On the car back to the guest house, I couldn't wait to open the selected poems given by the old chief.

Looking at the title page, it was written with a brush "May Comrade Xu Duhuan study hard and make progress every day", as well as the old chief's signature and date.

I flipped back again, the poetry selection is not new, I look at it and read it often, and there are many annotations on it.

With this anthology of poems, she was infinitely excited, with a group photo of the old chief and this anthology of poems, she and Grandpa Xu also locked up a layer of security during the storm.

Although it wasn't specifically taken out to show off, Duan Huan still felt that he was extremely lucky, and once again thanked his koi physique.

I stayed in the capital for two more days, and when it was not dawn in the past two days, the grandfather and grandson went to the two major black cities in the capital.

The capital is the capital, and the black market has more types and quality of antiques than those in Jincheng.

Among them, the most noteworthy is that Huan Huan actually found a complete set of dragon robes and phoenix robes in the Ming Dynasty, including a full set of jewelry.

I don't know where the stall owner got it from, there are a lot of miscellaneous things in his stall, and it seems that he is in this business.

These two sets of dress jewelry are definitely not the family heirlooms he said, and he glanced at them at the fact that they were not funeral goods, so he did not deliberately expose him.

It's just that bargaining is chopping to death, who knows where he came from, anyway, he won't sell it below the purchase price.

In the end, after bargaining for a long time, it was finally sold for 2,000 yuan.

After a rough calculation, it is estimated that there must be at least seven or eight taels of gold on the jewelry, which is more than a thousand yuan, and the workmanship of the remaining clothes and jewelry is less than a thousand yuan, which is quite cost-effective.

Although money is worth it now, the price of gold will rise in 20 years' time.

Besides, these things were originally used for collections, so it doesn't matter if you have money.

Shopping in the black market in the morning, and going to the scrap station to Taobao in the afternoon, Grandpa Xu specially accompanied Duan Huan to several large waste collection stations to rummage around.

I really found a lot of good things, but in a place like the capital, there are more people with sharp eyes.

Gold, silver and jade must not be thought about, but there are indeed a lot of ancient books and paintings in it.

I was picky and picky, I bought a few bags of hemp for books, and some calligraphy and paintings, although I couldn't understand the truth or falsehood, but since it was a dime and a pound, I couldn't afford to lose it.

I have played everything in the capital, I have eaten everything I should eat, and I have a lot of surprises.

Grandpa Xu bought the train ticket and was ready to go home with Duhuan, and Mrs. He took the He brothers and carried eight pieces of dim sum from Beijing to see off the grandparents and grandchildren.

The departure time is approaching, Grandpa Xu and Mrs. He are saying goodbye at the door of the car, and people are easy to be sentimental when they are old.

When the two old men were wounded and bleeding on the battlefield, they also gritted their teeth and survived with a smile.

I guess I didn't expect that they would have this kind of emotion themselves.

The staff at the station were urging them to get on the train, and after the two old men saluted each other, Grandpa Xu got on the train with his luggage in one hand and Wanhuan in the other.

It is still the same route to return the same way before, who makes the current Sichuan Province such a railway, from the status quo of officially breaking away from the Shu Road, it will take decades of struggle.

When Grandpa Xu changed trains in Chang'an City, he also bought a ticket for the next day and stayed in Chang'an City for one day and one night.

The wind and sand in Chang'an City are strong, and the air is also very dry, Grandpa Xu is afraid that he will not be used to it.

So in addition to tasting various delicacies, Grandpa Xu also bought a little local fruit for Duhuan on the black market near the train station.

In the crisp autumn season of Xi'an, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, but because of this temperature difference, the sugar content of the fruit is very high, and the taste is exceptionally sweet.

Apples, dates, pomegranates, it's the first time I've seen so many fruits at the same time since I came here.

The black market is only one street away from the train station, so not only locals but also tourists from other places are rushing to the train station in baskets.

After a while, the fruit was loaded into the car, and it was cheap to eat it when I went home, and it was better to give people such a quality of fruit.

If you are more shrewd, you can go back to the second-tier dealers in the black market and change hands, and you can immediately double the price.

I gnawed on an apple and got on the train from Chang'an to Xifu, and when I got off at the Xifu Railway Station, there happened to be a train to Jincheng that was about to leave.

Grandpa Xu asked for Huan's opinion, and Huanhuan felt that there was no need to rest in Xifu for so much, and he could sleep in the sleeper anyway.

So the grandparents and grandchildren almost raced in a 100-meter race, and boarded the train at the last second before the train started.

When Grandpa Xu led Duan Huan into their sleeper car, the remaining three berths were already full.

A young man saw Grandpa Xu, an old man with a small doll, so he offered to change it with Grandpa Xu.

Huanhuan immediately took out a pomegranate and an apple from her small satchel and handed them to express her gratitude.

For the kindness of others, Wan Huan still knows how to be grateful, with her modern logic, she is not used to receiving the benefits of others in vain.

"Little girl, this is unacceptable, the fruit is rare now!" The young man looked at Wan Huan's pure eyes a little embarrassed, and he felt that it was originally a gesture.

Grandpa Xu put away the luggage and immediately persuaded: "Young man, take it!" These are also sent by relatives, not worth much, my doll is thanks to you for the convenience, our grandparents have saved a lot of trouble! ”

"Uncle, take it, this apple is so sweet!" With a smile on his face, he shoved the fruit into his hand.

After the next conversation, I learned that the young man's name was Li Xi, a native of Beijing, who had just graduated from university and had gone to Sichuan Province to support the construction of the third line.

Although Sichuan Province is vigorously improving its infrastructure, these workers from developed areas are welcome to come to Sichuan Province to participate in the construction of the third line.

But in all fairness, in addition to the newly built factories in the city, those who are assigned to build projects in remote areas are very hard.

She had extremely high respect for those who dared to give up their good jobs in the developed areas and go to Sichuan Province and other western cities and remote areas to devote themselves to revolutionary construction.

It can be said that without these workers in the construction of the third line, the development of Sichuan Province, which is blocked by transportation, will lag behind for at least ten years in the future.

In the chat and exchange that followed, Li Xi learned that Grandpa Xu used to be a soldier, and then he admired the rapid retreat.

And Grandpa Xu admires Li Xi for having dreams and passions, and dares to put his passion into real work, so as to practice and complete his ideals.

This is much higher than those young people who talk about revolution and doctrine every day.

This is called being able to be young and promising.

Huan Huan sat against the wall of the sleeper, watching Grandpa Xu and Li Xi chat while playing chess.

Occasionally, he can ask whimsical questions, Li Xi is a typical intellectual nowadays, with a very rigorous academic attitude, and if he knows, he has to say that there are arguments, and what he doesn't know is not known.

First compared with the kind of fake big empty who doesn't know the answer to change the topic, Duan Huan feels that Li Xi's attitude is more worthy of praise.

The other two people in the carriage were a husband and wife who had traveled from Xi'an to Jincheng to visit relatives, and the couple didn't say anything most of the time, just listening to Grandpa Xu and Li Xi chatting.

Some shy husband and wife have a good impression of the couple, at least much better than the pair of bear children's parents who met when they came.
