Chapter 156 The leak was successfully picked up (please subscribe)
Chen Jie nodded vigorously, and then said: "I will protect myself and will not let him bully me."
Hearing her say this, Jiang Ruo'an felt a little relieved.
She hates seeing men do domestic violence against women. This is a sign of incompetence.
As long as a woman dares to resist and fight, the domestically violent man will become a coward.
If you don't resist, there is nothing you can do.
It is difficult to change by relying on others.
"You two, come in and have a cup of hot tea. I'll make tea for you."
"It may take a while to find those things, not so fast." With that said, Chen Jie took the initiative to pull Jiang Ruo'an towards the yard.
Xu Ye took the initiative to walk in, and Jiang Ruo'an took a step forward and walked in together.
Because Liu Futong used to be a driver in a commune, his family was originally quite wealthy.
Therefore, the Liu family has a hot water kettle.
Today's hot water kettles are not cheap, costing more than five yuan each.
Ordinary farmers don’t have this kind of thing in their homes.
"You can sit wherever you like. The house is a bit messy, so don't mind." Chen Jie said, and then went to get tea leaves to make tea for Xu Ye and Jiang Ruo'an.
"Captain Xu, come in and see if it's this book. I don't know many words." Liu Futong stood at the door and shouted.
His main purpose was to let Xu Ye enter the fifth house and let Xu Ye see if there was anything else he wanted.
After all, his brother Liu Futong used to be very fashionable and bought a lot of fashionable things.
Xu Ye didn't think much and walked over directly.
As soon as he entered the house, Xu Ye saw a gramophone.
"You actually have this at home?" Xu Ye couldn't help but stepped forward.
"Yes, my brother took it from someone else before his accident, but it was broken and couldn't play the song."
"My brother likes to buy some worthless junk and wants to repair it in a whimsical way."
"Can you try it?" Xu Ye couldn't help but ask.
He had wanted to buy it before. If it could be repaired and it was cheap, Xu Ye would really like to buy it.
Mainly because he saw some vinyl records and was tempted.
"Of course!" Liu Futong grinned.
Didn't he call Xu Ye in just to make Xu Ye fall in love with these things and be taken advantage of?
Xu Ye took a look and found that it was still an imported product, an old American Puppy brand hand-cranked phonograph.
Xu Ye checked and found that the diaphragm and stylus were normal, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he turned the crank and quickly discovered the problem.
There is a problem with the spring, or there is a problem with the internal rotation mechanism, and there is no way to drive the turntable to rotate.
Unfortunately, there is no way to take it apart and check it directly.
"It's really bad. What a pity." Xu Ye sighed with emotion.
Then, he flipped through the vinyl record next to him.
There are a lot of them, fifty or sixty, and many of them are singers from the Ming Dynasty.
Songs like Baiguang, Baihong, Zhou Xuan, Li Lihua, etc. are all classic songs.
There were also some people from the Soviet Union that Xu Ye didn't know very well.
What surprised him was that there were also some Americans.
It can be said that it is quite rich and diverse, and the quality is very good, which makes Xu Ye very tempted.
If nothing else, these vinyl records are worth buying.
"How about it? Is there anyone you like, Captain Xu?"
"If the price is right, I will sell it." Liu Futong asked eagerly.
Generally speaking, these kinds of music are all "excessive sounds" and are not suitable for playing in large groups.
"The machines are broken, and I don't know if these records can be played. It's useless for me to buy them back." Xu Ye said calmly.
After all, he couldn't let the other party see that he liked these records.
Seeing that Xu Ye was not interested, Liu Futong felt disappointed.
After all, it’s not easy to find someone to take advantage of!
"What about this?" Liu Futong pulled something out directly.
Xu Ye took a look, what a good guy, it turned out to be a small motor.
There is no doubt that this thing is broken.
Liu Futong also said just now that his brother likes to buy some ‘junk’.
To put it bluntly, I just want to find the leak and see if I can repair it.
If it can be repaired, it will be profitable.
"It's okay to use this as scrap metal. I'll take it for just one yuan." Xu Ye gave a quotation.
This motor is not ready to be repaired. It might be possible to replace it with an electric fan or an electric drill.
"Okay, just one piece. It's useless anyway. It's really just scrap metal." Liu Futong said happily.
"There is another treasure, which is in this wooden box." As he said that, Liu Futong walked to a wooden box and opened it directly.
After taking a look, Xu Ye's eyes lit up.
"Isn't this a generator for showing movies?"
"Is it bad?" After saying that, Xu Ye carefully checked the nameplate.
"3000 rpm, 1000 watts, it's still okay."
"Didn't your brother send him to be repaired?" As he said that, Xu Ye looked away.
If it can be repaired, electricity can be used.
"My brother wants to practice it himself, but he has done it many times. Unfortunately, he overestimates himself." Liu Futong couldn't help complaining.
Xu Ye nodded. Drivers at this time really knew how to repair cars, because there was a maintenance test during the certification exam.
After all, if there is a problem with the car, the driver needs to repair it himself, so you must be able to repair cars to become a driver.
Liu Futong didn't fix it yet, and Xu Ye felt that it wouldn't be easy for him to fix it either.
