Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

When Jiang Chao and Yu Jingshan heard He Yuzhu ask this, they smiled.

"He Yuzhu, you don't have to worry about the guard company. Although the guard company has been disbanded, its organization and structure have been retained. We have drawn a group of elites from various units and reorganized this guard company. The current guard company is the special combat hero company of our 113th Division.

In addition, your heroic deeds have now been promoted throughout the army as a model of heroism by the Volunteer Army Headquarters. I believe that it won’t be long before your heroic and glorious deeds appear in domestic textbooks. You have truly become a celebrity now!”

When He Yuzhu heard the news, he immediately showed joy. He never thought that one day he would be able to live to study.

After a few people continued to exchange pleasantries for a while, He Yuzhu came out of the command post and headed towards the 1st Battalion.

[Ding, the system detects that the host has been successfully promoted to the battalion commander of the Volunteer Army, and the current rank is Major]

[Daily automatic sign-in points are doubled again, and the automatic points earned every day are increased to 8 points]

[Ding, the system's built-in storage space has doubled to 1 cubic meters]

[Ding, the new function points mall is officially opened. The host can consume a certain amount of points to exchange for some useful character intelligence or information]

[Ding, this system is now issuing rewards for the host's promotion to major, with 800 reward points. You can choose any of the following four rewards]

Option 1: 30 kg bag of refined flour;

Option 2: 30 kg bag of cornmeal;

Option 3: 2 liters of pure natural milk without additives;

Option 4: One piece of salted pork, net weight 2 kg;

Option 5: A random talent card;

Option 6: One black-skinned watermelon;

Option 7: An old hen that lays eggs;

Option 8: The first set of new Huaxia currency 1 yuan;

Option 9: 500 points;

Option 10: One small yellow croaker, net weight 50 grams;

He Yuzhu was surprised to find that there were as many as 10 items to choose from this time, most of which were food, and the number of selectable rewards reached four this time.

He immediately couldn't wait to start screening.

The first option is refined flour. This stuff is a good thing. You must know that the domestic productivity is low and the grain output is not high. Only the landlords and wealthy businessmen can afford this refined flour. This stuff can not only be used to make noodles but also buns. It must be chosen!

However, He Yuzhu directly ignored the second option, cornmeal. Cornmeal is the raw material for making steamed corn bread, which is what ordinary people eat. It is far inferior to refined flour. I don't know what the system was thinking, but it actually included this thing in the reward options.

The third option was 2 liters of pure natural milk without additives. This was a luxury item nowadays and only the rich and the children of aristocratic families could enjoy it. After much thought, He Yuzhu decided to give up, mainly because this thing was difficult to preserve and the quantity was too small to satisfy hunger.

The fourth option is a two-kilogram piece of bacon. Meat has always been a scarce commodity, so this is a must.

As for option 5, which rewards a random talent card, he had to choose it without even thinking about it. His previous talent of extraordinary physique had given He Yuzhu a lot of conveniences and advantages.

Option 6, the black-skinned watermelon, was useless to He Yuzhu. Now was not the time to enjoy it, so he simply chose to ignore it.

The remaining seventh option, the old hen that lays eggs, was also ignored by He Yuzhu. It was not because the eggs were not delicious, but because the system space could not hold living things. In addition, if he secretly raised one in the barracks and was discovered, it would be a restoration of capitalism and he would definitely be sent to a military court, which would be very embarrassing.

The 8th option is the new Hua Xia currency with a face value of 1 yuan. Most people would definitely choose this without even thinking about it. After all, money has been a good thing since ancient times, and it’s yuan!

However, He Yuzhu, who knew a little about history, gave up this option without hesitation. It was not because he did not love money, but because in this era, the purchasing power of the first set of 10,000 new Hua Xia currency issued was actually similar to that of one yuan. The main reason was that the level of inflation in the country was very severe. Only after the second set of new Hua Xia currency came out, prices would gradually stabilize.

For He Yuzhu, he thought that this option was a trap set by the system, but fortunately he did not fall for it.

As for the points for option 9, He Yuzhu was not very interested, mainly because he had already saved quite a lot of points. 500 was not too much, but not too little either, so he just skipped it.

The last option is a 50-gram gold bar, commonly known as "small yellow croaker". The system had given me a chance to choose it before, but I did not choose it at that time because of the limited reward items.

But this is a different time now. You can choose this thing now. After the Korean War is over and we return to China, this thing will be useful.

After thinking about it, He Yuzhu made a decision.

"System, I've made up my mind. I choose options 1, 4, 5, and 10."

[Ding, a friendly reminder to the host, once the current selection is confirmed, it cannot be changed. Do you confirm to select these four items? ]

He Yuzhu heard this without any hesitation and blurted out,

"confirm"

[Ding, selection confirmed, rewards issued, host please check]

As soon as the system's electronic prompt sounded, a 30-kilogram bag of refined flour, a piece of bacon, a small "yellow croaker" and a card with a slight glow appeared out of thin air in He Yuzhu's system space.

He Yuzhu couldn't wait to take out the random talent extraction card from the system space.

"System, I want to use this random talent card now!"

[Ding, the card was used successfully. Currently, the host has the following three talents to choose from.]

[Talent 1: Water Boy. As the name suggests, it can make the host naturally have an affinity for water and can reduce the resistance encountered by the host when swimming underwater by half.]

[Talent 2: Iron Stomach, can make the host's stomach stronger than that of an average person, and the host's hunger tolerance is twice that of an average person.]

[Talent 3: A gifted orator, he is very powerful and approachable when giving speeches, and is more likely to convince others or gain their approval through words]

He Yuzhu looked at the three talents in front of him and began to fall into deep thought.
