I have a two world clock

Chapter 1 I can travel between two worlds
"My lord, according to your order, the yard has been tidied up, and the furniture in the house has also been arranged."

In the courtyard, a middle-aged man came to Li Mu, bent down and lowered his head, with a respectful expression: "Do you see any dissatisfaction? If there is, I will let them adjust it now."

Li Mu took out a few pieces of silver from his bosom, and handed it to the middle-aged man: "It's pretty good, Lao Zhang, thank you for your hard work this time, this is furniture money."

Lao Zhang took the broken silver, hesitantly said: "My lord, it won't take so much..."

"The extra is considered a reward for you. As long as things are done beautifully, I won't treat you badly in the future."

Li Mu waved his hand: "Okay, you guys go!"

Old Zhang was overjoyed, his old face bloomed like a blooming chrysanthemum: "Oh, how can this be done? How can this be done?"

He said "how to make it", but held the money firmly in the palm of his hand, thanked Li Mu a thousand times, and went away with a smile.

After a group of people in the courtyard left, Li Mu stepped into the living room.

I saw four banners hanging in the middle of the hall, under the banners there was a case, and on both sides of the case were huanghuali grand master chairs. The whole room was paved with blue bricks, and the walls were plastered with white plaster. There were some calligraphy and paintings on the walls, although they were not considered luxurious. , but it can also be regarded as an upper-middle-up family.

Li Mu sat on the teacher's chair for a while, and let out a long breath: "This yard is finally done!"

It has been a while since he came to this world.

Ever since I bought a small bronze clock in the antique market, I came to this world inexplicably. I was quite panicked at first, but then I found out that I could return to the modern world after staying here for a while, so I felt relieved.

So began the exploration of this world.

This is a dynasty called the Great Yin. It is said that it has been established for more than 600 years. Its style of writing is very prosperous. It seems to be a bit similar to the Ming Dynasty.

The entire dynasty did not strictly control the clothing of the people.

The evolution of the characters of the Great Yin Dynasty and the ancient Chinese characters is roughly the same. Traditional Chinese characters are used. Occasionally, there are differences in some individual fonts, but even if there are differences, the meaning of these characters can be roughly guessed.

It took Li Mu almost two months to roughly understand the basic situation of this world.

It wasn't until the last few days that I brought some silver from the modern world and bought a house in this county.

The place where he is now is called Qinghe County, which is a small county under the jurisdiction of Zhongyun Prefecture, the nineteenth prefecture of the Great Yin Dynasty. Although it is not considered a remote village, it is not considered prosperous and prosperous either.

Originally, he was still worried about his household registration, but it happened that there was a major epidemic in the nearby county town, many people died, and many people fled here. It was reasonable for Li Mu to sneak into the county town at this time.

As for the attire of short hair, he bought several sets of ancient clothes and hats in the modern world, and wore a scarf to cover his short hair. After that, he was not much different from the people here.

As for the accent... I've read all the articles on the Internet, so I still care about these details?

So Li Mu quickly integrated into this world.

He spent 23 taels of silver to buy this courtyard house with two entrances.

There is a courtyard in the front and a small garden in the back. There are two wing rooms in the east and west.
The entire yard was bought for a total of 23 taels of silver.

Modern silver is equivalent to RMB three yuan and fifty-one grams, and one kilogram is two catties. His 23 taels of silver is only four to five thousand yuan.

5000 yuan, in modern society, is the monthly salary of ordinary people, but in this world, it is possible to buy such a large house.

After tidying up the house, he bought tables, chairs and benches, and a big Babu bed.

Other furniture didn't cost much, but this Babu bed cost him 110 taels of silver.

Just this one bed is enough to buy three or four houses like his.

"This bed is still exciting!"

Li Mu stayed in the living room for a while, then walked into the bedroom, lying on the bed of golden nanmu wood like a small house, looking at the carved top of the bed, he sighed very satisfied: "Relax!"

Li Mu is very fond of Ming and Qing furniture, especially Babu beds from Ming Dynasty, but this Babu bed is a precious item in Ming Dynasty, and it is even more expensive in modern times.

In modern society, even if ordinary mahogany is used by a carpenter to make an antique babu bed with mortise and tenon structure, it will cost at least 80 million yuan, and the manual cost alone will cost more than [-] yuan.

Although his family was well off, he was not rich enough to spend so much money on a bed.

Now in the Great Yin Dynasty, he only spent a few thousand yuan to buy a house, and bought such a golden nanmu babu bed, and he felt satisfied: "Now I just need to buy a few maids. with the servant."

His greatest hobbies in life are martial arts and drinking.

He has been practicing martial arts for many years in modern society, and he has done well. He once singled out five students in a sports school, and ran away with bloody faces from the opponent. He is really not afraid of street violence. who.

After coming to the Great Yin Dynasty, I was even more surprised to find that the qigong I learned before can really be practiced in this world, and in just one day, I felt a sense of qi. Now more than a month has passed, and my meridians The inner energy is full, and the physical strength has increased by at least three to five times. Two hundred catties can be lifted above the head with one hand.

It is estimated that after a while, it may really reach the martial arts realm of those knights in martial arts novels.

