Siheyuan: I am a big capitalist after the founding of the People's Republic of China

The eleventh ancestor has been living in the Li family for a week.

Ever since he saw the six Burning Sky Chickens in the backyard, he became very interested.

Apart from teaching Li Zihang a few times from time to time.

The rest of the time was spent studying the six chickens.

Just two days ago, I didn't know where they got the five poisonous insects from.

Feed six chickens with live five poisons.

The five poisonous animals are centipede, poisonous snake, toad, gecko and scorpion.

But the five poisons brought by the Eleventh Patriarch are different from the ordinary five poisons.

The centipede is black all over and can be up to 20 centimeters long.

Hundreds of them were densely packed in two large ceramic jars.

Venomous snakes, black, yellow and red in color. About 50 cm long, they come in all sizes, but the largest one is no longer than 50 cm.

They were also kept in two large ceramic jars, containing seventy to eighty poisonous snakes of various sizes.

There was also a large group of geckos that were brought from somewhere and were kept in the empty 50-square-meter room at the bottom of the three two-story building in the backyard.

Wow, there are hundreds of them crawling densely together.

He also built several stinky water tanks in the house, and placed stinking dead animals in them. Mosquitoes and insects were buzzing around inside.

The four tanks containing poisonous snakes and centipedes were also placed in that side room.

There is a small area in the backyard near the fish pond and the well, and a one-meter-high fence is tightly fitted on the fence.

There are no less than a hundred toads in it.

That toad is different from other toads. I don't know what species it is. Its belly is yellow. It's not big, at least not bigger than a duck egg.

Second courtyard, hanging flower gate, corner of the west wall.

Various broken tiles were stacked up layer by layer, until the tiles were piled up to 1 meter high.

It was crawling with scorpions of various sizes.

Fortunately, our ancestors prepared some powder to control them and sprinkled it on the ground, giving them a restricted area.

It will definitely not run out.

When it was time to feed the chickens, our ancestors would get a certain number of the five poisonous animals and put them in the chicken coop.

Fentian Chicken is also strange. When it sees these things, it likes to eat them very much.

Two chickens would fight from time to time because of a poisonous snake.

Our ancestors also prepared some bone-enhancing powder and mixed it with the rice bran used to feed the chickens. Add some water and stir, and the chickens love it.

The two peacocks have now been driven away and live with the normal chickens.

Ever since our ancestors raised those poisonous creatures, the backyard has become completely quiet, and the kids no longer play in the backyard.

There's no way around it. Who wouldn't feel their scalp tingling after seeing those things?

Li Zihang is in a state of excitement again today, with half a cow's heart.

Riding a bicycle, coming back from the slaughterhouse.

It was a bit busy today. In two hours, I slaughtered three pigs and a cow.

Passing by the overpass, I looked at the streets that no longer had the bustling atmosphere of the past.

Sighed.

Since the cooperation, those who make a living by performing on the overpass.

The state arranged for them to form a professional folk art circus.

They went to the countryside to perform for their fellow villagers, bringing some fun to this entertainment-starved era.

Those who sell handicrafts are also arranged in Liulichang, and half a street is specially set up as ethnic handicraft shops.

Those who set up stalls to sell various snacks are also arranged together to make a snack street.

From then on, the overpass no longer had its former atmosphere.

It became an ordinary street.

But it became a street for vagrants.

Young people without jobs like to gather on the overpass and fight from time to time to fight for territory.

The overpass has now become a gathering place for taking pictures of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, stick-wielding people, various Buddhists, and thieves.

If someone’s home is stolen.

You go to the overpass and find the door.

We promise that your lost items will be returned to you intact.

But you still have to pay for the tea.

In this era, petty theft is a crime.

That's in accordance with the rules, whether it's stealing a wallet or entering a house and stealing something.

I have to keep it at home for three days before selling it, for fear that someone will steal it from an important person.

They came to me so that I could give them an explanation.

The item is returned to the owner and the thief receives a reward.

But next time you steal, you have to keep your eyes open.

If you steal from that big shot.

In mild cases, fingers may be severed, while in severe cases, hands may be severed.

But now the overpass looks like an ordinary street during the day.

After dark at night, it becomes lively.

Early morning, after 12 o'clock.

A ghost market has emerged here because of the arrival of the bill era.

Those who sell and buy all gather here.

The ghost market at Tianqiao is controlled by a few of the biggest vagrants.

To buy into the market, you have to pay one cent.

I don't know how much stall fee they should be given for selling. Of course, it also depends on what they sell, if it is a large quantity of goods.

For example, in case of food, at least 1% commission should be given to the other party.

If you don't want to pay, then whether you are buying or selling, you'd better not come.

If most people want to be cruel, they will die without knowing how they died.

Just like last time, Li Zihang just listened to the secret guards fighting and chatting.

Speaking of the Tianqiao ghost market, some time ago, there were two blind people.

Five Type 38 rifles were picked up from the old forest.

Sneaking to the ghost market to sell, what a guy.

When the blind drifters heard the news, they were almost scared to death.

This is the capital city~

Someone was selling guns at the ghost market, luckily nothing happened.

This incident would be a big deal. If the spear was lost from their ghost market, something bad would happen.

None of these people will survive.

