    After the crowd had gone away, Sun Yuanqi picked up the bread on the ground, dusted it, and continued with his lunch.  After lunch, I was in a daze for a while.  Seeing that it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Yuanqi began to think about how to live in the next few days.  I took out a paper and pen from my bag and started listing them one by one:

    Today: Dinner.  stay.

    Tomorrow: breakfast, lunch, lunch.  stay.

    the day after tomorrow:¡­¡­

    After I listed them down, I realized that they were all about food and accommodation, but in the final analysis they were about money.  So, turn the paper over and list the items you currently have on the paper:

    Body: 1 suit; 1 pair of leather shoes; 1 tie.

    Schoolbag: 1 schoolbag; 8 pieces of A4 paper; 1 signature pen; 1 middle school physics textbook (third grade of junior high school), "Funny Stories about the Discovery of Elements", and "Atomic Talk" each.

    Package: 1 gown; 1 hat; 1 piece of bread; 15 eagles; 1 letter from the embassy.

    Pocket: 1 mobile phone; 1 wallet; n bank cards, bus cards, shopping cards, ID cards; RMB 287.5.

    ??Writing this, Sun Yuanqi was completely desperate: except for the things given by Mr. Kanger, almost everything else on him was of no use!

    "Forget it, let's solve the immediate problem first!" Sun Yuanqi put pen and paper into his schoolbag and thought about today's dinner and accommodation: dinner?  This was easy to solve. There was still a piece of bread given by Mr. Conger, which was barely enough to keep us warm at night.  stay?  This is a big problem.  Hotels and inns are definitely not good, not to mention unsafe, so I should save some money on the 15 yuan that Mr. Conger gave me. Who knows how many days it will be used!  Go back to Mr. Conger?  That's not okay. He has done me such a great favor, so how can he keep causing trouble to others like this?  Going to find Sun Jianai?  What's worse, maybe even the doorman at their house won't let him in.  Then go find Ding Hailiang?  Forget it, God knows where he lives!

    Just when there was nothing to do, the short old man who looked after the door came over, circled around Sun Yuanqi, and said: "I thought it was a little Japan, but it turned out to be a fake foreign devil! Tsk! We still have this in the Qing Dynasty.  Who is the person¡ª¡ª"

    Sun Yuanqi was really annoyed. After hearing his words, he stood up.

    The short old man was originally very arrogant, but when he saw how tall Sun Yuan was, his arrogance immediately dropped by three points: "You what do you want to do? Don't come over here - I'm going to call someone if you come over again!"

    "Then you shout, I'm afraid no one will come to save you even if your throat is broken!" Sun Yuanqi walked around the Horse Temple ten times before and after. He knew that this was a deserted courtyard and there was never anyone around, so he suddenly remembered this famous saying  lines.  After saying that, he patted his thigh: Yes, this horse temple can be used as a place for people to live!

    The short old man was startled when he saw what he looked like, and turned around to run away.  Sun Yuanqi quickly stepped forward and grabbed him, thinking: We can't let this key person escape.

    The short old man was already a little frightened, his face was gloomy, his lips trembled for a long time, and then he suddenly screamed: "It's a murder¡ª¡ªhelp me¡ª¡ª!"

    Sun Yuanqi was also startled and quickly covered his mouth.  The old man struggled even harder. His body was as light as a chicken and he was very energetic. He almost broke free several times. This was probably the legendary "death struggle".

    "Don't shout, I won't kill you." Sun Yuanqi explained, and added: "If you shout randomly, don't blame me for being rude!"

    The short old man nodded in horror, and Sun Yuanqi slowly let go of his hand.  Seeing Sun Yuan raise his hand and take it back, the old man rolled out, got up and started to run. He kept talking, and his voice changed out of tune: "Help~~~It's a murder~~~~"

    Sun Yuanqi rushed to catch up, pushed the old man to the ground, and covered his mouth again: "I told you not to shout, but you still dare to run. Do you think I don't dare to kill you?"

    Fortunately, this yard is desolate enough and there are no homes around it.  If he were to change places, he would definitely recruit people. At that time, Sun Yuanqi would be speechless and couldn't explain clearly, so he would be charged with murder.  So he spoke with anger and a small fire in his eyes.