As for drinking, although Qinghe County also has high-grade liquor, but the taste is very ordinary, and it still hurts after drinking it. When I wake up the next day, I have a splitting headache, and my eyes can be covered with eye mucus.

The taste of low-alcohol wine is not very good. It is said that there are good wines sold from other places in Yunzhou Prefecture, but Qinghe County does not sell them. It is still unknown what the taste is like.

Apart from practicing martial arts and drinking, Li Mu's greatest dream is to lead seven or eight healthy servants, walking on the street at dusk, admiring women from good families...

This ideal has no chance to be realized in modern society, but it is still somewhat possible to realize it in the Great Yin Dynasty.

After lying on the bed for a while, the sky slowly darkened, and a full moon appeared in the eastern sky.

Li Mu stood up and took a cloth bag from the bedroom in his hands.

At this moment, in the depths of his mind, there was a small blue clock slowly spinning, making a slight buzzing sound.

The reason why Li Mu was able to travel to the world of the Great Yin Dynasty was because of this little bronze clock. In modern society, this little clock can travel to the world of the Great Yin Dynasty at any time. , but it must be done when the moon is full.

Although Li Mu doesn't understand what's going on, as long as he understands the law, he can make use of it. As for why this happens, it's not something he can consider at this stage.

The moon is full today, and it's time to go back.

With a thought, his figure had disappeared in place.

The next moment, Li Mu appeared in his modern bedroom.

In a blink of an eye, from history to reality.

This kind of time-space transformation has made Li Mu a little uncomfortable until now, and he always feels that he is dreaming.

After staying in the bedroom for a while, Li Mu opened the cloth bag in his hand, and took out a few fist-sized stones, which were the rough emerald stones with the window opened.

Qinghe County in the Great Yin Dynasty did not have any special products, but only produced a kind of fake jade. This kind of fake jade was gorgeous in color and gaudy, without the warmth of suet jade and the purity of gemstones, so it was not very popular.

The upper-class people don't like this fake jade, so the price is not high.

Even ordinary people with flat hair, children with long hair, will get some fake jade to wear on their bodies.

Li Mu has a classmate who works in Kaiyinlou and has a strong ability to appreciate jewelry. He once had a relationship with that female classmate for a period of time, and learned some little knowledge about jade appraisal from her.

So after seeing the fake jade worn by these ordinary people, I was shocked on the spot!

What kind of fake jade is that? This is obviously jadeite, okay?

But it’s true to think about it carefully. Jadeite was not worth much in ancient China. It was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that it was hyped.

But at that time, it was not very valuable. It was not until after the re-opening, in the 90s, that the price of jade really soared, and after [-], it rose again.

But now in the Great Yin Dynasty, jadeite can only be regarded as the lowest-grade jade, and the price is extremely low, which is the same price as miscellaneous jade.

After Li Mu found out where these jadeites were produced, he went to the quarry to buy a few rough jadeites with windows.

These rough jadeites are not big in size, but the water head is excellent, and there are many treasures among them. This time when I return to the modern society, I want to find someone to see the value of these jadeites.

Put these jade stones in the bedroom, pick up the mobile phone on the bedside table, look at the time, and find that from entering the world of the Great Yin Dynasty to returning to the modern age, only a few ten minutes have passed, but in the Great Yin Dynasty it has passed Almost a month.

The speed of time flow in the two worlds is astonishingly different.

When I checked the time, I realized that there were several missed calls on the phone, and the caller was his mother, Yuan Qinghua.

Li Mu hurriedly called back: "Hey, Mom, did you call me?"

Yuan Qinghua's voice sounded from the phone: "Xiao Mu, you will go home during the May Day holiday. I told the girl that you must come back and see me! Don't take it seriously!"

After Li Mu graduated with a master's degree, he was already 25 years old. After working for three years, he is now 28 years old. At his current age, he is considered a very young group of people with a master's degree.

In big cities, single youths of this age are everywhere.

But in his hometown in the countryside, many young people are already married in their twenties. If they are not married after the age of 25, their parents will be anxious.

Girls are fine. Before the age of 30, they don’t have to worry about getting married, but once boys pass 26, they will face extremely harsh situations. Not only their parents are urging them to marry, but even their seven aunts, eight aunts, and eight relatives who can’t get along. They will urge you to get married and start a family.

The older you get, the less popular you are in the marriage market.

Of course, except for the rich and powerful.

In Taocheng, Li Mu’s hometown, the bride price has soared to 30 yuan, the meeting gift is 10 yuan, the engagement gift is 10 yuan, and the marriage cost is another 10 yuan.

If you don't have a house or a car, the matchmaker won't bother to help you.

After graduating from university, Li Mu seldom went back home. He hated the marriage customs at home, and never thought of marrying a woman from his hometown.

But he has not been able to bring a girlfriend home so far, so his parents are naturally anxious, so every year during the three major holidays of May [-]st, [-]th, and Spring Festival, his parents would urge him to go home for a blind date.

Now that May [-]st is approaching, Yuan Qinghua started calling Li Mu as expected.

"Hey, I can travel between the two realms now, and I see a bright future ahead."

After Li Mu hung up the phone, he looked helpless: "In modern society, even if you can travel between the two worlds, you can't escape the realistic pressure of your parents urging you to marry..."
