I was the queen of the sea in the 80s

Chapter 69 Second-Hand Watch Shops

Jiang Zhenzhen held Gao Yun's hand, looked straight into her eyes, and said, "Sister, can you help me?"

"Of course, sister Zhenzhen's business is my business." Gao Yun replied without thinking.

"Actually, in fact, I suspect that Chen Xiangjun found another good friend at school."

Jiang Zhenzhen's words were like the stone she threw into the water just now, causing huge ripples in Gao Yun's place, and she exclaimed: "What?"

Jiang Zhenzhen had no way to explain to Gao Yun that she only found out when she was reborn, so she said: "My family lives very close to Chen Xiangjun's family. I once heard her mother say that his son is excellent. What kind of factory is there in the school?" The daughter of the eldest family pursued him... His mother's words cannot be trusted, but I guess there should be such a girl in the school who is really close to Chen Xiangjun."

"No wonder, no wonder!" Gao Yun said, "No wonder this Chen Xiangjun is so unscrupulous, he has already found his next home! Sister Zhenzhen, do you know who it is?"

Jiang Zhenzhen shook her head: "I don't know...Gao Yun, can you help me find out?"

Gao Yun agreed straight away: "No problem!"

Later, in order to thank Gao Yun for her enthusiastic help, Jiang Zhenzhen stuffed all the dried salted fish into Gao Yun's hands. Gao Yun didn't want it at first, but Jiang Zhenzhen insisted on giving it, saying: "Dried salted fish is worthless. It’s made at home, you take it back and share it with your roommates, let them taste my mother’s handicraft.”

After Gao Yun refused twice more, she finally accepted the dried salted fish.

Afterwards, Jiang Zhenzhen told Gao Yun that she still had something to do and needed to stay in Dongshi. She would live in a guest house for the next few days and let Gao Yun come and play with her when she was free. As for Chen Xiangjun's empathy, she was not in a hurry and let Gao Yun Yun just ask slowly.

Dongshi is much more developed than the newly developed Pengcheng. The neighborhood planning here is more reasonable, with wide roads and cars running on the wide roads.It was during this period that people still had the awareness to abide by traffic rules. Many people drove recklessly and recklessly, and many pedestrians crossed the road without looking at the cars, so accidents were easy to happen.

When Jiang Zhenzhen was crossing the road, she had to look left and right several times, and only after she was sure it was safe did she walk over with confidence.

The opposite is a commercial street with shops on both sides of the road. Jiang Zhenzhen's goal is a second-hand watch shop.

In this era, the materials are not abundant enough. Generally, the watch will not be replaced if it is worn out. It will be repaired and continued to be used. If it is really broken and cannot be used, the watch will be sold to a second-hand watch shop.A watch shop master with good craftsmanship can take parts from different bad watches and piece them together, put together a watch that can move normally and sell it, so as to make money back.

Although Jiang Zhenzhen bought a new unused watch from Xingang, she felt that it was a second-hand watch that had passed her own hands, so she thought about going to a second-hand watch shop to see if they would accept it.

There is a wind chime at the entrance of the watch shop, which will jingle when the door is opened. The old master sitting at the counter and wearing reading glasses is concentrating on studying the clock in his hand, as if he has not noticed Jiang Zhenzhen's arrival.

Jiang Zhenzhen took a look at the shop after entering the door. The decoration here seems to have passed through the ages, with a taste of the Republic of China period.The first thing that catches the eye is a world clock wall. There are several clocks hanging on the wall. The capital names of different countries are marked under each clock. Of course, the clock in the middle shows the time in Beijing.

On the left hand side of Jiang Zhenzhen is a bogu rack, on which there are several complicated desk clocks, but the pointer inside has not rotated, I don’t know if it is broken or the battery is not connected, oh no, the reason for the winding.

On the right is a glass counter, in which there are some watches of different styles. Behind the counter is a workbench, and an old master with gray hair is working behind the counter.

Jiang Zhenzhen came to the counter and said, "Master, please excuse me."

The old master stopped what he was doing, turned his head, slightly pulled the reading glasses to the tip of his nose, and raised his eyelids to look at Jiang Zhenzhen.

"Sell a watch or buy a watch?"

Jiang Zhenzhen said, "Sell watches."

The old master became interested, he put down what he was doing, turned around and said, "Take a look."

Jiang Zhenzhen took an electronic watch out of her bag and laid it flat on the counter.

A look of disappointment flashed across the eyes of the old master, and he said in a rather disgusted tone, "Electronic watch."

"Yes, it's a digital watch." But what does your expression mean?Still disgusted?This is an electronic watch. The electronic watch has not yet emerged in the domestic market. Why do you dislike it so much?
Jiang Zhenzhen pursed her lips, she felt that she was going to be disappointed.

The old master picked up the watch and fiddled with it twice: "It's still fine, are you going to sell it?"

"Yes." Jiang Zhenzhen asked, "What price can you offer?"

The master fiddled with it a few more times, and then said a number.

This price is not high, just a little higher than what Jiang Zhenzhen paid for it in Xingang, not counting the exchange rate, Hong Kong dollars are more expensive than Chinese dollars!
"Can't it be higher?" Jiang Zhenzhen asked.

The master put down the watch, shook his head and said, "Although your watch is very new, you are selling it as a second-hand watch, and the price of second-hand watches is the same."

Jiang Zhenzhen didn't want to talk about it any more, she felt that the old master didn't have the sincerity to accept the watches. Although they were all second-hand watches, her watches were new and never used.Moreover, young people in the domestic market are particularly fond of this kind of electronic watch, and the price is very high. You must know that she sold it to Sun Fawei for 50 yuan before.

"Then I won't sell it." Jiang Zhenzhen put away the watch, at worst, she went to several university campuses, believing that the young people in the campuses would be willing to give her a suitable price, but it was just a little troublesome and a little bit of a hassle.

After that, Jiang Zhenzhen went to a second-hand watch shop, but unfortunately, she still didn't talk about the price that satisfied her.

After coming out of the second-hand watch shop, Jiang Zhenzhen was a little bit unwilling to give up. She still wanted to try to find a watch shop to sell, and if she could reach a long-term cooperation with the shop here, it would be considered a stable source of income.

At this moment, she saw another watch shop, which was very small and didn't specialize in second-hand.With the mentality of giving it a try, she entered this shop.

This is a state-run watch shop. Although the decoration is simple, it is simple and bright. It not only has domestic watches and watches, but also many imported watches and clocks.There is only one staff member in the store, a young gay man who is quietly flipping through novels behind the counter.Probably because he was too focused, the sound of Jiang Zhenzhen approaching startled him and gave him a shock.