So a few bosses quickly took control of the idiot who was selling the spears.

Later I heard that the two men had their tendons cut off and were thrown into the moat outside the city to feed the fish.

If you sell a pistol secretly, that's fine.

But those two idiots had implicated everyone in the ghost market. It would be strange if they didn't die.

Li Zihang was also curious about the ghost market.

So one time I asked the old man for instructions.

I took the two of them and went for a sneaky stroll in the middle of the night.

They sell all kinds of things in there.

People from the countryside come to the city to sell mountain products, game, sweet potatoes, millet, white flour, cornmeal, and rice.

There are all kinds of mountain products and game for sale, including countless kinds of animal delicacies.

That time, when visiting the ghost market, Li Zihang also saw people selling bear bile, bear meat, and bear paws.

When they went there, the bear skin had just been bought by someone.

Goat meat, pangolin, wild boar meat, venison, roe deer meat, antler, deer penis, bobcat (relic), pheasant. Hare. There were all kinds of them, animals I knew and animals I didn’t. There were so many that he was overwhelmed.

They were all one or two, or just a few, put in a sack and placed on the ground.

Large animals are cut into pieces at home, weighed, and sold directly at the ghost market.

Some people also sell fish they have caught or fished. Loaches, eels, turtles, big carps, big crucian carps. Take a bucket and put some straw next to it. Or lotus leaves.

Whatever fish you want, you can negotiate the price and tie it up with straw. You just pay and take it away.

The eel and loach seller had a small bamboo cage next to him. After paying, he would just carry the eel and loach away.

There are also people selling dry tobacco leaves, all bundled up, sold in bunches. Not expensive, 2 yuan a bunch. Normally enough for one person to smoke for half a month.

There are also countless strange and weird things left.

There are also those impoverished families, the old and young who were left behind.

Secretly take old items from home and sell them at the ghost market.

Nowadays, old items cannot be sold at a high price in antique shops or consignment shops.

So these people would take their things to the ghost market to sell.

There are bottles and jars, various rare books, the four treasures of the study, snuff bottles, and all kinds of miscellaneous things.

There are also people who sell various tickets, commonly known as ticket scalpers.

Selling all kinds of tickets, industrial tickets, wine tickets, cotton tickets, cloth tickets, cigarette tickets, watch tickets, and bicycle tickets.

As long as the tickets are not too outrageous and available on the market, they can get them for you. Of course, the price is very expensive.

There are also various second-hand small items for sale, such as flashlights, second-hand radios, pens, clothes, and shoes.

Many of these items were taken by thieves when they went to rob people’s houses. When they saw nice clothes or shoes, they would just wrap them up in bed sheets and leave.

The ghost market also sells various canned foods and military products.

Daggers, military shovels, military shoes, leather jackets, compasses, first aid kits, binoculars, and even gas masks. Can you believe this?

These things are basically the trophies of retired soldiers or souvenirs after retirement.

Anyway, there are all kinds of weird things.

Whether buying or selling, everyone covered their faces with cloth. Even if they met someone they knew, they had to pretend not to know them.

As far as he knew, the uncle next door would often sneak into the ghost market in the middle of the night to sell the big fish he caught.

I want to ask why the police don't do anything.

Stop joking, every family has poor relatives.

Many of their family members sneaked into the ghost market to buy fish and meat.

As long as nothing goes wrong, the police will turn a blind eye.

After that incident, Li Zihang really opened his eyes.

Li Zihang was thinking about the ghost market.

If you think about this while riding a bike, it would be strange if nothing happens.

Look, I wasn't paying attention and bumped into someone.

Li Zihang fell off his horse and his bicycle fell to the ground.

The person who was hit also rolled away.

Because he has good physical fitness and quick reaction.

One hand on the ground. Do a sideways turn.

So there is nothing wrong with people.

But the person he hit was not so lucky.

The child who was hit rolled one meter away.

There were multiple abrasions all over the body.

He didn't care about that anymore.

Hurry up and check the other person's injuries.

It was okay to take a look at it once, but when I took a look at it again, I was stunned.

It was because the person he hit was a kid who looked 70% like him.

After helping the man up, he found that he was a head shorter than him.

He looked malnourished, with a big head and a small body. His clothes kept hanging on his body.

The child he hit had several scratches on his arms and legs.

The most serious one was abraded and bleeding.

After getting up, the other party quickly apologized to him and asked Li Zihang to forgive him.

This confused Li Zihang.

He was the one who was hit, but it was made as if Li Zihang was the one who was hit.

As an aside, the child’s behavior is actually understandable.

No matter what Li Zihang wears, the bicycle he rides, or his temperament, he looks like a kid from a wealthy family.

In addition, the child who was hit by Li Zihang had clothes full of patches and looked malnourished.

You can tell at first glance that he is a child from the lowest class of society.

The other party couldn't afford to offend him, and as a child from a poor family, he also felt inferior.

I was afraid that I would damage Li Zihang’s bicycle and ask him to pay for it.

If you scratch yourself and it bleeds a little, it will heal in a few days.

If Li Zihang asked him to compensate for the car, it would be a matter of life and death.

I really don't have the money, and I can't afford to pay, and I'm afraid of bringing trouble to my family. That's why it happened.
