After leaving the department store, Xu Nannan took a car to the waste recycling station.
Xu Nannan has been to this recycling bin once. Because it is a provincial capital city and relatively close to Nanjiang County, she didn't come here to collect things. I just pass by here every time I take the train
Naturally, the recycle bin is not as good as the one in Shanghai, but there are quite a lot of things.
An old aunt was stacking things inside, and another young man was sorting them out and preparing to distribute them.
Xu Nannan looked at it for a while, but found that there was nothing useful here. There are also bronze utensils, but even she can tell that they are really worthless and worthless.
"Comrade, what are you looking at?" asked the old aunt who was tidying things up.
Xu Nannan froze for a moment, then smiled, "It's nothing, I just want to see if there are any second-hand things that can be used."
"There's nothing usable here, it's all scrap metal." The old aunt lowered her head again.
Xu Nannan glanced at it, and there was really nothing to pick up. Just go outside. If you can encounter such a thing, you will encounter it, and if you can’t encounter it, you will be unlucky.
"Comrade, you wait."
Not far away from the door, someone shouted from behind. Xu Nannan looked back subconsciously, he was a young man. And he was still a young man who had just sorted out things in the waste recycling bin.
"Comrade, what's the matter with you?" Xu Nannan asked.
The young man looked around, then smiled, "I think you are looking for some old things, aren't you?"
Hearing this, Xu Nannan said cautiously, "It's okay, I just have a look. See if it can be recycled. After all, don't you have to recycle the waste you collect here? Our purpose is the same."
"Comrade, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else." The young man rubbed his palms, "It's like this. I usually work here, and when I see some old things that are still usable, I put them away. If you want to find These things, do you want to look at mine?"
When Xu Nannan heard it, it's no wonder that he didn't see anything useful at the toll booth just now. This is because he met his colleagues.
Seeing that Xu Nannan didn't speak, Xiaonian hurriedly said, "The ones that are really usable are all good. Otherwise, you wait, and I'll get you one or two when I get home. My home is nearby."
"...OK." Xu Nannan nodded.
Seeing that Xu Nannan agreed, Xiaonian let her wait here, and immediately went to another alley. After a few minutes, this young man came over with a small bronze mirror in his arms. It's small, the size of a palm, but it looks very delicate.
"Look, comrade, this one is pretty good. Although it's not as clear as a glass mirror, it's pretty good." The young man promoted.
Xu Nannan took it over and looked at it. There are hollow carvings on the back, which are really good. "Are you really selling this?" This person knows how to pick up leaks, so he would sell what he found for no reason.
"Of course. If you want it, just take it. I still have some at home." The young man tried his best to sell.
Seeing his enthusiastic look, Xu Nannan became more vigilant. "Why are you willing to sell the old things you collected yourself?"
"I just want this bronze mirror. How much?"
Xu Nannan said that he was going to give the money and leave. Seeing that he finally ran into one, and this person was leaving, he immediately became anxious, "Oh, comrade, can I tell you the truth? Well, my family used to work for someone with the surname Zi, pawn you You know, it’s the kind that specializes in collecting things. Doesn’t it work at the recycling station? When you encounter a good one, you’re reluctant to break it. It also costs a lot of money to collect at home, and it’s too much.”
There was one more thing he didn't dare to tell Xu Nannan. The grandparents in his family have seen a lot of things, and their heads and eyes are a little more vigilant than others. This world, although it is peaceful, but the atmosphere changes every day, and I always feel that something is wrong. It's not safe to keep these things at home, so it's better to cash out quickly. With money, no matter how the world changes in the future, you don't have to worry about going hungry. If one day you can still do business, this is capital.
Xu Nannan's eyes lit up when he heard that this was actually a pawn shop. If you work in a pawn shop, you still have a few brushes, otherwise, how much will you have to pay if you drill a hole. In the future, everyone will be appraisers, but they really can't keep up with the big shopkeepers of pawnshops in the old society.
No one dislikes a lot of good things, Xu Nannan pretended to be calm and said, "Okay, I just want to collect a few things too. Well, I'll wait at the entrance of that alley, and you bring the things here."
