Siheyuan: Jie Hu Lou Xiao'e

"In addition, I want to remind you, Chunming!" Su Ci said calmly.

"This projectionist has learned a real skill. He won't starve to death wherever he goes, so being an apprentice is not easy. Not only do you have to learn and work at the same time, but sometimes I also make you work night shifts. You probably don't have time to fall in love.

Already."

Su Ci gave him a vaccination, and he had to beat the mandarin ducks with a stick. Once a girl like Su Meng gets involved, Han Chunming's life will be ruined.

Cai Xiaoli is the most suitable match for Han Chunming. As long as Su Meng misses the germination of the seeds of her relationship with Han Chunming, everything will be solved.

Han Chunming did not doubt that he was there, and said energetically: "Uncle Su, don't worry, I will never be lazy and do anything. This projectionist is very popular, and I'm not stupid. How can I not learn my real skills!"

Staying at home is almost boring. Han Chunming is eager to find something serious to do. What's the point of being busy and tired?

Su Ci nodded and decided to go to the sub-district office tomorrow to find Director Guo and find a quota for dispatching Su Meng far away. All he had to do was stagger the time in the past two years.

"By the way, Master, I have something to report to you. This afternoon, I saw a little kid playing with a telescopic pole. It's made of copper and has two letters on it, Goubi."

Han Chunming also specially wrote it down on the ground, a j and a b.

Uncle Guan nodded and said, "Good stuff."

"Then you can tell me what's good about it."

Su Ci interrupted: "Is it something from Elgin?"

"Oh, the door is clean!" Uncle Guan was not surprised and praised him.

Strictly speaking, Su Ci can be regarded as Uncle Guan's disciple. In the past nine years, as the director of the Revolutionary Committee, he also helped Uncle Guan once. He contributed a lot in the review process of Little Lazy Cat and his parents for going abroad. Therefore, Uncle Guan taught

An introduction to antique appreciation.

What Su Ci lacked was getting started.

A skill book can be directly upgraded to a high level. When it comes to antique appreciation, it may be a bit difficult for him to get an eye on it.

Han Chunming scratched his head and asked, "Can you explain it in detail?"

"In 1860, everyone in the old capital knew about the April 9th ​​Treaty signed by Elgin and the Nine Princes outside Andingmen, and Elgin's full name was James, Bruce (written with these two letters)

."

Su Ci smiled and said, "You must have missed it."

Han Chunming was ecstatic and said excitedly: "Okay! Okay! Uncle Su, can I advance some salary from you? It doesn't need to be more, just one dollar will do!"

"I happened to be interested, let's go together." Su Ci stood up.

Han Chunming's face fell: "No, Uncle Su, you want to compete with a junior like me, that wouldn't be appropriate."

"Don't worry, I won't fight for the telescopic pole. I will just watch the whole process." Su Ci said.

"That's okay!" Han Chunming was happy. Anyway, just take it with you as a purse and you won't suffer any loss!

Uncle Guan said: "Bring it back and show me!"

"knew!"

Han Chunming took Su Ci and walked quickly all the way to the door of the house where he saw the little boy during the day. He knocked on the door and Hou Su'e, who was dressed in a rustic dress, opened the door.

After some haggling, Hou Su'e, who had no business experience, finally settled the deal for 40 cents.

"Wait."

Hou Su'e entered the house and went to get the all-copper telescopic pole. Her husband, who was on crutches, snatched it away and scolded: "Are you stupid? This is all copper. If you sell it for only four cents, you will definitely lose money!"

After that, he sat on the edge of the bed, took out the sandpaper, and worked hard for a long time until it was finally shiny.

"It's fine now, you can charge him eight cents!"

"Who can ask for eight cents?" Hou Su'e looked unbelieving.

"Don't pull me down!"

After all, Han Chunming was a young boy. He wandered back and forth during the waiting time, nervously asking for help. Hou Su'e handed over the telescopic pole with excitement on her face.

"Is it this one?" Han Chunming looked confused.

"Is it bright? It took me a long time to grind my incision to make it so bright." Hou Su'e had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

"You, you, you... just keep it to yourself!"

Han Chunming was so angry that he said nothing.

"Hey, hey, don't go, Sanmao! I really can't sell you for two cents..."

"No! I don't want a cent! I'm uneducated!"

Han Chunming stamped his feet angrily. All traces of the antique were wiped away. He still wanted a woolen yarn.

Hou Su'e said unhappily: "Who are you? Even if you pay me even a dime, I feel a loss!"

