Siheyuan: Superb comprehension? All skills are perfect

In fact, there were naval ships escorting the shipment along the way. Although the size of the ships was limited, it proved the importance the top leaders attached to these supplies.

After all, this batch of goods not only includes the materials needed by friendship stores and steel rolling mills, but also a batch of high-tech equipment specially selected by He Yuzhu for the country.

Although their quantity is not high and their types are not comprehensive, as long as they are used reasonably and combined with the existing advanced technologies in mining, metallurgy, chemical industry and other related fields in China, they can significantly promote the progress of various fields in China...

It's hard to say how effective and fast the results will be, but it's certainly better than nothing.

When the freighter safely entered Tianjin Port, they were greeted by more vehicles, including two groups of people from the steel rolling mill's exclusive team and a special fleet dispatched directly.

He Yuzhu still prepared some canned food for the workers, but he did not bring basic supplies such as rice, flour, oil, and sugar. After all, most of the transportation resources would have to be reserved for their Friendship Stores and higher-level needs.

He had brought a large amount of high-yield crop seeds, amounting to more than ten tons. These were all secured by the Luo family through Fulimi and Irina's stable fertilizer channels with foreign countries. Otherwise, the transportation of fertilizers alone might have taken up a lot of transportation capacity.

In fact, with He Yuzhu's ability, it would be no problem for him to transport huge amounts of supplies quietly across the country, but he knew that he could not take the risk. After all, there might be unknown spies in the country, and if an ordinary citizen suddenly transported such a large amount of items to the city center, the consequences would be unimaginable. If something went wrong... who knows what would happen?

Nevertheless, the supplies brought by the large freighters are already significant enough, and as soon as the ships drop anchor, the long-awaited troops will take over.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu and Zhou Jianjun went back directly in the prepared car, and they were no longer responsible for the subsequent tasks.

What satisfied him was that the car that picked up the people this time was not a bumpy jeep, but a real sedan, and it was even escorted by guards, which was very respectable.

After returning to Beijing, the two of them were asked to rest at home and not go to work. This made sense because this work, which had not yet been made public, certainly needed to be subject to review.

He Yuzhu was very happy about this. He started to enjoy the life of a stay-at-home in his own yard and was unwilling to go out at all.

His daily routine is to eat, drink, take his dog for a walk, or practice martial arts to kill time.

He originally thought that his superiors would call him back soon, but that did not happen.

During this period, only one director, Yang, came to visit, bringing generous rewards and advice to rest assured.

He Yuzhu doesn't care whether he really has free time. Since he doesn't have to worry about his work at the moment, his thoughts turn to the next unknown challenge.

So, on this day, He Yuzhu put on a neat suit and an old leather suitcase and stepped into the world of copies.

"Ding Ding Ding"

, the familiar bell sound rang clearly in his ears.

The sun in the sky is scorching, and the heat waves in the air reveal that it is summer.

The shadows of the trees on the roadside are sparse, and the sunlight shining through the sparse leaves looks lazy and tired.

Following the sound of bells, an ancient camel cart slowly approached from not far away. It might be a water cart or a coal cart. The melodious bell sounds came from the decorations around their necks.

He Yuzhu had no idea where he was or what time it was. When he was about to enter the city, a rickshaw quickly caught up with him.

"Sir, do you need a ride?"

A simple voice asked.

He looked back and saw a carriage driver.

"Take a ride."

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement, and the driver happily put down the car and wiped the seat with the towel on his shoulder: "Please take a seat."

Sitting in the car, "Hmm"

With a sound, He Yuzhu felt the vehicle started steadily. The driver controlled it in an orderly manner at a moderate speed, ensuring comfort without excessive fatigue.

Under the driver's steady control, he knew that he was facing an experienced transport expert.

This should not be underestimated. Without rich experience, it would be impossible to display such skills.

The driver asked, "Where are you going, sir?"

"First into the city."

He Yuzhu replied.

"understood."

The weather was so hot that even standing still would make you sweat profusely, let alone pulling a cart.

So He Yuzhu asked, "Where in the city is there anything fun to see?"

The driver, who maintained steady breathing and excellent physical strength as he hurried on, replied: “If sir wants to see juggling or Western illusions, magic tricks, sword swallowing and stone breaking, then go to the overpass.

But it’s still early and the weather is too hot, so the vendors haven’t set up their stalls yet; if you want to drink tea, chat, and have a good rest, I recommend you go to the Lao Yutai Teahouse, which is very famous.”

"Old Yutai?"

The name made some impression on him.

"Sir, this may be your first time in our Sijiu City, right?"

The driver then asked.

He Yuzhu smiled: "Although it's not the first time, I have never heard of 'Lao Yutai'."

He had vaguely felt that this city was familiar, and hearing the name made him more certain that it was in Sijiu City.

"This is a famous teahouse, but for people who don't drink tea often, they may not be very familiar with it."

The driver hurriedly added.

"Let's go to Lao Yutai."

He Yuzhu decided.

