Today's incident really gave them a scare.
If Yun Que'er hadn't made plans in advance and they had followed Yun Fujin's idea of keeping the door tightly shut, which would have attracted so much attention, there would have been only one outcome: those idle people would have directly broken in and caught them red - handed.
The key was that they really didn't know how to explain.
After this incident, Yun Que'er also had a plan in mind.
The system was indeed a great assistant for people, but its function was only auxiliary.
If one relied on it excessively and intended to get rich with it, it was a bit like taking the wrong path.
It would have been okay in her era, but in the present, it might cause trouble for her family.
So, from now on, she couldn't use the system recklessly anymore.
Besides, Yun Que'er had another idea. She looked at Yun Fujin.
"Brother, I actually think that if the conditions allow, we should leave Yuhe Village."
Hearing Yun Que'er say this, Yun Fujin was first stunned, then fell silent for a long time without saying a word. In the end, he only let out a long sigh.
Seeing Yun Fujin's series of reactions, Yun Que'er knew that his thoughts were the same as hers.
"Brother also thinks we should leave Yuhe Village, right?"
Yun Fujin looked up at the dusty ceiling. "If possible, who would want to leave? After all, it's the place where our roots are. It's hard to leave one's hometown. But you've also seen how things are for our family in the village..."
Actually, they had not made no efforts. For example, when Yun Que'er got Zhang Yingying involved, it was like sharing their interests with others.
But from the current situation, some things didn't necessarily have results just because they worked hard.
Human nature was like this, and no one could change it.
Moreover, everyone had suffered. Unless everyone was willing to sacrifice their own interests and get rich together, they could barely maintain a balance.
But there would always be calculations among people.
If you were a bit better than me, or I was a bit better than you, there would surely be a rift.
They still had a lot of things to do in the future. If every time things turned out like this, how could they continue?
It wasn't that they wanted to escape. It was just that leaving Yuhe Village would be better in the current situation.
"I'll discuss it with Dad later," Yun Fujin said. "Anyway, you'll be going to primary school soon, and you'll definitely have to go to the town. It's also inconvenient for your third sister to go to school back and forth. If our whole family can move to the town, it will be beneficial for everyone."
Yun Fujin thought this through very clearly this time and didn't hesitate because of the so - called attachment to their hometown. Yun Que'er felt much more relaxed.
"Don't worry, brother," Yun Que'er comforted him. "Anyway, they shouldn't be staring at our family all the time now. Take advantage of this time and quickly sell the gold. With money, everything will be easy."
Time was of the essence, and they had to act quickly.
Taking advantage of the fact that a farce had just ended and everyone had no interest or dared not provoke the Yun family anymore, they rummaged out the gold - smelting things from the cabinet again.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly. In about five or six days, they melted the gold coin into small gold beans.
Although it was definitely not as valuable as the original, it was still an unexpected windfall.
Then they took these gold beans to the county.
Besides getting rid of them as quickly as possible, they also had to ensure that this matter wouldn't be exposed or cause any trouble, so they deliberately went a bit farther.
It was convenient to do things in the county. They sold the gold beans in several stores and made quite a lot of money.
When Yun Jianzhou saw the money, he was a bit regretful. "Originally, Xiao Que'er said that this gold could be sold for at least 2,000 yuan, but now it's only 1,500 yuan."
"Second brother, be content," Yun Que'er advised. "It's already good that we can get 1,500 yuan now. It's better than being discovered and having it confiscated."
Yun Jianzhou nodded and didn't object this time.
It seemed that sometimes one really couldn't be too money - minded. Losing a bit appropriately could ensure safety.
The next day, they gave that thing to Li Chengfu.
Li Chengfu was a smart man. He knew that Yun Que'er and the others must need this thing for a reason, but he didn't ask specifically.
To maintain a good relationship, sometimes one shouldn't know everything.
Moreover, when people got along with each other, there would always be some unspeakable secrets and things not to be told.
So he just happily accepted the thing without asking a single extra word. He just talked to them about the follow - up of the timber acquisition.
"I remember you told me before that there was a village nearby that was once burned by a fire, but the timber there is good. For the kind of cheap handicrafts we make, it's best to buy this kind of timber. It's convenient for you, so you can handle this part of the matter. I'm getting old and want to enjoy life."
Hearing Li Chengfu's half - joking tone, Yun Que'er was only grateful.
She understood that actually Li Chengfu could have handled this connection himself. This way, he could also save the middle - man's profit, which would have been all benefits and no harm to him.
But he still willingly gave this opportunity to their family. How many businessmen could do this?
He did this for better cooperation and for a more harmonious relationship between them.
So Yun Que'er thanked him gratefully and secretly vowed to handle this matter well.
However, when they went to that village, something unexpected happened.
There was no one living in that village anymore. There was only a caretaker who also served as a forest ranger. Usually, there was no one coming and going.
But somehow, according to the caretaker, several groups of people had come in the past few days, all wanting to buy the half - burned timber around the village.
Actually, he had no opinion on this matter. The people above also tacitly approved it. After all, how could new trees be planted if the old ones weren't removed?
These people's purchases actually solved a big problem.
But after hearing this, Yun Que'er had other thoughts.
This thing could be good or bad.
If it could be properly utilized, it would surely be valuable. But if no one cared about it, it would just be a pile of dead wood.
No one used to interfere, so why did so many people come all of a sudden?
It seemed that some information had leaked out, and someone knew in advance that they had their eyes on this forest and was deliberately making trouble.
Could it be the people in the village?
It was partly possible. After all, when the incident happened a few days ago, Yun Fujin said that the wooden stake was taken from this village.
But they didn't have the capital to do this.
It seemed well - organized and premeditated, and the other side must have plenty of funds.
So this matter was difficult to handle now. There was a shortage of supply compared to the demand, so of course, they would sell it to the highest bidder.
Yun Que'er gasped after asking. They would need a full 2,000 yuan to get it. Wasn't this price gouging?
