Chapter 11 News



Li Hongying said, "Mom, then buy me a watch."

"We don't have the watch tickets yet, let's wait until we get them."

"Let Dad talk to Uncle, he's a high-ranking official, getting a watch ticket should be easy for him."

Li Baojun was getting impatient. His brother-in-law had always looked down on him and made so many demands. He hoped he wouldn't get scolded.

But to save face in front of his wife and daughter, he laughed and said, "It's nothing. I'll talk to your uncle about it tomorrow. Don't worry, he can get a lot of watch vouchers with just a word."

"Thank you, Dad. Oh, I'll have a watch to wear again."

The next morning, Luo Jingyan sent Luo Changtian to school and prepared to go to the post office to buy a newspaper.

Before leaving home, she specifically brought a basket from home so she could easily put the things she took from the space inside and bring them home.

When she arrived at the post office and bought a newspaper, she saw the news that Gao Tieshan had been arrested, along with his wife who worked at the same company.

Upon seeing this news, Luo Jingyan smiled and felt delighted.

Having dealt with Gao Tieshan, the next step is to take complete revenge on Luo Aiqing's family.

Since she's already at the post office, it wouldn't hurt for her to collect some stamps, would it?

According to her understanding, the "All the Mountains Are Red" stamps issued a few years ago have fetched hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan per stamp in later auctions.

The value of this set of stamps lies in their rarity, which is why they are so valuable.

When this set of stamps was first issued, it was discovered that the national map on the stamps was printed incorrectly after only half a day. This not only stopped the continued issuance of the stamps, but also led to a recall of those already issued.

Only a few that slipped through the net were preserved for posterity and sold for exorbitant prices.

Of course, besides the nationwide red stamps, there are other stamps that later sold for exorbitant prices, such as the blue military stamps used exclusively by the army, which are simply unavailable at post offices. There's also the 1980 Year of the Monkey stamp, which is no longer sold in post offices.

Luo Jingyan only hoped to buy a house where the whole country was covered in red.

She took a bright red apple out of her pocket and handed it to the woman at the window, saying, "Sister, it grew on the tree in my own yard. It's so sweet and delicious."

The older sister was also tempted by the beautiful apples and reached out to take them.

"Young lady, you must have something you need my help with. Tell me first. If I can't help you, then I can't take this apple."

Luo Jingyan said, "Big sister is such a reasonable person. I've recently been thinking about collecting stamps. Big sister, do you have any of those stamps called 'The Whole Country is Red'? I'll take as many as you have."

The older sister saw that she was dressed reasonably well and didn't suspect that she couldn't afford it; otherwise, she would have thought that she had ulterior motives.

She smiled and said, "Young lady, you've come to the right place today. We do have two here. Wait here, I'll go get them for you."

"Thank you, ma'am. Please give me one of each of the other items as well."

"OK."

The older sister put the apple in the drawer, turned and went to the warehouse. She returned a dozen minutes later with a stack of stamps, handing them to Luo Jingyan: "Little girl, would you like these? Besides the 'All the Country is Red' stamp, there are other kinds. Fifty stamps per sheet, five sheets in total, two hundred and fifty stamps."

Luo Jingyan glanced at it casually, "Okay. Big sister, you can calculate how much it costs."

"Let me take a look."

The older sister took out a piece of scrap paper and calculated the price on it.

"It's sixteen yuan in total."

"good."

Luo Jingyan immediately took out twenty yuan and gave it to the older sister, put away the stamps, and then walked out of the post office.

When she passed by the recycling station, she naturally wanted to go in and rummage around.

Because when she read novels, she knew that the female protagonists in those novels would come to the scrap yard to find treasures. Those female protagonists were usually lucky enough to find treasures at the scrap yard.

But with Black Tiger, a treasure-hunting expert, she doesn't know if she can match the good fortune of the female protagonists.

At that time, the recycling station was practically a garbage dump. Because people's living standards were generally low, the quality of the garbage they threw away was also low. Looking around, there wasn't much in the entire recycling station except for some old books and rotten newspapers, some scraps of candy wrappers, broken glass and old covers, and old wood thrown around haphazardly.

As for precious antique wooden furniture, please, if the furniture is still usable and not broken apart, basically no one is willing to sell it. Some people even chop up broken tables to burn as firewood.

There was an old man sorting recyclables in the recycling station. When he heard someone come in, he looked up and glanced at Luo Jingyan indifferently.

"Young lady, what are you doing here?" He asked, seeing that Luo Jingyan was empty-handed. "If you're not here to sell anything, then you're here to buy something, aren't you?"

"Grandpa is so smart, he figured out what I do right away." Jingyan smiled and said, "Grandpa, I want to buy some old newspapers to wallpaper the kitchen walls."

The old man was pleased to be praised and pointed to the pile of waste paper with a smile, "Young lady, there's some over there, go find it."

"Okay, sir."

Luo Jingyan approached the pile of waste paper and communicated with the black tiger in her spatial dimension using her mind: "Little darling, can you sense the presence of the treasure while you're in the space?"

Inside the space, Black Tiger was squatting on the sofa in the villa, licking its paws, when it was suddenly jolted into a daze by Luo Jingyan calling it "Little Darling".

"Master, Master, are you calling me?"

"Of course it's you! You're so well-behaved and cute, can't I call you my little darling?"

Pink bubbles practically bubbled up from Black Tiger's furry face as it wiggled its little bottom arrogantly. "Master, Black Tiger will definitely serve you. However, being in the space will affect my performance, and I may not be able to accurately sense the location and specific type of the treasure."

"Alright, come out now."

While the old man was engrossed in tidying up the junk and not paying attention to her, Luo Jingyan used her body to shield the Black Tiger from the space.

It wasn't unusual for a stray cat to suddenly appear in the junkyard, so Black Tiger brazenly started wandering around the junkyard.

The old man saw the cat but didn't try to chase it away. Rats often gnaw on waste paper in the recycling station, so the cat must have come to help him catch them.

Black Tiger circled around the scrap metal, then ran up to Luo Jingyan, raised its little head, and meowed cutely, "Meow meow meow."

There are antiques over there.

Luo Jingyan immediately looked in the direction Black Tiger was pointing. Next to the broken glass, there was a pile of old bottles and jars, as well as porcelain plates and bowls.

Luo Jingyan walked over. Most of these porcelain pieces were in good condition. Hei Hu said there were antiques among them, so she decided to look for them.
