Reborn in 1977, starting with severing ties with family.

Jiang Sen guessed correctly.

The gate is bright and spacious, with stone drums, hitching posts, red door knockers, and carved beams and painted rafters.

Some grass grew on the tall walls, but it couldn't hide the eaves and animal figures on the roof inside.

Moreover, this courtyard is located diagonally opposite the Prince Gong's Mansion, which was the residence of Heshen in the past.

It's right next to Houhai Lake and the Forbidden City; it used to be the residence of princes and nobles.

"How about it?" Luo Jianshe asked, with a hint of pride in his voice. "Isn't this a big surprise?"

"A huge surprise, a truly huge surprise!" Jiang Sen nodded repeatedly. "Is this your home?"

"What?! What big surprise could there be at my house?!" Luo Jianshe pulled out the keys and placed them in Jiang Sen's hand. "This is your house! Have you forgotten what I told you? That ginseng you had my father give to a patient as a thank-you gift! I only sent you the money back then, but I can't send the house. The paperwork is all in my hands. You two get some rest tonight, and I'll come over first thing tomorrow morning to take you to transfer the ownership. By the way, you have that... the letter of introduction for returning to the city, the household registration, etc., right?"

"They have everything!" Jiang Sen patted his backpack, somewhat impatient. "Let's go in and take a look!"

Upon entering, there is a lotus and carp screen wall, a side room, and a corridor on both sides leading all the way to the back.

In the middle courtyard, the originally carved blue bricks are worn, and some weeds grow in the gaps.

Two lotus-shaped fish tanks are located on either side of the yard.

In the second courtyard, there are osmanthus trees and ginkgo trees, as well as a water feature in the corner, with green bamboo planted next to it.

There is a stone table and benches in the middle, and several bonsai trees on the side.

After a quick look around, Luo Jianshe began to introduce himself and Yingzi.

"The two-courtyard house isn't very big; it's that family's old house, and it's just been sitting here since no one lives there. Your ginseng saved their life, and they gave you money, but they still felt it wasn't enough. After learning about your family's past, they gave you this unused courtyard as well!"

"Isn't this too expensive!" Jiang Sen thought that a single ginseng root shouldn't be worth that much money.

"Then you wouldn't know! We'll talk about it later. I've had someone tidy things up a bit first, and you can take care of the rest yourselves later. It's getting late, you guys rest. I'm going back now, I'll come find you tomorrow!"

After seeing the person off, Jiang Sen returned and happily hugged Yingzi, spinning her around several times.

"Yingzi, we have a home now!"

Yingzi asked curiously, "Didn't you have a home before?"

Jiang Sen said, "I used to have a home, then I lost it, but now I have one again! Come on, let's go inside and take a look. From now on, you'll be the mistress of this place!"

The two picked up their luggage and went into the main room first. After turning on the lights, they saw that Luo Jianshe said he had just tidied up a bit, but in reality, everything was prepared.

This is a huge favor.

Someone else might feel very uneasy.

Ginseng is a medicine, and it's medicine no matter who he sells it to; it's not worth the high price anyone would pay.

Jiang Sen had already guessed that the person ginseng saved was no ordinary person; at the very least, someone beyond his reach.

They handed him the house without batting an eye; if he hesitated or made excuses, it would seem pretentious.

It would make people wonder if Johnson had ulterior motives.

Once the money is received, the matter is settled.

Even if Jiang Sen really had some request, they would use that as an excuse to ignore him.

Therefore, Jiang Sen felt perfectly justified in taking the house.

Besides, the courtyard houses in this location were worth over 100 million in my previous life.

Yingzi curiously looked around the various rooms, running back and forth, always feeling like she couldn't get enough of it.

Jiang Sen followed her and turned on all the lights in the yard. He just looked at it, never expecting that he would one day be able to live in such a yard.

It was late at night, and Yingzi yawned after days of running around.

