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

In the afternoon, Li Shibai and his friends decided to go out and stroll around the city. They first went to the People's Shopping Mall to buy all the daily necessities they needed.

Since they came to the city with light luggage, they had to buy all kinds of daily necessities.

Li Zihang naturally took the role of tour guide.

Uncle Qi, Aunt Qi, Big Brother, Second Brother, and Yu Shui were either at work or at school at this time. So they hadn't met since they returned home.

The women in the next yard who were not working greeted Li Zihang enthusiastically when they saw him.

At the gate of No. 40 Courtyard, Qin Huairu, who had just returned from the toilet, ran into a group of people who were about to go out.

"Hey, young master, you're back! I haven't seen you for a while."

Li Zihang: "I went to the south and just came back today."

Qin Huairu: "No wonder~ Who are these people?"

Then he looked at Li Shilan and others!

Li Zihang: "They are my uncle and aunt. That one is my aunt. They just arrived in Sijiu City today."

"Mrs. Jia, please go ahead and do your work. We are going to go out for a while."

"Young Master, you are busy."

Two people shared a bicycle. Li Shibai rode with his wife, and Li Shilan rode Li Zihang's ladies' bicycle with him.

Following his guidance, we headed towards the People's Shopping Mall.

Jia's family! The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started gossiping again.

"Mom, guess who I ran into at the door just now!"

Jia Zhang was sewing the soles of her shoes and glanced at Qin Huairu.

"How would I know who you met?"

Qin Huairu: "The young master next door who disappeared for more than 20 days is back. He brought three young men and women with him, saying they are his uncle and aunt."

Jia Zhang: "No matter how rich a person is, he will always have a few poor relatives. There's nothing strange about that."

Feelings such as: "You are wrong. Those people, their clothes, their speech. They don't look poor to me."

Jia Zhang: "Whether we have money or not has nothing to do with our family. Don't even think about getting anything."

"Their family is willing to let you take advantage of them, not because they are stupid. They just don't care about people like us. Our calculating things are nothing in their eyes."

"If you have the ability to build a relationship with the neighbors, then our family's life will not only soar, but also rise to a higher level."

Qin Huairu whispered: "I would like to,"

"Mom, I'm going to wash the diapers for Banggeng and Xiaodang."

In the department store, Li Shibai's wife, Dongju, and his sister-in-law, Li Shilan, were arm in arm, looking around. They would study any interesting things they found.

I just looked but didn't buy, which made the salesperson roll his eyes.

When has Li Zihang ever been looked down upon? As long as Aunt Dongju and Aunt Shilan really like something, he will ask the salesperson to pack it up as soon as they leave.

This scene made those sales clerks who looked down on others feel a little embarrassed.

Well! Less than half an hour later, Li Zihang, who was paying the bill, started to wave people helplessly.

Li Zihang turned around in the department store and looked around, finding the two people who followed him out today to protect him.

He waved to them.

"Uncles, we are at a loss today. Please bear with me and help carry these things."

"Young master, you are too polite. Leave the things to us. Don't worry. There is another brother behind. Just go shopping. We will take care of the rest."

Li Shibo, who was studying imported diesel lighters, saw his nephew talking to strangers and handing them a bunch of things. He was a little confused and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Later, I learned that these things were favored by my wife and sister but not bought. So I quickly found the two people in front.

"I say, you two, that's enough. You were just busy shopping and didn't even look at what was behind you! If you didn't buy anything you liked, I'll buy it all after you leave."

"Take it easy. Don't be too hasty. There's so much stuff here. I can't even carry it all."

Dongju and Shilan knew about this and turned back to look at Li Zihang.

It wasn't until they saw the invoice that they felt a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Hang, why didn't you ask us before buying something? Look at this.

The sister-in-law who was looking at the bills nearby pulled her sister-in-law aside and showed her a few bills. Then the two of them blushed and whispered something.

"Xiao Hang, next time you help us pay the bill, can you please ask us? These are women's private items."

"Your uncle never bought any for us. The first day we went to the mall, he asked you to buy all these things for us."

Aunt Dongju blushed and started to blame him.

Li Zihang: "Aunt, look. I don't understand these. I saw you guys were discussing for a long time but didn't buy anything. I thought you liked it but thought it was too expensive. The salesperson rolled his eyes and I bought it out of anger."

The two girls chatted for a while. After this incident, they lost interest. After buying the necessities, they prepared to go home.

