Chapter 146 Making a Big Profit



No sooner had the captain left than there was another knock on the gate.

Huo Junshan put down his pen, got up and went to open the door. Yun Ningyan also stopped doing her homework.

She whispered, "Who is it this time?"

Huo Junshan stepped out of the main room and called out in the courtyard, "Who is it?"

"Brother Huo, Brother Huo, it's me! Yang Dasheng."

Huo Junshan paused for a moment, then hurriedly opened the door. Yang Dasheng was covered in snow, with a white blanket covering his head.

"Why are you here? Is it urgent?"

Yang Dasheng patted the snow off his body, looking radiant, and gestured to Huo Junshan to close the door.

Huo Junshan closed the door, and the two strode into the main room.

Huo Junshan had a feeling that business was coming!

Otherwise, would Yang Dasheng have come?

Yang Dasheng entered the house and rubbed his icy hands: "Oh dear, it's really cold! I walked all the way here and my shoes are all wet. Brother Huo, do you have any shoes? Let me change and warm up for a while."

Huo Junshan didn't want him to wear the cotton shoes his wife had made for him. After thinking for a moment, he took out his old cotton shoes that he no longer wore and gave them to Yang Dasheng. He also went inside to find him a pair of clean socks.

"Here, put this on for you!"

Yun Ningyan also came out of the house. Huo Junshan saw that Yang Dasheng had not changed his shoes yet, so he turned around and blocked Yun Ningyan in the house.

The clouds and mist remain unresolved?

She looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Huo Junshan shook his head: "He hasn't changed his shoes yet, don't look!"

Yun Ningyan smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I won't look! But when people come, I should still go out and greet them."

Yang Dasheng changed his shoes and said from outside, "Brother Huo, your feet are bigger than mine, they wobble a bit on my feet."

Huo Junshan then came out of the bedroom with Yun Ningyan.

Yun Ningyan said with a smile, "You're not even as tall as him, of course your feet aren't as big as his."

Huo Junshan asked, "What's the matter? Is there business coming in?"

Yang Dasheng grinned from ear to ear: "Brother Huo, let me tell you, we can make a fortune this time. I heard there's a severe food shortage in the south, and people have already starved to death. How about we do a big job?"

Huo Junshan asked in surprise, "The South? That's too far. How are we going to get there?"

Yang Dasheng's expression also turned serious: "Can we use the train, or just transport the goods directly? We don't know if that person is still appearing on the black market. If we can take that person to the south as well, with that young man's skills, we can probably get a lot of goods."

Clouds and mist!

Huo Junshan!

The two exchanged a glance. This method wasn't impossible, but Huo Junshan was a little worried about taking Yun Ningyan along.

Huo Junshan: "Let's think about it again and see if there's any good way. If we just transport the goods there, we'll be too conspicuous. Unless we can find the person in charge on the train, we'll easily become a target. Right now, there's a shortage of food everywhere!"

Yang Dasheng patted the table under his men: "If that doesn't work, I'll go to the black market and look for that person again. We can always give her some of the profits."

Huo Junshan waved his hand; the person was right beside him, only Yang Dasheng didn't recognize him.

Huo Junshan obviously couldn't tell him, and only said, "Why don't we go to the south first and take a look? If we can find a source of goods, we won't have to go through all this trouble!"

He had already decided to take his wife with him, but he couldn't explain it to Yang Dasheng.

Yang Dasheng waved his hand and said, "Brother Huo, if there were grain in the south, wouldn't the black market supply and marketing cooperatives there have already sold it all? If there's no grain, there's no use in us going there!"

Huo Junshan!

When did this guy become so hard to fool?

How did you suddenly become so smart?

How can I fool them away?

Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "Why don't you go to the black market first? If you can find that person, you can go together. If you can't, then forget it."

After saying that, she winked at Huo Junshan, who instantly understood what she meant.

The plan is to go to the black market and find the two of them.

But it was freezing cold, and he really couldn't bear to see Yanyan go out and freeze.

Yang Dasheng nodded: "I think this method is feasible!"

Huo Junshan's eyes were a little cold. This Yang Dasheng only knows how to make money all day long. In this cold weather, isn't he just making Yanyan freeze with them?

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Yun Ningyan gently pulled down his sleeve. She actually wanted to go to the South to see for herself.

The South was one of the earliest developed cities; I wonder what it's like there now?

Huo Junshan looked down at Yun Ningyan, then at Yang Dasheng, and nodded: "Then let's go to the black market tomorrow!"

Yang Dasheng chuckled foolishly: "Brother Huo, then I won't leave for lunch. I'll eat here. You have to make sure I get something good to eat. I finally got the news and came straight here!"

Huo Junshan gave him a cold glance, while Yang Dasheng chuckled, determined not to leave.

He was freezing cold and had no food in his stomach. It was impossible to send him back like that.

Huo Junshan had no choice but to cook. Yang Dasheng could skip eating, but Yanyan had to eat too.

He took out a piece of pork belly and soaked it in hot water, preparing to make braised pork.

Then he took out a piece of cured pork, intending to stir-fry it with bamboo shoots. These bamboo shoots were taken from his spatial storage.

I grabbed two more tomatoes, intending to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

This is Yanyan's favorite dish.

As for whether Yang Dasheng will think about why he got the tomatoes, he doesn't care; Yang Dasheng will go around spreading rumors anyway.

Seeing that he was cooking, Yang Dasheng offered to light the fire for him, while Yun Ningyan went directly to the bedroom to continue doing her homework.

Huo Junshan originally wanted to steam rice in the space, but since this guy came in with him, he had no choice but to cook rice using the earthen stove.

He rinsed the rice and put it in the pot, then said to Yang Dasheng, "Turn the heat down!"

"Oh, oh," Yang Dasheng nodded quickly.

He added, "Brother Huo, don't forget to get plenty of meat! I'm too lazy to cook at home every day, and I haven't had meat in ages!"

Huo Junshan glanced at him: "You're hoarding so much money, yet you can't even bear to eat meat!"

Yang Dasheng chuckled, "I still need to save money to get married. How can I compare to you, Brother Huo, who just stays here in the brigade and expects a wife to come knocking on his door? I don't have that kind of luck!"

Yang Dasheng's words pleased him, and a smile appeared on his face. He said with a hint of pride, "Of course, I am indeed very lucky. Meeting your sister-in-law is my blessing!"

Yang Dasheng secretly pursed his lips: Brother Huo really does talk about his sister-in-law all the time!

Huo Junshan listened to his inner thoughts, then stopped talking and began to stew the meat.

Huo Junshan cooks very quickly. After the pork belly has soaked, he quickly cuts it into pieces and then rinses it in the wok.

Then he quickly prepared scallions, ginger, and garlic in one go, leaving Yang Dasheng dumbfounded: "Brother Huo, do you cook every day? Look how skilled you are!"

Huo Junshan nodded: "I do most of the cooking. It's too cold now, and I can't bear to see your sister-in-law suffer from the cold."
