Quick, female general, I traveled through time to save my father

Chapter 33 Fake Jin's sister makes a living by collecting scrap 11

After the transaction was completed, Old Liu smiled and started chatting with Si Rong and the others: "Friend Si, now may I ask how you got this piece of jade? Was it a family heirloom or some kind of chance?"

Sirong didn't mean to hide it: "To be honest, I found it when I was collecting waste."

After hearing Sirong's words, Old Liu's smile looked like he was in pain.

He pointed at Sirong for a long time without saying anything, but after thinking about it, he was convinced. This was someone else's opportunity, and you can't ask them to sell it at a low price just because they found a big bargain.

"Okay, you have some luck, girl. If you come across anything good, show it to me right away."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Liu." Sirong agreed with a smile.

"Go away, you were Mr. Liu just now, but now you're acting like a big shot." The old man put his hands behind his back and walked into the store without looking back.

Si's mother tugged at Sirong's clothes and said, "Xiaorong, is that Boss Liu angry?"

"It's okay. Maybe he's not happy because he only got 2,000 yuan." Si Rong comforted Si's mother, and the two of them went home.

I won’t go to collect waste in the afternoon. I have to tell Si’s father the news first, and then make a good meal as a family to celebrate in the evening.

After learning about the jade sale, Mr. Si, like Mrs. Si, was shocked and confused.

It has only been a few days since my daughter started collecting waste, and before that she said she wanted to buy a house and open a waste collection station.

I have always been very worried, mainly because there is not much savings at home.

Without savings, I have no confidence to let my children suffer. Now I can finally put my worries to rest.

Even if I lose money, it's still windfall from selling this stone. I'll just pretend I didn't pick it up.

When Zhang Qi and Si Haoyu came back, they learned that the jade had been sold. They were so happy that they couldn't help but have a happy dinner with the whole family.

During this period, Si Rong also gave Zhang Qi and Si Haoyu an ideological education class, fearing that they would be too ambitious and want to make a fortune from jade.

You have to know that the main credit for the discovery of jade this time goes to the intelligent brain.

The two children are not mentally mature enough yet. If they think it is easy to make money this way and don’t want to go to school well, it will be troublesome.

Mr. and Mrs. Si also agreed, this was also their idea.

On Thursday, Sirong and her daughter went out to collect waste as usual during the day, and went to pick up Zhang Qi after school in the afternoon, and asked for leave from the class teacher.

The next day, Friday, except for Si Haoyu who went to school as usual, everyone else in the Si family accompanied Zhang Qi to the household registration office.

Sirong took Si's father on a tricycle, while Si's mother took Zhang Qi on a bicycle.

It was originally quite troublesome for Mr. Si to travel, but after the family got a tricycle, it became much more convenient.

Besides, this is an important day, and Si's father really wants to be there as well.

After the others arrived, the three members of the Zhang family also arrived, and the formalities went smoothly. Si Xuan saw that Si's father and mother were not uncomfortable at all, and were still as close as before.

While the adults were chatting, the two little ones were exchanging news about the changes in each other's lives. Occasionally, you could hear them covering their mouths and laughing. It was quite harmonious.

With the money from selling the Hetian jade, Sirong successfully bought Uncle Li's house.

After receiving their factory compensation, Uncle Li and Aunt Li decided to venture south to try their luck. After all, it was at the forefront of China's reforms, and there were many opportunities there.

The compensation was indeed not much. The combined length of service of Mr. and Mrs. Si was more than 40 years, yet they were only given 50,000 yuan in total.

When the money was distributed, the previous factory manager was also there. He was less than 50 years old, but most of his hair had turned white in the past six months. He explained to everyone for a long time that the general trend was here and he had no way to reverse it.

The factory's difficulties were all there, and no one had the energy to cause trouble anymore. Everyone was thinking about the future.

If Sirong hadn't set up this scrap yard, the Si family would probably have had to do what happened in their previous life, with their children going away to work.

In her previous life, after Sirong went to the south, Si's mother went to work in a private sweater factory, operating machines to knit sweaters and getting paid by piecework.

The conditions in the factory are particularly bad. It’s okay in the summer, but in the winter it’s drafty.

Because she had to work with wool, she couldn't wear gloves, which resulted in severe rheumatism in all ten of Si's fingers.

Every time it is cloudy or rainy, it becomes extremely painful and severely deformed.

After the two courtyards were connected, the ground was simply treated and the backyard gate was expanded a lot.

The scrap yard was opened for business, and the superior buyers also found out everything during this period.

They are not like scrap yards like theirs, which accept whatever they can get.

Those who collect iron only collect iron, those who collect aluminum only collect aluminum. There are also those who collect plastics.

The purchase price is slightly higher than that of ordinary scrap yards.

In other words, scrap stations like Sirong and her colleagues collect the items, sort them, and send them to various places to earn the difference, forming an industrial chain.

During the day, Si's father stayed at home to guard the scrap station, while Sirong and her mother went out to collect the scrap.

Sometimes, Sirong would let Si's mother stay at home and take Si's father out.

After the family had an income, they bought another bicycle. Sirong usually rode a tricycle, and Si's mother rode a bicycle herself.

If I take Si's father out, I will let him sit on the tricycle and Sirong will pull him.

In the past two years, Si's father's spirits have improved a lot. In addition to cooking at home, he also helps sort the waste collected by my mother and I. Although he is a little tired physically, he no longer feels like a useless person.

A landline phone was installed at home, and Sirong also bought a pager for Si's mother to wear. There are public telephones everywhere on the streets now, so it is very convenient to call a pager if something happens.

When Si Haoyu was in his third year of high school, Si Rong received another good thing.

That day, the mother and daughter happened to see a family moving, and they had a lot of things they didn't want to keep anymore, so they called them to their house and agreed that they wouldn't take any money for the waste, but they had to help clean up all the discarded things before leaving.

Sirong turned on the intelligent brain's detection mode and began to scan objects.

The Liberation Daily published for only four days. Its headline featured the nation's "Eight Articles of Law for the People of the Nation" to reassure the public. Four days later, the newspaper's personnel and assets were merged with the Xinhua News Agency, and the Liberation Daily was renamed the Xinhua News Agency.

【Estimated value】20,000.

Sirong searched the house for a long time before she found the newspaper.

It was an ancient scroll, wrapped in the newspaper that the intelligent computer mentioned.

As soon as Sirong reached out her hand, the hostess of that house called out to her, "This isn't for sale. We want to take it away."

As he spoke, he picked up the scroll and talked to Sirong, saying that it was an old item left by her mother-in-law's father.
