Chapter 681 Goodbye Xiaojun
"We will take your feedback seriously. Recently, many small workshop owners have treated their workers harshly. We absolutely do not allow this kind of exploitation of others. After many years, this bad habit of exploiting others still exists. You must be sincere and ask your friends not to have any psychological burden, we will investigate this matter carefully, and we will treat it equally regardless of whether it is a local or a foreigner."

The policeman who received Bai Meixi was very sensible and immediately sent people to the small workshop to inquire. Bai Meixi was afraid of scaring Xiaoyan, so he did not tell her that he called the police.

She planned to take advantage of this time to visit Xiaojun first, and then come over to ask for news in the evening.

The address of Xiaojun's new home was not difficult to find. He followed Bai Meixi's suggestion and bought a small courtyard near the train station. However, this small courtyard was not a house facing the street. All the doors opened in the courtyard, and there were only two doors. A house with a small window looking out onto the street is not conducive to a restaurant business.

"Is anyone here?" Bai Meixi opened the door to the yard. The yard was much larger than it looked from the outside, but the ground was filled with various newspapers and waste papers, weighing hundreds of kilograms. The courtyard became overcrowded.

However, Bai Meixi still saw that this was a courtyard with three main rooms, plus the two side rooms next to it, there were a total of five habitable houses, which was much better than Granny Liang's previous living environment.

"Sister, you're back! I was afraid you wouldn't find it here!" Xiaojun happened to be at home. He came out of the house as soon as he heard Bai Meixi's voice. He enthusiastically let Bai Meixi into the house. Here, let her take a good look at her recent achievements.

"Why aren't Granny Liang at home?" Bai Meixi found that the things in Granny Liang's house were much better than before, especially the furniture in the house, which was actually made of red sandalwood and looked like the style of the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. This set of furniture It's worth a lot of money.

"Grandma Liang went to my aunt's house. It's not far from my aunt's house. The two of them are just good company." Xiaojun poured a cup of tea for Bai Meixi. He has grown a lot in the past two months. Bai Meixi was impressed by the way she dealt with people.

The tea in the cup is black tea, and the taste is no worse than what Bai Meixi collected from the herdsmen. It seems that Xiaojun has made a lot of money in the past two months, and his quality of life has improved a lot.

"Why didn't you buy a house facing the street? Didn't I tell you to sell a house facing the street to start a business?" Bai Meixi saw that Xiaojun was living a good life now, but if this house faced the street, it would be inevitable for him. Another boost.

"Sister, I originally wanted to learn cooking from my neighbor, but the textile factory took over our house and used it as a dormitory, and the neighbors all moved away. It's not easy to learn to cook, and it's impossible to make money right away with my skills. , I bought this small yard. It’s convenient to put waste products here. Now many people know that my price for collecting waste paper is higher than others, and they often come to me. What’s more, this yard has great benefits. Sister, look at this set of furniture. It’s also a gift for buying a house.”

Xiaojun has his own business experience. In addition to the quietness of this small yard, he originally fell in love with this set of furniture. Although he didn't know much about antiques, he also knew that this set of furniture was old and had at least several decades of history. Bai Meixi told him about some old furniture. He had a hunch at that time that this set of furniture might be worth more than the house.

"Your hunch is right. This is indeed an old thing from the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, and the materials are also very good. However, you have to preserve it well. If it is burned, it will leave scars and it will be worthless."

Bai Meixi confirmed Xiaojun's vision. Rosewood is inherently the most valuable, and even modern furniture will be priceless in the future. What's more, Qing Dynasty furniture has many carved patterns, and its value is immeasurable.

"I know, sister, I usually use this old table at home, and I don't use these good furniture to put things on." Xiaojun pointed to the wooden table at the door, which he got from that old house. Even the boxes where things are usually stored are old and have not damaged anything here.He was very grateful to Bai Meixi for letting him buy a house. This time the textile factory took back the house to use as a dormitory, but it did not compensate for the same area or location. Many people were only allocated remote and small attics, but There is no choice but to live in order to survive.

If Bai Meixi hadn't asked them to buy a house, he and Granny Liang would only be allocated a basement, and they wouldn't have the good life they have now.

Bai Meixi knows that the current allocation of houses mainly depends on the efficiency of the factory. If the efficiency of the factory is not good, naturally it will not be allocated to a good place. Some people in Puhai can only live in basements all their lives and live a very difficult life. Xiaojun Xiao Being able to have such a nice courtyard at such a young age is already considered a wealthy person in this city.

"Is Xiaojun here? I was introduced here by Uncle Liu." A man's voice sounded at the door of the courtyard. The sound he knocked on the door was strange, one long and three short.

"Sister, wait a minute, I have business coming." Xiaojun's expression was a little mysterious. He put his finger on his lips and made a quiet movement. Bai Meixi immediately understood this movement.

Xiaojun's waste paper business was superficial, but in fact it was a business of collecting antiques. This man's methods were so mysterious, he must have something good to offer.

The door to the courtyard opened, and a man in his 50s or [-]s walked into the house with Xiaojun. After seeing Bai Meixi, the man was obviously stunned and even hid the box in his hand behind his back.

"This is one of our own. If you have any good things, bring them out. I, my sister, can also estimate the price." Xiaojun asked the man to let down his guard. Bai Meixi was his master and had a more unique vision than him.

"It turns out that this person is also an expert. I didn't expect it." The man took out the box in his hand. What he brought was a set of Hu pens. The pen holders were quite old.

"This is an old thing passed down from my family. It's not expensive. I'll sell it for 10 yuan a piece. If I wasn't in a hurry for money, I wouldn't be willing to sell it."

The old man pretended to be mysterious and talked about the history of this set of pens. Before Bai Meixi could say anything, Xiaojun closed the box and threw the box of pens to the man.

"Don't say it's 10 yuan a piece, even if it's 10 yuan a box, I don't want it. The barrel of the pen is cracked. No one wants it no matter where I send it in such poor condition!" Xiaojun has good eyesight and quick decision-making. From that When the man opened the box, he saw the cracks on the pen, and there was no need to look at other things.

This kind of vision makes Bai Meixi very happy. She feels that Xiaojun is really a teachable child and will soon be better than his master.
