Zhao Dahu finally left with the one dollar given by Chu Yue, and the final result was as expected. When he took great effort to drive a donkey cart to deliver a pile of furniture to Liu Jinfeng's hometown in the countryside, and then moved it home with great effort, his shoulders were all red with marks from being pressed.
He asked Liu Jinfeng for his wages, and Liu Jinfeng gave him fifty cents.
Zhao Dahu questioned, "We agreed to buy one piece."
Liu Jinfeng argued, "Before, there was a table for eight immortals. That was the biggest table. Now I'm selling it. You don't have to move such a big table. How much less effort do you have to spend? Can I still give you one yuan? Fifty cents at most. It's up to you whether you want it or not."
The money was thrown at Zhao Dahu, and he clenched his hands into fists.
Liu Jinfeng was afraid of such a strong young man if he really went crazy, so she quickly shouted, "I tell you, this is my home, and all the relatives nearby are my relatives. They will come out as soon as I shout. If you dare to fight me, believe it or not, I will go find the village party secretary and arrest you!"
Zhao Dahu gritted his teeth, and finally bent down to pick up the fifty cents that fell on the ground.
Liu Jinfeng clasped her arms across her chest and mocked, "Take the money and get out of here."
Zhao Dahu held the money in his hand and was even more grateful to Chu Yue for the one dollar she had given him earlier, otherwise it would not be enough to buy food.
Of course, this is all in the past.
Let’s get back to the small warehouse.
After Chu Yue sent Zhao Dahu away, she saw Lu Zhanlin studying the four legs of the table. She walked over and first closed the door between the shop in front, and then returned to Lu Zhanlin.
Lu Zhanlin looked up at her and asked, "Did you buy this table just for the four legs?"
As expected, he was the man she liked. He was smart and was not blinded by a broken table.
Chu Yue didn't dare to say it directly for the time being, but asked Lu Zhanlin with a smile, "You just said that you are not pedantic."
Lu Zhanlin looked at Chu Yue.
Chu Yue said with sparkling eyes, "I'm just taking a gamble. There's something good hidden in this table."
Chu Yue thought of this because Lu Zhanlin had said before that the table legs were hollow. Later, she heard from Liu Jinfeng that the previous owner of the shop used to run a teahouse.
That's a teahouse, and ordinary people can't do this business.
Chu Yue's suspicions grew even stronger, and her mind was already calculating.
After hearing this, Lu Zhanlin frowned slightly, then reached out to pinch the table leg, exerting force with his palm, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged, which was quite sexy.
Chu Yue was standing by and asked with great interest, "How many of them are hollow?"
"Two." Lu Zhanlin said.
"Two means a 50% chance, which is pretty good. I thought there was only one." Chu Yue raised her eyes and said expectantly, "Take it off and see how my luck is."
Lu Zhanlin did what he said without any help from Chu Yue. He found a wooden stick in the warehouse and pried the table open with force according to the mortise and tenon structure.
The table legs and the octagonal table top were separated like this.
Chu Yue picked up the table leg and looked at it. It was hollow, and she saw a layer of red sealing wax on the top layer.
The presence of sealing wax proves that there is something inside the table leg.
Chu Yue took a chopstick and pried the wax seal into pieces, then turned the table leg upside down and shook it hard.
In a flash.
With a clang.
A rectangular object fell to the ground with a heavy sound.
Chu Yue and Lu Zhanlin looked up at the same time, and they looked at each other with the same excitement in their eyes.
When she lowered her head, Chu Yue could no longer hide the smile on her face. She picked up the rectangular object on the ground, her palms felt heavy, and then she opened the outermost layer of kraft paper, revealing - a touch of gold.
It's a small yellow croaker!
A heavy little yellow croaker!
Lu Zhanlin obviously didn't expect this. He looked at the small yellow croaker in Chu Yue's hand, then looked at Chu Yue again, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you still going to take it apart?"
"Tear it down! Of course we have to!"
Under Chu Yue's interested eyes, Lu Zhanlin also took down the other hollow table leg. It was also sealed with wax, and when he opened it, he saw... heavy yellow croaker.
Two.
There are actually two!
Chu Yue held the things in her hand, smiling broadly, and said to Lu Zhanlin, "We agreed that you can't be so pedantic!"
She was afraid to hear the words "hand it over to the country" from Lu Zhanlin's mouth, so she kept reminding him with what Lu Zhanlin had said before.
Lu Zhanlin smiled helplessly, "This is what you earned from legitimate business, so it's yours."
Chu Yue nodded, smiling with eyes curved, "It's mine, yours, and Yuan Bao's. It belongs to our family."
Lu Yuanbao had no idea what was going on. He just saw Chu Yue buy a table and then dismantle it, and she was very happy after doing so.
He wondered, "Am I included?"
"Of course! Yuanbao Yuanbao! What a good name, it means to bring wealth and fortune. Now here comes the golden ingot." Chu Yue held the two small yellow croakers in her hand and pushed luck to Lu Yuanbao, "Today is also Yuanbao's birthday, it really is a continuous stream of good luck."
As Lu Yuanbao listened, he started laughing along with Chu Yue.
That night, before going to bed, Chu Yue couldn't help feeling happy as she thought about the two small yellow croakers. She had even calculated that with such a large sum of money, when the policies were liberalized in a few years, she could ask Pei Hanchuan to help her buy a house in Shanghai, or a courtyard house in Beijing. She didn't know if it would be enough.
Lu Zhanlin returned to the room with a fresh breath, and saw Chu Yue smiling on the bed with her eyes bent, and whispered, "Are you still not asleep?"
Chu Yue turned over, her hair swaying behind her. She moved closer to Lu Zhanlin's bed and looked up and said, "Which do you think is better, Shanghai or Beijing? I don't know where Yuanbao will like when he grows up. Why don't we make more money and buy houses in both places? If Yuanbao wants to go to Shanghai, he can go to Shanghai. If he wants to go to Beijing, he can go to Beijing. It's up to him."
"What about you?"
"Am I not with you?" Chu Yue raised her chin and said as a matter of course.
Lu Zhanlin was standing beside the bed, his black eyes lowered to look at Chu Yue's fair face and her snow-white and tender chest, the longing in his eyes was silently aroused.
Chu Yue looked at the undercurrents in Lu Zhanlin's eyes, her face slightly reddened, her breathing became rapid, her chest heaving, but she did not dodge or evade.
Her smile was not just the happiness from before, the corners of her lips were even more charming.
Although small yellow croaker is good, it is not as good as a real man with bulging chest muscles and hard abdominal muscles. That is priceless.
Everything that happened next will come naturally.
Lu Zhanlin kissed Chu Yue deeply and finished what he couldn't finish in the small warehouse at noon.
Chu Yue sobbed, "...turn off the lights."
Lu Zhanlin pretended not to hear and did not reach out to turn off the light. He also grabbed Chu Yue's outstretched hand and held it tightly.
He wanted to see more clearly, more clearly...
