore, the existence of the black market is still reasonable, but the government will not ignore this point.

Especially for people in rural areas, many of them have no industrial ration coupons or industrial goods.

Therefore, farmers now have a very high status, second only to workers. But as you know, many rural people dream of coming to the city to eat government-subsidized grain.

Because working in the countryside is too tiring, and people don't get enough to eat, and life is bad.

That's why this happened!

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Yu's eyes lit up and she said:

"Brother, what do you think? Would it be better if I wrote an article on this topic?"

He Yuzhu pondered for a moment, considering the country's actions, then nodded:

"Yes, but you can't write about the black market; just write about the hardships in rural areas."

Don't write anything else!

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Yu nodded:

"Okay, I understand. I'll go write it when I get to work!"

At this moment, Yang Xiaodi said:

"Send it to me when you're done writing it, and I'll publish it for you!"

He Yu said sweetly:

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

He Yuzhu said:

"Xiao Di, you can write about the difficulties and high costs of accessing medical care in rural areas!"

He Yuzhu had been to the black market and knew that many rural people who sold things would not go to the black market unless someone in their family was sick, getting married, or struggling to survive!
