Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 376 Don't Eat This Set
Yan Laokou stood up excitedly. No matter whether it was a chicken foot or a rabbit head, if he took it to the night market, he could always get more food in exchange.

Seeing Chu nodding forward, he hurriedly said, "I'll wait" and went to his room to get something.

Just waiting for him to take out a box, the first uncle and the second uncle had just arrived.

But what surprised Chu Xiangqian was that Yan Laokou just smiled and said hello, then put the box on the table regardless.

Chu Qianqian quickly glanced at Yi Zhonghai and saw that he seemed quite surprised. After thinking about it for a moment, he realized that the three old men might have discussed how to exchange food from their own hands because they were really short of food.

Seeing this, the second uncle simply took out a palm-sized red cloth bag from his pocket.

He untied it and revealed a bunch of copper coins. He smiled and said to Chu Qianqian, "Qianqian, the second uncle has been waiting for you for two months. Please help me see if these coins are real."

He didn't reach out to take it forward, but looked at the elder Yi Zhonghai.

Seeing this, the third uncle smiled and said, "Lao Yi, didn't you say that you have a piece of heirloom Hetian Jade? If you brought it over, please show it to the front."

Yi Zhonghai's expression darkened, but he was still a little embarrassed.

But the food shortage lasted for half a year, and no one knew how long this situation would last, so we had to put down our dignity first.

He nodded and took out a Hetian jade wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket and placed it on the table in front of Chu Qianqian.

"Go forward, please give us an estimate. Your aunt and I can still hold on, but the deaf old lady in the backyard is old and doesn't eat good food. I'm worried that when the weather gets colder, she might not be able to hold on. But this winter.”

Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes after hearing this. It still smelled like moral kidnapping.

But putting aside his prejudice and dissatisfaction with Yi Zhonghai, the old man was indeed taking care of the deaf old lady.

How many unfilial sons take their parents' pensions but don't even take care of them.

Compared to such an unfilial son who was struck by lightning, Yi Zhonghai could definitely be considered a good person.

Chu Xiangqian was not stupid. Although he couldn't stand the old man's sanctimonious appearance, when people mentioned the lonely old man, if he didn't want to take care of the irrelevant deaf old lady, he shouldn't show it.

When I picked up the jade pendant, the reminder of +18 gold coupons already sounded in my mind.

After confirming that the jade pendant was an old item, Chu Xiangqian carefully checked the condition of the jade.

But after looking at it for a few times, my heart suddenly moved, Damn, this jade pendant is definitely not an heirloom of the Yi family.

He raised his head and glanced at Yi Zhonghai, "Master Yi, tell me the truth. Is this jade pendant your family heirloom, or was it bought with money during the war?"

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but the old guy was also an old man and quickly calmed down.

He showed an awkward smile and said, "Go forward, your eyesight is really amazing."

After saying that, he explained, "This jade pendant is indeed not my family's treasure, but the old lady was embarrassed to say that she was greedy, so she ordered me to say that it is my family's thing."

After hearing this, the second uncle and the third uncle actually nodded at the same time, as if the deaf old lady had something good in her hand, and that was what she should do.

Chu Qianqian felt nervous, secretly thinking that he had better not get involved with the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai.

So as not to be worried about these two people anytime.

Putting the jade pendant on the table, "Okay, when I come back in the evening, I will make three taels of meat for the old lady to satisfy her craving. As for your thing, you'd better take it back."

I don’t want to be said to be greedy for money and disrespectful of the elderly and the young. "

Yi Zhonghai was even more embarrassed now. The old lady and himself thought that if they gave Chu Xiangqian some benefits, this boy would do something to him and the old lady in the future.

Unexpectedly, a piece of Ming Dynasty palace jade pendant would be looked down upon by others.It can be seen that this kid is really developed now.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care about Yi Zhonghai, and even the third uncle and the second uncle ignored him.

He looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late. I have to find some time to rush to the forest farm so as not to miss the bus."

After saying that, Chu Xiangqian stood up, but the second uncle and the third uncle had spent the past two months collecting copper coins and gadgets. If they did not trade with Chu Xiangqian, it would be equivalent to losing part of the money in their hands.

He hurriedly pulled Chu Qianqian, and then said to Yi Zhonghai, "Lao Yi, Qiang Qian has promised to get the old lady food. You should go and talk to the old lady first to make her happy."

Yi Zhonghai knew that he was disliked, but he did not dare to offend Chu Xiangqian, Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong at the same time.

He could only nod awkwardly, pick up the jade pendant and go out.

After he left, Chu Qianqian sneered and sat down again.

When Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong saw this, they didn't realize that Chu Xiangqian didn't want to see Yi Zhonghai.

