Courtyard House: Passing through the Silly Pillar, Activating the Blessed Cave Heaven

"Is there anything else? If not, you can head back now."

"Brother Zhu, these are the accounts for the past few days. Please take a look." Zhang Hu handed over an account book.

He was the oldest of the six, had neat handwriting, and was reliable and steady in his work, so He Yuzhu put him in charge of the accounts.

"You guys go back first," He Yuzhu said without looking up as he flipped through the account books.

After the other five people said goodbye and left, He Yuzhu carefully checked the accounts: a total of 18 hens, 200 catties of eggs, and 300 catties of corn were sold this week, with a total income of 166 million yuan.

The accounts and the money matched perfectly, and he signed the ledger. Only a detailed account sheet could clearly record the amount of his wealth. Then, thinking about the future, he felt overjoyed, and couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"Brother Zhu, what should I say if the landlord asks how long I want to sign the lease?" Zhang Hu asked.

"Sign for two years first."

By the way, are you twenty years old this year? The newly enacted marriage law stipulates that you can get married if you're twenty or older. Is there a girl you've got your eye on?

"Not yet. I want to save more money before considering marriage," Zhang Hu said, scratching his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Alright, you can go back now."

Marriage is indeed something that needs to be carefully considered.

I'll see you out and lock the door behind me. I need to go back and get some sleep too.

After seeing Zhang Hu off, He Yuzhu locked the gate from inside the courtyard.

Back in the house, he didn't rest, but went straight into the blessed land.

Standing on the stone steps of the Wuji Hall, he gazed at the boundless grassland before him.

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

It's been five years since I arrived in this parallel world in the winter of 1946...

At the beginning of the year, the child who was not quite grown up has now grown into a handsome young man who is over 1.8 meters tall.

Although he was only fifteen years old, the strength of his body was far better than in his previous life, which made him feel gratified from the bottom of his heart.

His appearance was outstanding, making him unforgettable at first glance, just like the saying goes, "A gentleman as beautiful as jade, unparalleled in the world."

What's even more remarkable is that he possesses unique skills that others don't have; he is proficient in cooking several cuisines, including Shandong cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, and Tan family cuisine.

What he was most proud of was his enviable height; in that era, he was truly a towering figure.

He couldn't help but worry whether his wife would be able to handle it in the future.

If this kind of trouble happened in Wu Zetian's era, with her qualifications, she could at least get a seventh-rank official position.

It's just that irresistible charm!

Pulling himself out of his reverie, He Yuzhu turned his gaze to the livestock leisurely grazing on the grassland.

It was time to collect eggs again. He carried the bamboo basket he had woven himself on his back and walked towards the meadow.

After several years of dedicated management, although the number of animals such as sika deer and roe deer in Fudi Cave has not reached the initial target, the number of other livestock has far exceeded the plan: more than 300 pigs, more than 100 sheep, more than 1,000 hens, and more than 500 ducks, all of them are plump and strong.

It took him a full half hour to collect all the eggs from the hundreds of nests.

Every time he collected eggs, he was particularly envious of those time travelers who could "collect them with one click".
