Siheyuan: Three slaps slapped my brother Shazhu

Chapter 138: Being looked down upon and almost being taken advantage of

Wang Zhen looked at He Yushui in surprise as he knocked rhythmically on the gate.

He had been to this yard before, and was brought by an introducer. Of course, the introducer also came with the black market manager and did not knock on the door himself like He Yushui did. He heard that the rhythm of the knocking should be a secret code between He Yushui and Ba Ye and others.

"You little naughty boy, finally you're here. I've been waiting for you." It was Old Hu who opened the door. When he saw He Yushui, he quickly reached out to pull her in.

"Mr. Hu, please wait a moment, I brought a friend with me." He Yushui stretched out his hand to stop him and pulled Wang Zhen in.

"Why does this guy look so familiar?" Old Hu walked around Wang Zhen, but couldn't remember who this person was for a moment.

"Hello, Mr. Hu, my name is Wang Zhen, and I have been here before." Wang Zhen immediately greeted him politely.

"Look, this man can't refuse to accept his old age. And your memory, Mr. Hu, is not good either! Haha!" He Yushui laughed.

"Don't laugh at Mr. Hu. He has a bad memory." When Ba Ye heard the voice, he came to the front yard. After hearing what He Yushui said, he hurried to rescue Mr. Hu.

"Hmph! You are disrespecting the elderly. You guys continue chatting while I go make some tea!" Mr. Hu waved his sleeves and left angrily.

"Come in and sit down." Ba Ye invited the two into the house.

"I didn't expect that you two knew each other. I'm curious about how you two met. Xiao He, did you bring the price list?" After sitting down, Ba Ye asked He Yushui with a smile.

"We got to know each other through fighting. Haha, I have prepared the price list a long time ago. Let me show it to you." He Yushui took out the price list of home appliances from the cloth bag and handed it to Ba Ye.

"Are you kidding me? Can you fight with your small body?" Ba Ye took the price list and teased with a smile.

"Master Ba, you don't know that Xiao He is very skilled and can fight very well."

Wang Zhen really did not lie about this; he was telling the truth.

"Is this true? I didn't realize that someone as small as you, Xiao He, could fight!" Old Hu walked into the room carrying the brewed tea.

"There are so many things you don't know! Humph!" He Yushui took the teacup proudly and drank the tea leisurely.

Ba Ye also looked at the price list of home appliances. He thought the prices were very reasonable, and then handed the price list to Mr. Hu for him to take a look.

"Xiao He, if I want the goods, when can they be shipped?" Ba Ye asked as he sat down with a teacup in hand.

"The goods will arrive in three days at the earliest. If there are not many, I can put them directly in the small yard, and you can pick them up at my door like before."

In fact, she could take it out now, but of course she couldn't tell anyone. Giving it three days would give herself some time, after all, she had other things to do.

"Okay, then I'll give you the deposit and the required quantity now, and you can put it directly into the yard in three days." Ba Ye looked at He Yushui and said.

"Okay! You two can discuss the sales matter among yourselves. Don't worry, you two are my only distributors for now."

"I'll go to the black market first and come back to get it later."

He Yushui didn't want to get involved in sales issues. After all, she was a wholesaler and sales were not her responsibility.

I left the courtyard and came to the black market. It was almost New Year, and there were quite a few people selling things on the black market.

There are dried sweet potatoes, millet, red dates, eggs, bacon and so on. There are many kinds, but no rain water is needed.

She came mainly to see if she could pick up any bargains or something.

She strolled around slowly but felt bored. She already had these things, and some were even better than those on the black market. There was no need to buy them.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw an old man carrying a bamboo basket into the black market.

Seeing that the old man looked very nervous, she guessed that this was probably his first time in the black market. She suddenly became curious and wanted to see what was in the old man's backpack.

So He Yushui followed the old man from a distance and saw the old man find a place to squat down, open the backpack, and put the things wrapped in oil paper in front of him.

Wow! It’s ginseng!

He Yushui saw clearly that it was processed ginseng. It looked very old, with complete ginseng roots, and was well preserved by the old man.

"Grandpa, how much do you want for this ginseng? Do you want money or grain?" He Yushui hurried over to ask the price.

The old man looked up at the thin young man in front of him who was asking for the price. He didn't look like someone who was buying ginseng, but rather someone who was here to fool around.

"My ginseng is not cheap, do you have money?"

He Yushui was a little depressed. This was the first time she was looked down upon here, even though she was a millionaire!

"Old man, since I'm asking for the price, you must be rich, right? But you have to give me an honest price. If you ask for an exorbitant price, it won't work."

After He Yushui finished speaking, he took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and showed it to the old man.

The old man's eyes suddenly lit up. With this money, he could find wives for his sons.

"Young man, my old grandfather used to be an imperial physician. This ginseng was prepared by him personally. You can tell by its appearance. If my family wasn't in urgent need of money, I wouldn't have sold it."

The old man picked up the ginseng wrapped in oil paper and soft cloth and held it in front of He Yushui, asking her to look at it carefully.

He Yushui put her nose close to it and smelled a strong ginseng scent. This was a ginseng of very good quality. She was not sure about the year, but she was sure that it was a good thing.

"Old man, just tell me how much it is! As long as the price is right, I'll take it!"

The old man took back the ginseng and stretched out three fingers to He Yushui.

"Three hundred yuan. If I have coupons, cloth coupons, industrial coupons, I can split it in half."

"Hey, old man, isn't your price too high? An honest price! Do you know what an honest price is?"

"I can't afford your price, goodbye!"

He Yushui turned around and left after saying this, thinking she was being taken advantage of! The old man's clothes didn't look like a rich man, but he was dishonest. She had set her price at 150 yuan, so she could accept it even if the old man asked for 200 yuan.

After all, people who can use ginseng in this era certainly don't need to buy it on the black market, and if they do, they certainly won't pay such a high price.

This ginseng is not a necessity, there is no need to buy it.

"Wait a minute, young man. Why are you so impatient?"

"If you think this price is a bit high, just name your price!"

The old man quickly called out to He Yushui. He had been to the black market for three consecutive nights, and He Yushui was the only one who asked about the price.

He also knew that if he didn't sell the ginseng, his two sons at home would make a scene.

There are too many people who can’t even get enough food these days. If they have money, they will of course buy food, and almost no one buys ginseng.
