Siheyuan: Superb comprehension? All skills are perfect

It is effortless to break down large ingredients such as the black bear, which shows its superiority as it comes from the magical world of Chef Boy. It is indeed a good tool.

It took He Yuzhu a long time to deal with the six huge black bears.

It is gratifying that the twenty-four bear paws were intact and undoubtedly top-quality food; moreover, these bears were strong, plump and meaty, with not only a rich layer of fat.

Boiling a large pot of bear oil only consumed a small portion of the fat. According to He Yuzhu's estimation, refining all of this fat into oil would be enough to support him and his sister He Yushui for two or three years without worrying about oil and food.

However, bear oil has a strong fishy smell and is generally not suitable as cooking oil. However, with his outstanding cooking skills, he can completely remove the fishy smell of the whole pot of oil by only using chives, ginger, garlic, onions, celery, peppercorns and star anise, making its aroma even more tempting.

After obtaining a large jar of oil, He Yuzhu exited the dungeon and waited quietly for the settlement.

"You succeeded Savage Black Bear x6, reward 300 experience points."

The information appeared before his eyes.

“The data of the original savage black bear has been recorded in your adventure notes. You can check the relevant information at any time.

"

"The copy verification has been completed, and the statistics are being sorted out..."

"The data is collected. Your comment on this instance is: A fierce battle with full firepower!"

“An additional 3000 experience points and 3000 points were obtained.

"

"In this instance, you received a total of 3300 experience points and 3000 points.

"

“The mission of protecting the cornfield has been completed, and I received a high-quality wooden treasure chest.

"

“After opening the treasure chest, you will randomly receive reward items of quality and level that are not inferior to the treasure chest itself.

"

Looking at the checkout result of Golden Finger, He Yuzhu felt quite relieved.

As for the points, he knew that most of the goods in the mall were just ready-made items in the copies, and repeated purchases would only result in low-end products. Moreover, the value of points was quite strong, so it was not realistic to expect large-scale consumption in the short term.

All in all, he should have had 3700 points, but after purchasing items like rice, he had 3580 points left. It felt like this score was almost comparable to another currency system in reality.

As for the experience points, although I had accumulated a lot from previous clearances, after obtaining 3300 experience points this time, it was enough to improve at least three basic abilities to a high level.

The rule is: 10 points are needed from entry level to initial mastery, 100 points are needed from entry level to slight comprehension, 1000 points are needed from slight comprehension to proficient application, and each subsequent level of promotion requires a 10-fold increase of the previous level.

It seemed that he should upgrade his shooting skill to a high level immediately, but He Yuzhu thought about his thoughts on the Tao Te Ching, and he decided to keep this experience for the time being, leaving it for a greater use in a bookstore or second-hand bookstall in the future.

"

"A new copy is being generated, please wait patiently!"

“The dungeon will be refreshed every 10 days. Please carefully consider the difficulty of the challenge and be fully prepared.

"

Looking at the data in the experience and points columns on the personal interface, He Yuzhu felt more confident.

The few lines of hint at the end made him extremely happy.

He Yuzhu's happiness did not come entirely from the creation of a new copy, or not entirely, but he was more satisfied with the fact that the original copy would be reset after clearing the third difficulty level and only required a 10-day cooldown period.

This means that you can challenge the dungeon at least two or three times a month.

Based on the average scores of 110, 660 and 3300, you can earn more than 8000 experience points and points per month.

Although the points have no immediate use, the 8000 points are of great value! Not to mention that each instance refresh can also bring 7 tusked wild boars, 6 violent black bears, hundreds of acres of corn, and various resource exchange opportunities in the points mall.

Just thinking about this, He Yuzhu felt an incomparably rich sense of pleasure.

This gave him a good sleep.

The next morning, he enjoyed sorghum noodle porridge as usual, complained about the hardships of life, and continued to stuff some delicacies into his sister He Yushui's lunch box, although today it was not the copycat version of roujiamo, but meat buns instead.

The dough has risen perfectly, it is soft and chewy; each bun is filled with meatballs, and it is full of oily fragrance when you take a bite.

Despite He Yuzhu's reminders, He Yushui still had to wash her hands frequently and drank the mountain tea prepared by her brother to try her best to prevent her classmates from smelling the meat she had eaten.

The difference is that compared with his sister's daily life, He Yuzhu did not rush to work at the steel plant today. He first entered the yard where he had dinner yesterday, opened the door with the key given by Zhao Weiguo, and put the promised meat on the kitchen table.

He also put the M2 carbine and the M1918 Thompson automatic, which was a light machine gun, in a storage cabinet, but he kept it, intending to learn some machining skills so that he could perhaps assemble it himself in the future.

Even if your starting point is not high, you can start from the basics, such as modifying an ordinary one to a caliber that suits your needs, and the unused parts can find a use for them.

