Lao Guanzheng was a lonely old man. Over the years, he sometimes did the cleaning work himself, sometimes Han's mother came over to do the busy work, and sometimes Han Chunming, his apprentice, did it. After getting married, Cai Xiaoli came to help.

Eating is also simple. After all, this old boy is a drunkard, so he only needs wine. He keeps the peanuts all year round, boils some porridge, and pulls some vegetables in the pot, and it will be over. Even Han Chunming has a child, so

We just went to Lao Han's house for dinner, which saved us some trouble.

But he was still lonely in his heart, and of course he was very happy to be able to drink and chat together.

So the courtyard in Laoguan became popular again and became lively.

Han Chunming bought some hairtail, pork and other messy vegetables, and was busy in the kitchen. At the same time, he was sitting on the lounge chair in the courtyard. The sun was rising in the morning, and the small courtyard was surrounded by walls, blocking the view of Shuofang.

In the cold wind, I feel the warmth before spring.

Wang Yan took the little horses, who had just congratulated Su Meng and played with them for a while, into the courtyard.

Ma Du lives in the Air Force compound near the Bawang Tomb, twenty miles away from here. He lived up to Wang Yan's expectations. He just went to college yesterday, and the road was still icy, so he pedaled slowly all the way.

The bicycle came over as cold as a grandchild.

"Hey, Admiral, I'm basking in the sun. I'm so excited." After saying hello to Lao Guanguan, he walked into the kitchen with the things in his hand: "You said you were drinking Maotai today. I bought some soybean paste to go with the wine.

I’ll give it to you, and I’ll trade it for a drink.”

Han Chunming, who was taking his turn to stir-fry, replied: "Just leave it there, you go and warm it up, and you'll start drinking when it's 10 or 8 minutes."

At this moment, the old man who was lying down also got up. Wang Yan and the other three entered the room first. The dishes and chopsticks were already placed on the table. Wang Yan made another pot of tea and drank it first.

"Boy, I haven't seen you for a while. Did you pick up any good things?"

"Hey, Admiral, all the good things in the city have been collected by the prince. What good things can I keep? The best thing these days is the blue and white jar from the Jiajing Dynasty. Good things are really rare."

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "Don't push it on me. After eight years of collecting it, I only have more than 10,000 items in my hands. There are a lot of good things, and there are plenty of opportunities. It's not possible now, although the situation is somewhat relaxed now.

, but there is no regulation on how these things are now. In two years' time, in the 1980s, there will be more good things. Now you are looking for things, then things will look for you.

If I'm not wrong, the decade from the 1980s to the 1990s was the best time to collect these old items. When people realize that these are good items that can be sold for a big price, they will pick up the missing items.

It can make people rich overnight, but then there will be no chance at all. So there is still time, so there is no need to be anxious, let alone frustrated. "

"I feel the same way. Now the higher-ups are holding meetings every day and releasing policies one after another. People in our hospital say...if that's true, good times are not far away."

Lao Guantou nodded and asked, "You didn't take the college entrance examination?"

"Hey, Admiral, you really think highly of me." Ma Du shook his head repeatedly: "I am only in the fourth grade of elementary school. Although I have read a lot of messy books over the years, I also have the book that the prince gave me before.

I have read all the books, but the things in these books have nothing to do with the college entrance examination. I am self-aware and don’t even think about it.”

"You don't want to, but someone's stomach is sour." Looking at Han Chunming, who was just coming in with the food, he snorted at the old juncture, feeling that his precious disciple was very useless.

Han Chunming chuckled: "I can't help it. Master, who can control your greed, anger and ignorance? If I don't react at all, that would be abnormal."

"No, why didn't I understand? What's going on? This is pantothenic water, and it's greedy, angry, and stupid?"

"Your Majesty, please explain to him, there is still food on the stove." After saying that, Han Chunming hurried away. Although everyone here is his own people, it doesn't matter if he says something embarrassing, but let him say it himself.

Sorry too...

Of course Ma Du knew that Han Chunming and Cheng Jianjun were calling each other "lord". Wang Yan made a joke about Han Chunming, so he explained what happened without saying too much.

At this time, Han Chunming also brought all the dishes in, making a total of eight dishes. Wang Yan likes to drink, but he just drinks it dry with peanuts. If he doesn't do that, he must have something delicious...

