Chapter 138: Don't Shake Your Hands
An ordinary jade toad with a large wooden bead in its mouth, this gift...... It's a bit ...... It's not decent, the toad in this home furnishing is only a few thousand yuan at most, could it be that this Gu Shuo is indeed a poor ghost? There was a buzzing sound, but there was a man sitting in the corner drinking alone, watching the toad's eyes glow.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu Shuo, I like this gift very much." Miao Cheng said words with a bad conscience and touched the toad a few times, and was also secretly thinking, whether this Gu Shuo is really poor or pretending to be poor, if he is really poor, how can he bear it The baby granddaughter is handed over to him, although Gu Shuo is well-connected, but how can he live a good life without money, and he will not let his baby granddaughter suffer for the sake of a little benefit of the family.
Of course, Gu Shuo could see that he was also very helpless in his heart, and suddenly remembered the envelope that Feng Cheng gave him, this was his last hope, Gu Shuo took out the envelope, in order to avoid Miao Cheng from seeing the eight big characters written by Feng Cheng as soon as he came up [Congratulations on the birthday, don't shake your hands], so he first handed it to Miao Cheng with the reverse side up.
"This is what the tutor dragged me to give you, of course, the tutor is a little weird, so if there is anything irregular in it, I hope Miao Lao will forgive me." Gu Shuo took a preventive shot first.
Gu Shuo has a master, Miao Cheng already knows, and it is not difficult to check Gu Shuo with his connections, "Haha, I have heard that Gu Shuo has a master who is thorough through the world, and please thank your master for me." ”
Everyone in the hall looked at this dirty envelope and sighed, they really looked up to this Gu Shuo, what kind of master does an apprentice have, sure enough, the apprentice slammed the door and sent a toad of several thousand, and this master directly sent a letter, and it was so shabby.
Miao Cheng was stunned as soon as he took it, and the people who saw the envelope were also stunned, and the people present were stunned because of the eight big characters on the envelope [Congratulations on the big birthday, don't shake your hands], and Miao Cheng was stunned not for these eight big characters.
As everyone watched, Miao Cheng's hands really began to tremble.
Some people began to discuss:
"Is Old Man Miao angry? You're stunned. ”
"Why, I didn't see my hands trembling."
"yes, how can there be such a birthday celebration."
…………
But Miao Cheng ignored anyone, staring straight at the red stamp in the upper right corner of the envelope.
What is it on the red stamps that read 'Long live the total victory of the proletariat in the special period'? Miao Cheng's hands were still trembling, and when he heard the words of the chaotic mockery, Gu Shuo and his master, his face finally sank.
"I can see this gift clearly!" After speaking, he held the envelope high.
The group shut up and went to see what was wrong.
Suddenly, some people saw it, but some people didn't.
"Oh my God!" "I'll go, read that right!"
The people who say these things are the ones who see the clues, and most of them are older people.
"This ...... This is the "All Mountains and Rivers of the Country" stamp issued on November 25, 1968? I read that right! "Finally someone got the idea.
Gu Shuo really doesn't know what it means, could it be that this stamp is very valuable?
"Brother Feng Cheng is really generous, he can get a 'big piece of red' and then give it away as a birthday gift." Su Wan said with a smile that Su Wan also loves stamp collection, so he also has some research and understanding of these.
Miao Cheng likes to collect stamps, and the degree of like to collect can be described as a degree of fascination, this 'big piece of red' how he doesn't recognize, but unfortunately it is glued to the envelope, and it is inevitable that it will cause a little wear and tear to the stamps when they take it off.
Gu Shuo didn't know how precious the 'big piece of red' was, but when he saw Miao Cheng's appearance, he knew that his master would definitely fight for his face, and the next time he saw his master, he would definitely have to kiss him.
Miao Cheng this is really loved, there are some people who come to celebrate their birthday, some of them also like to collect stamps, if it is not for the old man Miao Cheng also likes to collect stamps, and this stamp is also a gift received by the old man Miao on his birthday, then these people have already privately discussed with Miao Cheng whether they can resell the stamps to them.
Miao Cheng is going to put it away right now, and at this time someone is unwilling, "I said Mr. Miao, you have to open the envelope at least to see the things inside, this envelope is labeled with a 'big piece of red' The things in it must be more valuable, if you don't open it, is it because you are afraid that we will rob your things?" ”
"That's right, open it and take a look!"
"Yes, yes."
…………
echoed the chorus, Miao Cheng smiled, "Look at my frizziness, I forgot to open the envelope when I saw this 'big piece of red'." After speaking, he took out the envelope again, and carefully tore open the interface of the envelope, for fear that he would accidentally tear the stamp of the envelope.
As soon as the envelope was opened, Miao Cheng reached into his hand and took out a handful of stamps.
"Hiss~" The entire hall gasped.
"This ...... This is, 1...... In 1878, the Qing Dynasty government customs trial postal service issued China's first set of stamps - Dalong stamps! Be...... It's a full set! Old Man Miao's heart couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, and he was silent.
Who? Who just said this kid was a poor ghost? Stand out! Tamar who stood up and hit her didn't even know her! Stamps are not expensive, expensive! But even if it is expensive, some people are willing to pay a high price, but why are there still people who don't? The problem is that this stamp is rare, it has been out of print for hundreds of years, and it is not easy to find a few, and it is a joke to put together a set.
There was also a note in the envelope, and Miao Cheng didn't dare to be negligent, so he quickly looked at it carefully.
[Old man Miao, it's okay, my beloved apprentice went to your Miao family, but your Miao family didn't give me a mouthful of food, what a scene! ] Fortunately, my beloved apprentice is broad-minded, otherwise I will make your Miao family regret it for half a lifetime in minutes, and these broken things will be given to you as a gift, which can be regarded as a return gift from you to my beloved apprentice "Taiweng Fishing Map", I will come to your Miao family to sit and see my future apprentice and daughter-in-law when I am free. 】
After Miao Cheng finished reading, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he quickly put the note away.
Gu Shuo raised his eyebrows, his master still has a message? I'll go! Seeing Miao Lao's expression, it was estimated that his master didn't say anything good, if Gu Shuo knew that Feng Cheng actually took these stamps in exchange for the favor of "Taiweng Fishing Map", then Gu Shuo had to say that Feng Cheng was cunning.
"Although the tutor is old, but the childlike heart is not lost, if there are any words that are unbearable, I hope Miao Lao will forgive me." Gu Shuo hurriedly said.
Miao Cheng hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no!" By the way, the noble master mentioned that he would come to my Miao family to sit when he was free, you tell the noble master for me, say hello before coming, and the Miao family will definitely set up a banquet to entertain you! ”
