Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan

Yi Zhonghai had just sneaked into the deaf old lady's house, and before he could open his mouth, he heard a question

"Xiao Yi, why did you take so long? Do you want to starve the old lady to death?"

I have to say that this deaf old lady is very skilled. She obviously knows everything, but she can still act like she knows nothing, and it is hard to doubt her expression.

Yi Zhonghai looked at this old guy and felt very disgusted. He thought to himself, if you were not still useful, I would have ignored you a long time ago. After a long time, you really think of yourself as an ancestor.

Yi Zhonghai is also a person with superb acting skills. Although he thought so in his heart, the expression on his face was still respectful, and his words were all spoken in a nice voice.

"Madam, I didn't get any meat. This guy is not simple. He knows a lot of our secrets. If I hadn't run fast, I might have been beaten by them."

Yi Zhonghai briefly told the deaf old lady what had just happened.

The deaf old lady also listened to Yi Zhonghai's story very carefully. Although she could hear what was happening outside, many things could not be judged by just listening.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be the idiom “Hearing is false, seeing is true”.

"Xiao Yi, according to what you said, this brat should know some of our secrets, but since he didn't choose to report us directly, it means that he doesn't want to completely break off relations with us, at least not now.

It seems that we have pushed him too hard during this period, which led him to expose these things. Now my identity as a martyr's relative has been exposed by him, and I can't do anything for a short time. In the future, everyone has to keep a low profile and try not to provoke him.

Through this incident, I can see that this guy just wants to live his life in peace and has no intention of becoming our enemy.

As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke him, he shouldn't embarrass us anymore. We'll slowly find something to hold against him, and then we'll take action to deal with him. Well, after making a fuss all night, you should go back and have an early meal and rest."

"Okay, old lady, then you should go to bed early."

On the other side, Jia Zhang waited at home for a long time. She also heard the quarrel in the backyard, but she didn't dare to offend Zhou Jin yet, so she resisted the urge to go to the backyard to watch the fun.

But what Jia Zhang didn't expect was that Qin Huairu went out for a long time and came back with an empty bowl.

"Qin Huairu, you are such a useless jinx. I asked you to go and ask for some meat, but you spent so much time there and came back with an empty bowl. Did you do something to let down our Jia family?"

Qin Huairu quickly dodged Jia Zhang's hand and quickly ran to the other side of the table, forming an opposition with Jia Zhang.

"Mom, even though I didn't get the meat, I learned something more important than meat."

Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu also stopped when they heard this and looked at Qin Huairu, asking her to continue.

Seeing that she would not be beaten, Qin Huairu told the Jia mother and son everything she had heard at Zhou Jin's house.

Jia Dongxu didn't react after hearing this. He had nothing in common with the deaf old lady. The deaf old lady looked down on him, and he didn't like the old lady either.

However, Jia Zhang burst into laughter after hearing this.

"Hahaha, this old man always relied on his age and status as a hero to beat me and chase me to beat him. Now that you are no longer a hero, you can only wait and see how I deal with you in the future."

Jia Zhang was happy, but Banggeng had no meat to eat, so he just lay on the ground and started rolling around. This finally made Jia Dongxu angry, so he untied the seven wolves and let Banggeng experience a complete childhood.

The same thing happened to other people in the hospital. After returning home, they told their families about the deaf old lady, and then the whole family began to curse the deaf old lady and curse her to die early.

However, there was someone in the courtyard who didn't know about the deaf old lady's situation. That person was Sha Zhu. Because he was injured, he went to sleep after eating the meal brought by the old lady.

Even if he didn't sleep, he didn't dare to go to Zhou Jin again. He was beaten twice in a row, and this time he even broke a bone. Sha Zhu finally realized that he was no match for Zhou Jin, so the person he least wanted to see now was Zhou Jin.

Although He Yushui knew the whole process of the incident, she also hated Sha Zhu for ignoring her for a few outsiders, and she was somewhat resentful in her heart. Moreover, He Yushui did not know that Sha Zhu did not come to the backyard at that time.

So He Yushui naturally wouldn't say much in front of Sha Zhu. As for other people, it was even more impossible. Sha Zhu's popularity in the Siheyuan was about the same as Xu Damao's.

