Chapter 119: Wonderful

Guo Yi was faced with something that reminded him of his childhood memories, and he naturally wanted to collect it, of course, if it was true, he casually asked the price, and the price was not low, a villain book published earlier would be sold for hundreds of yuan, and the complete set was even more expensive, ranging from hundreds to thousands, and even a set of 58-year-old "Water Margin" actually cost more than 10,000 yuan, Guo Yi didn't expect that these things would be left to this day and become antiques.

"When I was a child, my family was packed with boxes, a few pennies of things, and you sold it for so much."

Guo Yi squatted on the ground, looked at the gadgets on the stall, and muttered to the stall owner wearing a peaked hat in front of him very unpleasantly.

The stall owner looked like he was about forty years old, he was full of honesty, and he didn't get angry after hearing Guo Yi's words, and said with a smile: "Young man, it's not like what you said, twenty years ago, you could buy a lot of things for a few cents, but now I'm afraid you can't find a few cents of tickets and coins, and there is no point in going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, don't you say, young man......"

"Big brother, what you said makes sense, that would be a cream popsicle is a penny, and now you can't buy it dozens of times, this thing is getting more expensive every year......

Although he was robbed of white, Guo Yi was not angry, the words of the stall owner were indeed reasonable, not to mention anything else, in the early eighties, the three words "10,000 households" were synonymous with rich people, and they were the objects of envy of everyone, but if it is put now, everyone on the street is 10,000 households, even if it is Guo Yi two or three months ago, he counted his entire net worth. It's also a 20,000 yuan household, a 10,000 yuan household in the early 80s. Its status is probably at least on par with today's multimillionaires, which is not an exaggeration at all. At that time, it was enough to build a house and break a few thousand yuan, but now a house cannot be bought without two or three million in Jingdezhen, not to mention the capital.

"Yes, the young man is right, what is an antique, it is a thing that has been precipitated by time, and what can be preserved until now is an antique, and there is no ...... when you see it."

The big brother of the stall was quite talkative, pointed to a red tin thermos under his feet and said, "That's it." After 51,000 years, it will also be an antique, of course, if it has not been broken. ”

Guo Yi heard what this person said interestingly, and laughed, what he said was right, didn't I see those broken bricks on the ancient city wall of Xi'an, have they become treasures until now, those city wall bricks that were hollowed out some time ago due to the renovation of cafes by the management office caused a crazy rush on the market. Guo Yi was about to joke with this person, when he suddenly heard a noise in front of him, and the nature of the Chinese people who love to watch the excitement was undoubtedly revealed at this time, Guo Yi just heard the voice. The front is already three circles on the left and three circles on the right, and the circle is full of people.

Guo Yi stood there and didn't move, but after a while, a faint smile appeared on Guo Yi's face. didn't say anything, but continued to crouch down and look at these meaningful food stamps and villain books in front of him.

Xu Chunguang and Ming Shuo were attracted by this scene, and Tong GuΓ² said hello and passed. The stall owner tried to catch them and stop them from passing, but he didn't.

"I want to see the excitement. There's no hurry, because you'll get into trouble in the past. ”

"It's okay, just because those three-legged cat people can't please in front of them."

Guo Yi heard the stall owner's concerned words, knew that this person was a warm-hearted person, a smile appeared on his face, and said to the stall owner, that faint sentence, but inexplicably made the stall owner believe his words, and no longer persuaded anything, besides, he also saw that Mingshuo had already followed the few people who were separated from each other and then left in a bunch, and it was too late for Sun to say anything.

Before the arrival of the people from the market management office, Guo Yi selected a few villain books on the stall of this kind-hearted stall brother, in addition to a set of "Water Margin", there are several villain books such as "Crossing the River Reconnaissance" and so on are not very complete and have missing villain books, although villain books are not Guo Yi's business, but the current villain book market is bullish, if you collect it now, you will not suffer a loss if you put it for a few years, Guo Yi has determined that all the villain books on this enthusiastic stall big brother stall are published in that era, There is no copy of the old version of the current era to put it on the table, I don't know if the big brother of the stall didn't find out or he just did this business.

Guo Yi didn't bargain, in the backpack he carried, he took out two piles of pink old man's heads, and after taking out seventy of them and putting them in the bag, all the rest were handed over to the big brother of the stall, and the big brother of the stall is also a wonderful person, Guo Yi bought it happily, and he also happily took the banknotes handed to him by Guo Yi and put them away without checking them, in his words, the young man is not a thief at first glance, otherwise your friend would not risk chasing the thief.

Then Guo Yi put the villain books into his bag, said hello to the big brother of the stall, and left for the place where the accident just happened, where Xu Chunguang was still waiting.

At this time, a thin middle-aged man led three people in uniform to come over, separating the crowd of onlookers, they walked in, but after walking in, they were obviously stunned for a moment, and the quarrel in the middle of the crowd was four men, two of whom were actually high-nosed foreigners, and the other was a young man in a suit and leather shoes, and his hair was combed into a shiny and shiny head. should be a few years younger than Guo Yi, with a two-meter-square piece of oiled paper under his feet, on which some root carving handicrafts are placed, but he was kicked all over the ground, and it seems that he is the victim.

