Wang He just asked him to exchange the gold for cash of equivalent value.
This makes no difference to Cao Weidong.
He was just curious as to why Wang He would make such a request.
"You can also exchange it for cash, but when the time comes you want to convert the cash into U.S. dollars, it will be a lot of trouble."
No matter what era it is in, China has strict requirements and strong control over the channels and quantities of foreign currency exchange.
Especially personal exchange.
This is quite a tedious matter.
A letter of introduction from the unit and qualification review are required.
Wang He walked to the window and looked out the window.
"Mr. Cao, look at the scenery outside."
Following Wang He's gaze, Cao Weidong saw the busy streets and the ornamental trees planted on both sides of the streets.
It was already the golden autumn of October, and the leaves were unconsciously dyed with a layer of gold. They swayed in the wind like a golden wave, making the viewer feel relaxed and happy.
In the distance is a majestic and continuous mountain range, and stone buildings in the mountains and forests can be vaguely seen.
“It’s very beautiful. Autumn is here, perfect for hiking and hiking.”
Cao Weidong said calmly.
"Yes, she loved going out when she was young. Every time she saw beautiful scenery, she was always very happy. Unfortunately, we never went anywhere. I was too busy with work at that time and couldn't take care of spending time with her.
When she goes out, she always wants to wait until she gets older and has time to talk..."
"Unknowingly, we both got older and I had more time, but she..."
Wang He seemed to be trapped in some kind of memory, murmuring in a low voice.
Cao Weidong keenly captured the other party's thoughts.
"So...you plan to take your wife on a trip to make up for her youthful wish? Don't you choose to go abroad for treatment?"
Wang He looked at Cao Weidong with a wry smile and asked.
"Mr. Cao, do you think my wife can be saved?"
Cao Weidong was silent.
Actually there are two methods.
The first method is to wait for society to develop for a few more decades and freeze the patients after cryonics technology matures. When humans overcome terminal diseases such as ALS in the future, the human body will be thawed and treated.
Da Liu wrote a science fiction novel in which there is a similar plot about time travel through a freezing warehouse.
But this is obviously unrealistic, and the patient cannot sustain it for such a long time.
The second method is relatively simple.
It was Cao Weidong who bought the special medicine in his Wanjie Mall.
But this requires a huge amount of points and risks exposure.
Cao Weidong and Wang He are neither relatives nor friends, so there is really no need to pay so much for each other.
Although I have some sympathy for Wang He's experience.
But he still shook his head.
Wang He said with a wry smile.
"Actually, after you left last night, I went to visit a doctor with whom I have a good relationship. He told me that there is indeed a disease called ALS, and he had read it in a magazine. The description of the symptoms was similar to what you said."
"The doctor told me that if my wife really suffers from ALS, there will be no treatment not only at home but also abroad, so I plan to take her to travel around the country during this period to satisfy her young needs.
It’s a pity that it was never completed.”
Cao Weidong agreed.
"That's fine. Instead of wasting your limited time on treatment and anxious waiting, it's better to accept it calmly and take your lover to see it at home and abroad. The world is really big and beautiful."
"Thanks."
Wang He expressed his sincere gratitude.
"Yes, then let's make the delivery."
Cao Weidong asked Xu Aiguo to come up with the money he had prepared in advance, and the gold in it was converted into cash of the same value.
"I calculate one gram of gold as two hundred yuan. Here is eighteen thousand in cash. Count it."
Wang He thanked him, then walked over, counted the money carefully, and then put it away.
"Then let's do the formal handover."
Wang He took Cao Weidong to the streets near the Siheyuan. Then he took out various documents and made the handover in an official and impartial manner.
From today on, this 3,000-square-meter courtyard belongs to Cao Weidong.
In fact, the transfer and handling of house property rights fall within the scope of the Housing Authority.
But at this time, there was no housing authority in Sijiucheng.
It would not be established until 1987, when the real estate wave in China fully flourished.
Taking his own documents and putting them away, Cao Weidong made an agreement with Wang He that the other party would move out within a week and vacate the courtyard to him.
Watching the other party leave, Cao Weidong began to think about renovating the courtyard.
"It's better to ask Lao Wang. He is a local and should have connections."
.......
Silly Zhu had something on his mind, so when he went to work, he would look at the clock hanging on the wall from time to time.
Finally, when it was time to get off work, he immediately took off his chef uniform, said hello to MCA, and left without looking back.
The chefs in the cafeteria looked at each other.
Someone asked curiously.
"Ma Hua, what's wrong with your master? Feeling weird today?"
MCA was actually puzzled.
"I don't know either. Maybe my master is worried about something today..."
As he said this, Ma Hua's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of what Silly Zhu said to him that morning.
But his face remained calm as he picked up the rag at hand and said.
"Let's not inquire about this matter. Come on, let's help. Let's clean the iron pot together..."
Seeing that there was no news, everyone dispersed.
the other side.
Silly Zhu ran to the tavern near the back door of the steel rolling mill and bought a pound of liquor, bought a few snacks to go with the wine, and then went straight to the cadres' dormitory.
When he got here, he knocked on the door.
Soon, an old woman came over and opened the door.
After seeing Silly Pillar, the man said.
"It's Silly Zhu, why are you here?"
Silly Zhu said obediently.
"I'm here to see the big leader, is he there?"
"Here I am, watching the news in the house..."
The old woman said.
She is the leader's wife.
While they were talking, the big boss from the back room came out and immediately became happy when he saw Silly Zhu.
"Silly Zhu, why did you come to me?"
Silly Zhu raised the food and wine in his hand.
"Big boss, I'm here to have a drink with you."
The big leader's eyes almost turned into slits when he smiled.
"Okay, come in quickly. We're cooking at home. Let's have some drinks."
Silly Zhu responded and walked into the house. He found porridge and side dishes on the table in the living room. Apparently the leader was having a meal. He quickly walked over to place the dishes to go with the wine and took out the bulk wine.
At this time, the leader's wife also brought over two wine glasses.
Silly Zhu took the initiative to take the wine glass and pour the wine. He first toasted to the senior leader and then said with greetings.
"Big boss, how are you doing lately?"
The big leader said with a smile.
"I'm retired and just living my life like this. There's nothing good or bad about it. It's you, you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. What do you want to do with me?"