Everyone poured the wine, took a sip first, put the food and wine, and Ma Du opened his mouth to comfort me: "The prince told me just now, I think you should be more open-minded, this person's fate is destined, he will leave

There's nothing you can do about that luck. Besides, it's not like you've missed anything. You still have a place to work in a hardware company. The prince said you did a good job and you will definitely be good in the future."

"Don't comfort me, my brother even called me Ye, what's the big deal? In fact, just yesterday, I didn't expect that boy to be admitted to college. I just want to drink Wang Ye's Moutai."

Seeing Han Chunming pretending to be free and easy, Wang Yan smiled and nodded with his chopsticks: "You are just a tough talker. As long as you can calm down and do it, I believe that Cheng Jianjun will definitely not be as good as you. He is a person who only has a weak relationship.

, I am good at saving face. But if you get in touch with him deeply, anyone who is not a fool will know that this person is not good. Don’t worry, such a person will not go far, and he will not be as successful as you."

"Your Majesty, I remember everything you said to me. If my brother has no future by then, then I will rely on you to grow old."

"What you are saying is so fresh. How can you still be hungry by hanging out with the prince?" Ma Du shook his head and raised his glass: "Stop talking about that, come on, drink and drink. Admiral, you can watch and drink by yourself.

.”

The old man chuckled: "You have spoken. How new is it? Your grandpa, the nine-men admiral, is drinking and is managed by your kid?"

The four of them just started drinking, laughing and chatting about antiques and anecdotes about collecting things. Not to mention Han Chunming, who had learned from Lao Guanguan since childhood, Ma Du had made very rapid progress. I had just met Wang Yan before.

He didn't even get in when he was young, but Wang Yan took him in, and he communicated with Lao Guan Guan, a storyteller, plus he read and studied by himself, and practiced with real objects. In more than two years, he has become quite good. Of course.

This is inseparable from his own talent. Without his original life trajectory, he would not have become a great collector.

After chatting like this, it was inevitable that the topic would come to the end. Ma Du sighed and said: "I really envy you two. The prince has many brothers to help collect things. He is a scientist and is very free. Chunming is not bad either.

Now I am working in a hardware company, walking outside every day when I have time, and making a lot of money. Unlike me, who works in a factory from morning to night, and the money I make is not enough to collect many things.

Hey, it’s difficult…”

"If it's difficult, just find a way to change it." Han Chunming disagreed very much: "You are twenty-three this year, right? Just find a wife, and your life will definitely be different by then."

"It's different, it's even harder." Ma Dudu said angrily: "Do you think calling a woman is like your wife? You can just watch you be so prodigal and take all the money you earn from those old men.

Object? I haven’t thought about getting married yet. If I don’t meet the right person, I won’t get married and I can live a comfortable life.”

"I just want to have more free time and earn more. I have an idea..."

Seeing Ma Du's eyes full of expectation, Wang Yan said with a smile: "Through our contact in the past two years, and you have read so many books over the years, I think you can try to write it yourself. If the time comes,

With a certain influence, there is a high probability that you can be transferred to a cultural center or magazine. Even if you can't be transferred, it's okay. I know a few people in the literary world in school, and they are related to some magazines. I would like to recommend it to you.

You can also go through the back door, the main thing is that you have to have a work that can be used.

If you really succeed, this job will be both clean and respectable, and you will definitely have plenty of time, whether it’s reading a book or going out to collect things. It will give you more freedom, and your income will not be lower than you are now. When the time comes, the girls you will come into contact with will have more freedom.

They are all serious literary young women, and it is easy to find a wife."

Originally, this was Madu's fate. He published the romance novel "The Moon Is Full Tonight" and became an editor of youth literature. It was also because of this editor position that he became acquainted with many other later writers.

Little by little, what was later called the Beijing Circle was formed.

I don’t know when he had the idea to write, but now Wang Yan has mentioned it. If he has already had this idea, then he should be firm. If not, then he will have it now. At the moment when he had the idea, he told him

My life has changed. I have also changed. After all, there is another Wang who should not appear.

Ma Du frowned and thought, drank a glass of wine and nodded: "Your Majesty, you said this is really good. I will think about it when I get back and start writing it. I will try to write a short story first, it won't be strenuous anyway."

