Chapter 490

The future price of these copper coins and silver dollars would be at least over ten thousand yuan, and the highest was naturally that Xianfeng Zhongbao, which, depending on the version, would be at least over one million. Just these copper coins and silver dollars would be worth at least over two million in the future, which was another huge wealth.

After Su Xinghui finished picking, he asked Hou Dali to settle the bill. Hou Dali took out a calculator and calculated. The price of these copper coins and silver dollars was just over two thousand yuan, so he charged Su Xinghui two thousand yuan and wrote Su Xinghui another receipt.

Su Xinghui said: "Uncle Hou, tell me if you get any good goods in the future, keep them for me, and I will come to buy them then."

Hou Dali was also very satisfied with doing such a big business today. Of course, he knew that what Su Xinghui picked today were all good things with great room for appreciation. However, he was originally in this business and could not keep the goods for so long. If there was a buyer, he would naturally sell the goods.

In fact, the goods he entered were all entered when the market was at its lowest. Now that he sold them, he also had a profit of several thousand yuan. With such a large profit, he was naturally satisfied.

Su Xinghui naturally had no embarrassed thoughts in his heart. If he didn't buy these things from Hou Dali, Hou Dali would eventually sell these things to others. If he kept these things and didn't sell them, he wouldn't be a businessman, but a collector.

Su Xinghui carefully put the copper coins and silver dollars in protection bags and put them in his bag. Hou Dali put the things back in the camphor wood cabinet, locked them, and said: "Let's go, let's go eat, the meal should be ready."

Su Xinghui followed Hou Dali out of the room. Sure enough, the Eight Immortals table in the hall was already full of wine and dishes. Hou Dali's wife said: "Dali, you can eat."

Hou Dali said: "Little Su, sit down quickly."

After Su Xinghui and Hou Dali sat down, two young boys and girls each filled a bowl of rice and sat down at the dining table.

Hou Dali said: "Little Su, do you want to drink some wine?"

Su Xinghui thought for a while, then nodded: "Then I will accompany you to drink a little."

Su Xinghui picked up a bottle of wine on the table and poured it for Hou Dali and himself. He asked the young boy: "Do you want to drink some wine?"

The young boy shook his head: "I don't drink."

Hou Dali laughed: "This is my youngest son, still studying, doesn't drink."

It turned out that these two young boys and girls were Hou Dali's youngest son and youngest daughter. The son was named Hou Wenyong, and the daughter was named Hou Wenhui. Both were in university now. His eldest son Hou Wenzhi and eldest daughter Hou Wenli had already graduated from university and started working and forming families in other places.

Hou Dali said: "When they both start working and form families, I will have completed my task, and I don't have to think about how to make money all day."

Hou Dali's words made Su Xinghui respect him. He relied on the stamp business to raise four children to adulthood, and all of them were trained as university students. This is really too difficult.

Su Xinghui raised his glass to Hou Dali and said: "Come, Uncle Hou, I toast you, you are really amazing!"

Hou Dali laughed and drank this glass with Su Xinghui.

Hou Dali asked: "Little Su, what work do you do in Meng Hu Ling Township?"

Su Xinghui said: "I work in the township government."

Hou Dali said: "Then what specific work do you do?"

Su Xinghui didn't want to say that he was already a deputy township head, but Hou Dali asked to this point, so he could only answer: "I am a deputy township head in the Meng Hu Ling Township government."

Hou Dali was taken aback: "Little Su, I remember you graduated from university not long ago, right? How did you become a deputy township head?"

Su Xinghui smiled and said: "Uncle Hou, I graduated from university last year. It can be considered luck to be a deputy township head."

Hou Wenyong remembered something: "Brother Little Su, I saw a report in the newspaper last time, saying that there is a college student deputy township head in our Meng Hu Ling Township in Shangjun County. It wouldn't be you, would it?"

Su Xinghui said: "What you said should be me."

Hou Wenyong said: "Then you are quite amazing. You have been reported in the newspaper several times, right? Those classmates of mine all admire you quite a bit."

Although Hou Wenhui didn't speak, she also secretly glanced at Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui said: "Just luck."

Hou Wenyong said: "I have read those reports, that is not luck, you are really quite amazing."

Hou Dali said: "Little Su, so you are so amazing, no wonder you said that your Meng Hu Ling is developing quite well now, and several factories have been set up. Wenyong, Wenhui, you should learn from Little Su in the future."

Hou Wenyong and Hou Wenhui both nodded.

Hou Dali's attitude towards Su Xinghui was even better. He frequently raised his glass to toast Su Xinghui, and Su Xinghui naturally had exchanges with him.

Hou Wenyong and Hou Wenhui were quite introverted. They finished their meal quickly, said to Su Xinghui to eat slowly, and went back to their rooms. Hou Dali's wife also finished her meal quickly, said to Hou Dali to drink less, and went back to the kitchen. Only Hou Dali and Su Xinghui were left at the wine table.

Hou Dali drank another glass with Su Xinghui, then picked up the wine bottle to pour wine. Su Xinghui hurriedly took the wine bottle and said to Hou Dali: "Uncle Hou, drink less."

Hou Dali laughed: "It's okay, I know my drinking capacity. It will be no problem to drink a few more glasses."

Su Xinghui poured wine into his glass and his own glass, but he poured less for Hou Dali. He didn't want Hou Dali to drink too much. After all, he was already over fifty years old.

Hou Dali already had some wine at this time, so naturally he couldn't see Su Xinghui's small movements. He was very happy today and kept laughing.

Su Xinghui asked: "Uncle Hou, is there really only your family surnamed Hou in Zhuangyuan Lane now?"

Hou Dali nodded: "Yes, only our family is left. There were a few families before, but they all left. Speaking of which, our family was even implicated because of this."

Su Xinghui heard this, and it seemed that there was some story in it, so he pursued it. Hou Dali, with the help of the wine, told the history of his family.

It turned out that before the liberation, there were still a few descendants of the Hou family in Zhuangyuan Lane, which were Hou Dali's father and his father's brothers and cousins. However, after the War of Liberation, except for Hou Dali's father, the other families all fled to Taiwan, and later a few went to the United States.

The Hou family has been a scholarly family and an official family since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and of course, there was quite a lot of family wealth in the family. At that time, there were also a few people in the family working for the Kuomintang. It was very normal for them to follow the Kuomintang to Taiwan. ===== CHAPTER 492 =====
