Chapter 578: The Old Man Who Collects Scrap

Big bargain, big bargain, big bargain, and big bargain.

There are so many things, although they were sold by Yuan Jianguo as scrap to the old man who collected scrap, but these things are not just scraps? Take those pieces of furniture as an example, even if the sofa is a little damaged, it can at least be 50% new.

As for the coffee table or something, although it was also many years ago, but because it was for home use, it was kept very well, and at least seventy percent new.

If these things are directly sold in the second-hand market, how can it be as simple as a few hundred yuan?

You must know that this kind of second-hand furniture can not be sold in the market, especially those who specialize in renting houses, and they buy this kind of cheap furniture that can be said to be reasonable on the face.

An empty, unfurnished one-bedroom apartment can be rented for five or six hundred yuan a month in Suli, but if you add some household accessories such as sofas, coffee tables, computer desks, etc., then the price can directly become seven or eight hundred yuan a month, and these things are in the second-hand market, and the price of a few hundred yuan will be supported to die, and it will take less than two months to return to the cost, so it is no wonder that this kind of second-hand furniture will be more popular.

And Yuan Da's these things, just the sofa cost two hundred, the coffee table and the study table also cost two hundred, plus some other things, the value is quite expensive.

Of course, if Yuan Da sells second-hand by himself, he may be able to sell it for so much money, but the key is how can they have time to sell it?

Just like the old man who collected waste just now said about the bed and wardrobe or something, for Yuan Da and them, these things are no different from waste wooden boards when they are removed, and at most they can only burn the fire.

But for this old man, if he dismantles it and takes it home, he may be able to assemble it, although it is likely to be crumbling or something, but he doesn't care about adding a few more planks and nails, even if it is not good-looking, it is easy to use.

This means that some things are really difficult to get, otherwise, this old man really wants to get some, such as cupboards and indoor doors, I can't wait for this old man to directly get rid of the floor tiles on the ground, but Yuan Jianguo still has to keep these things.

After all, Yuan Jianguo simply sold the house to the developer, although they will demolish the house at that time, but at least they have to leave a similar house for others, and they can't directly give people a cement frame, which is not the case.

At this time, in the face of the old man's proposal to take away the wardrobe and mattress, Yuan Jianguo did not object, because these things did not belong to the house itself, so he first waved his hand to signal that he did not smoke, and then said.

"Mattress and those two wardrobes in the bedroom, and the bed, how much can you give? My two wardrobes and beds are made of solid wood, and the mattress cost thousands of dollars back then, so don't give it too low......"

"This ...... I'll check it out again......"

Hearing Yuan Jianguo's words, the old man didn't care about the unlit cigarette in his hand, hurriedly stood up and walked to the room, and after observing a circle, he immediately walked out, lighting the cigarette at the corner of his mouth, while silently totaling in his heart.

"The mattress is a good brand, but it's been a few years, and it's also discolored, and the springs are a little loose, so let's give you fifty yuan, how about it?" Two mattresses for fifty ......"

"As for the wardrobe and bed, how about giving you two hundred?"

"Two hundred? Fifty? This count...... It's not very lucky, add a little ......"

Hearing that the old man offered a price of two hundred and fifty yuan, Yuan Jianguo did not object, but this figure was really not good, and then said.

As soon as he heard Yuan Jianguo's words, the old man also reflected, and even cracked his mouth and laughed, and then said.

"Yes, yes, yes, this number is not very good, then two hundred and six, okay? Also, I see that there is a bunch of paper shells on the balcony, so I will take it with me......"

"Okay, that's it, two hundred and sixty ......"

"Still, with so many things, when will you be able to finish them? I don't think your little tricycle can hold so many things, I still have to go to work in the afternoon......"

Removing the wardrobe and bed, and having to move so many things downstairs and then transport them away, this is not an easy job, the reason why Yuan Jianguo hasn't left yet, in addition to looking at his own home, has to leave the most locked door.

In other words, if this old man who collects waste products doesn't leave, he can't leave himself.

"Right now, these things are fast, I'll call someone to help......"

After hearing Yuan Jianguo's concerns, the old man didn't say a word, and hurriedly took out the phone and called out.

"Hey, son, hurry up, there's a big job, call your mother too, bring tools, drive your big cart over, yes, it's the one I came over in the morning, well, hurry up, people are still waiting in a hurry......"

Hung up the phone, the old man turned his head and smiled at Yuan Jianguo, and while putting away the phone, he also took out a stack of very scattered small bills in his arms, and looked down with a very excited smile to check the money.

"Two hundred and sixty yuan, you check, don't be wrong......"