Wang Yan raised his glass and said with a smile, "I'm waiting for your good news."

After ending this topic, we started talking about history and culture again, and we didn’t end until about four o’clock in the afternoon.

Han Chunming was not as open-minded as he said, but he was still drunk after all. Cheng Jianjun was very narrow-minded and did not want to be worse than others. Although he was not small-minded, he also did not want to be worse than Cheng Jianjun. Now he has really passed the exam.

I am in college, and I am looking forward to a bright future. I continued to rant in the courtyard this morning, saying that Han Chunming was not good, not to mention that I had called him "Master" before. How could I let go of this so easily?

Ma Du didn't drink a lot, but he could drink a lot. Because in the second half of the process, he had already started to exchange literature with Wang Yan, thinking about what kind of story to write. Wang Yan, who had been a big shot in the literary world, did not hesitate to spit on Xingzi, and talked to Ma Du

I talked about some writing experiences. The main discussion was about the spirit conveyed in the book and what spirit should be conveyed in the current era, rather than the superficial article structure and words. There is no need to teach this stuff. I had a lot of fun discussing it.

, that is, drinking one cup after another, and finally walking slowly in the pushcart against the cold wind.

Although they drank one meal and the next at the old juncture, they still drank to a certain extent, still six or seven taels. After Wang Yan and Han Chunming, who was in a daze, washed the dishes, set up the stove and pressed it, they felt comfortable.

I lay on the bed and listened to the program on the radio, feeling very contented.

Wang Yan went home and had dinner with him...

The wheel of time turned forward again, and Su Meng went to Beijing University happily. She listened to Wang Yan's words and lived in a dormitory in the school. She only went home once or twice a week to see her children and be considerate.

After reading Wang Yan, I can also comfort myself and release the heavy pressure from endless studies and endless books.

Su Meng is quite outgoing and gets along well with her roommates and other classmates. She also brought her roommates to the house to see the children and have dinner. Of course she also met Wang Yan. After all, it was Sunday.

She is taking care of her children at home. The same is true. Wang Yan is also from Beijing University and studies computers. At the same time, the news about Su Meng's family's good conditions spread through the mouths of these classmates.

It was because Su Meng was good-looking and was pursued by several young men. This annoyed Su Meng, so she took her classmates home to prove it. Of course it had an effect. After all, they were all from Beijing University. As long as they asked around, they would know that Wang

What kind of level can I say? Besides, the children are over one year old, and these boys have no interest in it. Of course there are some messing around now, but compared to forty years later, this era is really pure. For now,

They really carry poetry and distance...

As for the other college student in the courtyard, Cheng Jianjun, you can basically not see him in the courtyard. Because he also lives on campus, sometimes he does not even come back once a month. Even if he comes back, he only has one purpose, to ask his father for money.

.

Han Chunming, who did not go to college, picked up his mood and started again. He still worked hard. With the charisma of the protagonist Tianming, he still prospered with the hardware company. In an environment that has been slightly relaxed, his performance has always been

The best one has a good relationship with the leader and a good relationship with colleagues.

Cai Xiaoli worked in the food factory for a while, and also found some connections with the seventh uncle and grandpa of the third aunt's family, and was transferred to the trading company. Only Taozi was still in the food factory.

However, Han Chunming has not forgotten such a good brother. He is running around all day long, and the social environment is becoming more and more relaxed. Plus he has the brains to occasionally find some money-making jobs, which is no longer the case.

Taozi made a lot of money after doing such manual labor as before, and he also had more money in his own hands. Part of it was given to Cai Xiaoli to keep, and the other part was left to him to walk around the streets, or just follow the rags.

Hou went together to collect things around the capital.

After the special zone was opened in 1979, Han Chunming was sent by the factory to Pengcheng to see if there was any possibility of cooperation with the factory there. It was this official business trip that allowed Han Chunming to see countless things.

When I got the opportunity, I came back and chatted with Wang Yan about what I had learned during the trip, and began to think about how to take advantage of the opportunity to make money.

Not surprisingly, he and Taozi teamed up to do the job of betraying the master. This is something that requires the least capital, and as long as you dodge cleverly and don't get caught, you can make money. Han Chunming is actually not very courageous, but he is not
