Reborn in Siheyuan: Starting in '52, I Leave the Whole Courtyard Stunned

Li Weiguo transmigrates to a courtyard-house world in 1952. He gains the heaven-defying comprehension skill and a spatial System. He can master every skill and profession: at a glance, he grasps the basics, and once he gets started, he can put everything together with ease! When Li Weiguo realizes he’s ended up in the world of the courtyard houses... His predecessor was born dull-witted and had lost both parents. The courtyard’s assorted beasts had swindled him out of food, drink, and money. They had even taken one of the two houses he left behind. They wanted to give it to Jia Dongxu as his new home. Jia Zhangshi: “You won’t even give us a house like this? How can you be so stingy?” Li Weiguo: “You need to beg me for a house like this? Has your whole Jia family died? Can’t you earn the money to buy one yourselves?” Liu Haizhong: “Flies don’t gather around an egg without a crack!” Li Weiguo: “You’re the fly, so I guess you’d know!” Yan Bugui: “Don’t push things too far just because you have the upper hand!” Li Weiguo: “So you know you’re the one in the wrong?” Yi Zhonghai: “We all live in the same courtyard. Don’t be so petty. Taking a loss is a blessing!” Li Weiguo: “Then I wish you the blessings of the Eastern Sea and a lifespan as long as a fleeting flower!” “...” The courtyard’s assorted beasts were all driven to breaking point by Li Weiguo’s retorts. Meanwhile, with his heaven-defying comprehension skill at his side, Li Weiguo thrived in the capital. During the years of famine that began in 1958, when other people had to break a single steamed bun into pieces to share among the whole family, he sat inside, eating hot pot and sipping wine, its delicious aroma wafting throughout the courtyard. The beasts were driven to breaking point all over again...
