A 20-year-old boy went to the corner of the street to collect junk. At first, Han Chunming refused.
But later, Zhang Hexuan said that he would give him a monthly salary of 50 yuan, which made Han Chunming very happy.
When he was working in the food factory, his monthly salary was only about 30 yuan.
Now that he was asked to collect junk and was given such a high salary, how could he not be willing?
Han Chunming smiled and said," Brother Xuan, I don't care if I collect junk. As long as I can earn money, I don't care about anything else. I only care about money!"”
Zhang Hexuan looked at him and said," Let me tell you. Actually, when I asked you to collect junk, I didn't just ask you to collect junk. I have a very important task for you!"”
"I know that you're very knowledgeable about antique calligraphy and paintings, so I want you to use the opportunity of collecting waste to help me collect these things! Collecting waste was secondary. His main job was to collect antique calligraphy and paintings.”
When Han Chunming heard this, he was dumbfounded. What was going on?
Antique calligraphy and paintings were completely banned in this era. They had no value at all and were purely used to play with and admire.
If he collected these things in piles, they would be no different from waste.
How was he going to earn money? It was obviously a losing business.
Han Chunming scratched his head and said,"Brother Xuan, why don't you reduce my salary a little?" To tell you the truth, I've done antique calligraphy and paintings before, but I couldn't sell them at all. In the end, I could only keep them for myself to admire. I couldn't earn any money at all.”
"Also, I know that your monthly salary is not much. I really feel a little bad that you're offering me such a high salary now.”
"You don't have to worry about that." Zhang Hexuan shook his hand.”
"As long as you see a good item, you can buy it back at the lowest price!”
"We're brothers, it's only right for us to help each other. Don't think too much. Moreover, I won't lose anything. On the contrary, I can earn a huge sum of money. As for how I earn money, you'll know in the future. Don't worry, just do as I say. Leave the rest to me!”
Han Chunming looked at Zhang Hexuan's serious eyes and was so touched that he almost cried on the spot.
Brother, what do you mean by brother? This is what you call a brother!
Who was Cheng Jianjun? He had been playing with him since he was young, but he always stabbed him in the back. This time, he even caused him to be so miserable.
However, Zhang Hexuan was different. They had only met three times, but he had already helped him take revenge, solved his job problem, and even offered him such a high salary.
Han Chunming looked at Zhang Hexuan with tears in his eyes."Brother Xuan, I won't say anymore. I'll remember how good you are to me. From now on, you are my brother! I'm your biological brother!"
Zhang Hexuan nodded with a smile and began to explain some details of the antique purchase to Han Chunming.
For example, the more he wanted something, the less he could give it a good evaluation. The more he had to pretend not to care, so that he could take it back at a low price.
Burial objects that were dug out from the ground with cold air could not be collected. This was illegal. If they were caught, they would be shot.
There were also those with low historical and cultural value that were not worth much money.
Not only that, Zhang Hexuan also took out a large number of bills and gave them to him. He asked him to find time to go to the black market and exchange these bills for gold bars. He also told him to disguise himself when he went.
Zhang Hexuan promised to give him a 5% commission every time.
This made Han Chunming extremely excited. To put it bluntly, as long as he was diligent, he could earn at least 70 to 80 yuan a month.
After the discussion was over, Han Chunming went home happily.
At this moment, Zhang Hexuan was in a good mood. The problem of antiques and the black market had finally been solved.
Moreover, with Han Chunming around, he could easily collect all kinds of antique calligraphy and paintings in the future, waiting for their value to double in the future.
In Xiangjiang City in the 21st century, a Chenghua Colored Cocktail Cup was sold for 240 million yuan at Sotheby's.
In this era, the common people had not even solved the basic problem of food and clothing. How could they have the mood to care about these things?
Many famous people's calligraphy and paintings were either used to cook pots or to cushion the corners of tables. They were even used as toilet paper.
Since that was the case, Zhang Hexuan might as well seize the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Zhang Hexuan's lips curled up. It was worth it! I hope you can get me more good items!”
In the evening, Zhang Hexuan got off work and rode his bike back to the courtyard house. Just as he reached the entrance, he bumped into Qin Huairu, who was squatting down and waiting for him to return.
"Zhang Hexuan, you're back?"
Zhang Hexuan looked at the nervous Qin Huairu and asked with a frown,""What's wrong? Is there anything?"
Qin Huairu said awkwardly," It's nothing, it's nothing. I went out to get some soy sauce and happened to bump into you." Oh, right, I heard that your cousin has been promoted to the deputy director of the canteen. Congratulations.”
Zhang Hexuan looked at her in confusion. It was my brother who got promoted, not me. Why aren't you congratulating him?”
"Did you take the wrong medicine?"
When Qin Huairu heard this, she realized that she had said the wrong thing out of nervousness.
"Can you tell me?" she asked carefully. Your friend from yesterday, the skinny and tanned one, what's his name?”
"What's wrong?" Zhang Hexuan glanced at her. Why did he ask? Is there anything?"
