Chapter 6

Stock up! Stock up on gold! Stock up on houses!

Hu Xiaolian was covered in soot from the bottom of the pot.

She was about to scream, but Tie Lanyan hit her with the pot again.

“Shut up! Don’t disturb the peace!”

Seeing her daughter being beaten, Zhang Cui immediately rushed over.

Tie Lanyan swung the iron pot, bang bang bang, she beat her until her eyes were filled with stars.

Then she dragged the escaping Hu Zhuzi back and gave him a beating with the iron pot.

Finally, she didn’t forget to give Hu Xiaolian a few hits in between.

The family was beaten up and scattered, huddled together, not daring to make a sound.

Tie Lanyan asked Zhang Cui: “Are you still going to curse?”

Zhang Cui, who had a pig’s head face, quickly shook her head: “No more, no more!”

Tie Lanyan glanced at Hu Xiaolian: “Who’s the vixen?”

Hu Xiaolian shrunk her neck like a quail: “It’s me.”

Tie Lanyan looked at Hu Zhuzi: “Do you dare to run away again?”

Hu Zhuzi, with a bloodied head, responded tremblingly: “I dare not…”

Wuwuwu, what kind of karma had he encountered, he had actually provoked such a demon.

Fortunately, his little thoughts hadn’t been discovered by her, otherwise his head would definitely be gone.

Tie Lanyan locked the three of them back in the storage room.

“Behave yourselves in there, if you yell again, I’ll come in with a butcher knife.”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Cui and the others’ faces changed drastically.

This woman Tie Lanyan was truly crazy! She actually dared to kill!

Hearing no more noise outside, Hu Xiaolian finally burst into tears:

“Mom, what should we do? I don’t want to be locked up here forever, I’m so scared!”

“Don’t be afraid, Mom will figure something out.”

Zhang Cui hugged her daughter and comforted her softly.

Although the previous incident was a bit off-putting, she still loved her daughter.

Hu Zhuzi, who was beside her, said weakly: “Wife… my head is bleeding again, can you bandage it for me?”

Zhang Cui glared at him: “I don’t care if you live or die, bandage it yourself!”

She hadn’t forgotten what had happened just now, the old man had disappointed her too much.

Hu Xiaolian: “Mom, can you help Dad? He didn’t mean to.”

Her daughter had pleaded, so Zhang Cui didn’t insist anymore.

Hu Zhuzi grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth: “My daughter is still the best to me.”

Hu Xiaolian’s eyes flashed: “Dad, you can’t abandon me next time.”

Hu Zhuzi laughed nervously: “Okay… I won’t next time.”

I ate a lot of delicious food for breakfast, and then I beat up my enemies.

Tie Lanyan was in a very good mood.

She hummed a little tune while preparing to clean the house.

Zhang Cui didn’t like to clean, and Hu Zhuzi and Hu Xiaolian were even worse, the whole house was a mess.

Tie Lanyan first quickly sorted out all of Zhang Cui’s family’s belongings, tied them together, and threw them in the corner of the living room.

Then she slowly cleaned every part of the house.

While cleaning her parents’ room, she found a small iron box on the bedside table, containing her parents’ overt savings.

The largest denomination was 10 yuan, the so-called “Great Unity”, there were 48 in total.

There were also other denominations, a few cents, 1 jiao, 2 jiao, 5 jiao, 1 yuan, 2 yuan, 5 yuan, scattered together, there were about 100 yuan.

These added up to about 500 yuan.

But in the original owner’s memory, there were at least 600 yuan in the box before, and there were also a few ration coupons.

When Zhang Cui first arrived, she hid the iron box under the pretense that the original owner was too young and wouldn’t know how to manage money.

It had only been half a month, and the money had decreased by about 100 yuan, and the ration coupons were gone, they were really quite extravagant.

It was not their own money, so they spent it without any guilt.

Tie Lanyan snorted coldly.

The Tie family had overt savings, naturally, they also had hidden ones.

Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows, it wasn’t easy to make money these days.

Tie Lanyan crawled under the bed and felt around with her hands, pulling out a loose stone slab.

Sure enough, there was a wooden box underneath!

This place was where the original owner’s mother had told her before she passed away.

She had told her that she shouldn’t take out the wooden box unless it was absolutely necessary, for fear of being discovered.

Now that Tie Lanyan had the space, she naturally had to put the wooden box in the space.

Tie Lanyan found a key in a secret compartment on the wall.

She used the key to unlock the lock on the wooden box, and the contents were revealed.

A green-covered property certificate. (See picture)

A bundle of “Great Unity” notes, she counted them, there were 2700 yuan.

Besides that, there was also a letter.

Tie Lanyan didn’t open it for now.

The most urgent thing now was to organize the money, this was her starting capital in this era.

The 1000 yuan from her father’s compensation, the 500 yuan from the iron box, and the 2700 yuan from the wooden box.

A total of about 4200 yuan, all stored in the wooden box, placed in the living room of the bamboo house in the space.

Looking at the white flowers in front of me…

Seeing the money, Tie Lanyan’s eyes lit up.

A few thousand yuan in the 70s was incredibly valuable!

It could even buy a small courtyard, which would be worth tens of millions in the future!

Haha! So cool!

But this wasn’t enough!

There’s a saying, the 70s and 80s were filled with gold.

Since she had come to this era where she could get rich, she had to make a big move.

Tie Lanyan’s goal was clear.

Stock up! Stock up on gold! Stock up on antiques and paintings! Stock up on houses! Not a single one could be missed!

Once she had stocked up enough, she would find a beautiful place with clear mountains and water to enjoy her old age.

Thinking of that beautiful scene, Tie Lanyan was filled with energy.

She sped up her movements and quickly finished cleaning the house.

She had been busy for a while, and it was already noon.

Tie Lanyan’s stomach was also grumbling.

She cooked another pot of egg noodles and ate until her mouth was full of flavor.

After taking a nap, Tie Lanyan decided to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The food at home was almost gone, except for the rice, she had to buy some back, and also make a delicious dinner.

When she went out, Tie Lanyan met Aunt Ma, her neighbor.

As soon as she saw her, Aunt Ma’s face broke into a kind smile:

“Lanyan, I haven’t seen you go out for many days, where are you going?”

Aunt Ma was gentle, she often visited when Tie Lanyan’s parents were alive, the original owner had a good impression of her.

Tie Lanyan: “Hello, Aunt Ma, I’m going to the supply and marketing cooperative.”

Aunt Ma: “Oh, what a coincidence, I’m also going to buy some soy sauce and salt, let’s go together!”
