Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

Renting a house went smoothly. After getting the keys to the east wing and the ear room in the front yard, Han Li also asked about the price of the two houses their family currently lived in, and it turned out to be only four million (four hundred yuan).

Dear Daniels, you heard it right, it's only four million. Two million for a room, it's very cost-effective, it's really a bargain.

The reason I say this is that the prices of these two rooms will be even higher in a year or two.

After Lao Han gets a permanent job, the four million will be just over a year's salary. Even if he has to borrow money, he will have to buy the two houses first.

In addition, Han Li also thought that perhaps the task of activating the system was to actually become a resident of Courtyard No. 95.

No matter what, buying a house will never be a bad thing.

Therefore, Han Li’s next goal became to raise four million to buy a house.

"A man cannot become rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot grow fat without night grass!"

Han Li sighed and wondered how he could make a large sum of money legally and reasonably?

After thinking about it, I couldn't come up with any good ideas except starting a business, so I had to give up and think about it again later.

However, this thought made Han Li realize an important problem. In this life, he only had a primary school diploma, and he didn't even dare to tutor his two younger brothers in their homework for fear of being exposed.

This is a typical case of being overly cautious when learning something, for fear of being asked: Didn't you only go to elementary school? How come you know all this?

In order to better integrate into this era, Han Li decided that it was necessary to create a personality that loves reading and learning.

Furthermore, my predecessor spent most of the two and a half years studying medicine following my master around and doing odd jobs. He was an honest person and a slow learner, and up to now he could only identify medicinal materials and treat simple illnesses such as headaches and fevers.

As the saying goes, it is always good to have many skills. In order to live a more comfortable life in this era, I must continue to devote myself to the study of medicine.

You have to know that Han Li in his previous life was the kind of person who knew everything but was not good at anything.

Having lived a life of hard work in his previous life, Han Li had thought about lying down and being a parasite in this life. Not only did his family background not allow it, but the overall environment also did not allow it.

In this era of poverty, scarcity of supplies, lack of medical care and medicine, Han Li really couldn't just stand by and watch;

He is the kind of person who 'his own life is not satisfactory, but he cannot bear the sufferings of the world'.

Now that I've come here, I always want to do something within my ability.

This is also the main reason why Han Li persuaded Lou Zhenhua to compile a medical practice manual.

In this era, the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about reading is Xinhua Bookstore, but it is not Han Li’s first choice, because he thinks of a good place that time travelers must visit, a scrap collection point.

As the saying goes, it is always fun to find bargains, and it is always fun to find bargains. Han Li began to fantasize about finding a few good things to keep as heirlooms.

By the way, see if you can find some medical books or prescriptions. If all else fails, you can buy a batch of books at a low price to create a persona of a learning lover.

Just when I was trying to find someone to inquire about the nearby scrap collection point, I heard a shout: "Buying junk! Wine bottles, soy sauce bottles, and various glass bottles that can be exchanged for money..."

It's really like someone will hand you a pillow whenever you feel sleepy.

Han Li walked up to the rag collector and after some chatting, he agreed with him that if he had any books or rare items, he would keep them for him.

This is not because Han Li is so eloquent, but because the price he offered is higher than the price the old man sent to the scrap collection point.

Before they parted, Han Li said, "Uncle, please give me a mention when you meet someone you work with in the same field. I'm sure you'll benefit from it."

Han Li had this idea when he saw the old man who collected scraps just now;

This kind of professional matter should be left to professionals. The rag collector walks around the streets all day long, looking for medical books and prescriptions, which is obviously more professional.

The scrap collection point is a three-story courtyard with a lot of miscellaneous items, but most of them are arranged according to major categories; for example, broken furniture is piled in the yard, and old books, newspapers and the like are all in the house.

Probably because everyone is generally poor these days, there are quite a lot of people coming to scrap collection points to barter for things. Many of them leave with a stack of newspapers, which apparently they bought to paste on the walls.

