Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

There weren't many people selling things in the black market. There were at most 20 or 30 people on the east side. Most of them were farmers from the countryside who sold their food for money. After a while, Zhang Dabao didn't find anything he liked, not to mention meat, not even fine grains. A ticket seller came over to chat with him. Zhang Dabao asked about the price, but thought that he still had some tickets and didn't know the specific price, so he didn't make a deal. After rejecting the ticket seller, he just wanted to go to the other side when he found an acquaintance, Yan Bugui from the front yard.

Yan Bugui was bargaining quietly with the man selling sweet potatoes at this time. After a while, the two reached a consensus. Yan Bugui took money out of his pocket and bought half a bag of sweet potatoes.

He picked up the sweet potatoes and was about to leave, but Zhang Dabao walked over and patted him on the shoulder, which scared Yan Bugui so much that he almost dropped his pocket.

"Da Biao, are you here to buy things too? I'm scared to death," Yan Bugui asked in a low voice.

"I just arrived, are you leaving?" Zhang Dabao asked in a low voice.

"Yes, there is not enough food at home. I'm leaving first. Don't stay in this place for too long. It's not safe," Yan Bugui instructed Zhang Dabao.

"Go slowly, I'll take a look." After saying hello to Yan Bugui, Zhang Dabao went to the other side.

There is no food sold here, mostly old items. Zhang Dabao didn't know much about these things, but he thought a few books about Taoism were good, which looked familiar, so he spent two yuan to buy five books. After walking a few steps, he saw something that looked like a stove. Zhang Dabao had studied "Tian Yi Xin Fa" and according to the records in the book, this should be the upper part of an alchemy furnace, as there was no place for lighting the fire at the bottom.

"How much is the stove?" Zhang Dabao squatted down.

"Brother, this thing is from the Western Zhou Dynasty..." The man was interrupted by Zhang Dabao before he could finish his words.

"I don't care whether it's from the Western Zhou Dynasty or last week, I just want to know how much the stove costs?" Zhang Dabao asked again.

"Twenty. They're all copper. That's more than twenty pounds. If I sell the copper for ten dollars," the man explained.

"Pay the money right away on the 15th, not a penny more," Zhang Dabao said straightforwardly.

"Please take the money." The man agreed to the deal without further ado.

Zhang Dabao gave him fifteen yuan. As the item was heavy and difficult to carry, Zhang Dabao ended his trip and left the black market.

After coming out, Zhang Dabiao found a secluded place to store the stove inside the space, and he went deep into the forest. After walking thirty or forty meters, he felt someone following him from behind, and judging by the footsteps, it should be three people.

In order to further verify it, Zhang Dabao took a few quick steps, hid behind a big tree, put the stove and the book into the space, and took out a dagger from it.

As expected, three people came running from behind, including the ticket scalper. The three ran about 20 to 30 meters and stopped. "Second brother, that man might have discovered us and didn't come out of the woods. He must have hidden himself. Is he really rich?" a man asked another person next to him.

"Brother, he definitely has money. The fourth brother and I saw him taking out money. It was a huge stack of bills, all worth ten yuan. There must be at least two or three hundred yuan," the second brother replied.

"Two or three hundred yuan? It seems that he is either a newbie or his family is wealthy. Let's go back and look for it. If we can't find it, then forget it," the eldest brother said to his two brothers.

The three of them turned around and scattered in the woods, with the eldest in the middle, about ten meters away from his two brothers.

Zhang Dabao heard the conversation between the three people. It turned out that he had shown off his wealth. No wonder Yan Bugui reminded him to leave early. It seemed that these people were not only ticket scalpers, but also robbers.

You three want to rob me, so you can't blame me. Zhang Dabao jumped onto another tree, got down from the tree, and hid behind the tree that Lao Si had checked. He took a step forward, covered Lao Si's mouth with one hand, put his arm around his neck, and inserted the dagger in the other hand into Lao Si's waist. He twisted Lao Si's body hard and Lao Si stopped moving. Zhang Dabao put him on the tree, then jumped twice more, hid behind Lao Er, and used the same method to deal with Lao Er.

"Second brother, fourth brother" The eldest brother walked forward for a while and found that there was no voice of his two brothers. He felt that something was wrong, so he stopped.

The eldest brother called out a few times, but no one answered him.

"Second brother, fourth brother," the eldest brother was a little anxious, and his voice was getting louder and louder.

"Ah" The boss' heart suddenly hurt. He looked down and saw a dagger stuck in it. He felt his life slipping away. He covered his chest and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's me. Don't you want to rob my money? Come on." Zhang Dabao appeared in front of the boss.

When the boss saw the person coming, he was speechless and fell down unwillingly.

Zhang Dabao did not hesitate to start searching the boss. As expected, there were some valuable things on the boss, including a cloth bag with various bills and money in it. Zhang Dabao did not have time to count them and put them all in the space. He then searched the other two people. They also had a cloth bag with a lot of money and other things in it.

Zhang Dabao was immediately amused. He originally wanted to buy some good things, but you insisted on coming up to give away your lives, and brought so many good things with you. I'd rather cremate you.

Zhang Dabao dragged the three people to the other side of the woods and poured some gasoline on them in a small ditch. After setting them on fire, he took off his blood-stained clothes and shoes, poured gasoline on them, and threw them on the three bodies. Then he put on his clothes and shoes and ran away.

After returning to Yard 95, Zhang Dabao looked at the time. It was already : in the morning. He had to rest. With so many bills, he would have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow to see if there was anything he needed.

At dawn, Liu Haizhong in the backyard got up, walked out of the yard and came to the Hongxing Street Office. Because he came too early, the staff had not yet come to work, so he squatted at the door waiting.

At around 7:50 in the morning, Director Wang Xiuqin from the Street Office came. When Liu Haizhong saw her, he quickly stood up.

"Old Liu, what's wrong with your face?" Director Wang Xiuqin recognized Liu Haizhong and noticed that something was wrong with him.

"He was beaten by bad guys, Director Wang, something big happened," said Liu Haizhong.

"Big deal? What big deal happened? Let's talk in my office." Wang Xiuqin took Liu Haizhong into the street office and asked him to sit down on the chair in the office and talk carefully.

"Director Wang, there are spies in our hospital," Liu Haizhong said in a low voice.

"Old Liu, you can't talk nonsense about this matter. What evidence do you have? How did you find out?" Director Wang Xiuqin always felt that Liu Haizhong was not very reliable. What he said today was even more unreliable. She knew everyone in the No. 95 courtyard, and most of them had lived in the courtyard since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The two new young people were transferred here due to injuries, so their identities were more reliable.

"It was Zhang Dabao who just came to our hospital. He was the one who beat me," said Liu Haizhong.

"Zhang Dabao? If you say that you are a spy, I will believe you, but I won't believe if you say that Zhang Dabao is a spy? Do you know what Zhang Dabao does?" Director Wang Xiuqin was so angry that she laughed at Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong shook his head. He didn't expect Director Wang to react like this and not listen to him.