The two of them looked happy, secretly thinking that they might be able to make a fuss and improve their status by one level.

Rather, the second uncle becomes the first uncle, and the third uncle becomes the second uncle.

As for Yi Zhonghai, it was natural to kick him out of the position of the steward and find a young man to be the third uncle.

"Go forward, don't argue with Lao Yi. He is a good person, but he is too intrusive."

Chu Qianqian curled his lips and said secretly that you three are all the same, not good people.

I asked the third uncle, and after getting his permission, I opened the box on the table.

Seeing that it was full of copper coins, Chu Xiangqian just glanced around and understood what Yan Fugui was thinking.

This old man knows how to calculate and will definitely pick the cheapest one.

And the price I gave him before was one real copper coin for 1 cent.After two transactions, Yan Laokou was looking for those copper coins that were huge and truly antiques.

You can tell at a glance that buying these kinds of copper coins definitely didn't cost much.

But it doesn't matter to Chu Xiangqian. Anyway, as long as he can increase the gold volume, he will take it.

Besides, a copper coin only costs 1 cent, so you can take whatever you have.

As long as the golden circle outside Novice Village expands and new wild areas, mines, and new economical timber emerge, the one who will make the most money in the end will be himself.

Chu Qianqian reached out and touched the copper coins on the top layer of the box one by one. The sound of +1+1+1 came from his ears.

After looking at the 80 copper coins on the top level, it turned out to be a mess. There really wasn't a gold coupon worth more than 1 point.

In the past, I would have been excited about these 80 points, but now, the 80 points gold coupon only increases the aperture by 0.8 meters.

Fortunately, the box is quite deep. There are 400 copper coins in the whole box.

After Chu Xiangqian read it all, he gave Yan Fugui a thumbs up and said, "Third uncle, I think you have really achieved certain attainments in the appraisal of copper coins in the late Qing Dynasty.

Surprisingly, none of them have a market price of more than 1 cent, and none of them are fake. "

Yan Fugui smiled at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "That's right, no matter what, you, the third uncle, are a learned person. As long as you are willing to study hard, there is no truth that you cannot learn."

Chu Qianqian smiled and said, "I think your box of copper coins must not have cost more than 10 yuan, right?"

Yan Fugui's heart tightened, and he secretly thought that this kid is really awesome, he can actually see this.

Chu Qianqian rolled his eyes at him, "Tell me, you must have received these copper coins from a family, and you must have kept some goodies in your own hands.

Even if you don’t want to sell it, take it out to give me some insights and help you take a look at it. "

Yan Fugui thought for a while, and he really couldn't decide how many copper coins he had.

"Wait, I'll get it right away." After the third uncle returned to the house, Chu Xiangqian opened the red cloth that the second uncle had placed on the table.

At this glance, one could tell that the two old men were going to extremes.

Yan Laokou just wants to invest less and win through volume.

But the center of the bangs is full of energy and always wants to make a lot of money.

Among the more than thirty copper coins, there were actually two cloth coins with three holes and round feet. After scanning around, I saw several rare coins.

Reaching out to pick it up, a series of sounds like +12+9+5+21 sounded in my mind.

Of the last thirty or so coins, 23 were genuine, and the gold coupons also increased by a full 310 points.

Especially the three-hole cloth Zhao Guo three-hole round-leg cloth coin with a +21 points gold coupon. Chu Xiangqian estimated that it would be worth at least two to three million in the future.

However, he doesn't care whether the second uncle will suffer a loss. Anyway, his standard is 1 dime for 1 gold coupon.

If you feel you are at a loss, do you want to sell or not?

"Second uncle, I want these 23 pieces. How about giving you 31 yuan?"

Liu Haizhong nodded depressedly and swept aside the 11 copper coins that Chu Xiangqian didn't like.

He asked with some reluctance, "Go forward, I asked an expert to take a look. Is there really something wrong with these 11 pieces?"

"Then you'd better stay away from that expert as soon as possible." After saying that, Chu Qianqian picked up a Qixiang heavy treasure with a diameter of three fingers out of 11.

He said to Liu Haizhong, "Did that person tell you that this one costs at least tens or hundreds of dollars?"

Liu Haizhong swallowed and nodded sadly, not knowing that he had been deceived.

Chu Qianqian casually pinched the copper coin, and with a snap of his fingers, he pinched the thick copper coin into two pieces.

Then, with a painful expression on his bangs, he pointed at the broken crack and said, "See clearly, where is the copper here?"

Liu Haizhong looked over carefully and soon saw that the fracture of the copper coin was gray. Based on his experience as a level 6 blacksmith, he immediately knew that it must be lead.

He couldn't help but curse.

