Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

"Go in and see how it works."

Chen Xu took Lin Chan into his second hand-built building.

Lin Chan visited every room with a look of surprise. The room was actually only about 100 square meters, and only two of the three rooms were bedrooms, and the other one was a study.

In addition to the living room, there is also a kitchen and dining room, but there are no iron pots or anything like that except wooden furniture.

Chen Xu was already thinking about where he should get some iron or something. The steel mill would definitely not be an option. Even if he could ensure that no one would discover what he was doing, the waste products from the steel mill needed to be recycled. If a large amount of them were lost, someone would probably be held responsible.

Chen Xu didn't think he was a good person, but he wouldn't harm other people for no reason, so he could only find another way.

He is now considering whether to find an iron mine or something.

For him, as long as there is a mine, extracting metals from it is easier than eating and drinking. In fact, there are more or less metals in the land outside, but the quantity is too small, so it is very troublesome to get a large amount of metal.

In fact, there is an iron mine near Sijiucheng. The Shouyun Iron Mine is located in Jugezhuang Town, Miyun District, Sijiucheng, only a few dozen kilometers away from the urban area of ​​Sijiucheng. Moreover, this iron mine is currently in the exploration stage. It was discovered in 1959 and development began in the 1960s.

But Chen Xu was an ordinary person in his previous life and obviously would not be interested in the distribution of minerals. All he knew about were some very famous resource areas, such as the Daqing Oilfield.

As for the distribution of these smaller resources, we are completely in the dark.

Besides, this is not the future, and resource distribution maps and the like are all top secret, making it impossible for outsiders to know them.

China is a vast country with abundant resources, and there are more than one or two jackals who want to take advantage of it. It is naturally impossible to put this kind of information in places like libraries. If Chen Xu wants to get the iron, he has to think of other ways.

But he was not in a hurry. After all, there were not many places where he needed to use metal right now. Many pots, pans, and other things could be made of wood. Finally, those that needed to be made of metal were not difficult to get. At worst, he could just buy the finished products on the black market.

Not all of the house is made of wood. For example, the stove is made of stones found locally. You just need to throw some coal in, or use firewood.

In addition, some special crops can also be planted, such as cotton and rapeseed.

In order for a space to be completely self-sufficient, all aspects must be taken into consideration, which is a big test for Chen Xu, the novice master of the world.

As he walked out of the room, Chen Xu saw two little black dogs confronting the fish in the pond.

On one side were two tigers, and on the other side were more than 100,000 crucian carps and carps, the two sides staring at each other.

Xiao Hei 12's thoughts were surprisingly consistent, both thinking about how to catch fish, while the big yellow carp in the pond was marching and arranging the formations, asking the other fish to be ready, as long as these two dared to go into the water, they would beat them to death...

He walked up and stroked the two cats' heads, told Xiao Hei to go to the pond and catch fish if he was hungry, and then sent them out of the space.

Now is not the time to raise Xiao Hei, let’s wait for a while.

There is no difference between raising a tiger on dozens of acres of land and locking it in a cage. Besides, Xiao Hei is not the kind of tiger that grew up in a zoo. He would probably get sick if he was kept in such a small space.

Reach out and pick up the big carp.

"You are quite protective..."

Carp: My master is praising me, I am happy...

"From now on, you will be called Koi."

Chen Xu casually gave the big golden carp a name and then put it back into the water.

The harvest from this trip to Yanshan was actually not that great. In addition to the Chinese toon tree, there were also two wild mulberry trees, both of which were of some value.

In fact, there are some wild fruit trees, but the taste is terrible. Most of the fruit trees that have not been cultivated are actually not worth planting. He knows this well.

Lin Chan's harvest was not great. There really were not many prey in Yanshan now. He only caught two pheasants along the way and didn't even see a rabbit.

Chen Xu planned to stay here for a few days and then look around to see if he could catch some other animals. Poultry was always available, but wild animals were simply not available for purchase. Even if a hunter caught one, it would be dead and had no value to Chen Xu except for cooking.

