Reborn as a capitalist's young master in the 1970s, he starts his life by being blocked at the

In front of the cold storage gate, an old gatekeeper wearing a thick cotton-padded coat was dozing off. He was a little unhappy when he was woken up.

He raised his eyelids slightly and said irritably, "This is a state-owned cold storage facility. It's not a place where you can just put things anywhere. Don't you understand the rules?"

Chen Jianming didn't mind, took out a dollar and stuffed it into the old man's hand, saying with a smile, "Please be lenient, sir. I'm a purchasing agent from the steel mill. I just bought half a wild boar meat. It'll go bad if I wait until tomorrow."

After saying that, he took out a cigarette and handed it over.

At current prices, storing half a pig would cost at most a few cents.

However, he had just seized the gang's slush fund and received a reward, so he was in a very good mood and didn't care about this small amount of money.

The gatekeeper's attitude changed immediately after receiving the money. He nodded with a smile and said, "Young man, you know how to handle things. Come in."

He then pushed open the cold storage door and helped carry half a wild boar meat inside.

The cold storage was filled with a lot of meat. Even Chen Jianming, who is physically strong, was rubbing his hands because of the cold after entering.

I found a spot, put the pork down, and quickly ran out.

The gatekeeper took out paper and pen, wrote out a certificate, and handed it over: "Just bring this certificate to pick up the pork tomorrow."

"Alright, sir, see you later."

Chen Jianming gave a shout and leisurely rode away on his tricycle.

"This silly boy is still happy. This dollar is like a freebie, hehe, I have money to buy wine today."

The gatekeeper grinned from ear to ear as he looked at the one-yuan coin in his hand.

At the Chen family compound, Zhang Lu, having specially applied red lipstick and drawn her eyebrows, stood anxiously waiting in front of the gate, glancing outside every now and then.

She pondered to herself: Xiao Chen went to the police station to collect a reward, why hasn't he come back yet?

"Oh, sister-in-law, we're waiting for Brother Liu to get off work. Brother Liu is so lucky."

As darkness fell, people passing by on their way home from work greeted each other.

"Yeah, who else would I wait for but you?" Zhang Lu replied absentmindedly.

"I'm not so lucky!" the man joked with a laugh and walked away.

As more and more people finished work and Liu the carpenter was about to return, Zhang Lu's eyes grew increasingly disappointed.

"Looks like Xiao Chen isn't going to have a good time today. He was a real man when he was catching those thugs!"

Thinking of this made her blush and her heart race.

After waiting for a long time, he still didn't see anyone, so he could only shake his head and go back to the house with a disappointed look.

No sooner had she left than Chen Jianming carried two roast ducks into the yard, having already stored the tricycle away in a secluded spot.

I caught a thief today and recovered a large sum of stolen money, so I definitely have to treat myself.

Just then, Liu the carpenter rode over from outside, with two bottles of liquor hanging on his bicycle. He greeted him repeatedly, "Brother Chen."

Chen Jianming nodded: "Brother Liu, you just got back?"

"That's right, they get up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than the dogs every day, and they still earn so little."

Carpenter Liu grumbled, then said enthusiastically, "Little Chen, I bought two more bottles of wine today. Want to come to my place and get some more?"

"No, Brother Liu, I'm a bit tired today. Let's do it another day."

Chen Jianming waved his hands repeatedly; he didn't want to do it again in front of Liu the carpenter.

I really don't have that kind of special hobby.

Carpenter Liu was somewhat disappointed, but then suddenly leaned closer mysteriously and said, "Little Chen, let me tell you, alcohol is really a wonderful thing. Last time we drank together, I discovered a big secret."

Chen Jianming's heart pounded wildly. Had this guy found out?

He maintained a calm demeanor on the surface, tentatively asking, "What secret?"

Carpenter Liu, holding his bicycle, looked around and chuckled, "I've discovered that alcohol makes me stronger. That time, your sister-in-law was incredibly gentle with me the next day. I'm telling you, I don't usually tell this to just anyone."

Chen Jianming had a strange expression and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Judging from how certain Liu the carpenter was, if he hadn't been there and experienced it firsthand, he probably would have believed it.

Seeing how convinced the other person was, he couldn't bear to expose them.

Carpenter Liu waved his hand: "Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. I have to go home and try it out. I'll definitely make your sister-in-law happy tonight."

"I hope it really works."

Chen Jianming prayed for Liu the carpenter, then carried the two roast ducks back into the house and enjoyed a delicious meal.

Then, they went into the space and fed all the animals.

Now, the space not only houses lions and tigers, but also poultry such as chickens, ducks, and geese, all of which are divided into different areas, creating a remarkably harmonious atmosphere.

After leaving the space, I stretched and went back to the inner room to lie on the bed, listening to the sounds coming from the yard.

Having practiced so many martial arts, he now has excellent hearing and eyesight, and can even hear the sounds of people talking and pouring water in the courtyard.

From the front yard came Liu the carpenter's impatient voice: "Wife, just wait, I've found my problem."

Zhang Lu's annoyed voice came through: "What's your problem? If you're going to spit all over my face again, you might as well just rest."

"Hehe, come in, come in."

Liu the carpenter's speech was slurred, clearly indicating he had drunk quite a bit.

Then, there was a lot of clanging and banging coming from next door, but it stopped after a few dozen seconds.

"Useless piece of trash, insisting on showing off? I really thought you were capable, but in the end, I still have to solve it myself!"

Zhang Lu's voice betrayed a sense of irritation.

She hadn't even seen Xiao Chen yet, and now that she'd been piqued, she was incredibly annoyed and gave Liu the carpenter a hard time.

Carpenter Liu, his face contorted in distress, hung his head and said, "This shouldn't be happening. What on earth is going on?"

Chen Jianming heard all of this clearly and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Looks like drinking doesn't really help."

He smiled and shook his head, almost believing Liu the carpenter's nonsense.

The next morning, Chen Jianming got up, washed up, and swaggered out the door.

Now that the gang of thugs has been dealt with and he has no more worries, he plans to go to the cold storage, take out the other half of the wild boar meat, and hand it over to the factory.

Zhang Lu stood in front of her house, her eyes constantly glancing towards the main house. When she saw him come out, her eyes lit up instantly.

"Xiao Chen, off to work? I just bought breakfast, want to grab some?"

Zhang Guoqiang was holding a fried dough stick in his hand, eating it as he greeted everyone.

Lin Ling stood to the side and gave him a disapproving look.

Chen Jianming smiled and politely declined, "No need, Brother Guoqiang."

Aunt Xu and Zhang Guoqiang are both good people, but he doesn't want to have any contact with a snob like Lin Ling.

Zhang Lu crossed her legs together, rubbing them back and forth, her eyes practically glued to Chen Jianming.

With so many people in the courtyard and Liu the carpenter still there, she had no chance to go up and whisper a few words to him.

They could only watch helplessly as the other person left with the people working in the hospital.

Looking back, I saw Liu the carpenter inside the house, carefree, drinking a bowl of rice porridge and making slurping noises.

Zhang Lu's face immediately fell: "This useless thing is not even a tenth as good as Xiao Chen."
