5. [Gold inlaid with jade]
"Want to block me? Next life. ”
At more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Xiaofan pressed the sunhat on his head and walked out of the back door of a shop in the antique city.
After passing through a few small alleys, Su Xiaofan came to a vegetable market in a residential area, bought half a catty of meat, an old hen and a few kinds of green vegetables, thought about it and weighed half a catty of chicken feet that little sister loves to eat, and then carried it back to the place where he lived.
The consumption in Luochuan City is not very high, Su Xiaofan's rented place is not far from the antique city and the high school where the little sister studied, it is a house built in the old city in the eighties of the last century, the old one is older than Su Xiaofan, the rent is naturally not expensive, two bedrooms and one living room are only 900 yuan a month, and the electrical appliances and furniture in it are complete, although her sister comes back to live for one day a week, Su Xiaofan still left Xiangyang's room to her sister.
It costs five yuan to kill a chicken in the vegetable market, Su Xiaofan was not reluctant, boiled a pot of boiling water, Su Xiaofan is very skilled in killing chickens and removing feathers, and cleaned up the chicken in a few minutes, and then sat on the pot and put in the seasoning and stewed on the chicken soup, basically Su Xiaofan will make such a meal for his sister every week, in his words, it is that there is all the nutrition in the chicken soup, and the chicken is torn open and mixed with ginger soy sauce and vinegar, which can satisfy cravings, just used to comfort the little sister.
Turning on the fire of another stove, Su Xiaofan fried shredded meat and garlic sprouts again, slapped a cucumber salad, turned off the chicken soup on low heat, and then returned to the living room to turn on the fan to cool down, and looked at the time, it is estimated that the little sister will have to wait for half an hour to get home, and it will be just enough to start the meal.
"The number you are calling is not in the service area, please call again later."
Listening to the voice of the telecom lady from the mobile phone, Su Xiaofan hung up the phone helplessly, he had to call his father several times a day during this time, but he didn't know which ocean his father drove the ship into at this time, and he always couldn't get through, but it was common for there to be no signal on the sea, Su Xiaofan was not worried about his father's safety, but he was a little worried about his sister's tuition.
Although he earned 8,000 yuan from the surname Wu by playing the edge ball, but now Su Xiaofan only has 85,000 yuan on hand, and there is still 15,000 yuan short of 100,000, and according to Su Xiaofan's idea, in addition to tuition, at least prepare 10,000 or 20,000 yuan for his sister in case of emergency.
"There's nothing of value in this house anymore." Su Xiaofan looked in the living room a little depressed, but except for some molds for making bronzes, there were no other objects.
"By the way, I don't know if this thing is worth anything?"
Su Xiaofan suddenly untied his neckline and pulled out a pendant worn with a gold chain from his neck, this pendant is oval, dark throughout, and there is an irregular hole in the middle, which is just enough to pass through the gold chain, the whole pendant looks very inconspicuous, if it is thrown on the ground, it is estimated that only those who pick up the rags will pick it up as a scrap copper and rotten iron.
According to my father, my father got this thing by accident when he was going abroad a few years ago.
At that time, Su Weixuan's cruise ship was passing through the Bermuda Sea, just encountered a cruise ship that was about to sink unintentionally, and naturally could not see death without saving this kind of thing, under the command of Su Weixuan, more than 500 people on the cruise ship were rescued, and this pendant was rescued by one of the guests who was rescued in order to thank the captain, and specially gave it to Su Weixuan as a gift.
The guest was a very famous meteorite collector with a lot of money, but he fled from the cruise ship at that time and couldn't bring anything down, so he gave Su Weixuan the pendant around his neck.
According to the guest, this pendant was obtained from a desert thirty years ago when he was chasing a meteorite rain that landed on the earth, and it is strange to say that the man saw a meteorite the size of a basketball on the sand, but as soon as he touched it with his hand, the whole meteorite was sandy, and it became a particle finer than the sand and scattered, and in the middle of the meteorite, it was such an object.
After the meteorite collector brought back this small piece of meteorite, he also did various tests, but no matter how he analyzed it, he could not detect the properties of this meteorite, and he could not even determine whether it was metal.
Although this thing is not very good-looking, but thinking of it is not easy to come by, the collector used a rope to wear it and hang it around his neck, this hanging is decades, if it was not for the fact that he was rescued by Su Weixuan at that time and had nothing else, the collector may not be willing to give this thing away.
Su Weixuan didn't care much about the thing, and threw it directly to his son after returning home, Su Xiaofan felt that it was fashionable to hang a pendant around his neck, so he kept hanging it, and now he was short of money in his hand, so he couldn't help but have the idea of this thing.
"This thing is said to be a meteorite, I'm afraid no one believes it, Dad was fooled nine times out of ten." Playing with the pendant in his hand, Su Xiaofan smiled bitterly, this thing is not gold or iron, and it has nothing to do with stones, he also once looked for someone to show it in the antique city, and what others gave was the evaluation of the four words "scrap copper and rotten iron".
