Chapter 66 Greed(1/2)
Gu Siwei could tell that the two people were selling something. It was Zhao Minglan who was selling it, and another voice was buying it. The price given was not low. These days, ten kilograms of food stamps are worth a lot of money.
antique?!
After listening to a few words, Gu Siwei felt that what these two people were selling were antiques, and they were copied by Zhao Minglan.
The biggest skills of the Zaofan sect are twofold, one is to confiscate homes and the other is to fight people. Naturally, it is impossible to confiscate the homes of ordinary people. Those who are confiscated are all former wealthy families, or historical buildings like the Confucius Temple. As for the houses in these buildings
Those things were said to be burned or smashed, but no one could count them. It was very common to lose one or two of these things.
When the word antique popped into Gu Siwei's mind, Gu Siwei became a little uneasy. Gu Siwei, who came here decades later, naturally knew what the price of antiques was. Let's put it this way, he would go home and hide some good things.
Don't say that you have enough to eat in this life. As long as your grandson does not ruin the family, you will probably have enough to feed your great-grandson.
This thing is a class-crossing artifact.
"What are you thinking about? Why are you so distracted today?"
Hu Yanqiu's hearing was far inferior to Gu Siwei's, and the background was a bit complicated, so she didn't hear what the voices in the alley were saying, and thought Gu Siwei was in a daze again.
Gu Siwei came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm just tired. Let's sit down over there and rest for a while."
Gu Siwei's plan was to find out who this collector of antiques was.
Hu Yanqiu didn't know what Gu Siwei was planning. Hearing Gu Siwei say he was tired, he said: "Then take a rest for ten minutes. Later we will go see what is on sale at the stall over there."
Now that spring has begun, there are more and more vegetables. Farmers who are farming nearby cannot eat them themselves. If they can't eat them, people will naturally pick them up and sell them to the factory for some money, even if they are exchanged for one or two cents.
, which is better than throwing it into the ground.
Therefore, vegetables at this time are the cheapest, less than one-fifth of the price in winter, and the vegetables cannot be sold at a high price. It is just money. A handful of cabbage at this time only costs one or two cents, and weighs a full pound.
You will know how low the price of this dish is.
Of course, meat is definitely high in food. No matter what kind of meat it is, it is high in food. The only thing that is not high in food is fish, because there are several rivers in the mountains, and each river is full of fish and shrimp. People at this time did not have the habit of using Juehu net at all.
In addition, aquatic products cannot be eaten as food, so the price of fish is much lower than the price of meat.
The price of fish in the county town is quite expensive, but no one will go to the county town to sell it now. Firstly, being caught at this time is a big deal. Secondly, how are you going to get there? It has been almost two days since you arrived in the county town with the fish in your hand.
It’s gone, it’s nothing to do with freshness, it’s just a piece of shit.
We found a street sprout, Gu Siwei sat on both sides, and Sicui sat in the middle. The three of them rested and looked at the passers-by on the road, feeling silly and happy.
"I'm going to buy some sugar triangles."
Hu Yanqiu stood up as he spoke.
When Sicui heard the candy triangle, she stood up and said, "Sister Yanqiu, I'm going too."
"Do you want to go?" Hu Yanqiu looked at Gu Siwei.
Gu Siwei said: "You go ahead."
He would go there, but he was looking at the entrance of the alley, eager to know what antiques the man had bought, how could he bother to eat the candy triangle.
"Then let's go and let him sit here stupidly." Hu Yanqiu smiled and took Sicui's hand and walked towards the steamed bun shop to the west.
Gu Siwei folded his arms and changed from sitting to squatting with his head curled up.
Almost four or five minutes later, the people at the entrance of the alley came out. The first ones to come out were Zhao Minglan and her two followers. When they arrived at the entrance of the alley, Zhao Minglan did not look around and hurriedly walked eastward.
After waiting for almost another minute, Gu Siwei saw someone coming out.
When Gu Siwei saw this person, he couldn't help but be shocked, because he still knew this person.
This man was the gatekeeper at the back door of the warehouse when Hu Yanqiu took him to buy cloth at the back warehouse last time.
At this moment, the gatekeeper glanced at the road. Gu Siwei quickly lowered his head and pretended to count the ants on the ground.
The gatekeeper didn't notice Gu Siwei squatting on the ground. He just glanced at it, put the cloth bag he was carrying on his shoulders, and walked west along the street.
Gu Siwei looked at the back of the janitor and thought to himself: Is a janitor so rich?
While he was looking at the gatekeeper, he looked up and saw that Hu Yanqiu had returned with Sicui buying a candy triangle, and was chatting with the gatekeeper.
Gu Siwei was afraid that he would be mentioned, so he turned around and hid.
