The Era of Hard Work

Coming out of Zhengda Artwork Company, Lu Dong wandered around the neighborhood, did not go to the West Market, took the car back to Qingzhao County, the leeches and cicada monkeys are not in a hurry, although they are seasonal pests, there are still many pests in summer. long time.

On the contrary, the matter of antiques may have a result tomorrow.

The company asked to pay first, and 90% of them are liars. With Lu Dong's observation, it is basically certain.

As a good young man, determined to be a simple and honest person, of course he can't let the liar go!

Be sure to report it!

But reporting points method.

Therefore, Lu Dong still decided to continue going tomorrow, to thoroughly find out the tricks of the liar.

By the way, find a way to sell your own things and make some money.

Well... it's for sale!

Lu Dong has no capital, his family is in a mediocre situation, and he has no valuable resources, but he can go to work on the construction site.

The problem is that the master craftsman is not good at skills, and the small workers are more than ten dollars a day, and the money is still paid for several months, or even once every six months.

Most of the ways to get rich quickly are written on it, and they must not be touched.

Therefore, this group of scammers might be an opportunity. Given the situation Lu Dong was facing, it was difficult to find an opportunity to earn hundreds or even thousands at a time.

Even if you gain nothing, you have nothing to lose.

Lu Dong swears, this is really just incidental.

Soon he will be an advanced individual in Qingzhao County. He has a very high level of ideological awareness, okay?

Having said that, the family's ability to resist risks must be strengthened. Last time in the brigade's office, he heard the accountant mention that Qingzhao is about to collect and withdraw funds from the coordinator.

At least a few hundred yuan for two people.

There are also orchards, where there are too many variables, and all the fruits may be wiped out in a bad weather.

When Lu Dong was in Zhengda Company, he had an initial idea, so he made some preparations.

Passing through the university city by car, some road sections are under traffic control, and it seems that leaders have come to inspect.

Lu Dong thought of his eldest brother Lu Chun at the police station in the university town, this posture...

Sure enough, when he got home, his wife Hu Chunlan told him that Lu Chun had something to do at work, so he couldn't come back today, and he would go to his uncle another day.

In the afternoon, Lu Dong didn't run around. He went to the cornfield with his wife to spray herbicides. At the same time, he was thinking about tomorrow's affairs carefully.

Busy until evening, when he went back to the orchard for dinner, Lu Dong didn't have the heart to catch the cicada monkey, so he returned to the old house early with something to eat, took a shower and washed his clothes, thinking about tomorrow's affairs while packing up.

I continued to carry the small white porcelain dish, and I wanted other old items.

Lu Dong knew very well that a businessman would not scatter eagles if he did not see a rabbit.

The image of him as a simple and honest boy and trusting Chia Tai Company is almost the same as it is today.

If he hadn't been confident, Zhao Wei would have urged him to call home to raise money instead of going tomorrow.

The rest are rabbits.

Money, Lu Dong did not.

Today I took three bus trips, each with a CMB back and forth, bought sesame seed cakes, and stored bicycles, costing 7.5 yuan.

The remaining 11.5 yuan for a haircut is only 4 yuan.

Tomorrow is not going well, and there is not enough money for the car ride back.

There is a sense that the wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone.

Lu Dong finally decided to ride a bicycle to the East Outer Ring Station, where there is a place to store bicycles, and then take a bus to Shunshan.

It is not possible to ride a bicycle to the past, and it is convenient and flexible to retreat.

Then there are those old things, also rabbits.

Lu Dong went to the main room. There were several antique things in it. The antique celadon vases on the upper and lower cabinets were too big and inconvenient to carry. In case of accident, although they were worthless, it would be a pity to throw them away.

Further down, there are celadon bowls and plates behind the glass sliding door. These are foreign trade ceramics bought by Cheng Lifeng's cousin, which are cheap, exquisite and strong.

It has also been used as a rice bowl and vegetable dish for many years.

Lu Dong took two bowls and a plate, plus a small white porcelain saucer, found rags and waste cotton, and wrapped them layer by layer to prevent collisions.