"Ok!"

The driver responded immediately and was very happy.

Don't expect any extra money for the ride to Lao Yu Tai, but there will be free cool water available.

Especially for customers who look well-known, the shopkeeper might give them some extra rewards.

Arriving in the city, the streets seemed much more bustling and lively than in the suburbs.

The old shops and houses lining both sides of the road are full of retro atmosphere, and the clothing and attire also reveal the style of that era.

Shouts echoed one after another: "Sugar cakes, sweet red dates! Fresh sugar cakes!"

" ** Bird's nest and plum soup, sweet-scented osmanthus honey! Cool and delicious, another bowl!"

"A razor sharpens a kitchen knife, and the knife is as sharp as the wind!"

He Yuzhu found it very interesting.

But he knew very well that for these vendors, hawking in such a hot summer was just to earn a few copper coins. It was by no means fun, nor was it a way of enjoying life. It was just a way to barely survive.

Not long after the car stopped, the driver saw the "Yutai Tea House"

The sign is eye-catching.

There is also a couplet hanging on both sides, the first line of which is "As abundant as the breeze and tasting the sweet dew"

, the second line is "Traveling the universe at ease"

.

It's really good.

"Here we are, sir."

The driver carefully put down the handlebars and symbolically gave them a push.

The reason why he didn't actually reach out his hand was, on the one hand, because the driver's skin was rough and thick, and on the other hand, he was sweating all over and didn't want to get the passengers dirty. After all, he couldn't afford to pay for the damaged clothes.

He Yuzhu smiled and got off the car, took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to the driver: "The car is comfortable, this is your fee.

No need to give me change, the extra money will be my reward."

"Thank you for your generous gift, sir."

After seeing the ocean, the driver took it respectfully with both hands, his inner joy was beyond words.

When he first met He Yuzhu, he realized that he was not short of money, but he was very happy to receive an unexpected surprise of a dollar this time.

You know, even when business is booming, it is extremely difficult to earn a dollar a day, and that doesn't include the cost.

"You deserve this."

He Yuzhu waved his hand nonchalantly and walked into the teahouse.

I have thought about letting him pull the cart for a long time, but He Yuzhu will never let himself be wronged.

Once you have a preliminary understanding of this copy world, there will definitely be cars and people to pick you up, so why would you still need to take a rickshaw?

"Go slowly, sir!"

The driver shouted, but did not leave. He found a shady place in front of the teahouse and settled down.

As He Yuzhu stepped over the threshold and was looking around the interior, the owner and shopkeeper Wang Lifa spotted this distinguished guest.

How could it not be? Naturally, only a few people can wear an exquisite suit.

Ever since Wang Lifa inherited the teahouse business opened by his father, he has been helping to serve customers in the teahouse since he was a child.

I have seen so many different kinds of people that I can roughly guess a guest's background with just one glance.

"Sir, you are here!"

"You look unfamiliar. This must be your first visit, right?"

"Indeed, this is my first time."

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement.

Although he knew in his heart that this was not his first teahouse experience, he had watched plays on stage before.

Wang Li smiled and greeted him at the door, cordially and politely inviting him in: "If you come for the first time, you are a rare guest. If you come again, you will be a regular customer."

Then he made a gesture of invitation.

You know, if it were a regular customer, Wang Lifa would have bowed to greet him.

"Please follow me, I will arrange an elegant seat for you."

It was He Yuzhu's attire, like a student who had just returned from studying abroad, that prevented the boss from adopting the old-fashioned way of entertaining guests, otherwise Wang Lifa would have bowed long ago.

"Just find a quiet spot."

He Yuzhu looked around the hall and stated his request, "As for tea, I want the best you have here."

"Yes, of course!"

Boss Wang was filled with joy, and he called out in his unique voice, "Bring me a cup of the best jasmine double smoked wine!"

This was his way of showing off his skills to his companions, and also to bring more glory to the store.

Just like in later generations, when you ordered a set of black plum wine, a girl would show it to you with a card, and there would be lights and music to accompany the order, aiming to make the guests feel respectable.

As Boss Wang called out, the customers in the restaurant turned their heads and looked over.

After seeing He Yuzhu's appearance, everyone knew that he was a rich kid who was generous but difficult to deal with.

Nowadays, anyone who has connections with foreign countries should not be touched easily. Anyone who provokes him will get into trouble.

Come to think of it, with the country's power declining, the former Manchu nobles have lost their backing and are left with nothing but power to bully the common people. A wealthy man like He Yuzhu, who obviously returned from overseas with his wealth, will naturally not be provoked.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly glamorous lives of the customers around him. In fact, many of them look glamorous on the outside but actually live a hard life.

In the chaos of war, people were inadequately clothed and well fed, and even basic meals were difficult to guarantee. Some people could barely afford to eat at home, and had to bring some leftover tea here every day to get by.

Some people may question: Why do they drink tea when they have nothing to eat? There are indeed such people who have developed the habit of drinking tea and cannot live without it even when they are hungry.
