Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

Key gains: Gold. Dollars. RMB!

Gold: 12 large yellow croakers. 61 small gold coins. 500 silver dollars in five envelopes, all Yuan Shikai silver dollars, no other silver coins.

Yuan Shikai silver dollar is a specific type of silver coin, referring specifically to silver coins bearing the portrait of Yuan Shikai minted during the Republic of China period.

Silver dollars refer to all round coins made primarily of silver, including various historical currencies such as the Yuan Shikai silver dollar.

Silver dollars: Refers to machine-made silver coins that circulated from the late 19th to the mid-20th century. They were primarily made of silver (usually containing 80%-90% silver) and weighed approximately 26-27 grams. Representative currencies include Qing Dynasty silver coins and Sun Yat-sen portrait silver dollars (Sun Yat-sen small heads). "Silver dollar" is a general term encompassing coins from different dynasties, depicting different figures and variations.

Yuan Shikai silver dollar: Specifically refers to the silver coin with portrait of Yuan Shikai and ears of grain on the reverse, issued by the Beiyang government from 1914 to 1929 (and reminted in 1951), which is a subcategory of silver coins.

Its name comes from the large portrait of Yuan Shikai on the obverse and the grain pattern on the reverse. It is approximately 89% pure silver and weighs 26.6 grams (one yuan face value).

A set of RMB: a total of 86 million (8,600 yuan), of which 50 million is relatively new currency, more than 80%.

With this money, you can use less of the system's gold coins to buy various goods in the market.

He Yuzhu had no interest in making money by reselling system resources.

We currently have a total of 98 million, which is enough to buy a lot of supplies.

In Su Xiaoya's basement, there were five jewelry boxes containing five sets of jewelry: three sets of gold jewelry, one set of Hetian jade jewelry, and one set of jewelry made of an unknown material.

Two sets are brand new: one is a set of gold jewelry and the other is a set of jewelry of unknown material.

The two stamp albums contain nearly four hundred different stamps. Most of them are older stamps, kept as souvenirs, and there's no need to sell them for money.

There were also nine paintings, six pieces of porcelain, over twenty jade pendants, and sixteen snuff bottles. Two pieces of Hetian jade pebbles, one a three-kilogram yellow jade and the other a five-kilogram mutton fat jade.

Su Xiaoya had a considerable collection, but she didn't have time to ask her downlines. With this wealth, He Yuzhu was content.

"No one gets rich without unexpected wealth." The ancients were right!

rest!

"Reporting to the battalion commander, the search of the female spy's home has been completed, and all the tools used in the crime have been found."

However, just as the patriotic thief in the letter said, there was less than a million yuan in the room. Should we continue the investigation?

"Xiao Gao, don't worry about these things. A young female spy wouldn't have much wealth."

If what the letter says is true, and this woman is a major spy, she must have more contacts. Ensuring the safety of Yanjing is our most important task.

We didn't fire a single shot, and none of our comrades were injured or killed—this is the best possible outcome. Besides, we've rendered meritorious service this time.

Catching this thief wasn't easy. Let's call it a day and go back to interrogating the female spy.

"yes."

........

Three days later, Lou Bancheng was going to treat his guests to dinner at the Emei Restaurant. Since the three guests were all from Sichuan, he ordered the best six cold dishes, ten hot dishes, and one soup at the restaurant.

To prepare "boiled cabbage in clear broth", Lou Bancheng's housekeeper booked a table at Emei Restaurant three days ago.

The apprentices in the kitchen were very excited. Lou Bancheng ordered a lot of dishes, but there were few customers, so there would be a lot of leftovers. Given Lou Bancheng's status, it was impossible for him to pack them up.

Knowing that Lou Bancheng was going to treat everyone, He Yuzhu thought of 'Silly Girl' and all sorts of thoughts rushed through his mind, and he hesitated.

