Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

After parking their bicycles, the two went into the state-owned restaurant together.

On a cold winter morning, not everyone likes to go out in the cold wind to look for food.

During this period of time, there were not many people eating breakfast in the restaurant, just a few scattered around.

"What do you want to eat?" Gu Jiu looked up at the small blackboard, on which was written today's supply.

"Give me a bowl of beef noodles."

Li Yuanchao wiped his nose and said, "I'll have a bowl of beef noodles, too."

Gu Jiu took out money from his pocket, paid the bill, and found an empty seat to sit down.

Li Yuanchao was very considerate and helped pour the tea. "Brother Jiu, it's too cold today. Drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."

Gu Jiu gently turned the teacup. The texture of this coarse porcelain was very rough. After turning it around, he found that the cup was relatively clean, so he reluctantly took a small sip.

Li Yuanchao didn't have so many bad habits. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. The shock to his taste buds was so bitter that his eyebrows almost got knotted.

"Puh, puh, puh!" The guy spat out all the dregs in his mouth. "Fuck, did these idiots take kickbacks again? This tea is full of tea leaves and tea stems. I believe lesbians will like these tea stems."

Lesbians of this era like to get their ears pierced, but they don’t have earrings to wear. In order to prevent their ear holes from being blocked, they like to insert tea stalks into their ear holes.

You see, Lin Shu doesn't wear earrings and usually plugs her ear holes with tea stalks.

"It's good to have tea leaves to drink. Sometimes they even give you a pot of boiled water."

Two large bowls of beef noodles were brought over. Gu Jiu pushed a bowl to him, smelling the overbearing aroma of the braised beef, and asked, "How have you been doing in the past few months?"

"I'm still sweeping the streets every day, just like before." Li Yuanchao picked up a piece of braised beef and ate it first. It had been a long time since he had come across a state-owned restaurant serving braised beef noodles. It tasted really good.

"where are they?"

"Xu will get married next year. His sister Xu Ting got engaged last month. An Fan works for you. Half a month ago, his father went to him to ask for money and made a scene. Later, he gave him 20 yuan to get rid of him. Tang Jianjun and Ding Xing seem to have made some progress."

Gu Jiu sipped her powder and looked up at him, "Xu Ting is engaged, who is the one?"

Of the things that happened, only the man Xu Ting was engaged to was unknown. When Gu Jiu pressed on this, Li Yuanchao thought of some of Xu Ting's past deeds and replied, "He has a stable job, working in the State Taxation Bureau. His name seems to be Zhang Pujun. Xu Ming said that his parents are very satisfied with the man."

"Brother Jiu, how long will you stay after you come back? Are you going to spend the New Year here or go back to the provincial capital?"

"Celebrate the New Year here, and then return to the provincial capital after the New Year. Tomorrow you can notify the others and have dinner at my house tomorrow night."

Li Yuanchao happily agreed, "Okay, I haven't eaten pig's head for a long time. Let Tang Jianjun order a pig's head tomorrow, and then we can braise the pig's head meat."

Gu Jiu got a headache when he heard about pig heads. They are delicious when braised, but difficult to handle. "No, it's so cold, and it's hard to handle pig heads. Who will handle them if you bring them? I'll tell you first, I won't do it."

"I have my sister-in-law and her cooking skills..." Li Yuanchao's righteous tone gradually faded under Gu Jiu's sharp eyes.

"If you buy a pig's head, you guys should handle it. Don't forget that my wife is almost five months pregnant now. How can she squat on the ground for a long time to handle a pig's head?"

"Okay, okay, okay! We'll buy it and process it before bringing it over." Li Yuanchao was afraid of him. He was the first brother who was so protective of his wife.

In his impression, women are the head of the household in every family, and it is normal to leave household chores to women.

After Gu Jiu finished his instructions, he quickly finished the noodles in his bowl and put down his chopsticks. "Take your time to eat. I'm leaving now. I have to pack a portion for your sister-in-law."

"Okay, brother, take your time." Li Yuanchao also sped up his eating.

Gu Jiu wrapped a scarf around his neck, put on gloves, carried the packed lunch box and went out. He took out an old piece of clothing from the basket in front of the bicycle, wrapped the lunch box, pushed the bicycle and turned into the traffic.

When he got home, Lin Shu had already washed up and was sitting in the kitchen boiling water. "You're back. What did you buy for breakfast?"

"It just so happens that the restaurant is serving beef noodles today. I made you a portion. Eat it while it's hot."

Speaking of beef, Lin Shu has never eaten it even once since he was reborn, so he is really craving for it.

"There's hot water in the pot. Don't use cold water to wash clothes. Use the hot water in the pot." Lin Shu reminded.

There were no automatic washing machines like in later generations, so clothes had to be washed by hand. In summer, it was OK, because clothes were easy to wash, but in winter, clothes were thick and the water was cold, so clothes were even harder to dry.

Due to these difficulties, many people only change their clothes once every ten days or half a month in winter.

Influenced by later generations, Lin Shu had long been accustomed to taking a bath and changing clothes every other day in winter.

In winter, when it’s too cold and clothes can’t be dried, you can use fire to dry them, which is quite convenient.

Gu Jiu, "Okay, will you come over after you finish shopping?"

"I'll go straight to the old house after I finish shopping. You can come over after you finish washing your clothes. We'll have dinner there today."

After breakfast, Lin Shu hung a basket on the back seat of his bicycle, stuffed a sack on it, and went out.

She rode her bike to the farmers' market, walked around the entrance, and saw many villagers coming from the countryside to sell vegetables, so she picked some vegetables.

I wandered all the way to the old house and entered through the main gate. There was no one in the courtyard or the hall. I thought Comrade Liu Xiao'e must have gone to the store in front.

Lin Shu took down the two baskets on the back seat of the bicycle, opened the system mall, bought five kilograms of Xiaomi and threw it at the bottom of the basket, five kilograms of red beans and brown sugar each, and two cartons of eggs, filling the basket.

Another basket was filled with fruit, and I sold 15 kilograms of apples, pears, and oranges each.

Finally, thirty grass carps, each weighing about three pounds, were packed into sacks and prepared to be pickled to make cured fish.

Of course, pork is indispensable for pickled and cured products, so Lin Shu bought a slab of pork from the mall.

These things were piled up in the hall. Seeing that Comrade Liu Xiao'e had not returned yet, Lin Shu went to the room where the medicinal materials were stored and put the medicinal materials purchased during late autumn into the system.

We will basically not be harvesting medicinal herbs this year, nor will we be purchasing them next spring. It will take until summer at least before we can harvest and weigh the medicinal herbs.

Looking at the balance of the system, after almost nine months of hard work, the system balance has now reached more than 78,400 yuan. If you withdraw cash, the actual amount will be more than 70,000 yuan, nearly 80,000 yuan.

It can be said that before the 1980s, she was the first to become a millionaire.

Lin Shu came out of the room and went into the kitchen for a look. There was still a lot of rice and flour, so he would send them two bags of rice and flour tomorrow.

There were footsteps at the front door. Lin Shu came out of the kitchen and saw Lin Wei and Lin Guang coming in from outside.

Lin Wei was the first to notice Lin Shu. He was surprised and delighted. "Youngest, when did you come back?"

Lin Guang also asked in surprise: "Youngest, you are back. Where is your brother-in-law?"
