God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 1470 Lighter of the [-]th Century
Yu Mingxiu let out a long breath of relief, and said with a warm smile, "Thank you, I really have to thank you very much, otherwise I might not really have the confidence to get this big job."

"Thank you so much, cook two more bowls of oily noodles for me when you have time," Xu Jingxing said with a smile, "The chili powder in your oily noodles is very fragrant, I like it very much."

"Really? You can come and eat anytime," Yu Mingxiu said happily, "I'll give you the recipe of chili powder later."

"No, don't give it to me. I'm not interested in taking all the good things in the world for myself. It's better to keep them in mind."

"Okay." Yu Mingxiu nodded with half-happiness and half-regret, pursing her thin lips, "Then we'll talk about it later, and I'll help you with the decoration."

"Well, I won't go out these few days. If there is a situation, call me directly, or go to the courtyard to find me."

"Hee hee, I won't be polite to you," Yu Mingxiu said, and suddenly slapped his forehead, "By the way, the Lian family compound is preparing to build a foundation. Would you like to go over and have a look?"

"So fast?"

"It's the same as when you built your courtyard with two shifts of workers working together."

"Then I'll go there in the afternoon."

"See you in the afternoon."

After Mingxiu left, Xu Jingxing moved the small objects brought back yesterday to the car and brought them back to the courtyard. These small objects are small but delicate and worth a lot of money. If someone sees them, they can touch them at a time. Take several pieces, and you may not find them missing for a long time without looking carefully, so it is better to bring them back to the courtyard when you need to reinstall them here.

Even though he is rich, he is also very generous, whether it is Ye Qing or Yu Mingxiu, he just picks up a set and gives it away, regardless of the value.

But giving someone away and being picked up by someone are two different things.

He can send things worth tens of thousands of 10,000+ yuan as souvenirs, but he will never allow anyone to take even a brick without his consent.

When they returned to the courtyard, Cai Xiaozhi was practicing, Li Lingyu was working, and Zheng Sijin was cleaning.

Seeing Zheng Sijin, he raised his eyebrows: "You came back so early?"

Zheng Sijin quickly said: "Everything is fine at home, there is nothing else, just take a look."

"Let's relax. Are you not tired of serving me carefully these days?"

"Not tired," Zheng Sijin subconsciously straightened her back and replied loudly.

"Hush—" Xu Jingxing hurriedly stopped Zheng Sijin's behavior, but he was a little bit dumbfounded.

Did it scare this woman too much?

This all forms a conditioned reflex.

When answering questions, his voice is louder than that of a soldier.

People would think that I have some special hobbies.

For women, it's better to be softer. This habit of puffing out your chest and tucking in your belly and answering questions loudly must be changed.

Oh, the habit of keeping your chest up and your stomach in can be kept.

This pose is very energetic and shows your figure.

Seductive.

But after letting this woman go home for two days, her mental state seemed to be much better, and even the hostility that she had been feeling before had disappeared.

Not only that, but the sense of intimacy is even more obvious.

Is it...

"Is your grandfather okay?"

Zheng Sijin nodded quickly: "Okay, I can already stroll around the yard, and even punch a set when I feel refreshed."

Yo, the old man's vitality is tenacious enough.

As expected of a martial arts practitioner, his background is really good.

If it were an ordinary person who hit me a few times, even with spiritual energy and physical nourishment, it would be impossible to get better so quickly.

What's more, the old man is so old.

Yes.

I thought that the old man Zheng Changfeng would spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, so he was ready for a protracted battle with Zheng Sijin, but it ended with a happy ending.

This is not very challenging.

But that's okay, it's like exchanging a pendant for a handy personal assistant.

An assistant in this state is more reassuring to use.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand at Zheng Sijin: "It's almost dinner time, let's cook."

"it is good."

"Wait, first move the odds and ends in my car to the warehouse."

"it is good."

"Be careful."

"it is good."

Repeater, this is it?

Xu Jingxing was powerless to complain, and took an old-fashioned lighter that he also bought from Zhou Yuxiu to the workshop, greeted his apprentice Li Lingyu, opened the live broadcast room, and greeted the audience who rushed in instantly: "Long time no see, I'm taking a chance so that you don't think I'm a missing person, and you don't have to go to Nana's live broadcast room to post missing person notices every day."

