Today is December 5th. The closer we get to the winter solstice, the shorter the days will be.

It was only around three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky was getting dark in the mountains.

The Jiefang car parked outside the gate of Yong'an Forest Farm. Lin Xiangshun honked the horn repeatedly for seven or eight minutes before attracting the patrolling security guard.

This security guard was none other than Zhou Dakui, the head of the old Zhou family whom Li Ruhai had protected the media the day before yesterday.

"Shunzi." Zhou Dakui greeted Lin Xiangshun first, and then saw Li Dayong getting out of the trunk and Zhao Youcai getting out of the passenger car.

They are all from the same village. They usually look up but don't see each other, but look down when they see each other. They are not polite to each other. Zhao Youcai asked for some things in the canteen, and Zhou Dakui opened the door for them without saying anything.

"I'll hang the lock here." Zhou Dakui took the stone cigarette given by Zhao Youcai and said to several people: "Before you leave, don't forget to lock the door."

"Don't worry." Zhao Youcai waved his hand and said, "You should be busy, go ahead and do your thing."

"Hey, Brother Zhou." Suddenly, Li Dayong stopped Zhou Dakui who was about to leave. He saw him trotting to Zhou Dakui's side and asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhou, the child at home is ignorant, my mother and I will take care of him.

It’s over. It’s over. Brother, I’ll make amends to you.”

"Okay, brother." Zhou Dakui raised his hand and patted Li Dayong on the shoulder, saying: "Ruhai also had good intentions. I didn't stay home that day. After that, I went home and listened to what your sister-in-law said. I think your Ruhai was right.

Quite right."

Li Dayong: "..."

There is no involvement of children in such a major marriage matter. Fortunately, the Zhou family was persuaded by Li Ruhai, and everyone was happy with the marriage. Otherwise, Li Dayong would have to suffer the blame from Zhou Dakui.

However, the Yu and Zhou families had no objection, but Liu Tiezui quit. It was precisely because of this that Liu Tiezui was injured. Next week is the day for the Li family and the Liu family to celebrate, and Liu Tiezui will not be able to appear at that time.

Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei still have to find a way to find a matchmaker.

When he thought of Li Ruhai's actions that harmed himself and benefited others, the fire in Li Dayong's heart boiled out.

Thinking that he would give Li Ruhai two more slaps when he got home, Li Dayong climbed into the trunk of the car and rode outside a canteen.

Yongan Forestry Farm has two departments, which are always staffed. One is the security department, and the other is the canteen.

The person on duty in the cafeteria today was Niu Junsheng, Zhao Youcai's second apprentice. When he saw Zhao Youcai coming in with a group of people, Niu Junsheng was stunned for a moment. Seeing Zhao Youcai taking the people to the cafeteria compartment, Niu Junsheng hurriedly went to pick up the kettle.

Zhao Youcai asked everyone to wait for him in the cubicle, while he went to the kitchen to get a cloth bag and rolled it back.

Seeing Zhao Youcai coming back, Niu Junsheng left with a kettle knowingly. After Zhao Youcai sat down, he invited the Zheng family and his son to drink water.

"Master Zhao." The water in the tea vat was steaming. Zheng Xuekun was holding the tea vat to warm his hands and asked Zhao Youcai, "Are you from the canteen?"

Previously, Zhao Youcai only told the Zheng family that he was a forest farm employee and did not say that he worked in the canteen.

"Ah, no." Zhao Youcai pointed to the back of his head and said, "The one who poured you water just now is a relative of mine."

"Ah..." Zheng Xuekun didn't think much about it, but Li Dayong and Lin Xiangshun were used to it.

"Master Zheng, how are you two doing tonight?" Zhao Youcai asked.

"Master Zhao, when we stopped the bus, we just wanted to ask you for information." Zheng Xuekun said: "Well...do you still have a Yongfu Village here?"

