Red Merry

(' Xue Xiang didn't exchange greetings with the few people, and asked Sun Qianjin to lead him to Hualian Woodware Factory to find the lame third child. Hualian Woodware Factory is located at the corner of Taiping Street in Dongcheng, only ten miles away from Xue Xiang's house. After chatting and laughing, we arrived outside the gate of Hualian Carpentry Factory in a short while. There was a side room next to the iron gate of the carpentry factory, which was supposed to be the residence of the janitor.

Several people entered the gate together, and as soon as they stepped through the gate, they heard someone calling for registration.Xue Xiang followed the source of the sound and found the person who made the sound, only to see a gray head protruding from the transom of the ear room. This person is the lame third child.

Sun Qianjin said: "I'm not going to register, I go eight times a day and don't register. I brought my third brother here today, and I came to see you."

The lame young man's face changed drastically, and he trembled: "Comrades, I, I confess, I confess, I resolutely draw a clear line with Xu Haogu, an anti-GM element, and I fully understand his true face of anti-GM... "Xu Haogu was the father of the lame third child. He was killed at the beginning of the catastrophe.The lame old man was originally named Xu Bogu, but later changed his name to Xu Tongjin because he had the same name as a comrade in the party, in order to draw a clear line with him.There were two elder brothers above the lame third, both of whom died young. He was the third, and because he was beaten lame, everyone called him the lame third, but forgot his real name.At this moment, the lame youngest saw such a group of young men in military uniforms, thought that the young generals were here again, and hurriedly confessed.

Xue Xiang interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said: "We are not young generals, the young generals are over, don't be afraid, I am looking for you today to ask for your help, we know that you are a craftsman, so asking you to help is also borrowing your craftsmanship Give us the palm of your hand, of course, and you won't let your work go in vain."

The lame third heard that he was not a young general, so he waved his hands with confidence, "I lost my skills a long time ago, and I have drawn a clear line with the bourgeoisie. Now I am a glorious proletarian, comrade worker, yes..."

"Don't bother me, my third brother asks you to help me to give you shame, and you still hold it up. If you talk nonsense again, I will immediately make you a worker." It was Sun Qianjin who spoke, and Xue Xiang was there Well, it's not easy for him to speak first. According to his personality, he can't talk to the lame third child, and he will do it when he is called.Seeing that the lame youngest is playing tricks on women and men on women, he got tired of hearing it, so he yelled loudly.

Seeing that Sun Jinjin lost his temper, the lame youngest lowered his head and didn't dare to talk anymore. He knew the relationship between Sun Qianjin and his factory manager, and he was afraid that he would really anger Sun Qianjin. Gone.

Seeing this, Xue Xiang said: "Don't worry too much, we just ask you for help, we pay you, and it's not something harmful, as long as you look at it, nod or shake your head, you don't even need to make a sound." .”

The lame youngest has already talked about this point, if he doesn't agree, I'm afraid it will really fail.The lame third nodded and said, "What's the matter, you can tell me."

Xue Xiangdao: "What's the matter, I won't say it first, try your water first."

A trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of the lame young man, obviously he was very confident in his ancestral craftsmanship, he curled his lips and said, "Take it out, I'll take care of it."

Sun Qianjin had never seen the lame youngest dare to speak like this before, and was about to scold him when Xue Xiang stopped him.Xue Xiang opened the cloth bag, took out a pair of palm-sized tiles and handed them to the lame third child.The lame youngest took the tile, and as soon as he closed his eyes, his soul seemed to be taken away. His eyes were fixed on the tile, and his palms were caressing, as if he was stroking the skin of a beautiful woman, without saying a word.

Sun Qianjin couldn't take it anymore, the lame youngest dared to play deep with him, and scolded: "You are talking, don't you don't see it at all, if you don't say you are ugly today, you just roll back let's go home."

Only then did the lame youngest remember that there was a living King of Hades standing beside him, and he hurriedly said: "I can see it, I can see it, this is a treasure, this is Jun porcelain, Jun porcelain, you know, it is emperor porcelain, it is from the Song Dynasty of our country. One of the five famous kiln porcelains is..."