As soon as Xu Nannan agreed, the young man immediately agreed.
The two walked to the entrance of the alley, and the young man pointed in the direction of his house, which was still a green brick house. "This street used to belong to our shopkeeper's house, but now it's all separated."
"Comrade, just wait for me here, and I'll be right over." Worried about Xu Nannan leaving, the young man gave another order before heading home.
In the blue brick house, an old lady was sewing clothes and watched her grandson come back. She frowned and said, "Why did you come back again and didn't do this job? Your father put so much effort into getting you this job."
"Grandma, I'm doing business. Don't you keep letting me get rid of the things the family collects?" the young man said with a smile.
"Have you found someone?" The old lady stopped what she was doing and asked in surprise.
"That's right, she's a young girl. She thought she wanted to collect some old things to play with. She went to our place today. How sharp my eyes are, I could tell right away that she was looking for something. She was neatly dressed. , the key is that they have meat on their faces and good spirits. It looks like they come from rich people. How can such a person buy old things and use them? He wants to keep them for fun. He is the same as the daughters of rich families in the old society. Like us, if you have money and have nothing to spend, you like to play with these dead things. Selling things to such a simple person doesn't worry about being missed."
The old lady was relieved when she heard that it was a little girl. If you encounter a powerful one, you will get into trouble.
Xu Nannan listened at the door, pursed his lips, come on, people are taking her for a fool. But at last he breathed a sigh of relief. She lifted her foot towards the entrance of the alley.
Not long after Xu Nannan arrived at the entrance of the alley, the young man came. He was carrying a burlap bag in his hand, half full of the contents of the burlap bag.
The young man was also very happy to see that Xu Nannan was still waiting.
"Comrade, you can see everything here."
Open the mouth of the bag to show Xu Nannan. Xu Nannan took a closer look, and found that his appearance was okay. "Is this thing real? Don't sell me some fake ones. Even if I buy old things, they should be worth the price." She deliberately said seriously.
Hearing this, the young man smiled and said, "Comrade, don't worry, my eyes are passed down from my ancestors, and I have never drilled them. There are no rare treasures, but these things can only be seen in pawnshops in the old society." Just this bronze mirror, you don’t think it’s a big thing, but it’s quite old, just by looking at the carvings on it, you’ll know it’s not something for ordinary people, if you want to leave it in the past, you can’t take it down without fifty yuan.”
If it weren't for the fact that this world makes people unable to see clearly, he would not be willing to sell it.
Hearing this, Xu Nannan was skeptical and picked and picked, and then agreed to accept them all. Anyway, it's really good-looking, and there's nothing left.
"We don't charge too much, 20 yuan, 20 catties of food stamps." The young man stretched out two fingers and said.
This is equivalent to half a month's salary of Xu Nannan. Half a month's salary and food stamps are nothing in the future, but they are the capital for survival in this era. Xu Nannan shook his head, "Fifteen yuan, fifteen catties of food stamps."
The young man hesitated. Although it didn't cost much for him to collect these things, at least he took care of them himself. If this was in the old society, the pawn shop would have to pay him. That's a lot of money.
Xu Nannan didn't give in either. Although she doesn't lack these things, if she shows that she doesn't lack any money, the business will be difficult next time, and people will be suspicious.
The young man thought for a long time before he gritted his teeth and agreed.
Xu Nannan pursed his lips and smiled, and gave him the food stamps and money, "I'm going to take some more, no matter if it's porcelain or ancient calligraphy and painting, if you have something suitable, please keep it for me, and I'll come and get it when the time comes .”
It's rare to meet half of his colleagues, Xu Nannan thinks this line can still be kept. After all, they all do this kind of thing, and it's better to meet someone who knows how to do it.
Hearing that Xu Nannan still wanted to pay, the young man immediately felt better. This is a long-term business. "Okay, I'll keep it for you. But let's agree, you come to collect it every month. If you don't come in a month, I won't help you. By the way, my name is Wei Xiaodong, and the green brick house, Just come and find me."
But Wei Xiaodong decided not to keep these things at home in the future.
