Siheyuan: A Demobilized Procurement Officer, Taking Temperatures from the Start

Su Xiangdong transmigrates to 1964 and becomes a decorated war hero who has just left the military. He joins the purchasing department of the Hongxing Steelworks and moves into Courtyard No. 95 on Nanluoguxiang!

He binds an Emotion Points Shop. As long as he leaves people fuming, he can get all the pork belly, refined white flour, and special-supply cigarettes and liquor he wants!

He worked himself to death in his previous life. This time, Su Xiangdong just wants meat at every meal, a two-story home, and an easy life.

But the scoundrels in the courtyard are green with envy!

When Old Yan tries to scheme his way into a free meal, Su Xiangdong turns the tables and gets him to hand over a bottle of top-shelf liquor!

When Liu Haizhong tries to throw his official status around, Su Xiangdong simply gets Yi Zhonghai to ambush Fat Liu in a dark alley and beat him hard!

When Yi Zhonghai tries to guilt-trip him, Su Xiangdong turns around and publicly tears away the shameless cover hiding Yi's childlessness!

One evening, the smell of meatballs drifts from his room. The pretty widow Qin Huairu bites her lip and shows up at his door. "Brother Xiangdong, I'm burning up all over. Please give me some meat to eat..."

Su Xiangdong casually bolts the door. "Sister Qin, don't worry. I've got a large imported thermometer here. It'll cure every ailment tonight, but... there's a fifty-cent wear-and-tear fee!"

Lou Xiao'e, Qin Huairu, Yu Li...

Watching Su Xiangdong enjoy the good life and sing and feast every night, the courtyard's scoundrels are pushed completely over the edge!