"What's going on with you, tell me, this is your stall, you say it first,"

After the people in the market management office returned to normal, they glanced at it and understood what was going on, it is estimated that the young man blinded the two foreigners, and then the foreigner came to find the scene with this translator, and this kind of thing has happened several times in the market.

The middle-aged man suddenly felt a little more dislike for the young little translator, and not everyone admired foreign charm these days.

The young stall owner was half-squatting helplessly, cleaning up the root carvings that had been kicked everywhere on the ground. After hearing the middle-aged man's words, he stood up. It seemed that the stall owner knew this middle-aged man, and shouted: "Director Wang......" Just when he was about to talk about what happened. but it was interrupted.

"You're the leader of this market, right? This man deceived these two British friends of mine by passing off ordinary handicrafts as antiques, and I ask you to deal with them strictly and give us appropriate compensation, otherwise, I will sue you for defrauding foreign friends. ”

You Liang Xiaobian saw a person who looked like a leader, but he didn't ask him first, and he suddenly became unhappy, and opened his mouth to interrupt the stall owner's words. He was still pointing in his hands, and his expression was extremely arrogant.

The people around saw that the two devils treated the two Britons so lowly, and treated their own people with this attitude, many young people had already scolded, and some did not scold, but there was a hateful expression on their faces, it seemed that if the two devils had a little more stimulation, they would roll up their sleeves and beat him.

A disgusted expression appeared on Director Wang's face, and he reached out and brushed away the fingers of the shiny little part. Zhengrong said: "I didn't ask you, now please stand away a little, and you will talk about it when I ask you." ”

You Liang Xiaofeng didn't expect this Director Wang to be so faceless, and he became angry at the moment. was about to step forward to theorize, but saw the burly security guards standing behind Director Wang, and then listened to the accusations of the surrounding crowd. Immediately, he honestly retreated, and began to mumble quietly with the two foreigners again.

The young stall owner also slowly told Director Wang about the matter. It turned out that their ancestors were all carvings, and what was sold to foreigners was a root carving handed down from their ancestors. When he sells, he will make it clear to others, the price is not expensive, he carved more than two hundred yuan, and the ancestors are only about five or six hundred yuan, but he didn't expect the foreigner to leave happily, he went to lunch, and when he came back, the stall had been smashed, and the foreigner said that he was not selling antiques, and they didn't want to think that if it was a shareholder, it would not be so cheap, so there was this scene in front of him.

After listening to the young man, Director Wang's face appeared with such an expression, this young man has not been here for a long time, but Director Wang has inquired about his origin, and has a good impression of this young man, inquiring about privacy is not specifically for young people, but for everyone in the market is the same, do understand clearly, after the incident, quickly make judgments according to everyone's character, and also prevent some other things.

This stall owner is very aggrieved, and he was somehow messed up, who is he going to talk to? Several stall owners next to him also testified to him, proving that what the young man said was not bad, which made Director Wang, who had already believed the young man in Xiang, have a more determined expression on his face.

Guo Yi and Xu Chunguang, who have been standing on the side, can both understand English, especially after Guo Yi breaks through the realm, his memory is even stronger, and many things he has learned before will be churned out in his mind from time to time, hearing the conversation between the two devils and the two foreigners, he couldn't help but shake his head, the ability of the two devils to make up nonsense is really strong, no wonder such a thing happens.

After Director Wang figured out the reason, he wanted to bring the person back to the management office, but he thought of something, turned back to the young man next to him and said, "Go and contact Deputy Director Gao and ask him to come back as a translator." ”

"Director, when Deputy Director Gao asked for leave yesterday, didn't he say that he accompanied his mother-in-law to the countryside to worship his father-in-law today, and he won't be able to come back in a short time." The people around him said to Director Wang in embarrassment

"Yes," Director Wang was very big about the return of his subordinates, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"I'll come, my surname is Guo, I have passed level 8 in college English, and there should be no problem with simple conversation and comprehension."

At this time, Guo Yi stood up and recommended himself, Mingshuo had already returned, and by the way, he quietly returned the wallet he got back to the man's pocket, Xu Chunguang heard Guo Yi's words, but his face was excited, he also wanted to teach this second devil a lesson, but although his English passed the sixth level, but in the past few years, when it was almost useless, it was almost returned to the teachers.

"You?"

Director Wang was a little surprised when he heard Guo Yi's words, but when he saw that Guo Yi's dress and dress, and his accent were not local, he should not be in the same group as those people, so he believed his words. Nodding in agreement.

