After taking the train for three days, even though it was a sleeper train, Lu Jiaxin was still very tired, so she didn't go to the antique shop and went straight home.

Originally, Lu Jiaxin only bought the house of Sun Xun's family. In April, Lu Jiaxin asked Master Qian to buy the second and third courtyards and hired someone to renovate them.

Seeing Lu Jiaxin standing at the door and looking at the main door without moving, Master Qian said with a smile: "The house has been bought, and it doesn't look good to use the side door anymore, so I renovated the main door according to the original layout."

There used to be three gates, but the Sun family didn't want to be too conspicuous, so they built the gates with bricks and opened a door on the edge. Although it was inappropriate, it must be said that Sun Xun's grandfather was very smart, and his children and grandchildren were not affected by the storm.

Master Qian hired a master to knock down the bricks used to build the main door, and then sealed the side door. Knowing from Qian Xiaoxiao that Lu Jiaxin liked antique things, he specially spent a lot of money to get a solid wood door and painted it. After the redo, standing at the door, you can tell that this is a wealthy family.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "This house is not mine, it belongs to Xue Mao."

Master Qian thought Xue Mao was lucky, as he had picked up someone in the middle of the night and now not only owned a large house with three entrances, but he could also learn cooking from a master chef. However, his family was not bad either, so Xiao Xiao would not have to worry about her life if she followed him.

I walked through the gate and entered the house. Although it was the same yard, it felt completely different. The last time I came, the house was shabby and the yard was full of things, which made it look very small. Now the yard has been cleared of things, a jujube tree has been planted in the right corner, and the doors and windows of the house are all new and bright.

Lu Jiaxin went to the second and third courtyards to take a look. The courtyards and houses were well maintained. "Master Qian, thank you for your hard work."

The father and his two sons who helped him look for a house bought two houses before this one was renovated. Although they were not as spacious as this one, they felt more at ease living in their own house.

Master Qian smiled and said, "I just supervise them, it's not hard work."

It's not like he worked for nothing, Lu Jiaxin paid him, and he even hoped to come more often! Even Old Sun was very grateful to him, saying that he had introduced him to a good job.

The next day, Lu Jiaxin went to the antique street to look at her own antique shop. The antique shop was not big, only about 20 square meters, and it was filled with things. There were exquisite porcelain and jade, simple bronze and utensils, calligraphy and paintings, and various small items.

When the group entered, Old Sun was talking to a young man. Lu Jiaxin did not disturb them and just wandered around the store.

The young man begged, "Boss, this thing is passed down from our ancestors. If it weren't for my father's medical treatment, I wouldn't sell it. Boss, five hundred yuan is not enough for my father's medical expenses, please add a little more!"

When Lu Jiaxin heard this, she couldn't help but look up. Seeing that the young man was fair and tender, she lowered her head to look at the jade token in her hand.

Old Sun said, "Six hundred, this is the highest price. If you don't want to sell it, forget it. I dare say that no one on this street will offer a higher price than this."

The young man still felt that the price was too low, but after asking three dealers, the highest offer was only 480 yuan. Now he was short of money, so he had to sell it.

After taking the money, the young man disappeared in a flash.

Master Qian smiled and said, "Old Sun, this is Miss Lu from the boss family."

As soon as Lu Jiaxin entered the antique shop, she looked at Shopkeeper Sun. The old man was wearing a long gown and looked very sophisticated and old-fashioned.

Shopkeeper Sun leaned forward and respectfully performed an old-fashioned greeting: "Old Sun greets the boss."

Lu Jiaxin quickly stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Sun, this is a new society, this kind of thing is no longer popular."

Master Qian looked at the porcelain vase on the counter and said, "Boss, this vase is so beautiful. You can take it home and use it to arrange flowers."

Shopkeeper Sun lowered his voice and said, "Boss, I also received a good bottle yesterday and put it in my room. Come with me to the backyard and I will show it to you."

Qian Xiaoxiao was left to look after the shop, while the others went to the backyard. When Master Qian rented the shop, he also took into consideration that Old Sun had a child, and it would be very convenient for the two of them to live in the back of the shop.

When Lu Jiaxin saw the bottle brought by Shopkeeper Sun, her eyes almost popped out of her head in shock. The pattern on the bottle turned out to be a picture of Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon.

The porcelain vase with this pattern was later sold for more than seven small items at an auction. It is said that there were three porcelain vases in total, and two were lost. Unexpectedly, she would receive one.

Shopkeeper Sun saw her expression and knew that she recognized it: "Boss, this is a rare treasure, so I bought it at a high price."

Master Qian asked, "How much?"

"Five thousand dollars."

If Lu Jiaxin hadn't been staring at the bottle, Master Qian would definitely say it was too expensive, but now he just thought it was a good job.

Master Qian said with a smile: "Boss, since Old Sun received such a good thing, he should be given a big red envelope."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I like both of these bottles very much. I will definitely give you a big red envelope. In addition, the things you received before were all real. I will give you an extra reward."

She was very generous to her subordinates. For example, Master Sun, in addition to the 300 yuan salary per month, also received bonuses, and additional rewards for receiving treasures.

Master Qian leaned over and asked, "Boss, do I have a share?"

Lu Jiaxin cashed in the reward on the spot and gave Master Sun 1200. 1000 was the reward for the batch of goods shipped to the port city, which were all treasures, and 200 was 100 each for the two bottles. As for Master Qian, he was also given a reward of 500.

Master Qian was not dissatisfied. This antique shop was supported by Old Sun, and he was responsible for driving away those who came to cause trouble.

When Master Qian saw that she had green coins in her wallet, he couldn't help but ask, "Boss, can I exchange these five hundred for green coins?"

Lu Jiaxin was puzzled: "What do you want the green currency for?"

Every time she goes back to the mainland, she will exchange it for green currency. Now the mainland advocates foreign exchange, and it is more convenient to do things with green currency. For example, drivers in the old city like to pick up foreigners because they pay in foreign currency.

Master Qian smiled and said, "Everyone likes green coins, right? But many old guys have never seen this thing. I'll exchange it for some to open their eyes."

Lu Jiaxin only had 100-yuan notes in her hand, so she gave him two: "The difference will be deducted from your small salary when the time comes."

Now one green coin can be exchanged for about three Chinese dollars, and this is the exchange rate given by the government. Two hundred green coins can be exchanged for more than six hundred on the black market. It's not that the hundred dollars is short, but that everything must follow the rules.

"good."
