Siheyuan: I am so good that I became a god of war

Chapter 22 This big yellow croaker... I really can't bear to part with it

"Big fool, I don't bother with people like you, but if you still annoy me, I will teach you a lesson. I'll talk about it when I get home." Xu Damao replied proudly:

"You..." Qin Zhou wanted to step forward angrily.

"Zhu Zi, don't pay any attention to Xu Damao. If you argue with someone like him, won't it make you look like you are on the same level as him?" Yi Zhonghai said as he supported the deaf old lady out of the door, "Pack up and get ready to go to the backyard."

The two of them came to the old lady's house in the backyard. After they sat down, the old lady immediately asked anxiously: "Zhong Hai, what do you think about this matter?"

"Actually, I don't object to this matter; but I just can't bear to part with this big yellow croaker." Yi Zhonghai said honestly.

"You, have you ever thought about it... Well, I'll take half of it!" said the deaf old lady gritting her teeth.

"Okay, but I don't know if the previous relationship is still strong." Yi Zhonghai sighed and said, "I have lost contact with them since 1952. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye."

"Let's try to contact them first. If that doesn't work, I'll find other ways. This child cannot be allowed to survive no matter what." The deaf old lady said gritting her teeth.

"Understood. I'll go to the grocery store and buy you a radio." Yi Zhonghai responded, "Someone will come to congratulate you on the New Year. We'll play some programs to add to the joyful atmosphere."

Yi Zhonghai knew in his heart that Ding Weidong not only put the deaf old lady in trouble and lost face, but also touched her bottom line.

Ding Weidong, Li Qingyu and Xiao Yuer went to the department store, only to find that the crowded crowd there was daunting and it was not easy to get in.

"Forget it, let's come back later." Ding Weidong said with a wry smile: "If I go in like this, I'm afraid even my shoes will be squeezed off."

"Yes, there are so many people. Let's go home and listen to the radio." Li Qingyu said: "Everywhere is probably crowded today, but it should be less crowded tomorrow."

The next day people started visiting relatives and friends, so there were fewer opportunities for shopping.

"You can also choose to just stroll along this street." Ding Weidong suggested: "Walk back leisurely."

They arrived here just now in a rickshaw.

The street was still quite lively as the three of them slowly made their way home. During this time, Xiao Yuer always held two strings of candied haws in her hands as her cheerful laughter echoed along the way.

"Hey, this trust store is also open." Ding Weidong's eyes sparkled: "Let's go take a look."

"Brother Dong, there's nothing to buy here..." Li Qingyu replied softly.

"I understand. It's not very convenient to wear this shiny thing in your hand. Let's go to the store and see if we can exchange it for other items." Ding Weidong said with a smile.

There were not many customers in the trust store, and Ding Weidong quickly found the counter selling watches.

The merchandise in this trust store is all second-hand products sold by others, but there is no need to purchase tickets, just cash.

In this small and exquisite display counter, Ding Weidong noticed a Patek Philippe watch that was about 80% new. It was obvious that this watch had been very cherished by its previous owner.

"Comrade, please come here." Ding Weidong called to a man in his forties who was chatting with others: "Please let me see this watch."

"This costs one hundred and fifty yuan, do you want it?" the man replied.

He has a lot of patience. After all, everyone works equally hard and no one is under the control of others.

"Comrade, come and take a look at my watch." Ding Weidong then took off the shiny watch in his hand and asked: "How much can your store sell it for?"

"This gold Rolex watch is of extraordinary value!" The middle-aged man expressed in amazement: "How did you get this rare treasure?"

"This is a commemorative item, a trophy I got when I was fighting the enemy," Ding Weidong said with a smile. "It's my identity document. I don't feel comfortable with such a shiny thing."

Then, Ding Weidong put his work certificate on the counter.

"You are a member of the police department, and you are also the deputy director... Awesome!" The middle-aged man's attitude suddenly became enthusiastic: "So, what do you need, Director Ding?"

Ding Weidong sold the watch to them and asked them what price they could give him. He then said he wanted to buy another one here. Ding Weidong said with a smile: "Please tell me the price of recycling it."

"Three hundred yuan!" the middle-aged man offered: "This watch is very high-end and almost brand new. I think it would be better for you to keep it."

"Three hundred? Then let's go through the formalities. I didn't expect it could be sold for so much." Ding Weidong said with a smile.