"Fuck, this is God Xu."

"It's a real person, and it's finally on the air."

"Shenlong can't see the end, Brother Nana, do you know what this idiom means?"

"God Xu, what do you think of us? You have been hiding for several days. It's too much. Let me wait until I can't see it."

"God Xu, I hope that you will become a husband-wife stone. Why don't you draw a big prize?"

"The legendary uncle finally appeared. Do you want to draw a lottery? Give out red envelopes? Or do you want to show off your unique skills?"

Xu Jingxing has been fishing for three days and posting on the Internet for two days, but he is still able to maintain such a high popularity, which is considered unique in the live broadcast industry. The loyalty of the viewers in his live broadcast room is probably the highest in the entire network.

No way, he is too good at drawing prizes.

And all the draws are big prizes. Once you win, you don't have to work for several months.

Even the cheapest prize is a good thing like high-quality jade powder, which can be encountered but not sought after.

Coupled with the high quality of his live broadcast, the live broadcast style is very real, not artificial, and he will not mess around to please the audience, so it is not incomprehensible to attract such a large number of highly loyal audience.

In addition, his live broadcast style and content are not easy to imitate. Among other things, his live broadcast environment alone is beyond the reach of most anchors. He can't buy all his wealth, not to mention that he can display a lot of high-quality jade materials and jade articles casually.

So even if it's just to watch these rare scenes that are not usually seen, the audience on his side don't mind waiting a little longer.

And although Xu Jingxing couldn't go online every day like those full-time anchors, but when he was free, he would try his best to make a fuss, even if it was just to say a few words.

I happened to come across a fun little object today, and I can show it to those netizens who post "missing notices" all over the Internet every day.

In fact, it wasn't anything very valuable, it was just the old-fashioned lighter in his hand.

This lighter was stuck in a cabinet, and that cabinet had been stored in Zhou Yuxiu's house for more than ten years, but Zhou Yuxiu hadn't found the lighter, and he found it when he was checking things out in his own villa.

This old-fashioned lighter is about the size of a palm and has the shape of a pistol. It has been rusted to the point where it cannot be used at all, and the trigger-shaped ignition mechanism is so rusted that it cannot be seen at all. When Xu Jingxing discovered the lighter, the lighter was completely rusted together with a copper component of the cabinet. , It took a little effort to take it off.

However, the shape of this lighter is really interesting and simple, and only one layer of rust comes from the lighter, and the rest is mostly dust and messy metal debris, silk, cotton, hair, wood chips and other impurities. Judging from the degree of clutter, it is conservatively estimated that this lighter has been in that cabinet for more than 100 years.

Originally, he wanted to throw it away, but after breaking off one of the rusty articles, he found that the body of the lighter was still intact. If he could clean it carefully, it should still be usable.

So this lighter was very lucky to stay.

Then he decided to broadcast the process of cleaning and restoring the old lighter to the audience.

This kind of live broadcast content is probably unique in the live broadcast industry.

I believe it can make up to a certain extent for his apology to the fans as an unemployed anchor.

As for how to fix it, he has no idea for the time being, but the live broadcast is all about the process, maybe the fans can give him some good suggestions.

So he took the rusty lighter like an iron lump just dug out of the soil and showed it to the camera: "This is a little thing I just picked up. It's very interesting, although it's not worth much. But it’s a pity to throw it away, so I decided to clean it up and repair it again to see if it can be used again. Guess what it is. If you guess correctly, you will get a prize and it will be displayed for five seconds.”

"Hahaha, someone actually guessed it right and gave a verbal reward. That's right, this is a lighter, but it's not an ordinary lighter, but an old-fashioned lighter with a history of at least 100 years. I bought it from an eighteenth-century I found it in a gold-encrusted oak cabinet, if it can be repaired, it should be quite suitable for lighting mosquito coils."

As soon as he said this, a small climax erupted in the bullet screen.

"Damn it, using an antique more than 100 years old to light a mosquito-repellent incense, this is going to break through the sky!"

"Terrible."

"Is this the life of a rich man?"

"Can I say that the picture is intoxicating just thinking about it? If it can be matched with a European-style room and decoration, the atmosphere will rise immediately."

