Siheyuan: It’s so nice to be Lao Liu

Just as Liu Xiaoshan was talking nonstop, a pair of big hands pulled Liu Xiaoshan aside.

This person was Liu Xiaoshan's brother, Liu Dashan. He said apologetically, "Purchaser Yan, please don't be embarrassed. My brother is very impetuous. Please don't take it to heart."

He turned to Liu Xiaoshan and scolded him, "Behave yourself. Don't you see that everyone has questions to ask? Why are you here to cause trouble?"

Everyone burst into laughter when looking at the two brothers, and Yan Jiefang was also amused by them.

Seeing Liu Xiaoshan's aggrieved look, Yan Jiefang came to his rescue and said, "Comrade Dashan, it's okay. I don't take it to heart."

Then he asked everyone: "If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

A sturdy man in his forties in the crowd asked in a low voice, "Purchaser Yan, I want to ask if you want animal skins? I have a complete tiger skin at home, do you want it?"

The sturdy man felt a little uneasy and nervous when he asked the questions. It might be because he had asked other buyers and got unsatisfactory results, so he felt a little unnatural when asking the questions again.

As a modern person who was reborn, I was a little stunned when I heard that they were going to sell tiger skins. Tiger skins are a national protected animal. But then I thought, people are not able to get enough food now and are starving to death. Besides, tigers are not extinct. What's wrong with eating a tiger?

After figuring it out, Yan Jiefang did not ask about the tiger skin. Instead, he asked excitedly, "Comrade, since you have tiger skin, do you still have tiger penis and tiger bones?"

Yan Jiefang's excited expression confused the sturdy man, who thought to himself, "It's okay to ask about tiger penis, I can soak it in wine, but why ask about tiger bones?"

Although the sturdy man didn't know what Yan Jiefang was thinking, he answered honestly: "I soaked the tiger penis in wine, and the tiger bones are also at home. I removed the bones and meat and placed them on the beams of the house."

Yan Jiefang had a plan in mind. Since he had come across tiger penis wine, he couldn't let it go. He would give this fellow villager a high price later.

With the tiger bones, I can brew tiger bone wine and send it to those big leaders to increase their affection, which will also be beneficial to my future.

"Comrade, please bring all the tiger skins, tiger bones and tiger penis wine from your home. I will take a look at the quality. If there is no problem with the quality, I will definitely give you a satisfactory price."

Yan Jiefang looked at the sturdy man and said sincerely, "However, the price I offer for tiger skin will not be very high. As you know, not many people want tiger skin, and our factory does not accept it. If the quality is good, I will take it and find a buyer in the city."

"On the contrary, the big shots will definitely want tiger bones and tiger penis, and they can be sold at a high price."

Anyway, Yan Jiefang had no intention of making money from the villagers, so he told the story.

Seeing that Yan Jiefang was sincere, the sturdy man said, "I'll go home and get it now," and turned around and went home.

Yan Jiefang looked at everyone again and said, "Do you have any other questions? If not, let's line up and come one by one."

After seeing that everyone had no problem, he turned to the village chief and said, "Village chief, please find someone to help me weigh it. I will keep the account."

The village chief didn't think much about it and shouted directly to Liu Dashan in the crowd: "Dashan, come over and help buyer Yan check the scale."

"Okay, Village Chief, I'll be right there."

After Liu Dashan responded to the village chief, he handed the items in his hand to his younger brother Liu Xiaoshan who was standing obediently beside him.

He walked over quickly and said with a silly smile, "Purchaser Yan, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Comrade Dashan, have the villagers put their goods on the scale and read the number to me. I will calculate the accounts and record what everyone wants to exchange."

Yan Jiefang pointed at the scale at the village chief's house and explained to Liu Dashan.

"to make."

As he said this, he directed the villagers to weigh the things they brought one by one.

Because there were so many people and they brought a lot of different things, it took more than two hours to weigh and record all the villagers' goods.

In addition to the tiger skins, tiger bones and tiger penis wine sold to him by the strong man, he received a total of more than 200 kilograms of fresh pheasants and rabbits, more than 200 kilograms of dried meat, and a lot of mushrooms, about 600 kilograms, a total of more than 560 yuan worth of goods. Even if he did not purchase wild boars, with today's purchase volume, he would have completed a month's task.

The tiger bones and tiger penis wine were of high quality, and although the tiger skin had a slight flaw, Yan Jiefang still gave a high price for it, directly giving fifty yuan.

Because Yan Jiefang came with sincerity, every household took out their own stocks. The next purchase volume will not be as much as this time, but will definitely be much less.

Due to the enthusiasm of the villagers, the tofu they brought was not enough to share. However, Yan Jiefang promised that when the villagers helped him deliver the food to the city today and brought it back, he would give everyone the tofu they were owed.

When settling the accounts, the villagers only asked for a small portion of the money, and most of it was exchanged for food.

Fortunately, before coming, he asked Chief Liu of the Purchasing Department for a lot of cloth coupons, grain and oil coupons, and most of the villagers asked for grain, otherwise the cloth coupons and grain coupons he brought would not be enough.

Looking at the oil ticket in his hand, Yan Jiefang thought that he had to find someone to make a set of tools for making oil. There was no shortage of soybeans in his space, so he could make some oil for backup. Anyway, he had a vacant courtyard, and he didn't have to worry about people discovering the secret of his space. He just had to put the things in the courtyard in advance and let others take them away.

Looking at the statistical data and the villagers waiting on the side, Yan Jiefang said to everyone: "Everyone is here, I will tell you the amount of food we want to exchange. If there is no problem, let the village chief count the total."

"Liu Dashan's coarse grains include 120 kilograms of corn flour, 150 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and 50 kilograms of pumpkin..."

After Yan Jiefang read out the exchange amounts of all the villagers, he asked, "Is there any problem with the amount?"

Seeing that everyone shook their heads, Yan Jiefang handed the list to the village chief Shuoda: "Village chief, please find someone to help you check it again. My calculation result is 3,400 kilograms of corn flour, 3,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and 2,000 kilograms of pumpkins. You check it here, and once you confirm it is correct, you can't change it. We will give it according to the final number."

When the village chief heard the numbers reported by Yan Jiefang, his whole body trembled with excitement. He didn't feel anything when the number was small, but the total of more than 8,000 kilograms of grain was enough for the villagers to have enough to eat. He felt his eyes getting a little red, and tears were swirling in his eyes, as if they could fall at any time.

The village chief took the paper slowly with shaking hands, and began to calculate the numbers one by one, suppressing his excitement. After calculating twice and finding the same result as Yan Jiefang, he handed it to Yan Jiefang and said excitedly: "No problem, I once again thank Buyer Yan on behalf of all the villagers."

If it weren't for Yan Jiefang, the food they exchanged for these goods might not even be half of what they got, so the village chief was so excited.
