Chapter 38 Returning to the old business
"Shopkeeper, didn't the higher-ups say to implement the [8.19 price limit order]? Young Master Jiang even personally took charge of Songhu and executed many merchants who hoarded goods.

The gold yuan is still quite strong now.

Boss Ma and his men can't just let the money go unearned!"

At this time, Luan Xuetang also showed a puzzled expression.

"I think the same as you do. We open a business to make money. There's no reason not to make money!"

He Yuzhu knew what was going on with the two people's doubts. In fact, this was a problem that existed when the gold yuan coupons were first issued.

According to later data,
Before the reform of the gold yuan, the total amount of legal tender issued was 660 trillion yuan.

The ratio of gold yuan to legal tender was 1:300 million, and the total issuance amount was 20 billion, which was 6000 trillion legal tender.

In other words, nothing has been done yet, and yet inflation has increased tenfold.

Otherwise, why would Mr. Jiang kill people in Songhu?

I feel it is necessary to remind Luan Xuetang,

If he could reduce the losses of Fengze Garden, he might even benefit from it.

"Dad, do you still remember the total amount of gold yuan issued as mentioned in the wall poster, as well as the exchange rate with the dollar and the legal currency?

I heard from the neighbors that these gold yuan notes are worth 6000 trillion French francs in total.
That’s a lot of money.”

He Daqing was unable to react for a moment when He Yuzhu suddenly interrupted.
As a businessman, Luan Xuetang is very sensitive about money.
After hearing He Yuzhu's reminder, he thought about it thoughtfully.
“I don’t know whether there are 6000 trillion fiat currencies. I need to discuss this with Mr. Yao. Maybe he can find out from his friends.

Mr. He, you guys go to work. I'll be out for a while.
We'll talk about it in detail when we get back."

He Yuzhu and his son both knew that Mr. Yao mentioned by Luan Xuetang was the major shareholder of Fengze Garden.

My family runs a bank and is one of the richest people in Beijing.

The news is naturally well-informed.
Seeing Luan Xuetang leaving Fengze Garden, He Daqing turned to look at He Yuzhu.
"Zhu Zi, you mean to say that the higher-ups have tampered with the exchange rate of the legal currency.

The gold yuan is not as valuable as imagined.”

He Yuzhu didn't dare to answer his father's question directly, otherwise he couldn't explain how a little kid like him knew all these things.
So I took a detour.
"I don't know whether the gold yuan is worth money.

But I heard from Chief Wang yesterday that Mr. Jiang is now in charge of Songhu and has killed people.

This is something unusual!"

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, He Daqing, who originally thought that Mr. Jiang did this to crack down on the hoarders, now had a different understanding.

But this has nothing to do with him, he is just a worker who gets paid.

"Alright, alright, our gold yuan coupons are almost gone anyway, so let the shopkeeper worry about this matter!

You take Yushui to the lounge, I'll go to the kitchen first."

Seeing that He Daqing was not interested, He Yuzhu shut up and took his sister to the chef's lounge of He Daqing.
I told He Yushui not to go out.

Seeing her pick up the picture book on the table and start reading it with familiarity, He Yuzhu turned around and went to the kitchen.

Entering the kitchen,

I saw He Daqing chatting and laughing with chef Guo Youzhong, head chef Wang Mingli and other chefs.
He Yuzhu said hello, and then prepared to go to Wang Yijun to receive the work assignment.
At this time, Master Guo said,

"Zhu Zi, I heard from your father that you agreed to his remarriage!"

He Yuzhu was not surprised to know that He Daqing was talking to them about this matter, but just answered honestly.

After dealing with several chefs, I found Wang Yijun who was slaughtering animals in the yard.
"Brother Wang, what should I do today?"

As an apprentice who was still in the three-year probation period, although he was learning the family cooking skills, He Yuzhu had to do odd jobs like everyone else in accordance with the rules of Fengze Garden during these three years. However, Wang Yijun did not expect He Yuzhu to come to work today.

The internal chores such as carrying goods, cleaning, clearing ash and garbage, slaughtering, picking vegetables, washing vegetables, washing dishes, washing plates, and scooping spoons have been arranged.
Thinking that the restaurant had not started serving customers yet, he arranged for He Yuzhu and others to deliver the takeaway together.

Seeing that he had to deliver takeout even after traveling through time, He Yuzhu was too tired to complain.

It was 10 o'clock. After lunch, customers started arriving at Fengzeyuan one after another. Everyone got busy.

After a relatively relaxing lunch, time came to the busy afternoon.
Take-out orders are gradually increasing.

After delivering takeaways to several high-end bathhouses such as Qinghuachi on Zhushikou West Street and Dongshengpingyuan on Yangmeizhuxie Street,
I received an order from Taiping Guildhall in Baishun Hutong.

"Zhu Zi, this is Master Lin Wu's order, so you have to be careful and sweet-mouthed."

Hearing what Master Guo said, He Yuzhu smiled and nodded.

"Got it, Master Guo!"

"Okay, go ahead."

The reason why He Yuzhu is not afraid of Lin Wenhua is,

Firstly, he was confident, and secondly, he was now representing Fengzeyuan, the largest restaurant in Beijing, and behind him stood all the shareholders of Fengzeyuan.
Don't judge by appearances, look at the Buddha's appearance. Lin Wenhua will most likely not make things difficult for him.
If you are really blind, the worst that can happen is that you just kill him.

Carrying the lunch box, I trotted to Baishun Hutong, one of the eight famous hutongs.

The Taiping Guild Hall was not a formal guild hall where scholars gathered outside Xuanwu Gate.

It's a first-class brothel.
As soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by several thugs standing guard at the door.

"Boy, come here when your hair is fully grown!"

Looking at these smiling thugs, He Yuzhu did not hesitate and raised the food box with the Fengzeyuan logo in his hand.

"We are delivering food to Master Wu from Fengze Garden. Please move!"

Although these hooligans are the men of another bully leader, the man behind the Eight Great Hutongs, the Northern Tyrant Liu Xiangting and Liu Si,
But when he heard Lin Wenhua's name, he couldn't help but reveal a fearful expression.

After checking He Yuzhu,

While putting him in, he also reminded him,

"Hurry up, don't keep Master Wu waiting for too long, or we'll have to eat the spoils too!"

As a well-known ruthless man who did not even spare his own uncle and daughter-in-law, Lin Wenhua did have the capital to make bullies afraid.

Entering Taiping Hall,

Apart from the scent of powder that wafted towards him, He Yuzhu did not see too many exposed scenes.

I thought it was indeed a first-class brothel.
It was obviously not the same track as He Daqing.

"Which distinguished person are you delivering the meal to?"

The people who spoke were the eunuchs who were responsible for guiding people at the door. They were more perceptive than the thugs outside and knew what He Yuzhu was doing at a glance.

"Fengze Garden, a meal for Master Lin Wu,
I'm afraid I'll offend your other guests, so please lead the way!"

Seeing that he was a waiter at Fengze Garden and was delivering food to Lin Wenhua, the eunuch did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly greeted him,

"Come with me now,
Master Wu is in high spirits right now, please hurry up."

Although he was puzzled as to why this guy dared to bring him in when Lin Wenhua was in such a good mood, He Yuzhu still followed him quickly.
