111. Chapter 111 Return to the Black Market 3



Wang Zhengguo sat at the head of the table, looking at Feng Qingxue and Feng Qingyun, who she had brought back from her second uncle's house. He pointed at the food on the table and said with a smile, "There have been disasters every year in the past two years, and there has never been a good harvest. The city often runs out of food, and eating sweet potato rice every day is a good life. Even during the Chinese New Year, not everyone can eat such a sumptuous meal. Seeing that you are living a good life, I feel relieved."

Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "If it weren't for my uncle, we wouldn't be where we are today."

"You are capable. I just introduced you to Lu Jiang. The final result depends on you." Wang Zhengguo did not dare to take all the credit for himself. "Lu Jiang's father is very knowledgeable. No, it should be said that he is very far-sighted. When you have time in the future, you can go there often and take care of them. It will not do you any harm."

"Don't worry, uncle. I know."

Seeing her being well-behaved and obedient, Wang Zhengguo was very satisfied. Once satisfied, he couldn't help but give her some further advice, "I have lived in the Lu family since I was a child. Although I don't know all the details of their family, I know about five or six points. During the campaign to confiscate their property, some things that I had seen when I was a child were not confiscated. Do you understand what I mean?"

Feng Qingxue felt a chill in her heart.

There are fools in the world, but there is no shortage of people with a heart.

Lu's father thought he had a long-term vision and hid part of his family property in advance so that it was not confiscated. The meeting gift and engagement gift he gave her were evidence. However, Wang Zhengguo was definitely not the only one who had ulterior motives. The problems that Wang Zhengguo could find would also be discovered by others.

Mr. Lu had more than one study partner, and there were also many servants in the house.

"I did hear Uncle Lu mention it once. When the family was searched, many people took advantage of the situation to loot and put a lot of gold, silver and jewelry into their own pockets. Antiques, calligraphy and paintings were secretly collected by those who took advantage of the situation. There were not many precious ones in public. I guess this is why some of the things that my uncle saw were not confiscated!"

"Is this true?" Wang Zhengguo asked doubtfully.

He himself had never done such a thing, and it never occurred to him that someone would embezzle the confiscated items.

Feng Qingxue smiled lightly, "Since Uncle Lu said so, it must be true. If you don't believe it, you'd better be careful in the future and secretly watch whether those who copied the Lu family at that time will leak out the Lu family's things."

Wang Zhengguo suddenly remembered something and slapped the table with his left hand.

"No wonder, no wonder, no wonder Zhao Dazhuzi's family is so poor, but they have survived the famine of the past two years safely. I thought I was dazzled by seeing him in the black market again and again. His family owes debts to the production team every year, so how can they afford to buy expensive grain? Now that you say this, I remember that when we went to search the Lu family's house, Zhao Dazhuzi was the most active one. He was also one of the people who demolished the wall. He demolished a lot of gold and silver bricks and stuffed a few gold bricks into his waistband. Who would notice it?"

"Did Zhao Dazhuzi ever participate in the confiscation of the Lu family? Uncle, who else participated at that time?" Feng Qingxue asked curiously, secretly feeling lucky that someone sold the Lu family's things.

Wang Zhengguo frowned.

"Many people, only a very small number of people in the Wanglou Brigade did not go out. Even your eldest aunt did not listen to me and rushed to the front. When the country issued this order, the lower-class people, especially the tenants and servants of the Lu family, were all excited. They all felt that they had turned the tables and became the masters. They completely forgot the kindness of the Lu family. They rushed to the Lu family and beat and smashed things. Many precious antiques and calligraphy and paintings were burned. The scene was so tragic that I still remember it vividly."