However, he was still willing to buy it back and give it a try. "You give me a price, and if it's right, I'll take it back and use it as scrap metal."
"You'd better give me the bike's certificate and invoice to confirm. If there's no problem, I'll buy the bike first." Xu Ye said very simply.
Seeing that Xu Ye was not very interested, Liu Futong suddenly became anxious.
"How about this for 20 yuan?" He directly gave a price.
To him, these are just scrap metal and have little meaning.
His parents were reluctant to sell it before, saying that his eldest brother was keeping it as a thought.
But after Liu Futong lost money recently, he successfully convinced his parents.
If it rains one day, use a cart to take it to the commune's purchasing station to see how much it can sell for.
He knew very well that the prices offered by the purchasing stations were very low and they were all treated as garbage.
If Xu Ye is willing to buy it, it will definitely be more than what the buying station will give.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"You'll sell me a pile of scrap metal for 20?"
"You really think I was taken advantage of. Even 8 yuan for this thing is too much for me." Xu Ye curled his lips and did not fall for Liu Futong's deception.
"You can sell it for eight yuan, you can sell it for eight yuan." Liu Futong said with a smile.
"Seven yuan is the most, eight yuan is not enough." Xu Ye continued to lower the price.
"Okay, seven yuan is seven yuan." Liu Futong said cheerfully.
Including the 92 yuan from selling the car, it’s already 100 yuan.
One hundred yuan is definitely a huge sum of money!
Thinking of this, Liu Futong quickly handed the documents and invoices he found to Xu Ye.
Xu Ye took a look and after making sure there was no problem, he took out his agreement and signed it.
"Daughter-in-law, come in and take a look at this agreement." Liu Futong shouted, because his vocabulary was limited and not as good as Chen Jie's.
Chen Jie didn't waste any time and hurriedly came in to read the agreement and read it out to Liu Futong.
After listening, Liu Futong signed his name after confirming that there was no problem.
"Captain Xu, don't you want this phonograph? I'll sell it to you at a cheaper price." Liu Futong pointed at the gramophone and said.
"Then you can give me a reliable price. If it's too expensive, I won't want it. There's a high probability that this thing can't be repaired."
Liu Futong thought for a moment, and then said: "Six yuan, just give me six yuan, and you will be lucky."
Xu Ye weighed it and nodded after a few seconds: "Okay, just 6 yuan, together with the records and the machine."
With that said, Xu Ye took out some money from his pocket, counted 106 and handed it to Liu Futong.
Liu Futong happily took the money and counted it. After making sure it was correct, he put it into his pocket.
Xu Ye asked Jiang Ruoan to ride a bicycle to the brigade headquarters, and then someone came with a donkey cart.
Xu Ye picked up a pile of good 'garbage' from Liu Futong's house, loaded it on a donkey cart, and took it directly back to his home.
After arriving home, Xu Ye moved his things into his studio.
Then, he immediately took apart the gramophone.
After taking it apart, Xu Ye found that its winding gear had fallen off.
In addition, the mainspring is installed in the wrong direction, causing the mainspring to fail to wind normally.
Fortunately the spring didn't explode or break.
After reinstalling the clockwork, Xu Ye checked another roll.
The switch that controls the dial is also broken, rusty and broken.
This was easy to repair. Xu Ye just dismantled the entire switch and forged the accessories himself.
He fixed the spring, installed the barrel back, and retightened the screws to secure it.
Jiang Ruyue and Jiang Ruo'an were watching from the side. They didn't even cook dinner and threw it directly to Li Qing.
Because they all wanted Xu Ye to repair the gramophone and listen to the songs on those records.
Li Qing actually wanted to join in the fun and ride a bicycle.
She really didn't expect that Xu Ye would buy a bicycle.
Although it is second-hand, it is not cheap.
If you have one in the countryside, everyone will be envious.
However, she needed to cook dinner, and it was getting dark.
If you want to ride, you can only do it after dinner.
She has to rush to school early tomorrow morning, so she will definitely have no time to study.
After she put down the rice and cut the vegetables, she ran to the door of Xu Ye's studio and took a look.
"How's it going? Can it be repaired?" Jiang Ruo'an asked curiously when he saw Xu Ye taking things apart and putting them back together.
"It's almost repaired, and the only remaining problem is the switch."
"You can play it now." As he said that, Xu Ye took out a record and put it on the turntable.
Then move the stylus to the record, then use a hook to reach into the switch position and hook the switch inside.
The turntable slowly rotated and made a "sizzling" sound.
Then, the sound of melody came from the speakers.
Everyone's eyes lit up and they were very happy.
"When spring comes, the windows are full of green, and the big girl is showing off her mandarin ducks under the window. Suddenly, a ruthless blow hits the mandarin ducks, each of them is beaten..."
Xu Ye felt that the speed was obviously slower, and it sounded very awkward.
Xu Ye moved the speed control plate and increased the speed.
Then, it sounded much more normal.
It can be said that this gramophone was worth buying and it was successfully picked up.
Now, Xu Ye was curious about whether the gasoline generator could be used.
If it can be repaired, this wave will really make a lot of money.
