Chapter 171: Don’t ask for trouble, just sell the bar.
Xu Damao left, and Old Xu also got up, washed up, and waited for breakfast. While Xu Dongsheng was waiting for the food to be cooked, he returned to the room and took a look at the Saker Falcon in the hemisphere. This little thing has now grown into a big one.
Although only one night had passed, in fact one and a half months had passed in the hemisphere space. In the hemisphere space where there was no worry about food and drink, the Saker Falcon was about to become an adult.
The grown-up Saker Falcon still looks gradient in color, but it is quite different from when I saw it last night.
The head is white with thick dark vertical stripes on the top of the head. The upper body is gray-brown to dark slate brown with white horizontal stripes and spots. The tail feathers are white with brown or slate horizontal stripes. The flight feathers are slate brown with broken white horizontal stripes. The lower body is white with dark horizontal stripes.
In the hemisphere, its wingspan is almost two meters. Looking at the rabbits it has not finished eating, you can tell that it is now a very ferocious bird of prey.
Seeing this, Xu Dongsheng took Si Qing out and suddenly appeared outside. The Saker Falcon was a little confused and began to struggle, but how could it escape from Xu Dongsheng's hand? Xu Dongsheng fed it a piece of secret meat, and it looked at Xu Dongsheng with a hint of fondness.
After feeding a few more pieces of meat, Xu Dongsheng touched Si Qing's head. Although Si Qing still resisted, he endured it. Xu Dongsheng gave him another piece and threw it back. This thing can't be carried around like Erhei. After it grows up, it can only be put in the sky, and then use the mouse brother to send food to it out of the city so that it won't starve.
After feeding the Saker Falcon, Xu Dongsheng looked at the copper coins in his palm and began to tell fortunes. After a while, Xu Dongsheng got a divination.
"The Fenghuo Family hexagram means that you cannot meet the noble, you cannot get an official position, you can make a deal but you cannot travel far. It seems that I cannot travel far today, so I will just walk around the city and visit my little goddaughter. I feel embarrassed that I didn't even go to the full moon banquet. Hey, I didn't expect that there is a skill in today's God's Blessing, which brings continuous good luck."
After getting the name of the hexagram, Xu Dongsheng knew the result of today's trip and transaction. Then he came to the yellow list and found that Tianci Fu on the yellow list had another skill, which was pretty good.
Xu Dongsheng put away the copper plate projection, came out of the room, and began to prepare for breakfast. Not long after breakfast, Liu Haizhong came out from the central courtyard, and then the three of them went to the steel mill together. Originally, Old Xu was supposed to take Liu Haizhong, but Xu Dongsheng saw that the road was slippery, so he chose to take Liu Haizhong to the steel mill.
After arriving at the steel rolling mill, Xu Dongsheng went straight to the purchasing department to receive today's task. This week's task was much easier than last week. It only required 50 kilograms of meat, and there was no grade requirement. Xu Dongsheng estimated that it was related to the pig and food that Zhao Gang and his team had obtained.
But later Zhou Zhenghua told Xu Dongsheng that this was specially assigned to him, and hoped that Xu Dongsheng would spend more time to help him get the rare item. Xu Dongsheng nodded in agreement, and then left the steel mill with the money and the task.
After leaving the steel rolling mill, Xu Dongsheng looked at the workers who came one after another, and he rode his bicycle to Zhengyangmen. He also wanted to clear some space in the hemisphere.
"Hey, Pian'erye, are you the manager here?"
Xu Dongsheng came to Chen Xueru's silk shop, which had two floors. The first floor displayed ready-made clothes, cloth, and some furs. When he arrived at the store, Xu Dongsheng did not see Chen Xueru, but he saw Pianerye, with whom he had fought crickets last night. Seeing Pianerye sitting at the counter in a daze while the employees were sorting the cloth in the store, Xu Dongsheng knew Pianerye's identity.
"Hey, the organization thinks highly of me and gave me a job to make a living. Brother Dongsheng, what are you going to do? Are you going to buy two ready-made clothes or some cloth? I can give you a discount."
Pianerye has now regained his identity and asked Xu Dongsheng what he was doing there with a smile.
"I'm here to look for the private manager here, Chen Xueru. Is she here?"
Xu Dongsheng shook his head and then stated his purpose.
"Are you visiting her for personal or business matters? Fan Jinyou is upstairs right now. Don't let him suspect you. Otherwise, not only will you fail to accomplish your mission, but you will also get yourself into trouble."
Upon hearing this, Pianerye motioned Xu Dongsheng to come over. After Xu Dongsheng came over, Pianerye whispered to Xu Dongsheng.
"Forget it, I'm the one who hates trouble the most."
