1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 129 Changling Township

More than a month has passed since the Spring Festival, and the weather has only gotten slightly warmer. The windless sunny days are still very pleasant.

"Have you packed up yet?"

"There's no need for you to run away. Why are you so anxious? My pair of pigeons haven't been fed yet?"

The two people who were talking to each other were Luo Tao and Wang Shixiang, who lived in a deep house compound in Fangjiayuan Hutong, Dongcheng.

This mansion was originally the ancestral property of Shixiang's hometown, but later on, there are many houses in the mansion. Mr. Wang lives in the two rooms at the east end of the inner courtyard, and the other rooms have been occupied by outsiders. The room can be described in eight words: the house is short, deep, damp and cold.

This is the worst place in the whole hospital. There are only two rooms and most of the space is taken up by some unwanted furniture.

In such a living environment, the two gentlemen still have infinite love for life, face life situations optimistically and do what they like.

He can now raise pigeons, fight crickets, and grow gourds, but he doesn't have the conditions to raise eagles. There is only one corridor in the house that can still accommodate people.

In autumn, we fight crickets, in winter we cuddle with chirping insects, eagles chase rabbits, and dogs hunt badgers.

There is none of the above that Mr. Shixiang has never played before. He is not called the number one player in the capital for nothing.

"What kind of pigeons are you old couple? They grow fat enough."

Luo Tao looked harmless to humans and animals, and commented on the pair of pigeons in the cage.

"Hey, you kid, stay here while you have nothing to do. I tell you to stop trying to take advantage of me."

The old man fed the pigeons carefully. Listening to Luo Tao's words, it was not difficult to hear another meaning, and he couldn't help but give a warning.

Don't accidentally get it into the dog's belly.

"I see what you always said, I can be such a person just by looking at you. Please give me some time to tell me!"

If you eat these pigeons, can you still be a human being?Even if you are addicted to talking, you still need to learn if you have the opportunity.

"I have time to improve your knowledge today. Do you know what this is called?"

Mr. Shixiang put down his work and acted like an expert.

"Isn't it just a pigeon? What else can it be called?"

"Ahem, I asked in vain. There is a special name for this thing. It is called an ornamental pigeon, which is also called a watch pigeon. There is a lot of knowledge in this."

"You always tell me well."

"Haha, how about a meal? You treat me to a meal and I will teach you the tricks. Neither of us will suffer."

Well, considering our friendship, a meal is not worth much.

"Okay, you can pick whatever you want, but when it comes to our ugly talk, you can't coax a child to play. You'll beat me up with your random nonsense."

"You kid, how did you learn such ruffianism?"

Are you angry?We have become well-established intellectuals a few years ago, and the novels we write have won awards.

"You'd better talk about this pigeon!"

"This pair of pigeons are the best of the purple jade-winged pigeons. They are called purple bright-winged pigeons. Look at their feathers. They are purple with dark brown, and the color on their beaks is also brown."

"Oh, what are purple jade wings?"

"The purple jade wings change from black to purple, but the white feathers on both wings remain the same. They are purple jade wings. There is also a kind called black jade wings."

"Oh, you are the only one who can master this knowledge by playing this game all the time."

"Hey, you kid, you are just embarrassing me. What knowledge do you have? I just love to play..." The two of them were chatting when they saw a spirited young man come in.

"Brother, Mr. Wang, you two can't go away, it's already noon."

"What's the rush? It's not like I'm leaving today and coming back tomorrow."

"Boy Hou, can you drive?"

"Mr. Wang, it's up to you to look down on people. I have been practicing for several months and I have obtained the certificate."

Listening to what he said, Mr. Shixiang looked unbelieving.

"Don't look like that! You've seen it before. This is the red stamp of the police."

As soon as I took out the little red notebook, I realized how impressive this guy was. Apart from public drivers, very few people can have a driver's license these days.

This thing is not something that can be obtained casually like in later generations. This is not possible if you don’t have money and no one.

Although Hou Ming has never touched a car, he has a feel for cars. After two months of training, he dared to hit the road. I heard that he drove well but was a bit slow.

He, Liu Lang, and the others didn't know where they found out about a driving school called Beijing Automobile Technical School. From the name, it was an "institution of higher learning" and it had been recruiting students for the general public since [-].

Through Huang Xingguo's relationship, they sneaked in. The semester lasted for more than half a year, and the tuition fee was even more than 1000 yuan.

Now, doesn’t an ordinary worker only earn about fifty yuan a month?Getting a driver's license is quite a luxury, and to put it bluntly, it's a waste of money.

Fortunately, a few of them didn't spend so much money in vain, and they have their driver's licenses in their hands. However, compared with the current old drivers, a few of them are cripples who can only drive but can't repair.

Which veteran driver these days doesn’t know how to perform daily car maintenance? Nowadays, when taking the driver’s license test, each student will be given a thick book on mechanical principles. You will have to spend a long time learning car maintenance technology first, and only after you have mastered it can you carry out the maintenance work. Driving theory as well as practical driving learning.

Fortunately, these guys were not short of money and jumped directly to learn driving theory and practical operations.

"It's okay. It can be regarded as a certificate to work." Mr. Shixiang took it and looked at it. He handed it back to him without any fraud.

Luo Tao and Shi Xiang are going on a long trip today. They had discussed this trip for several days years ago.

I used to go shopping in the Forty-Nine Cities, and there were so many good things, but I couldn't help but criticize them.

The people in Xiangjiang are like buying cabbage, accepting everything whether it is true or false, and foreigners are also so skillful.

Even Wang Yu, the stupid young man, has smelled the money. These days, his Buddha Buddha frequently appears in major junkyards and streets.

I don't know where this grandson got the financial resources. He only buys but doesn't sell. I don't know if he wants to be a collector. Luo Tao has seen this guy's face and doesn't believe he has such a hobby.

Others have taken action, so I can’t just watch!Fortunately, I had someone to take care of both black and white. I received more than a thousand pieces of antiques in just two months, but it only cost tens of thousands.

To be honest, only a hundred or so of them have collection value, and the others can only be regarded as old objects without much value.

The small amount of tens of thousands spent was mostly caused by Wang Yu's grandson, who actually found someone to drive up the price. Luo Tao himself was helpless, otherwise how could he suffer this loss, so he had to buy it at a high price first.

The antique shop he visited in the alley is now a lot more lively, with more and more fakes, and the crowd in the morning market is also a lot more lively.

This debt can only be settled slowly. The king fish is just a small fish, and the financial backer behind him is what Luo Tao wants to meet.

They planned to dig out the old house together. Ma Weidu was also going, but unfortunately he was arrested by the leader these days and failed to make it, so Luo Tao had no choice but to go with Shi Xianglao and Hou Ming.

Digging out an old house is full of excitement and thrills. Luo Tao is a novice at this. Although he has experience in going to the countryside to collect things, it can't be compared to this. Fortunately, Mr. Shixiang is at the helm. His experience in the world of martial arts means he has a wide range of knowledge.

Three people can handle anything, and luckily it's not too far away. The Changling Commune in Changping, the capital, should now be called Changling Township.
