Looking at the high gate, Liu Lang touched his pocket which was cleaner than his face. He couldn't help but look at the moat in front of Yongding Gate. With so many predecessors who traveled through time, he wondered if the treasures left under the moat had been cleaned up by the big guys.
Hehe, if you are not greedy, just fish along the sides of the moat at Yongding Gate. If you are not greedy, it is enough for you to settle down in this city.
Liu Ping'an did what he said and fished along the moat for a while. As expected, he harvested a lot of gold bars and Yuan Datou coins.
Tomato is honest and never lied to me. The fan fiction about the courtyard house before the time travel was not read in vain.
Then he walked towards the city without caring about his relatives.
After a careful inventory of the harvest, there were 6 large yellow croakers, each weighing 312.5 liang, which is 36 grams. There were more small yellow croakers, 213 in total, and their total value exceeded that of the large yellow croakers. There were even more Yuan Datou coins, which filled the space. After careful counting, there were in total.
Liu Ping'an was still very cautious. He only walked along one side for more than ten miles and gained so much. If he walked along the other side, the harvest would not be worse than this side.
But it requires mental strength to plow the land, and I can’t hold it in any longer.
I thought to myself that I am a man with a system, how can I be greedy for these worldly yellow and white things. (If I have this ability in real life, please call me Heshen).
Liu Ping'an then walked towards the inner city, found a People's Bank, took out a large yellow croaker and some Yuan Datou banknotes and exchanged them for more than 2500 yuan. After leaving the bank, he called a rickshaw and asked where the clothes were made well. (At that time, the price of gold was 1 gram = 8 yuan, but I didn't know about silver)
I had no relatives in this huge city and knew nothing. Even in my previous life, I had only seen Beijing on an electronic map.
I had no choice but to ask the locals. At that time, the rickshaw drivers in the city were undoubtedly more well-informed than the taxi drivers of later generations.
The person pulling the cart for Liu Ping'an was a middle-aged man in his 30s, not tall.
When Liu Ping'an first appeared as a homeless man, he never thought that he could take a ride and thought that he was here to ask for directions. But who would have known that after asking for directions, Liu Lang directly gave the rickshaw driver a huge sum of 1 yuan and asked him to take him to Zhengyangmen. He also asked if there were any good cloth shops nearby and if so, he would take him directly to the store.
I said to the driver, "Call me when you get there."
I sat in the car and closed my eyes to rest, thinking about how I should live in the city and survive in this era. Although I am from the future, I still love this land deeply, but I always feel a sense of alienation from this era. Alas, it seems that it is time to find a suitable identity for myself to integrate into this era. After all, humans are social animals, and they will go crazy if they are alone for a long time. (ps: Although I have a system, I will never be able to go to heaven in this life.)
The journey was about 5 kilometers, and it passed by little by little while Liu Ping'an was thinking.
After a while, I heard the cart driver say, "Hey, you're here!"
Pulling Liu Ping'an's thoughts back from thinking.
After Liu Ping'an got off the car, the driver said, "See you later."
He drove his car to a conspicuous corner and waited for the next customer.
After Liu Ping'an got off the car, he looked up and saw a woman in a red cheongsam standing at the door of a silk shop. Liu Lang immediately thought of the woman - Chen Xueru.
Then, he walked towards the store at a leisurely pace. When he arrived at the door of the store, he did not rashly ask the owner's name, but walked into the store first and looked at the furnishings and arrangements in the store.
After looking for a while, he decided to order a few sets of clothes. So he walked to the counter and told the craftsman what he wanted. The craftsman enthusiastically measured his size and wrote it down. Then, he took out his wallet and paid half of the deposit.
However, he did not give up. He quietly took out two one-yuan notes from his wallet, put them in the master's hand, and said in a low voice: "Please help me to speed up. I will come to pick up the goods the day after tomorrow at the latest." The master took the money, smiled, nodded and promised: "Don't worry, I will make it for you on time!"
After getting the master's assurance, he nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the proprietress and started chatting with her. He asked about how to settle down nearby, such as whether there was a bathhouse nearby for bathing, whether there was a place to eat, and where to rent a house more economically and affordably.
After some indirect investigation, he finally found out that the beautiful female owner was Chen Xueru! This discovery made Liu Pingan feel very interested in the city of Beijing during this period.
Before leaving, Liu Ping'an asked the shop assistant to make him a new set of clothes from head to toe according to his own size, and then paid the full amount for it.
Finally, he left in a chic manner and walked towards the bathhouse near Zhengyang Gate, leaving behind a chic back view for the beautiful Chen Xueru.
"You really can't judge a person by his appearance!" As Liu Ping'an left, Chen Xueru sighed to the master in the store.
After the conversation just now, I learned that Liu Ping'an's family had suffered a disaster, and he had begged all the way here. Now that he has come to this city, he dares to buy a house for himself. (ps: This secret belongs to me alone, and I can't share it even if I have a wife in the future.)
The reason why I took the initiative to talk to Chen Xueru so much was, first, because I was curious and wanted to verify my guess; second, I thought about it on the way here and thought that I also wanted to buy a store in this area and do some small business. We will see each other every day in the future, so let's get familiar with each other in advance. It is definitely not that our protagonist Liu Lang is a mean person who covets other people's bodies.
This time I went to the bathhouse, I didn't call a taxi, I walked there, and got familiar with the environment. It was mid-June 1955, and the second set of RMB had only been issued for more than three months. The plan for public-private partnership officially started last year, in 6, and Beijing, as the capital of the new China, was naturally the first to bear the brunt.
Many shops on this street have joined the public-private partnership plan, including the famous tavern under Zhengyangmen.
After all, it was the first store on this street to respond to the call in the drama Little Women. However, the manager assigned by the government was really not very good. As a result, the tavern's business went downhill. Not long ago, it couldn't even pay the employees' salaries, which led to the replacement of the street office, and then things got better.
This has led many shop owners to consider closing down their businesses, selling their shops, and returning home to retire. After all, they are crossing the river by feeling the stones, and no one knows what the future holds.
