Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Zeng Wangcai’s call of “Dad” was not in vain. After a ding sound, he “saw” a camera. In the camera was a picture that was very familiar to him.

Isn't this the Shanghai Port? Is this your system?

His mind sank into the camera, which slowly zoomed in, allowing him to see the entire scene more clearly.

That’s right, this is where he worked “before he died”, the world’s largest port, the port ranked first in the world in terms of container throughput for 14 consecutive years, and this port is still in operation, with people loading and unloading, and cars coming and going.

His mind continued to sink, and he suddenly found himself entering the camera and coming to the familiar workplace?

Wearing it back again?

No, it's not going back, it's going in. The port and warehouse that were busy just now were now empty. The air seemed to be frozen, and the clock hanging in the sentry box had also stopped.

Wow, this is my system?

It stops working when I come in and continues working when I go out. Isn't this an inexhaustible supply?

曾旺财想起一组看到过的关于上港港口的数据：公用码头生产用仓库总面积计34.5万平方米和散粮圆筒仓17万立方米，生产用堆场总面积计177.6万平方米，其中煤堆场28.3万平方米；集装箱堆场54.7万平方米。

This was data from seven or eight years ago, and it is even bigger now.

What does this mean? I don’t know how long it takes to just walk around, let alone eat.

“Damn, the space is too big. There is no artificial intelligence system like the systems in novels such as the one-cent flash sales, discounted products, and free draws. There will be a butler or something like that for conversation. But when it was my turn, I just shouted “Dad” and agreed…” Zeng Wangcai shamelessly complained as he looked at the huge territory.

This is because the system really didn't assign a housekeeper to him, otherwise it would definitely rush over and yell at him: What bicycle do you want?

However, Zeng Wangcai has worked here for four years. Although he slacks off at work, he is very familiar with this place and knows where to find things.

Now the huge port belongs to him alone, all the doors are open to him, and everything is at his disposal.

In a hurry, Zeng Wangcai found a Mercedes-Benz G63 in the parking lot and drove the car to inspect his territory. In the car, he just needed to think and the container would open.

He basically understood the function of the space. He could transfer things here out just by moving his mind. When he returned to the courtyard world, he experimented and found that things outside could also be taken in.

For example, he can also take this Mercedes-Benz G63 out.

But at this time in 59, taking a G63 out is stupid. You can't eat or drink. Where can you get No. 98 National VI gasoline?

After spending some time, Zeng Wangcai drove to a warehouse where rice, flour, grain, oil, and meat were stored. He did not take them out, but left them in the warehouse. Anyway, he could take them out whenever he thought of it. Keeping them here was safer and could avoid trouble.

Some people may ask, what's the trouble with this, isn't this a good thing?

Haha, if you really think so, then I can only say that you don’t understand human nature. As the saying goes, a little bit of kindness is repaid with a big bit of resentment. It does not mean that the more you give, the more grateful others will be to you.

He was no longer starving and could eat and drink delicious food. Zeng Wangcai felt very relieved. He returned to the real world with a thought and found himself in his own room.

As mentioned before, the Zeng family lives opposite the home of the third uncle Yan Fugui. There are three rooms opposite, but the old tailor left more than three rooms for Zeng Youqian, but all of them, including the one where Zeng Wangcai lives now.

The Siheyuan is actually a courtyard with four entrances. There is a back building in front of the front yard, and three rooms next to the gate. The one on the east side is where Zeng Wangcai lives now.

It was morning. Zeng Wangcai was lying on a bed covered with a straw mat. There was no kang in this room, only in his parents' room and his two younger brothers' room. He was feeling hungry when he suddenly heard someone at the door. He quickly squinted his eyes and pretended to be asleep. He saw his father Zeng Youqian standing at the door for a few seconds, then sighed and left to go to work.

The original owner had a very bad relationship with her father Zeng Youqian because of the child marriage issue and they hadn't spoken to each other for a long time.

Zeng Youqian felt that the original owner was ungrateful for what he had. It was a free wife, so you should at least go and meet her to see if she was suitable, right?

Where can you find such a good thing in the future? After they fall in love, they don't even touch each other's hands, but the request for a dowry is 18.8 yuan. This is still considered low. There are also 30 and 50 yuan. And the person who asks you for a dowry may only be able to afford it with 598,698, 998 or yuan.

That's fine, but the point is that even if you give the bride price, you might still be sued for rape, and you won't get a wife, but you'll still have to work on the sewing machine.

Even if you really get married, it may not be stable. You may have three children, and none of them will be yours. If you ask her why she treats you like this, she will feel aggrieved and say that the children have called you dad for more than ten years. Does it matter whether they are biological children or not?

Isn’t this fucked!

As he was thinking, he felt drowsy again and fell asleep. During that time, he felt his mother Chen Yumei come in to see him and call him to eat, but he was too sleepy to get up.

In addition to his mother Chen Yumei, his two younger brothers had also come. When he digested the memories, he knew that the relationship between the original owner and his two younger brothers was like that. This was normal. Not all brothers loved each other. In the past, there were those who fell out over family property. Now, there are also those who break up over trivial matters such as a word or even a tree.

For example, Liu Haizhong's family in the backyard is even more excessive than Zeng's family, and using violence is the lightest punishment.

However, the situation between the original owner and his younger brothers did not reach this point, mainly because the age gap between the original owner and his younger brothers was too big, and they could not communicate with each other. In fact, Zeng You and his wife originally had five children, two of whom died prematurely. In those days, having children was easy, but as for whether they could grow up safely, it was not entirely determined by humans. It was like crops, it depended on the weather.

I didn’t know how long I slept until the door was pushed open with a bang: “Wangcai, Wangcai, mom is calling you to get up. Second uncle is here.”

Damn, the name sounds like a dog!

Zeng Wangcai opened his eyes, climbed up and sat on the bed, scratching his eyes, and glanced at his second son Zeng Xiaoqiang who was standing at the door with his bare chest and only wearing a pair of underwear.

Ten-year-old Zeng Xiaoqiang was in the growth stage, but he was as thin as a bamboo pole, with his ribs clearly visible. This was the case for all the people in the city, let alone those in the countryside.

"Second uncle is here? Why is he here in such hot weather?" Zeng Wangcai was completely awake.

He looked outside and estimated that it was almost twelve o'clock. The fifty miles were already there. His uncle probably was lucky enough to get a ride on the road. There was no way he would be willing to spend money on a ride.

"No, what did you call me just now?" Zeng Wangcai came to his senses, stood up and pretended to kick the second brother.

Perhaps because he was scared of being beaten, Zeng Xiaoqiang immediately begged for mercy: "Brother, brother, I was wrong, please don't beat me, I'll tell you a secret."

"Tell me what you mean. If you say it's good, I'll let you go. If you say it's not good, I'll beat you to death!" Zeng Wangcai threatened deliberately.

Zeng Xiaoqiang didn't know it was a threat, so he ran out, his little face showing from the curtain: "Second uncle is here to take you back to your hometown. Your parents are going to find you a wife. When you get married, you won't have time to beat me. Go beat your wife, and beat her until she screams at night..."