"Yes." Zhao Youcai nodded and said, "Do you know anyone in that village?"

"Yes." Zheng Xuekun nodded again and replied: "There is a man named Xu Baoshan in that village. I wonder if you know Master Zhao?"

Zhao Youcai: "..."

Li Dayong and Lin Xiangshun looked at each other, feeling anxious for Zhao Youcai.

Is it weird if you don’t know him?

Not to mention that they are all in the same unit, the key point is that Xu Baoshan is none other than Zhao Jun's immediate boss and the leader of the acceptance team!

"I know him." Zhao Youcai frowned slightly, looked at Zheng Xuekun and asked, "How come you still know him?"

"He has an uncle and a younger brother who works at the post office in your town." Zheng Xuekun explained to Zhao Youcai and the others, "In the past two years, I have collected mountain fungus, ground dragon and other things, and distributed them from the post office to Guanli.

It's through him. Anyway, usually, I give him a little bit of everything I mail, and by going back and forth, I've become familiar with him."

Before Zheng Xuekun could say anything, Zhao Youcai grabbed the conversation and asked, "Did he introduce you to Xu Baoshan's house?"

"Ah!" Zheng Xuekun said: "He said that was his uncle, and it would be easy to mention him to Xu Baoshan's house."

Zhao Youcai twitched his lips when he heard this, while Li Dayong and Lin Xiangshun were also speechless.

The postman Zheng Xuekun talked about was Xu Changlin's son. This boy was quite thoughtful. He took advantage of others outside and didn't want to cause trouble to his father and mother. After that, he arranged for him to be sent to Xu Baoshan's house.

However, Zhao Youcai and the others would not expose this kind of thing. Feeling that everyone was almost warm, Zhao Youcai took the cloth bag roll, unfolded it and took out the leopard skin.

"Ouch!" The first time he saw the leopard skin, Zheng Xuekun stood up from his seat. He was afraid that there would be oil on the table in the cafeteria, so he and Zheng Donghai, the father and son, unfolded the leopard skin with four hands.

At this time, the lights in the cubicle were dim, and Zhao Youcai used a flashlight to shine light for the Zheng family and his son.

After carefully inspecting and stroking it, Zheng Xuekun gently rolled up the leopard skin and handed it back to Zhao Youcai.

"Master Zhao." Zheng Xuekun said to Zhao Youcai: "The last time I came here, I received a leopard skin from the widow's house."

"Widow?" After hearing Zheng Xuekun's words, Lin Xiangshun suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhao Youcai.

Zheng Xuekun once mistakenly called Wang Meilan a widow in front of Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong, but Lin Xiangshun didn't know that. He was also curious, besides his second uncle's house, who else sold leopard skins?

Li Dayong secretly pulled Lin Xiangshun, and at this time Zhao Youcai smiled "hehe" and said: "His thing is not as good as mine."

As he spoke, Zhao Youcai held the leather scroll with one hand, patted it with the other hand, and said: "This winter leather has a good leather board and good hair."

"Master Zhao." Zheng Xuekun raised his hand to stop Zhao Youcai and said, "I am not taking this to make clothes. The leather at this time is good, but it is white and not as good as the autumn one."

This is not only the case for Amur leopards, but also for lynxes. When the snow falls in winter, they will molt their fur, and after that, their fur will turn white.

Zheng Xuekun collects leopard skins not for the fur, but for "waiting to get rich." Only if it is yellow, then it is called a golden leopard.

Zhao Youcai was stunned when he heard what Zheng Xuekun said. He didn't know how to do business, but he knew why Zheng Xuekun bought leopard skins, and he also knew Zheng Xuekun's concerns.

But the key point is that Zhao Youcai thinks what Zheng Xuekun said makes sense.

"What are you afraid of when it's white?" Li Dayong suddenly spoke and said to Zheng Xuekun: "You know what yellow and white things are not allowed to do?"

