The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 46
Back in the courtyard, the two of them made big and small bags, which aroused the envy of every family in the courtyard.

Li Weiguo, a bachelor with a high salary and no affordability, dared to spend such money. If he had gone to another family, his legs would have been broken long ago.

Too bad to live, commit a crime!
The children in the courtyard swarmed around Li Weiguo's door, stretching their necks to look inside, hoping to see if there was anything good.

Seeing the eager expressions of the helpers, I couldn't bear to drive them away, so I gave each of them two candies and sent them home.

After sending away the gang of brats, Li Weiguo took out everything. When he went to eat at noon, he had to take out what came to the door first.

Take some of each canned meat, canned fruit, biscuits, milk powder, and candies, and then some meat will be enough. It is considered a big gift.

Then he took out another plate and picked out some of all kinds of snacks.

"Yu Yu, this plate is for you as a snack. Come and get it after you finish eating." Li Weiguo handed a plate of snacks to Yu Yu.

After taking the plate, the girl Yushui was so happy that her eyes gleamed: "Wow~ Thank you Brother Wei, there are so many things, I have never eaten them, so happy O(∩_∩)O~"

Li Weiguo smiled and said: "Silly girl, if you want to eat it, we will buy it later so that you can eat as much as you like."

Yu Yu picked up a candied fruit and put it into his mouth, squinting his eyes and looking satisfied: "One time is enough. It's so luxurious. I can eat so much for a long time."

At [-]:[-] a.m., Di’an. Men Post. Political branch of the family courtyard

Li Weiguo went straight to Zhou Can's house with the prepared gifts, two catties of pork belly and a white chicken from the space.

Zhou Can's family is assigned a 65-square-meter apartment on the third floor.

Well, the actual usable area is 65 square meters and there are no public stalls.

The three of us played well when we were children, and Li Weiguo and Zhao Guobing often came here to play.

I went up to the third floor with ease, and the first one on the left was the one, so I went over and knocked on the door.

"coming."

A slightly affluent woman in her 40s came and opened the door. It was Zhou Can's mother.

"Weiguo is here. Come in and sit down. Zhou Can and Guobing are waiting for you in the room."

"Hi Auntie, I haven't seen you since then. You are getting younger and younger. This is a gift for you." Li Weiguo greeted politely and handed over the things in his hand.

Zhou Can's mother patted him reproachfully: "Your child, the older you get, the more mature you are. What else do you bring? Auntie doesn't lack anything. You are not allowed to bring anything next time. Come in and sit down."

After speaking, he took the things and glanced at them.

Be good, about two catties of pork belly, a white striped chicken, a box of golden chicken biscuits, a catty of fruit candy and several canned fruits, this gift is quite important.

Zhou Can's mother was secretly surprised, but without saying anything, she hurriedly welcomed him into the house.

In the living room, Dad Zhou is sitting there reading a newspaper.

Li Weiguo stepped forward and said, "Uncle Zhou, long time no see."

Father Zhou is in his 40s, six months pregnant, slightly bald, and has a kind face.

Seeing Li Weiguo coming, he put down the newspaper and greeted him: "Weiguo is here, come and sit down, you will join the army and come back in a blink of an eye, time flies so fast."

"Yeah, I haven't seen you for three years, but Uncle Zhou still looks the same."

"What style, it's not like that, hahaha."

"Come, Weiguo, drink some water."

At this time, Zhou's mother brought a glass of water to Li Weiguo, and then shouted to Zhou Can who was in the room: "Xiao Can, Weiguo is here."

Zhou Can, who heard the voice, quickly came out of his bedroom: "Weiguo, you are here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Hey. It's the weekend, don't sleep late."

"That's right, if it weren't for today's party, I wouldn't be able to get up, hahaha. Let's go to my room to chat. The soldiers and I are studying my collection. Parents, let's go in and play for a while." Zhou Chan laughed.

Mother Zhou nodded and said, "Okay, young people, let's play, and I'll cook for you right now."

As soon as he entered Zhou Can's house.

