Chapter 43 Things are too cheap

"I saw Zhong Tao. He was in the home appliance section. That pile of garbage was full of all kinds of home appliances!"

"Yes, yes, did you see those rows of old TVs? Zhong Tao is right next to them!"

The sharp-eyed audience quickly spotted Zhong Tao, and the drone quickly zoomed in on the camera. At the same time, the program team also rushed over.

"We have all the quality home appliances you want here." Non-Mainstream skillfully threw away the cigarette butt and stomped on the ground to put it out, and then lit a cigarette butt as well.

What many people don’t know is that for poor families, the scrap station is also known as the “Treasure Shop”.

The reason why there is such a nickname is because there are all kinds of strange things in the scrapyard. There is nothing you can't think of and nothing you can't buy.

Like expired food, study notes, half-used rolls of paper, old fitness equipment, and half-discarded home appliances.
There are all these things in the scrap station, and they are collected here from trash cans everywhere; these valuable things are often collected and sold by people at the scrap station.

Of course, among all kinds of strange "junk", scrapped household appliances have the highest value, which is also Zhong Tao's main goal of shopping this time.

"TV, if it has sound and picture, it will cost 200, and if it has no sound, it will cost 50."

"We also have computers here. The ones that can be turned on start at 500, and the ones that can't be turned on are 200 and you can take away a set."

When Non-Mainstream gave Zhong Tao a quick quotation, the cameraman finally arrived out of breath, and the scene switched from a bird's-eye view back to normal shooting.

After hearing this unconventional quotation, the audience felt that their views were once again shaken.

Nowadays, when everyone buys a TV, they look at the size, resolution, color gamut, refresh rate and other data. Selling and selling non-mainstream TVs is simple and crude.

If you can see people and sound on the TV, it's one level, and if there's no picture or sound, it's another level.
This simple and crude classification method made the audience happy.

"If the TV has no picture and no sound, what a shame if I buy it home. Let alone 50 yuan, why don't I buy it for 5 yuan?"

"The same goes for the computer. It can't be turned on. Should I buy it home and use it as an ashtray?"

"I don't understand TV, but I understand computers. Even if the computer doesn't turn on, the various parts inside are still worth looking at. Even searching for such used computers is a kind of fun in itself."

"Does Zhong Tao want to buy a new computer? As a level [-] figure, I won't be sleepy anymore!"

The novel selling method of the garbage dump made the audience discuss it with gusto, and everyone even felt that buying things at the garbage dump seemed more interesting than buying things in normal stores.

Looking for things here feels like panning for gold in the sand.

"Master Hou, what if Zhong Tao plans to buy a computer and TV?"

Assistant Xiao Chen came to Hou Yao's side with a sad face.

In his opinion, if today's young people have a computer, they can really stay at home for the rest of their lives.

"If he buys it, let him buy it." Hou Yao seemed unconcerned.

He is really not afraid of Zhong Tao buying a computer.

Even if you are lucky enough to find a usable computer at this junkyard, you still need to have an internet connection when you go back.

You know, the program team's network is only possible with special technology. It would be great if there was a phone signal in Taoyuan Village, let alone the Internet.

"Master Hou, Zhong Tao can still play stand-alone games even if there is no Internet." Assistant Xiao Chen still said bitterly: "Just like me, if you install several TB stand-alone games on my computer, I can also stay in the village. Ten or eight years.”

"If Zhong Tao really buys a computer to play stand-alone games, we can confiscate it directly." Hou Yao said calmly.

Ok?
Assistant Xiao Chen was startled.

That's right, how could he forget this!

The "Metamorphosis" program team has the right to confiscate electronic equipment, which naturally includes computers!
Zhong Tao bought a computer and was about to turn on the game when he got home. The program team rushed out and confiscated the computer. Perfect!
Assistant Xiao Chen was frantically adding drama in his mind, but Zhong Tao didn't even think about buying a computer.

In Zhong Tao's opinion, rural life is much more interesting than playing games.

"I'm buying a refrigerator." Zhong Tao interrupted the non-mainstream introduction and said directly.refrigerator?
Assistant Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment.

Zhong Tao actually came here for this thing.

"Why does Zhong Tao buy a refrigerator?"

"Zhong Tao has already calculated the installed configuration of my special cat, but he doesn't even look at the computer?"

"I feel that if I want to improve my quality of life, a computer is still indispensable. Zhong Tao is a little confused. The refrigerator is not very useful. There are frozen ice cream and vegetables and meat. Zhong Tao can marinate meat, too. It’s no use, and the refrigerator will become even more useless when the temperature drops after a while.”

The audience was a bit controversial about Zhong Tao's choice of refrigerator regardless of the computer, and even non-mainstream people were slightly startled.

According to non-mainstream experience, young people like Zhong Tao most likely come here to buy computers.
"The refrigerator, I have to look for it"

The non-mainstream threw down his cigarette butts again and prepared to get into the garbage mountain.

"No, I want the freezer type."

Zhong Tao looked at the foot of the e-waste mountain, where a small freezer of about 1.5 meters stood.

Compared with single-door and double-door refrigerators, this kind of freezer is often more cost-effective.

Non-mainstream quickly turned the freezer over, patted it like a watermelon, and pulled the freezer door to make sure it could be opened.

"Three hundred." Non-mainstream quoted the price.

Since the freezer door can be opened, this freezer is worth three hundred. The pricing at the scrap yard is so simple and crude.

Of course, whether this thing can be cooled when you get it home depends entirely on luck.

Zhong Tao narrowed his eyes and walked to the freezer, reached into the freezer, and then skillfully touched the back cover of the refrigerator, opened it and checked the circuit inside.

"Three hundred is fine, but you have to give me a free refill of fluoride," Zhong Tao said.

The so-called "fluoride filling" actually means fluoride filling, which is a commonly used refrigerant in old-fashioned freezers and old-fashioned air conditioners.

For an old freezer like this, the paint is peeling off and the iron sheets are rusty. It has been used for at least ten years, so it is naturally necessary to fill it with fluoride.

"Sure." Non-mainstream saw that Zhong Tao paid readily, so he didn't bargain much with Zhong Tao.

"We have a refrigerator at home!"

Yaya looked at the freezer and pinched the corner of her clothes, her eyes bright.

If the unconventional uncle in front of her didn't look weird, Yaya would have wanted to jump up and cheer.

To be honest, Yaya doesn’t know how much a freezer can improve her family’s life, but Yaya knows that the richest village chief’s home has a refrigerator!

That thing is amazing. When you turn it on, air-conditioning comes out. Yaya was so envious after seeing it once at the village chief's house. She didn't expect that her house would also have a refrigerator today.

This feeling is like a child who would envy his friend's flashy toy when he was a child. Although he doesn't know what the toy is for or how to play with it, he still wants it.

One day my parents really bought that toy back, and they were so happy that they couldn't sleep all night.

After paying for the refrigerator, Zhong Tao started wandering around the garbage mountains again.

Ten bucks radio!
Six yuan and ten kilograms of scrap iron pipes!

Bamboo deck chair for 30 yuan!
The thousand yuan that Zhong Tao earned could be spent as a million in this scrapyard.

Things are so cheap, I can’t spend them all, I can’t spend them all!