After Wei Xiaodong left, Xu Nannan put the things in the Taobao shop. I hurried back to the guest house.
As soon as he went back, Xu Nannan put all his things in the Taobao shop. Wei Xiaodong reckoned that she only liked bronze wares, so he gave them all. There are several copper mirrors alone, as well as some copper bowls and copper cups.
After the things were arranged, Xu Nannan found that there were few things in his shop. There were all kinds of books, calligraphy and paintings. Although he didn't know whether they were true or not, they were still antiques. I simply made a classification and sorted it out. Put all kinds of things into different categories. After tidying up, she found that there were only three items on the porcelain side, and she had collected them herself. Looking at the nakedness, he simply put out the things that had been put in the basket before and hadn't been taken out.
Looking at it this way, it is much more tidy.
Look at the name of the small shop in your own age. Xu Nannan thinks that the name should be changed, or should it be called the Big Antique Store
Just thinking about it, the name of the store has changed.
... so convenient. Xu Nannan stared at the new store name.
ding ding ding
A dialog box popped up, [Old Antique]: "You are new again!"
This is a dog's nose, Xu Nannan said in surprise.
She hasn't been in touch with Old Antique for a while. The last time she was cheated was too miserable, even though Old Antique told her that it was a scam in their profession. But still can't change the fact that I was cheated.
Because Old Antique said that the second child was the one who was picked up before, so the last time he made an offer, he just offered one at random, waiting for Xu Nannan to counter the price. As a result, I met someone who didn't understand better than him.
So he immediately ran to chat with his friends in the circle about it. Money is not important to circles like theirs, but it is an honor to be able to buy valuable antiques for a small amount of money.
Xu Nannan couldn't figure out how to use the fact that he was scammed to complete the reputation of a scammer.
Xu Nannan sent a blank expression, showing that he was not in a good mood.
[Old Antique]: "How about next time you have something, I'll hold it for you. What do you think? Although I prefer to study copperware, I also do a little research on other antiques."
Hearing what Old Antique said, Xu Nannan finally felt better. Although the second child was a little bit bad, Old Antique was still a straightforward person.
Just thinking about it, Old Antique sent another message, "By the way, where did you get that mirror from? I want it. Ten thousand yuan, how about it?"
Seeing this sentence, Xu Nannan became angry immediately.
What Wei Xiaodong said before this mirror is that it is something from the past, and if it was sold in the past, fifty oceans would not be able to take it down. If this is in the future, it will only be more valuable. What can I buy with 10,000 yuan? It’s just a monthly salary of a white-collar worker in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. I just wanted to say honesty, but it turned out to be deceiving.
Xu Nannan made an angry expression and went over. Not even the price this time.
Old Antique on the opposite side sent her a bunch of knowledge about popularizing bronze mirrors. Xu Nannan took a few glances, and told her anyway that it was worthless.
Xu Nannan sent the word "hehe".
[Old Antique]: "... It seems that the second child has taught you an important lesson. Well, one hundred and fifty thousand. These bronze mirrors are all from the Ming Dynasty and have some value, but they really cannot be called rare treasures."
I was almost cheated of 140,000 yuan, and several mirrors were worth hundreds of thousands. Xu Nannan calmed down, "180,000. We are a small shop."
"… make a deal."
Xu Nannan bid the price in a good mood this time. It's nice to have someone who knows how to do it. If it wasn't for Wei Xiaodong, she would have to drill this time.
If there is a chance to stabilize Wei Xiaodong's line in the future, he must learn this knowledge well.
After making a business deal, and just about to go offline for a rest, Old Antique suddenly sent a message, "The porcelain you received, the bottle with flat peaches, are they real?"
Xu Nannan took a look and found that he was talking about the bottle that was suspected to be a priceless treasure that he had collected in Shanghai before.
It's also a coincidence that among the many porcelains she collected, she also knew that this might be a treasure. She had read a lot of books to learn about antiques. Although she hadn't started yet, she had memorized some pictures of treasures. This bottle looks like it's in a museum.
But that one was donated by others, and Xu Nannan wasn't sure if it was his own. After all, there are so many bottles, who knows if there will be two of the same bottle.
