Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 132 Should I Be Thankful Or Be Proud

So the negotiations entered a difficult stage, and finally Zhou Zhi took advantage of a large purchase volume and got a deal of three yuan and five for one set.

Downstairs, Uncle Yu moved to Manzhou, and the house key was lost to Zhou Zhi, who asked him to take care of some orchids that had not been moved. In addition, the dark house had to be lived in from time to time, otherwise it would be easy to break down.

I left a set of small amplifiers at home.

In fact, Uncle Yu’s configuration is correct, but Little Sixth Sister didn’t know about it, so she installed a set of big speakers for Uncle Yu, causing the entire building to become a speaker.

Now the big stereo has moved to Manzhou with Uncle Yu, but the small "desktop" stereo has stayed, and now there is only one sound source missing.

The next two years are destined to be boring, hard and depressing, maybe listening to music is the only way to unwind.

Another important thing is the charger and rechargeable battery, otherwise the Walkman's battery can become a big expense.

There are quite a lot of rechargeable batteries, all of which are disassembled from Japanese electrical equipment, and the price is not expensive, because I buy a lot of tapes, Zhou Zhi directly asked the boss to sell half and give half away.

After shopping, it was afternoon. Zhou Zhi invited Jiang Shuyi and Xu Hui to eat a famous Shudu snack at the mouth of the Town God's Temple - fat sausage powder and pot helmet.

"I can't tell, you are rich! You have so much discretionary income!" Xu Hui has a stereo at home, but what she envies is the "spare money" that Zhou Zhi can spend: "Aihua of three hundred yuan, said to buy Just buy it!"

Jiang Shuyi was a little worried when she picked up the fat rice rolls: "Zhou Zhi, you spend too much money like this. Will you be criticized when you go home?"

"Actually, there is still 1000 yuan to spend, eat it quickly, and we have to go shopping after eating."

"Still buying?"

"Well, game consoles and cassettes." Zhou Zhi said, "The two game consoles before couldn't stand the way kids played, but now there are new machines, the price is much cheaper, and the contents of the cassettes are also rich. It's estimated that there will be another half a year. That stall should be withdrawn."

Jiang Shuyi explained to Xu Hui: "Zhou Zhi's cousin runs a video game booth with us, and Zhou Zhi owns a share, so he has to share part of his daily income."

After explaining, he carefully reminded Zhou Zhi: "But this money shouldn't be spent like this..."

Zhou Zhi said: "Uncle Yu downstairs gave me the key to his dormitory, and I plan to decorate it as a study. From now on, if you are tired from studying, Shuyi, you can go there to listen to music and relax."

"By the way, I haven't thanked you for sending me the tape yet."

Jiang Shuyi lowered her head: "I think your voice is suitable for singing that kind of song."

"What kind of song?"

"When we passed the store, "Where Are You" was playing in the store."

"Oh……"

Zhou Zhi really liked that song, he had sung it countless times in his previous life, but it was a bit miserable, because it was a song he fell in love with after breaking up with Jiang Shuyi, a song for longing and healing.

Now Jiang Shuyi said that this song is suitable for her, which made Zhou Zhi feel magical.

When watching this familiar song yesterday, Zhou Zhi realized for the first time that it was actually composed by Lu Guanting.

That is, the one who wrote "The Love of My Life" for "A Chinese Journey to the West".

After eating, I bought the new game console Xiaobawang and a pirated multi-in-one game cassette. These two things are exactly the same as Zhu Dazhang's red and white machine and cassette in content, but the price is only one-fifth .

Those two red and white machines probably won't go back yet, and the brats will break them in half a year. This can be used to show compensation.

Of course, Zhou Zhi guessed that Little Sixth Sister would not accept it at all.

This time shopping was actually to take Jiang Shuyi out to relax. In the evening, Zhou Zhi gave her the radio and asked her to listen first.

On the next Saturday, Zhou Zhi and Zhang Lu set off early in the morning to Chunxi Road.

There is an arts and crafts mall on Chunxi Road, and there is a professional counter selling antiques.

They are all antiques with their prices clearly marked, and most of them are official kiln wares.

The current price of antique porcelain has begun to rise compared to [-], but it is still at a low level. Gongmei Shopping Mall is a state-owned unit, and the prices of things are still clearly marked.

In the store in Shudu, the prices are still at the level of the capital in [-].

But there are also many good things here, and there is no distinction between literature and history. When Zhou Zhi and Zhang Lu arrived, Gu Kailai and Chi Xueli were already drinking tea in the manager's office.

Zhou Zhi brought almost all the cash this time, besides the money given by Miss Liu at the time, there were also money from the computer stall, a total of 6000 yuan.

Seeing Zhou Zhi and Zhang Lu approaching, Gu Kailai said to the manager, "This is the little friend, Zhou Zhi, whom my father and grandfather value a lot."

The manager stood up: "Xiaoyou Zhou."

Zhou Zhi quickly waved his hands: "Don't dare, I'm only a sophomore in high school. Manager, just call me by my name."

The three generations of the Gu family's love for Zhou Zhi made Chi Xueli quite amused: "There is a second-year high school student like you!"

The manager smiled and said, "My name is Classmate Zhou. I heard that Classmate Zhou is interested in porcelain, calligraphy and painting? It's not me. We have a lot of things from famous modern calligraphy and painting masters in our art and crafts mall."

Now Hong Kong and Taiwan's modern Chinese calligraphy and painting auctions are beginning to rise, but the wind has not yet blown into the mainland, let alone the mainland.

"It's good to be able to appreciate it." Zhou Zhi was very humble.

The most famous collection in Shuchuan Gongmei Mall is naturally Zhang Daqian.

