"Little comrade, what kind of work do you do?" Lao Li asked. Now that the two sides have become the main customer, Lao Li has improved Zhang Shanhai's status a little.

"They all work in the unit." Zhang Shanhai said.

Lao Li is not surprised, these days, there are really not many people in the city who don't go to work.

"What unit do you work in?" Lao Li asked again.

"My dad is at the railroad bureau, and my mom is at the CDC." Zhang Shanhai said.

"It's all about leadership, right?" Lao Li asked.

Zhang Shanhai shook his head, "I don't know." ”

In fact, the salary of a leader is not much higher, and the length of service is the most critical factor in determining the level of salary at this time.

"Are you busy? If you're busy, I'll give you the money first, don't worry, my mother will definitely agree. Zhang Shanhai said.

"It's okay, I took a leave of absence this morning anyway. We don't dare to ask for your money until your adults come back. Who knows if you stole it from your adult? Lao Li said with a smile.

After waiting for a while, He Ni returned home.

"Shanhai, you didn't go to school today?" He Ni opened the door and said, even more surprised to see Lao Li and the others, "Three comrades, is there something wrong with my son?" ”

"No, no, your son wants to buy some antiques that we just got back from the Cultural Relics Bureau, and the money is a bit much, and we don't know if you parents know about it. So I didn't dare to trade with him, so I had to ask your parents what they meant. Lao Li stood up and said.

"How much?" He Ni looked at it and asked.

Lao Li hurriedly said, "The three of us have a total of 900 yuan in total, what do you think?" If you think it's expensive, the price is negotiable. ”

"Shanhai, what are you buying these antiques for?" He Ni asked.

"It looks good, buy it and collect it." Zhang Shanhai said with a smile.

He Ni frowned, although Zhang Shanhai was a little disobedient, but he never did anything loss-making, since he decided to buy it, he must only make money, not lose. Although He Ni can't understand it, she is still very confident in Zhang Shanhai.

"Since my son likes it, let's buy it." He Ni said.

Lao Li glanced at He Ni, he didn't say anything, but he was saying in his heart, sure enough, she was a loving mother who had many defeated children since ancient times, and she spoiled her son so much, no wonder she didn't ask if she skipped class.

The price Zhang Shanhai has already negotiated, and He Ni is embarrassed to say it, it is really a little heartache so much money, and before it is heated at home, he took out a large handful.

After Lao Li and the others left, He Ni grabbed Zhang Shanhai and asked, "Stinky boy, what are you buying so many antiques for?" It's not that you don't know that antiques can't be sold with the sale now, you save so much, and you can't eat it, what's the use? ”

"Mom, you don't understand, gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times. Now that society is getting more and more progressive, and it is getting closer and closer to the prosperous era, sooner or later, these antiques will be worth more than gold. That's when you know how wise your son's decision is. Simply, you help me take a few more days off, and I will go to the gate of the Cultural Relics Bureau and buy all the antiques that others want to sell. Zhang Shanhai said.

He Ni knocked Zhang Shanhai's head, "Don't even think about it, you hurry up and solve the matter of Uncle Wu's house, and then honestly go back to school for me, I will be admitted to high school soon, if you drop the chain for me, I will have to beat you up." ”

Zhang Shanhai touched his head helplessly, but there was no way. Soon, however, he left the antiques behind him.

The reason why Zhang Shanhai took a fancy to these antiques was that he took a fancy to some of the bronzes in these antiques. There was a bronze mirror that caught Zhang Shanhai's attention. From the texture on the bronze mirror, Zhang Shanhai can know that this bronze mirror is a feng shui copper mirror used by the ancients to hang at the door to resist evil spirits, and the Wu family can just use it, but Zhang Shanhai still needs to make some articles on the copper mirror. This bronze mirror has been dusty for a long time, and if you want to continue to play its role, you must first give it light.

This bronze mirror alone could not completely solve the problem, Zhang Shanhai decided to go out in the afternoon to buy some jade, which was used to match the feng shui copper mirror and arrange a feng shui array to block evil qi.

"What's so fun about an iron lump?" He Ni looked at Zhang Shanhai and always kept playing with the bronze mirror in his hand. It is naturally difficult for the layman to discern the true identity of the rusty bronze mirror.

"Hehe, this is not an iron lump, this is a bronze mirror." Zhang Shanhai said with a smile.

"Is that a bronze mirror? Come on, that black thing can still shine a picture of a person? He Ni said.

"Of course, you can't shine on people, this is not meant to shine on people. This was used by the ancients to hang it at the door to block it. Do you remember that some people in Zhangjiashan have a mirror hanging on their door? The ancients didn't have glass mirrors, they used bronze mirrors. Zhang Shanhai took a piece of cloth and wiped it vigorously.

"Son, my mother told you something. You like these mysterious and secret land spells, and your mother won't stop you, but you should still continue to study, going to school can increase a lot of things you don't know, and in turn it may be helpful for you to study spells. So, you can't afford to leave your studies behind. Instead, you should redouble your efforts, get into high school, and then go to college. Learn scientific knowledge and corroborate it with ancient cultures. In this way, your achievements will be even greater. He Ni tried to convince her son.

"Okay, mother, I won't let go of studying." Zhang Shanhai said.

In the afternoon, Zhang Shanhai still went to the jade store, which is a state-owned unit.

The salesperson was the proudest profession of that era, and when she went to buy things, she looked at people with her eyes slanting downward.

As soon as Zhang Shanhai entered, he attracted the attention of the female comrades of the salesperson. This female comrade was wearing a professional standard uniform, gray Zhongshan women's clothes, and the collar of her white shirt turned out from the inside, and when she saw Zhang Shanhai walking in, she hurriedly walked over.

But she didn't come to greet customers, but to catch people, "Little comrade, this is not the place for you to play." You don't look at what kind of place this is, can you afford to break something? ”

Professional habits, originally a piece of good intentions, feel like looking down on people.

"Comrade salesman, I'm here to buy jade. Yes, I am a carving enthusiast and need to buy some jade materials for carving. Zhang Shanhai has already made up a reason, and with Zhang Shanhai's age, only this reason can stand the most.

The salesman comrade really looked at him differently, "I can't see that at a young age, he is actually a carving artist." In fact, the carving artist in the mouth of the salesman comrade means elementary school apprentice.

"Artists don't dare, that is, they are blindly trying to learn." Zhang Shanhai said modestly.

"Auntie will take you to see what kind of jade you want, but have your parents brought you enough money, this jade is very expensive. You see, the most expensive bracelet costs more than 500. The salesman said, pointing to a jade bracelet in the glass display case.