Then, I looked at the wall and found the least yellowed and worst horizontal-axis regular script, took it off, wiped off the dust, rolled it up and tied it.

There was no artificial leather handbag, so Lu Dong found an old schoolbag from junior high school, put the wrapped bowls and plates into it, and stuffed it with torn clothes.

After thinking about it, I found some paper, wrapped it with cloth layers according to the size of 100 yuan, tied it with a red rope, and stuffed it into the bag.

The scroll is a bit long and I can't fit it in, so I just find a furoshiki to wrap it up and take it with me tomorrow.

I didn't go to the West Market today, so Lu Dong took out the black convenience bag in his handbag, opened it and rushed out a smell, that is to say, he was often influenced by Uncle Tie these two days, otherwise he would have to vomit.

The leeches that were exposed to the sun were only dried to death, and they were not completely dried. They were covered with convenient bags for a day, and they stink.

It can only be thrown in the trash can, but fortunately, you can go directly to the West Market to ask.

After tidying up, it was getting late, Lu Dong lay down early, but his head was full of thoughts about what would happen tomorrow, and he would not be able to fall asleep for a while.

After tossing and turning for a while, Lu Dong figured it out. In addition to being prepared for this kind of thing, it is more important to adapt to the situation.

If it doesn't work, just withdraw.

The next day, Lu Dong got up early, washed up, changed into a white jersey, and specially found a phone book at home to keep his eldest brother Lu Chun's phone number and pager number firmly in mind.

This is just in case.

With pickled vegetables and cold water, he ate half a piece of steamed buns. Before six o'clock, Lu Dong carried his old schoolbag on his back, tied the fur skin on the horizontal shaft, and set off on his bicycle, heading straight to Quannan City.

This way, you will either become a rich man with a net worth of three or four figures, or continue to be a poor man with a single-digit net worth.

The weather is suitable for going out today, the clouds cover the sun, and the northeast wind brings coolness.

Leaving the south entrance of the village, Lu Dong met the iron rooster who got up early to exercise.

"Where are you going, Dongzi?" Iron Rooster had a radio on his wrist, and the prelude to exciting music was playing.

"Morning, Uncle Tie."

Lu Dong smiled: "Let's go around the city."

He rode a bicycle and passed the iron rooster, and Peking opera singing came from the music.

"Through the forest sea, cross the snow field, and rush into the sky..."

Lu Dong pedaled his bicycle farther and farther, and the last sentence he heard was: "Even if it is a sea of ​​fire and a mountain of knives, I will rush forward!"

The weather was cool, the wind was smooth, and Lu Dong was full of fighting spirit. He arrived at the East Outer Ring Station in just over an hour, stored his bicycles, and took a bus to the Shunshan Cultural Market.

At half past eight, Lu Dong got off the car and arrived at Mount Shun.

This place has not changed much from now on. Lu Dong has been here before, and went around twice to make sure that the exits of several markets are unobstructed. He specially adjusted the backpack to his chest, hugged it firmly with one hand, and held it with the other. On the horizontal axis, come to the front of the antique building.

There were many people at the entrance of the building, so Lu Dong asked where the toilet was.

Like most old-fashioned buildings, there is no bathroom inside the small building, and you have to go to the public toilet 30 meters away to the east.

After going to the bathroom, Lu Dong entered the Zhengda Art Company. It was early today, and seven or eight people were queuing up on the first floor. It is estimated that there are quite a few people waiting for identification.

Many people held "Taidong Weekly" in their hands, which shows that the newspaper's publicity effect is very good.

In this day and age people have a relatively high level of trust in the media.

Later, more and more people realized that even the big media will bow down for five buckets of rice, and the lower limit of various soft articles and advertisements should not be too low.

Lu Dong also saw that someone came out of the cubicle, shook his head and left, not interested in cooperating with Zhengda Art Company.

There are people who are overwhelmed by greed, and there are also people who are cautious.

"Dongzi!" Zhao Wei came up to meet him, and nodded secretly when he saw Lu Dong hugging his backpack tightly.

Lu Dong hurried forward two steps, feeling a little uneasy: "How many people are there today?"

