A breakfast shop near the Armored Corps compound.

Xu Dahai chatted with Zhao Yejun, and the latter readily agreed to help.

After hearing that Xu Dahai was willing to pay, Zhao Yejun laughed and waved his hand:

"It's nothing but money. If you really want to thank me, just help me find some more bear skins!"

It won't be long before winter comes, and your bearskin coat will come in handy then. "

"Okay, all I can say is try my best to look for it. If you really can't find it, there's nothing I can do."

"Just try your best to find it."

Zhao Yejun took a hard bite of the fried dough sticks and complained:

"That guy Chen Feng is really unreliable. I asked him to buy a bear skin for me, but he couldn't buy it for a while! I study his aphrodisiacs every day..."

……

the following few days.

Zhao Yejun helped Xu Dahai find three courtyard houses in Xicheng District, all of which had complete documents and could be transferred.

The smallest set costs 1 yuan.

The largest set only costs 4 yuan.

For the largest set, the owner of the courtyard originally asked for 6 yuan, but he was in a hurry to go abroad, and with Zhao Yejun helping to negotiate the price, no one offered a higher price than Xu Dahai.

So I finally sighed and sold it.

"Sold the courtyard house in Yanjing in 1986 and went to live abroad? There is a high probability that he will regret it in the future? His children will probably hate him.

You can obviously be a dashing rich second generation, but you may have to work for others honestly in the future. "

Xu Dahai's thoughts flashed through his mind.

But he didn't say much, just respect the fate of others.

Even if he didn't show up, if the other party wanted to sell the courtyard, there was a high probability that they would be able to find other buyers.

After living for two lifetimes, Xu Dahai has seen too much of the ups and downs of life, and is actually indifferent to it.

That night, Xu Dahai treated Zhao Yejun to a big meal, and they had a pleasant conversation.

Zhao Yejun is a typical big courtyard boy.

Unlike ordinary people who are cautious and unwilling to cause trouble casually, and are content with being rich, due to the influence of their origin and living environment, the big courtyard brother has a sense of self-confidence in his bones.

God is the boss, earth is the second boss, I am the third boss.

If you don't accept it, just do it!

This is not only true for young men, but also for many young women who come out of the compound. They take out a brick from their satchel and dare to slap it on someone's head, without even caring that it will cause blood to flow from the slap.

Xu Dahai felt that after they hurt someone, their elders could help to deal with the situation, and even the police did not arrest them. Over time, they became flamboyant and pampered.

What about ordinary people?

A penny makes me want to break it into eight-petaled flowers, and if I accidentally break a bowl, it feels like the sky is falling - and if you hurt someone, you have to pay for medical expenses. If you can't afford it, you will have to live cautiously as time goes by.

……

The moon appeared, the stars were dotted, and occasionally there was a twinkling airplane flying slowly high in the sky.

After dinner.

Zhao Yejun went home.

Xu Dahai's family of three took a walk towards the largest courtyard, which was only about 4 miles in total.

When I go hunting in the mountains, I often walk on two legs, so the distance is not that big.

So there is no need to take a taxi, just walk slowly while enjoying the scenery of Yanjing at night.

"Yanjing is different at night, it's so beautiful!"

My wife, Wang Xiuxiu, was excited about everything she saw. When she saw some buildings on the roadside, she couldn't wait to stop and study them for a long time.

Xu Dahai also smiled: "It is the capital after all, it is much more prosperous."

"There are so many foreigners? Their hair is so yellow. There are so many foreigners."

There are groups of foreigners on the street, and some of them can even speak a few words of half-baked Chinese with weird intonations.

Xu Dahai explained with a smile:

"There are many foreign embassies in Yanjing, and the number of foreigners who come to visit is really quite large... Let's go, we are tired after a day, go back and rest early, and we can go shopping tomorrow."

"Well, we have been staying in Yanjing for several days. When are we going back?"

"What's wrong? Are you homesick?"

Wang Xiuxiu shook her head quickly and said that she was just a little worried about the dog, the fat cat at home, and the chickens, ducks and geese in the back garden.

But after returning to the courtyard, the young couple discussed it.

They decided to stay a little longer.

The first is: Xu Dahai has a huge appetite. He wants to buy more courtyard houses. It is useless to keep too much cash in his hand.

The second is: Wang Xiuxiu and her daughter finally came to Yanjing, and Xiao Tingzi was also on vacation. It would be a big loss if she didn't play for a few more days.

Slept one night in the courtyard.

The next morning.

When Xu Dahai woke up, he found that Wang Xiuxiu had gotten up early and had already made the egg pancakes.

"Get up and eat...I originally wanted to make some millet porridge, but there is no millet. Why don't you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some millet later?"

"Without national food stamps, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy them."

Xu Dahai sat up and said while putting on his clothes:

"It's okay. I'll go find Zhao Yejun later and see if he knows the vendor who sells food stamps. I'll just buy some food stamps."

After dinner.

When he found Zhao Yejun again, before he could speak, the latter told him something.

"Xiaohai, something happened.

I received the news this morning that I am going to the Special Administrative Region.

I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you to find another courtyard house. "

Zhao Yejun had an apology on his face.

"It's okay. Since you have something important to do, I'll naturally continue your work first.

Just leave now? "Xu Dahai also expressed his understanding.

His relationship with Zhao Yejun was not very deep.

He was actually grateful that the other party could help him buy three courtyard houses.

"I'll leave later, um... let's just wait a while and I'll find someone for you!"

Zhao Yejun turned around and left, but instead of entering the Railway Corps compound, he went to the Air Force compound.

The Railway Corps compound is located at the westernmost end of the south side of Fuxing Road. Compared with the compounds of other military services, its area is quite small.

However, the general building, office building, family building, public canteen, service club, family factory, auditorium, lighted basketball court, large and small swimming pools... and other facilities are also quite complete.

It is simply a small society.

There are guards standing guard at the entrance of the compound. If ordinary people want to enter, they have to fill out forms and go through procedures.

The Air Force has a "foreign style". The Air Force compound covers a larger area, has a more beautiful environment and is cleaner.

Xu Dahai just finished the formalities lazily and waited at the door.

By the way, you can also enjoy the cornfields, wasteland and a section of abandoned railway not far away.

Having said that, the surrounding area is indeed a bit desolate.

This was not only true of Yanjing, but in fact all the big cities in China in this era were far less prosperous than those of later generations.

soon.

Zhao Yejun and a young man strode out, laughing and chatting.

"Ye Jun'er! Don't come to our Air Force compound anymore, you guy. The jujube trees in our compound are almost going to be bald by you!"

"Looking at how stingy you are, eating a few dates is nothing."

Zhao Yejun brought the young man to Xu Dahai and introduced with a smile:

"The guy next to me is Yang Junhua. If anything happens, just ask him."