"No, I'm fine," Qin Huiru said in a panic. I just feel that he looks very much like a distant cousin of mine, so I'll ask you what his name is. Are you close?"
"Which alley does he live in? How old are you this year? Where do you work?"
Who was Zhang Hexuan? He was the smartest person in the city.
As a person who had lived two lives, his observation and analytical skills were far superior to ordinary people. Therefore, he could tell at a glance that Qin Huairu had feelings for Han Chunming.
Han Chunming had just jumped out from Cheng Jianjun's side. As his elder brother, how could Zhang Hexuan let him get involved with Qin Huairu again?
Moreover, Qin Huairu was not only the mother of three children, but she was also a widow.
She was already old, yet she still wanted to hook up with a twenty-year-old young man? Dream on!
Zhang Hexuan sneered." Don't think about it blindly. He's definitely not related to you. If he was, he would have been finished long ago." Make way and don't block the door. Can't you see that I can't enter?”
Zhang Hexuan pushed Qin Huairu aside and carried his bicycle into the courtyard.
At this moment, Qin Huairu was so angry that her eyes were spitting fire. Not only did she not manage to get his name, but she was also given a fierce push.
What kind of person was this!
At this time, Jia Zhangshi also came back from her walk. Seeing her daughter-in-law standing angrily at the door, she quickly asked.
"Aren't you going to be a bystander? Why are you standing here? Are you angry?"
"That Zhang Hexuan!" Qin Huiru complained. I bumped into him when I went out to buy soy sauce, so I took the initiative to greet him. In the end, he ignored me and even pushed me to the side!”
Jia Zhang-shi's face immediately darkened. You're taking the initiative?"
"He's just a street patrolman with nothing. He only gets thirty yuan a month. Is he worth our greeting?”
"Remember, the next time you meet him, even if he greets you, ignore him and don't take the initiative to greet him.”
Qin Huairu continued,"But…" "Silly Zhu was promoted to the deputy director of our factory's canteen and was also the first official in our courtyard. Zhang Hexuan is his cousin, so I thought I would say something nice when I met him.”
"What?"
Jia Zhangshi opened her mouth wide in surprise. He could actually be promoted? This was really strange! The sun has risen from the west!"
"Yes!" Qin Huairu nodded. Everyone in the courtyard is talking about him!"
Jia Zhang-shi was stunned for a moment, and then she immediately smiled."Qin Huairu, it's a good thing that Silly Zhu has been promoted! That's great. Our family's good days are coming soon! You just wait and see!"
Regarding the matter of Silly Pillar's promotion.
Liu Haizhong, the second uncle, had the biggest objection. He had wanted to be an official for half his life. He was about to retire, but he couldn't fulfill his dream.
Originally, he didn't have any officials around him, so he didn't feel any difference. However, he didn't expect that the most simple-minded idiot in the quad would now be an official. This made him very unhappy.
Although Silly Zhu was only the deputy director of the canteen, he was still in charge of more than ten people!
At the dining table, the second aunt scolded the old man.
"Sigh! You've wanted to be an official for half your life, but there's been no news. You're about to retire. Look, how old is Silly Zhu, but he's already the deputy director of the canteen, and his salary has increased quite a bit!”
His son, Liu Guangtian, also joined in the fun."Stop competing. Comparing people is infuriating. If you ask me, Silly Zhu is capable, but he does great things silently!”
"Silly Zhu looks stupid, but he's not stupid at all. He's smart! Who knew how many benefits he had given the leader behind his back?”
"My dad is so stingy that he can't even bear to give up an egg.”
Second Uncle was already furious. Now that the whole family was mocking him, it was as if oil was poured on the fire.
He slammed his chopsticks on the table." What are you arguing about? What's there to argue about?"”
"Isn't he just the deputy director of the canteen? What's so great about him? This is called being an official? I don't want it even if you give it to me. I don't like it!”
Second Uncle's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he felt like his eyeballs were about to pop out.
The family stared at each other, and no one dared to say anything else.
The second aunt also felt that she had been a little too harsh just now and immediately came out to smooth things over."Alright, alright, don't be angry. We're all family. We're saying this because we're fighting for justice for you. We don't have any intention of blaming you.”
"Look, how old is Silly Zhu? How many years has he been in the factory? Why can he be an official but you can't?”
"He's so stupid. Other than cooking, what else can he do?”
"Can I compare to you? You're a Level 7 fitter!"
Hearing this, Second Uncle finally felt better.
However, Buddhas fought for the time it took for an incense stick to burn, while humans fought for their breath. If even Silly Zhu could become an official, why couldn't he?
There were still a few years before retirement. Liu Haizhong had to be an official before retirement no matter what. He had to fulfill his dream of being a leader.
Otherwise, he would be kicking his feet in his old age. He would not be reconciled and would not be able to close his eyes.
At the same time, when the people in the courtyard found out that Silly Zhu had become the deputy director, their attitudes towards him changed 180 degrees.
Even when they greeted each other, they became especially enthusiastic. They kept calling him Deputy Director He and Chef He, which gave He Yuzhu goosebumps.
