Chapter 151 The old cow eats young grass
Back in the room, Li Jiayi quickly took off his clothes. There was nothing he could do, the room was too hot.
Wearing autumn clothes on the upper body and a pair of trousers on the lower body, he fell down on the bed to rest.
Who said you can’t get tired from running and playing outside every day?
Isn’t it like he is running outside every day? It’s so tiring! Not only is the body tired, but the mind and spirit are also tired.
After resting for about ten minutes, Li Jiayi came down from upstairs and picked up a large enamel jar to make a pot of tea.
Although Lingquan water is delicious, Lingquan water with Lingcha is even better.
Anyway, he already likes this spiritual tea and drinks it basically every day.
For him, this is a hundred times stronger than any juice.
"Brother, pour me some." The second sister came over with an enamel jar and said.
"Yeah!"
As soon as Li Jia picked up the large enamel jar, he filled it for her. This big jar could at least fill five or six small jars.
In the evening, after having a warm dinner with his family and taking a sauna, Li Jiayi went back to the house to sleep.
No words for a night.
After dinner the next morning, Li Jiayi ran out of the house as soon as his parents left.
The sky is not bad today, the sun is rising high.
The ground is covered with snow, and it would be better if there was no whistling breeze.
Although the sun is shining brightly, the small wind blowing on my face is like being cut with a knife.
No way, the imperial capital is like this. There are two winds throughout the year, one blowing from spring to autumn, and the other blowing from autumn to spring.
It's time to stop for a while, but unfortunately it only lasts for a few days, and then the next game starts.
Fortunately, the wind is not particularly strong today, otherwise it would not be a whirring sound, but the howling of ghosts and wolves.
That's right, it's the howling of ghosts and howling of wolves. The snow changes the terrain. When the wind blows, the sounds are different because of the different terrain.
In fact, it is the same as whistling.
Li Jiayi stopped the sled first, then took out his hood and put it on. He was not afraid of people recognizing him, but to keep warm.
With today's wind, if he didn't wear a hood, his face would probably be cracked by the time he got there.
Yes, Li Jiayi did not go to the military compound first because the agreed time was ten o'clock.
And it's not even eight o'clock yet, so it's useless for him to go there. If no one picks him up, he won't be able to get in at all.
So he just took this time to buy something.
Last time I went to a commission store, there were several good things in it, and there were also some very good watches.
Now that I have money in my hand, I am ready to take it.
Soon Li Jiayi drove the sleigh to the front door.
And that commission shop is right here, a commission firm covering a large area.
Stop the sled directly on the right side of the door. As soon as Li Jia took off his hood, he walked inside.
As for the sled, there is no need to worry at all. With Asheng and the three of them around, basically no one will dare to step forward.
Because the goal was clear, Li Jiayi did not hesitate and went straight to the goal.
First, he came to the place where watches were sold, pointed to the three watches inside and said, "I want these three watches."
Of these three watches, two are Patek Philippe and one is Vacheron Constantin.
These three watches are all old watches, but they are extremely well preserved.
There is not even a bump on it. As for scratches, they are basically slight friction during wearing.
This must have been brought back by people who went abroad in the past, and now they need money to sell it.
The most important thing is that the prices are not expensive. The most expensive one is a Patek Philippe, which costs 500 yuan.
The other Patek Philippe costs 400, but the Vacheron Constantin costs 430.
This is nothing to Li Jiayi, he won it directly by issuing a ticket.
As for bargaining, don’t even think about it. When buying things in a commissioned store, the price is set and there is no room for bargaining.
Take the ticket to pay, stamp it and come over to pick up the watch. It only takes about ten minutes.
Three of the world's top watches in later generations were in his hands. Even if he doesn't wear them, they can be used for collection!
Next, Li Jiayi came to the antiques again. Several of the things he liked last time were still there, but in fact the things here were not that easy to sell.
Especially antiques, who would spend money to buy them at this time! Eat and drink improperly.
Of course, commissioned stores also have hot-selling items, such as bicycles, sewing machines, and radios.
Watches are also in short demand, but only domestic watches are available. Mainly because domestic watches are cheap, and some people don’t understand foreign watches. The prices are so expensive. What if they are cheated?
Of course, some people think that the reason why foreign watches are so expensive is because when they are brought back from abroad, the real price is similar to domestic watches.
In this case, it is simply not cost-effective to spend five to six times, or even more.
"Invoice me for this bottle and this inkstone."
The bottle is a plum vase. Li Jiayi doesn't know the exact value, but it is very beautiful.
And the price set by the entrusting store is not low, it costs one hundred and twenty yuan. But since the entrusting store has set the price at one hundred and twenty yuan, it means that this plum vase is very good.