The documents were processed quickly. The middle-aged man produced a receipt and asked with a smile, "Chief Ding, which watch do you want? All the watches in the cabinet are excellent and have been maintained and tested."

Ding Weidong raised his eyebrows slightly: "I choose this Patek Philippe and this women's Plum watch. The total is 260 yuan, and there is 40 yuan left... Then I will choose this wall clock."

Ding Weidong carefully planned how to use the 300 yuan.

"Brother Dong, I don't want to buy that wall clock," Li Qingyu said hurriedly.

"But you have to go to work, this watch is still very useful," Ding Weidong said with a smile. Although Li Qingyu was reluctant to buy these things, he didn't want to argue with Ding Weidong.

After Ding Weidong tried on the Patek Philippe himself, he picked up the Plum Blossom women's watch and said to Li Qingyu, "Qingyu, stretch out your hand."

"This, this..." Li Qingyu seemed a little shy.

"Give it here, give it to me if it's not suitable for me!" Xiao Yuer was impatient.

"I'll give it to you, you're just being greedy," Li Qingyu glared at her, but still extended her smooth and slender hands.

Ding Weidong carefully helped Li Qingyu put on the 80% new Plum watch, leaving only the wall clock that looked relatively old.

"Let's go. Come, let me hold Xiaoyuer. Qingyu, help carry the clock." Ding Weidong picked up the pouting Xiaoyuer, "I'll help you play shuttlecock later."

"Great, great, I just love playing shuttlecock, brother!" Then, Xiao Yuer smiled brightly.

When we arrived at the courtyard at around ten o'clock, we saw Yan Bugui, Chen Dalin's family, and the Meng couple chatting, and standing around them were the front yard and three other families.

Ding Weidong put Xiaoyuer down, took the wall clock from Lin Qingyu, and asked her to open the door. Just as the door was opened, Xiaoyuer turned around and went into the room to look for toys.

Ding Weidong stood at the door of his house, staring intently at Yan Bugui arguing with the resident in front.

"Everyone, let's go to the back garden to wish our grandmother a happy new year." Yan Bugui said.

"Uncle, what are you talking about? You have been talking nonsense all along. We haven't even gone to wish our parents a happy new year, but now we have to celebrate the birthday of an old man we don't know at all?" Chen Dalin shook his head.

"I have to bow and thank them when I go there. And I only get a small red envelope of 2 cents in return? I will not go there this Spring Festival. I plan to take my family to my parents' house."

Meng Fangshan also said, "Yes, exactly the same. I used to be afraid of you three big guys. But now I think about it, what can you do to me? Why should I obey your command? If you play tricks again, I will immediately go to the community member association for help. Director Ding also lives here. I can't imagine that you still use those unpresentable tricks on such a glamorous day? I even have the urge to attack you directly."

"Damn it, stop talking nonsense. Don't you know how much benefit I have received from you?"

"If you keep going like this, I'll go talk to the principal of your school!"

Yan Bugui felt uneasy. He didn't expect that everyone seemed to have awakened. It would be difficult to take advantage of them in the future.

"Okay, okay, think it over carefully first." Yan Bugui said dissatisfiedly.

"Forget it. It's more important to respect your own mother. Why should you be nice to an unrelated neighbor? He doesn't take your kindness seriously at all and just treats you as a fool." Chen Dalin shook his head and sighed.

Everyone in the yard left, leaving only Yan Bugui who was still in **.

Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang were busy, pulling a cart to transport the snow from the courtyard to the public toilet outside.

"Why hasn't Yan Jiecheng finished his work yet? Come with me to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady." Yan Bugui said angrily, "No, we can clean up later."

"There is only one car left, why rush to pay New Year's greetings early or late?" Yan Jiefang responded impatiently.

Ding Weidong shook his head slightly and returned to the room. He walked towards his bedroom first and said silently in his heart: "System, can I receive the New Year gift package?"

The system gave a dull reply: "The gift pack has been opened. The owner will gain the ability to use telepathy to respond to physical influences. Do you want to integrate this ability now?"

Ding Weidong was very surprised and secretly said: "This is too mysterious, isn't it? We are in the real world, how can there be such a supernatural thing as telepathy affecting matter? Well, since such a magical system has appeared, it is logical to have such a strange power."