Four people were riding leisurely and chatting in the front, while the three bodyguards in the back had their bicycles full of things.

When passing by a consignment store, Li Zihang had shopped for treasures in this store before. He thought that he hadn't been here for a long time, so he decided to check to see if there were any rare items.

Due to the shortage of materials in this era, let alone second-hand bicycles or watches.

Even old furniture, old clothes and shoes, and all kinds of second-hand daily necessities are for sale.

Walking around the streets, collecting chicken feathers, glass wine bottles, old clothes, old shoes. Even used toothpaste tubes are collected.

Consignment stores sell things that ordinary people cannot afford and that the truly wealthy do not value. If you put them in the Friendship Store, you cannot offer a price for them, or they will not accept them.

All kinds of old stuff. Just like a grocery store.

Li Zihang, during this period of strolling, found objects that only existed in this special period.

The spoils of war taken by soldiers on the battlefield during the Northern Peninsula War.

Wow, an old American air force soldier, with a leather jacket, glasses, lighters of various foreign brands, watches, a kettle, an engineer shovel, and some daggers and sabers.

There are also many 80% new foreign military tactical boots, both high-top and low-top.

There are also some second-hand five-piece suits.

There were old pocket watches, vinyl record players from the Republic of China era, Western sofas, and all kinds of high-end second-hand Western tableware, knives, forks, plates, bowls, and coffee cups.

There are also some old tables and chairs made of precious Chinese wood, unknown paintings, and various Chinese porcelains with different uses.

There were also some strange objects, all kinds of living tools, except for sickles, hammers, hoes and the like. The rest were things you couldn't imagine, but there was nothing you couldn't see.

The whole thing is like a large second-hand flea market.

Don't mention it, you can find treasures there from time to time. It all depends on your personal vision.

He walked over to a vinyl record player and found that it was very exquisite. A large copper speaker was like a morning glory. Various characters and story backgrounds were engraved on the large copper speaker. The base was a wooden box for playing vinyl records.

The characters and stories engraved on the eight petals of the copper trumpet are all from the West.

Li Zihang lowered his head to study the background story on the brass trumpet. After reading it for a long time, he finally understood that it was about the Western Crusades, from the reorganization of the armaments before departure, to the speeches before the expedition, and then the war on the battlefield. After the defeat, they fled, and then returned in defeat.

Each of the copper petals is a scene from a story, and when the eight petals are linked together, they tell the complete story of the Crusades.

Just as he understood the background on the copper trumpet, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance. This fragrance was extremely unique. The fragrance was light and elegant, but if you smelled it carefully, it was like water without roots, and you couldn't find the source. It would appear from time to time. It was like the fragrance of osmanthus.

He scratched the wooden casing of the base record player with his fingernails, then put it to his nose and sniffed it.

The aroma is long-lasting and has the scent of flowers and plants. It is extremely beautiful, sweet, cool and rich, and the fragrant milk flavor is charming and long-lasting.

The more Li Zihang studied, the more he found something wrong. The outer layer of wood was agarwood.

It is still the rarest agarwood.

Don't ask him how he knew it. In his room, every time before he went to sleep, his grandmother would light some agarwood for him.

Over time, as soon as you entered his house, you could smell that unique fragrance, and even the clothes he wore on a daily basis still had the scent.

Li Zihang wanted to see which boss the record player belonged to, to see if there was a name mark or family emblem on it.

After some searching, he finally found it.

On the edge of a petal behind the large copper trumpet, there is a row of foreign characters.

He understood the meaning at a glance. Leonard Woodcock Robert Carr. This name was unfamiliar to him, and he thought about going back to ask the old men at home.

After some bargaining with the clerk, I finally bought it for 178 yuan.

"Comrade salesman, do you have any records? Otherwise, I can't just buy them to display them."

"There are a lot of old records on the shelf over there, for all kinds of pianos and violins. There are symphonies, classical music, jazz, and old songs from the Republic of China period. Take a look for yourself."

Li Zihang was flipping through some old vinyl records and selected five records of the most popular singers during the Republic of China period.

I also selected 3 well-known foreign piano performances, 2 violin solos, symphonies, and jazz.

In the end, he bought the vinyl records for $1.50 each.

"Comrade salesman, have you received any new goodies recently? You didn't call me once when I left you the number last time."

Salesperson: "My dear comrade, I called your number twice, but the person who answered said you were not at home and had gone on a long trip. Can you blame me?"

"If you hadn't bought things from us many times, I would have suspected that you were a scammer."
