Chapter 23 Song Tang gives Lu Jinyan a token of love!
She planned to give Lu Jinyan a jade seal that she carved herself.
In her previous life, her mother was a domineering president and her father was a world-leading master of cultural relics restoration.
Her seven brothers are also extremely talented in their respective fields.
She is smart, learns things very quickly, and has mastered many skills.
She said she was a hexagonal warrior, and she wasn't bragging at all.
In addition to restoring cultural relics, her father's favorite thing is jade carving.
She studied with her father for a period of time, and her father praised her with satisfaction, saying that she was better than her father and was worthy of being his beloved daughter.
She believed that Lu Jinyan would definitely love the jade seal she carved with her own hands!
After all, she had only been in this era for a short time, and she didn't know where to buy suitable jade.
She could only go out and try her luck to see if she could buy jade of good quality.
"Tangtang, when will you write the next chapter of Heroic Aspirations?"
As soon as Song Tang arrived at the yard, he ran into Lu Shaoyou.
When he grinned, his twelve big white teeth were revealed, full of youthfulness.
"Can you tell me first why Mr. Fang wants to become a monk? Tangtang, just tell me if it's okay, I'm really anxious."
Song Tang, "..."
He looked very anxious, as if he was in a hurry.
It was difficult to explain the reason why Mr. Fang became a monk in a few words. Song Tang thought about it and said, "I'll tell you in the next chapter. I'm almost done writing it and will give it to you tomorrow morning."
"Very good!"
Lu Shaoyou was so excited that he jumped high and smiled brightly.
He grabbed the broom in the yard and fought with great vigor, as if he really thought of himself as the great hero Fang.
Song Tang was a little embarrassed to watch.
However, thinking that Lu Shaoyou had lived in the capital for so many years, he must know where to buy jade of good quality, she still asked him, "Do you know where to buy Hetian seed jade?"
"Tangtang, you've found the right person!"
He was so happy that he could help Song Tang.
He threw away the broom in his hand and pulled over the Phoenix bicycle that he had placed against the wall.
"Get in the car! I'll take you to a nice place!"
Lu Shaoyou rides a bicycle very well.
Soon, he drove Song Tang to the destination.
Song Tang didn't expect that the place he took her to was actually the black market.
In 1975, there was no reform and opening up yet.
Selling things privately is speculation.
However, the things sold in state-owned stores, supply and marketing cooperatives and other places could not meet the needs of everyone, so the black market emerged.
The black market of that era opened Song Tang's eyes.
On the black market, there are not only daily necessities such as rice, flour, oil, and sugar, but also jade and porcelain.
There are even people selling antiques.
Of course, there are fakes and real ones among those antiques, and it is up to the buyers to distinguish them themselves.
In his previous life, Song Tang had been exposed to antiques since he was a child, and it can be said that he had developed a pair of keen eyes.
She noticed an authentic painting by Tang Bohu at first glance.
She asked the vendor the price, and he bought it from someone else and sold it for ten dollars.
In this era, ten dollars is already a lot of money.
But decades later, some of Tang Bohu's authentic works were sold at auction for hundreds of millions of dollars.
Compared with hundreds of millions, ten dollars is really not a lot of money.
Song Tang had a total of more than 60 yuan in her hand. She bargained with the vendor and finally bought the painting for eight yuan.
The hawker was grinning from ear to ear, feeling that he had been taken advantage of.
Song Tang was also happy.
She knew she couldn't go home.
Now that she has come to this era, she must live well. Decades later, she may be able to become a wealthy woman with the help of this painting.
Soon, Song Tang also found a stall selling Hetian seed jade.
In the 21st century when Song Tang lived in his previous life, high-quality Hetian seed jade was really expensive.
On Song Tang's eighteenth birthday, her mother gave her a set of fine Hetian jade jewelry as a birthday gift.
The total value of head ornaments, hairpins, earrings, pendants and bracelets is tens of millions.
In this era, a piece of Hetian seed jade the size of an egg costs only one cent, which is almost the price of an egg.
Two kilograms of Hetian seed jade is only a little over two yuan.
If possible, Song Tang would really like to buy hundreds of kilograms of Hetian seed jade.
But she had limited money, so she could only choose a dozen pieces of high-quality Hetian seed jade, and spent another three yuan to buy a set of tools for jade carving.
"Little girl, I have an original work of Wu Daozi here. Do you want to take it back too?"
Seeing that Song Tang was very wealthy, the painting vendor couldn't help but shout at the top of his voice to sell her other ancient paintings.
Song Tang wants it.
However, just as she was about to go over, she heard the sentry at the black market shouting, "Tianlongdihu!"
Hearing this voice, the painting vendor no longer bothered to sell his products to Song Tang. He rolled up his things and ran away.
The other vendors also ran very fast.
"Tangtang, get in the car!"
Song Tang was confused.
But when she heard Lu Shaoyou calling her to get in the car, she tied the sack and quickly sat in the back seat.
After sitting down and listening to Lu Shaoyou's explanation, she realized that "Tianlong Dihu" was a code word. The patrolling police were coming and everyone had to run quickly. Otherwise, not only would the items on the stalls be confiscated, but they would also have to pay a fine.
In more serious cases, you may end up in jail, so setting up a stall on the black market may earn you a lot, but the risks are also high.
Song Tang felt very sorry for not buying Wu Daozi's paintings today.
However, she will have plenty of opportunities to visit the black market in the future.
She had to find a way to make more money and buy more jade.
The value of these Hetian seed jades can really appreciate hundreds of thousands of times in a few decades.
If she is lucky and finds some antiques, decades later she will be able to count money until her hands cramp.
It’s so beautiful just thinking about it!
However, the most important thing at the moment is to be admitted into the art troupe.
After all, her biggest dream is to become a dancer.
In the following days, Song Tang, in addition to writing novels and carving jade, practiced basic skills.
Of course, she also didn't forget Lin He's birthday.
She also took the time to prepare a special and exquisite birthday gift for Lin He.
Song Qingyao also carefully prepared a birthday gift for Lin He.
She was certain that the birthday gift Song Tang prepared couldn't be better than hers.
But in order to make Lin He like her more and hate Song Tang, she decided to do something secretly to make Song Tang look bad in public!
She had already noticed the gift box Song Tang placed on the desk.
This afternoon, after making sure that Song Tang was not at home, she pushed open Song Tang's half-open door and tiptoed into her room.
There was also an exquisite card on the gift box.
Happy birthday to Aunt Lin.
Song Qingyao sneered disdainfully.
The bumpkin really has no literary talent at all, he can only say "Happy Birthday".
I also tied a big bow on the gift box with a pink ribbon...
So vulgar!
She quickly untied the bow, opened the gift box, and saw the birthday present Song Tang prepared for Lin He.
A navy blue dress.
I made it by modifying the ugly clothes she gave me.
A bumpkin is a bumpkin, he is stingy and can't be presentable!
Song Qingyao raised her chin proudly, took out the dress, and wrote an English word on it with the red paint she had prepared in advance.
Bitch.
She knew that Song Tang, an illiterate, definitely didn't know that bitch meant female dog or whore.
But Lin He, Qin Xiuzhi and others all know English, so they naturally know that bitch is used to insult people.
When Song Tang shows the birthday gift she gave to Lin He in public tonight, she will not only become a laughing stock in everyone's eyes, but will also be completely disliked by Lin He!
She was waiting to see Song Tang behave in a disgraceful manner and be deserted by his friends and relatives!
