Stomp on the Journey (17) (https://www.clewxc.com/book/202108/23/12973.html first release) (Stomp on the Journey (17) this house...)

Return to the journey(17)

The two of them bought the house directly for 800 without any counter-offer.

The black lacquered furniture is ready for use after being washed and rinsed. All you need to buy are daily necessities and bedding. After getting familiar with the surrounding environment, it took a few days to get settled in the house.

Then Tongtong discovered that the silver dollar seemed not to be worth much nowadays.

I went out to buy some rice today and thought about saving more food. This is not wrong. Nowadays, hiding food is more reliable than hiding other things.

Like rice, I want to buy more. It turns out that this calculation is wrong! She remembered two years ago, how much was a silver dollar worth at that time? Anyway, when she went to the grain store to ask about the price, one silver dollar bought forty-four kilograms.

You can buy rice. Although the rice is not very good, it is 44 pounds, right?

But when I came here today, I weighed it and found that it weighed only about forty kilograms, and it actually cost two silver dollars.

She also asked the waiter, "How many pounds is this?"

I don't dare ask you for a price, "This is forty-eight pounds."

One silver dollar can only buy twenty-four kilograms of rice!

Although this is due to the fact that other costs are small in small counties and high in capital cities, the price has increased a bit too much.

In the past two years in the county town, she has not gone to the grain store for this piece of food. The Li family has asked their shop to deliver it. Sometimes the bill is paid every three to four months, and sometimes it is paid every six months. You have to ask for details.

How many kilograms of rice can be bought with one silver dollar? She really doesn’t know.

Now that I have realized it, my heart skips a beat: It’s so expensive!

Tongtong came back and did the calculations, and discussed with Fourth Master, "In the future, try to exchange for gold. For convenience, use part of it to exchange for U.S. dollars. Silver dollars... can't be used!"

But the silver dollar is already a currency that most people think can preserve its value!

Si Ye responded, indicating that he had remembered it, and made another note in his notebook. Prices can reflect many problems.

Tongtong didn't know what Si Ye was thinking. Anyway, she had to make plans to live her life.

The two of them live at home and don't dare to eat haise. It's just like ordinary people's lives. Counting three meals a day, their living expenses are less than fifteen yuan a month. They can't go out and buy fruits and other things. Although it's big

In some cases it is not available.

"We still have to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Otherwise, we will have nothing to offer and life will not be easy."

Si Ye was not in a hurry, "Wait a little longer and wait for news about Li Bomin. I will go out tomorrow and send a telegram to Mr. Cai to inform him of our address for easy contact."

Well! It works!

Setting up a home is not easy. Even if you say it's okay, it's okay, but there are always things that need to be tidied up.

Today, the two of them finally managed to tidy up the house so well that they could take a look at it. Then they took a look at the dates in the yard. They didn't do anything. They just broke the dates at home and ate them slowly in the sun.

It's been half an hour since I put it away, but finally a guest came to the house.

I thought it was someone from the guild hall in front, but I never expected that it was Li Tongtong and Shen Shujuan.

Li Tongtong is the youngest of the Li family and Li Bomin's younger brother. He is similar in age to Si Ye. Shen Shujuan is the young lady of the Shen family. The two of them were arranged by the family and got married last year. After they got married, the two came.

Beijing, after coming to Beijing, I didn’t know much about them.

Li Tingtong followed Si Ye inside and said as he walked: "We went to Xiangjiang. Before you came to the capital, my eldest brother didn't contact us or arrange for us to pick you up. No, Qian'er just came back.

, my eldest brother’s telegram came after me.” As soon as he entered the house, he took it out of his bag and said, “Here are five gold bars, two thousand US dollars.” After saying that, he pushed it over and said, “My brother said what is this.

You need to withdraw the deposit from me first and deliver it to you. I can’t figure out what you are talking about, but my brother is in Shanghai and said that he will come to the capital in half a month at most. Then he will bring some people with him.

Come, let’s talk about it in detail.” After that, he asked curiously, “What exactly is it?”

Phew! What’s so mysterious about this? It’s just a drawing of a Chinese character typewriter.

Li Tingtong let out an ouch, "My brother is probably negotiating this deal with He Xiping, a businessman from Nanyang! Don't be polite when asking for a price from this person. He is very wealthy. The shipyards and car dealers in Nanyang are all his family's business."

Lin Yutong didn't listen to what the two said, and Shen Shujuan took her to the garden to talk, "...men day by day, it's either their future or their business, or else their fate. This guy in my family is the same, he has a sharp mind.

Hot, the whole day was spent in this reading group and that seminar. I came back the other day and was away from home all day yesterday. I was dragged to some meeting again. I said you should either go into business or find a job.

Position, can we live a good life? As a result, we can’t study hard, and we don’t have a business future. We just have to work with a group of people day by day. Now we still rely on family support to live. But

We can't always follow the uncle's side without breaking up, right? I'm so worried!" She glanced in and said, "This one in your family is different. He is much more pragmatic and only focuses on making money. Isn't that good?

of?"

