Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

This was exactly what Yan Bugui was worried about. If it were someone from out of town, it wouldn't be a problem, as they wouldn't be familiar with the capital and wouldn't have any connections.
But Li Huaide is different. How could someone who has been so influential in the steel rolling mill for so many years not have any manpower? There is only one possibility: this batch of televisions is at great risk.

This is something Liu Haizhong only thought of when he was talking about the second batch of televisions. Since it was so urgent, why didn't Li Huaide bring them all at once?

Most importantly, if it's obvious that something can make money, wouldn't people sell it themselves? Why would they let people like us make so much money?

Yan Bugui always felt there was something wrong here, but he couldn't figure it out. With all the paperwork in order, what was Li Huai worried about?
To be precise, Li Huaide could make so much money selling these products himself, so why would he give those profits to people like him?
From a human perspective, putting yourself in Li Huaide's shoes, would you give away huge profits to someone else, especially given how well the market is selling? No;

Something unusual must be going on. There must be some risks here that I'm unaware of. However, He Yuzhu is unwilling to talk about it, and I can't figure it out myself. That's the real reason for his hesitation!
"No wonder they say a scholar's rebellion will never succeed in ten years. Dad, you're overthinking it. Did you make money on the last batch? Did anything go wrong? No, and it won't happen this time either!"

Yan Jiecheng curled his lips in disgust. Unprecedented wealth was right in front of him, yet the old man was actually looking down on it. What kind of behavior was this?

Liu Guangtian said that his old man was hesitant, and Li Huaide was pressing him for an agreement. If he didn't agree soon, Li Huaide would give the televisions to someone else. It was really...

"Get lost! Do you think we can just ignore this? What if there's a problem with these TVs? I haven't made up my mind yet, and you guys are back first. Tell me, who told you this?"

Yan Bugui was too lazy to pay attention to his stupid son. He only cared about making money. Compared to the huge risks, he preferred not to do this business.
"Liu Guangtian said that if it weren't for my treat, he wouldn't have wanted to say it!"

"madness!"

Yan Bugui was defeated by his foolish son. Why did Liu Guangtian tell his children this information? Wasn't it to hasten his own decision?
Liu Haizhong wanted to get rid of Xu Damao and start his own business, but there was a significant risk involved. If it weren't for the pressure from Li Huaide, would Liu Haizhong be in such a hurry? The answer is no!
"dad……"

"Sigh, if you want to participate, I won't stop you. I only have 50,000 yuan on hand. To participate this time, you need at least 100,000 yuan. That means the four of you siblings have to contribute 50,000 yuan each. Otherwise, we won't do it this time!"

Yan Bugui knew he couldn't stop his children this time when he saw their determination. He had earned 130,000 yuan last time, spent 10,000 yuan on buying a yard, and the rest had to be used to support the old couple. What could he do when none of his four children could be relied on?

"I'll contribute 30,000, and the three of you can chip in 20,000. Is that okay or not?"

Yan Jiecheng was delighted. The more he contributed, the more he would receive. If the old man took all the profits, how would the siblings make money?

"Okay, let's think of a way. The three of us can scrape together 20,000 yuan. If all else fails, we'll borrow some. We must seize this opportunity!" Yan Jiefang gritted his teeth and agreed. Yan Jiekuang and Jie Di also agreed. The old man had already tested it and it was a sure thing to make money this time. Since that was the case, they had to go all in!
"Boss, weren't you going to sell your restaurant? The old man wants it, and he'll give you five thousand as a share, how about it?"

Yan Bugui was preparing to dismiss his children when he remembered what He Yuzhu had promised. He suddenly realized that five thousand was already a lot, and could be considered a benefit for his eldest son. More importantly, He Yuzhu's idea might be able to share some of the risks.
"Sure, no problem at all!"

Yan Jiecheng was secretly delighted. The eldest son is the eldest son. The old man still loves him as his eldest son. He only invested a little over three thousand in the restaurant. Now he has contributed five thousand. Doesn't that mean he hasn't lost anything?

"Dad, you're not being fair!"

Yan Jiecheng's restaurant wasn't worth that much money, and his brothers knew it all too well!

"The remaining 45,000 were divided into 9,000, 10,000 for Jiefang, 10,000 for Jiekuang, and 6,000 for Jiedi, as a token of the father's goodwill."
I'm old, this is all I can do to help you. As for selling it, just put it on the black market, it'll sell quickly. Just be careful, though.

Yan Bugui really didn't want to get involved. After thinking it over, he still wanted to stay put and take one risk. If this risk failed, his retirement would become a big problem.

He always felt uneasy, but he couldn't stop his children from getting involved. He believed that his children and grandchildren had their own lives to live, and that he was too old to participate anymore.
"dad……"

The four siblings looked at their parents, who had been stingy all their lives, with surprise and delight. They never expected such a big surprise. Even though there was less for Jie Di, the old man still gave her a share, even though she was a married daughter!
"Hehe, Dad has been stingy his whole life, it's rare for him to be generous this time. I don't know if this is the right thing to do or the wrong thing. Back then, with my salary, how could you all have grown up smoothly if I hadn't been stingy?"
Hehe, in the entire capital, quite a few people... Remember, you won't go poor from eating or dressing, but you will go poor if you don't plan ahead;
If the times hadn't changed so fast and my husband hadn't fallen behind, our family wouldn't have been left behind so much. At least, I was the one who bought the first TV, right?

All of you are married now, so you need to have a backup plan for everything. From now on, it's up to you. The old man has no money left, so he can only rely on his pension and your mother to make a living.
Jie Cheng, you're the boss. Remember, be extremely careful with this deal. The Liu family wants to kick Xu Damao out, which doesn't seem like a good thing. Be very careful!

Yan Bugui felt that he had aged a lot. During the second transaction, he felt terrified, as if a lot of things had happened.
But the expressions on his children's faces told him that if he refused this time, these children might never come to his door again in their lifetime. Haha, he'd been scheming his whole life, but the younger generation was just pushing the older one aside!
"I understand, Dad. It's the Liu family's business if they want to be kicked out. We weren't involved. Our only goal is to make money. Nothing else is on our minds. I know what I'm doing!"

Yan Jiecheng even wanted to inform Xu Damao of this news to be a good person, so as to avoid being targeted by Xu Damao in the future. After all, Xu Damao was also a beneficiary of the last transaction and was not weak.

More importantly, Xu Damao is a cunning and malicious person who likes to hurt others behind their backs. There's no such thing as a thousand days to guard against a thousand days of thieves, only a thousand days to kill them.
He didn't want to be retaliated against by Xu Damao. All the instigators were from the Liu family. Xu Damao, Xu Damao, if you want to take revenge, then take revenge on the Liu family. I didn't do anything. Haha!
If Yan Bugui knew what Yan Jiecheng was thinking, he'd probably be furious! He prides himself on being smart, yet he's given birth to such a stupid son! (End of Chapter)