Fortunately, Hu Yanqiu didn't mention Gu Siwei. The gatekeeper probably thought that meeting Hu Yanqiu was a coincidence, so the two of them exchanged a few words and went about their own business.
"Where are the people?"
When Hu Yanqiu came here, he found that Gu Siwei was no longer there, so he turned around and looked around.
"I'm here".
Gu Siwei walked out.
"What have you been doing?" Hu Yanqiu asked.
"I'm not allowed to pee," Gu Siwei said with a smile.
After hearing this, Hu Yanqiu thought that Gu Siwei had gone into an alley to urinate, so he said: "You are not very hygienic. You urinate everywhere."
"Remove that big character" Gu Siwei said with a smile.
"Forget it, you'd better stop eating first and find a place to wash your hands before eating."
Remembering that Gu Siwei had just urinated, Hu Yanqiu felt that he couldn't give the candy triangle to him, otherwise it would be too dirty.
Gu Siwei didn't like the sugar triangle. He didn't like sweets, so he pretended to be casual and asked: "Who was you chatting with just now?"
"Who are you talking about?" Hu Yanqiu didn't remember for a while.
"That old man just now," Gu Siwei said.
Hu Yanqiu understood now and said with a smile: "Uncle Tao, the janitor in our unit, is a very kind and warm-hearted man. If anyone comes to him for help, he will be happy to help."
"Is he quite rich?" Gu Siwei asked.
These words confused Hu Yanqiu: "What kind of money can he have? He has no children. I heard that his son was arrested as a young man before and died outside. A daughter also disappeared. Now he is guarding the door of his work unit.
A formal worker, he lives in the family courtyard on the west side, in the last row of bungalows, at the corner. There have been deaths in that house before, and no one wants to live in it. That is to say, he said he is not afraid of ghosts and so on..."
Hu Yanqiu told Gu Siwei everything he knew.
This saves Gu Siwei a lot of trouble, and now he has a general understanding of the situation.
"Why are you asking about him all of a sudden?"
After finishing speaking, Hu Yanqiu then remembered why Gu Siwei asked about the old man today.
"Just ask me casually, let's go and see what we can buy over there. If there is something good, you will be in luck today," Gu Siwei said with a smile.
Hearing this, Hu Yanqiu immediately forgot about the old man. Sicui was also smiling. Although he lived with his brother, there were not many opportunities for Sicui to eat the dishes cooked by Gu Siwei. Lao Gu was busy here.
I'm building a house over there at Silver Pine Cliff.
The three of them went to the vegetable stall on the edge of the factory.
As soon as he walked out of the alley and was about to go up the mountain, he saw Qiao Yitong stretching his head and looking around, as if he was looking for something.
"Qiao Yitong".
Hu Yanqiu called him, wanting to laugh at him for stretching his head like a little turtle, but before he could say anything, he saw Qiao Yi running towards everyone with a happy face.
"What……".
"Master, follow me, our factory has a workpiece problem that needs to be solved."
Qiao Yitong didn't say anything to Gu Siwei at all, he took Gu Siwei's hand and left.
Hu Yanqiu was a little anxious: "What are you going to do?"
"If there's something important, please take my sister-in-law with you first."
As he said that, Qiao Yitong dragged Gu Siwei.
Only then did Gu Siwei realize that the jeep that Qiao Yi and I owned was parked on the roadside.
The matter was so urgent that Gu Siwei couldn't think of anything else. He jumped into the car with Qiao Yitong and drove all the way to the factory.
After entering the workshop, Qiao Yitong handed Gu Siwei a drawing.
Gu Siwei took a closer look and fell into deep thought. It was not because he didn't know how to process it, but because he didn't have a machine. There was no way the machine in front of him could process the four special-shaped curved surfaces.
If he could get a machine that was built decades later, and process it, it would be a small test of the programmer's skills, but if he didn't have a machine now, he wouldn't be able to do it.
"This machine can't process it, so it has to be polished by hand," Gu Siwei said.
"This machine can't process it?" Qiao Yitong asked.
Gu Siwei shook his head: "It's far from good. This machine can only process the connecting rod part below. If you want to process this curved surface, it's impossible. Because of such a tight spacing, even the smallest knife cannot reach in."
”.
"What about paying for it in the next year?" Qiao Yitong thought for a moment and asked again.
Gu Siwei continued to shake his head: "In that case, the knife will go in too deep, and the cutter head will not be able to withstand it. The workpiece is so hard, let alone such a deep one, the cutter head will have to break at one-third of the depth."
"You really can't?"
"I really can't!" Gu Siwei nodded and said firmly.
It is impossible to machine this thing at the current domestic level. If you do it by hand, you can try it. Most people may think that machines are more precise, but in fact, professionally trained masters can use their own hands to create more precise products.