"Xu Shen is Xu Shen. This way of thinking is different. I was thinking about how much an antique lighter over 100 years ago is worth, but what you thought was to use it to light mosquito coils."

"Brother Nana, I am a mosquito coil, come and light me, if you can be lit by such a lighter, you will die without regret!"

"Brother, brother, ordinary mosquito coils may not be suitable for this lighter. If you go to the auction market and look around, there may be mosquito coils from the [-]th century for sale, which will be more suitable."

"I have nothing to say."

"Xu Shen's pretense is simply suffocating!"

"The wife is too tall."

"I have a hunch that Xu Shen's live broadcast will take off again."

Xu Jingxing didn't expect that such a casual sentence would attract so many words, and he was really dumbfounded for a while.

But if you think about it carefully, this is indeed a bit exaggerated.

If it was him three years ago, when he came across such a lighter, he would only think about how much it was worth and where to sell it for the highest price, but now he only thinks about how to use it.

No matter how ordinary this lighter is, it has a history of more than 100 years. If you really want to sell it, it shouldn't be a problem to sell it for [-] to [-].

Using this thing to light mosquito coils is indeed a bit of a pretense.

But my intention is really not to pretend.

I'm really just saying that casually, so don't take it seriously.

Whoever believes is stupid.

Who still uses mosquito coils to repel mosquitoes these days?

Is it all sandalwood or incense?

If it doesn't work, there is a life assistant here, wouldn't it be nice to ask her to take an electric mosquito swatter to slap mosquitoes?It's pure natural, pollution-free and very eye-catching, what kind of mosquito-repellent incense is used to smoke it.

Besides, can mosquitoes get in a house that costs so much money to repair?Occasionally, one or two will get lost in the huge room, okay?

It's a pity that you can't say this absolutely. It's okay to show off your wealth, but you must show it in a low-key way, and show it "inadvertently". If it's too high-profile and direct, it doesn't match the person's design, and it is easy to be hated by others.

Thinking about it this way, I fixed the lighter that was so rusty that I could hardly see the prototype on the workbench, and used a small carving knife and a small hammer to "clink" to clean up large pieces of rust.

After a few minutes, the rust was gone, and the overall shape and general structure of the lighter could be seen, but the remaining rust was the real problem, which needed to be cleaned carefully and with the help of tools.

Fortunately, he has what he wants here, and there are all kinds of grinding tools of various sizes. Although they are not specially used for grinding metal, but for grinding jade, such a small lighter is enough for grinding.

With his skills, he is fully qualified for this job.

But if you really want this lighter to be used to light mosquito coils, rust removal is not enough. It needs to be completely disassembled and cleaned from the inside to the outside to ensure that the overall structure is intact before it can be reused.

It's just that he really doesn't know the working principle of this old-fashioned lighter, after all, no one will pay attention to these things when they are free.

Well, the general principle is known. Before the appearance of electric lighters, flints were used to ignite the fuel stored in lighters through the principle of friction and ignition. This old-fashioned lighter should be no exception.

But when it comes to the specific structure, his eyes are really darkened, and he doesn't know anything.

How to do?
Internet search?
That's the most stupid thing, there are ready-made netizens, and you still need to do it yourself?

"The shape of this lighter is like this. It is very classic, right? Does it look retro when you use it to light mosquito coils? Hehehe, you can also light cigarettes, but no, the cigarettes are not as good. The pipe is just right, but unfortunately I don't have it ready-made After the lighter is repaired, I will find a pipe with the same style and come back with some good tobacco, tsk, it feels very good to think about it.”

"The problem now is that I don't know what the structure of this thing is. Who of you understand this? Tell me on the barrage?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a lot of text popped up on the barrage, all of which explained the structure and principle of this old-fashioned lighter, and carefully marked the precautions for repairing this old-fashioned lighter, so as to prevent damage to the old-fashioned lighter. The parts that need to be replaced are marked, and some even give the address of the store that sells similar accessories, which is very detailed.

This scene is like a group of...

cough cough.

Xu Jingxing coughed, and remembered the two most specific and detailed IDs: "Thank you for this other friend, I will think about what small gift I can give you later, it may not be very valuable, don't be disgusted."