[Old Antique]: "Where did you get this stuff, it's impossible."
Xu Nannan hurriedly said, "It's not for sale, so don't stare at it." Shuowan hung up the dialog box, thought for a while, found a piece of cloth, and covered the treasure in Taobao. Still don't be too ostentatious.
On the other side, a young man wearing glasses was still full of confusion, "It's fake, the real one, isn't it donated to the old lady?"
The next day, Xu Nannan was looking for porcelain in the residential area of Annan City.
Since Old Antique told her this method last time, every time she passed someone's door, she would just stare at their flower pots.
There are no antiques on the Nanjiang side, so this time I came to Annan, I also took a stroll.
After shopping around, I collected a few vases and porcelain bowls with official kiln characters. Anyway, I can keep it in Taobao, so I will keep it first. You will always know the value later. If it doesn't work, I'll ask Wei Xiaodong when I have a chance.
The next day, Xu Nannan went back to Nanjiang directly by car after mailing the summer heat relief materials at the post office.
It was still in the morning when I got home, and as soon as I entered the door, the stone and wood were not at home. Xiaoman is doing homework, and Grandma Yu is mending clothes.
Seeing her come back, I was quite happy, "I came back early this time. Don't go far in the future. That's it, let's rest assured."
Xu Nannan smiled, "It's all for work." He took out the fabric again, "Grandma, this is the fabric I bought for you and grandpa. You can make two sets of short-sleeved clothes. It's cool in summer."
Seeing that Xu Nannan made clothes for them again, the old lady froze for a moment, then sighed, "You child... we are so old..."
This material feels really comfortable. It must be cool to wear.
Looking at the smiling Xu Nannan, the old lady couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.
I have to talk to the old man, write a letter to the capital, this relative still has to move around, and give the two children a guarantee in the future.
After lunch, Grandpa Yu finally came back with his two boys.
Grandpa Yu especially likes to go out for a walk now. He used to go out by himself, but now that there are two more boys in the house, he simply took them out for a walk. The two children will also come, and a bunch of grandparents and old ladies who coax them like it very much.
When he came back, Grandpa Yu was still blushing and praising the two children for being smart.
The two little ones were terrified.
"By the way, Nannan, I heard from Wood and Stone that you have a crush, let's see when you bring it back." Grandpa Yu said with a smile.
When Xu Nannan heard this, he blushed immediately, "No, that's not the case."
Seeing this, Grandma Yu was worried that she was embarrassed, and glared at the old man, "Eat as soon as you eat, what are you talking about, I will always bring it back when it is time to bring it back."
Grandpa Yu touched his nose in embarrassment. Doesn't he want to palm his eyes
After bringing up the topic, Xu Nannan didn't even dare to raise his head. Why does everyone think that she and Brother Lin are dating.
She and Lin Ge
Xu Nannan touched the heart that was speeding up.
County hotel.
Lin Qingbai sat upright with a calm expression on his face. Lin Qingsong next to him was happily serving food to the old man and old lady sitting next to him.
He also said, "You said, why did you make such a fuss in this hot weather?"
The old lady said with a smile, "Your mother said she would come to see you. We thought we hadn't come back for many years, so we came here to have a look." After speaking, she looked at the woman in military uniform sitting next to her, "Xiao Wan, have you been here all day long?" Are you talking about Qingsong, why come here and don’t talk.”
Li Wan looked at her son, "I don't think he is impatient to listen to me." Even though he said that, the kindness in his eyes was obvious.
Lin Qingsong, on the other hand, didn't even look at her, and kept on serving food to the two elders.
Seeing her son like this, Li Wan looked a little disappointed, then looked at Lin Qingbai next to him, "Qingbai didn't talk much today."
Lin Qingbai said with a faint smile, "Some business."
"You have been like this since you were a child. You never relax." Li Wan smiled. He didn't care about Lin Qingbai's indifference at all.
Lin Qingsong muttered next to him, "Why don't you relax, you're busy dating."
When Li Wan heard this, she looked at Lin Qingbai in surprise, "Did you fall in love? Which family's girl?"