Stretching out his dark, deeply wrinkled hand, he handed over two hundred and sixty yuan, which was almost all made up of change, to Yuan Jianguo.

As for Yuan Jianguo, he didn't really check it much, just looked at it briefly and put it in his pocket, then stood up and said to him.

"You do it first, I'll go have a bite to eat, I'll come back later, those things I didn't sell you, don't move, my house is also sold to others, I don't want people to come to me when the time comes......"

"Okay, don't worry, it won't give you a bad ......"

Hearing Yuan Jianguo's words, he may have looked down on himself, but this old man didn't mean to be angry at all, but hurriedly responded.

I stood up, walked down the stairs, and came to a small noodle restaurant nearby, where I came to a bowl of the most ordinary beef noodles, the kind of beef noodles that are said to be beef but not beef, plus a small plate of mixed vegetables.

This is the most common meal that Yuan Jianguo eats when Yuan Da is not at home on weekdays, five yuan of beef noodles, three yuan of mixed vegetables, if he is in a good mood, a bottle of beer for two yuan will only cost ten yuan.

And sometimes it is simpler at night, it can be solved directly in the canteen of the unit, if you don't have to go to socialize often, Yuan Jianguo's food for a month is only three or four hundred yuan, which is much lower than Yuan Da's food and living expenses of nearly two thousand yuan a month.

After a meal, I sat in the noodle restaurant and watched the news on the TV, and in a blink of an eye, more than half an hour had passed, and I returned to my downstairs after settling the bill, only to find that the tricycle that was originally parked downstairs had left.

Could it be that the old man who collected the scrap is gone? Or did they just send it back and were about to come back a second time?

Yuan Jianguo, who didn't know what the situation was, hurriedly got into the unit door and walked upstairs.

There was no old man, but the door of the house was still open, and when I entered the door, I found that there was an old lady in a street sanitation vest cleaning the room.

"Yuan ...... Director Yuan...... This...... Is this your home? ”

Just as Yuan Jianguo walked into the room, before he could speak, the old lady in the sanitation vest seemed to hear the footsteps, turned her head to look at Yuan Jianguo, seemed to be very surprised, and hurriedly said.

"You...... Do you know me? ”

This old lady was surprised, and of course Yuan Jianguo was also surprised, after all, he is not a star, how can he be known everywhere he goes?

"No, no, you don't know me, I've just seen you, I'm ...... I'm from Taiping Street, so you're in our district......"

"Oh, that's right......"

It turned out to be the street staff he had managed, so it was not strange to know him, but Yuan Jianguo was still a little strange why she was here, and then hurriedly asked.

And this question only learned that this old lady was originally the wife of the old man who collected waste, and she stayed here at this time just to clean up the house for Yuan Jianguo.

The mess in the original house was all packed up by her, piled up into a pile, although the clutter was not thrown out, but the original floor of the house has been revealed, and there is no place to put down, and even the discarded wardrobe waste has been put away.

"This is what my old man asked me to give you, saying that it was the money for those waste paper shells on the balcony, and the money for a clothes pole in the bathroom, and he said that these should be enough......"

Just when Yuan Jianguo wanted to let the old lady leave, the old lady actually handed Yuan Jianguo another ten yuan, and Yuan Jianguo was a little stunned at first, and then took the money and said.

"Well, I know, here...... There's no need to clean up here, and it's not inhabited anyway...... You can go too, I'll lock the door and go to work......"

After that, Yuan Jianguo took the lead in walking out of the door, and the old lady naturally hurriedly followed.

At the same time, on the other side, Yuan Da and Tang Wanqing had already arrived at the garage where things were temporarily stored.

This garage is not far from the new home, because this garage is in the same neighborhood as the new home, but only one unit building away.

As for why you chose this place, isn't it because it's convenient to move when the time comes? Not only is it convenient, but it also leaves money to find a moving company a second time.

Speaking of which, Yuan Da's calculations are really enough, and even this can be thought of.

It took nearly three hours to load the truck in the morning, but now the unloading is much faster, and it took half an hour to unload it crackling, and it only took the two professional movers to work there, Yuan Da and Tang Wanqing were just looking at the scenery there.

Because there was a floor increase before, but then there was no garage, plus some simple anti-collision protection costs, a total of 330 yuan of moving expenses, after paying, the truck left.

As for Yuan Da and Tang Wanqing, of course they won't stay here for a long time, because the garage is already full at this time, and even the garage door is finally closed, so there is no need to stay here.

What's more, there are still very important things waiting for Yuan Da here, so Yuan Da and Tang Wanqing didn't make any stops, and got off and drove straight to Pan Hongbing's side.
