Siheyuan: I just want to live

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it has arrived in the hot summer. It is now the end of July, the hottest time of the year, the temperature continues to rise, and the hot breath shrouds every corner.

Since Yi Zhonghai was reported by Chen Feng last time, Chen Feng's life has returned to normal and he has lived a stable life for several months. He is still responsible for purchasing food for the scrap yard.

In addition, he also had to regularly deliver 10,000 fat rabbits and 20,000 fresh eggs to Hou Debang. After completing these tasks, Chen Feng had more free time to enjoy his favorite activities.

Sometimes he would choose to go fishing leisurely by the river, or stroll in the city to feel the hustle and bustle of the city. This kind of free and unrestrained life made him feel extremely comfortable.

As time went by, an astonishing amount of money had accumulated in Chen Feng's space. As he watched the wealth continue to increase, Chen Feng began to feel anxious.

He was well aware of the course of history and knew that the country would introduce a new currency in 1966. What would happen to the large amount of old banknotes he held then?

Chen Feng clearly realized that it was obviously not feasible to deposit this old money into the bank. After all, this was not a transaction that an ordinary individual could easily complete.

The amount involved is too huge, and the money accumulated in Chen Feng's space may reach millions by then.

Even if we seek Hou Debang's help, it will be difficult to find an effective solution in the face of such a huge amount of funds.

Fortunately, Chen Feng soon found a clever way to spend the money. This unexpected discovery gave him hope for a solution.

One day, Chen Feng was bored and decided to go to the black market. He was walking aimlessly in the market when he suddenly noticed an old man setting up a stall in a corner.

When he got closer, he found that the old man was selling a jade pendant. Chen Feng observed it carefully and found that it was a mutton-fat jade pendant with a warm and delicate texture and a color as white as snow.

Chen Feng asked the old man about the price, and then bought the jade pendant without hesitation. Although the seller claimed that it was a jade pendant from the Ming Dynasty, Chen Feng had no way of judging its authenticity.

However, he did not care about the age issue, because he knew enough about jade to determine the authenticity of the jade pendant.

In the following period of time, Chen Feng began to look for items such as jade in the black market.

Whenever he sees jade, he no longer cares about the age, but focuses on the material of the jade. If he encounters jade of high quality and reasonable price, he will decisively buy it; if the price is too high, he will choose to give up.

Soon, in less than a month, the news of Chen Feng's lavish purchase of jade spread in the black market.

Therefore, Chen Feng would go to the black market every two days. After arriving at the black market, he would choose to find a place to sit in the middle and then quietly wait for someone to come and sell jade.

As a result, the more than one million that Chen Feng had earned from selling rabbit meat for more than a year was rapidly reduced, while the jade in his space had piled up in the yard, as magnificent as a small mountain.

In the final stage, Chen Feng not only purchased finished jade products, but even rough stones. However, he only collected those rough stones whose quality could be seen at a glance.

When it comes to things like jadeite rough stones, Chen Feng has his own clear purchasing criteria: he only accepts finished products that have been polished, and is not interested in rough stones that have not yet been opened and are full of uncertainty.

Although rough stones may bring opportunities to get rich overnight, the risks are also huge. Therefore, Chen Feng prefers a conservative and stable strategy, focusing on acquiring finished products that have been polished.

As time went by, Chen Feng's reputation gradually spread, and almost the entire city had heard the news - in the black market outside Dongzhimen, there was a person who specialized in purchasing jade articles and jadeite.

However, the black market is an illegal trading place after all, and the public security department has surrounded and cracked down on it many times. Every time he heard the news, Chen Feng always followed the crowd and fled the scene without hesitation.

Then he would find the right moment in the chaos and quietly slip into the space to avoid the spotlight. He would not come out of the space until dawn and set out on his journey home.

In this way, the money in Chen Feng's hands has always been maintained at around 200,000. Every month, as soon as new money comes in, Chen Feng goes to the black market to buy jade the next day.

Of course, Chen Feng would also buy some daily necessities tickets on the black market. Chen Feng mainly bought cloth tickets, cigarette tickets, sugar tickets, and snack and candy tickets.

Chen Feng has all the other grains, oils, meats and eggs in his space. When he wants to eat beef and mutton, he will take Jin Ling and the others to a restaurant.

Regarding Chen Feng's frequent overnight stays, I went from being worried in the beginning, to getting used to it, and finally completely adapting to it. As long as Chen Feng showed up the next day, it was fine.

Although Chen Feng himself lived a comfortable life, there was one thing that he could not understand: how could Jia Dongxu live so long?

Although the Jia family is having a very hard time now, when Chen Feng is at the black market, he often sees Jia Dongxu buying food there.

But Chen Feng just didn't understand. Didn't everyone say that Jia Dongxu died early? Chen Feng had been in this world for more than a year, and Jia Dongxu was still alive and well.