The inkstone is a bit cheaper, priced at eighty-five. These two antiques are actually less expensive than a watch.
This also left Li Jiayi speechless. He was sure that in fifty or sixty years, the value of these two antiques would definitely be much higher than the value of the watch. It's time to issue the invoice, pay, and then get the plum vase and inkstone.
Looking at the time, it was only half past eight, so Li Jiayi did not leave and started walking around the commission store again.
As for taking out a pocket watch to tell the time, he would definitely not know how to do it elsewhere, but this is a commission store!
Moreover, he just bought three foreign watches and two antiques here. It is unusual to have a pocket watch.
The place was very big. Since there was no target, he wandered around blindly and soon came to the place where radios were sold.
It’s a pity that there are only a few old-looking radios.
But that’s right, this thing is in short supply! Many commission shops don’t even see the shabby ones.
With just one glance, Li Jiayi left here and went to the next place.
The next place was a place selling bicycles. Li Jia took a look and saw that there were actually a few bicycles.
To his surprise, there was a new bicycle inside.
That’s right, it’s a new bicycle. Look at the wheels, I haven’t even ridden it.
“Hello, how do you sell this bicycle?” Li Jiayi asked, pointing to the new bicycle.
“Two hundred and two.”
"Two hundred and two?" Li Jiayi looked at the salesperson in surprise.
“Yes, this is a new bicycle.”
“Sister, this saleswoman, how can a new bicycle be sold here, and there is a steel stamp on it.”
< br>"Who told you that if the steel seal is broken, the bicycle is no longer new?"
Li Jiayi was speechless. If the steel seal is broken, it means that it has been sold, and the sold one is old.
Just like buying a car in later generations, even if it has not yet been registered, as long as you pay the money and drive the car out of the 4S store, it is a second-hand car.
If you want to sell it, don’t even think about it without losing tens of thousands of yuan, or even more.
"I just bought this car, and then it snowed heavily. I have never ridden it. Now I need money, so I sold it."
"It is also an old car! At least it is A second-hand car, is this a Phoenix? A new car only costs 180 yuan, but it costs 220 yuan.”
“You kid, you don’t need a ticket to buy a bicycle!”
Does Li Jiayi know this? Although there is no specific price for bicycle tickets, Pigeon Market is valuable!
If you include the value of the ticket, the price is indeed not expensive, but don’t forget that those who are willing to buy a new bicycle will still be short of a few dozen yuan.
It doesn’t sound good if you say it out loud! One is second-hand, even if it is new, it is second-hand.
One is brand new, and it will be more honorable to tell it.
Only those who are short of money will buy second-hand bicycles, but it is basically impossible for such a person to spend more than two hundred yuan on it.
So despite the fact that this is a new bike, it is not easy to sell.
Rather than saying that Li Jiayi was browsing in the store, it would be better to say that he was taking advantage of the wind here, or killing time.
It wasn’t until half past nine that Li Jiayi came out of the commission store and then drove the sleigh to the military compound.
In about ten minutes, he arrived not far from the military compound. Because he wanted to enter the compound, he put the sled and Asheng into the space.
Li Jiayi was standing on the curb opposite the compound, holding several large oil paper bags in his hands, and his schoolbags were also full of stuff.
After only a few minutes, he saw a tall old man coming out.
Who else could it be if he wasn’t Lao Li?
When several soldiers on guard saw him, they quickly stood at attention and saluted, and Lao Li also returned the salute.
Then he saw Li Jiayi standing opposite and waved to him.
After Li Jiayi came over, Lao Li said to the guard: "This is my relative who came to see me."
"Okay, chief."
"Let's go!" Lao Li turned to Li Jiayi and said.
Originally he thought he wanted to check, but he didn't expect it.
Actually, he was overthinking it. If he were an adult, he would check the things he brought when he saw them, but he is just a little kid.
Also, Lao Li said he was a relative of his, so what’s the problem? If they don’t believe Li Jiayi, how can they not believe Lao Li.
The houses in this compound are all two-story buildings, which should be the so-called general buildings.
You can't see much from the outside, but after you come in, you find that there are quite a lot of houses here.
There are five or six houses in a row, with more than ten rows, and Lao Li's house is slightly further back.
The two people soon arrived at the door of Lao Li's house. At this time, a particularly beautiful middle-aged woman came out of the house.
The middle-aged woman glanced at Lao Li and said, "Is this the kid you are talking about?"
"Yes!" Lao Li nodded.
"Hello, aunt!"
"Hello."
Li Jiayi turned his head and looked at Lao Li and said: "Didn't you say you got married late? My daughter Is it too late at this age?”
“What the hell is that look like in your eyes?”
"What! I said, Lao Li, you are an old cow eating young grass!"