There is no way. Xu Damao is a real villain. In addition, with the deliberate publicity of Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady, Xu Damao's reputation has long been ruined.

As for Sha Zhuchun, he had a big mouth and would talk nonsense to anyone he met, and he also liked to hit people. Over time, everyone naturally started to dislike him.

As the night deepened, the courtyard became quiet.

In the following month, apart from the occasional noise of Jia Zhang beating and scolding Qin Huairu, no other major incidents occurred in the Jia family, and no one came to bother Zhou Jin, so Zhou Jin finally lived a peaceful life.

During this month, Zhou Jin worked diligently and slacked off seriously. With the system around, he didn't worry about not being able to complete his tasks.

So whenever Zhou Jin had time, he would wander around the city, visit the pigeon market and the black market, stock up on food, and buy grain seeds, vegetable seeds, fruit seeds, and all kinds of medicinal seeds.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Jin's current system space was unable to store living things, Zhou Jin would have gone to buy piglets, lambs, cows and fish fry and prepared them in advance.

Strangely enough, Zhou Jin has recently felt that his system space will soon be upgraded to a planting space, and this feeling is becoming stronger and stronger.

After signing in for a month, the various supplies alone were enough for a person to live a good life for a year. Especially the first monthly sign-in since he traveled through time, which gave Zhou Jin a huge surprise.

Zhou Jin's previous feeling was that his dream had come true. This time, Zhou Jin directly received a system space upgrade card.

This made Zhou Jin so excited that he used it directly without even reading the precautions.

Yes, Zhou Jin believed in the system so much, and believed that the system would never be against him.

After the space upgrade card is used, the original storage space is upgraded to the current planting space. The time flow rate inside is ten times that of real time, and the area is also expanded to ten acres.

Moreover, the space is automatically planned as a two-acre lake, a four-acre farm, a three-acre pasture, and a one-acre warehouse.

Of course, the flow rate of this space is divided into two parts: the time-free flow rate in the warehouse, where everything remains the same as it was when it was put in.

The flow rate in the planting space outside is ten times faster. The crops that take three months to mature outside can be harvested in just nine days in the planting space.

After the space upgrade was completed, Zhou Jin immediately planted all the seeds he had stockpiled. However, because it was the end of the month and he needed to deal with work matters, he had not had time to get any living creatures such as chickens, ducks, and fish.

At work, Zhou Jin adjusted the purchasing task allocation system, which stimulated the enthusiasm of the buyers. This month, the purchasing area of ​​the three groups expanded to fifteen villages, and more than 80% of the people completed their purchasing tasks.

When Deputy Factory Director Li saw the report submitted by Liu Jun, he was so happy that he finally had a talented person. You know, it was a blessing if the previous purchasing team 3 could complete more than 50% of the task in a month.

Zhou Jin has only been here for a month, but he has already made adjustments to the task allocation and achieved 85% of the task load in the first month. He is truly a talent.

So Deputy Director Li asked his secretary to call Zhou Jin to his office. He first flattered Zhou Jin and praised him highly. Then he took out an envelope and handed it to Zhou Jin, saying that it was a personal reward for Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin had long known that Li Huaide was a very capable and resourceful man, and he also knew that he wanted to win him over.

Faced with Li Huaide's goodwill, Zhou Jin of course accepted it all and naturally boarded Li Huaide's big ship.

After all, Zhou Jin knew where the plot was going. Following Li Huaide, as long as she stayed true to herself during those ten years, she would be able to safely get through the darkest days.

Moreover, Li Huaide treats talents really well. You see, in the original drama, Sha Zhu was beaten up by Qin Huairu, but later he became the director and the head of the steel rolling mill, and he still sent Sha Zhu back to work in the cafeteria.

As for Director Yang, for Zhou Jin, he was naturally on the same side as the deaf old lady and was naturally his opponent. Besides, Director Yang was not a truly good person.

He set up a small canteen and cooked his own meals in the steel rolling mill. This is hedonism. He condoned Sha Zhu to take the canteen's lunch boxes home. After being reported, Director Yang tried to protect Sha Zhu many times. This is condoning others to steal state property and also bending the law for personal gain.