Yan Laokou just walked out of his bedroom with 4 copper coins and felt secretly happy when he saw the appearance of bangs.

Chu Xiangqian looked at the four copper coins of Yan Laokou, including a Tiancheng Yuanbao from the Five Dynasties Later Tang Dynasty. Chu Xiangqian felt that this thing was unreliable.

It looks a bit new, and is extremely well preserved, with not even a trace of patina.

But when I just took it in my hand, I heard the sound of +19 gold coupons.

Although this copper coin is not very valuable, the appearance alone makes it worth buying.

Moreover, the third uncle is much smarter than the second uncle, so he just throws money at it.

The damage exceeded his expectations, and the third uncle would never sell it directly.

"Third uncle, how about I give you 20 yuan for this one?"

Yan Fugui and Liu Haizhong were stunned at the same time. Yan Laokou was overjoyed after regaining his composure, "Go forward, is this one real?"

Chu Qianqian nodded, "The Tiancheng Yuanbao from the Five Dynasties Later Tang Dynasty is not very valuable on the market, but it is very well preserved. If it were other experts, they would definitely not be sure and would not dare to buy it.

But for me, if I bet 20 yuan, even if I lose the bet, I can still eat. "

Yan Fugui originally wanted to raise the price, but when he heard what Chu Xiangqian said, he knew that if he raised the price, Chu Xiangqian might not buy it.

Of course, Yan Fugui also knew that Chu Xiangqian probably said that on purpose.

But he didn't dare to bet. Besides, Yan Laokou still knew how to give up when things get good.

I only spent a few cents on this copper coin, but I made as much as 20 cents, which is already a huge profit.

Chu Xiangqian had no interest in the remaining three.

In the end, Yan Lao was given 51 yuan, while Liu Haizhong got 31 yuan. Liu Haizhong was so angry that he looked at Yan Fugui, who was grinning crookedly. The more he looked at it, the more unhappy he became.

As for buying wild game, Chu Xiangqian himself had said before that living animals might not be found in the mountains.

In this case, it is better to wait until he actually catches game.

Putting the copper coins in a green leather schoolbag, when I left the third uncle's house, I saw more than 20 people standing in the front yard.

Chu Xiangqian had no time to pay attention to these people. He didn't realize that just now he spent money to buy copper coins instead of exchanging grain or dried meat for the second uncle and the third uncle.

I went home directly and threw all the copper coins in my schoolbag into the warehouse in Novice Village.

The aperture outside Xinshou Village suddenly expanded by 7 meters, reaching 578.1 meters.

On the three sides of the southeast and west, except for the expansion of the sea, hills and grasslands, there are no new refresh points.

On the north side of the village, the number of rubber trees actually increased twice more, to hundreds.

From 6 tons per day, it has increased to 7 tons per day.

Chu Xiangqian was secretly happy. The more rubber trees there were, the more he would earn.

And even if you don't sell it, if you keep it and wait for the price to rise sharply some year before selling it, you will make more money.

Of course, if calculated based on inflation, 1 yuan ten years from now may only be worth three to five thousand yuan in this era.

Finally, when the natural rubber suddenly plummets one day, I will stop buying it and keep saving it. When the price goes back up, I will continue to sell it.

A few years or more later, prices plummeted again, and inventories began to accumulate again.

In this way, although you can't make huge profits, you won't lose money and it's stable.
-
Went into Xinshou Village to collect all 1 rubber trees. It was already almost 8 o'clock in the morning.

Those who had to go to work left in a hurry, while those who didn't have to go to work didn't dare to drag Chu Qianqian and insist on his help getting food.

Chu Qianqian opened the rice vat at home and saw three grain bags inside.

He reached out to pick it up and weighed it in his hand. A bag of 20 kilograms of white flour should be all the food that Aiyuan had brought back for him in the past two months.

Put it in a bamboo basket, cover it with newspapers, put it on the back seat of your bicycle when you go out, and take Aiyuan, Aiguo, Aimin and two hunting dogs with you.

He asked Ai Yuan and the other three to take the shuttle bus, while he rode a bicycle with Da Zhuang and Hong Niu for an hour and a half, and finally arrived at the commune.

I found a donkey cart in advance, and by the way, I rode a bicycle out for ten minutes.

After returning, in addition to 60 kilograms of flour, the bicycle also contained fat sheep that had been processed at both ends and packed tightly in bags.

After waiting for half an hour, the shuttle arrived.The four brothers and sisters arrived at the forest farm before 11 noon.

When the children at the entrance of the village saw Chu Xiang and his four siblings returning, they rushed to greet them, or ran into the village to call for help.

The second uncle and the third uncle were not even able to work. When they saw Chu Qianqian, they stuttered when they spoke in excitement.
