Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

Chapter 246



Chapter 246

Coming out of Gu Zhang's office, Meng Haisheng borrowed a bicycle and headed straight to the antique street.

Chinese people have this advantage. No matter what kind of store they open, they like to gather together.

Meng Haisheng wanted to sell small yellow croakers. The most suitable place was this kind of gold and silver jewelry shop.

There were seven or eight shops of all sizes that made gold and silver jewelry on the antique street in Ninggang City.

In the afternoon, there were not many people in the antique market.

Meng Haisheng found the shop with the largest storefront.

He was afraid that the storefront was too small and he could not take out 20,000 yuan in cash.

"Master, how much is the price of gold today?"

Meng Haisheng looked at the old master who was a little sleepy behind the counter and asked with a smile.

"Today it is 85 per gram. Comrade, do you want to make any gold goods?"

"No, I want to sell small yellow croakers."

The old master who was a little sleepy just now had a bright look in his eyes.

He first glanced at the door and saw no one, then shouted, "Wangcai, come and see the counter."

"I'm here."

The voice of a young man came from the room, and a well-mannered young man came out soon.

"Comrade, let's talk in the back room."

Meng Haisheng followed the master to the back room, and saw a lot of jewelry making tools in the room.

"Comrade, what kind of small yellow croaker do you want?"

"From the Republic of China."

Meng Haisheng took the small yellow croaker out of his bag.

The master took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

"It's an old item. It's an antique if you keep it. You'll lose money if you sell it to me."

"Master, take it if you think it's suitable. I'm in a hurry to use the money."

Meng Haisheng thought, there are still many small yellow croakers from the Republic of China that are scattered around. Even if they are kept for another 50 years, they are still small yellow croakers and can't become antiques.

But people on the antique street see everything as antiques.

"Okay, since you want to sell it, I can buy it. The current gold price is 85, and I'll give you 81."

Meng Haisheng thought it was okay, so he agreed.

The old master said, "I have to cut the small yellow croaker apart when I inspect the goods. If it's fake, it won't be mine if it's destroyed. Let's make an agreement in advance."

"Go ahead. If it's fake, it's mine."

Although the old master thought the small yellow croaker was real, there were too many fakers, so he had to be careful.

The small yellow croaker was cut in the middle to see if there was any problem inside, and he also burned a section to ensure its authenticity.

All the gold was weighed on a small scale, and it was exactly 312.5 grams.

Meng Haisheng's impression of the old master improved a lot, at least he was honest.

"Comrade, wait a minute, I'll take the money now."

The old master was very happy to receive this good gold.

Soon, he brought two bundles of money over.

"Comrade, count them."

Meng Haisheng counted them one by one. This kind of transaction was risky and he had to be careful.

"Okay, master, the money is fine, I'm leaving."

"Okay, comrade, take care. You can find me if you have small yellow croakers."

Meng Haisheng smiled and didn't respond.

This was just a polite remark. From beginning to end, the old man didn't ask Meng Haisheng's last name. He actually knew that Meng Haisheng would probably not come again.

You have to be extra careful when selling things like small yellow croakers. If you are not careful, you will get into trouble.

Meng Haisheng came out of the gold shop and did not leave immediately. Instead, he wandered around the antique market for more than an hour. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he sold another piece of small yellow croaker.

As the sky gradually darkened, Meng Haisheng carried a large bag of money and rode his bicycle back to find Qu Dayong and the others.

The two stayed in Ninggang City for three days. They left only after the cram school was basically done. Meng Haisheng had nothing in his hands when he came, and when he left, he had more than 50,000 yuan in his hands.

After returning to the county, Meng Haisheng went to the bank to open a new passbook and deposited more than 50,000 yuan in it.

After selling TVs for 10 days, Meng Haisheng estimated that there should be a lot of money on the account of the store.

He went to the store specifically, asked Lang Chunhua, and took a look at the passbook. There was actually 130,000 yuan on the account.

He sold less than 300 TVs, but he actually got back most of his capital. It can be seen that the current TV business is simply a huge profit.

"Everyone, work hard these two days and repair a few more TVs. I will be away for a while in mid-April. If you encounter problems repairing TVs at that time, I may not be able to help."

"Haisheng, are you going to Hong Kong Island?"

"Yes, I only bought two cars of TVs last time, which feels a bit too little. I am raising some money now, and I hope to buy more next time."

"Brother Daniu, do you want to go to Hong Kong Island again? You can come with me again."

"Forget it, there is nothing special about Hong Kong Island except food."

Meng Daniu felt uncomfortable when he thought of Hong Kong Island. He felt more comfortable in Quyang County.

"If you don't go, I will find someone else to go this time.”

“Whatever you want.”

This time Meng Haisheng didn’t plan to bring Qu Dayong and Meng Daniu. He planned to bring only Meng Xiaomi.

When Meng Xiaomi was mentioned, Meng Haisheng couldn’t help but frown. He had been back from Hong Kong Island for several days, but he hadn’t seen Meng Xiaomi come to see him.

Did something happen to him?

The next day, Meng Haisheng used the excuse of going home to see the rabbit farm and asked about Meng Xiaomi.

“Haisheng, don’t you know? Meng Xiaomi’s father went crazy and slashed Meng Xiaomi’s mother with a knife at his grandmother’s house. I heard that the injury was so serious that even the bones were exposed.”

Hearing this, Meng Haisheng’s heart tightened, “Is Meng Xiaomi in the county hospital now?”

“His father was arrested by the police. His grandmother’s family refused to pay. I heard that Meng Xiaomi just took his mother to the hospital for a simple treatment, and didn’t even have stitches. She should be at their home now.”

“I’ll go see Xiaomi. "

He and Meng Xiaomi grew up together and had a close relationship, almost like brothers. But because he had been addicted to playing cards in the past two years, he had less contact with Meng Xiaomi, which made him feel a little guilty.

On the way to Meng Xiaomi's house, Meng Haisheng suddenly recalled the days when they went to the mountains to pick bird eggs together in the summer when they were young. Those days were really carefree.

But since when did his childhood playmates gradually disappear from his life.
