Siheyuan: I became a truck driver

The cat was in a place where no one was around. Xiao Yun went into the space and carefully counted the money he had just received.

A carp costs one hundred and thirty yuan, and the noodles, peanuts, potatoes, sweet potatoes, millet, and eggs cost a total of four thousand nine hundred yuan!

Adding all together, that's a total of five thousand yuan. Xiao Yun's breathing became increasingly frantic. He couldn't even hold a handful of this money!

A household with a net worth of 10,000 yuan in the 1980s was equivalent to a deposit of one million yuan in later generations.

What does this mean to him?

Isn’t it more valuable than a million-dollar deposit?

Xiao Yun calmed down for a while before suppressing his impetuous heart.

He knew that even if he had money, he couldn't spend it too ostentatiously, lest he be labeled a capitalist.

Although you probably don't need to worry about this issue due to your identity, it's better to have less trouble than more.

Now that he had money, the first thought in Xiao Yun’s mind was how to spend it.

Buying a house or assets is not a good choice now.

As for daily life, you can consider buying some local specialties and putting them in the space so that you can eat them whenever you want.

At the same time, entertainment methods must also be considered.

Buy some bills and buy some watches, radios, sewing machines, wardrobes, dressing tables, bicycles and other items.

This is standard for marriage.

As a time traveler, Xiao Yun naturally wanted to have a grand wedding.

These cannot be missing.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun exited the space.

After wandering around the streets of Baocheng for a while, Xiao Yun bought some things needed for the New Year.

Two couplets, a few blessing characters, a few hanging firecrackers, and some cloth and cotton were used to make a new cotton-padded jacket.

At the same time, Xiao Yun also made a big purchase at the supply and marketing cooperative, buying seven or eight packs of several types of cigarettes he often smoked, including Peony, Daqianmen, and Hongmei.

This way, you don’t have to worry about buying cigarettes every day.

There was also liquor. He and Xiao Aiguo drank Xifeng Liquor the most, and he did not hesitate to buy it, buying ten boxes at once.

This scene was novel to many people who came to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things.

Xiao Yun had only one reason, which was to purchase for the factory. When others heard this, no one said anything more. After all, a factory had tens of thousands of people, so buying these few cigarettes and alcohol was nothing.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative and putting all these things into the space, Xiao Yun bought a lot of half-meter-high vegetable jars.

These things are very familiar to people in the north. They are indispensable containers for pickling pickles and sauerkraut in winter.

Of course, Xiao Yun didn't buy it to pickle sauerkraut, but to store lard. Ever since he slaughtered a pig and made oil last time, the lard has not had a proper place to store it. Now it can be put into a big jar, and when he wants to eat it, he just needs to scoop it out with a spoon.

Xiao Yun bought ten such large vats!

After everything was done, Xiao Yun returned to the guesthouse with peace of mind. Although he did not find a way to sell the furniture and high-end tickets, this purchase made him very happy.

In a room on the second floor of the guesthouse, Duan Jinsheng was playing poker with three other people, and bursts of shouting could be heard from time to time.

The stove in the room was roaring, and two potatoes were roasting on the stove lid.

Xiao Yun pushed the door open and no one reacted much. They were all concentrating on playing poker.

Xiao Yun observed for a while. They called this way of playing poker "Swap". The two people facing each other were from the same family, and the winner was the one who beat the other two.

However, this game got a new name "throwing eggs" in later generations.

It was not until the evening, when everyone felt hungry, that they put down the cards in their hands and prepared to eat.

Dinner was even simpler, and Xiao Yun once again witnessed the wisdom of the working people.

She Xingwang put away the playing cards, walked directly to the cabinet on the side, took out an iron basin, added water, and placed it on the stove.

Soon everyone took up their respective duties.

Duan Jinsheng opened the window directly and took out the mutton that had been frozen outside in front of Xiao Yun's shocked gaze.

Hou Feng and Li Ping also started preparing bowls, chopsticks and condiments.

In just a few minutes, the poor version of hot pot is ready.

The fire was burning brightly and the water in the iron basin soon began to boil. Star anise, dried chilies, lard and other ingredients were added to the water.

Everyone did not hesitate and started to eat various dishes.

Xiao Yun didn't say anything, feeling a little embarrassed, so he pushed the door open despite everyone's attempts to stop him, and took a few bottles of Xifeng wine from the space.

...

It lasted until midnight, and everyone was drunk, only Xiao Yun was still sober and standing aside.

He did drink a lot, but because his body had undergone spatial transformation, his metabolism was accelerated and he did not drink too much.

After cleaning up the 'battlefield' and refilling the stove with coal, Xiao Yun was able to wash up and go to bed with peace of mind.

The cold wind outside was rustling the glass, but there was a roaring fire in the house and I didn't feel the slightest bit of cold.

...

The next morning.

As there were no missions, everyone slept in. When they woke up, it was already ten o'clock.

After everyone woke up, they immediately started to get dressed and prepare for the return journey.

Duan Jinsheng was responsible for handling the reimbursement forms for the guesthouse, while the others started boiling water and checking the truck.

Because of the cold weather, the truck had been parked for another day, which meant that it was impossible to start the engine. We had to add hot water to the water tank and raise the temperature before trying again.

If it still won't start, you will need to place a brazier under the truck engine to raise the solidified oil inside the engine.

Fortunately, Xiao Yun and his party did not encounter such a situation.

Each truck was successfully ignited by hand crank start. During the warm-up period, everyone ate some lunch casually and filled the kettle with hot water.

Only then did we officially embark on the return journey.

Outside Baocheng, there was a field of wild grass. The further they went towards Sijiu City, the lower the temperature became. Snowflakes gradually appeared on the ground. The gradually dropping temperature in the carriage made several people feel uncomfortable, including Xiao Yun.

...

In the evening, a team drove into the steel mill and handed over their guns and bullets to the security department before entering the factory.

After completing the mission perfectly and parking the truck, what happened next had nothing to do with Xiao Yun.

Since Hou Feng and Duan Jinsheng are the only ones handling the orders, they only need to stay in the factory to complete the registration.

Xiao Yun didn't bother to be polite with them. He changed his clothes and left the truck workshop.

Xiao Yun did not leave the steel mill directly, but went to the factory leader's office.

As a time traveler, Xiao Yun clearly knows the importance of relationships. Now that he has returned from his mission, of course he has to maintain his relationships.

Arriving at the door of Li Huaide’s office, Xiao Yun knocked on the door.

"dong dong dong"

At this time, Li Huaide was ready to get off work, so he went forward and opened the door himself. When he saw that it was Xiao Yun, he narrowed his eyes and immediately smiled.

"Xiao Yun? You...are back from the mission?"

Xiao Yun nodded in response and followed him into the house. "Yes, Director. Didn't I just arrive at the factory? I came to see you specially."

Hearing this, Li Huaide laughed immediately.

Flattery may seem vulgar, but we have to admit that it is really useful sometimes.

When Xiao Yun saw Li Huaide, he laughed and turned around to bolt the door.

Li Huaide understood Xiao Yun's action and immediately felt happy. The last time Xiao Yun bolted the door, he gave him a big carp.

Now Xiao Yun has just returned from a mission and he has already bolted the door. There is no doubt that there must be something good here!
