Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

He Yuzhu had no time to care, because the plaza agreement was signed as scheduled.

Upon hearing the news, Lou Xiao'e looked at He Yuzhu in shock: "Is this what you're talking about?"

He Yuzhu nodded in satisfaction: "That's right, that's it. Now we don't have to worry about losing money, right?"

Lou Xiao'e smiled with satisfaction: "I'm not worried anymore. How long do you think this price increase will last?"

He Yuzhu said, "It will probably be at least until the end of the year."

The two were talking when they received a call from Hong Kong about the same thing.

There is no shortage of smart people in this world.

Those business elites couldn't get advance notice like He Yuzhu, but after the Plaza Accord was signed, they guessed that the yen would appreciate.

The call came from Hong Kong, asking for Lou Xiao'e's opinion.

After hanging up the phone, Lou Xiao'e said, "I don't know how the news leaked out. Someone knows that I went long on the yen in advance and wants to talk to me."

"Who are they?"

Lou Xiao'e then named the few families that had spoken out.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu realized they weren't from any particularly prominent families. However, they shouldn't be underestimated.

These people have connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds, and their combined power is considerable.

They came openly and honestly, so He Yuzhu wasn't afraid. What he was afraid of was that they would use underhanded tactics behind his back.

He Yuzhu asked, "Are you going back to Hong Kong?"

Lou Xiao'e said, "I have to go back. The Lou family can't afford to offend so many people."

He Yuzhu told him not to worry and picked up the phone to call Lin Jingyuan.

"Brother, do you have any retired soldiers around here?"

Lin Jingyuan asked, "Why are you asking this?"

He Yuzhu didn't hide anything and told him about it, including the matter of doing multi-yen transactions.

However, He Yuzhu did not tell him about making a multi-yen transaction in advance.

Only He Yuzhu, Lin Jinghan, and Lou Xiao'e knew about this. Lin Jinghan only knew the general outline; only He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e knew the details.

After his initial surprise, Lin Jingyuan asked, "How much money can we make this time?"

He Yuzhu did a rough calculation: "I'd conservatively estimate it at over a billion US dollars."

"How many?"

Even though he had been on the battlefield and was used to big scenes, Lin Jingyuan was still shocked by the news.

He hadn't expected so much money.

"Are there really that many?"

He Yuzhu said, "The lion's share goes to the Lou family, and we'll just get a small portion. What you get will be around ten million US dollars."

Lin Jingyuan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "You're quite arrogant. Do you know how many years it would take me to earn ten million US dollars?"

What do you need this person for?

He Yuzhu said, "Lou Xiao'e is going back to Hong Kong to deal with this matter. Money can be a powerful motivator. I'm afraid..."

Lin Jingyuan naturally understood what was going on and immediately said, "It just so happens that the country is downsizing its military, so I'll find you some people who are willing to go. Someone will come to you tomorrow."

He Yuzhu was taken aback when he heard about the troop reduction. He then remembered that there really was such a thing.

If it weren't for this reminder, he would have completely overlooked this matter.

He Yuzhu quickly reminded them, "What happened to those who were laid off?"

Lin Jingyuan said helplessly, "What else can we arrange? There are simply too many people to accommodate."

He Yuzhu wanted some of these people to work in the factory. Their quality was undoubtedly high, and recruiting them would alleviate some of the country's difficulties.

He then shared his idea with Lin Jingyuan.

Lin Jingyuan was naturally happy to agree, but when he heard that He Yuzhu wouldn't be able to hire anyone until next year at the earliest, he told He Yuzhu to get lost.

He Yuzhu had no choice; most of his funds were tied up in the stock market, and he simply couldn't afford to set up a factory.

After hanging up the phone, He Yuzhu said to Lou Xiao'e, "Those people will be here tomorrow. They are all veterans who have been to the battlefield. When you go to Hong Kong, just find a way to get them some guns." Guns were not a problem for Lou Xiao'e.

Hong Kong in the 1960s and 70s was not safe; the homes of the wealthy were all staffed with armed bodyguards.

In all of Hong Kong, there are very few wealthy people who go out without bodyguards.

The next day, Lin Jingyuan brought eighteen people to the restaurant, including four women.

"These are all my good soldiers, so don't mistreat them."

He Yuzhu said, "Don't worry, they won't be treated unfairly. Did they bring their paperwork?"

Lin Jingyuan nodded: "It's all taken care of."

He Yuzhu said to the group, "You all go and rest and have some food first. We'll set off in a bit."

The group glanced at Lin Jingyuan, and only left after receiving his approval.

Lin Jingyuan waited until they left before curiously asking how they made money.

He Yuzhu then explained the Plaza Accord and its impact.

Lin Jingyuan said with a hint of regret, "If I had known it could make money, you should have told me earlier. It would have been best if our country had also participated."

The possibility of state involvement is very small.

Foreign capital certainly doesn't want other countries to snatch up the profits.

If it gets really big, they'll definitely dig holes and bury people.

He Yuzhu didn't know if the country in his previous life had participated. He felt that it probably had, just on a small scale.

“Our country doesn’t have that much foreign exchange either. You can mention it to some departments. It’s a bit late now, but we can still make a living.”

Lin Jingyuan turned to look at He Yuzhu: "Are you sure?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "As long as you don't do anything reckless, you can make money. But you have to sneak into the village quietly, and don't fire your guns. Also, don't use the country's name, use your personal name."

Lin Jingyuan stood up: "In that case, I won't stay here. I'll go contact a few friends."

After seeing Lin Jingyuan off, He Yuzhu also had Lou Xiao'e and the others taken to the airport.

When they got back to the hotel, Lin Jinghan came over and asked, "I heard my brother brought some people to look for you?"

Lin Jinghan went to Lin Zhijie's house yesterday and didn't come back, so He Yuzhu didn't tell her about it.

This time, he shared the good news with her.

Lin Jinghan's mouth dropped open in surprise: "Can you really earn that much?"

He Yuzhu said, "Of course, would I lie to you?"

"How many of them belong to our family?"

He Yuzhu was afraid she would be frightened, so he made her sit down before saying, "One floor is for my eldest brother and Yushui and the others, and the rest we will share with the Lou family."

Lin Jinghan stood up in surprise: "So much? Our family doesn't have that much money."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. I gave the Lou family three Angong Niuhuang Wan pills, which are life-saving medicines. Taking a little more of their shares is nothing."

Lin Jinghan was still a little worried: "But that's too much. If you're going to do business with the Lou family, it's not good to treat them like this."

He Yuzhu said with a smile, "Their family is not at a loss. Lou Zhenheng has already agreed to this."

Seeing He Yuzhu say this, Lin Jinghan stopped asking questions.

He Yuzhu then explained his future plans to Lin Jinghan, including opening a factory.

Lin Jinghan asked, "Isn't all your money in the stock market? Where did you get the money to build the factory?"

He Yuzhu explained, "When Xiao'e returned to Hong Kong, she brought back an Angong Niuhuang Wan pill. She'll have money once she sells it."

With Lou Zhenheng as an example, He Yuzhu's Angong Niuhuang Wan became particularly popular.

Many people chose to buy it in order to save their lives. However, the Angong Niuhuang Wan in their hands was far less effective than the one in He Yuzhu's hands.

He Yuzhu wouldn't have been willing to sell to them if he didn't need the money.

The one that Lou Xiao'e brought over this time wasn't something just anyone could buy. (End of Chapter)