Su Ci smiled and said nothing the whole time. Hou Su'e still didn't know how rich her father's family was when he was in ruins. When the real prosperous age comes, it will be more wealth than can be spent in ten lifetimes. She is living a tight life now.

Yes, I have to worry about a few cents.

"Sister Hou, you are a very frizzy child!" Su Cidao

"I want one dollar for your telescopic pole!"

Hou Su'e's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really?"

"Haha, I won't lose my share for one dollar, it's absolutely true."

Su Ci took out a dollar and bought the copper pole. Hou Su'e was immediately overjoyed.

"I paid for this copper pole to buy horse bones. If you still have a similar gadget, I'm willing to recycle it at a high price. Of course, the premise is that you can't polish it on your own like you did today."

No matter how precious the antique is, it cannot withstand your diligent cleaning.

Hou Su'e said happily: "No problem! To tell you the truth, my grandpa collects rags. There are so many old things like this in the house that there is no place to put them! The price..."

"I accept small items like this, telescopic rods, antique copper coins, oceans, small enamel bowls, etc. The price is negotiable!"

"Let's do it this way. It's only one yuan a piece, and there's no upper limit. If something good comes out, I'm willing to pay extra and I won't treat you badly."

Hou Su'e felt that her heart was about to jump into her throat: "Really... one yuan a piece?!"

She knew that there were countless antiques and gadgets from her father's shabby house, at least two to three hundred pieces. If she could get them for one yuan, wouldn't it cost two to three hundred yuan!

Su Ci nodded and said: "Of course! Keep your word! I will come again every other week. I will ask for as much as you have by then. Don't worry about me not having any money."

As he said that, he flashed his Swiss all-steel watch. Hou Su'e was so excited that she couldn't help herself. This imported watch alone cost 150 yuan. She was really a rich man in front of her!

Although she and Baoshahou were at loggerheads over their marriage.

But after all, they are relatives whose blood is thicker than water. When she goes back with her grandson, she is not afraid that the rags will drive her out. When her father goes out to collect the rags, she will pack them up...

After all, my husband is a medicine man, and when the children are growing up, the family still needs money very much.

"I particularly like small enamel bowls. If there are any, I will pay five yuan for each!"

Su Ci was still thinking about the three small enamel bowls in his hand.

Hou Su'e was ecstatic: "Okay, okay! I understand!" She remembered clearly the three small enamel bowls her father kept on the tea table! After the wine was finished, the tea was fragrant, and then she went back upstairs.

The Juyou in Uncle Guan’s hands also hides another unknown story.

According to memory, at the 2021 auction, a small enamel bowl from the Qianlong period was sold for as high as 7.6 million.

And the value of this set of four enamel colors is not just as simple as superposition.

If it is a treasure from the Yongzheng period, the price will be even more immeasurable. Su Ci plans to come together and open four famous restaurants in the four nine cities on the basis of four small bowls. Anyway, the chefs are all similar.

Now, Nan Yi and He Yuzhu can both do their own thing. When the time comes, we will find two more skilled chefs, and we will basically be able to live together.

After the matter was finalized, Su Ci left with Han Chunming.

This transaction is a final deal at most, and he is not a fool when he is in ruins. He regards collecting antiques as treasures, and he has thought about it for at least once.

Su Ci's purpose was also very clear. Three small enamel bowls were enough, and the rest were considered a surprise. If something too valuable came to him, he would probably fight him desperately when it was broken.

As for this unflattering method, Su Ci didn't take it seriously. When the junk collector collected these antiques, he didn't see how much he spent on them. People who didn't know how to do it didn't sell them as junk.

Speaking of which, I actually made quite a bit of difference in price!

"Chunming, report to the cinema on time at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. I'll have someone take you to familiarize yourself with the environment. Then I'll teach you projection techniques."

"Okay! Thank you, Uncle Su!"

"This copper rod is given to you as a souvenir."

Han Chunming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had learned a lesson today. The moment the baby is in his hands, it is full of unknowns. He can no longer take chances.

But overall he was very happy. His job was finally settled, so he happily went to report the good news to Mother Han.

Su Ci, on the other hand, returned to the courtyard with his hands behind his back. When passing by the backyard, he accidentally 'stumbled' into his back room, making Ran Qiuye snicker shyly.

There was nothing to say all night, but the next day, quite shocking news came from the courtyard.

BangGeng is out of jail!

Qin Huairu's family. Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu were both worried. It had been some time since Banggeng came back. At first, they prepared wine and food to celebrate Banggian's return. Jia Zhang was happy that her grandson was back.

, and Qin Huairu felt that she had survived and finally had someone to rely on. But gradually, the problem became apparent.

