Chapter 4: eye variation
Jiangcheng has always existed as an important town of the country since ancient times. Its history and culture have been deeply deposited. Cultural relics collections of all dynasties can be found here. Taobao collectors and collectors come here in an endless stream, so a unique antique collection culture has also been formed.
Antique Street was the place where Jiang City had the most complete collection of items and the most collectors. Of course, it could also attract tourists who came to Jiang City for tourism. Apart from antique shops on both sides of the street, a unique street stall culture had also formed in the periphery.A few newspapers, an old piece of cloth spread on the ground, put some old things can start a business. freewebnov(e)l.com
Although the market management fee is also paid, there are differences in the location of the stall. The early ones occupy a good position and there are always several business visitors a day. Therefore, before dawn, there are stall owners who occupy the position and display their belongings.
To Xu Qing, he was just passing by. He was not interested in those old things, not to mention that he only had ten yuan in his pocket.
"Little brother, help me buy a book!"A white-haired granny began to sell old books in a low voice. Unexpectedly, the moment she spoke, it attracted a burst of laughter from the stall owners next to her.
" Lady Hua, didn't you see the dewy look on this little brother's face? Maybe he ran out of trouble with his family and was even in the mood to read a book..." A stall owner dressed in a copper suit and a melon hat said.
"Look at his clothes. I'm afraid he can't even pull out a red card." 𝘧𝘳ℯℯ𝓌ℯ𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Xu Qing left in a hurry. He was wearing a vest and shorts. Moreover, he had fallen in the park just now and his body was stained with a lot of grass and dirt. He did not look like a rich owner.
The old lady smiled nonchalantly and said," The cheapest book is only five yuan a copy. It's not expensive. It's a good sign that it can be opened early in the morning."
" I think the flower lady is going crazy because she wants to open a business. How can those few quotations and Republic of China books of yours be worth five yuan each?"Another person teased.
The flower woman came to occupy the place every morning, but the business was extremely slow. In addition, the business had not opened for the past two days, so she took the initiative to shout, hoping that it would open for a good omen.
Xu Qing suddenly stopped and squatted beside the flower lady's stall to casually flip through the old books. When he picked up a broken map book with its cover off, his right eyelid twitched. A thin square piece of paper appeared in his pupils. On it was printed an elephant, and there were also words such as Qing Dynasty, Post Office, and Five Li Silver.
"Stamps?"Xu Qing's heart skipped a beat. He flipped through a few pages, only to discover that the stamp with the elephant printed on it flipped together with the page, as if it was glued to the page.
Xu Qing tried to pick at the page with his fingers, but the stamp did not move at all. There was a layer between the pages. A thought flashed through his mind. He was shocked and quickly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the pages returned to their original state, as if it was an illusion in an instant.
" Little brother, this book is quite old. If you like it, take it for ten dollars. It's considered as opening up for this old lady..." Seeing Xu Qing's lack of interest, the flower woman could not help but whisper again.
"How about eight yuan?I have two dollars left for the bus."Xu Qing put down the map book, patted the grass on his pants and stood up.
The flower woman pondered for a moment, picked up the map book and stuffed it into Xu Qing's hand." Okay, take eight dollars..."
To be able to close a deal early in the morning, even if Xu Qing offered a few more dollars, the flower woman would accept it. She had already asked someone to appraise this atlas. It was not an ancient book. It was a very ordinary early printed matter and was not worth a few dollars.
Xu Qing was also straightforward. He took out the crumpled bill from his pocket and handed it over. He casually rolled up the map book and inserted it into his pocket. He took the change and turned to leave.
After wandering around for a night, Xu Qing had already made a decision. No matter how much his sister-in-law complained, he would insist on doing the work introduced by Sister Zhu. No matter how hard he worked, he would have to earn his own living.
Xu Qing didn't take the bus. Instead, she chose to walk. She saved two yuan and could afford to eat breakfast at the snack bar downstairs.
When she walked to the breakfast stall, she met another acquaintance, the beautiful landlord Zhu Xiaoling. At this time, she was lowering her head and sipping soup noodles. Her back was facing Xu Qing, but she could recognize her at a glance from her back.
" Boss, a bowl of noodle soup costs two yuan..." Xu Qing called out in a low voice. Two yuan noodle soup was already very rare in Jiang City. Only such remote snack stalls could have it. It could be considered as a small profit but quick turnover.
"Alright!A bowl of unsized noodles."
This was a father-son restaurant. The father was in charge of the kitchen, and the son in his early twenties acted as the waiter. This shout was even more ingenious, attracting the two young people who followed him to join in.
"Boss, give me a bowl of thin shredded pork noodles..."
"Oh!I want something big, add more Wuteng Orchid...wrong, beef brisket..."
Hahaha...
A stone stirred up thousands of waves, and a no-code actually brought Wuteng Lan out, causing customers to burst into laughter.Zhu Xiaoling also turned around in surprise. When she saw Xu Qing sitting behind her, she frowned slightly and walked over with a bowl of noodles and sat opposite him.
"Noodles?"
"Yes!"
Coincidentally, the boss's son brought the noodles over and heard the conversation between the two of them. He smiled slightly and said," Eat noodles and use fresh noodles!"Then he pointed to the corner of the table.
Zhu Xiaoling thought of an advertisement slogan. The corners of her tight lips curled up immediately. She glanced at the unsized noodles in her bowl and smiled." Help him add some ribs."
"Alright!"The kid answered and walked back with the bowl.
" No need..." Xu Qing pinched the two yuan in his pocket, feeling a little uneasy.
"What do you mean, no need? It's on me."Zhu Xiaoling seemed to have noticed Xu Qing's difficulties. She smiled and said," Where did you go last night? Your sister-in-law didn't sleep the whole night. If it's difficult, forget that I didn't say anything about yesterday..."
"No, I have to do this job, but I have to trouble you with something."Xu Qing bit her lip and said," I'll definitely do it well. Just don't tell my sister-in-law."
"Well, I'm sorry.Go back and rest well. I'll call you when I'm alive."Zhu Xiaoling nodded and left after settling the bill.Xu Qing looked at her beautiful back and felt a trace of warmth rising in his heart.Big Sister Zhu was a good person, but she looked a little tough when she lost her temper.
