When Chu Xiangqian heard Qin Huairu mention the second-hand goods collection station, he understood that she wanted to make more extra money.
At the same time, you can also please yourself by getting more old items for yourself.
After thinking about it, Chu Xiangqian said, "It's easy to transfer you to the second-hand goods collection station, but how do you explain it to the Jia family and the neighbors?
You've only been in the neighborhood committee for two months, and you've gone from being a street sweeper to being a member of the purchasing station?"
Qin Huairu immediately showed a proud expression, "I have been in the neighborhood committee for the past two months, and I have not only been cleaning the streets."
After some explanations, Chu Qianqian’s eyes couldn’t help but change when he looked at Qin Huairu.
This woman is up to something, she has plans and tricks, and she knows it.
Unexpectedly, in just two months, she took the initiative to meet an aunt at the used goods collection station affiliated to the neighborhood committee, and they became like sisters.
A few days ago, he took the initiative to tell her that the webmaster of the acquisition station was old and would retire in a few months.
This is missing one person, so naturally one more person has to be added.
Qin Huairu also worked hard, and would rather skip a few lunches and use the money saved to go to the river to buy fish caught by a fisherman and give it to the aunt.
Then he lied that his biological father and elder brother could fish, and occasionally they could get some game from the mountains.
After giving the fish to the aunt several times, she encouraged her to fight for the position of the webmaster of the purchasing station.
When Chu Qianqian heard this, he understood that Qin Huairu's idea was very simple. As long as the aunt became the station manager, and then transferred her from the street sweeping team in the neighborhood committee to the purchasing station, the outside world would only think that the aunt wanted to find someone.
An acquaintance is helping me on the site.
When Qin Huairu saw Chu Xiangqian not speaking, she was afraid that a little man like herself would not help her.
He put his arms around Chu Qianqian's neck and became restless.
Not long after, the two of them were practicing boxing and kicking under the eaves.
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Huairu freshened up and went straight to the station with two kilograms of preserved peaches, two kilograms of red dates, five kilograms of chestnuts and five kilograms of food stamps given by Chu Xiangqian.
.
I plan to go to Qinjiazhuang in the afternoon and bring back the copper coins and old items that my father has collected in the past two months.
By the way, I told my father and eldest brother to go out and set some hare traps or go fishing by the river in the near future.
No matter whether you can catch a hare or catch a fish, the purpose is to show it to outsiders.
-----
After Qin Huairu left, Chu Xiangqian entered Xinshou Village and took a bath. He waited until 7 o'clock in the evening when it was completely dark, then went out and rode his bicycle, carrying two baskets tied to the rear rack of the bicycle towards the Yuhe River.
Go.
Before reaching the place, Chickadee had already explored the area first, and soon saw Nan Guangsheng and a young man standing on the embankment of the Yuhe River, looking at the streets on both sides.
Chu Xiangqian looked through the tits and was sure that the young man was Nan Yi.
A few minutes later, Chu Xiangqian appeared in front of the two of them, and Nan Guangsheng said excitedly, "Brother, this is my cousin."
Then he looked at Nan Yi and said, "Uncle, this is Brother Chu I'm talking about."
Speaking of which, Nan Yi was only twenty-four or five years old at this time, only a few years older than Chu Xiangqian.
After hearing what my nephew said, I immediately realized that I couldn't interact with Chu Qianqian based on my nephew's seniority.
He quickly took out a box from his pocket and said, "Comrade Chu, thank you for taking such good care of Guangsheng in the past. Please don't dislike this little gadget."
Chu was stunned for a moment, then after thinking about it, he reached out and took it. Only then did the uncles and nephews Nan Yi and Nan Guangsheng laugh.
Chu Xiangqian was not in a hurry to see what was in the box. He pointed to the two bamboo baskets tied to the frame of the bicycle and said, "Let's do business first. I'll bring food later. Master Nan will be responsible for saving some for a nice drink." p>
Nan Yi was overjoyed. What he is best at is cooking and appraisal. He smiled and said, "Well, just take a look. If nothing else, I will praise you for my cooking skills."
Chu Xiangqian didn't say much and helped put the two bamboo baskets on the rear frame of the 28-bar borrowed from Nanyi and tie them up.
A few words of caution, and then a reminder that if someone on patrol at night insists on searching, just say it is the materials purchased by the steel rolling mill.
Nan Yi and Nan Guangsheng nodded hurriedly, not noticing Chu Qianqian's verbosity at all. After a while, one of the uncle and nephew picked up his bicycle, and the other ran a few steps behind, jumped on the horizontal bar in front of the bicycle and walked slowly away. Chu Qianqian stood on the river embankment, lit a cigarette, and looked at both sides of the river embankment.
I soon discovered that there seemed to be many more people fishing than in winter.
If you think about it for a moment, you will know that food is even tighter now.
It's a pity that no matter how powerful I am, I can't change anything.
