To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

After all, the Wang Tang family has a heritage and they have quite a few antiques. The rest of the traitors' families are basically nouveau riche.

The money collected included gold, silver, jewelry and yellow croakers of various sizes.

The money was in boxes. These unscrupulous Japanese people exchanged a large amount of Union Bank notes for too much gold and silver.

In fact, the common people are not stupid. They just have no choice but to prevent the circulation of silver dollars and gold. If they catch them, they will beat them to death and force you to pay real gold and silver to redeem them.

Over the years, they have fabricated charges and arrested a large number of wealthy families and sent them to the gendarmerie. Many families have lost everything.

That's why traitors are the most hateful, because they are the ones who come up with all the bad ideas. The people who know you best are often the most terrifying.

Three million six hundred thousand silver dollars and seventy-two boxes of gold bars were seized from the homes of these dozen or so traitors.

Thirty-five boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. The most infuriating thing is that many people in Beijing got appendicitis after eating the Republic noodles.

Because bran and dust were added to the flour, even the flour in the warehouse was ground into flour and fed to the people in Beijing.

More than 80,000 kilograms of rice and flour were confiscated from the homes of these traitors, and there were about 5,000 to 6,000 kilograms of various meats.

There are also many high-end goods such as abalone, bird's nest, sea cucumber and scallop. The traitors are really good at taking care of themselves.

These supplements filled twenty sacks, not to mention more than a thousand pieces of various fabrics such as silk, satin, woolen cloth and cotton.

They really hoarded everything. At that time, you couldn't even buy a pack of matches in the entire city because the sulfur on the match heads had been used to support the war.

These traitors have hundreds of packs of matches stored in their homes. The people's money has made these beasts rich.

As for the two Japanese ships, they were filled with all kinds of things, including 120 boxes of gold bars and 500 boxes of silver dollars.

The largest amount left was various precious books, a total of six hundred boxes of various books.

There were also sixty large boxes of jewelry and eighty boxes of antiques.

The Japanese never let their ships be empty. Soybean oil, coal, cotton, and medicinal materials were packed together in sacks.

After sorting these things out for Madam Qin, she was so tired that she lay down beside the Lingquan Pond and refused to move no matter what.

What does it mean to count money until your hands cramp? Now Li Yujin doesn’t like to count money anymore. He just puts the big bucks and gold bars into the storage bag according to the category.

Otherwise, it would take forever to count all the money in the space. After sorting out the things in the space, Li Yujin slipped out of the space.

Now the young master can pretend to be cool and say that he has no interest in money.

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and it’s time for friends and relatives to visit each other.

Li Yujin arranged affordable holiday gifts for his childhood friends, 20 kilograms of white flour and 5 kilograms of pork belly for each family.

Of course, there were also gifts in return. Li Yujin had received over twenty boxes of snacks. In this era of skyrocketing prices, they were doing quite well.

At least we can eat white flour and meat-filled dumplings during the Chinese New Year, but these dumplings are a problem for many families this year.

Because prices were more expensive at the end of the year, the price of white flour rose to 800 French francs per pound by the end of the year.

This is outrageous. Right now, Yi Zhonghai from the next courtyard is sighing, "Life is unbearable!

My monthly salary has increased to 50,000 yuan, but I can't be happy at all. Pork has increased to 5,000 yuan per catty, and flour has increased to 1000 yuan per catty.

It’s almost a problem to have food with this little money, but we have to make dumplings for Chinese New Year!”

Yi Zhonghai's wife's eyes were red: "It's my fault for being too hasty. I saw it but didn't buy it. I bought corn flour today, but what should I do if the price of white flour goes up tomorrow?"

People like Yi Zhonghai are still good. There are so many people who can hardly afford to eat cornmeal steamed bread.

There's nothing that can be done about it. Except for He Daqing's family and the deaf old lady, no family in Yard No. 95 can eat white flour and meat dumplings this year.

Yan Fugui now distributes steamed bread to the children in certain quantities at every meal. If you finish this fixed amount every day, you will go hungry.

Yan Fugui had also replaced the white flour subsidies for primary school teachers with cornmeal. Being able to fill one's stomach was better than anything else. At least not having to eat Gonghe noodles was good enough.

The deaf old woman dug out a brick from under the bed with trembling hands and took out a small box from it.

There were twelve rolls of ocean water, five large yellow croakers, two jade bracelets and several gold hairpins in it.

This is the old lady's life savings. She has spent a lot of it during the chaos of war. Now, on New Year's Day, she has to spend two dollars to have a good meal!

Not to mention the purchasing power of the dollar, it is amazing. The deaf old lady bought 20 kilograms of flour and 6 kilograms of pork with two dollars.

The deaf old lady didn't dare to chop the pork filling hard at home. There were so many children in the yard. If the news got out, a group of children would run to the door to ask for dumplings.

The deaf old lady cut the meat into as small pieces as possible on the chopping board. She was busy all day preparing the dumpling filling.

The deaf old lady cooked a large bowl of dumplings for herself, adding cabbage and soy sauce. She ate them all without caring about the burn.

The deaf old woman locked the leftover food in the cupboard, as it was winter and things would not spoil easily. She could eat all of it for half a month.

However, even though the deaf old lady was so cautious, Jia Zhang was still keeping an eye on her. When the deaf old lady was cooking dumplings, Jia Zhang happened to go to the backyard to borrow a winnowing basket.

Just then, she smelled the aroma of dumplings. With a look of disdain on her face, Jia Zhang returned home and complained to her husband:

"The deaf old lady in the backyard is such a piece of shit. She's so old and half buried in the ground, yet she still eats alone.

I passed by his house today and smelled dumplings. Isn’t she afraid of choking to death?

Bah! Our Dongxu always calls me grandma! But he's eating dumplings in secret.

This damn old woman can't even pour boiling water on her!"

Lao Jia took a sip of boiled water and said, "Don't dream! What's the price of white flour and pork these days?

If I could afford it, I wouldn't give it to others. How many years has it been since I last had big meat dumplings?

Even after the restoration of the country, life is still miserable! This damned world is truly unbearable."

Jia Zhang wanted to get some good stuff from the deaf old lady, but the deaf old lady was very cautious.

He stayed in his room every day, and locked the door behind him when he went to the toilet.

Jia Zhang was so angry that her teeth were itching but she could do nothing about it. This old woman eating dumplings every day was simply too much.

The advantage of Li Yujin's own house and courtyard was reflected. He could eat whatever he wanted in his own courtyard.

On the night of the 30th, Li Yujin prepared a table full of delicious dishes for himself, including stewed chicken with mushrooms, stir-fried sea cucumber with scallions, nine-turn large intestine, braised prawns, braised pork with preserved vegetables, steamed crabs, braised fish, and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

The dumplings with three fresh fillings sizzle with oil and the delicious soup bursts directly in your mouth.

In addition to food, there were also juice and beer on the table. Li Yujin enjoyed the food and wine very much.

A sweet song came from the radio, "When Will You Come Back?"
