Chapter 37 37. It’s time to consider buying a house
When Du Chuan rode a brand new 28-inch bar back to the compound, he really showed his face.
Nowadays, many families buy second-hand bicycles. Father Du’s bicycle is also second-hand. Even so, it is not cheap, but it does not require a ticket.
The Forever brand bicycle Du Chuan bought cost 150 yuan, which is almost more than three months’ salary of a worker.
Coupled with the industrial tickets, most people are really reluctant to buy them. After all, no one is rich now, so being able to buy a second-hand bicycle is already very good.
"Second brother, give me a ride." The third brother came over, and the fourth brother Du Bei also watched eagerly.
Of course Du Chuan would not treat this bicycle as a treasure, so he waved his hand and said: "Go ahead, just don't hit anyone."
Then the third and fourth sons began to compete for who would be the first. If one rides first, Du Chuan will ignore it and they will solve it themselves.
During dinner in the evening, people at home also asked about the car. Du Chuan randomly found an excuse to fool him, but Du Yuan looked at Du Chuan with a strange expression, but didn't say much.
Today he found out that his younger brother was so awesome at work that he could even point at the cadres and scold him.
He also made some inquiries about Du Chuan's situation, but not many people knew the real situation. Most of them were hearsay, and anyway, the information was miraculous.
Hearing this, Du Yuan thought that he was dazzled and that he had recognized the wrong person. He was not his brother.
"Is Du Chuan at home?" A figure stood at the door and asked.
The voice sounded familiar to Du Chuan. He turned around and found that Liang Gang had arrived. It seemed that there was something harvested from the antiques.
"Come in quickly, let's have some together." Du Chuan greeted.
Liang Gang said: "No, I've eaten what I brought over. You eat first. I'll wait for you outside just in time to eat."
He ignored Du Chuan and the others' invitation as he spoke. Just sit in the courtyard.
Du Chuan was helpless, so he finished his meal quickly, went outside, and threw a cigarette over. Liang Gang was not polite.
“We got some antiques over there. If you have time tomorrow, let’s go and have a look. Then we can buy them if they are suitable.” Liang Gang said.
These days, he basically goes to the scrap station as soon as he gets off work, just tinkering with antiques. Now he feels that he has gained a lot, so he came to inform Du Chuan.
Mainly because when he was at work, he looked for Du Chuan twice but failed to find him.
Firstly, there were too many people during lunch and it was difficult to find him, but when he got off work, he ran very fast and couldn't find Du Chuan.
He didn't know that Du Chuan got off work early now, so he came over after finishing his work at the scrap station.
Du Chuan was about to agree, but then he heard Liang Gang's stomach growling and knew that he hadn't eaten yet.
"Isn't it convenient for me to go there now? I might have something to do tomorrow and I won't be able to go there." Du Chuan randomly found a reason.
Liang Gang said: "It's nothing inconvenient. Uncle Gong's side is fine too."
"Okay, let's go there now." After saying that, he took Liang Gang on his bike and set off together. .
On the way, I saw a state-owned restaurant that was open, so I went in to pack two dishes and bought a bottle of wine.
"You can't go empty-handed. It's polite to bring something with you." Facing Du Chuan's reasons, Liang Gang just remained silent.
The scrap station is still some distance away from here. Du Chuan rode for more than half an hour to get there, while Liang Gang had to walk back and forth on his legs every day.
"Xiao Liang, why are you back again?" After entering the scrap station and knocking on the door of a room, an old man came out and was a little surprised to see Liang Gang. Liang Gang explained: "It's like this. My friend has something to do tomorrow, so I want to come over now and have a look."
Du Chuan smiled and said: "Uncle, my name is Du Chuan, I’m Liang Gang’s friend. I’m disturbing your rest at this late hour.”
Uncle Gong waved his hand and said, “Don’t bother me. I’m an old man and I’m fine. Come in.”
When Du Chuan placed the food and wine he bought on the table, a smile suddenly appeared on Uncle Gong's face, and he said, "Look, you're here as soon as you come. What else do you bring?"
Du Chuan said: "I didn't eat much, so I bought some food and brought it over."
However, they did not eat directly, but went to another room first to move some antiques accumulated during this period. They came over, and then they ate and drank while looking at the antiques.
"These are all good things. If they were placed in the prosperous times of ancient times, they would be worth a lot of money. It's a pity." Uncle Gong took a sip of wine and then said.
Du Chuan asked: "Uncle, do you know this?"
Uncle Gong said: "You know a little bit. I was an apprentice in the antique shop before and learned a little bit."
< br>
"The more you know, the more you can tell."
As he spoke, Uncle Gong got into his element, picked up a dirty-looking vase and started to introduce it.
"This looks like the porcelain of the Republic of China, and it is also Jiangxi porcelain. Look here..."
Listening to Uncle Gong's ramble on, Du Chuan and the others stared with big eyes. Eyes, they really don’t understand these things.
However, they did not disturb Uncle Gong's interest. It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, you can just be a supportive audience.
Soon Uncle Gong also discovered this, and smiled at himself and said: "Look, people talk more when they get older. Fortunately, Xiaoliang came over to talk to me in the past two years, so that I can relieve my boredom."
Du Chuan said with a smile: "Uncle, our knowledge of antiques is too shallow and we have no knowledge in this area. You are playing the piano to others."
< br>"Haha, you boy can talk." Uncle Gong pointed at Du Chuan and said with a smile.
The three of them were drinking wine, eating food, and looking at these antiques. None of them were very valuable antiques. No matter how good those antiques were, they basically appeared in shopping malls that specialized in buying and selling antiques. inside the store.
Of course, unless it was picked up, it is basically impossible from Du Chuan's perspective.
But even so, in a few decades, these antiques will still be worth a lot of money. It is not a problem to increase them hundreds of times, or even ten thousand times. After all, they are too cheap now.
"How much do these cost?" Du Chuan asked.
Uncle Gong thought for a while and said: "Some of them are from public accounts. It's not easy to give you a discount. You should pay a little more for each item than from public accounts, otherwise it will be difficult for me to do it."< br>
Du Chuan immediately said: "This is what it should be."
"As for the others, some people are still here and no one wants them, and some of them are pleasing to my eye. I spent a little money to keep it, you can just give it to me," Uncle Gong said casually.
Du Chuan responded immediately, "Well, let's settle the accounts later."
But then he thought that there seemed to be no room for it in his home. Now he can It is said to be full.
It seems that the house matter also needs to be brought forward, otherwise he will not have room to put these things. He just wants a house now. In addition to the unit allocation, he has to buy it with his own money, and the stock is very small, not much. Optional.
