"Comrade, you're capable." The tall, thin man changed his contemptuous attitude, and a different thought flashed in his eyes. "The market price of gold is 9.7 yuan per gram, but I can't give you such a high price. We also want to make a profit, so I can only give you 8 yuan."
"Eight dollars and eighty-eight," Zhong Yuxiu said decisively. "You can make a profit at the price I want."
The tall and thin man considered her for a while before saying, "Sure, you can send us more good stuff later."
"We'll talk about it later." He didn't pass up the opportunity. "I don't want all the gold bricks in cash, I also want coupons. Give me some food coupons, industrial coupons, cloth coupons, and coupons for all kinds of supplies."
"How much is the exchange?"
Zhong Yuxiu calculated silently, "Two thousand."
"Can."
After weighing, the goods were delivered in pairs, with one dime in each hand. The gold bars were worth 22,000 yuan, and the gold beans and melon seeds were not heavy, so I only got 176 yuan; there were also 300 kilograms of food coupons, 400 industrial coupons, 50 feet of cloth coupons, and 10 coupons for various kinds of supplies.
"Comrade, my last name is Fang. If you come here again, just come and see me. Unless there are special circumstances, I'll be here."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded and said, "Okay. The money and goods are settled. Goodbye." She wrapped the banknotes in the cloth used to hold the gold bricks. There were so many banknotes that the cloth bag was bulging.
Just as Zhong Yuxiu walked out of the courtyard, a man and a woman came out from the side room. "Boss, who was that just now? He looked unfamiliar."
"She must have just returned to the city." Boss Fang smiled. "This girl is no ordinary girl. She dared to carry a five-jin gold brick all by herself. It really weighs five jin! And she also brought some gold beans and gold melon seeds to the black market. Her courage is even greater than mine back then. She is also very experienced. She will definitely be a great person in the future."
"Boss, you're always good at judging people." The man who spoke had a flattering look on his face, and gave up the idea of finding out the other person's background.
Zhong Yuxiu saw all of this with her mental power and was very satisfied with it. From now on, it seemed that Boss Fang was a reliable person. She found a secluded place, took out three thousand yuan, wrapped it up in cloth, and put the rest in the storage ring.
Back at the hotel, I saw Sister Lian talking to someone, "Sister Lian."
"It's you, sister. Are you back from playing outside?" Sister Lian didn't suspect anything. Didn't she see her go out with a package and come back with the same package?
"Yes, I've only been in the countryside for two years, and I feel like Kyoto has changed a lot." Zhong Yuxiu smiled, her eyebrows curved. "I'm going for a walk tomorrow, and I'll have to trouble Sister Lian the day after tomorrow."
Sister Lian nodded repeatedly, "Okay, it's no big deal. I'll ask someone to help me keep an eye on this place sometime tomorrow."
"Let's do it tomorrow morning. There will be fewer people then, and it will be easier for the street office to get things done." When there are fewer people, things can be done faster.
"Okay, I'll wait for you tomorrow morning."
The two of them agreed, and Zhong Yuxiu returned to her room, leaving the money on the bed. Her financial problems were resolved. The day after tomorrow, after finding a place to live, she would report to Huazhong University. With her plans in place, she relaxed. After that, except for going out to eat, she spent the rest of the day in the hotel.
On the morning of the 11th day, as the sun rose, Zhong Yuxiu invited her elder sister Lian to go to Uncle Wang's house together.
"Oh, you are here so early. Wait a minute; I will change my shoes and then go to the street office with you. The street office should be open now." Uncle Wang was slightly stunned, then he came to his senses and went back to the house to change his shoes.
"Please walk slower." Sister Lian saw that he was walking too fast. After all, the old man's legs and feet would have some inconveniences.
Uncle Wang waved his hand casually, and the man had already gone into the house. A moment later, Uncle Wang came out of the house, wearing a pair of black cloth shoes. "Let's go, let's get things done as soon as possible, so you can rest assured. I can also pack up and go find my son and my wife."
"Are you in such a hurry to leave?" asked Sister Lian.
Uncle Wang chuckled happily, "I should have left a long time ago. I was worried about entrusting the house to someone else to sell it. Now that the right person has bought it, I feel relieved."
"Then you must come back often to see us."
"I don't even know if I can come back, so who knows how long I can live?" He said it in a casual and open-minded manner, with joy in his eyes.
Zhong Yuxiu felt a pang of sadness, yet she also admired the old man. As one ages, they become more open-minded; home is wherever their family is, and even if they can't return, they won't force it. A pair of kindhearted parents always make plans for their children, burdening themselves to make their children comfortable.
Uncle Wang is no exception.
The two chatted along the way, occasionally asking Zhong Yuxiu for her opinion.
The subdistrict office had just opened and someone was cleaning inside. Uncle Wang walked in familiarly and asked, "Xiao Yu, are you busy?"
"It's Uncle Wang. Good morning! Why are you here?" Xiao Yu is a female comrade, who looks to be in her early thirties. But Uncle Wang is older and is used to being called that.
"I've found someone to buy my house. She's a nice young lady. I've decided to give the house to her. I'd like you to issue a certificate and change the land and house deeds." Uncle Wang was speaking in support of Zhong Yuxiu.
Since she will have to live in this area in the future, it is inevitable to deal with the street office, and Zhong Yuxiu feels this way.
Comrade Yu readily agreed, "No problem, I'll do it for you right away. Congratulations! You're just too picky. You won't sell to anyone with bad character or who doesn't cherish the house. Tell me, you've been wanting to sell your house for a long time, and now you've finally found someone you're satisfied with."
Uncle Wang chuckled and didn't respond. He took out the land deeds and house deeds and urged her to hurry up.
Comrade Yu was quick and efficient, and rewrote a new deed for the house and land. "Come, sign it."
"Okay." Uncle Wang signed first, followed by Zhong Yuxiu.
Comrade Yu took a look at it. Zhong Yuxiu's handwriting was in the small regular script style of plum blossoms. It was small and exquisite, with beautiful shapes, soft and beautiful. It was particularly eye-catching on the whole piece of paper and pleasing to the eye.