You can only silently take care of your loved ones around you.
Half an hour later, Chu Xiangqian rode his bicycle and entered the box and walked around for half an hour. When he appeared at the river embankment again, two bamboo baskets containing two hundred kilograms of wild boar meat appeared behind the bicycle.
Not long after waiting, I saw Nan Yi coming back panting with Nan Guangsheng on his bicycle.
The three of them didn't say much and exchanged the bamboo baskets. This time Nan Yi could only walk, leaving Nan Guangsheng to push the bicycle.
Chu Qianqian thought for a while, stopped the two of them, used his pocket as a cover, took out two and a half kilograms of cooked meat and handed it over, "Eat some first, otherwise you will hurt your body and you won't be able to save it."
Nan Yi and Nan Guangsheng hurriedly thanked them, took the dried meat, and started eating bit by bit with the water in the kettle they had brought beforehand.
After only eating about a third of it, the two stopped eating, put the remaining dried meat into their pockets, said hello to Chu Qianqian and left.
After five consecutive trips like this, nearly 1,100 kilograms of wild boar meat was finally delivered to old relatives and friends.
Chu Qianqian saw that his uncle and nephew were pale from exhaustion, and there was no way they could think of letting Nan Yi cook.
He took out a cooked hare wrapped in paper and put it directly in Nan Guangsheng's arms. "We will talk about the meal in two days. You two should go back and eat this cooked rabbit now and have a good sleep." p>
Nan Yi still wanted to say that he was fine, but Chu Qianqian smiled and said, "Master Nan, the first impression is very important, do you understand?"
Nan Yi was not stupid, so he could naturally tell that Chu Xiangqian was worried that the food he cooked would be substandard due to his lack of physical strength.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
He nodded hurriedly, "Okay, Comrade Chu, don't worry, I will definitely adjust my condition in the next two days."
The three of them exchanged a few more polite words before they separated.
Nan Yi watched Chu Qianqian leave and said to Nan Guangsheng, "Guangsheng, this Comrade Chu is indeed worth making friends with. You must remember to listen to him more in the future, do you understand?"
Nan Guangsheng said with a smile, "Uncle, you don't need to tell me, I have long treated Brother Chu as my own brother."
Only then did Nan Yi pat his nephew on the shoulder with satisfaction, feeling no longer worried about his job adjustment.
After Chu Qianqian left, he looked at the time and saw that it was only around 10 o'clock, secretly wondering if Qin Huairu was back.
I can't go back to the courtyard tonight. After all, I said when I went out in the morning that I would go hunting in the mountains today.
When they arrived at the courtyard of Maoer Hutong, they saw more than a dozen bamboo baskets under the eaves. They immediately knew that Qin Huairu had not only returned from her parents' home, but also had returned to the courtyard by this time.
After locking the door, I entered the room and saw a lot of copper coins, porcelain and a painting circle on the table.
Copper coins are easy to handle, just use them one by one, and if the reminder sounds in your head, throw them directly into the Novice Village warehouse.
If there is no beep, put it back on the corner of the table and leave it alone.
The more than 300 copper coins before and after actually increased by 247 gold coupons. It seems that Qin Huairu and her father now have some experience and know what kind of copper coins can catch their eyes.
After looking at the 7 pieces of porcelain, Chu Qianqian shook his head helplessly. The items were all real. Unfortunately, not only were they all from the Braided Dynasty, but none of them were from the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties.
There are even two pieces from private kilns, and the seven pieces of porcelain only add 16 gold coupons.
But when I think about it, I think this is normal. Unless a tomb is dug, there are many old things in the countryside, but most of them must be from the past few decades or a hundred years.
He put all seven pieces of porcelain into the warehouse and picked up the painting circle. Unexpectedly, the sound of 21 gold coupons suddenly sounded in his mind.
Chu Qianqian hurriedly spread out the circle carefully, then took out a flashlight and looked carefully.
After only looking at it for a short while, Chu Xiangqian was sure that this landscape painting must have been painted by Li Keran.
And it should have been left over by Mr. Li when he was an art professor in Peiping.
I immediately thought to myself, would the person who took out this painting have other paintings by Mr. Li?
The more he thought about it, the more Chu Xiangqian felt it was possible.
Unfortunately, no matter how urgent it is, Qin Huairu cannot be allowed to return to her parents' home at this time.
We can only wait until tomorrow morning.
I went out and lay on the lounge chair under the eaves, smoking several cigarettes, and then I calmed down my anxiety.
Putting the painting in his hand into the warehouse, his eyes couldn't help but focus on Novice Village.
At this time, the aperture outside the Novice Village had expanded by 58.9 meters. No new wild monsters appeared in the three directions, east, west, and south. However, in the woods to the north of the village, a wild boar flashed past and ran outside the aperture. Originally, this time I gave birth to 1,095 kilograms of wild boars for Nanguang, which would have consumed 5 of the 6 wild boars I had previously stored in the warehouse.