After a rough look around, Han Li didn't see any antique calligraphy or paintings, so he was a little disappointed and had to pick out some old books.

Time passed minute by minute, and when Han Li accidentally turned over a book, his eyes widened instantly, his face full of surprise, and he exclaimed that he had picked up a big bargain!

Jin Ping Mei!

Han Li couldn't help but feel secretly delighted. Fortunately, he looked through it carefully, otherwise this good thing would have been given to someone else.

It’s a pity that it’s not a color illustrated version, so it loses a lot of fun.

The next moment, seeing that the book cover of Jin Ping Mei was that of a romance novel, Han Li suddenly remembered an important thing: is this book still a banned book?

In which year was the ban on Jin Ping Mei lifted?

If the ban is not lifted, then in the eyes of the general public, this is Liu Bei's book, and people who read this kind of book are morally corrupt and will be despised by everyone.

Remember, Han Li has no portable space, so the risk is too great.

But on second thought, meeting is fate, so Han Li decided to take it home and hide it in a secluded place, so that he could use it to kill time when he was bored.

Then he continued to search among the pile of old books, but found no medical books or prescriptions, only some novels and travel notes.

When I returned to the yard carrying the old books, I didn't see a single person.

This is the advantage of living in an outer courtyard. When everyone in the courtyard goes to work or school, there won’t be many people left in the courtyard.

The families in the outer courtyard were notoriously poor, and they would usually find odd jobs to supplement their family income. They would not gather together like other women to gossip about other people.

As soon as I returned to the courtyard, I saw my sister Han Xiaoxiao running out of the house to greet me happily, and shouted happily: "Big Pot~ I missed you so much."

Han Li smiled and pinched his sister's nose, jokingly saying, "The big pot didn't bring any delicious food, do you still want the big pot?"

Han Xiaoxiao's dark eyes rolled around and she nodded heavily: "I want to."

Han Li laughed happily: "Go and play by yourself first, and I'll make something fun for you later."

"Okay."

After sending his cute and adorable sister away, Han Li found his mother Li Yumei and handed her the keys to the east wing and the ear room in the front yard.

"Mom, the east wing hasn't been occupied for a long time, and it smells musty. Open the doors and windows to ventilate it first, and then move in after two or three days."

He discussed the issue of renting a house with the old couple last night.

Originally, Han Shanhai and his wife thought that they would be gossiped about if they rented a house just after borrowing money from people in the hospital. However, Han Li simply said, "Good things come in pairs," and the two of them immediately changed their minds and expressed their agreement.

Not to mention, there really is not enough space for their family of six, and their eldest son is old enough to start a family, so they have to rent another house.

In addition, Han Shanhai is going to work at the steel rolling mill, which is a real double happiness for the Han family.

"Okay. I'll go over and open the door to ventilate the room and get rid of the musty smell." Li Yumei's face was full of smiles, because her family's life was visibly getting better.

Especially the head of the family should have started working at the steel rolling mill by now, otherwise he would have come back to report the news long ago.

When Li Yumei rushed to the east wing of the front yard, she was soon seen by the third aunt Yang Ruihua who lived opposite.

Yang Ruihua asked in surprise: "Mr. Han, did you rent out this east wing?"

Li Yumei nodded and said with a smile, "The children have grown up, and two rooms for six people are too crowded. It won't be long before my eldest son gets married and starts a family. This house in the front yard happens to be empty, so let's rent it first."

The run-down family from the outer courtyard suddenly became his neighbor, which made Yang Ruihua feel indescribably uncomfortable, but he was thinking in his heart whether he could take advantage of the opportunity.

Before long, everyone in the yard knew that the Han family was going to move into the front yard.

People have different attitudes towards this. Some are envious, some are jealous, and some are hateful.

But everyone in the courtyard understood one thing clearly: from then on, the Han family was no longer the soft persimmon that could be bullied by others.
