Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Director Zhang then notified the manager of the trust store.

Although the two are not in the same system, any unit on the street these days is inseparable from the street office.

The reason Liu Lanshan was able to enter the trust store and get this position was because Deputy Director Liu made connections behind the scenes.

The manager of the trust store is named Zhou Yunshan. He is a little old man who smiles before speaking when he sees people. He looks like a good gentleman.

When he learned that Director Zhang suggested that the trust store fire Liu Lanshan, he was stunned and subconsciously turned to look at Deputy Director Liu.

Jobs in trust stores are very popular. You don't have to work hard in the workshop, you can earn high wages, and you can also have a bit of literary and artistic atmosphere, which can attract the imagination of those little girls with fantasy.

And when you encounter some particularly cheap things, you can pick them up in advance. In order to arrange for Liu Lanshan to come in, Deputy Director Liu specially brought gifts to visit Zhou Yunshan's house, and claimed that Liu Lanshan was his nephew, so Deputy Director Liu would An exception was made to recruit Liu Lanshan, who did not meet the conditions, to the trust store.

Now Director Zhang actually suggests firing Liu Lanshan
The good old Zhou Yunshan didn't know what to do for a while.

Ever since Deputy Director Liu knew Wang Weidong's identity, he realized that this time he was in trouble. He couldn't protect himself, so how could he protect Liu Lanshan again.

At this moment, when Zhou Yunshan's eyes came into contact, dense sweat broke out on his forehead. After taking a long breath, he quickly said: "Yes, yes, Liu Yunshan treated customers with a bad attitude, which has seriously violated the discipline of the trust store and must be fired immediately." !"

customer? It was only then that Zhou Yunshan noticed Wang Weidong. He was also an old manager. Naturally, he knew that the so-called "treating customers with a bad attitude" was just Deputy Director Liu's excuse. I'm afraid the reason why Deputy Director Liu was allowed to "kill relatives for justice" was Still this young man.

of course.

These matters have little to do with him as a trust store manager. Since the leaders have issued suggestions, he only needs to accept them happily.

After Zhou Yunshan figured out the joints, he coughed twice and looked at Liu Lanshan with a cold face: "Comrade Liu Lanshan, now I have received a report from the masses that you have made serious mistakes at work. Now, in the name of the trust store manager, I I’m going to fire you. You won’t be able to come to work starting from tomorrow. I will issue relevant procedures to you after reporting them to the superior.”

Liu Lanshan was shocked when he heard this. Although he had known for a long time that such a result would happen, it was still difficult to accept it once it happened.

Over the years, he has made a lot of money from his position as a salesperson in a trust store. When he encounters some unskilled sellers, he will always find ways to lure the sellers out and take back the antiques at a low price.

Moreover, he recently got a girlfriend.

The girl was a female worker in a textile factory. Although she kept saying that she was attracted by him, Liu Lanshan knew in her heart that the other party was attracted by his position.

It's all over now.

Just because of this damn young man.

Anger welled up in Liu Lanshan's heart, he clenched his hands tightly, and his eyes began to turn red.

Wang Weidong originally didn't intend to argue with a little salesperson, but seeing Liu Lanshan's expression, he couldn't help but frown.

He knows very well that a villain like Liu Lanshan is similar to Xu Damao in the courtyard. As long as you don't kill him, he will not continue to cause trouble for you.

Wang Weidong is now the owner of Lanhua Automobile Factory. Although he is afraid of trouble, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and Wang Weidong will not let someone who is hostile to him leave so easily.

He gently placed his left leg drooping on his right leg and looked at Zhou Yunshan: "Manager Zhou, why did I hear that Liu Lanshan's hands and feet are not clean on weekdays and he likes to intercept customers who are selling things?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yunshan's expression changed drastically.

As the manager of a trust store, he was very aware of the practices of the following salesmen. However, the trust store did not belong to him, so he did not pay attention to it. This had become an unspoken rule in the trust store.

It's just that the unspoken rules also mean that they cannot be said on the table.

Once things get serious, the trust store will definitely experience a big earthquake.

If someone else said this, Zhou Yunshan could naturally ignore it, but looking at the attitude of the subdistrict office director towards Wang Weidong, the old manager immediately realized that something was wrong.