After confirming that the door and the yard gate were closed, He Yuzhu hurried to the factory, but was still late.

In the past, the security guards would have criticized him or asked for a few cigarettes, but this time they were very enthusiastic and didn't even mention anything about being late. They just let him in and let him enter the factory.

Undoubtedly, this was arranged by Zhao Weiguo.

When they arrived at the back kitchen of the cafeteria, He Yuzhu glanced at Ma Hua, who immediately understood and left. He left the cafeteria on the pretext of going to the toilet and went to the security department to personally tell Zhao Weiguo that the things had been delivered.

The other subsequent steps are none of He Yuzhu's business.

His task was to put the meat and the gun in the yard, and the follow-up would be left to Zhao Weiguo and Ma Wenrui.

The only regret is that the owner of that yard is definitely not willing to sell it.

Even if he wanted to buy it, he would never buy it. He didn't want his residence to become a material circulation center. That would be too dangerous.

After lunch, Ma Hua brought good news: everything went well.

After hearing this information, He Yuzhu's heart finally fell back into his chest.

After all, it's a gun, it would be troublesome if it was lost.

Fortunately, both Zhao Weiguo and Ma Wenrui seemed very reliable, which provided a solid foundation for their future cooperation.

"Hua Zi, do you know where I can buy some old books?"

He Yuzhu asked casually.

Of course if you want to buy new books, you have to go to Xinhua Bookstore, but for those old books, He Yuzhu couldn't find a suitable place for the time being.

"There is a Liulichang in the south of the city!" Ma Hua gave the answer without even thinking.

"Liulichang? Isn't that a place for antique trading?" He Yuzhu asked unconsciously.

“Yes, in fact, old books can be considered antiques.

"Ma Hua explained, "There is a used bookstall in the Dong'an Market near the Xinhua Bookstore in Wangfujing, where you can also find used books."

"Hey, how do you know so much?" He Yuzhu asked with a smile.

“I went there many times when I was a kid, just to read a book for free.

Ma Hua replied with an awkward smile.

"I didn't expect you like studying so much?" He Yuzhu said with a smile.

“No, no, I just read a lot of comic books, and only started reading various miscellaneous books after I learned to read.

“The MCA admitted it frankly.

Compared with Ma Hua, He Yuzhu reflected that his childhood seemed not so happy.

When he was still a child and could play with his peers, he had already followed He Daqing to do business and had no time to go to the used bookstall to read those interesting comics.

As for He Daqing's behavior of selling his own steamed buns, what does that count as? It shouldn't be considered as hiring a farmer, right?

At the end of the workday on Saturday evening, a shocking piece of information suddenly spread in the steel plant.

Jia Dongxu stayed in the hospital for a long time, but he couldn't resist the call of death and left!

"Master, I heard that Jia Dongxu is in the same ward with you, right?" the fat man said as he approached.

“Yes, not only do we live in the same large courtyard, but we are also in the same intermediate ward.

"He Yuzhu nodded. This kind of thing doesn't need to be kept secret, and it can't be concealed.

"Now that Jia Dongxu is gone, won't his wife become a widow?" the fat man asked the next question.

"You're overthinking it. What do you mean by that?" He Yuzhu looked at the fat man with a squint. "What does it have to do with you if she becomes a widow? Are you planning to take advantage of the widow?"

"Absolutely not, don't misunderstand me like that."

The fat man quickly waved his hand to deny it.

He Yuzhu understood the fat man's thoughts and did not give him a chance to speak further.

"People often say 'there is trouble around a widow's door', so don't pry into her private affairs for no reason.

If this gets out, what reputation will you have left?" He scolded with a serious and upright look.

As a master, he said, "What if I was wrongly accused of asking you to say that? What would happen to your reputation?"

“Instead of wasting time gossiping, it is better to calm down and think about how to lay a solid foundation, improve your skills as soon as possible, and strive to become a regular employee as soon as possible. That way, it will be easier to find a job or a partner.

If all else fails, you can also find some odd jobs to help clean up the environment and show your hardworking side."

“Yeah, yeah, that’s right.

“The fat man had no choice but to leave in embarrassment.

Ma Hua couldn't help laughing, but He Yuzhu's eyes warned him to stop smiling.

On the surface, He Yuzhu's attitude towards Ma Hua during this period was not much different from that of Fatty, and he even often ordered him to do some trivial things, but in private, Fatty often teased the two of them with this.

However, when it comes to teaching and imparting knowledge, He Yuzhu gives his all.

Ma Hua was also quite competitive. Unlike the fat man, he did not like to nod around. Instead, he held a wok filled with sand and practiced flipping the wok. Every time he cleaned the wok spotlessly, he even cleared away the dust and dirt accumulated on the bottom.

He Yuzhu was very satisfied with this apprentice.