Siheyuan.

He Daqing, who had been away for a month, came back again.

After Yu Shui mentioned that he should go back to Sijiu City last time, He Daqing thought hard and came up with a solution.

After returning to Baoding, he was injured less than a month after working. The injury seemed to be quite serious. He Daqing told Widow Bai that his hand might not heal, and he sighed all day long at home.

He Daqing's hand was indeed injured, he burned it on purpose, but it had nothing to do with a fracture.

But that didn't stop him from hanging one hand.

He wanted to see how the White Widow and her two adopted sons treated him.

Needless to say, when He Daqing returned to Beijing, apart from the hundred yuan secretly given to him by the White Widow, his two adopted sons who had raised him for many years almost kicked him out.

He Daqing couldn't tell whether he should be disappointed or relieved.

He stared at the White Widow for a long time, and the woman didn't dare to look him in the eye.

He Daqing sighed, turned around and left without saying anything.

After returning, He Daqing lived in Sha Zhu's house, and he looked as if he had aged ten years. Although he had expected this, he still felt bad when it really came to this.

After all, he had raised his two adopted sons for so many years, and he and the White Widow had also spent so many years together. As the saying goes, a night of marriage brings a hundred nights of love, and a hundred days of marriage bring a deep sea together.

In He Daqing's heart, the White Widow and her two sons are not even as good as dogs. Even if he has two dogs, they will at least wag their tails.

"Did your hand get broken?"

The person who spoke was Yi Zhonghai, and he returned He Daqing's words exactly as they had been said.

He Daqing was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. He carried his luggage and went back to the backyard without saying a word.

Yi Zhonghai was a little surprised. When had this old man He Daqing ever been so honest? Could it be that this guy was driven out by the White Widow?

The more Yi Zhonghai thought about it, the more he felt that he had guessed right, and he felt inexplicably relieved.

He was extremely unlucky now, but when he saw He Daqing who was also very unlucky, the depression in his heart naturally eased a little, and he felt a little disdainful.

He Daqing has been raising children for others for so many years, but in the end he got nothing.

This further strengthened Yi Zhonghai's determination to have a baby himself, but he never stopped using this folk remedy, and there was no visible effect, which made Yi Zhonghai a little depressed.

He did not suspect that Xu Damao had deceived him. After all, from that perspective, it showed that the folk remedy was indeed effective. As for why he was not cured, Yi Zhonghai could only think about his age.

Just like the doctor said, Xu Damao is only in his twenties, while he is fifty years old. Their recovery abilities are completely on two different levels. It is normal that the effectiveness of the folk remedy is discounted.

This made Yi Zhonghai a little annoyed. He had nothing to pursue now and didn't care about promotion. Even if he was demoted to level six, it didn't matter. Anyway, a level six fitter could earn more than 70 yuan a month, which was enough to support his family.

The biggest obsession in this life is to have a baby. This can't be called a mental illness, it's just an obsession, the kind that I won't rest in peace until I die.

Jia Zhang, who was walking around with little Sophora japonica in her arms, also saw He Daqing.

"He Daqing, what are you doing?"

"Move back home."

He Daqing replied casually.

"Were you driven out by the White Widow?"

Obviously, Jia Zhang's mouth always speaks faster than her brain, and she said it directly.

He Daqing really wanted to beat this old hag to death. Would you please speak up? Even if that was the truth, couldn't you be more tactful?

Yi Zhonghai on the other side laughed out loud. He hadn't laughed like that in a long time.

Jia Zhang was still asking with a curious look on her face.

"Really driven out?"

He Daqing glared at her and walked quickly to the backyard.

Jia Zhang in the back looks unhappy. What's your attitude? Can you tell me what's wrong?

If you have something unhappy, can't you just speak it out to make everyone happy?

You have no sense of humor, you deserve to be kicked out.