"Forget it, it's really not good, let's open my mouth to Brother Gang in a few days." Su Xiaofan hung the pendant back around his neck, and the little sister's tuition fee was not completely imaginable, with his friendship with Zheng Dagang, it would definitely be no problem to borrow tens of thousands of yuan for a year and a half, but Su Xiaofan was used to being independent, and he was still unwilling to ask others for help unless he had to.
"Xiaofan, Su Xiaofan, I'm back!" A crisp shout interrupted Su Xiaofan's thinking, and then the door of the house was opened from the outside, and a girl about one meter seven tall rushed towards Su Xiaofan in a hurry.
"Call brother, it's not big or small." Su Xiaofan pushed his sister aside, and said angrily: "How old are you, you are still jumping and jumping when you walk, you are crazy, what should you do if you can't get married in the future." ”
"Hmph, there are a lot of people chasing me at school, and someone writes me love letters every day, how can this girl not get married." Su Xiaoxiao smiled, shrugged her nose, ran straight to the kitchen, and shouted: "The school cafeteria is really too unpalatable, it's better for my brother, I count on going home every week to replenish my blood." ”
"Who doesn't chase you so long? I'm telling you, you have to study hard and don't use your crooked brains. Su Xiaofan had a hard mouth, but he chuckled in his heart, his father is not here, he has to take a good look at his sister, and he must not fall in love early.
"I know, this girl doesn't look down on those little hairy children." Su Xiaoxiao snorted and moved to lift the lid of the pot.
Not to mention, although there is no positive shape, Su Xiaoxiao looks very beautiful, not to mention the height of one meter seven, and the body shape has completely grown, a goose egg face and willow eyebrows, bright big eyes, and a straight nose bridge, similar to Su Xiaofan by five or six points, speaking of the Su family's genes is really good, if the two brothers and sisters go to the street together, it will definitely be a scenery on the street.
Su Xiaofan sighed, her sister is good at everything, but since she was a child, she has followed herself in the countryside to dig bird eggs, go down to the river to touch loaches, and her temperament is a little wilder, and ordinary men probably can't stop her.
"The chicken soup is just right, don't burn it, I haven't adjusted the shredded chicken yet, what are you anxious about." Su Xiaofan followed behind and slapped his sister on the head, "You foodie, it's good to use the motivation to eat on your studies." ”
Although Su Xiaoxiao's study is not bad, he is above average in the class, he is not a top student, and he is much worse than Su Xiaofan, so that Su Weixuan feels sorry for his son, with Su Xiaofan's grades, it must be no problem to repeat the year and take the top university, but Su Xiaofan has had a very correct idea since he was a child, and the things he decided, even if Su Weixuan, who is a father, cannot change it.
"Hehe, this girl is lucky, she can enter a prestigious school without studying." Su Xiaoxiao shrank her head, but then frowned, and said: "Brother, 100,000 a year, this tuition fee is too expensive, otherwise I would still take the college entrance examination normally, with my current results, it is no problem to take a one." ”
Su Xiaoxiao knows the situation at home, her father is not very reliable, she is on an ocean ship all day long, sometimes she can't see each other for a year or two, she can read until the third year of high school safely, it is all the credit of her grandfather and brother, after her grandfather died a few years ago, Su Xiaoxiao has always been dependent on her brother, and she still knows something about her family.
"You don't have to worry about tuition, I've prepared 100,000 yuan for you."
Su Xiaofan pulled away his sister, fished the chicken out of the pot and put it on the plate, and gave a bowl of chicken soup to his sister, saying: "My business is okay now, it's no problem to save 70,000 or 80,000 a year, plus there is also our father, he earns US dollars, I estimate that my father must have at least 1.8 million in his hands, and if he doesn't give it to us, he is afraid that we will spend it indiscriminately." ”
Although my father didn't say anything about his income, but now that the information is so developed, Su Xiaofan used his mobile phone to check the Internet and knew that the first mate of the ocean-going ship could earn two or three hundred thousand yuan a year, and his father had been a captain for several years, and Su Xiaofan thought less about his millions of net worth.
"Then, then I'll go first, if my dad doesn't have any money, I won't read it." Su Xiaoxiao was also a little reluctant to take this opportunity, helped Su Xiaofan bring the dishes to the table, and said: "My school is the only one who was admitted, and the old class said that the school seems to give a bonus, I don't know how much money I can give." ”
"You're the only one in your school? That's not right, what are you doing in the exam, and your grades are not very outstanding in the class. Su Xiaofan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he was happy to patronize it last time, and he didn't ask in detail.
"I took the exam in language, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry and politics, and I heard that even the first and second years of high school were also examined, and your sister and I are very good, so I was admitted to one." Su Xiaoxiao has always had a big heart, and she never thinks much about things she doesn't understand, so she lives happily every day.
"That's not right, Xiaoxiao, tell me what else you took the test?" Su Xiaofan is different from his sister, he has been in the antique market for two years, and he naturally understands a truth, that is, how low the probability of accidental events is.
Just like those old gentlemen who wander around the antique market all day long, they all come with the psychology of Taobao picking up leaks, but Su Xiaofan has been trading in the antique market for two years, and he has never really seen anyone pick up a big leak, and more of them are some "legends" deliberately passed out in private by these stalls, which are used to improve the enthusiasm of those old men to "pick up leaks".
