Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

As for little Ning Wei, he will be thirteen years old when he goes to the countryside next year. After four or five years of hard work with me on the Loess Plateau, he has just reached adulthood and is eligible to join the army.

It would be better for me to send my younger brother, who is born with the talent of a soldier, to the army to gain experience.

If he selfishly keeps this kid by his side, it will be a regret for Ning Wei and a loss for the country.

Ning Wei in the TV series is very eager to stay in the army. Of course, it may also be that he has no relatives at home and no one is attached to him, so he regards the army as his home.

In this life, as long as Ning Yuan ensures that nothing happens to him, little Ning Wei will always have a home.

If he wants to be demobilized and go home at that time, let him go home. If he still wants to fight in the army, let him do that.

After his thoughts wandered for a long time, Ning Yuan pondered the operating skills of this jade pendant space.

Anything placed in this space will remain absolutely still, for example, fruits will not rot or spoil.

Moreover, the things in this space can change their positions according to his thoughts.

In other words, this 300 cubic meters of space, which is ten meters long, ten meters wide and three meters high, can be fully utilized.

There is no common area and no high place, which makes it inconvenient to use.

So as long as he arranges the space reasonably, not to mention 20,000 kilograms of food, even 200,000 kilograms would be more than enough.

One hundred kilograms of grain packed in a burlap bag will take up less than a quarter of a cubic meter of space. If you have a lot of grain stored, you can store 20,000 kilograms of grain, which will only take up less than 50 cubic meters of space.

The remaining space can be used to store some fruits, pork, mutton, beer, drinks, etc.

By the way, you also need to reserve a small corner to store some of your collected antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

After making careful plans, Ning Yuan finally fell into a deep sleep.

.........

The next morning, Ning Yuan left home early and headed straight for the pigeon market outside Chongwenmen.

After some calculations yesterday, Ning Yuan realized that his grain storage plan had to be implemented every day regardless of rain or shine in order to save enough.

I have only stockpiled 2,700 kilograms so far, and I still need more than 15,000 kilograms. If I don't come across a huge amount of food like that old uncle, at my rate of buying 50 kilograms a day, it will take me a whole year, rain or shine, to stockpile enough.

Moreover, it would cost at least 4,000 yuan to produce 20,000 kilograms of grain, so we still have to keep making money.

Ning Yuan didn't know what to do and was shocked when he calculated it.

A few days ago, I was obviously a little too proud. I actually went to restaurants to treat people to meals every day. Well, although treating my brothers to a meal is an expense that should be spent, I still have to pay attention to the frequency.

After all, these days, landlords don’t have any surplus food!

After going to the Chongwenmen Pigeon Market, I directly found a few people selling grain. The amount was not much, just about fifty or sixty kilograms, and I also bought some free-range eggs from my own farm.

There are a few more stalls selling malt sugar in the market today, and there are quite a few people gathered around them.

Ning Yuan calculated the date and found that tomorrow is the Little New Year. Traditional customs and traditional food always appear together.

No matter how hard life is, people always want to prepare some delicious food to give their children a happy and sweet memory during festivals.

Ning Yuan also went over and bought more than three pounds of malt sugar. Now his hands were full, and he left the market and returned home satisfied.

On the way, he had already taken advantage of a place where no one was around to store all the food and eggs in his space. After all, he had not finished eating the eggs and food he bought last time.

Just put a big bag of maltose on the windowsill at the door.

After entering the house and sitting down to take a breath, Ning Yuan took out all his savings from the space and counted them. There was still more than 1,500 yuan left. Looking at the money, Ning Yuan started to think about something else.

When the money from the sale of the jade Maitreya Buddha was delivered to Chen Liangzi the day before yesterday, Chen Liangzi was also a little confused. Why did the two jade Buddhas only sell for more than 1,000 yuan, but he only got 360 yuan?

Ning Yuan also said frankly that he only sold a Maitreya statue, and the Jade Guanyin statue was still in his hands and had not been sold.

Chen Liangzi didn't say anything else. After taking the money, he didn't take anything out to give to Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan also had some guesses. Chen Liangzi was also a smart man. Although he was not sure about the value of these rare things in his hands at the moment, he was sure that these things would become more and more valuable in the future.

So this kid also had his own plans. He started thinking that once he had enough money, he would keep more good stuff.

People are selfish, Ning Yuan guessed it but couldn't blame them.

Moreover, Ning Yuan felt that he had enough money at this time, so he didn't say anything more.

After doing the math today, I realized that this little money is just not enough. Not to mention the daily high consumption of a bunch of friends, even if he just ate steamed bread honestly and stockpiled food for going to the countryside to work in the fields, it would still not be enough.

We still have to find ways to collect old items through multiple channels.

By the way, we also need to find more sales channels.

That night at the entrance of Taoranting Park, Zheng Tong said it clearly that Zhang Fengkai, the manager of Lao Mo Restaurant, accepted a small stack of Great Unity bills from the overseas Chinese at the entrance.

Although we can't blame others for doing something wrong.

However, people with such big appetites are bound to be difficult to keep. Once they can find a channel to replace themselves, others will inevitably abandon them as partners.

Born in sorrow and died in happiness.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Ning Yuan has deeply understood the meaning of this sentence.

While I was thinking about these things, I suddenly heard the sound of someone getting dressed in the inner room.

It seems that our young master Ning Wei has finally gotten up.

Ning Yuan shook his head, got up and started to make breakfast. He cooked some thick millet porridge, then steamed a few buns and two eggs. He also made a small bowl of sauerkraut in the yard, and the breakfast was ready.

Don’t underestimate this simple fact. Ning Yuan can guarantee that the quality of their breakfast is definitely the best in the city.

Ning Wei is a kid who is in the growth stage. He needs to be well fed and well-drinking every day. If he grows taller, with his stern facial features, we can win over not only the general's daughter but even his commander's daughter!

With this in mind, Ning Yuan kept urging little Ning Wei to eat quickly and eat more at the dinner table.

Ning Wei said impatiently: "Oh, I know, big brother, you just want me to wash the dishes, I will wash them after I finish eating!"

Ning Yuan looked at this chubby boy and didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment. What the hell are you doing washing dishes? Big brother is urging you to speed up and get towards the commander's son-in-law!