"What changes will the capability integration process bring? How long is it expected to be completed?" Ding Weidong asked.

"You will feel a headache that will last about ten minutes in total." said the mechanical voice.

Ding Weidong thought it was feasible and agreed immediately: "Okay, let's do the fusion process now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Weidong felt something inexplicable entering his mind. These things kept pouring into his mind, as if his head had turned into a balloon and was rapidly expanding.

Such pain was unbearable for Ding Weidong, he almost wanted to shout out, but at this moment he could not move any muscles in his body, let alone shout.

Ding Weidong felt that he had spent hundreds of years, and he also knew that the longer he persisted, the more he would gain; similar experiences have been described in many novels.

Ding Weidong tried hard not to pass out. Just when he was trying extremely hard to endure the long time that seemed like tens of millions of years and was about to forget who he was, the severe pain suddenly subsided like a tide.

Ding Weidong panted, and now his sense of time seemed to have returned to normal. It was not a thousand years, but only a mere ten seconds.

However, it was during these ten minutes, seemingly short but actually important, that Ding Weidong's life was completely changed. His visual clarity was now many times better than before, when it was like a frosted window in front of his eyes that was blurry. Now, the foggy window glass had been removed.

In addition, his memory is incredibly strong. He can remember the contents of all the books he has read since he traveled through the book world, even every punctuation mark, very accurately without missing a single one.

He even remembers every nuance of the characters in every movie he sees.

"Hey, this system has really powerful support." Ding Weidong whispered, "Let me check my personal information panel."

Then, a light screen unfolded in front of Ding Weidong. This was Ding Weidong's personal data panel:

“The holder, Ding Weidong, has a basic physical fitness value of 10 (the average human level is about 1).

"Energy output is equivalent to 2,000 kilograms (the average person's energy output is about 125 kilograms)"

"Mind strength 20 (the average person's mind strength is about 1)"

"Moving speed is 44 meters per second (normal people's speed is about 11 meters per second)"

Special Ability - Telepathy - Beginner

“Skills—Mastery of Bajiquan and divine attainments in medicine”

"Forging skill 4th level Bench work 5th level Cooking skill 4th level Fishing skill mastered"

"Proficient in carpentry skills, calligraphy and painting skills, and the use of abacus"

Ding Weidong whispered: "A new item has been added: mental strength and proficiency in abacus use."

"I don't use the abacus very often, so what's the point of it? Besides, with my strong mental strength, my mental arithmetic ability must be pretty good, right?"

"But this telepathy advancement is so useful!"

The mechanized voice of the system sounded: "If the host does not need the skill item, the system can recycle it!"

"Oh, what about the recycling price?" Ding Weidong asked hurriedly.

"The items obtained can only be used to improve skills or enhance telepathic abilities." The system answered directly.

Ding Weidong thought for a moment and asked, "How about improving telepathic ability by mastering the abacus?"

"The abacus alone cannot be upgraded to the intermediate level." The system answered without ambiguity.

After checking his profile, Ding Weidong was determined and asked, "What about the fourth level of cooking skills? I really can't bear to give up the other skills. Tell me about the effect of the initial telepathy."

"With the fourth-level cooking skill, you can upgrade your telepathy to the second level. This is only possible because of your strong mind." The system explained: "The range of the initial level is within ten meters, and you can manipulate objects equivalent to a small weight."

"At the intermediate level, within a range of twenty meters, you can control an object equivalent to two small weights. At a range of ten meters, it is even more powerful. You need to experience it more yourself."

"As for the second stage, you can use your mind to perceive a field of vision within a distance of 40 meters."

Ding Weidong nodded: "Then let's start the upgrade. I will think more about it later."

This time the upgrade process was quick and silent. The telepathy on the data panel changed from elementary to intermediate, and the original proficient use of abacus and fourth-level cooking skills were removed.

At this time, "Host Ding Weidong's physique is 10 (the normal person's physique value is about 1)

"Energy output is equivalent to 2,000 kilograms (the energy output of an ordinary person is about 125 kilograms)"

"Mental strength reaches 20 (the average person's mental strength is about 1)"

"The moving speed is 44 meters per second (the average running speed of an average person is about 11 meters per second)"

Special Ability - Telepathy - Intermediate

"Skills - Mastery of Bajiquan and familiarity with medical skills"