    The short old man was so frightened that he could not struggle as his hands and feet were pinned down. He could only whine and cry. His tears and nose ran down and became a mess on his face.

    Sun Yuanqi couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to say again: "Don't move, and don't scream. I'm not going to kill you, I'm just asking you to do a favor. Do you understand? Nod if you understand!"

    The old man nodded when he saw that Sun Yuanqi didn't look like he wanted to kill him.

    "Then let me go, but you're not allowed to move anymore, you know?" Sun Yuanqi said with a deliberately harsh tone.  Unfortunately, in the 21st century, Sun Yuanqi was a standard good boy. He had never even killed a chicken. He had only been in the Qing Dynasty for a few days, and he was doing such immoral things as fraud, forgery, and intimidation.The steamed buns cost two cents each, and the ones with plain fillings cost one cent each.  "

    It¡¯s not expensive!  Sun Yuanqi thought for a while and asked, "Where's a towel?"

    "The best ones cost eighty or ninety cents, the worse ones cost sixty or seventy cents, and even worse ones, thirty or forty cents." It seems that there is a huge price gap between good and bad ones.

    Sun Yuanqi asked again: "How much does a washbasin cost?"

    "Washebasin? You mean a wooden basin for washing your face, right? That's not certain. A stranger can buy one for 150 renminbi, and a regular customer can buy one for 80 renminbi." Old Tong seemed to have something in mind, and he was speechless.  With a stutter.

    ¡­¡­

    After asking for a long time and asking everything he could think of, Lao Tong was confused: "What do you want to buy?"

    Sun Yuanqi scratched his head and said, "How much is that Yingyang worth?"

    "The Yingyang is different, and the price is also different. The one you have is the American Yingyang, and the quality is a little different. It is estimated to be worth six to eight to seven cents of silver." Lao Tong said firmly.

    "Yingyang is so strong!" Sun Yuanqi's exchange rate of silver and copper coins has always stayed at one to one thousand as the teacher said: "One piece of general can be exchanged for seven hundred coins!"

    Old Tong didn¡¯t understand the first half of the sentence, but he couldn¡¯t understand the second half: ¡°What, seven hundred? At least one thousand and one!¡±

    "Ah¡ª¡ª?" It turns out that after opium entered China, a large amount of silver was outflowed, causing the ratio of silver to copper coins to rise from one to one thousand to one to one thousand sixty-seven, but Sun Yuanqi didn't know this.  I thought: Forget it!  If you go shopping by yourself, you will probably be sold by someone else, and you are helping to count the money!  Well, let¡¯s continue to trouble Lao Tong!

    After Sun Yuanqi made up his mind, he smiled and said to Lao Tong: "Excuse me, are you free today?"

    Old Tong didn¡¯t know what the tall man was planning. He blinked and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter with you?¡±

    Sun Yuanqi said: "It's like this. I just arrived in the capital. I didn't prepare anything and I didn't understand the prices. I was completely in the dark. When I went out to buy things, I was bound to be ripped off. So I would like to ask you to help me.  Buy something."

    "Oh, that's it, okay! What do you want to buy?" the old man replied gaba'erchi.

    "Just what I just asked you."

    The old man took a look at Sun Yuanqi and said, "Don't be suspicious of people, but don't be suspicious of people you employ! We, Old Tong, are also number one, and we will never do anything unintentional!"

    Sun Yuanqi immediately explained: "I didn't want to trouble you just now, so I planned to go by myself. But after hearing what you said, I realized that I am not that material at all, so I asked you to take action."

    The old man finally managed to regain his composure: "Okay. But I can't remember everything you want"

    "I wrote it all down on this piece of paper." After saying that, he took out the piece of paper from his bag.

    Old Tong shook his head: "It recognizes me, but I don't recognize it."

    "Then you just think about buying it. They are all necessary for daily life and can be used together." Sun Yuanqi was at a loss. "How much will it cost?"

    Old Tong made a total calculation: "I estimate that two or three oceans can definitely prepare it!"

    This was much less than Sun Yuanqi expected, so he took out three yuan from his schoolbag and handed it over: "I'll excuse you!"

    "Just take a look." Lao Tong was full of confidence and turned to leave.  Sun Yuanqi stopped him again: "One more question, where does the old foreign man named Ding Haoliang live yesterday?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
