Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

Niu Dazhuang wasn't angry. He slightly raised his chin and said, "Have you ever personally experienced that a woman you've slept with would have other intentions?"

"You're something else, why don't you call me Big Awesome? Ugh! So annoying. I heard there are lots of people here who know how to read incense, maybe..."

"Come on, don't forget who you are now. Just relax. If you relax, I guarantee I'll make your wish come true before you go back this year!"

Bai Hongmin was already addicted to popcorn because of Niu Dazhuang, and now she had another reason. This guy was having popcorn every night, and after eating the popcorn, he would even leave the popcorn-making equipment at his house...

A few days later, Sunday arrived, and Bai Hongmin came over early. She was still hoping to have some twice-cooked pork, seeing how neatly dressed Niu Dazhuang was dressed.

"Are you going out again?"

"Let's go together. We've been away for three years; we can't go back empty-handed!"

"Buying gifts to go home is driving me crazy! All the clothes I buy here I won't be able to wear!"

"Why don't you buy your nephew and niece some chocolates or candies?"

"You think you're so smart? In this sweltering heat, if you bought it so early, it would all have melted."

"That's true. So, are you coming with me or not?"

"Of course I'm going! It's boring for me to stay in my dorm alone, so I'll be your advisor!"

Niu Dazhuang deliberately looked Bai Hongmin up and down and nodded: "I must say, she's a real clothes hanger."

Bai Hongyan proudly puffed out her chest and swayed her slender waist: "That's right, I think I'm just as good as my sister!"

"Let's go then!"

Niu Dazhuang has really fallen for it. This guy never seems to get tired when he's out shopping.

They had agreed to buy gifts for their family, but now, Bai Hongmin has already bought two dresses for herself, while Niu Dazhuang hasn't bought a single piece of clothing he was planning to buy.

"Xiaobai, let's be reasonable, okay? I bought it for you, why won't you let me buy a few more!"

"I don't want to wear the same clothes as everyone else back in my hometown."

"You said you bought clothes in Hong Kong but can't wear them back home, so what are you worried about?"

"Can't I wear it at home? Can't I wear it for you to see?"

"I can't argue with you anyway, so I'm not going out with you next time. Want to buy anything else? If not, let's go eat out, I'm hungry!"

Back at work, while Bai Hongmin was taking a nap, Niu Dazhuang secretly ran away.

"This little girl is so clingy!"

Men are quick when it comes to shopping; he didn't buy any ready-made clothes, but directly bought several bolts of polyester and several bolts of dark blue wool...

Carrying several bolts of cloth, I left the mall, found a secluded corner, stored them in my spatial storage, and came out again. I rode a 28-inch bicycle, a 26-inch bicycle, and a small tricycle for children, making over ten trips to the mall.

Let's try another shopping mall and keep going...

The purchasing power of the British pound and the US dollar was indeed strong at this time; 1 pound could be exchanged for 14 Hong Kong dollars, and 1 US dollar for 6 Hong Kong dollars.

A brand new bicycle costs HK$180 each, so ten bicycles would only cost HK$1800, which is less than £130 after replacement.

Niu Dazhuang has over 30,000 pounds in his account. He also has over 50,000 dollars.

Small radios, the cheapest is only HK$35, and the most expensive is only HK$85...

After a busy afternoon, the space now has twenty more bicycles, ten 28-inch and ten 26-inch, thirty radios, and thirty children's tricycles.

Five bolts of pure white Dacron fabric, ten bolts of pink fabric, two bolts of light gray fabric, and two bolts of military green fabric.

Niu Dazhuang rushed over before the Chow Tai Fook jewelry store in Tsim Sha Tsui closed.

Xia recognized Niu Dazhuang, a major client, first.

He quickly bowed and greeted them: "Welcome, Mr. Niu!"

"I hope I didn't keep you from getting off work!" Niu Dazhuang said politely.

"No, no, I'm always at your service!"

Niu Dazhuang casually placed three large yellow croakers on the counter. "One tael each. Make me thirty bracelets, with good craftsmanship and no expense spared. Preferably unique. All should be 58mm in diameter, not the kind that's perfectly round."

"Understood. Any gold bracelet that fits, as long as the size isn't too outrageous, will do. Gold hairpins, gold brooches, gold necklaces, longevity locks, what do you think?"

Niu Dazhuang grinned slyly: "Does this humble servant have a golden bell?"

"Sir, please wait a moment while I show you. If you don't find one you like, we also have a sample catalog. You can choose a style and pick up the goods in a few days!"

"The style doesn't matter, but you have to match it with those little clips!"

"A small clip? Clip it in what place?"

Niu Dazhuang looked at Amei: "You don't have a boyfriend, do you?"

Ah Mei was taken aback: "No, if Mr. Niu..."

"I didn't mean anything by it. These clips are so small, one of them goes on every golden bell," Niu Dazhuang said, gesturing with his little finger.

"Oh, and the hair clips should also be pure gold."

"Yes, sir, I'll remember that and make it for you as soon as possible."

"Okay, no rush, give me a hundred! And for the gold to make the bells, use your shop's. Will you be able to make these in half a month?"

"I'm sorry, no. The thirty gold bracelets you requested, each with a different design, will all be handcrafted by a master craftsman. It will probably take at least two months."

"Okay, I'll come back in November to pick it up! I'm off."

Anyway, we're not short of money now, so it's good to prepare more.

They had already walked out of the jewelry store when Niu Dazhuang suddenly stopped. Amei was right behind him, smiling broadly as she saw him off.

Niu Dazhuang suddenly stopped, nearly collapsing in his arms, and gave an awkward laugh: "Is there anything else, sir?"

Niu Dazhuang leaned down and asked in a low voice, "Do you know any reliable owners who buy luxury watches?"

"Sorry, I don't know him, but my boss does. I can ask him for you tomorrow."

Niu Dazhuang doesn't have a hobby of collecting luxury watches. He still has more than ten luxury watches in his space, so it would be better to exchange them all for cash.

Niu Dazhuang started taking frequent leave again, not for any other reason than that he was about to go back home and there were still food coupons at home.

Although you can buy fine grains on the black market, you still have to go out late at night. In Hong Kong Island, as long as you have money, you can buy any fine grain or meat, even though it's much more expensive than back home.

But does Niu Dazhuang still ask the price when he buys things now?

More than ten luxury watches sold for only HK$15. Niu Dazhuang was indeed getting a bit cocky; he didn't even care about HK$15.

In less than a month, the money was almost gone. Whole slices of pork cost HK$4 per catty, and Niu Dazhuang had stockpiled 10 tons, which amounted to HK$8.

It wasn't that Niu Dazhuang wanted to buy so many; it was because his family was large. He roughly counted 17 women, all of whom had children, some with one child and others with three.

There are more than 30 people in this group. If each person eats half a pound of meat a day, that's about 20 pounds a day.

That's over 7000 jin (3,500 kg) a year. That's about 3.5 tons. These 10 tons of pork, no matter how they're prepared...

Top-quality white flour costs HK$2000 per ton, so 10 tons would cost HK$2.

Rice is cheaper at HK$0.85 per pound, so 5 tons would cost HK$8,500.

Peanut oil is HK$2.4 per jin (500g), and Niu Dazhuang also bought a ton for HK$4800.
