In fact, in Xu Jiaguo's heart, he still prefers gold.
But it was a special time at that time and many people didn't dare to save that much.
He remembered that when his elder brother and sister-in-law went abroad, they brought gold wrapped in soap.
Lu Zhiye felt that trading with cash was too risky and could easily backfire.
After all, now is not like the later times, where you can stuff hundred-dollar bills or tens of thousands of dollars stacked together into your clothes and no one will notice.
The largest denomination now is only ten yuan, and with so many bundles together, plus clothes, they can't wrap much.
Seeing Xu Jiaguo hesitate to speak, Lu Zhiye took the initiative to bring up the topic: "Is it convenient for us to go to Comrade Xu's home?"
Xu Jiaguo's mind worked quickly and he immediately understood that this man probably had some private matters to discuss.
So he nodded repeatedly and said, "It's convenient, it's convenient, I live not far from here."
The three of them walked through two alleys before they arrived at where Xu Jiaguo lived.
This is a courtyard with two entrances. Lu Zhiye and his friends originally thought that this was Xu Jiaguo's other home.
But I never expected that when I opened the door, I found two or three households living in the yard!
Xu Jiaguo smiled awkwardly and explained: "This is the house that the street office found for me. I am also living here temporarily."
His face was full of sarcasm when he said this. He clearly owned a house, but not only could he not live in it, it was also occupied by evil people and he couldn't even collect the most basic rent.
I have to live in another small house in misery.
No one would be willing to deal with this situation. No wonder Xu Jiaguo wanted to sell the house.
The three people entered the house, and the people in the yard did not look at them curiously like the others. Instead, they closed the doors and windows and returned to their own houses.
Obviously, he has experienced many storms...
Lu Zhiye looked at the room in front of him. Although it was not big, it was clean and tidy.
A small bed, a table, and the rest is a large wardrobe and a large bookcase.
It can be seen that Xu Jiaguo loves reading very much.
Xu Jiaguo picked up the thermos and poured two cups of tea for the two people. He said calmly, "I wonder what Comrade Lu wants to talk to me about?"
Lu Zhiye took the tea he handed over with both hands and said in a deep voice: "My wife told me that Comrade Xu is planning to go abroad in a while?"
Xu Jiaguo did not have any hidden thoughts and nodded calmly: "I do have this plan."
"Has Comrade Xu ever thought about how to take the money away?
Or do we need to find some special people to convert it into gold?"
When Lu Zhiye said this, he stared at Xu Jiaguo without blinking.
Noticing that Xu Jiaguo's expression changed slightly, Lu Zhiye felt relieved, it seemed that his guess was correct.
Xu Jiaguo quickly walked to the door and lowered the curtain.
He said to Lu Zhiye with a serious expression: "I think you are also a smart person, otherwise you wouldn't have guessed this.
This is my current plan. Do you think the price I offer is acceptable?
If you can accept it, I will take you to the Housing Authority in the evening."
Xu Jiaguo felt that he had lived for so many years, but still could not figure out the man in front of him.
I was afraid that something unexpected would happen. The more I said, the more mistakes I would make. If that caused any trouble, it would not be worth it.
So he wanted to hurry up and resolve this matter, and not have any more communication with this man.
Lu Zhiye blew the tea leaves in the teacup, took a sip, and looked up at Xu Jiaguo, who was looking at him as if he was facing a great enemy: "Comrade Xu, why bother? How much gold do you want? Just name a price and I'll give it to you directly."
Xu Jiaguo's eyes were as wide as a calf's. After so many years, he was no longer an anxious boy, but now, he still couldn't control his expression.
"You have???"
Xu Jiaguo's voice trembled a little. As far as he knew, many people were afraid of getting into trouble, so they hid this thing very carefully.
Some people don’t even dare to keep them at home and directly sell them on the black market.
The man in front of me actually said that he had... Then who is he?
For a moment, Xu Jiaguo couldn't make up his mind. He was a little uneasy, fearing that the deal would backfire.
Lu Zhiye put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Comrade Xu, don't worry about getting into trouble. We want to take over this house because we want to have a place to settle down. Everyone can take what they need."
Xu Jiaguo's voice trembled a little: "You, let me think about it carefully."
Seeing that the deal could not be reached today, Lu Zhiye said nothing more. He nodded slightly to Xu Jiaguo, took Wen Sihe and turned to leave.
Xu Jiaguo looked at the backs of the two people leaving. He was obviously more than ten years older than them, but the way he spoke and acted was not as mature as that young man.
Xu Jiaguo didn't know how long he had stayed in the room when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. He calmed himself down and walked over quickly.
When I opened the door, I found that it was the owner of this yard, Su Yang.
Su Yang walked in anxiously, closed the door, looked at Xu Jiaguo and asked, "Old Xu, where did you find these two people?"
Xu Jiaguo was a little confused: "What's the matter? We met near my house."
Su Yang didn't care about anything else at this time, and said straight to the point: "I heard some time ago that you wanted to change the house, should this house be given to them?"
A trace of bitterness flashed across Xu Jiaguo's face: "They have this intention, Lao Su, I won't hide it from you.
Now I can’t get my house back and I’m still living in your yard. It’s really embarrassing.
What’s more, I’m afraid of what’s going on down there…”
The policies have been fluctuating in the past two years, and no one knows what will happen next?
He never wanted to experience the kind of thing that happened when he was demoted to the countryside, shoveling cow dung, or chopping firewood in the snow again.
Su Yang also fell silent. Yes, it was not just Xu Jiaguo, even he felt a little scared when he thought about the scene at that time.
"So how did your talk go?"
Su Yang finally asked his own question!
Xu Jiaguo shook his head: "Just now, that man was too smart.
He can guess most of what I'm thinking. Doing business with such a person is like trying to get the skin of a tiger.
I was afraid I couldn't handle it, so I thought about exploring for another two days."
Su Yang's eyes flashed with joy, and he said without hiding anything: "Since you don't want to make a deal with others, then can you help me ask him if he wants my yard?"
His words made Xu Jiaguo's legs go weak. He looked at his old friend in disbelief: "What do you mean? You want to sell the house too?"
Su Yang shrugged: "I have this plan, so I want to change this house."
"So where are you going?"
"My girlfriend went to Country M some time ago, and I plan to go find her."
After listening to Su Yang's words, Xu Jiaguo was a little speechless.