It's unlikely I'll marry her. Her age and family background are unsuitable, especially her age. Lou Xiao is only about eleven years old now. I can't afford to wait, and I don't want to wait.

Family background is a minor issue; at worst, he can go to Hong Kong. He Yuzhu himself wanted to go there and didn't want to waste more than 20 years in the courtyard house.

Lou Bancheng treated us to a meal, and indeed there was a lot of food left over. There were only four people eating, and they couldn't possibly finish all the food they ordered. They only tasted a little of each dish.

This is incredibly extravagant. Ordinary people are eating meager rations, while these people are eating... If something goes wrong later, they can't blame anyone else.

The problem is not scarcity, but inequality!

He Yuzhu didn't ask for the leftovers. After transmigrating, he stopped eating leftovers, including He Yushui's.

That day, He Yuzhu heard the news that Su Xiaoya had been arrested. The young man who delivered the message didn't know the address or name, but he said the location was about right.

Not only Su Xiaoya, but also hundreds of spies and related people were arrested in three days. From now on, they will all be lined up to be shot at.

The number of people doesn't matter; as long as we catch them, nothing else is important.

He Yuzhu returned home around 7 p.m. on the eve of the Lunar New Year and took out five kinds of dumplings weighing one and a half pounds each from the system store. Eating dumplings on the eve of the Lunar New Year is a custom in Yanjing.

"Rain, come and eat dumplings." They didn't let her eat her fill at the restaurant, they just gave her three cabbage and pork dumplings to fill her stomach.

"Brother, dumplings! I didn't get enough to eat at the restaurant, let's eat together." He Yushui quickly went to the table and sat down.

He handed her a dipping bowl, and the two siblings began to eat.

"Brother, these dumplings taste different. Are they not the same kind of dumplings? What kind of fillings are they?" He Yushui could even taste the different fillings.

"Five kinds of dumplings: celery and pork (my brother likes that), pork and scallion, lamb and shrimp, vegetarian three-delicacy dumplings, and seafood three-delicacy dumplings. Which one do you like?"

"I like them all, including vegetarian dumplings. It seems like we eat dumplings here before the Lunar New Year. What do we eat for the Lunar New Year?" He Yushui had a lot on her mind.

"What do you want to eat for Chinese New Year?"

"Dongpo pork and twice-cooked pork."

"We'll have our New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve. We often eat at restaurants, and now we're craving it again," He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"It's not that I'm craving it, it's that I want to eat it. I've been thinking about it for the past few days." He Yushui spoke like a little adult.

"Nothing to do during the Lunar New Year."

After the Little New Year, ordinary families begin preparing for the Spring Festival. In the past, He Daqing arranged things for the He family, with Sha Zhu running errands.

Emei Restaurant will be open from today until the 29th of the lunar year, and will be closed from New Year's Eve to the 5th of the lunar new year.

During my free time off work, I bought some New Year's supplies. It wasn't much, just three or five commonly used items, including firecrackers and New Year pictures.

"Zhu Zi, from New Year's Eve to noon on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I've taken on eleven clients to prepare banquets at their homes. Are you going?" Master Qi Tianfu asked on the twenty-sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

"Congratulations, Master, on taking on this job. If you're not busy, I don't want to go. It's inconvenient for her to go to other people's houses because she's staying at home and bringing rainwater."

"If you need any help, just say the word, and I'll go," He Yuzhu replied seriously.

"There aren't too many tables to go, ranging from three to five. I was originally planning to take you and Lao Wu so we could both earn a little extra money during the New Year. But it's inconvenient with the rain. You're not short of money, so I'll take Lao Wu instead."

The fourth brother also accepted several tables of food. "By next Chinese New Year, you should be at a level where you've graduated from your apprenticeship, and then you can start making money." The master smiled broadly, in a good mood.

"I understand, I can't go, I'm sorry."

"No need to apologize. You're very kind and responsible towards the rain; you're a good older brother."

"Master, you've done a great job."