That night, Third Master actually took the initiative to visit He Yuzhu and congratulate him.
Even Zhang Hexuan, who was sitting at the side drinking tea, was surprised. This old fellow had always been one who would not wake up early if there was no benefit. For him to take the initiative to visit, there must be something fishy going on.
Zhang Hexuan put down his teacup and asked,"Third Master, you're still awake?" Why are you here so late at night?"
"You're here too. I saw that the lights in Silly Zhu's room were still on, so I came over to chat.”
Third Uncle looked at Silly Zhu and smiled,""Silly Zhu, congratulations! You're the most promising one in our quad! Actually, I've already seen through it!"
"He's only twenty-nine, and he's already an associate chief physician.”
"In my opinion, in less than two years, you can immediately become a deputy director. At that time, you will be a section-level cadre! Work hard, Third Uncle has high hopes for you!"
He Yuzhu laughed. I don't even dare to think about being a section-level cadre!”
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Hexuan.
Whether he could be promoted or not did not depend on him, but on Zhang Hexuan.
If Zhang Hexuan had informed the factory's leader, he would have become a full-time employee the next day, let alone two years.
"There's no need to be humble. You're especially outstanding!" Third Uncle chuckled. Your future is boundless!"
After saying those nice words, Third Uncle rubbed his hands and prepared to get to the point.
He smiled and said," Silly Zhu, you're now the deputy director of the canteen. You have special privileges in the canteen. You can bring any food you want in the future!" Look, when you bring it back, can you give Third Uncle some?”
"Let me have a taste of your Red Star Rolling Mill's dishes. What do you think?”
As soon as he said this, Zhang He spat out the mouthful of tea he had just drunk.
And try the taste of the vegetables in the factory? If you want to take advantage of me, just say it. Why talk so much nonsense?
He Yuzhu's expression was also very strange, but there was no need for Zhang Hexuan to explain this situation now. He knew how to deal with it.
He Yuzhu frowned." Third Master, I've indeed been promoted to the deputy director of the canteen. However, the factory has its own rules. I can't bring things back without permission, let alone share them with you."”
"Is this okay? If you really want to taste the food in our factory canteen, give me 30 cents a day and I won't take your food stamps. I'll bring them back for you. Third Uncle, can you do it?"
30 cents? Are you joking?
There were so many people in Yan Bugui's family, but their daily food expenses only added up to twenty-five cents.
30 cents to buy food from the factory canteen? Could the days not pass?
Third Uncle was unhappy." Silly Zhu, don't say such things to Third Uncle. I just want you to bring some back from the canteen and show me some respect." You brat, you're still pretending to be ignorant!”
"Aren't the canteen rules empty?”
"Look, you're the leader. If you want to take it, who dares to stop you? Besides, it's public property anyway. You don't have to pay for it. Just bring back all the leftovers from the canteen that day. Look, this way, you can save food. It's killing two birds with one stone!”
Before He Yuzhu could speak, Zhang Hexuan retorted,"Yan Bugui, Teacher Yan, to think that you're a teacher. I really didn't expect you to have such a bad mindset. How can you be a teacher?”
"You actually let my brother steal from the factory to show you respect?”
"If you weren't old, I would have put on a red armband and arrested you at the street office to deal with you seriously.”
Third Uncle was instantly dumbfounded.
Why did this Zhang Hexuan have to interfere in everything that had nothing to do with him? Are you done?
I took advantage of Silly Zhu, what did I do to him?
"Zhang Hexuan, I'm not talking to you. Don't interrupt!" Third Uncle said angrily.”
When He Yuzhu saw Third Master's stern tone towards Zhang Hexuan, he immediately slapped the table and said angrily,""What my brother wants is what I want. I won't help you steal the public grain! Don't even think about it!"
"Let's go. I don't welcome you here!”
Third Uncle was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He stood up shakily and pointed at He Yuzhu and Zhang Hexuan.""Okay, okay, remember what you said. Okay!”
"Silly Zhu, you've just become a leader, and you're already so cocky. Not only did you not help with such a small favor, but you're also very stubborn!”
"Previously, I was thinking of introducing our school's Teacher Ran to you, but in the end, you actually treated me like this? Dream on! That was the end of the introductions!”
"Let me tell you, you can wait to be beaten naked for the rest of your life! You deserve it!"
After saying that, Third Uncle flicked his sleeves and left angrily.
As soon as he left, He Yuzhu spat at the door."You old noob, how can I not know you? You even said that you wanted to introduce me to a partner. It's all nonsense! Would you still be so kind?"
"Aren't you just trying to take advantage of me? Do you think I don't know?"
He turned to look at Zhang Hexuan and said with a smile,""Brother, I was just imposing. How was it? It's okay, right?"
Zhang Hexuan smiled. It would be great if you could show such an imposing manner to Qin Huairu's family. It would mean that you have improved greatly.”
He Yuzhu giggled and did not say another word.
Because he knew that no matter how imposing he was, he would instantly be at his wit's end when Qin Huiru cried.