I saw Zhao Guobing and the second son of the Zhou family, Zhou Bo, studying the comics with great interest.

One is 19 years old and the other is 13. They can get addicted to reading comic books.
Li Weiguo came in to see the two of them with great interest, and said speechlessly: "Hey, I thought it was a baby, it turned out to be a comic book. I read it every day when I was in school, and I'm not tired of it now."

Zhao Guobing: "How can you get tired of it? Feelings! Do you understand feelings?"

Zhao Guobing is right. Comic books are definitely the favorite of children in this era. One or two books can be shown off for a long time.

Li Weiguo shrugged, saying that the Traveling Party did not understand their feelings.

"Yes, it's feelings. Xiaobo is here too."

"Brother Wei." Zhou Bo, the second son of the Zhou family, greeted with a smile.

Zhou Can and Zhou Bo shared a room with a double iron frame bed, two desks, and a large bookshelf was built on the wall next to the desk, filled with various books.

Zhao Guobing and Zhou Bo placed a pile of comic strips in front of them, all of which were collected by the two brothers Zhou Can.

What is it like: Anait, Ever Victorious, Crow Turns White Crow, Mu Guiying Female Generals Team, Qiaoji Bombing Tanks are about [-] or [-] books, and the books are not the same.

Li Weiguo picked up a book, flipped through it casually, and joked, "It's really a lot, you two brothers' pocket money, it's all in here."

"Hey, almost." Zhou Can smiled proudly.

Li Weiguo rolled his eyes at him and did not comment on their hobbies. He was not a local and did not understand their feelings.

At Zhou Bo's age, let alone comics, the little Huangshu is tired of reading them, so there is nothing unusual about them.

He put down the comic strip in his hand and looked at the various books on the shelf.

what.?

Li Weiguo was attracted by a large stack of envelopes on the bookshelf.

"Zhou Can, why do you have so many envelopes?" Li Weiguo asked, pointing to the pile of envelopes.

"Oh, those, those are letters that have not been picked up by the post office for a long time. It has been a long time, and they were supposed to be processed. I thought it was fun, so I kept some of them. I just left them there and forgot to throw them away. .” Zhou Can explained.

Li Weiguo picked up a few letters and looked at them. Many of the dates on the letters were 55 years ago, and even before the founding of the People's Republic of China. The letters had been opened, but most of the stamps on them were intact.

Hey. Stamps!

The stamp on the envelope immediately attracted Li Weiguo's attention.

This is a letter after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The envelope retains the previous blue-gray stamp, which is written in traditional characters: China. .Government, one hundred yuan.

This is the first commemorative stamp issued after the founding of the People's Republic of China, with four denominations of 30 yuan, 50 yuan, 100 yuan and 200 yuan.

This face value is based on the value of the first type of RMB, which is almost 10000:1 with the second type of RMB currently in use.

There are many stamps issued, and the collection price of later generations is around a few hundred yuan.

Yes, stamps!Li Weiguo was like an enlightenment.

At this time, there was no custom of collecting stamps, and few people collected stamps. Many rare stamps were destroyed due to careless preservation.

If you don't understand antiques, why don't you understand stamps?
It doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as you know which are rare species in advance.

You can collect some of them.

The more Li Weiguo thought about it, the more excited he became. That's right, collecting stamps is definitely a very good investment channel.

Immediately said: "Zhou Can, I like the stamps on these envelopes, do you want more?"

Zhou Can wondered, "They're all used. What do you want them for? If you want them, I'll go to the post office and get you some unused ones."

Li Weiguo waved his hand and said: "No, I just like old ones and collect them for fun."

New ones are of course good, but used letters can also be collected, as long as they are rare enough, they are also very valuable for collection.

Zhou Can waved his hand indifferently: "Okay, if you like it, you can take it. Keeping it will take up space, and I don't lack these things." After finishing speaking, he took the stack of old letters from the shelf and handed them to Li Weiguo.

"Okay, thanks."

What a good brother. When he gets rich in the future, he will take more care of Zhou Can without taking advantage of him. At least he will help him survive the storm of ten years.