Only a 400-pound super-large wild boar was left untouched.
I was still thinking about finding time to actually go into the mountains and kill more wild boars and save them for later use.
I didn’t expect it, whatever comes to mind.
He ducked into Novice Village, rode a red rabbit and ran outside the woods to the north of the village. From his storage compartment, he took out a pheasant, bled it and hung it on the trunk of a birch tree one meter away.
But after waiting for more than an hour, the wild boar was not seen walking out of the circle of light.
Thinking about it carefully, Chu Xiangqian shook his head helplessly. From the looks of it, the smell of blood would not attract wild boars.
I put down the Garand rifle in my hand and was about to go back to Novice Village when suddenly there was a noise.
Chu Qianqian looked up and saw that the wild boar from before had already rushed out of the circle of light and rushed towards the pheasant.
Chu Xiangqian's face lit up, he raised the Garand rifle in his hand and shot the wild boar in the head.
With the sound of a "bang" gunshot, the wild boar, which weighed at least 350 kilograms, was already running. It seemed as if it was hit hard by something, its limbs went limp, and it fell to the ground and slid for several meters before stopping.
The voice of 100 experience points also came from my mind.
Put the wild boar into your storage compartment, it's almost 12 o'clock.
After waiting for a while, after all the wild monsters, fruits, and aquatic products were refreshed, Chu Qianqian repeated his old tricks and hunted a 320-pound wild boar again.
Then I went to the hills to the south and tried to lure the black bear out.
Unfortunately, after waiting and waiting, we still failed.
Cursing in his heart, Chu Qianqian could only ride the red rabbit back to Novice Village, played with Da Zhuang, Red Bull, and the pony for a while, and then left Novice Village to sleep.
Early the next morning, Chu Xiangqian was practicing boxing in the yard when a warning came from the tit.
Soon, from the sight of the tit, Qin Huairu was seen walking this way in a hurry.
Chu Qianqian glanced at his watch. It was only after 7 o'clock. He secretly wondered if the Qin family village was short of food and that people were starving to death?
After a while, Qin Huairu pushed the door open, turned around and closed the door.
Seeing Chu Qianqian standing in the yard practicing boxing, he didn't care about that much and asked eagerly, "Qianqian, how much food can I exchange for the old things I brought back yesterday?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiangqian knew that his guess was correct, and only when he was about to starve to death would the owner of that landscape painting be willing to take out the painting.
"How many do you want?"
Qin Huairu was stunned, then she grabbed Chu Qianqian's arm and said happily, "If there are 100 kilograms of food stamps, the village can take the food stamps and money and go to the commune to exchange for about 500 kilograms of sweet potatoes.
With this food, not only can a few families in the village who are about to starve to death be able to survive, but other people's lives will not be so difficult."
Chu Xiangqian was not reluctant to part with 100 kilograms of food stamps and 18 yuan.
You can exchange the previous pound of white flour for at least 6 pounds of sweet potatoes.
After hearing Chu Xiangqian's question, Qin Huairu couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "My lord, you really don't know how serious the food shortage down there is.
I was able to exchange for 500 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and it was only through my connections that I was able to exchange so much from the commune."
Only then did Chu Xiangqian realize that the more ordinary people are reluctant to eat white flour and rice, the more sweet potatoes are becoming in short supply.
"Wait for me", went back to the house and took out 100 kilograms of food stamps and 50 yuan from the storage compartment.
When he went out to hand it over to Qin Huairu, he asked again, "Have you figured out how to explain the origin of these 100 kilograms of food stamps?"
Qin Huairu nodded hurriedly, counting the food stamps, and said, "I was in the village yesterday and discussed it with the village chief, my father and my uncle.
Let’s just say that these food stamps were obtained by an old bachelor in our village who was over 30 years old with a different surname, and exchanged them for the painting I brought back yesterday at the night market.
As long as nothing happens, the village will decide to marry the young widow who died the year before last and was driven back to the village by her parents-in-law.
Seriously, that little widow is still my cousin.
If anything happens, he will be the one to bear it. And you didn’t know that the two of them actually got along well last year.
If my cousin hadn't been pregnant with a child, Chen would still be reluctant to take out that painting."
When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he felt relieved. His surname, marriage, and only child were enough reasons for the man named Chen to bear it.
Besides, going into the night market to exchange things is not enough to warrant being shot.
If most of the village pleads for him, judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that this matter will go unsolved.
But when the storm comes, it will be hard to say.
Chu Xiangqian thought about the food stamps he had stored in the storage compartment. There should be 540 kilograms left. He wanted to take out 100 kilograms of food stamps and 100 yuan from his pocket again to exchange for a few more Mr. Li's paintings.
But then I thought about it, giving food stamps is not as safe as giving money.
With money, Chen will definitely have to go to the pigeon market in the commune.
As long as he goes, the 100 kilograms of food stamps this time will not be missed.
