Chapter 194 The Lou Family’s Great Harvest
Yi Zhonghai and He Daqing saw Yan Bugui rush out of his house as soon as he heard about the huge amount of money.

They all looked at him and burst into laughter.

Xu Fugui even laughed and talked about the Lou family.
"Boss Lou did make a lot of money last time, but compared to the money, the shops he acquired later were the biggest part.
Listen to my wife,

Not counting the shares in the steel mill, the Lou family now owns one or two hundred stores throughout the city of Beiping.
How much money can these shops make for the Lou family every day? "

Yan Bugui had his own shop, and the rent from this shop alone brought their family's life to a higher level.
Naturally, you can understand the concept of Lou's one or two hundred stores.
Not to mention that the Lou family's shop was definitely not rented out, but was definitely run by themselves.
The benefits are even more terrifying.

Not only was Yan Bugui shocked to the point of having green eyes,
Even Liu Haizhong, who had always been obsessed with officials, and Yi Zhonghai, who was a good man, were stunned when they heard that the Lou family had such a large industry.

"Old Xu, you are not mistaken,

Although the Lou family was wealthy in the past, they were not very prominent in Beijing.

If I hadn't become the white glove of the officials and shareholders of the steel mill, I wouldn't have been famous in our city of Beiping.
Are you so rich now all of a sudden?"

After asking Xu Fugui, several people almost simultaneously turned to look at He Daqing and asked,

"Lao He, have you ever heard the old lady talk about this?"

He Daqing had been busy with Widow Bai's childbirth during this period, so he had no time to worry about the affairs of a wealthy family like the Lou family, so naturally he knew nothing about it.

Xu Fugui, on the other hand, seemed a little proud of knowing something that his neighbors didn't know.
Without thinking, he said,
"My wife heard this with her own ears at the Lou family. How could I lie to you?"

Seeing Xu Fugui's smug look,

He Yuzhu knew that the Lou family was at its peak right now, and it was not the same situation as it would be two or three years later. Xu Fugui did not have the courage to attack them at this time.
The way he is now is just showing off.

But even if it was just a show-off, some people were not happy about it. For example, Liu Haizhong changed the subject directly.
But this guy was not a quick-witted person, and he stabbed Yan Bugui in the heart.

"Old Yan, why are you sitting idle at home so early today?

Didn't you go fishing?"

Hearing this, Yan Bugui was so angry that he rolled his eyes and said in a muffled voice,

"I remember the lesson I learned last time. If I catch a cold again, it will be a waste.
If I catch a cold, you have to pay for my medical expenses!"

After saying this, Yan Bugui turned to look at Yi Zhonghai and asked,
"Old Yi, I remember the propaganda said that the 200 million points of the Victory Discounted Bonds would be distributed by region like the previous gold yuan coupons.

好像是华东区承担4500万分、中南区3000万分、华北区为1500万分、西南区700分、西北区300万分。

Songhu Rong's family has 12 yuan, and Mr. Lou also has 5 yuan.

If all the big businessmen bought like them, these 2 million shares of government bonds would probably be sold out in no time.

Lao He, Lao Yi,

Do you want to buy this discounted bond?

If we want to buy it, we should make a decision quickly. If we miss this opportunity, there will be no such store anymore. If we hesitate, we may not be able to get it later."

As soon as Yan Bugui finished speaking, He Daqing said,
"This discounted bond is the same as timing savings, both are calculated in kind, and it doesn't matter whether the RMB is depreciating or not. Now the RMB is depreciating so fast,

What was it like when the People's Liberation Army first entered the city, and what is it like now?

I must use all the money I have to buy government bonds. I would be a fool not to do so.

But the actual points are too expensive. One point is worth more than half a dollar. We can’t buy much with our savings. I guess it will be a waste.”

When Yan Bugui heard He Daqing say that the discount was expensive, he retorted,
"Lao He, that's not what I meant.
Every cent of this timed bond includes the wholesale price of 6 catties of rice, 1 catties of flour, 4 feet of cotton cloth, and 16 catties of coal.

Apart from anything else, these 4 feet of cotton cloth are enough to make a set of clothes.
So what if it’s a bit expensive!
Not to mention that this discounted bond has an annual interest rate of 5%, which is much better than holding the RMB in your hand!

Each family can’t buy much, so let’s all pool our money to buy it!
Anyway, buy as much as you can."

It was all fine at first, as it was all information released by the higher-ups. But when they heard Yan Bugui say that everyone should pool their money together to buy it, Yi Zhonghai and the others were a little tempted.

Even He Daqing nodded in agreement at this time.

"Okay, then each of our customers will contribute money in proportion and buy this discounted bond together.
When we redeem it later, we can divide the money."

Seeing that they had made up their minds, the neighbors stopped talking and began to reveal one by one how much wealth they had left at home.
Then they calculated the ratio and finally signed a written agreement.

After everything was discussed, He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu and said,
"Zhu Zi, please go to the street government to subscribe for this bond for us when you go to work tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to get in line if I'm late!"

Hearing He Daqing's concerns, He Yuzhu took the money and said with a smile,

"Dad, what are you thinking about?

With the little money we have in our courtyard house, we can only buy one worth 50 or 60 cents. How can we not buy one?"

After taking it, he looked at Yan Bugui next to him.
"Of course, Uncle Yan, you've been so quiet, but I didn't expect your family background is so rich, almost catching up with Uncle Jiang and Uncle Chen."

Chen Zhijie and Jiang Sheng were actually a little surprised when they heard what He Yuzhu said.

You have to know that they were considered wealthy families in Beiping before. Although they fled back from the south, they still had some assets.
I still have a few dollars in savings.

But what about Yan Bugui? He is just an ordinary elementary school math teacher. Where does he get so much money?
It is not like the time more than 20 years ago when teachers were paid very well.

So I followed He Yuzhu and asked,
"Yes, Mr. Yan, I used to think you were so stingy, fishing with a fishing rod all day to make money, but I didn't expect you to have such a rich family background.

If the RMB is not depreciating too fast and there is no place to exchange it for dollars,

You are probably richer than both of us."

Hearing the questions from several people, Yan Bugui smiled generously at first, but did not reveal anything more to them.
"Come on, come on, now is not the time to talk about this. If you have the time to care about this, you might as well help us buy back the bonds.

It saves me from feeling sad as I see the money in my hand getting less day by day. "

Seeing Yan Bugui's painful expression, He Yuzhu smiled and nodded and agreed.
