Siheyuan: I Called the Police at the Beginning

Chapter 1 Monopoly System

February 25, 1956, in the middle courtyard of a quadrangle in Nanluoguxiang, Beijing.

In a small room, a young man woke up from his bed in a daze, his eyes suddenly widening.

Because he found that he had traveled through time, and it seemed that he had traveled to the Qinman Siheyuan where demons and monsters gathered.

Looking at his patched thin clothes and pants, and the 20-square-meter hut with simple and sparse furniture that he could see the end of, Geng Ping'an felt like crying.

Although he still had more than ten years of mortgage to pay off before traveling through time, he was a pure slave of the 90s.

But the house we lived in was a new three-bedroom apartment of 115 square meters, where we wouldn't be hungry or cold.

Compared with the dilapidated earthen house in front of him, where cold wind was blowing through the cracks in the door and there was not much room to stay, it could be said to be a huge mansion.

When he thought that across from him was the home of He Yuzhu, the most violent and brainless bootlicker in the courtyard, and next door was the weird Jia family who had the most trouble, he secretly thought it was bad luck and the feng shui was ruined.

Most people really can't stand the vampire white lotus Qin Guafu, the white-eyed thief of the holy stick, and the fierceness of the undead summoner Jia Zhang.

Fortunately, he was born into the template of a time-traveling orphan, and the golden finger arrived as promised, so that he did not start from hell.

[Check in daily to get corresponding materials, skills, connections, attributes, etc., not limited to simple material rewards]

After absorbing the memories of his predecessor, Geng Ping'an discovered that Jia Dongxu at this time was still alive.

The future famous Thief of the Holy Stick was only four and a half years old and did not reveal his lawless nature to the world.

Touching his chin, Geng Pingan did not have the heart to save Jia Dongxu.

As the saying goes, let go of the desire to help others and respect their fate.

Jia Dongxu was destined to be hung on the wall.

He tried to persuade the other party with good intentions, but given the Jia family's good family tradition, the other party would not be grateful to him at all.

Even if Jia Dongxu really had an accident, he would be entangled by Jia Zhangshi and morally blackmailed by Yi Zhonghai, adding endless troubles to him.

The vivid images that emerged in his mind made Geng Ping'an shiver all over.

As a time traveler, he naturally would not tolerate a group of beasts.

Yi Zhonghai wanted to brainwash him like he did to Sha Zhu, so he killed Yi Zhonghai in front of everyone.

One punch makes all the flowers bloom.

But this group of people is disgusting.

Geng Ping'an didn't want to suffer any hardship, and when he knew clearly what kind of people these people were in the compound, he still gave them a chance to rely on him.

The most important thing for him now is to go to Herentang to check in immediately and see what rewards he can get.

As an orphan without parental support, Geng Ping'an was directly despised by the snobs in the courtyard, who seemed to be afraid that he would come to them to borrow money.

So along the way, Geng Ping'an walked out of the front yard like an invisible person.

Soon we arrived at Baorentang.

"Master, good luck."

Geng Ping'an was welcomed into the store by a waiter-like clerk who called out to him, and looked around the store.

A little novel.

First, Baorentang is considered a century-old brand with a long history in later generations, and second, there will be a day when he will be called "Master".

The authentic old BJ accent makes people feel comfortable listening to it from the bottom of their hearts.

"Master, what do you want? I'll get it for you."

The clerk was naturally happy to see that there was business.

Now is the period when public-private partnership has just been implemented.

Although they have a semi-public status, they are still more accustomed to the old ways and hope to earn a small commission or even a reward from Geng Ping'an.

"Well, I'll just take a look first. I'll call you when I'm done."

Seeing the shop assistant surrounding him attentively, Geng Ping'an found a reason to send him away.

Why buy medicine if you are not sick or in pain?

He came in to take a look, but didn't say he had to buy anything.

Ding!
[Your first time checking in at Baorentang, you triggered a system critical hit.]