He quickly stood up and said loudly: "Sir, our trust store also has clues about Liu Lanshan's illegal operations, but we haven't started taking action yet. Now that I have received your report, I will immediately hand over these matters to the street police station for supervision. Comrades from the police station launched an investigation into Liu Lanshan."

These words were like a thunderbolt ringing in Liu Lanshan's ears, making his head roar.

He knew very well that if such illegal operations were not pursued, everyone could treat it as nothing happened and he would just be fired. He could look for a new job when he had the opportunity.

If he is really transferred to the street police station, with Zhou Yunshan's cooperation, then the things he did will definitely be exposed to the world soon, and he will have to squat for at least several years.

In other words, this life will be ruined.

Liu Lanshan never imagined that just because he showed off his authority once, he would ruin the rest of his life.

He lay limp on the ground like a puddle of mud.

Wang Weidong did not feel sympathy for Liu Lanshan's experience.

This kind of person relies on his power to suppress customers repeatedly and should be punished long ago.

After such a fuss, Wang Weidong also lost interest in continuing to visit the trust store. After saying hello to Director Zhang of the subdistrict office, he left the trust store with his hands behind his back.

He originally planned to go to the department store to pick out a suitable gift, but before he could reach the bicycle, the old man Chen Xuanming came out and blocked Wang Weidong's way.

"Comrade, you went into the trust store to buy gifts, right?" Chen Xuanming said with a smile.

Wang Weidong had a good impression of this old gentleman. He stopped and said, "Yes, my godson is one month old today. I originally wanted to choose a jade pendant for him, but who knew that the salesman made a scene and lost his interest? .”

"Oh, you young man still doesn't understand antiques. Most of the things like jade pendants are dug out from the ground. After being buried in the ground for so long, it is inevitable that there will be some cold things in them. Where can I give them to children? Child." Chen Xuanming explained quickly.

Wang Weidong narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Don't tell me, it really makes sense.

The reason why the ancients used jade pendants to suppress disasters was because those jade pendants were newly released.

The jade pendants of this era are all antiques, and their origins are not so glorious. If placed next to children, instead of being able to suppress disasters, they may cause trouble.

"Thank you, old gentleman. If it weren't for you, I would have done something wrong with my kindness today." Wang Weidong said with a smile, turned around and wanted to leave.

But Chen Xuanming strode forward again and stopped Wang Weidong.

Wang Weidong saw that he was hesitant to speak, holding a wooden box in his hand, and immediately understood what he meant. "You want to sell me antiques?"

Chen Xuanming scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "It's a coincidence. The thing in my hand is just right for children."

As he spoke, Chen Xuanming pulled Wang Weidong to a secluded place and opened the wooden box.

Inside is a silver longevity lock. The craftsmanship is very superb. There are various exquisite patterns on it, and there are several bells hanging below.

But this thing didn't look like a valuable antique. Wang Weidong frowned.

Chen Xuanming seemed to notice his concerns and said frankly: "This was made by Zhu Bishan, a craftsman from the Yuan Dynasty."

Wang Weidong's expression became solemn when he heard the name Zhu Bishan.

The use of silverware in China has a long history. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, silverware was deeply loved by the nobles because of its ability to ward off evil spirits and avoid poison.

But unlike scarce materials such as gold and jade, silver metal is so common that it can even be used as currency to circulate among the people.

No matter in which era, things are rare and valuable, so the silverware that won the first opportunity was not endowed with artistic color like bronze and jade. Instead, like copper coins, it became a symbol of the world.

In this case, craftsmen and masters naturally do not spend energy on silverware, so there are very few silver antiques, and there are only a few well-known craftsmen or masters.

But the situation changed in the Yuan Dynasty. Those people who came from the grasslands worshiped silverware and were proud to use silverware. When there was demand, there was output. Therefore, some series of beautifully crafted silverware were produced, and a number of famous silverware were also created. Master craftsman.

Zhu Bishan is one of the best.

Zhu Bishan was originally a painter, but later came to Suzhou and Hangzhou to engage in the production of silverware. He became famous for his carving of silverware and was famous for his skill in making silver cups.

Every time he made a Yincha, he would leave his signature on the bottom of his belly and mouth. Many high-ranking officials and celebrities were proud to get his works.

It's just that the Yuan Dynasty was too long ago, and very few of the Yincha made by Zhu Bishan have been handed down, so contemporary people don't know that there is such a master craftsman.

