Chapter 1840 Buy All the Information 2
If we only consider the salary, according to Feng Qingxue and her family's lavish spending, it is not enough for them to collect, which is a costly business. But they have gold in their hands. There is a huge amount of gold in the property belonging to their branch of the Lu family alone. Moreover, with the help of metal detectors, Feng Qingxue and Lu Jiang also got a lot of gold and silver.
Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times.
Although the price of gold in the future will definitely not be comparable to what it is now, and will rise to hundreds of yuan per gram in a few decades, it is still not as profitable as the huge profits from antiques. If you don’t have money to buy antiques, you can just sell the gold. Anyway, the gold doesn’t have much cultural value if you keep it.
However, there are not many valuable antiques in the scrap collection station.
Feng Qingxue searched carefully for a long time but only found more than ten antiques. However, she found quite a few high school textbooks. She put a few calligraphy and paintings among them and paid the bill with the staff at the scrap yard.
When the staff asked her why she bought these textbooks, Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "I think the country will definitely resume the college entrance examination one day, so the young people in my hometown have started to review. I came to Shanghai to buy review materials and found some in the scrap yard, so I picked some and sent them home."
The staff member was pleasantly surprised and asked, "College Entrance Examination? Will the College Entrance Examination really be resumed?"
"I think the possibility is very high, so I'm preparing early."
"That's great. To be honest, comrade, I've been thinking about this for a long time recently. The bad elements who caused the trouble have been cleared out, and some cadres and intellectuals have started to resume their work. Shouldn't students continue to go to school? My kids are very studious, but there are no universities to recruit them, and we as parents don't have the ability. After they graduated from high school, they could only follow the country's policy to go to the countryside, and were assigned to poor and remote places. Although they received some resettlement allowances, they suffered a lot later. We as parents felt very distressed, but they couldn't go back to the city. Even if the places where they were sent to work occasionally had a few places to go back to the city, they couldn't get them. If the college entrance examination is really resumed, I have to send them review materials as soon as possible so that they can prepare well. Even if they are admitted to junior colleges, they don't have to suffer in the countryside, and they will be assigned jobs by the state at that time."
Feng Qingxue laughed again after hearing this, and was also touched by the staff's love for children. "If your child really loves to study, then plan as early as possible. Anyway, our children are reviewing."
The staff member nodded heavily, "I'll go buy them the information after get off work!"
They were just chatting casually, but they never expected that Feng Qingxue's reminder would lead to three college students and two junior college students in this staff member's family, and none of them failed in the college entrance examination.
This is a later story, so let’s not talk about it for now.
Feng Qingxue first put the review materials she brought out from the scrap collection station in the guesthouse, then turned and went to Xinhua Bookstore. The "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" was only sold at Xinhua Bookstore, and it would become difficult to find the book in the future.
Unexpectedly, red books still occupy 80% of the space in the bookstore, and other books and review materials are very few.
"No college entrance examination review materials? No "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry"?" Feng Qingxue was surprised after hearing what the staff said. Didn't they say they were sold here? And according to her memory, after the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came out, there would be a long queue in front of Xinhua Bookstore, all to buy these materials, indicating that they were sold in the bookstore.