Tongtong smiled and said nothing. Nowadays, the world is changing fast, and people are changing fast. Just reading the newspapers will tell you that the literati have their own opinions in various quarrels. Of course, he and Si Ye... also have their own ideas.

. Just like some newspapers and periodicals that make people feel very friendly after reading them, and some newspapers and periodicals that people read, they can’t help but want to refute and complain. This kind of thing already speaks volumes!

Of course, Si Ye felt that this kind of thing could only be used as a reference. This was not something to be anxious about.

Especially for some positions, it is appropriate not to express your position in a hurry! Keep some things in your heart and watch the development of the situation. This is the greatest preservation. Whether it is for yourself, others, or yourself in the future.

Everything you have to do is a kind of preservation.

The road is to be walked gropingly, Siye means: cautious, low-key, not showing one's head.

This is also his consistent style.

Tongtong nodded in agreement with this view. Nowadays, even if he wants to be high-profile, he can't be high-profile, and he may not have a chance to show his face. The only word is to be cautious.

She skipped the topic and asked, "What about you? Didn't you say you came here to take the college entrance exam? Didn't you continue studying?"

"Women's Normal University." Shen Shujuan shook her head, "I went there for less than a year, and then... I didn't want to study anymore."

Why?

"The school is a mess, and it's not a place to study." Shen Shujuan sighed, "There are also some female students in the class who are particularly active, holding various assemblies, and giving lectures... I feel like I am out of tune with them."

Tongtong smiled, "It's not wrong to want to live a good life."

Shen Shujuan said: "That's right! I think national affairs are important matters that those big people have to consider. Everyone wants to change for the better, right? No matter how anxious you are, can it be changed in a moment?

"

Although it can't be changed in an instant, even if it takes one year, two years, ten years or eight years, there will always be some benefits because of this kind of promotion. Let alone those brave girls who dare to stand up and make their voices heard, you

How can I study in a girls' school?

Tongtong sighed, thinking that she and the current Shen Shujuan should not be considered people who could go together all the way.

I could talk to her about the past, my hometown, my family's shortcomings, and my romantic affairs, but I couldn't talk about deeper things.

Tongtong felt a bit pity, she actually hoped to become friends.

Knowing this, she stopped talking about outside matters and just asked: "What are you going to do in the future?"

"I originally thought about going to Xiangjiang to settle down, but when I got there, my family member couldn't calm down. It seems that some societies or others are quite active there. Especially the strikes are very evil.

I see that there is chaos everywhere, so why not come back! Let’s talk about it when we come back.” Shen Shujuan frowned, “As for the future, there are some women’s organizations, such as the rescue society, and I still hope to go out and do some social work.

Activity."

Tongtong nodded, "Very good! Just do whatever you have to do."

The two of them were talking, and Tongtong was the one who kept asking, and she was talking happily. It was the same before, she talked more often. Then she continued talking happily until Li Pingtong said goodbye and came out, and then she was very happy.

He said happily, "Let's talk some other time."

"What are you talking about?" Li Tingping asked Shen Shujuan as they sat in the car, "It's rare to say that you are so happy."

Shen Shujuan said: "It's nothing, just chatting."

How can there be so much gossip? Li Tingping asked, "You didn't say whether you will go to school or find an errand in the future?"

"Aren't you still in school? I just said you are in school."

Li Tongtong: "..." Are you just talking about us? "What about others? What are their plans?"

Shen Shujuan shook her head, "She didn't say that!"

Li Tingtong: "..." This man really has nothing to say.

There was a bookstore in front of her, and Shen Shujuan shouted: "Stop!"

The driver stopped the car, and she quickly ran to the bookstore. After a while, she came out and bought a few books.

Li Tingtong glanced at it and saw that it was another novel, "...you just like the tone of Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies, it's kitsch!"

Shen Shujuan hugged the book in her arms: "Let me reiterate on this topic, I don't care what you like, but you don't interfere with what I like, okay?"

Then the car was silent, no one spoke.

Siye and Tongtong, no matter what faction they belong to, they are pragmatic. Just like now, with so much money, put it away and save it! You can't be extravagant and extravagant. If you have more money, you will have more in the future. Who knows?

What will happen next?

Tongtong asked, "It sounds like Mr. Li is very active outside."

Siye said 'hmm', "He is dissatisfied with the current warlord melee situation and hopes to end it in a revolutionary way. He feels that Mr. Sun's attitude towards Russia is a good start."

Tongtong was speechless and only sighed: "The situation is ever-changing and it's hard to explain."

Who says it’s not!

Si Ye said: "So, now we must try to make something that can be used no matter how the situation changes before the chaos. We must hurry up on wireless telegraphy."

But where can I find information? It’s so difficult! There is basically no such information in China.

If you don’t have good resources, you won’t be able to get in touch at all!

Si Ye's expression changed, "If it's for this, then what if you don't keep a low profile?"

Tongtong was a little surprised: Si Ye seemed to be too eager.

Will the situation really take a turn for the worse?

Siye was speechless, but turned around and handed Tongtong a history book, "Now that you have time, look through it again..."
