Zhou Yan didn't bother to bargain, so he took out four stacks of unsealed old man's heads from his pocket, pulled out a few and handed them over.
After the stall owner finished checking it with a banknote detector, Zhou Yan withdrew a plastic bag from the stall and packed the purchased ink pads.
"Boss, if you are in a situation like yours, I suggest you clean up your workshop at home and go to the town or county to ask if you can apply for an intangible cultural heritage." Zhou Yan straightened up, "If not, go to Qiantang or Jinling to set it up."
stall, the cultural atmosphere is stronger over there..."
When entering the study area, naturally he couldn't let go of some old pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Zhou Yan bought these to imitate and "generate income".
It's not for collection, so naturally you don't need to care too much about the quality of the artifacts. In just ten minutes, Zhou Yan found several worm-eaten two-hundred-year-old papers and seven or eight pieces of "battle damage" from the market.
Edition of ink ingots.
As for inkstones, except for the Chengni inkstone, the four famous inkstones have basically been exhausted. Everyone knows that rare things are more valuable, and once you get them, you won’t buy them out...
After playing antiques with Zhou Yan for so long, Qin Ruoshu can be regarded as a high-level leek. Seeing Zhou Yan's eyes constantly wandering around the inkstone, he smiled and suggested: "Husband, there is really no good inkstone, let's just wash the mud."
, just make your own inkstone."
"It's okay, I remember there is a large piece of red soil at the head of the village. I'll try it myself later..."
Zhou Yan stopped and turned to look at Qin Ruoshu: "How about we go back? There's no point in wandering anymore..."
"Well..." Qin Ruoshu raised her head and pouted, dissatisfied with a bit of joy, "I remember there was a stone bettor in front of me, how about we try our luck again?"
"We made an agreement..." Zhou Yan glanced at the pocket hanging on his chest, "The money I just took out this afternoon is less than a round left, so I'll just make do with this money..."
Thanks to Zhouyan's blooming of high-ice varieties, the number of onlookers outside Beishi Shop was several times larger than that of more than a month ago.
After some effort, the two of them finally squeezed to the front.
That's it?
The pile of rough stones piled at the foot of the wall was much larger than last time, but Zhou Yan still remembered that many of the pile of rough stones in front of him were left over from the last selection.
"How about..." Zhou Yan whispered to the little wife on the side, "Let's forget it. It is said that there are also rough stones sold in Guangdong Province, and the market is quite large. When we come back from Sanya, we can
Let’s take a look first…”
"Fine……"
Zhou Yan could clearly tell that his wife's promise was a bit insincere.
"Then let's have some luxury today..."
While Zhou Yan was talking to Qin Ruoshu, the boss standing among the rough stones had already noticed the young couple.
"Handsome guy, there are new products in the store. Let's take a look?"
"Okay!" Zhou Yan stepped forward, reached out and took the bright light handpiece from the boss's hand, and then walked towards the pile of original rocks.
"By the way, the price of rough stones hasn't gone up, has it?"
“Still the original price!”
Zhou Yan nodded, bent down, carefully looked at the shell of the rough stone, observed it for a while, turned on the flashlight, and took a photo of a certain rough stone...
No good performance.
Zhou Yan shook his head and looked back at the boss who was greeting the guests: "Boss, do you have any information on how to open the window?"
"They are all stored in the warehouse!" The boss nodded, hesitated, and then added, "However, the prices of materials for opening windows are different from those for full blocking!"
"until!"
"A Liang, you greet the guests, I will take them to the warehouse to look at the materials..."
Zhou Yan turned around and looked at his girlfriend: "Daughter-in-law, let's go over and take a look!"
When Zhou Yan saw the boss's "treasure" of window opening materials, he was a little surprised: not to mention the small quantity, and the performance was average, either showing "fog" or having cracks...
Of course, for knowledgeable people, it is easier to judge the direction of the ribbon inside the leather case if the window is opened.
Zhou Yan observed it for a long time, and finally selected a piece of white material from a pile of materials with no color bands at all.
"Handsome guy, here..."
"Bad performance, right?" Zhou Yan's face was full of teasing, "Can I get a discount on this?"
"Nine...20% off!"
"How much?" Zhou Yan picked up a piece of material the size of a human head and put it on the scale nearby.
"Sixteen kilograms, 10,800, 20% off is 8,600..."
After paying the play money, Zhou Yan glanced at the cutting machine at the foot of the wall: "Can I use the cutting machine?"
"Here?" The boss was a little surprised.
“It’s clean here!”
After saying that, Zhou Yan placed the rough stone under the cutting machine, fixed it, and pressed the start button.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yan took the jade that had cut off most of its skin from the cutting machine and walked to the faucet. He rinsed it with water and revealed its "true appearance."
"Violet?"
The boss’s eyes almost popped out of his head: the window material was his “work”!
The material had been there for a long time, but no one wanted it. After struggling for a long time, the boss decided to amuse himself, but as soon as he opened the window, it was all white.
In order to stop the loss in time, the boss could only put the materials together with the materials for opening the window to recharge.
result……
"Violet?" Zhou Yan glanced at the white jade with a hint of purple in it, "If a drop of purple liquid drops in a pot of white porridge, can it be considered a violet?"
Although I was not satisfied with the performance of the material, it seemed that I could get my money back, so I breathed a sigh of relief: "Boss, please give me two plastic bags... By the way, does your store have a back door?"
"Handsome boy, are you afraid that your wealth will be exposed?"
"Is this nonsense?" Zhou Yan took the black plastic bag with a smile and covered the original stone. "There are many old faces among the people watching. I don't want to cause trouble for myself..."
"But..." The boss stared at Zhou Yan with a smile, "Since your price has gone up, it stands to reason that you should set off firecrackers..."
"After I leave, you can find a piece of underperforming material, cut it, and just set off firecrackers..."
When Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu returned to the parking lot carrying the jade, they heard the sound of firecrackers in the distance...
"This guy..." Zhou Yan put Jade in the trunk, turned around and was about to close the door when he found his wife looking at Jade longingly.
"Daughter-in-law, this piece of material should be okay. I'll get you a pair of bracelets later..."
"No need?"
"Consider it a gift for the Chinese Valentine's Day!"
After putting away their things, the two of them walked to the restaurant a few hundred meters away and started enjoying dinner.
Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu ordered local specialties of Shanghai-style Western food and local dishes. The portions were not large, but the taste was very good.
However, what Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu felt was that most of the customers dining in the restaurant were gray-haired "old Clerks" and older ladies with kind faces.
A young man and a woman suddenly appeared among the dining customers, which made most of the old customers feel a little strange and took a peek from time to time, making "little daughter-in-law" Qin Ruoshu feel even more embarrassed.
In order to avoid something more embarrassing happening, Qin Ruoshu had to slow down her already slow eating speed.
"Husband, the quality of the food in the store should be okay, but why..."
"There are many reasons." Zhou Yan glanced at the streets where neon signs were already rising. "Rich young people have nightlife, like Young Master Lin. As for other people, they are all fighting for their houses.
, how can I be in the mood to engage in these petty bourgeois sentiments..."
"That's right..." Qin Ruoshu glanced around quietly. "Only these retired elderly people have time to enjoy this kind of time..."
