Chapter 33: Entrusting a store to buy furniture
Yan Bugui thought that it seemed that the money from selling furniture would not be earned.
These tables, chairs, and cabinets at home have been used for decades, and they are a little old, so I said:
"Then where are you going to buy this furniture, or do you want to re-buy it?"
"If I don't fight again, I'm going to go to the commission store to buy some old furniture." Yan Jiecheng replied.
"If you buy it in the store, you can buy the old one, you can just use it at home, and you can still have the shipping left."
In these years, those who can't pull away large items have to find a scooter, and they all belong to freelancers.
"I buy old furniture and buy good wood, and these things in our house are not related to good wood, and it is too troublesome to burn a fire." looked at Yan Bugui and replied helplessly.
"Hey! How to speak, these furniture in our house can also be used, and if you can use it, what else do you pay attention to? Yan Bugui said unrelentingly.
Yan Jiecheng ignored him, and ate with his head bored.
The next day and Sunday were off, Yan Jiecheng got up early to wash, and today he planned to go to the entrusted store to see if there was any old furniture made of good wood, preferably antiques, so that he could make a lot of money in a few decades. ”
Pushing the bicycle out of the courtyard.
There are four major entrusted stores in Beijing, Dongdan, Xisi, Caishikou and Beixinqiao, among which the second-hand bicycles in Beixinqiao are the most famous
Beixinqiao, who went to the first two times, is going to go to the consignment store in Dongdan this time.
Hop on your bike and go straight to the Todan Entrusted Store.
Because it was a Sunday, the streets were full of people.
Looking at Yan Jiefang, who was riding a bicycle, his face was full of envy.
There's no way, brother is spicy.
When I came to the Dongdan entrusted store, I went straight to the place where the furniture was sold.
While walking, I saw that there are really a lot of furniture placed here, but there is not much collection value, many of them are furniture from the Republic of China or the 50s, and the wood used is also very miscellaneous.
As I was walking, I suddenly saw two official hat chairs walking over and taking a closer look and touching them with my hands, which seemed to be the four official hat chairs of the Ming Dynasty... This is Huang Huali's, and quickly called the clerk to point to the two chairs and said:
"How much do these two chairs cost, comrade?"
"Sixteen yuan, the wood of this chair is good, it is Huanghuali." The clerk replied.
"I want these two chairs, put them here first, and I'll look at the others." As he spoke, he took out the money and gave the money for the two chairs.
After giving the money, I continued to walk forward, and walked around the place where the furniture was placed, but I didn't see any collectible furniture.
So I picked two circle chairs from the late Qing Dynasty, a set of sofas and coffee tables from the Republic of China, wardrobes and cabinets from the fifties, tables and a large double bed, and dressers.
Except for the two Huanghuali official hat chairs, which are a bit expensive, the other furniture is very cheap, and it costs less than a hundred yuan in total. In this era, if you put it in the future for a hundred yuan, you will buy a few catties of pork.
After paying the money and taking the invoice, he went out and called two board cars, loaded the furniture into the car, and told the master to find Yan Bugui when he arrived at the place.
After explaining, I originally wanted to go to the entrusted store in Xisi to have a look, but I touched the ticket in my pocket and thought about it, and I will go again when I get paid next time.
Riding a bicycle to the courtyard, people passing by have sideways, mainly because bicycles are too rare in this era, and there are one or two in a compound, which is less than the cars of later generations. Especially Yan Jiecheng's car is still a high-end version, and everything that can be matched is matched, and Yan Jiecheng, who is riding a car, enjoys this gaze very much.
When I returned to the courtyard, I saw Master Wang and Master Sun working with a few people, and there were a lot of cement sand and wood in front of the door of the inverted house...
Come to your doorstep and park your bike. I saw the three mothers coming over in a hurry:
"Mom, the furniture you brought is ready."
"I can't put it in your house, so I put a few in our house." The three mothers replied.
"Just watch my dad and don't embezzle me." Yan Jiecheng said jokingly
"Hey, it's impossible for your dad to sleep on your furniture when he's picking on the door."
"By the way, Mom's lunch is ready. Wait a minute, the workers should be hungry. ”
"Don't worry, you still can't trust your mother, I'll send it to them later."
The three mothers went to the kitchen after speaking. Meals were brought to the workers who were working.
"Xie Cheng, are you going to decorate those three inverted houses?"
As soon as I wanted to go back to the room, I heard someone talking, and when I looked back, I saw that it was Xu Damao, this kid, who didn't know what he was busy with recently, and was often mysterious:
"Yes, it's time for me to talk about the object, so I can't decorate the house quickly."
"Also, when your house is repaired, find a time for my brother to invite you to drink." Xu Damao said with a smile.
I thought to myself, this Yan Jiecheng has scolded the uncle and the group of stupid pillars a lot these times, although they are not friends, they can be regarded as a front, and they have to get a good relationship, and they have nothing to do to study the skills of scaring people together.
As soon as Yan Jiecheng heard that Xu Damao was going to invite himself to dinner, he hurriedly said with the idea of not taking advantage of the bastard: "Okay, when the time comes, drink some together, you can just serve the food, and I will bring the wine." ”
"Hey! I look down on my brother, don't you, how can I use you to bring wine, I don't have much else, I can drink more, and when the time comes, you will come. Xu Damao thought to himself, if you dare to take your wine, I will dare to drink it! This bottle of two pots of head is mixed with half a bottle of water, and he is really uncomfortable after drinking it.
Looking at this Xu Damao's expression, Yan Xie Chengcheng knew that this Xu Damao wanted to be crooked, and hurriedly said, "Okay, then listen to you, and I'll go directly when the time comes." ”
"Okay, then it's decided, you stay, I have to go back, my moth is still waiting for me to go back to cook." After saying that, I went straight to the backyard.
This Xu Damao is not too bad now, at least it doesn't make people feel disgusting, and he can cook for his daughter-in-law, there are a few old men who cook for their daughter-in-law at home in this era, except for being a cook himself.
"Xie Cheng, are you going to find a partner for this renovation house? Do you need an uncle to introduce you to one? ”
Just as I was thinking about something, I heard an uncle call himself.
"Hey! I really don't need to, my mother has to worry about this matter, you better introduce it to the stupid pillar, you have to worry about the stupid pillar, he is not small. Yan Jiecheng looked at Uncle Yi and squinted his eyes and said.
"I want to introduce Silly Zhu, but he's too picky, he wants to be beautiful and knowledgeable, so where can I find him." Uncle Yi thought of the stupid pillar and said helplessly.
"It's okay to pick one, who makes people stupid and have good conditions, a house, a car, money, and a job." Yan Jiecheng said with a smile.
That's right, Silly Zhu has now ridden the bicycle, which is the second-hand one that Yan Jiecheng bought at the beginning, Yan Bugui gave the frame to an uncle, and this uncle gave it to Silly Zhu with two wheels, of course, it was lent to Silly Zhu, and the money still had to be returned to Uncle Yi.