Of course, these are the conclusions Zhou Jin drew based on the original drama. As for whether any changes have taken place in the world now, Zhou Jin is not sure yet. After all, he does not have much contact with these two factory directors now.

When Zhou Jin returned to the office and opened the envelope, he saw 20 kilograms of food coupons, 10 kilograms of meat coupons, some sugar coupons and a watch coupon. Director Li was indeed generous, unlike Director Yang who only knew how to shout slogans and PUA.

After Zhou Jin assigned purchasing tasks to everyone again, he left the steel mill and prepared to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy watches.

In fact, Zhou Jin did have a watch ticket. When he left the army, the old leader prepared three turns and one ring for him, but he didn't think about it during this period of time and didn't know what he was busy with.

There is a wall clock at home that I can look at, but when I go out I can only stare at the sun, which is really inconvenient.

Zhou Jin soon arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative. During this period, Zhou Jin often came to the cooperative, and many salespeople were already familiar with Zhou Jin.

So Zhou Jin never met the kind of salesperson who looked down on him again. Zhou Jin came to the watch counter and, with the salesperson's introduction, quickly chose a Shanghai shockproof watch worth 120 yuan. Now that he has collected two watches out of three, it seems that it is time to find a wife.

There are also extra bicycle tickets and watch tickets, which I can give to my wife when the time comes.

Zhou Jin arranged all his work today and finally had some time to get some livestock cubs and fish fry. His pasture and lake had been empty for a long time.

Since it was still early today, Zhou Jin thought about going directly to the countryside to see if he could get what he wanted.

Zhou Jin rode his bicycle to the six villages he was in charge of. It took him a whole day, and he even had to make do with a can of food he got from the space for lunch.

Finally, he bought two very thin hens, three roosters, twenty eggs, and a piglet that was only ten days old. Zhou Jin was lucky because the pig farming family did not have much food to feed these piglets. They had sold most of them in the past few days, and only this one was left.

Zhou Jin happily left the village with his spoils. When passing by a forest, Zhou Jin stopped, looked around, and confirmed that there was no one around.

He put all the piglets, hens, roosters and eggs into the space, allocated living areas for them, fed them water and food, and built an incubator next to the chicken coop, putting all the eggs in it, hoping that some of the fertilized eggs would hatch into chicks.

I'll go to the black market again in the evening to see if I can buy some piglets, cattle and sheep. As for the fish, it's easy to get. I can just buy it from Yan Bugui without making any trouble for myself.

In fact, Zhou Jin didn't know how to fish very well, and he didn't have any fishing gear at home, so it would save time to ask Yan Bugui to buy some.

After taking care of these things, Zhou Jin rode his bike back to the courtyard. Yan Bugui lived up to his expectations and stood guard at the gate, his eyes fixed on the people passing by.

"Uncle, you're guarding the door again."

Yan Bugui was surprised to hear Zhou Jin greet him proactively, because since Zhou Jin came back, he basically just nodded to him and never gave him the opportunity to speak and take advantage of him.

"You are really bad at talking, I am here to protect the safety of the courtyard."

"Okay, okay, you can say whatever you want. I want to discuss a business deal with you this time. It depends on whether you are willing or not." Zhou Jin spoke when he saw that there was no one around.

Yan Bugui also looked around, then pulled Zhou Jin into his home.

"Xiao Zhou, tell me, what is the deal?"

"From now on, as long as the fish you catch are alive, no matter how big or small, I will pay you 10% more than the market price. How about that?"

"Xiao Zhouya, look at how hard I work to go fishing in Shichahai. It takes a lot of time, energy, and bait, and I have to bring it back from far away. It's all very costly. Do you want to add some more?"

"Uncle, I'm giving you this business because you have to support a large family on your own and your life is difficult. I've also given you a 10% discount. Don't be greedy. If you don't know what's good for you, I can find someone else." After saying that, Zhou Jin stood up and pretended to leave.

Yan Bugui hurriedly grabbed Zhou Jin and said, "Xiao Zhou, don't leave yet. I've accepted this."

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation. I will go home first."