But this thing is already very expensive now, a foot is worth tens of thousands, mainly because several auctions in Hong Kong have hyped it up.

But apart from him, Qi Baishi, Fan Zeng, Huang Binhong, calligraphers such as Liu Bingsen, etc., are only one hundred and one feet long.

Qi Baishi's things will only be two hundred and one square feet in ten years.

And the current ruler is not the same as the later generations.

The current ruler is the name for the standard size of rice paper, referring to the paper specifications.

For example, a four-foot square is 68 centimeters multiplied by 68 centimeters, or four square feet.

The eight-foot whole paper is 27 square feet, and now the price is only calculated by eight feet.

Famous masterpieces, 800 yuan can be won.

This is still several years late. In 20, Xu Huachi bought [-] calligraphy and paintings of modern famous masters from the History Museum for [-] yuan, which is a big leak.

The works of painters are generally only valuable after death.

In the end Zhou Zhi went through a selection process and bought two very colorful Chinese paintings.

One is "Ten Thousand Rivers and Thousand Mountains" by Li Keran, and the other is "Lion Forest" by Wu Guanzhong.

Among them, "Ten Thousand Rivers and Thousand Mountains" uses a technique similar to PS, adding a high-light background to the master's uphill route and the scene of the victory meeting on the top of the mountain.

"Lion Grove" is a bunch of chaotic lines and color dots. It can only be called "color ink" even if it is a traditional Chinese painting.

Both paintings are currently deviant, so the price is not high, but as the artist's reputation grows, these two paintings will become the first works of their innovative methods.

Significance.

The thoughtful choice made both the manager and Gu Kailai frown. Young people really like this kind of unconventional things.

Conscience of heaven and earth, "The Lion Forest" is really new, it is the work of Master Wu in [-].

However, "Thousands of Waters and Thousand Mountains" means "Thousands of Rivers and Thousand Mountains are just waiting for leisure", which is the masterpiece of Master Li in [-].

In fact, Zhou Zhi didn't know much about painting and calligraphy, so buying these two paintings was purely to save face for the manager and to start a good deal for the future.

Qianlong famille rose vase, Ming Hehe Erxian General Jar, and a long-necked vase for Shuchuan Gongmei as Ming Dynasty folk kiln.

This bottle does not conform to the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty in terms of shape. The belly of the bottle is relatively short and the neck is made of string patterns, and the lines of the long neck are not beautiful at all. Yes, except for the beautiful opening and the regular shape of the vessel, which has the characteristics of an official kiln, there is almost nothing worthy of praise.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Shuchuan Gongmei's judgment that it was fired in a folk kiln in the Ming Dynasty.

But it was precisely because of these "defects" of this bottle that Zhou Zhi recognized it at a glance. He had seen it in the Hangzhou Museum in his previous life.

Southern Song Dynasty official kiln string pattern long neck bottle.

Although it is classified as something from the Ming Dynasty, it is also divided into early Ming and late Ming. The price of this thing is also the most expensive among the three pieces of porcelain, two thousand.

The remaining two pieces are high-quality goods here because they are too in good condition, and they also generate a part of the premium. The Qianlong famille rose bottle costs [-] yuan, and the Ming Hehe Erxian general jar costs [-] yuan.

Six thousand and six things were removed from the four items, which was why Zhou Zhi didn't dare to bring Jiang Shuyi here. If she knew that Zhou Zhi dared to spend money like this, she would definitely be scared.

Zhang Lu was not under any pressure, because he had no concept of money at all, and at the same time he was very interested in the things that Zhou Zhi showed him.

At this point, Zhou Zhi's savings from a while ago, the foundation of a ten thousand yuan household, is basically completely wiped out.

It's also because there are good things everywhere now, it's really hard to give up.

After carefully packing the things into the brocade box prepared by the manager, Zhou Zhi, Zhang Lu and Gu Kailai bid farewell to Chi Xueli, which can be regarded as a long-term farewell.

Chi Xueli told Zhou Zhi to study hard, and Gu Kailai was even more frightened by Zhou Zhi's big purchases. Of course not this time, but the two tomes "Song History" and "Zizhi Tongjian Changbian". She earnestly told him that his studies were the most important thing, and that he had to cross the threshold of university before everything would be fine.

"Let's go." Zhang Lu suggested.

"Let's go?" Zhou Zhi was a little confused: "There are so many people passing by in Chunxi, and we are carrying porcelain..."

"Then sit down." Zhang Lu pointed to a bench beside the road.

"Oh, that's good." Zhou Zhi was a little confused, and just sat for a long time: "Or like this, there are Lingtangyuan and Longchaoshou nearby. They are all famous snacks. I invite you, thank you Come with me to do some shopping."

"Well, not bad."

Long Chaoshou's business is so good, Zhang Lu still chose Lingtangyuan.

Lingtangyuan also sells not only glutinous rice balls, but also Yeerba, miscellaneous sauce noodles, and sweet water noodles.

Zhang Lu ate a glutinous rice ball, and suddenly said to Zhou Zhi who was scooping up a glutinous rice ball and was about to eat it: "I also wrote to Shu Yi."

The glutinous rice balls in Zhou Zhi's spoon fell into the bowl at once.

"Not only me, but also Zhang Weiran."

Zhou Zhi was so shocked that he couldn't help but began to use nonsense to cover up his state of mind: "It's probably reasonable for the few of us to be able to talk, at least...that...taste...is the same?"

"We also know that Shu Yi actually likes you." Zhang Lu buried his head in eating the glutinous rice balls again: "But it's her right to like whoever she likes, and it's our right to whoever we like, right?"

Zhou Zhi still hadn't recovered from the aftermath of the shock, and felt his head buzzing: "So, what... should I be thankful or proud?"