But he was not in a hurry to formally accept a disciple. After all, he still had to live in Compound No. 95, and it was safer to keep a low profile. After all, did he really have to kill off those troublesome people in the house one by one?

A more direct and safer option than getting rid of them is to relocate them.

He Yuzhu once entrusted Zhao Weiguo and Ma Wenrui to find a separate small courtyard, but although they helped with the search, they failed for various reasons, and He Yuzhu himself was not in a hurry to move.

He also greeted Director Wang of the Street Office, who expressed his willingness to assist. However, in places like Nanluoguxiang, although there were small private courtyards, the smallest one had to be a large courtyard that was three yards deep.

The house is still adequate after more than 60 years, but once a special situation arises, such a conspicuous large yard will cause unnecessary trouble.

What's more, the courtyards here are densely populated, and even though No. 95 Courtyard is a little far away from Nanluoguxiang, it is still within their field of vision.

He Yuzhu knew the nature of those villains very well. Once they knew that He Yuzhu was living a good life, they would never give up.

In particular, Liu Haiyang, Yan Bugui, Xu Damao, Jia Zhangshi, Qin Hailanru and others may report him secretly at special moments.

This type of people have evil intentions. They don't want others to get what they can't get, and other people's happiness is a trouble to them.

As the workday was getting close, He Yuzhu followed the crowd toward the factory gate as usual. On the way, he heard some discussions from time to time. It turned out that many workers were discussing the topic of the death of Jia Dongxu from workshop 1.

What’s funny is that most male employees don’t care about Jia Dongxu’s death, but are instead worried about Qin Hailanru’s life.

When the workers who have met Qin Hailanru talk about her, their expressions can only be described as drooling.

“No wonder she was able to make great progress so quickly after entering the factory. It turns out that she was already so famous before she even entered the factory.

"

"So, with Jia Dongxu's departure, Qin Hailanru will have to get an IUD after giving birth to her second child.

It seemed like this was a premeditated act.

"

It is not surprising that He Yuzhu had such an idea. In the early 1960s or in 2023 when he lived, most women would reject contraceptive rings.

Many people would rather take medication to avoid it.

So, what were the factors that prompted Qin Hailanru to choose to have a sterilization immediately?

In his opinion, there are two possibilities: either she wanted to consolidate her urban identity and did not want to be tied down by her child, so she got an IUD inserted in order to allay Jia Zhang's concerns and promise her that she had no intention of remarrying.

But this method is not very likely, after all, even if the IUD is inserted, it can be removed.

If Qin Hailanru really finds new support and wants to change her original intention, this threat alone will not be enough to restrain her.

Another possibility is that Qin Hailanru is aware of her situation.

The elders in the family need to be taken care of, and the young children are lazy and gluttonous. In this era where people are grateful for being able to fill their stomachs with simple meals, the Jia family always hopes to live a life with meat and fine grains.

Under such conditions, borrowing money is necessary to survive.

However, debts must be repaid. What should we do if we don't pay them back? Obviously, we can only compensate them.

But this is risky and can lead to pregnancy.

In this helpless situation, IUD placement becomes the most appropriate solution.

He Yuzhu was not willing to think of Qin Hailanru in an extreme way. As long as her living environment improved and she stopped blindly listening to Jia Zhang and Banggen, she could still survive even if she only received 27 yuan of living expenses per month.

Some people may suggest that Qin Hailanru herself did not eat well because Jia Zhang and Banggen consumed too much, but this cannot constitute an explanation.

Because if she really didn't eat well, it would be impossible for her to maintain a plump figure given her hard work in the front-line workshop.

“It’s not about the money, it’s about the money.”

Zhao Weiguo smiled slightly, "Although there are indeed more game in the mountains, the danger is also greater.

I heard that there are rumors of tigers in Mentougou. Oh, tigers, maybe it would be safer to take more precautions. "

He Yuzhu took a look at the small package and roughly estimated in his mind that even the most conservative estimate was that there were at least hundreds of them.

Obviously, the person who needs the bear bile is extremely important, otherwise Zhao Weiguo would not have taken the initiative to provide such a large quantity.

"Uncle Zhao, since you are involved, there is no need to be polite."

As He Yuzhu was speaking, he took the small package and shook it. It was quite heavy, definitely more than 100 rounds. He would know the exact number after he went back to count them.

"

Uncle Zhao, do you have a lot of inventory?"

He Yuzhu asked with some curiosity.

The security of state-owned factories in this era was very strong, and they were equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns, large artillery, and even heavy armored vehicles as weapons.

In comparison, the shabby equipment in the police station is nothing to mention.

", our factory does not have any inventory, but we do have large-caliber artillery."

Zhao Weiguo smiled and added, "There are also anti-aircraft machine guns. If you are interested, I will let you try them out when the opportunity arises. Anyway, there are some that need to be cleaned up every year, and it would be a waste if they are left idle."