It is really inconvenient for a family of five to still be crowded into one room. After all, Bangge is a boy and an adult. Sometimes it is very inconvenient to get up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet.

Besides, if you keep eating like this, it won't be the same thing.

Since two years ago, Liang Ladi followed her husband Nan Yi and the whole family to work in the provincial canteen. This part-time job was immediately banned, and the family directly lost twenty yuan in their source of livelihood.

Qin Huairu could only live on the meager thirteen yuan she earned from working in the cleaning team. In the past two years, she had completely ate up all the money she had saved in the past seven years.

Although Qin Huairu has now returned to the workshop and can earn a salary of twenty-seven and a half yuan, how can she support a family of five now having nothing to do?

Banggen is now an adult, and his appetite can be several times greater than that of the half-grown boy. In addition, Huaihua and Xiaodang are also growing up. Qin Huairu's salary this month is not enough just to pay for food and drink.

use.

What's more, what about other expenses?

Xiaodang and Huaihua were not interested in their brother's return and showed little interest. In their childhood, their grandmother and mother left all good things to their brother, and they became losers.

Now that Banggeng comes back, it's like celebrating the New Year at home. Grandma and mother are preparing all kinds of delicious food and drinks, not to mention being very enthusiastic.

If it weren't for Qin Huairu's death order, they wouldn't want to stay at home now, and would have gone to their godfather's house to have dinner, where the big fish and meat would be delicious.

Looking at the food on the table now, I can't feel my appetite at all. The clear soup is watery and there is no trace of meat or fish in it.

It turned out that after Su Ci stepped down six months ago, since the leadership teams of the steel rolling mill and the machine repair shop had changed, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he simply cut off the supply of pork and eggs.

To put it bluntly, the current food situation in the steel rolling mill has returned to the level of 65 years ago, the small window has been closed, and the market for free trading of red, white, and yellow tickets has disappeared.

This is equivalent to directly cutting off the workers’ source of extra income.

The result of this is that the living conditions of the entire factory workers have plummeted.

In the past, you could eat meat every day, and you could have dumplings twice a week. Now, if you want to eat meat, you have to queue up at a grocery store to buy it, which is so expensive.

Anyway, the factory cafeteria won't be smelly unless it's a holiday. This is why countless people are eagerly looking forward to Su Ci's return to the leadership position. If Su Ci goes out for a walk, he will encounter many steel rolling mills.

The workers at the factory and machine repair shop mentioned this matter.

"It can't go on like this. Bangge still has to find a job."

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang's views are very rare to agree on.

But it’s too difficult. Bangge has been in prison for ten years. This is a black spot on the file that cannot be cleaned up. Which unit dares to hire him, let alone a regular employee, even if he is a temporary worker sweeping the streets, he

I won't consider you either.

What's more, if there were really job quotas for street sweepers, I don't know how many educated youths would grab their heads. Where would it be his turn?

"I think we have to find Su Ci for this matter. He is very capable. Although he may be a manager in the cinema now, I think it won't be a problem to arrange a temporary worker!" Qin Huairu said.

Jia Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up and she said: "Yes, Su Ci arranged for Liu Guangfu to be an apprentice in his cinema a few days ago. He was paid twenty-nine and a half yuan a month, which is higher than your income.

!”

"But do you think this can be done? Why would Su Ci help us for no reason?"

"Don't worry, I know what's going on. I'll go to Jingru's place after dinner."

Qin Huairu already knew it in her heart. She knew very well about the unknown relationship between Qin Jingru and Su Ci. As long as her sister was willing to let go and give her a little breeze, she wouldn't have to worry about whether her job would be settled!

He ate steamed buns and stir-fried cabbage with a gloomy look on his face. He was caressed by his inmates a lot in prison, and this was a natural habit formed by him.

Xiaodang and Huaihua couldn't stand the unfamiliar gloomy expression, so they stood up hesitantly and said one after another: "We are full, let's go out and get some fresh air."

Qin Huairu revealed it without hesitation: "I think you two want to go to Su Ci's house to have your teeth cut off!"

The two little ones suddenly looked embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter if you go, just bring back leftovers in the evening, otherwise don't come back."

Qin Huairu also worked hard to give her son extra food. Xiaodang said aggrievedly: "Mom, it's not like you don't know that our godfather never allows us to take out food."

Huaihua also quickly added: "Yes, if we make our godfather unhappy, no one may pay Xiaodang and I's tuition fees by then."

Qin Huairu was very angry. These two little white-eyed wolves were only interested in her eating and drinking, but they didn't care about her family affairs at all. They didn't even look happy at all when her brother came home!
