1952: Walking through Nantongluo Alley

When he activated his golden eyes and swept across the stone.

Chen Xiao's breathing became rapid.

[The jadeite rough stone was formed 500 million years ago and is now millions of years old. The surface is intact and smooth, and there is jadeite inside.]

【Identification is continuing...】

[Emerald grade, Imperial green! About the size of a fist.]

【Value: 9 yuan.】

......

52 yuan in 9 would be worth at least one million yuan in the 21st century.

Chen Xiao suppressed his inner excitement.

You can't be impatient now. If the other party doesn't sell, you will suffer a big loss.

He parked his bike and asked the couple in a calm tone.

"Hey, are you still selling that stone?"

"It seems like you two are having a hard time. If you two want to sell it, I'll buy it back for 10 yuan. I'll consider it a good deed today."

After hearing this, the woman frowned and said.

“Isn’t 10 yuan a bit too little…”

"My wife bought this stone for 80 yuan. Selling it for 50 yuan is already a big loss."

Chen Xiao didn't say anything when he heard this, but looked at the person next to him.

The more this kind of thing happens, the more you should not be impatient.

When everyone knows that it is a useless piece of waste stone, you still buy it at a high price.

Even a fool can see that there must be something fishy going on.

As soon as the woman finished speaking, people around her started pointing and talking at her.

"I'm impressed. I'm really impressed. I was willing to spend 10 yuan to buy this piece of junk stone because I felt sorry for you two. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but you even complain that the price is too low."

"Dude, forget about 10 yuan, even 1 cents is too much for me. There's no need to help people like this. Just let them fend for themselves."

"People are kind enough to help you, but not only do you not appreciate it, you're even planning to sell it for a high price and rip them off. You're really heartless!"

......

Everyone was talking at once, making the woman blush.

The man beside him sighed upon seeing this.

"Wife, I know I was wrong. I will change and I will never touch a stone again."

"Hey...wife, I think I should just sell it to him for 10 yuan."

"It's useless for us to keep it. Do you want me to touch the gambling stone again?"

Gambling on stones is like gambling, there are only 0 times and countless times.

Either you become rich and powerful and reach the pinnacle of life, or you become homeless and wander the streets with your wife and children broken up.

The woman hesitated.

But she still wanted to sell it for 50 yuan.

Because 10 yuan is really too low.

"One last question for you. Will you sell it for 10 yuan? If not, I'm leaving."

"I didn't buy this broken rock to gamble on finding jade."

"But because I feel sorry for you two, I'm going to spend 10 yuan to buy it."

"Besides me, who else in the whole Liulichang is willing to spend 10 yuan to buy a piece of broken stone?"

As he spoke, Chen Xiao pushed his bicycle and prepared to leave.

Chen Xiao is not afraid that the stone will be snatched away by others.

10 yuan is not a small amount of money. Apart from him, I guess no one in the entire Liulichang is willing to spend 10 yuan to buy a piece of broken stone.

"Brother, make way."

Chen Xiao pushed his bicycle out of the crowd.

Just when she was about to squeeze out of the crowd, the woman gritted her teeth and called out to Chen Xiao.

"Wait, don't leave yet. I'll sell it! Isn't it okay if I sell it?"

"You said 10 yuan for it, but it's just a broken stone. If you can't get jade out of it, don't bother me."

Chen Xiao stopped and turned around to force a smile at the woman.

"I'll tell you the same thing again."

Then Chen Xiao took out a big black ten from his pocket.

The woman handed the stone, which was the size of an ugly orange, to Chen Xiao.

The surface of the stone is as smooth as a pebble, no wonder others say there is no possibility of jade inside.

If Chen Xiao didn’t have golden eyes, he wouldn’t buy it even for ten cents, let alone ten dollars.

As soon as they got it, the onlookers around urged them to go to the store to open it and see if there was any jade inside.

Chen Xiao shook his head to indicate that it was unnecessary.

"Everyone, how could this kind of stone possibly produce jade? I only bought this stone out of pity for the couple."

Chen Xiao casually threw the stone into the bicycle frame and got on the 28-inch bicycle to go home.

......

the other side.

Jia Dongxu and his family had just paid the bill, and the staff were helping them put on the bicycle license plates and do the registration work.

"Dongxu, can you ride a bike?" Tingting asked.

At this time, Jia Dongxu was standing at the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative with his hands in his pockets.

He said arrogantly with a twist of his head.

"Is that even a question? I can definitely ride a bicycle."

"The old man at the factory had a bicycle. I'd ridden it before and even learned how to let go of the handlebars!"

"What is Dasabar?"

Tingting was a little unfamiliar with this word.

"Letting go means riding without holding the handlebars with both hands."

"..."

Tingting was speechless for a while.

she reminded.

"It feels quite dangerous. I'd better not do it so recklessly in the future."

At this time, the bicycle license plate had been installed and the staff pushed the bicycle out.

Jia Dongxu happily stepped on it.

He was not tall, and this 28-meter-long bicycle prevented him from having both feet on the ground at the same time.

He got on the bicycle, leaned sideways with one foot on the ground and spoke to Tingting.

"Tingting, hurry up and get in the back seat. I'll take you for a ride!"

"Okay!" Tingting grinned and sat on the back seat of the bicycle.

The moment I sat on it, I could see the bicycle falling down a little, and even the tire was a little flat.

After all, Tingting weighs 300 pounds.

"Mom, you walk home by yourself. I'll take Tingting back first."

After saying that, Jia Dongxu got on his bicycle.

Jia Zhang let out a long sigh.

She felt a little uncomfortable, forgetting her empty wallet.

She originally intended to use this money for her retirement.

Now, in order to buy a bicycle for Dongxu, she has almost no money left for her pension.

If Tingting and the others don't show filial piety to her in the future...

Jia Zhang didn't dare to think about what happened next.

She murmured.

"Dongxu is a filial child... He will take care of me until the end of my life..."

Jia Dongxu was so happy to have a bicycle.

In the entire courtyard, none of the three old men had a bicycle.

Chen Xiao and Jia Dongxu each have one.

Along the way, Jia Dongxu stood up from time to time and kicked his feet, and then performed various acrobatics.

This made Tingting in the back seat a little scared.

This is her first time riding a bicycle.

Seeing the ground beneath her feet constantly receding, she felt a little scared.

"Dongxu, ride slower. I'm a little scared."

"Don't be afraid, my cycling skills are real!"

Jia Dongxu drove all the way to the alley of the courtyard and still refused to brake.

At the gate of the courtyard, Chen Xiao was pushing his bicycle and chatting with the third uncle Yan Bugui.

"Good morning, Uncle San. Why didn't you go fishing this weekend?"

"I was hoping to eat the big carp you caught this weekend."