As expected, when a woman is beautiful, there will be trouble everywhere. He already knew that Fan Jinyou drank last night. He is a mean man who not only takes trivial matters as a token of authority, but also likes to play tricks on others. If Xu Dongsheng meets such a person in a few years, he will be killed. However, for the current business, forget it. If it doesn't work out, he can think of other ways.
"Okay, let's drink together some other day."
Xu Dongsheng was straightforward and a good drinker, and Pianerye was willing to teach his friend Xu Dongsheng, otherwise he would not have reminded Xu Dongsheng. Xu Dongsheng nodded and left the silk shop.
"Hey, it's Brother Dongsheng. It's so early. Come in quickly. It's cold. Drink some hot wine to warm yourself up."
Xu Dongsheng had just come out of the silk shop when Xu Huizhen, who was in the tavern opposite, came out with her child in her arms and saw Xu Dongsheng. She immediately invited Xu Dongsheng to their tavern for a drink. Xu Dongsheng did not refuse, after all, Cai Quanwu was an honest man, Xu Huizhen was a wonderful person, and Xu Dongsheng also had business to discuss with them.
"Then I won't be polite, Manager Xu."
Xu Dongsheng smiled and walked towards the tavern. At this time, there were also a few people in the tavern drinking early. Xu Dongsheng came to the counter, asked Cai Quanwu for half a catty of wine, then leaned on the counter and started drinking.
"Brother Dongsheng?"
Seeing that Xu Dongsheng did not leave the counter to drink, Cai Quanwu understood that Xu Dongsheng was upset and asked him a question immediately.
“Smell this.”
Xu Dongsheng didn't say much. He took out a small porcelain bottle from his cotton-padded jacket and handed it to Cai Quanwu. Although Cai Quanwu was a little confused, he didn't say anything because of Xu Dongsheng's mysterious look. He turned around with the porcelain bottle and was about to open the lid of the bottle. However, as soon as he opened a gap, the aroma of wine wafted out.
Instantly, Cai Quanwu was mesmerized by the taste of the wine, which had a wonderful aroma. Although he only opened it a crack and smelled a little, Cai Quanwu, a wine lover, knew that there was something good in it.
"Brother Dongsheng, what do you say?"
Cai Quanwu did not open the bottle to taste it. He put the lid back on and asked Xu Dongsheng what he thought.
"One hundred kilograms a month, ten yuan per kilogram."
Xu Dongsheng told Cai Quanwu the price and quantity of the wine that he had already decided on. Cai Quanwu thought that it was twice as expensive as Wuliangye, but the aroma was indeed amazing. However, Cai Quanwu could not make up his mind, so he said something to Xu Dongsheng and immediately went to the back of the tavern.
The front of this tavern is a tavern, and the back is a dormitory where people can live, as well as a vegetable cellar and a wine cellar.
"One hundred kilograms a month. Take it. However, you can't sell it yet. After you get it, move it all to our house and put it in the wine cellar. This wine is not ordinary wine. The brewing method of this wine is extraordinary. The wines we import can't compare with this, not even Wuliangye. The people in our tavern generally don't consume it, but keeping it will definitely be useful in the future."
Cai Quanwu came to the backyard. Xu Huizhen, who was breastfeeding her baby, smelled the wine and knew it was good stuff. She immediately asked Cai Quanwu for it and insisted on negotiating the deal. Cai Quanwu explained what she had heard and then returned to the tavern.
"We want it, how do we deliver it?"
Since Xu Dongsheng didn't ask for food coupons, that means this thing doesn't require food coupons, but it also means that it's not so open and aboveboard, so Cai Quanwu asked this question.
"At 1 a.m. on the first weekend of every month, go to the small woods outside Dongzhimen and move it yourself. There will be someone to deposit your money there. Just leave it there. That's it. Let's go."
The deal was done, Xu Dongsheng drank the rest of the half-pound of wine in one gulp, and then walked out the door. Cai Quanwu didn't say much, just nodded silently. Xu Dongsheng left the tavern, and when he came out, he found that the sky was clear.
"Hiss, I got a skating proficiency yesterday, and I can't travel far today, so why don't I take Shen Xiuping to the Shichahai Skating Rink to skate?"
Xu Dongsheng was riding a bicycle, holding the puppy, and it seemed that he had nothing to do. Then he thought of the skill he acquired last night, ice skating proficiency. Now he has mastered both ice skating and skiing. If he were given a snowy mountain, Erhei would be his sled dog. Unfortunately, he has no sled and even skates now.
However, Xu Dongsheng thought that he would be able to get a pair of skates tonight, so he was still very happy. However, Xu Dongsheng already had skates, but Shen Xiuping didn't, so he bought a pair for her. However, ice skating could only be discussed tomorrow.