[You have obtained a powerful pill. After taking it, your grip strength increases by 100 kg.]

[You have gained mastery of Traditional Chinese Medicine] [You have gained a set of silver needles and gold needles]

[You obtain three jars of tiger bone wine]

[You get ten bottles of Liuwei Dihuang Pills]

The system prompt sounds rang in his mind one after another, making Geng Ping'an happy.

Newbies will definitely hit hard.

And the system is awesome, it must be a top-notch product.

There is no need to say much about his proficiency in traditional Chinese medicine. It is equivalent to the skills of an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner with decades of experience, and he is proficient in all aspects of Chinese medicine.

Its role and importance in this era are enormous.

Don't be afraid that a minor cold will inadvertently take your life.

There is also the Dali Pill. Although its name sounds like a common street vendor product, it is actually a precious medicine that touches the extraordinary system.

An adult's grip strength is between 43-50 kg.

Even Sha Zhu, who is known as the God of War in the Siheyuan Courtyard.

Geng Ping'an didn't believe that his strength could exceed that of two adults combined.

As long as he takes the powerful pill, he will be born with supernatural strength. If rounded up, his grip strength is 150 kilograms, which is no problem.

Completely crush Shazhu, the bootlicker who was showing off in the yard.

After mastering Chinese medicine, Geng Ping'an is no longer a novice when it comes to the medicinal materials in the store.

I looked around the counters in the store.

He immediately discovered that many of the medicinal herbs in the store were high-quality.

Without looking at the size or appearance, just by smelling the scent, he could feel that these were tonic medicines with great medicinal power that could not be compared with those artificially cultivated ones in later generations.

This made him want to buy some and try out his medical skills.

It's a pity that he can't afford it.

The medical skills drawn by the system cannot stand up to scrutiny.

After all, there is no such thing as self-study or quick mastery in traditional Chinese medicine.

If he wanted to show even one tenth of his abilities to the world, there had to be at least traceable evidence, and he had to find a reputable master to guide him into the world.

After thinking about it, Geng Ping'an decided to take out a jar of tiger bone wine from the backpack that came with the system and sell it.

Earn some living expenses for yourself.

He was an orphan in his previous life, and it was not easy for him to survive in a courtyard full of beasts.

You have to understand that in recent years there has been no talk of children inheriting their parents' jobs.

However, he just missed the good opportunity for public-private partnership reform.

His parents passed away early during Director Lou's time, so although his predecessor was able to live in the compound out of pity and not be driven away, he did not have the favor and incense of He Daqing like Sha Zhu.

He successfully got a job at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

So, He Daqing still had a conscience when he left.

At least He Yuzhu learned good cooking skills, so he didn't starve to death and didn't have to worry about having no place to stay and work.

In the later period, Shazhu was so miserable.

It’s all He Daqing’s fault for entrusting the wrong person, and it’s all Sha Zhu’s own fault.

Not only was the living expenses he mailed back embezzled by Yi Zhonghai for twenty years, but the relationship between father and son was constantly sown, and Sha Zhu was treated like a fool.

"Where's your boss? I have a jar of excellent tiger bone wine that's been passed down in my family and I've been reluctant to sell it. Would you like to buy it?"

"If there was no other way, I would keep it for myself to drink and nourish my body."

Although he still had two jars of tiger bone wine, he wanted to sell them at a high price, so he naturally exaggerated.

Geng Ping'an directly complained to the clerk, talking about his own difficulties while emphasizing the good quality of the tiger bone wine.

"Yes, of course. Please wait a moment, I will call the shopkeeper over."

Having been influenced by it, the clerk certainly knew that tiger bone wine was a good thing.

He nodded and immediately ran to the backyard.

While the clerk was calling for help, Geng Ping'an pretended to walk out of the store.

Then he came back with his hands holding a rather large, rustic wine jar, pretending to have just carefully brought it from outside.
