Chapter 7, The Dilapidated Yard

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Jiang Yan lightly dressed up, packed up his bed, and prepared to go out.

At this time, Grandma Lu, who was sleeping in the bedroom, also woke up, and as soon as she came out of the bedroom, she saw Jiang Yan who was about to leave. So he asked, eldest grandson, why did you get up so early! Where are you going?

Hearing Grandma Luo's words, Jiang Yan replied, Grandma, I have to go out to practice martial arts.

The master often said that the plan of the day lies in the morning, and the practice of martial arts is to practice in winter and summer, and you can't be lazy for a moment. After I am done, I will go out for a walk, look at the situation in this neighborhood, and feel the situation in this alley, I will live and do things here in the future, and I will not be able to do it if I am not familiar with the road. By the way, grandma, don't cook me the morning meal, I'll eat a little outside, grandma, do you need me to bring some back.

No need to remove it and bring it to me, wait for me, after saying this, Grandma Lu turned around and returned to her bedroom.

You take these, go out and buy more delicious things, don't save money, grandma, I have money, besides, if you don't spend it, it's worthless, Grandma Luo, who came out of the house, took two steps of money and handed it directly to Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan, who didn't want to take the money handed over by Grandma Lu, heard Grandma Lu say that the money was worthless, and wondered a little in his heart, what the hell, is the money worthless.

When he saw these two piles of money, he understood that this money was really not worth much.

The money handed over by Grandma Lu was nothing else, it was legal tender issued by the government.

To say that these two piles of money are really a lot, each of which is a denomination of 10,000 yuan, and this pile is estimated to have 100 pieces, a total of 1 million yuan, so the two piles are 2 million.

According to the purchasing power of the current fiat currency, these two piles of money will also have a breakfast later.

In fact, when this fiat currency was first issued, the purchasing power was still quite strong, and one yuan of fiat currency was equivalent to a piece of the ocean. When Mr. Lu Xun was a professor in Sijiucheng at that time, it was only more than 100 yuan of legal currency. That's enough for a good life for the family.

It's just that after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, because the government lost most of the territory, the finances were tight, so it issued a large scale of fiat currency to make up for the fiscal deficit, and in addition to the small book in order to bring down the government's finances to make a large number of counterfeit money, the fiat currency continued to depreciate, and the purchasing power of the fiat currency was 10,000 times different than before, so this money is not worth at all.

Seeing this fiat currency, Jiang Yan suddenly thought of another thing, it is now June, if he remembers correctly, the Liaoshen Battle is now being fought.

In other words, in order to solve the fiscal problem, two months later, in August, the government began to carry out currency reform, and sold gold yuan bills to replace fiat currency.

This gold yuan coupon is a rather legendary thing, the strong time only lasted about half a month, and then due to the surge in war funds, the government broke through the total limit of 2 billion yuan issued gold yuan bills, coupled with the soaring prices caused by hyperinflation, so that the issuance speed of gold yuan bonds is much higher than the issuance speed of legal tender, and its issuance and printing are like a flood that bursts the embankment, and the total amount of its issuance is almost in the form of astronomical figures in front of the world. Since then, the value of the gold yuan has continued to depreciate at a faster rate than that of fiat currency.

Large numbers of the middle class went bankrupt and finances became more chaotic, setting the stage for the government's failure.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan said to Grandma Lu, grandma, how much fiat currency is in your hand.

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Grandma Lu was stunned for a moment, and then said indifferently, there are two big boxes! Why is this money not enough, if it is not enough, grandma is getting you a little, and she is going to go back to the house to get money for Jiang Yan.

It's not grandma, you listen to me, Jiang Yan grabbed Grandma Lu who was about to go back to the house to get money for Jiang Yan.

Then he said, grandma, I have money, look at this is the five silver dollars and silver quills that my master gave me, I just want to say, why did you leave so much fiat currency, it is better to exchange it for the ocean, even if it is a foreign currency.

This thing is depreciating too quickly, and the longer you keep it in your hand, the less valuable it becomes.

After listening to Jiang Yan's words, Grandma Lu sighed and said, I don't know that the ocean is stronger than this fiat currency, and grandma's money is all rent given by tenants, so what can they do for these grandma.

But grandson, don't worry, grandma secretly changed a little bit of the ocean and the little goldfish, but these are worthless, and the ones I saved are enough for our grandparents and grandchildren to live for several years, I believe we will liberate here.

Hearing Grandma Lu's words, Jiang Yan didn't know what to say for a while, but he felt that it was not easy for him to recognize this grandmother, and his vision was quite vicious, so he took into account his own retreat.

Jiang Yan pondered in his heart, and said to Grandma Lu, Grandma, so you are getting me a little fiat currency, and I will find a way to exchange them all for the current ocean and materials that can be stored, so as to reduce our losses a little.

Good grandson, don't go, it's still too dangerous to bring so much money, just leave it here if it's okay! After speaking, he touched Jiang Yan's head.

It's okay, grandma, it's okay for your grandson and I to follow my master to travel from south to north, you can rest assured that it's safe, and what's wrong with me going to the black market to explore the way, in case our army needs something, I'm good to get it, even if it can't solve too big a problem, I can help a little bit.

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Grandma Lu thought for a moment, got up and went to the house and took out more than a dozen stacks of money and handed it to Jiang Yan, at this time Jiang Yan found that the denomination of the money had changed again, and the largest denomination was 100,000 yuan.

Seeing this denomination, Jiang Yan was completely speechless, this is the rhythm of Zimbabwe.

In order to make it easier to carry, Jiang Yan put the money into a bag and carried it directly to himself, collapsed the coarse cloth bag full of money, said hello to Grandma Luo and left the house.

As soon as he arrived in the middle courtyard, he met Yi Zhonghai, who was supposed to come back from going to the toilet outside, and when he saw Jiang Yan, he asked, little guy, why are you going, does your grandma know?

My grandmother knew, so I went to find a place to practice martial arts.

Hearing Jiang Yan's answer, Yi Zhonghai was surprised, and said, I can't see it! You're still a practitioner.

If you don't have a little martial arts, how can you follow others all the way to this Sijiu City, Uncle Yi came back, and after speaking, Jiang Yan walked out of the middle courtyard without looking back, and left the courtyard directly.

There were already a lot of people on the road in the early morning, but there were not too many pedestrians on the road.

After walking for a while, Jiang Yan saw a dilapidated small courtyard, the iron lock on the gate of the courtyard had rusted, and it looked like no one had lived in it for a long time.

This should be a courtyard that enters the courtyard, this courtyard is not big, looking at about more than 600 square meters, there are only six rooms in the courtyard, the ear room, the east and west wing rooms and the inverted seat room, the main house is about 70 square meters at most, and the wing room and the inverted seat room are only thirty or forty square meters in area, the most satisfying thing for Jiang Yan is that the east wall seems to be next to Grandma Luo's backyard.

Maybe because no one has lived in it for too long, the doors of the rooms have rotted a lot, and the roofs have collapsed in some places, at this time Jiang Yan is thinking about how he can get his hands on this house.

After looking at the whole room, Jiang Yan directly entered his own space, found two bottles of milk and bread and ate them.

I don't know if it's the reason for my own crossing, Jiang Yan found that he seems to have a much better memory, has a ability to remember, and the strength in his body has also grown a lot, he experimented with it before, and now he can easily pick up a bag of rice weighing fifty kilograms.

But correspondingly, my food has also increased a lot, and when I was woken up by hunger in the middle of the night last night, I secretly added a meal in the space.
