Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

As Zhang Haiyang and his group of seven or eight people joined Ning Yuan's team, this group instantly became the most arrogant and unbridled team on the entire ice rink.

About thirty people formed a long dragon and unscrupulously crossed and circled the entire ice rink.

Some of the people on this ice rink are friends of Ningyuan Zhong Yuemin and others. As they were skating, they simply joined this long queue.

In addition, as the number of troublemakers from other districts increased and reached a team of seventy or eighty people, they no longer had the desire to cause trouble, so they just let Ning Yuan and his gang act recklessly.

The whole afternoon passed by unknowingly. The group had a great time. Seeing that it was getting dark, Ning Yuan asked Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang to take their teams out of the ice rink.

After another meal at the Xinqiao Hotel, Zhang Haiyang and his group started to become brothers with Ningyuan Zhong Yuemin and his group. There was no trace of the look that they had been ready to chop each other down in the past few days.

After the show, Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin returned to Yard No. 2.

Ning Yuan did not go home, but went into Zhong Yuemin's house with him. After sitting on the sofa and smoking a cigarette, Zhong Yuemin rarely took the initiative to pour Ning Yuan a glass of water.

"Tell me, what was it that you said you were unsure about at noon?" Zhong Yuemin looked at Ning Yuan sitting on the sofa to sober up, remembered what he said at noon, and asked.

"I was just about to tell you about Mr. Qiao, the man who bought two pieces of jade from us at Taoranting." Ning Yuan paused after he finished speaking, his mind a little confused.

"Mr. Qiao? Well, what's wrong with him? Isn't he quite rich? We can sell him the things we got from Chen Liangzi."

Of course, Zhong Yuemin still remembered this arrogant man who casually took out three thousand yuan, and continued the conversation.

"Don't rush to sell anything yet. Let's get a feel for him. I asked Mr. Zhang about this at noon, and to my surprise, Manager Zhang didn't even know what Mr. Qiao did for a living. He only knew he was an overseas Chinese."

Ning Yuan was more cautious. When he asked Zhang Fengkai at noon, he realized that this man was a little too mysterious.

"Overseas Chinese are just overseas Chinese. We have already dealt with the Mei people. What trouble can an overseas Chinese cause? He has money anyway, so it would be a waste not to make some money!" Zhong Yuemin didn't take this overseas Chinese seriously at all.

"You're thinking too simply. I'm worried this guy is a cultural relic dealer. What if he came to Beijing specifically to sell our cultural relics and national treasures abroad? Wouldn't that make us two traitors?"

Ning Yuan came from the future and knew how much the future would have to pay to get back a national treasure.

So considering his overseas Chinese identity, he felt even more uneasy. It was easy for these old guys to go out, but it was very difficult for them to come back.

"Traitor? Grandma! If he dares to do this, don't blame me for being ruthless. Tomorrow, make an appointment with Manager Zhang and tell him we have something to sell. Have him invite that overseas Chinese over. I'll arrange for the brothers to follow him. I want to see where this grandson comes from!"

Zhong Yuemin couldn't bear to hear the word "traitor" the most. His father had fought against the Japanese for many years, and he was a legitimate heir! So when he heard Ning Yuan's speculation, he was instantly shocked.

"Don't get so excited, this is just speculation. Your idea is good. Let's go meet with Manager Zhang tomorrow."

Ning Yuan had the same idea, so he directly agreed with Zhong Yuemin's plan.

The next morning, Ning Yuan went to see Zhang Fengkai directly with a small jade Buddha.

When Zhang Fengkai saw that it was another high-quality product, he naturally contacted Mr. Qiao immediately.

After a phone call in front of Ning Yuan, they agreed to trade at the old place in the evening.

Ning Yuan was about to leave after seeing that everything was arranged, but was stopped by Zhang Fengkai.

"Brother Ning, may I ask you something? Where did you get these things?"

Zhang Fengkai was also a little hesitant. He had lived for decades, having experienced the Republic of China, the Anti-Japanese War, and the new China. He had quite a lot of experience. He knew that it was not appropriate to ask about other people's wealth, but money could move people's hearts.

He works as a restaurant manager here, and his monthly salary is only more than 30 yuan. But people sell two small items for 3,000 yuan. How can he not be tempted by such a huge profit?

Three thousand yuan is enough to buy two small courtyard houses!

The people Zhang Fengkai comes into contact with are either rich or noble. As long as he can get good things, he is absolutely sure to find a good buyer and sell them at a good price. However, doesn't this mean that he can't get any good things?

He was really not willing to earn just 10%!

When Ning Yuan heard Zhang Fengkai's question, a playful smile hung on the corner of his mouth. He looked Zhang Fengkai up and down, and then spoke.

"Lao Zhang, is 10% too little? The money I gave you for this last order is equivalent to your annual salary, right?"

"Hey, look, I misunderstood you. How could I complain about it being too little? I'm just afraid that you guys might cause trouble. That's why I'm worried. It's okay, it's okay. If it's inconvenient, just pretend I didn't ask!"

Zhang Fengkai was frightened by Ning Yuan's gaze. After calming down, he realized that he was too stupid. Who would reveal their wealth to others? He had just seen the jade Buddha and suddenly thought of the thousands of dollars in the transaction, which made him lose his mind.

"Causing trouble? Just be at ease and do your best. Just look at this time recently. There are probably not many people in the city who dare to show their teeth to us old soldiers!"

Ning Yuan stared at Zhang Fengkai, sneered, and spoke in an extremely arrogant tone.

Zhang Fengkai nodded with a stiff smile, then watched Ning Yuan put on his officer's woolen coat and push the door open.

Yes, with Ning Yuan's status, there are probably few people in the city who can challenge him.

That day he saw with his own eyes Ning Yuan bringing 130 or 140 young men from the compound to Lao Mo for dinner, and this group of young people respected and recognized Ning Yuan very much.

Wasn't he reducing the bill again and again because he was worried that Ning Yuan would cause trouble? He was really out of his mind today and actually asked such a brainless question.

When Zhang Fengkai thought of Ning Yuan's look just now, he wanted to slap himself.

After Ning Yuan left the house, he put the jade Buddha back into the space of the jade pendant and rode his bicycle all the way to Xiaoshi, which was located at the foot of the Caishikou city wall.

It is around ten o'clock in the morning, but the weather is not very good today. The sun is not out and it is a bit gloomy and dark.

Anyway, all units have been affected recently, and many functional departments are short of staff, so Xiao City has become more and more lively recently.

Ning Yuan stopped his bicycle, learned from his last lesson, put all his money into the jade pendant space, and then went into the market.

As soon as he entered the small archway, he saw a stall selling mutton next to him. Ning Yuan hurried over and bought a few pounds of mutton.

In the middle of winter, having a pot of stewed mutton with winter melon and some steamed buns made of three-grain flour is so comfortable!

Thinking of this, Ning Yuan walked around again and found a place selling winter melons and bought two winter melons.
