Chapter 221

Qiu Mei was waiting by the side holding the weight, and Qiu He gathered all the useful books he found together and hugged them with difficulty.

Song Qishan turned around boredly, but he really found something good, and excitedly showed off in front of Qiu Mei.

"Look what I found."

It was a radio.

Qiu Mei raised her eyebrows, "Is anyone willing to throw this away?"

"It's broken!" Song Qishan said proudly: "But I know a craftsman who specializes in repairing this thing, and it will definitely be repaired when I get it back."

At this moment Qiu He came over, only glanced at it and whispered: "Brother Song, you should put it back."

Song Qishan wondered, "Why?"

"It must not be repairable." Qiu He looked at the almost intact appearance of the radio, "There are so many talented people in the provincial capital, this thing should have been picked up a long time ago, and it can still stay here, there must be something wrong .”

Seeing that Song Qishan still didn't believe it, Qiu He told him another classic story of "Plum Trees by the Road".

A child prodigy named Wang Rong was playing with his children on the side of the road when he was seven years old. He saw a plum tree with many plums on it, and the branches were all broken.

The children rushed to pick the plums, but Wang Rong didn't move. Someone asked him why he didn't pick the plums. Wang Rong replied, "This tree grows by the roadside. There are so many plums. It must be bitter plums."

When the partners tasted it, it was really bitter and astringent.

Song Qishan looked at the radio in his hand after listening, his face turned pale for a while.

"Huh? Is this thing really bad to repair?"

The old man, who was leaning on the recliner and dozed off, opened his eyes at some point and stared at Qiu He with great interest.

"This young man is very knowledgeable." The old man nodded towards Song Qishan with his chin, "You should not take this thing after listening to people's advice to eat enough. Let me tell you the truth, four or five people have already bought this thing back It’s gone, and it’s sold back to the scrap yard because it can’t be repaired.”

Of course, when you sell it, you will definitely not be able to sell it for any price, and you can only recover a little loss.

The old man made a lot of money by relying on this thing, and every time he deliberately placed it in the most conspicuous position.

I didn't expect someone to talk about it today, and I opened the skylight to speak out.

Song Qishan put the radio back to its original place in an embarrassing manner, feeling embarrassed.

It can be seen that Qiu He is several years younger than himself, but he is a tough guy.

Qiu Mei comforted him, "Don't compare yourself with my brother, most people can't compare, let alone you."

Song Qishan curled his lips, as usual, he was not comforted at all.

"Sister, I have found my things."

Qiu He put a stack of books on the table in front of the old man, and the old man weighed it.

"Ten pounds."

Qiu He raised his eyebrows. These things were at least 20 kilograms, and this person actually underestimated himself so much.

The old man glanced at Qiu He, "Young people read more books, and they will not suffer any time."

Song Qishan always felt that these words seemed to imply something, and his face was hot.

In fact, the old man is too lazy to talk to him. There are enough fools in this world, and there are many who think they are smart, but there are not many who are really smart.

Qiu Mei held the weight in her hand, "Add this together to calculate the money."

The old man wondered, "Why do you buy a weight alone and go home, or I will find you a beam?"

"No need, the children want it."

The sky was dark, and the old man didn't pay much attention to the way Qiu Mei picked up the weight. He estimated that it weighed at most two kilograms.

"This thing is not worth much, just use it as an addition to these books."

The total sum is only a little over four yuan, which is much less than Qiu Mei imagined.

Song Qishan helped Qiu He carry half of the books, and the group returned to the guest house.

Qiu Mei rinsed the weight and was about to show it to her sister when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Why is the weight on the label only two kilograms?"

Is a two-kilogram weight so heavy?Her strength has diminished.
