Back to the past: Spring and Autumn Siheyuan

Chapter 10 Doubt

Li Heng was still thinking about the doorman Lao Zheng until he lay down on the bed after washing.

Could it be that this guy, like himself, just likes guns and collects them specially?
Who believes this?Anyway, he wouldn't believe it.

When he stole the gun by himself, the first thing he thought of was self-defense, and he didn't even think about storing it. He just felt safer with a gun by his side.

Besides, the guns on the troops are not allowed to be taken away when they leave, so if Lao Zheng has a gun in his hand, he must have come from a dirty place.

Tomorrow, he had to find a way to find out about this old boy. With such an untimely bomb beside him, Li Heng felt that he couldn't sleep well. Who knew what this guy wanted to do.

He didn't sleep well that night, he was always half dreaming and half awake.

This is also a habit he developed in his previous life. He always doubted everything in a case, and when he came across any clues, he must investigate to find out, otherwise he would not be able to eat and sleep.

It was precisely because of his spirit that he did not let go of any clues in the case, and that he became the leader of the serious crime team of the Public Security Bureau of the provincial capital when he was in his thirties.

I didn't expect this problem to be brought back after rebirth.

After waking up at six o'clock the next morning, he sat on the bed and thought so.

After getting up, he went out for a run as usual and had breakfast outside. After sitting in the office at eight o'clock, he glanced at the stationmaster Zhang who was sitting across from him and was reading the newspaper. From our unit?"

"Huh? He was at the recycle bin in Dongdan when he first started. After the recycle bin was merged with us in [-], he followed. As for when he came to Dongdan, I don't know. It seems that it was just liberated, what happened?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I want to ask him about someone. He also came back from the army. I just want to see if I know him. I'll go to the guard room and talk to him."

"Row"

Li Heng walked out of the office with the jar in his hand, and went straight to the guard room.

He couldn't let go if he didn't understand some things.

In the house, Lao Zheng was sitting on a chair, leaning his head against the wall, humming an unknown tune with his eyes closed, and opened his eyes only when he heard the sound.

"Yo, Er Heng, why don't you go to the back to help today?"

"The superior assigned me here. I have to be familiar with what we have to do here. I have been looking for a few days, but I can't find any treasures."

"Haha, if you want to find a baby, we really can't find it here. If you really want to find something good, you have to go to the trust store."

"What? What treasures are there in the store?" Li Heng's face was full of confusion.

Is it possible that antiques can still be sold in the store?Are we talking about the same thing?

"You don't know what the trust store sells?" Old Zheng was also stunned by his reaction, and asked in disbelief.

"What else can be sold in the store, shouldn't it be similar to a supply and marketing cooperative?"

"Haha... It seems that you really don't know, but it's no wonder that you have been in the army all these years, and it's normal to not know the place." Lao Zheng shook his head with a smile.

"Let me tell you, the things sold in this trust store are indeed similar to the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores, but what they sell are all new things, and what they sell are old ones."

"Old... old?" Li Heng's eyes widened.

"That's right, they're all old, and they don't just sell them, they also collect them, and sell them at the same time. There are all kinds of things."

"Oh, I probably understand. What you mean is that if ordinary people have something that they don't use for themselves, and the family is just short of money, they can sell it to a trust store for money, and the store will collect it. After entering, it will be placed on the counter and then sold, right?"

Li Heng nodded suddenly and said.

"That's how it is, so I said that there are treasures there, and everything is sold, only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that is not for sale."

"Now I understand!" Only then did he realize that he had searched in the wrong place for more than ten days.

I can't help but blame the film and television dramas of later generations for misleading him.

Those film and television works are those who collect tatters, such as official snuff bottles from the Qianlong Dynasty, or bowls for dogs, all from the Jiajing period.

It made him think that good things could be found in the junkyard.

He was also thinking blindly, if those people really received good things, could they send them to the waste station, and put them in their pockets quickly.

"Why, Erheng, are you still interested in those old objects?"

"Hey, I'm just playing around. Don't they all talk about gold in prosperous times, antiques and troubled times? Now that we're at peace, I wondered if those old objects would appreciate in value sooner or later, that's why...hehe"

Old Zheng nodded as soon as he heard it: "If you really want to play, you can go to the trust store to try your luck, but the premise is that you have to understand these things. I won’t tell you if it’s from the Ming Dynasty or from the Republic of China, the price you receive is the same, and the price you sell is also the same, so it’s not worth spending the same money to buy a piece from the Republic of China, right?”

"That's right, I'm really educated, thank you, Old Zheng."

"Hey, what are you taught? I don't understand these things, so I just said it casually."

What Li Heng was thinking at this time was not how to learn, what he was thinking was, I really don't know the truth, but I can buy all those things back, anyway, it doesn't cost much, so I don't believe in buying a hundred Nothing really.

But in a blink of an eye, he thought that it was the 50s, and it would take 90 years for those antiques to appreciate until the end of the 40s.

At that time, he will be an old helper, and it is really prepared for children, and he will not be able to enjoy it.

Thinking of this, he slammed his mouth in a dull way, and his heart to go to the trust store to sweep the goods suddenly faded a lot.

But this old Zheng knows a lot of things, and he is not at all like a big soldier in the army as he said.

He just casually said a baby, and he immediately thought that he was referring to an old object. This is not the reaction of ordinary people.

Now you go out and tell the common people that you want to find treasures, and see how many people can realize that what you are looking for are old objects.

The first reaction of most people is precious metals such as gold and silver jewelry, or gems and jade.

This old Zheng has a story. Of course, it is also possible that he is suspicious. He just saw a lot in the past.

But he couldn't let go of the matter of using gun oil alone.

But there was no movement from him, so let's observe slowly to see what he wants to do, and hope that he is really suspicious.

Li Heng was chatting with Old Zheng, but he kept hinting in his heart that he was thinking too much.
