Siheyuan: Stepping on many birds, eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks

Chapter 152 Treasure Hunting



Chapter 152 Treasure Hunting

Yan Jiekuang took out three dollars and gave it to the old man, then took the jar.

When the old man left and no one around him noticed, Yan Jiekuang put the jar into the space.

As soon as the jars are in the space, water is used to wash them clean.

When the dirt on the jar is cleaned off, the patterns on the jar become clearly visible.

The patterns on this jar form several pictures. One is Zhang Fei fighting Lu Bu, one is Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fighting Lu Bu together, and finally Liu Bei is added.

Three heroes fight Lu Bu, the scene is exquisite.

"It won't be a problem for this Yuan blue and white porcelain to be sold for tens of millions in a few decades," Yan Jiekuang thought.

Yan Jiekuang made a fortune by buying the jar for three dollars.

Among the antiques in Yan Jiekuang's collection, this jar should be the most valuable.

The bus to Wucheng arrived and Yan Jiekuang got on it.

Although Wucheng is far smaller than the capital, it is much larger than Ganshi.

When he arrived in Wucheng, Yan Jiekuang went to a hotel with the letter of introduction.

It was too late and he could not catch the train to the capital, so he had to stay in Wucheng for one night.

Staying in a hotel for a night only costs two cents.

Hotels in Beijing are also 20 cents a night.

After checking into the room, Yan Jiekuang went to bed.

It’s getting late, go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow.

This time when delivering food to Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang had a clearer understanding of the rural areas of that era, and he also harvested some wild boars.

The biggest gain was the Yuan blue and white porcelain I bought for three yuan.

In Majia Village, Yan Jiefang sneaked out of the village.

Yan Jiefang had a sweet potato and a small piece of pork in his hand.

It's just over one or two pounds of pork.

Yan Jiefang wanted to eat meat, so he secretly ran out of the village to get it in the middle of the night.

Yan Jiekuang gave him 20 kilograms of pork, and Yan Jiefang planned to eat one kilogram every three days, which would last him two months. He would eat sweet potatoes and one egg every day.

When they got to the field, they found some hay and built a stove with mud.

I lit a fire and took out a small iron pot.

Roast the sweet potatoes directly and throw the pork into the pot.

When Yan Jiefang smelled the aroma of pork, his mouth was watering.

The taste was bad because there was no seasoning such as soy sauce and salt, but Yan Jiefang still thought it was delicious.

After eating pork, the roasted sweet potatoes seem a bit bland.

"It would be nice if I had a little more wine?" Yan Jiefang thought.

But it is not easy for Yan Jiefang to get a bottle of wine now.

Thinking about his current work points, Yan Jiefang plans to go to the supply and marketing cooperative next month to exchange them for a bottle of wine.

Work points are not easy to get, so every work point must be carefully calculated.

It's not just Yan Jiefang, everyone in the village is the same.

It is inevitable that work points can be used to offset daily food and drink expenses, but it is a bit tricky to use work points to exchange things at the supply and marketing cooperative.

After eating pork and sweet potatoes, Yan Jiefang was full, so he put out the fire, picked up the pot and went back to the village. No one noticed that Yan Jiefang had gone out.

As soon as he returned to the village, Yan Jiefang saw a sneaky figure near the chicken coop of the village party secretary's house.

Yan Jiefang saw that the figure was Chen Bing.

Chen Bing was also from Beijing. He went to the countryside with Yan Jiefang and was assigned to Majia Village.

"Stealing eggs again." Yan Jiefang muttered in his heart.

The village party secretary has two old hens.

Chen Bing came to steal eggs in the middle of the night.

Every month, Chen Bing only steals three eggs.

Three eggs were missing and the village party secretary didn’t even notice.

This was not the first time that Yan Jiefang saw Chen Bing stealing eggs, but Yan Jiefang did not say anything.

They were all educated youth who went to the countryside. If Chen Bing's theft of eggs was exposed, the villagers might think Yan Jiefang was not a good person. The educated youth who went to the countryside together were comrades-in-arms.

Besides, it’s just a few eggs.

Yan Jiefang just turned a blind eye.

It’s not easy for everyone these days. It’s good enough if you don’t starve to death in the countryside.

After walking around outside the chicken coop, Chen Bing didn't take action.

If there was only one egg in the chicken coop, Chen Bing would not take it.

Two hens, each laying one egg, can also lay two eggs.

In fact, Yan Jiefang had also thought about stealing a few eggs before.

Now, Yan Jiefang is in a good mood.

Earn some work points, use part of it to pay for daily food and drink in the village, and use the rest to exchange for supplies at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Now, with sweet potatoes, eggs, instant noodles and pork, Yan Jiefang can make everyone in the village envy him.

"Forget about it this year. I'll ask the third brother to send some supplies next year." Yan Jiefang thought.

If Yan Jiekuang sent some food every year, Yan Jiefang's life would be much better.

Those who can't make ends meet in the countryside have to rely on their neighbors or relatives for help.

Qin Huairu used to live a tight life and she would give some food to her parents every year, which was one of the reasons why Jia Zhangshi was dissatisfied with her. It was not uncommon for rural girls to give some food to their parents after marrying in the city.

Chen Bing went back to sleep, and Yan Jiefang also went back to sleep.

Yan Jiekuang woke up at daybreak.

Yan Jiekuang got up early, brushed his teeth, washed his face, and left the hotel.

Breakfast still needs to be prepared. Although there is food in the space, Yan Jiekuang plans to try the specialties of Wucheng.

There are roadside stalls before daybreak.

However, Yan Jiekuang did not have food coupons from Wucheng, so he needed national food coupons to buy things.

As the name suggests, national food coupons can be used anywhere in the country.

Today, although Yan Jiekuang has a lot of food coupons, most of them can only be used in the capital. In the past, Yan Jiekuang exchanged some national food coupons on the black market, and now he can use them.

I bought two steamed buns and a sesame cake at a roadside stall.

Whether it is steamed buns or sesame cakes, the taste is different from that in Beijing.

The buns have thin skin and large fillings, while the sesame cakes are solid.

Yan Jiekuang didn’t have a big appetite, so he was almost full after eating two buns.

In fact, one pancake can fill you up.

After filling his stomach, Yan Jiekuang went to the train station.

After arriving at the train station and buying a ticket, Yan Jiekuang just waited.

We have to wait about an hour for the train to arrive.

Trains are usually on time, but sometimes they are a little early or late.

Sitting at the station waiting, Yan Jiekuang looked at his watch. It was 5:13 in the morning. Everyone around him was staring at his watch.

This watch costs more than 100 yuan, which is enough to buy a bicycle. Even in Beijing, you don’t see many people wearing watches.

Yan Jiekuang not only wears a watch, he also looks very young.

It is even more surprising that someone as young as Yan Jiekuang owns a watch.

"He has a watch at such a young age. I'm afraid it belongs to a cadre family." "It's impossible that he bought it with his own money."

"If you can wear a watch, then the conditions are not bad."

"What a beautiful watch! I wish I could have one too."

People around who saw Yan Jiekuang’s watch were thinking in their hearts.

Yan Jiekuang didn't care about what others thought. He just looked at the time and didn't show off.

Time passed as Yan Jiekuang waited.

Ten minutes... Twenty minutes... Half an hour...

An hour later, the train arrived.

When the train stopped and the doors opened, many passengers got off.

Yan Jiekuang also queued up to get on the bus.

Get on the train and find your seat according to your ticket.
