Chapter 252: The Twelfth Task Xiangzi wants to be a master 17
Lu Renbing's black market brought him a lot of wealth, and most of this wealth was exchanged for antiques, calligraphy and painting by Lu Renbing. There are even national treasure-level things such as the Yongle Grand Ceremony and the Siku Quanshu scattered among the people. Although they are all loose volumes, they are not sets.
But it was enough for Lu Renbing to be happy, he was in the grain caves and gun holes in various places, and he was soon full of old things. There is still a long time left in the war, and there is still chaos after the war, and Lu Renbing has made up his mind to hide these good things for decades.
On the eve of the surrender of the neon people, the prices in Beiping City have completely collapsed, and every family in Xiaoyangpen Hutong has run out of food. Fortunately, Xiangye, who pulled the cart, could still get food, and the youngest daughter of the Ruixuan family was saved from starving to death on the eve of victory.
Liu Siye's life is really hard, for the sake of his son, he actually survived until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and his son went to middle school. After Liu You, he later entered school, Qi Ruixuan was too busy to take care of himself, Lu Renbing went to the school to inspect, and felt that there was no problem in learning some four books and five classics.
The Neon Man is losing more and more, and there is less and less time for the children to take to the streets to wave their flags and shout. So they let Liu You go to school. You can't grow into a wild child.
After the Neon people surrendered, the city of Beiping remembered the sound of firecrackers one after another, and the days of being slaves were completely over. Lu Renbing's family also went to the street.
Even Lu Renbing himself often loses his breath, and the days of being a slave to the country are really difficult. Since he chose to hide in the city, the life of Lu Renbing's family can't be too eye-catching. Because he had to hide for a longer time, in the end, Lu Renbing even hid Hu Niu and Xiaofuzi.
So when the Anti-Japanese War ended, Lu Renbing's family was also like everyone else in the courtyard, disgraced, and everyone was thin.
For Lu Renbing, the biggest harvest is the grain cave full of goods. It was he who completely hid himself in Beiping. In ten years, Lu Renbing has completely degenerated from the eyes of all those who were familiar with him into a muddy, rotten coachman.
The boss behind the scenes of the Beiping black market is a man named Bingye, who has nothing to do with the rotten coachman who often squats in the corner. Even the brother who used to be the most familiar with Lu Renbing left with a sigh after visiting Lu Renbing a few times. They are now eating under the hands of Bingye, who is not in sight of Shenlong.
Although Xiangye used to be kind to them, there is not much they can do, send some cakes and fruit snacks, even if they are benevolent and righteous.
Lu Renbing was very satisfied with this situation, and he was more willing to be an underground rat like he was now than living in a high temple.
Hard-working to store food, and then get through one crisis after another. After the Neon people surrendered, the acceptance officials who came to Beiping looked ugly. The liquidation of traitors is also very bloody, and there is a lot of chaos in it.
Old Qian came back, and with the help of his brother-in-law Jin Sanye, he took back the house, and his old wife came back to live with his eldest daughter-in-law and grandson, and the money house was restored. It's just that the two members of the Guan family have long been unlucky, so it can be regarded as unpleasant retribution.
Regardless of the Qi family, the Qian family, and the Guan family. Lu Renbing was at ease in the miscellaneous courtyard and was his chauffeur with peace of mind. The coachman is no longer popular these days. Neon people introduced human-powered tricycles, and soon this tricycle became popular all over the country.
By the time the neon people surrendered, the army was in chaos. Lu Renbing, who "saved money for a few years", finally bought a second-hand tricycle in the opposition of the tiger girl and became a foreign tricycle driver.
Liu Siye's good life didn't last long, he died at the end of the year, and in this era of war and chaos, he actually lived to be 85 years old. When I think of the old man when he was young, he ate, drank, prostituted, gambled on the streets, and lived in a prison, so I have to sigh that the scourge has been left behind for thousands of years.
Lu Renbing's family helped to manage the old man's funeral, and the old man's son, who had worked hard to raise him, lived up to his expectations and threw the old pot for him. The war is won, and the old man can be buried with peace of mind, don't worry, he won't be buried for a few days, and he will be dug out again.
When the neon people were in Beiping, they were really virtuous, and they really dug a lot of graves. The tomb of the prince buried in the suburbs of Beijing, the tomb of the princess, the tomb of the Zhongguan or something, but it was really unlucky, and they were all dug up.
The bitter lord reported to the official, and the reply was that the tomb robber did it, and it must be strictly investigated, and then it was gone. What should be dug up, it still has to be dug up. If you don't want this, why would the neon people come to Beiping?
Lu Renbing estimated that the excavation of the ancestral grave was also one of the reasons why Zaitao and other widows refused to enter the hypocrite.
Liu Siye entered the ground, Lu Renbing's brother-in-law, and his mother, who was only thirty years old, pitifully sought Lu Renbing's protection. Their car dealership soon became untenable, and they were about to lose their livelihood.
Lu Renbing simply helped them cash it out and let them become thorough proletarians, but the old man still kept a lot of money. He was not at ease with the young daughter-in-law behind him, so he entrusted the money to Lu Renbing and Hu Niu early. Let him transfer the money to his son later.
More than ten years is enough for the old man to see Lu Renbing's character clearly, he believes that Lu Renbing will not cheat his money, although Lu Renbing has been pretending to be poor, but the old man still sees some clues. He didn't know why his son-in-law was hiding it, but he knew that his son-in-law's money would never disappear out of thin air.
Sure enough, the neon people entered Beiping and answered his doubts. He, a seemingly honest son-in-law, is really cunning, well, worthy of trust.
I have to say that the old man sees people very accurately, especially his young wife. Half a year after Liu Siye was buried, his wife got married.
No one said anything about this, not even Hu Niu could say anything to make the family widow for her father. Lu Renbing didn't do anything perfectly. Half of the money from the pawn car dealership was given to the woman, and the rest was counted as his brother-in-law's living expenses, and his brother-in-law was taken to live at home.
After the neon people surrendered, Lu Renbing moved out of the compound and lived in a courtyard house that had been prepared a long time ago. They have a large family, and it is much more convenient to live in a yard by themselves.
The war broke out again, Lu Renbing sold all the real estate he hoarded in Beiping early, replaced it with real money and buried it, and it didn't take long for prices to skyrocket, and the fiat currency became like waste paper.
Bingye's black market has begun to flourish again. Alas, Lu Renbing, who has accumulated wealth, has a big head himself. Now he has to worry about whether those grain hiding holes will suddenly be dug out by some lucky person with a shovel.
Definitely got rich overnight. So throughout the time before liberation, Lu Renbing was racking his brains and trying to find a way to find a safe place for his treasures.