"Huh?" Zheng Xuekun was stunned by Li Dayong's question.

You must have read books, Li Dayong said: "According to our ancestors, yellow is gold, white is silver, and a pile of yellow and white is wealth."

"Brother." Zheng Xuekun smiled when he heard this and retorted: "Then silver is not as valuable as gold?"

As soon as Zheng Xuekun said this, Zhao Youcai and Lin Xiangshun looked at Li Dayong.

Li Dayong was not in a hurry, he smiled lightly and said, "What do you think about this thing?"

With that said, Li Dayong took the leopard skin roll from Zhao Youcai's hand, looked at Zheng Xuekun and said: "Master Zheng, if you believe me, you can keep this skin. It's over, who did you sell that skin to last time?"

, you still sold this to him."

"That doesn't seem possible." Zheng Xuekun shook his head with a smile and said, "One piece of this thing is enough..."

"Master Zheng." Li Dayong interrupted Zheng Xuekun and said: "One yellow, one white, one gold and one silver, this is called a house full of gold and silver."

"A house full of gold and silver?" Zheng Xuekun, who had not been interested in it just now, his eyes widened instantly when he heard these four words.

"Yes!" Li Dayong said with a smile: "It will be 1988 soon, and 8 means hair. Now that we are rich in gold and silver, the big boss can't earn five or six meals a year?"

After Li Dayong said these words, Zheng Xuekun's eyes changed again when he looked at him.

In fact, when Zheng Xuekun left Yong'an last time and returned to his hometown to sell leopard skins but encountered difficulties, Zheng Xuekun realized that he had been deceived.

But no matter what, the leopard skin was finally tricked out by Zheng Xuekun, and it brought him a lot of profits.

Therefore, even if he was deceived, Zheng Xuekun was still willing.

Today, Zheng Xuekun had a clear mind and knew that he was going to be deceived again.

But he also clearly understood that if he followed Li Dayong's rhetoric and took the leopard skin back, he would definitely make a lot of money by reselling it.

Thinking of this, Zheng Xuekun couldn't help but sigh that after traveling all over the country for so many years, he unexpectedly met an expert in a small mountain village in the northeast.

And he's not just a master. Last time, the little dwarf and the kid were powerful enough. This time, the old man looked like a reckless man, but when he spoke, he understood people's psychology very well.

.

Zheng Xuekun smiled at Li Dayong, then turned to Zhao Youcai and asked: "Master Zhao, how much do you want to sell this leather for?"

"How much is it?" Zhao Youcai looked at Li Dayong. Boss Zhao didn't know how to do business, but looking at his brother's performance just now, Zhao Youcai chose to believe Li Dayong.

"Thirty thousand!" Li Dayong reported the number, which shocked Zhao Youcai, Lin Xiangshun and the Zheng family.

But Li Dayong didn't ask for it blindly. He heard Li Baoyu say that when Zheng Xuekun went to Zhao's house to buy leopard skin, Wang Meilan's first quoted price was 20,000.

Zheng Xuekun, who came back to his senses, smiled and said: "Master, if I get 30,000 yuan for this piece of leather, I have to smash it into my hands."

Li Dayong smiled when he heard this, shook his head and said, "Do as I say and take back this leather. Whoever you sold it to last time will sell it to him this time."

"That won't work either." Zheng Xuekun said with a bitter smile: "Then how will I deal with the big boss in the future?"

"What are you afraid of?" Li Dayong shook the leather in his hand and said, "With all this gold and silver protecting him, he has made a lot of money. He can only thank you."

"How about making money?" Zheng Xuekun asked.

Li Dayong smiled and said: "What big boss doesn't make money these days?"

Zheng Xuekun was stunned by Li Dayong's question. These days, the real industry is very stable. As long as he doesn't seek death or be framed, he will almost always get stronger and stronger.

Seeing Zheng Xuekun not speaking, Zhao Youcai's heart almost jumped into his throat.
