What if I haven't seen Siheyuan?

......

Spring goes and autumn comes, time flies by like a white horse, always passing by inadvertently.

In the blink of an eye.

Since the last in-depth conversation between Yan Xiaoyao and Lou Bancheng, the wheel of time has quietly passed a year.

However, in this fleeting year, many interesting things have happened.

among them.

After that conversation with Yan Xiaoyao, Lou Bancheng was not only amazed by his extraordinary abilities, but also finally made up his mind to leave Beijing and go to Hong Kong with Yan Xiaoyao.

In the past year, Lou Bancheng not only took Yan Xiaoyao to several very hidden treasure troves, but also took away all kinds of rare treasures accumulated by several generations of the Lou family.

Lou Bancheng was also a very decisive person. After that conversation, he decided to follow Yan Xiaoyao and leave Sijiu City.

I also thought to myself: since this wind will not only get stronger in the future, but also last for such a long time.

If this continues, even if the storm has completely subsided, I will not be able to return to my hometown due to my advanced age, and will have to die in a foreign land.

So I made up my mind and thought that since I had to leave, I might as well leave cleanly.

So, in the past year.

Lou Bancheng gritted his teeth, suppressed his heartache, and sold out all the family fortune that had been accumulated with great difficulty by generations of the Lou family, all at low prices.

Things that could not be handled, such as shares in factories and enterprises and mineral resources, were all donated to the country.

After all, if he doesn't deal with all these real estates now, once the higher-ups find out that he has run away with his family, not only will all of them be confiscated, but they may even issue a warrant for his arrest.

In this case, it might as well be used as a favor to win some favor from the higher-ups.

really.

The subsequent development of the matter was pretty much what Lou Bancheng had expected.

Ever since Lou Bancheng donated all those properties, the bigwigs above not only met him in person and praised him lavishly, but also publicized the news in newspapers for a long time.

Even travel that was previously restricted has been relaxed.

And the other side.

Yan Xiaoyao has also gained a lot in the past year.

When Yan Xiaoyao followed Lou Bancheng to those hidden treasure troves and obtained the accumulation of several generations of the Lou family, he was stunned on the spot.

Until several days later.

Whenever Yan Xiaoyao couldn't help but look at the mountains of gold, silver, jewelry and various rare treasures in the storage ring, he was still filled with emotion.

I couldn't help sighing: "Alas...it turns out that poverty limits my imagination!"

When reading those history books in the past, Yan Xiaoyao always looked down on those emperors. As the ruler of a country with a large army under his command, why were they always restrained by those so-called aristocratic families?

If there is really no agreement, can't we just use the barrel of a gun to establish power? Is there any need to worry so much?

It was not until now that Yan Xiaoyao could understand why the emperors in the past had so many concerns.

This was the accumulation of several generations of the Lou family, and they were able to preserve so much wealth even in this turbulent period.

Can be imagined.

In the feudal society of the past, how much wealth would those aristocratic families who had been operating for thousands of years have accumulated?

Moreover, those aristocratic families have been intermarrying for generations, and one move could affect the entire body. It is no wonder that the emperor at that time had a headache about this.

but.

After receiving the Lou family's accumulation, Yan Xiaoyao said hello to Lou Bancheng and immediately went to find Hou Polan, asking him to find two more helpers and let him go and collect antiques and other old items.

What is ridiculous is that

In this age when even food and clothing are a problem, antiques are not only very cheap, but also have no market and few people are interested in them.

But after Yan Xiaoyao's efforts, the price of antiques in the old city rose several levels within a year, and became a hot commodity.

Among them, there are a small number of very smart ones.

Although I was very confused as to why some people would collect these antiques that few people usually care about, I immediately discovered the business opportunity when I saw the momentum was so strong.

I was still thinking that the kids from the rich families had heard some rumors from their parents, so they were making such large-scale acquisitions.

They followed suit and started hoarding stocks, planning to sell them off and cash in when the price goes up a little more, so they can get a share of the profits.

Unfortunately.

As the saying goes, man proposes, God proposes.

The prices of these antiques were purely hyped up by the outrageous actions of Yan Xiaoyao, the time traveler.

last week.

Yan Xiaoyao had already explained everything to him when he went to the Polan Hou family at night to pick up the last batch of antiques.

He said that now that he had collected enough things, he could stop and no longer need to collect antiques for himself.

Moreover, thinking about the diligent and responsible performance of Marquis Paola over the past year.

Yan Xiaoyao also spoke very vaguely about the current situation and gave some advice to Marquis Polan.

Given his family background, it was really not suitable for him to continue staying in the old city, and he was advised to leave as soon as possible and find a remote place with inconvenient transportation and poor information to live out his retirement in peace.

Before leaving.

Yan Xiaoyao, still thinking of their acquaintance and the hard work of the Broken Marquis in helping him collect antiques, specially left him a stack of big black coins.

I believe that as long as Hou doesn't spend this money recklessly, it will be enough for him to support himself in his old age.

And here is the courtyard.

A lot has happened in the past year.

The former uncle, Comrade Yi Zhonghai, the moral master.

After his injuries stabilized, he saw that Sha Zhu had not only become a eunuch, but also had no successor like him.

What’s more serious is that Sha Zhu’s brain had been seriously injured by Liu Haizhong, leaving him with some sequelae.

What's more, Boss Niu and his group were originally aiming to kill Sha Zhu, so they didn't hold back at all.

As a result, when Shazhu woke up in the hospital.

Yi Zhonghai discovered that not only had he become a eunuch, but his brain had also become less functional and he even began to drool when he spoke.

Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai became anxious.

He couldn't help but complain that he had gone through so much trouble to finally find three candidates for his retirement.

As a result, the first target, his disciple Jia Dongxu, was sent away because of his bad record and was a hopeless case.

The second choice target, Bang Geng, has not been heard from since he stole Jia Zhang's money and ran away.

You can’t see people when you are alive, and you can’t see corpses when you are dead.

What is even more unexpected is that even Sha Zhu, the last candidate for elderly care, has not only become a disabled person, but has also become a real fool.

So, when the doctor said that Sha Zhu could be discharged from the hospital, Yi Zhonghai immediately took him back without saying a word, because he really didn't want to continue wasting money on Sha Zhu.

On the night when he took Sha Zhu back home, Yi Zhonghai sat in the house and smoked the whole night.

I thought, since several candidates for retirement support have either died or become disabled, there is no hope for them in the future.

So he decided to save more money while he was still able to work, so that even if no one took care of him in his old age, he would not starve to death.

Then, early the next morning.

After Yi Zhonghai tidied himself up, he rushed to Director Yang's office with bloodshot eyes and begged bitterly, saying that he wanted to go back to the workshop to work.

However, considering the appearance of Yi Zhonghai, the one-armed hero, even if he really returned to the workshop, he probably wouldn't be able to do anything except standing there as a decoration.

After thinking for a long time, Director Yang assigned Yi Zhonghai to the Logistics Department and the Health Department to clean toilets.

After hearing Director Yang's arrangement, Yi Zhonghai was extremely reluctant, but given his current condition, he had nowhere else to go even if he left the steel mill, so he had to agree with tears in his eyes.