Zhao Wei said with a smile: "They all came here for the appraisal." His name was exhortation, but in fact he was probing: "There are many people with mixed hands, and the money is packed."

Lu Dong patted the backpack: "Don't worry, it's inside, I can't lose it."

Zhao Wei was relieved now, and pulled Lu Dong into the cubicle, looked at the backpack: "You brought the antiques too?"

"Yeah." Lu Dong put down the horizontal axis: "Look at this first."

Then he opened the old schoolbag and took out the tight package. When he was taking out the bowl, Lu Dong deliberately took out the paper-wrapped cloth bag and put it on hand.

Zhao Wei unwrapped the scroll in his hand, glanced over from Lu Dong's side from time to time, and immediately saw the cloth bag. From the size, length and width, it was not difficult to judge that it was wrapped in hundred-yuan bills.

This thickness does not know how many layers are wrapped, and it is too careful.

Taking out four pieces of porcelain, Lu Dong hurriedly put the cloth bag back into the bag.

Zhao Wei's gaze also turned to the schoolbag, the cloth bag seemed to be magnetic...

On a horizontal axis, three pieces of porcelain showed their true appearance. Zhao Wei looked at them one by one. The paper on the horizontal axis was yellow, and the porcelain was exquisite and simple.

"It can't be true?" he asked, "That's all?"

Lu Dong said embarrassedly: "There are still more at home, my mother won't let me bring more."

Zhao Wei said: "From my point of view, they are all genuine products! Cui Cui! Cui Cui! Go to Professor Liang's group of Dongzi and join the team."

Lu Dong shyly said, "No rush."

"It's okay." When Zhao Wei saw the money, Lu Dong was not in a hurry, he was in a hurry!

5000 yuan! According to the statistics of Quannan, a sub-provincial city, the average annual income of urban workers last year was only so much.

The duck in hand can't fly!

Huang Cuicui came back soon after leaving, and said, "Professor is all right, shall we go there?"

Zhao Wei looked at Lu Dong, who held Bao tightly: "Okay."

Huang Cuicui walked forward with two rice bowls, Lu Dong held the bag in one hand and the horizontal axis in the other, and Zhao Wei followed behind with the vinegar dish and vegetable dishes.

This peculiar team attracted the attention of all the appraisers.

Entering the Red Gate office room, everything was placed on the table one by one. Liang Yong first picked up the horizontal axis and shook his head, as if he was appreciating it carefully.

After a while, Liang Yong said: "This horizontal axis is amazing! The pen runs through the silver snake, the force penetrates the back of the paper, the clouds flow and the water flows, and the iron draws the silver hook. The signature is Zhenshan Layman, everyone! The only pity is that the time is short. In the early Republic of China Calligraphy everyone!"

Although Lu Dong was sitting, it was very difficult. It was not easy to put on an appearance of being taught, but also to suppress a smile.

What the Republic of China everyone! His grandfather's name is Lu Zhenshan, okay?

This was written over the past eight years, okay?

This is a big fool.

The value of the shallow dish is estimated to be only a few dozen yuan, and it may sell for hundreds or thousands in the Shunshan market, but the premise is that it can fool people.

He figured it out, this business is full of scams and abductions, and everyone has a dark heart.

In comparison, Cheng Lifeng, who took advantage of the flood to make money for his own village, was considered a good guy.

Later, Professor Liang Da identified the two rice bowls and one vegetable plate as celadon porcelain in the middle and late Qing Dynasty.

This is going to come to the palace building office, and Professor Liang Da can't afford it.

In the end, Liang Yong gave a total market valuation of 140,000 for the four items.

Lu Dong was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. No matter how he looked at it, he was a fool who was dazzled by money.

Thinking of that thick cloth bag, Zhao Wei also laughed, looking very happy for Lu Dong.

Huang Cuicui, Lu Dong, and Zhao Wei left the appraisal room with their things in their arms and returned to the cubicle.

After putting the things away, Zhao Wei punched Lu Dong lightly on purpose: "Okay, Dongzi! You will become a rich man now, remember me in the future!"

"Of course! Of course!" Lu Dong laughed happily, "You two are my God of Wealth!"