When the second devil saw that the matter was beyond his control, there was an anxious look on his face, this famous second devil Li Qiang turned out to be the brother-in-law of the owner of a local porcelain company in Jingdezhen. Usually I'm lazy to do it, and I don't want to do anything. But he speaks fluent English.,In this way, he was raised by his brother-in-law.,When there are foreigners, let him act as a translator.。

This time, the two Britons are the supervisors of the Ministry of Foreign Trade under the British Royal Group, and they were invited by their brother-in-law to visit the new products, and by the way, after the goods were inspected some time ago, they were sealed and shipped to the United Kingdom.

When the British came, Li Qiang's strength came, and he was assigned by his brother-in-law to be responsible for receiving these two foreign guests. Since it came in handy, Li Qiang is like showing his ability to his brother-in-law, these days in the name of foreign guests, as a prestige, in the hotel to find fault with the waiter, the director of the hotel is bored but dare not say anything, today he wanted to express his own savings, who let the foreigner buy when he was not there, now he knows that he has done the wrong thing. But it was too late.

After the group arrived at the management office, a security guard picked up a pen and paper and said to the translator: "You tell me what happened again, and we will hand over these records to the market police station." ”

Li Qiang's heart at this time. I have already repented of my intestines, but these two devils don't have to think about it, the hotel is a service industry. Pay attention to a kind person to make money, and the waiter there waits for the student. They are all professionally trained, as long as they are not physically beaten. I won't go against the guests.

"Director Wang, can I say a few words to these two foreign friends first?"

Just when Li Qiang's face was pale and uncertain, Guo Yi said.

"It's okay, you first ask them what happened, tell them, if it is our responsibility, we will definitely deal with it strictly, but we must also let them abide by the laws and regulations of our country, and don't think that as a foreigner, they are superior."

Director Wang nodded and explained a few words to Guo Yi.

"Hello, I'm Guo Yi, the temporary translator." Guo Yi greeted the two foreigners, and his fluent London accent made the eyes of the two foreigners from the UK immediately light up and made them feel cordial.

You must know that in order to learn English well in school, Guo Yi followed the English department to visit the English corners of all universities in China Overseas, and studied with two international students from the UK in the English corner of Jiao Tong University for half a year.

"Hello, my name is Smith, his name is Green, you tell them, we are all serious businessmen, you tell them, I think there is some misunderstanding between us."

After the foreigner named Smith heard Guo Yi's London accent, he immediately stood up excitedly and said to Guo Yi excitedly

"Mr. Guo, yes, if there is anything you can ask me, I will explain to the customer that today's incident is a misunderstanding." At this time, Li Qiang heard Guo Yi's pure English, and said in a hurry

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding can smash my stall, what kind of misunderstanding is this? I won't buy the things, and you will return the things to me after the money."

The young stall owner happened to walk in with a basket woven with a bamboo basket on his back, and when he heard this, he immediately became angry, he was not there when he just smashed the stall, and he was caught fishing in the water, and he may have lost a lot, and he was angry, and after hearing Li Qiang's words, he was even more angry and put the frame on the ground, and took out six hundred yuan on his body and lined it up on the table.

Li Qiang's face turned pale all of a sudden, and the current situation seemed far beyond expectations, and the two foreigners were at a loss, looking at Guo Yi hoping that Guo Yi would tell him what had happened, and now it seems that the translation he brought seems to be a little unreliable.

Guo Yi told the two foreigners what happened in English, and when the foreigner heard it, he immediately jumped up excitedly.

"Guo, please tell him, I like that sculpture very much, and I am willing to double the price to buy it," Smith hurriedly said to Guo Yi

Guo Yi explained the matter to the young stall owner, but the young stall owner was angry, and the injury received this time was relatively strict, so he didn't agree to anything, and finally Guo Yi shrugged his shoulders speechlessly at the two foreigners, saying that he couldn't do anything.

"That's not the case, it was Li Sue sΓΉ that we didn't worth six hundred yuan, so he brought us back." Mo Yang, who was built by a foreigner Guo Yi, said it as soon as he was excited, and by the way, he took out a palm-sized, black root in the backpack on the slaughtered back and carved it out.

When the young stall owner heard Guo Yi's translation, he immediately became excited, and he got up and left for this Li Qiang.

"It turns out that it's all you, a guy with foreign self-respect, who is doing ghosts, I'll kill you."

Guo Yi stretched out his hand and grabbed the young man who had rioted and stopped him from doing such a thing in the management office.

In order to save himself, Li Qiang, the second devil, bore the loss of the young stall owner, otherwise once it reached his brother-in-law's ears, his sister's pillow wind would be useless, so he could only go home and play by himself.

The young stall owner didn't care about the foreigner's persistence, and still took the root carving back, saying that he wouldn't sell it to them anymore, and finally the two foreigners left the management office with a disappointed feeling.

However, Guo Yi bought all the root carvings after the matter was over, and did not accept the gift from the stall owner, and at the same time told the stall owner that if his root carving was taken to the big market, the price would be no problem, and his carving had been deep in two of the three flavors, as long as he practiced diligently for a period of time, it was not a problem to enter the house.