"That's right, we don't have time to listen to your lectures, so you can tell me how much it's worth." Sun Qianjin didn't have time to listen to his noise, so he interrupted him and asked.

The lame third said: "I have to look at the size of the vessel. I can't estimate the price based on this piece of porcelain alone. If you ask about this piece of porcelain, it can be worth a hundred or so."

"Such a piece of broken porcelain is worth so much money? Sun Qianjin grew his mouth, and seemed unable to understand that the value of a piece of broken porcelain can be compared with a dozen pig legs. The others are not much better, everyone keeps their mouths open." , as if seeing countless pork legs and roast chickens, only Xue Xiang looked normal. He knew it was a treasure, and he thought the price was too low.

Xue Xiang handed the cloth bag to the lame third son and asked him to look at it himself. After the lame third finished reading it, he sighed: "It's a pity, it's a pity, such a good, such a big pot of 'Zhuge Prime Minister Six Out of Qishan' characters It's really a pity that my son is ruined like this." The lame youngest kept saying it's a pity, his face flushed with excitement.

It was Xue Xiang who interrupted him this time. Sun Qianjin seemed to be still calculating how many pork legs that piece of porcelain was equivalent to, and he hadn't recovered yet.Xue Xiang asked, "How much do you estimate it can sell for?"

The lame young man said: "If it is not damaged, a large pot like this, with a character with a story, can sell for at least 600 yuan. I'm talking about the present. If it was ten years earlier, it would be more valuable. I heard from my father that my grandpa received a large pot of characters back then, but it was not as big as yours, and it cost five thousand oceans. That was in the Republic of China. But now these good things are cheap and almost destroyed Now, are you going to sell the tiles? You can only sell these tiles for more than [-] yuan at most when you disassemble them, and then sell them to people who know the goods, and sell them to commissions, and maybe a few dozen yuan will send you away."

Sun Qianjin woke up when he heard this, and shouted: "Dozens of yuan? How can it be done, lame third, didn't you just say that one piece of porcelain is worth a hundred or so, why? Now six or seven pieces of porcelain are only It’s worth dozens of dollars, you’re not fooling me, you hurry up and think of a way, and if you can’t figure out a way, I’ll sell it to you.” This guy played a trick to catch the duck on the shelves.

The lame third son was in a hurry, and said: "Comrade Sun, I can't afford it. Aren't you embarrassing me? I'll think of a way, and I'll think of a way." For a while, the lame third's face was sweating.After a while, I looked up at Xue Xiang and asked, "Did you break the whole thing? Are the pieces in the bag?"

Xue Xiangdao: "It's the whole thing, and the pieces in the bag are also neat."

The lame third breathed a sigh of relief, wiped off his sweat, and finally bought it without having to pay for it himself: "There is a way, this big pot is not badly broken, it can be repaired, and if it is repaired, it can be sold at a good price."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was overjoyed.Sun Qianjin was the most anxious: "Then hurry up and fix it. After it's done, I'll ask my uncle to increase your salary by one level." Seeing the pork leg at this moment is not only hopeful, it seems that buying a pig is also possible. Sun Qianjin His tone improved a lot, and he even used the trick of lure.

The lame young man said: "My ancestral craftsmanship is identification, and I can't repair it." Seeing Sun Qianjin's face changed suddenly, he quickly said: "I don't know it, Li Siye of Huayang Iron and Steel Plant is as ancestral as me. He is a master at repairing this job, recently his wife was hospitalized, and he asked for leave to take care of her at home, urgently needing money, if you ask him, he will definitely agree."

The lame youngest said Li Siye Xue Xiang knew him. He was a worker in his parents' work unit. There are five children in the family. His wife has been in poor health and the family burden is heavy.Xue Xiang thanked the lame third son, and told the lame third son about digging out the old house to ask him to take the palm of his hand, and promised to pay him the equivalent of one year's salary after the matter was completed.On one side was coercion, on the other side was lure, the lame youngest had no choice but to agree, but kept saying to Xue Xiang: "This is a decapitation business, you must keep it secret, and keep it secret." Xue Xiang nodded repeatedly and agreed, Several people were amused in their hearts, and they thought they were afraid that you would leak the secret.

