Siheyuan, don't yell at me

Chapter 269 Warm Winter

The winter sun illuminated the street outside the Soviet Embassy, ​​and He Daqing set up his stall again.

Every time the Red Star Winery launches a new product, he almost always comes here to set up a stall to test the Russians' acceptance of the new product.

In this era, it is strictly prohibited for individuals to do business openly.

However, the old ladies with red armbands and the members of the joint defense team turned a blind eye to it.

Today's He Daqing is no longer the same as it used to be. It is just a stall, but there are more than 30 armed security team members standing guard.

I just want to ask who dares to be so tactless as to come here and cause trouble?

Do you want to be beaten?

The chocolates in front of He Daqing were cut into small pieces, each weighing only about five grams, and one hundred such small pieces of chocolate made up one kilogram.

Each chocolate is carefully wrapped in shiny golden tin foil, shining brightly in the winter sun.

People in the Soviet Embassy responded quickly and ran out to watch the excitement.

They gathered around curiously, their eyes attracted by the glittering golden chocolates.

After all, entertainment activities these days are too monotonous and boring, and you definitely can't miss something exciting to watch.

When these Russians saw that it was the Red Star Winery's booth, they immediately became interested.

Because every time, Red Star Winery always comes up with some new and interesting things and never disappoints them.

He Daqing saw that the Russians had almost arrived, so he started to sell loudly:

"Hey, come and have a look, take a look!

This is chocolate imported from Argentina!

It has an excellent taste, melts in your mouth, is delicate and sweet, it’s simply the taste of first love!

And one pill only costs two rubles. For just two rubles, you can taste this wonderful first love!"

However, those foreigners just looked at each other, and for a moment no one was willing to step forward and try.

After all, such a small thing costs two rubles, which is enough for them to buy two bottles of Erguotou and enjoy it.

At this time, two Russian guards pushed through the crowd and made way for an old Russian who looked quite prestigious, allowing him to come to the front of the stall.

The old Russian's eyes suddenly lit up. He had never expected that such high-end and luxurious goods would appear in this old city.

You know, not everyone can afford chocolate. Only a few powerful people in Moscow can enjoy this delicacy.

After all, it comes from faraway South America and is basically controlled by Western countries.

Even this Russian diplomat in front of him cannot taste it as he pleases.

Originally, chocolate was a symbol of identity and status, but now it has become a street stall commodity.

One piece can be bought for just two rubles, which is a piece of cake for those prominent Moscow dignitaries who care about their status.

The old man didn't even think about it, and said without hesitation:

"Comrade, how many chocolates do you have here?

I bought them all!"

He Daqing immediately replied:

"I brought two thousand chocolates in total. Are you sure you want to buy them all?"

When the Russian heard the number, his eyebrows raised slightly, but then a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Of course, I want them all!

But before I buy, I have to taste a piece first!

After all, I have tasted real chocolate, so I know exactly what real chocolate should taste like, and you can’t try to trick me.”

"No problem, you can pick any one of them and try it."

The Russian carefully tore open the tin foil wrapper of the chocolate and gently bit off half of it.

The wonderful taste that melts in your mouth makes you feel sweet with a slight bitterness.

After the old Russian finished eating, his face was filled with joy, and he couldn't wait to ask.

“Yes, this is authentic South American chocolate.

Where did you get these chocolates?

Any more in stock? I want them all! "

The Russian thought that at this price, he could at least double the profit if he sold it back to Moscow.

With Moscow's spending power, people can eat as much chocolate as they want.

He Daqing also saw that the Russian wanted to resell the chocolate.

Since he has this idea, let him do it. The minimum price is two hundred rubles per pound anyway.

“Comrade, our chocolate is originally from Argentina!

Coming from Hong Kong!

I still have two thousand kilograms in my hand. Are you sure you want them all?"

When the Russians heard the number "two thousand kilograms", they immediately became scared.

Four hundred thousand rubles was not something a small diplomat like him could afford.

"Give it to me, give me ten pounds!"

He Daqing glanced at the Russian with disdain, and the meaning of his eyes was very clear.

If you have no money, why are you pretending to be with me?

The old Russian blushed, paid the money, picked up a cloth bag, and left without looking back.

With the Russian diplomat's sample, other Russians also paid money and wanted to taste the chocolate.

He Daqing was too lazy to sell chocolate himself, just a few dollars or a few rubles.

In this way, chocolate quietly entered the lives of the Russians.

Sure enough, nothing unexpected happened.

Soon, Moscow asked China to provide chocolate.

Red Star Winery also received production tasks.

The profits from producing chocolate are too amazing.

All workers who produce chocolate must sign a strict confidentiality agreement to ensure that the chocolate production process and formula are not leaked.

Not only the workers, but even the families of these workers need to be strictly screened.

They must have legitimate jobs and no bad habits or criminal records.

As chocolate production continued to increase, the financial situation of the Ministry of Public Security improved significantly.

The case handling funds that were previously very tight have become incredibly abundant and have doubled.

At the same time, ordinary people in Beijing have also felt the improvement in their quality of life.

The most intuitive manifestation is that each person's food ration has increased by two kilograms on the original basis.

This move has made people's dining tables more abundant and allowed everyone to feel the tangible benefits.

This was He Daqing's original intention in establishing the Red Star Winery. He hoped that through his own efforts, more people could live a better life.

This winter is indeed full of hope and warmth for the residents of Beijing.

In addition to the increase in food rations, daily necessities on the market have also become more abundant and diverse.

The children were even more ecstatic because the supply and marketing cooperative had launched a variety of fruit candies with new flavors.

That sweet taste is definitely one of the best memories of their childhood.
