The old man, who had a few missing teeth, smiled happily and put the cigarette above his ear: "Walk inside, the pile on the east side, no one has turned it over yet!"
Lu Zhiye smiled and thanked him for the reminder.
Nowadays, when some old things are sent to scrap collection stations, they will be searched by many people.
Some people who know what they are doing go to scrap yards to see if there is anything that has been missed.
Lu Zhiye went straight to the pile in the east and looked at the neatly arranged objects.
The first thing that caught his eye was a lame pearwood table. Lu Zhiye thought that he was still lacking a table at the head of his bed, so he moved the table out.
He reached under the table again and found a small drawer that had been opened.
Lu Zhiye followed that drawer and reached to the side.
When he touched a raised area, his brows lit up with joy.
He pressed the raised area hard, and a box popped out and landed right in his palm.
There were several land deeds and six small yellow croakers inside.
Lu Zhiye took a look at the land deed. It was from Harbin, but the date was from the Qing Dynasty.
Probably not approving now, he threw both things into the space.
Lu Zhiye rummaged around a few more times and found some scrap iron parts. It was not easy to find iron in a scrap yard at that time.
After thinking about it, I threw it into the space.
Just as he was about to walk inside, a small stone under his feet was kicked away by him and hit the cabinet in the corner directly.
Lu Zhiye raised his eyebrows and strode towards there.
The cabinet in front of me looks like an old item, so black that it’s hard to tell what it’s made of.
One of the cabinet doors was missing, and even the grids inside had been removed.
There was only a jewelry box scattered on the bottom layer.
The jewelry box was empty. Lu Zhiye sniffed slightly and there was a slight fragrance coming from the jewelry box.
If you don't pay attention, it can easily be covered by the smell of rotting wood nearby.
Lu Zhiye wiped it, took it out and smelled it carefully, then held it in the sun and took a look at it.
I understood and put it on the table.
Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly remembered what my grandmother once said: in this kind of wardrobe, the secret compartment is usually at the bottom.
Lu Zhiye turned around, half-knelt on the ground, and with the help of the sunlight, he finally found a lighter wooden line at the bottom of the wardrobe.
He followed the mark of the piece of wood and looked at the hem of the wardrobe.
Finally, I found a loose spot on the innermost side.
When Lu Zhiye opened the secret compartment, it was filled with large yellow croakers, which made his face turn yellow.
He quickly put all the yellow croakers into the space and put the cabinet back in place.
My little heart was beating fast.
Even Mr. Lu, who had been glorious in his previous life, had never seen so many large yellow croakers at once.
Could this have been hidden by some warlord’s rich wife?
Thinking of the agarwood dressing box just now, in ancient times, only people in the royal palace could use it.
Lu Zhiye was afraid of getting into trouble, so he put the dressing box into the space.
He found some books and newspapers, then carried the table and walked out.
When they arrived at the gate, the old man saw that he had only found these things, and asked with a smile: "Did you look for them again?"
Lu Zhiye smiled naively: "The house is short of a table. I think it can still be used if I add some legs to it. Give the newspapers and books to my sister. She loves to study!"
The old man understood: "Just give me one dollar in total."
Lu Zhiye gave the money, took the things and left.
I walked to the entrance of the alley, put my things into the space, and sat under a big tree not far away to enjoy the cool air.
After a while, He Hongmei came over pushing a brand new bicycle.
Seeing Lu Zhiye, he smiled and shouted, "Brother Lu, it's done! This is the bicycle driver's license. I paid the tax of 1.2 yuan today. It's paid once a year. Please pay attention to the date and don't let it expire.
Otherwise, you will be fined if you are caught. The stamped sign is ready.”
Lu Zhiye took out one dollar and fifty cents from his pocket and said, "Thank you, sister. I'm sorry for delaying your lunch. I'll use this money to buy two buns."
He Hongmei felt a little embarrassed. She had just taken a few cents from the other person, and this guy gave her another three cents more.
She said sorry and said no, but she took all the money with her hands.
Lu Zhiye chuckled, causing He Hongmei's face to turn red.
She waved her hand and said, "Next time there is a defective cloth, I will leave you two feet!"
Lu Zhiye was also happy to accept it.
Human relationships can only last long if there is give and take.
Judging from the salesperson's attitude towards He Hongmei, her family must have some connections.
Build a good relationship with her and tell her what you need in advance.
You don’t have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in person, which can save you a lot of trouble.
Now there are many educated youth in the village, and Qin Zhiping and his friends will definitely be frequent visitors to the supply and marketing cooperative in the future.
Lu Zhiye didn't want to be caught, so he naturally had to make plans early.
You asked Lu Zhiye why he didn’t just go to the black market to get things, wouldn’t it be more convenient?
You have to know that in Xiaoqiang and the others' minds, Lu Zhiye is an influential and capable supplier.
Rice, flour, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are of course not a problem, not to mention other things.
The movements of the black market are all in their hands. If they do it once or twice, it won't be noticeable, but if it happens too often, it will be bad if the people in the black market can find out their background.
It’s better to buy tickets from them, it’s safer to buy them from the supply and marketing cooperative.
After all, bills are in short supply these days, everyone can use them, and everyone needs them.
Lu Zhiye said in a low voice: "Sister He, our village killed a wild boar, and each family shared some of it. We can't bear to eat it, so my mother asked me to exchange it. Do you want it?"
He Hongmei was overjoyed, and she took Lu Zhiye to their home, saying as she walked, "I knew I had the right person. I didn't expect Brother Lu to be thinking about me. Let's go, let's go to my home!"
He Hongmei's house is not far away, just around the corner of the alley.
She opened the door and said, "There are two families living in this courtyard of ours. Neither of them is here. Come in!"
"Boss, boss, come out quickly!"
A little boy about ten years old came out of the house, smiling happily: "Mom, you're back!"
He Hongmei touched his head: "Have you eaten? Do you have classes this afternoon?"
The little boy shook his head: "I don't have classes this afternoon, my sister just woke up, and I haven't eaten yet!"
He Hongmei looked distressed and was about to make food for her son.
Suddenly, he remembered that Lu Zhiye was at the door, so he waved at him: "Haohao, call Brother Lu!"
Li Hao looked at Lu Zhiye in front of him curiously, and Lu Zhiye took out a candy and handed it to him.
Suddenly the child smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.
"Sister He, I won't go in. The meat is with my brother. I'll go get it and come back in a while."
He Hongmei nodded repeatedly.
Lu Zhiye pushed his bicycle and soon disappeared.
He put the bicycle into the space, put on a backpack, thought for a moment, and then put another 20 kilograms of rice and noodles in it.
When Lu Zhiye arrived at He Hongmei's house again, Li Hao was playing with stones at the door.
Seeing him coming, she patted her dusty hands and pulled Lu Zhiye inside.
