Chapter 16: Treasury bonds at a 30% discount!



"That's great news!"

Chen Dong was overjoyed; he hadn't expected things to take such a dramatic turn for the better.

Although it's a little different from what I expected, getting it at a 30% discount is definitely a good deal.

"What good news?"

“These treasury bonds were offered to the employees, but they all refused to accept them.”

"They'd rather take less money than have a piece of worthless paper."

"puff!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Dong smiled and said.

“Brother-in-law, this isn’t just a piece of paper. When it matures, you can exchange it for real money from the bank.”

"That makes sense, but real money is still the most practical thing to do."

Lin Zhiyuan was well aware of what Chen Dong was saying.

But people still need to eat, right?

Even the most rational person wouldn't agree to exchange money meant for food for these future gains.

"Dongzi, that's the situation. They insist that if we want to buy it, we have to take it all."

"I understand, brother-in-law. I'll give you a definite answer within two days."

Hearing Chen Dong's confident tone, Lin Zhiyuan didn't say anything more.

300,000, an astronomical number.

Based on the current monthly salary of 100 yuan for employees.

It requires working for 250 years without eating or drinking.

Even with a 30% discount, it's still 210,000.

For Lin Zhiyuan, there is not much difference between 300,000 and 210,000; both are unimaginable fortunes.

Even though Chen Dong made money from his tea egg business.

He couldn't possibly come up with 210,000 yuan all at once.

Lin Zhiyuan didn't take Chen Dong's words seriously, assuming that Chen Dong was just being polite and deliberately said he would give a reply within two days.

He was already planning how to comfort Chen Dong.

"The food is here!"

Just then, the owner came over from the kitchen carrying a large plate of food.

The wild game he had ordered earlier was turned into braised rabbit.

Large chunks of rabbit meat, bright in color, are garnished with cilantro.

The aroma of braised rabbit meat was irresistible as soon as it was served, making one's mouth water.

"It smells so good!"

Seeing the delicious-looking braised rabbit meat, Chen Dong quickly called out to it.

"Brother-in-law, try it and see how it tastes!"

As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of rabbit meat, and put it in his mouth.

The rabbit meat is crispy and refreshing, and the broth inside has been absorbed. The wild rabbit meat is very chewy and becomes more and more fragrant the more you chew, with the aroma instantly enveloping your entire mouth.

"tasty!"

Chen Dong expressed his sincere admiration.

Although resources were scarce in this era, the food was all-natural.

It's a wild rabbit, so it's definitely not domesticated.

He hasn't eaten a purely wild rabbit like this in a long time.

Lin Zhiyuan nodded and agreed, "It really is delicious."

As he spoke, he wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Chen Dong smiled slightly.

No matter how mature he tries to appear, he's still just a 24-year-old young man.

"The dry pot chicken is here..."

Just then, the boss's voice came, and with him appeared a woman of the same age.

Dry pot chicken, smashed cucumber, steamed pork ribs with rice flour, green pepper and preserved egg...

In no time, the table was piled high with dishes.