Hearing that the longevity lock in the box turned out to be the work of Zhu Bishan, Wang Weidong suddenly became interested.

However, Wang Weidong did not listen to one side or the other, but looked at the longevity lock in the box and said, "Can I get started?"

In the antique shop, if you want to appreciate other people's antiques, you need to first obtain the other person's consent.

Chen Xuanming has been collecting antiques all year round, and of course he understands this truth. He nodded quickly and said: "Of course."

Wang Weidong slowly picked up the longevity lock. As soon as he picked it up, he felt a unique sense of vicissitudes of history. This kind of feeling can only be found on antiques that have lasted for thousands of years. Even the most skilled counterfeiters can do it. Not coming out.

This feeling is very mysterious, and most people cannot detect it at all.

Wang Weidong narrowed his eyes, as if he had returned to a thousand years ago. It took him a long time to get rid of that feeling.

Although he was sure that this thing was genuine, Wang Weidong still turned the longevity lock over, and sure enough he saw Zhu Bishan's signature on the back of the longevity lock.

It's just that the signature in regular script has been somewhat blurred by the ravages of time.

Although this thing has a low reputation and is far less famous than Yuan blue and white, the number of extant ones is far less than that of Yuan blue and white, so it is worth a lot of money.

Wang Weidong took a deep breath, put the longevity lock back into the box, raised his head and looked at Chen Xuanming: "Old sir, how do you plan to sell it?"

"Sell? Who said I was going to sell it? I gave it to you." Chen Xuanming looked surprised.

Now it was Wang Weidong's turn to be confused.

"You want to give it to me, are you kidding me?" Wang Weidong frowned.

"Are you kidding? As an old teacher, I never joke!" Chen Xuanming seemed to feel that the explanation was not clear, and said with a smile: "I brought this thing with me today. I was originally planning to sell it to a trust store, but it went through The dispute between you and Liu Lanshan."

"You may not know that I am a frequent visitor to the trust store. Because I am short of money, I often just look at antiques. When other salespeople see me, they won't say much. After all, I am very disciplined in the trust store. , It will never disturb other customers, and every time after viewing the antiques, the antiques will be placed back to their original positions, without causing extra workload to the sales staff.

But every time Liu Lanshan saw me, he would stare blankly, as if I had broken into his living room.

Of course, because there is no regulation in the trust store, all customers who enter need to buy antiques, so there is nothing he can do against me.

It’s just that this kid is too bad. Seeing that he couldn’t control me with rules, he thought of a crooked trick.

Once, when I just picked up a chicken cup, he suddenly appeared behind me and accused me of breaking the chicken cup.

Just kidding, I, Chen Xuanming, have been exposed to antiques for so many years and have always regarded antiques as my life. How could I possibly damage the chicken vat cup? When I bought the chicken vat cup from a trust store, the bottom was somewhat damaged.

Faced with this kind of false accusation, I certainly would not give in, and I started to quarrel with Liu Lanshan at that time.

However, I have no evidence that I did not damage the chicken vat cup. At the same time, the people at the trust store, after acquiring the incomplete chicken vat cup, did not mark the damage in the record book out of guilty conscience.

The salespeople also stood by Liu Lanshan.

Moreover, Liu Lanshan threatened me that if I didn’t buy back the chicken cup at the price, he would send me to the police station and notify the junior high school of the steel rolling mill. So I had no choice but to pay 20 yuan and buy it. Got that chicken cup.

So, today, after seeing Liu Lanshan being sent to the fence by you, I was so moved that I wanted to give you this longevity lock to express my gratitude. "

Wang Weidong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This old gentleman was really a sweet-tempered man.

"Old sir, this thing is too expensive. I can't ask you for it for free. Let me give you 100 yuan for it."

Antiques are not valuable in this day and age, and calligraphy and paintings by Bada Shanren only cost a few hundred yuan. Wang Weidong's 100 yuan for such an unknown antique is already a lot.

Chen Xuanming waved his hand quickly: "If you do this, wouldn't I really become a profiteer? I am a cultural person and cannot do that kind of thing."

Faced with 100 yuan, he was not moved. Chen Xuanming's performance made Wang Weidong feel a little superior.

He pondered for a moment: "Okay, I will keep this longevity lock for now. When I get a good antique later, I will give you one as well."