"Which room do I sleep in?" she asked.

Jiang Sen quickly pulled her into the main room, "Stay in this room!"

Yingzi stopped as soon as she entered the room, looking at the two quilts lying side by side on the kang (a heated brick bed).

"What's wrong? It's getting late, go to sleep! You look so tired and pale. Come on, let me help you take off your clothes..."

"what……"

Yingzi took a quilt and went to the side room next door.

Jiang Sen lay half-submerged in the blankets for a while before getting up, chuckling wickedly as he muttered, "Little brat, still feeling embarrassed? You just wait."

Silent all night.

The next morning, Luo Jianshe arrived with breakfast.

He placed the things on the stone table in the courtyard.

"Can't you find this in the Great Northern Wilderness? This is soy milk, this is fermented mung bean juice, this is fried dough sticks, and this is fried dough rings!"

Jiang Sen's lips twitched. He glanced at Yingzi and pushed the soy milk towards her. "Try this."

Although Yingzi had never eaten fried dough sticks before, she could tell from the look of them that they were made of dough and that they were very fragrant with every bite.

Soy milk is made from soybeans.

She nodded. "Delicious!"

Jiang Sen laughed and pushed the fermented mung bean juice to Luo Jianshe, saying, "I don't like this kind of food."

Luo Jianshe didn't care at all. He picked it up and took a big gulp, then took a big bite of the fried dough ring.

"Let me tell you, you don't look like a true Beijinger. What old Beijinger doesn't love this? Slurp..."

After the meal, Luo Jianshe urged Jiang Sen to take his things and come with him.

The three of them went out the door, but didn't drive. They went straight along the road, turned a corner, and arrived at the neighborhood committee. Next to it was the street, and across the street was the police station.

Jiang Sen had all the necessary materials, and with Luo Jianshe also present, it seemed he was quite familiar with everyone here.

The registration and property transfer were completed in just one morning.

"Alright! All set!" Luo Jianshe said. "Have you thought about what you'll do in the future? If you want to go to work, I can't brag, but you can get into factories 4, 6, or 7. If you don't want to work, how about we continue dealing in mountain products together?"

Jiang Sen said, "I just got back, and I haven't thought about this matter yet. Give me a few days."

"Okay! I'll head back now. You should get a phone installed later so it'll be easier to stay in touch."

Jiang Sen was very interested.

However, nowadays, you need to meet certain quotas to install landline phones.

We also need to run a separate line from the telephone exchange.

This isn't something that can be done simply by having money.

"Do you have connections to install a telephone?" Jiang Sen asked. "If you have connections, I'll help you install one, no matter the cost."

Luo Jianshe nodded, "No problem." After saying that, he put his arm around Jiang Sen and asked in a low voice, "Tell me honestly, how much money have you made now? Haiyang and I have been planning to start a company! We definitely can't be the ones to do it. If you agree, we can start one in your name, and Haiyang and I can invest and hold shares."

Jiang Sen never expected that Luo Jianshe would bring up the same thing Wang Haiyang had mentioned before about starting a large company.

They should have had this idea a long time ago.

Jiang Sen thought for a moment, "I'll consider it!"

"Hey! That's right! Let me tell you, once the company is up and running, you just need to focus on sourcing and hiring. As for the other connections, there's nothing we can't handle in Beijing. Go back and think it over carefully. I'll come back to see you in a couple of days!"

After seeing Luo Jianshe off, Jiang Sen pulled Yingzi back home.

Today, Yingzi changed out of her Oroqen ethnic clothing and wore normal clothes: black pants, a white shirt, and black velvet cloth shoes.

Even so, the number of people turning their heads to look at them along the way was still very high.

Jiang Sen took Yingzi to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of household necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, and so on.

The two happily carried the two large bags home, but as soon as they reached the door, they saw someone peeking out and looking at the gate.

Upon seeing this person, Jiang Sen's face immediately darkened.