Xue Xiang led a few people to Li Siye's house. Li Siye's house was a small private courtyard at the entrance of the alley in the factory area.When Xue Xiang and the others arrived at the door of his house, Fourth Master Li was squatting on the threshold smoking a cigarette. In Xue Xiang's memory, Fourth Master Li had gray hair, but Fourth Master Li in front of him had white hair like snow. It can also be seen that the person sitting there is not an octogenarian.Xue Xiang greeted Fourth Master Li and handed him a cigarette.Fourth Master Li obviously still remembered the son of the former deputy factory manager, and Fourth Master Li could hardly squeeze out a smile on his sad face.Xue Xiang explained his intentions, and Fourth Master Li agreed without saying a word.Originally, the wife needed money for hospitalization, and the children at home needed money for education and food. With his little salary, the family was almost out of food.Seeing that Mr. Qian came to the door at this time, there is no reason to infer it, even the business of beheading has been done, let alone just repairing something, it is considered to be someone else's tire repair.

Fourth Master Li let a few people into the house, poured water for them, and asked Xue Xiang to take out the things. Xue Xiang handed him the cloth bag. Fourth Master Li opened it, his eyes looked like the lame old third.They are veteran craftsmen from this line of work, seeing good things is like perverts seeing beautiful women.It took a long time for Fourth Master Li to come back to his senses. After saying something like waiting for three hours, he entered the room and locked the door.

More than two hours later, Fourth Master Li opened the door and called Xue Xiang and the others to enter.As soon as Xue Xiang and the others entered, they were stunned.On the wide square table, there is a large azure pot.The big pot is about [-] centimeters high, and the largest diameter is about [-] centimeters. Under the [-]-watt incandescent lamp, you can clearly see the eyebrows, eyes and expressions of the characters on the big pot, which is full of moist light. It is really lifelike.Xue Xiang's eyes moved closer, and he saw Prime Minister Zhuge's worried face and resolute eyes, which were so vivid.Xue Xiang searched carefully, trying to find the trace of repair, but he couldn't find it with his eyes sore.If Xue Xiang hadn't brought these pieces of porcelain to be repaired by himself, I'm afraid he would never have believed that the magnificent jar in front of him was the original piece of cloth bag.Xue Xiang looked at it and let it go, Lei Xiaotian and the others had been waiting anxiously.Xue Xiang stretched out his thumb to Fourth Master Li and said, "It's amazing, it's a supernatural workmanship, amazing skills."

Fourth Master Li said humbly: "No, I'm getting old, I haven't done it for many years, and my skills are rusty. I used to do this, how could it take so long, and besides, it's mending after all. You can see it with this." Said Then Fourth Master Li handed Xue Xiang a magnifying glass.

Xue Xiang took the magnifying glass and squeezed in, put the magnifying glass close to the big pot, searched for a while, and found a few thin lines, Xue Xiang said: "It's a surprise to me to be able to make up like this, Uncle Li, How much, you say the number."

Li Siye said: "The craftsmanship is not worth much now, you can give me two yuan, it is really inconvenient at home, if you usually ask me for this favor, I am not ashamed to ask for money."

Xue Xiang said: "How can this work? I know that my aunt is not in good health. I know the actual value of this big jar. Your helper will appreciate at least a few times. How about this? I will give you 20 yuan first, and I will give you this big jar. The can is gone, and I’ll make it up for you.” As he spoke, Xue Xiang took out the last two Da Tuan in his wallet and handed it to Fourth Master Li.

Fourth Master Li waved his hands repeatedly and said, "You don't need so much. I used to eat this bowl of rice, but now I don't do it anymore. It can only be regarded as helping. Even if my old guy has the cheek to collect money, how dare he ask for so much."

The two pushed back again and again, but Fourth Master Li still didn't hold back Xue Xiang, and the family was really anxious for money, so he accepted it with half push and half.Li Siye repeatedly said that this is already too much, and how much the jar sells for has nothing to do with him.Xue Xiang told Fourth Master Li about digging out the old house to ask him to take care of him, and the old man agreed without saying a word, patted his chest.