When others traveled through time, Jia Dongxu was either already dead, almost dead, or lying in bed half-dead.

How come he can survive so well here? This doesn't make sense!

Forget it, never mind Jia Dongxu, let him die or not! He will die sooner or later anyway, and when he dies, Chen Feng will find a chance to send Jia Zhang to jail, so that she won't be an eyesore under his nose.

That day, Chen Feng drove a cart of grain into the scrap yard. As soon as Chen Feng parked the cart at the door of the warehouse, Zhou Ping began to ask people to unload the cart and weigh it.

After Chen Feng parked the car, he looked at Zhou Ping and the others without going forward to help. Pulling the car alone was enough to exhaust Chen Feng, so how could he possibly help unload the car?

After Zhou Ping weighed the grain, he gave Chen Feng a note. Chen Feng could then go to Sun Xiaojuan to collect the money with the note.

After these few months, the scrap yard has also formed a process: Chen Feng purchases, Zhou Ping puts the goods into storage, and then Sun Xiaojuan pays.

It is no longer like before, where Li Guotao had to be present every time and Chen Feng could only get the money after hearing Li Guotao's words.

Chen Feng took the note handed over by Zhou Ping, then turned and entered the finance office.

After arriving at the finance office, Chen Feng handed the note from Zhou Pingkai to Sun Xiaojuan.

Sun Xiaojuan took the note, glanced at it, then put it away, took out a notebook, and began to write on it. After she finished writing, she pushed it over to Chen Feng for his signature.

Chen Feng took it and looked at it. Hmm, it has increased by two cents per catty compared to last month. Now it is 80 cents per catty. After Chen Feng looked at it, he signed his name on the list directly.

While Chen Feng was signing, Sun Xiaojuan took a stack of money from the cabinet and started counting it. After counting three times, she handed the money to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng took the money, put it directly into his backpack without even counting it, and then prepared to turn around and leave.

Sun Xiaojuan looked at Chen Feng who was about to leave, and she quickly said, "Hey, Chen Feng, are you just leaving like this?"

Chen Feng looked at Sun Xiaojuan who suddenly called him, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Sister Sun? Do you have anything else to say?"

Sun Xiaojuan rolled her eyes at Chen Feng, and then said, "Chen Feng, I find that you are getting busier and busier! I only see you once this month at the scrap yard. You haven't come to see me for several months!"

When Chen Feng heard what Sun Xiaojuan said, he immediately responded, "I'm busy! This month, I not only have to purchase food for the station, but also for you, Sister Sun, and my family also needs food."

"I'm running outside every day now. Besides, the weather is too hot now. When it cools down, I will definitely come to play with you!"

When Sun Xiaojuan heard what Chen Feng said, she thought about it and realized that it would be difficult to purchase so much food every month at this time. It was normal that Chen Feng didn't have time.

So Sun Xiaojuan stopped dwelling on this question and turned to Chen Feng and asked, "Chen Feng, have you and Jin Ling not consummated your marriage yet?"

Chen Feng didn't know why Sun Xiaojuan asked this question, so Chen Feng didn't answer immediately, but asked back, "Sister Sun, why are you asking this?

When Sun Xiaojuan heard Chen Feng's question, she said with some self-pity, "I'm just asking, to see when you will consummate your marriage, and I want to calculate when I, a yellow-faced woman, will be abandoned!"

When Chen Feng heard what Sun Xiaojuan said, he knew that she was jealous again, so he quickly said, "Sister Sun, look at what you said! Am I, Chen Feng, the kind of person who gets tired of the old and loves the new?"

"Sister Sun, don't worry. Unless you leave on your own, I will definitely treat you well from the beginning to the end!"

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore! I've already put the food I'm going to give you next month in the yard outside the city. You can pick it up when you have time. I still have to go shopping now, so I'll be leaving first!"

After Chen Feng said this, he rushed out of the finance office like a rabbit. He really couldn't stand a woman's jealousy and coquettishness.

Perhaps because he did not have much experience in getting along with women in his previous life, Chen Feng always felt at a loss when facing women in this life, especially when facing his own woman.

So, whenever he encountered this situation, the only thing he could do was to escape.

Before leaving the scrap station, Chen Feng said hello to Jin Ling and then quickly left the scrap station.

After finding a secluded dead end, he put the cart into the space, took out his bicycle, got on the bicycle, and rushed all the way to the yard outside the city.

Chen Feng just told Sun Xiaojuan that the food had been placed in the yard, but in fact it was not. He had to rush there as soon as possible to avoid trouble when Sun Xiaojuan could not find the food after getting off work.

(I asked for leave in the backstage yesterday. The reason was that I went to catch autumn cicadas last night and forgot the time, so I didn’t write. I didn’t have enough time, so I asked for leave.

I'm sure you won't mind. Um... I believe you won't mind! )
