Siheyuan starts from the stationmaster

Chapter 53
After he finished speaking, he also wrote two glasses of wine full, raised his glasses and said solemnly: "Little boy, I am a poor boy and rarely obey people. You, a young man, can be so sensible. It makes me wake up. A toast to you."

Bai Zirui quickly picked up his wine glass and said modestly: "Master Hou, I don't dare to do this! You are a shame for the younger generation. You have eaten more salt than I have traveled. I have to learn more from you." !"

The two of them toasted together and drank it all. Looking at Bai Zirui, Poor Hou felt that he was very good-natured, eager to learn and make progress, and he was a little moved to accept apprentices. He heard that the descendants of the Guan family in Qianmenlouzi had an apprentice, so he should do the same. Accept an apprentice to pass on his mantle.

He and Bai Zirui have only met twice, so I don't know if he is the material for this bowl of rice, so let's investigate him carefully.He pretended to ask casually: "Little boy, did you read the few books I gave you last time? I'll test you. It just so happens that you got the missing corner Daqi Tongbao, which is an ancient copper coin in our country. Then tell me Let’s talk about the origin, development and evolution of our country’s ancient coins.”

Bai Zirui replied calmly: "Currency is the product of commodity exchange. my country is the first country in the world to use coinage. In the Yin and Shang Dynasties 3000 years ago, there were "unwritten copper shells", which are the most primitive metal currency.

In the Western Zhou Dynasty, in addition to shell coins, some metal weighing coins such as loose copper blocks and copper ingots without a certain shape were circulated. my country's coin creation is the most in the world.

The earliest currency that appeared at the end of primitive society was physical currency: nomadic people used livestock and animal skins to realize currency functions, while agricultural people used grain, cloth, agricultural tools, pottery, seashells, pearls and jade as the earliest real currency.

As we all know, the ancient physical currency with wide circulation is "bei".As real currency, cattle, sheep, pigs and other livestock cannot be separated, grains will rot, there are too few pearls and jade, and knives and shovels are heavy, so the real currency is finally concentrated in seashells.

Seashells can be used as necklaces, are valuable in use, and are easy to carry and count, so they are selected as the main currency in the long-term commodity exchange. ...

Ancient Chinese coins sprouted in the Xia Dynasty, (initially using shell coins as the unit of exchange) originated in the Shang Dynasty, developed in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and unified in the Ying Qin Dynasty. It has gone through a long history of more than 4000 years.

The integrity of my country's currency system, the richness of categories, the clarity of context, and the broad connotation are unmatched by any country. "

Bai Zirui's eloquent account of the origin, origin and historical evolution of ancient coins made Broken Hou Ting nod frequently.

He waited for Bai Zirui to finish speaking and said: "Little boy, it seems that you have completely memorized the knowledge about ancient coins in the book I gave you, which is very good, but the memorization is only on paper, so let me tell you How to identify ancient coins.

The identification of ancient coins requires a rich accumulation of knowledge, focusing on observation and thinking, careful comparison, and combining with historical documents to find some theoretical basis for reference.

Ancient coins can be identified from many aspects such as copper quality, rust color, coin inscriptions, sound, smell, and version.

As for its value, it can be evaluated from the aspects of historical value, surviving quantity, cultural value, and quality. "

In this way, one of them was willing to teach and the other was willing to learn. They didn't even eat food and went from daytime to nightfall before ending this special teaching method.

Bai Zirui found a pen and paper from the broken house, and wrote down a lot of notes. These are his years of experience. When he goes back, he will absorb these experiences into his own knowledge.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Bai Zirui bid farewell to Poor Hou, and said sincerely: "Master Hou, your teaching has really benefited me a lot, I will come to ask you for advice more often in the future, and I hope you will give me your advice. "

Poor Hou nodded and said, "Okay! Boy, if you encounter anything you don't understand, just come to me."

After bidding farewell to Poor Hou, he got on his bicycle and rode towards the courtyard house in Nanluoguxiang. At the entrance of the alley, he saw He Yuzhu and Nan Yi from a distance, leading a middle-aged man in his 40s to look around and wait for others at the entrance of the alley. .

Seeing him coming back on his bicycle, the eyes of the two showed surprise. Bai Zirui stopped in front of them and asked, "Brother, Brother Nan, are you waiting for me?"

Nan Yi nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes... yes! Brother Bai, we are waiting for you to talk about something."

After he finished speaking, he pointed his eyes at the middle-aged man in his 40s. After a little thought, Bai Zirui realized that someone asked him for a banquet. He rolled out a bicycle and a radio to the person as agreed, and then brought him to talk.

He said to several people: "Siheyuan is not suitable for talking about things. Let's talk in detail in the house I just rented today."

Several people soon came to the house he had just rented in the morning. After the guests and hosts sat down, Nan Yi introduced him and the middle-aged man to each other.

The middle-aged man’s name is Song Changhe, and his son Song Weimin is about to get married. He was introduced to invite Nanyi to a banquet, and everything is basically ready, except for the bicycle issue. He is just an ordinary worker in the factory, even if he has a bicycle ticket It's not his turn either.

After negotiating about asking Nanyi to have a banquet, Nanyi asked if he needed a bicycle and a radio?It was much cheaper than the ones in state-run stores and there was no ticket, which made him happy when he was worrying about bicycles.

After learning that it was an assembled bicycle, he asked Nanyi for help without hesitation. Nanyi took him to the courtyard to find Bai Zirui, but after asking He Yuzhu, he learned that he had gone out in the morning and hadn't come back yet. The three of them waited for him to come back at the entrance of the alley.

After Bai Zirui learned what happened, he said to Song Changhe: "Brother Song, Brother Nan must have told you that my bicycle is assembled, so it is cheaper than the state-owned store, but please rest assured that the quality is guaranteed. Guaranteed, and if you have any problems, you can come to me for free repairs at any time.”

Song Changhe said honestly: "Brother Bai, Master Nan has already told me about assembling the bicycle. How much do you charge for assembling a bicycle?"

Bai Zirui said: "I can assemble the two-eight-bar bicycles of Fenghuang, Yongjiu, and Feige sold in state-owned stores. After all, they are assembled from old parts, and they cost 70 yuan a bike."

Song Changhe nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, at the price Brother Bai said, please help me assemble one. During this period of time, my hair has turned gray from worrying about the bicycle."

After he finished speaking, he quickly pointed out the 7 cards of Great Unity and handed them to Bai Zirui. Bai Zirui waved his hand and said, "Brother Song, don't worry, just pay after you have checked the quality of the bicycle."

After Bai Zirui finished speaking, he stood up, went to the room to pick out some relatively new parts and began to assemble them. Ten minutes later, a 10% new bicycle appeared in front of Song Changhe.

He Yuzhu called Bai Zirui a basin of water to wash the stains on his hands with great eyesight. After washing his hands, he smiled and said, "Brother Song, how about you come and try this car? No, I won't accept it." money."

Song Changhe nodded and started to test the bicycle in the yard. After he stopped for a few laps, he happily gave Bai Zirui a thumbs up and said in praise: "Brother Bai, the bicycle you assembled is really good. , it is labor-saving and light to ride, I want this car."
