Return to 90 and start a career

Chapter 15 It’s not worth anything

Zhao Yong's appetite was proportional to his body size. He ate the large portion of fried rice very quickly, barely chewing it twice before swallowing it, leaving not a single morsel left.

There really wasn't a grain of rice left. During this period, he accidentally dropped a handful of rice on the table. He picked it up naturally and threw it into his mouth.

When he reacted, he explained to Li Manjun a little embarrassedly, "I was afraid of hunger when I was a child, so I developed this habit. Do you mind if I pay attention next time?"

Li Manjun shook his head, "How could that happen? It's everyone's responsibility to save food."

But it seemed like she couldn't finish it.

The lady boss is really good at cooking, and this fried rice is the most delicious fried rice Li Manjun has ever eaten, but the lady boss is too kind and the portion is so big that she can’t finish it.

It was not yet eleven o'clock in the morning. She had already had breakfast when she came, and she was not really hungry.

If it was a normal meal, she could dazzle the plate of fried rice in front of her, and then have two large bowls of three fresh soup!

But once he said the words to save food, Li Manjun immediately knew what it meant to hit oneself in the foot with a weight.

Zhao Yong noticed it and asked doubtfully: "Are you full?"

Li Manjun didn't want to embarrass herself, so as soon as she nodded, Zhao Yong took the plate in front of her, poured the remaining half of the bowl of fried rice into his own plate, and finished it in a few big mouthfuls.

"It's not a waste, you said so." The way he smiled was a bit handsome.

Li Manjun was shaken by this smile and asked worriedly: "Are you full?"

Zhao Yong waved his hand and asked her if she wanted some more soup. After making sure that Li Manjun was really full, he took out his wallet and stood up to pay the bill.

The lunch for the two of them cost seven yuan in total. Zhang Huimei had three yuan in change. Zhao Yong went out and took a taxi. The two of them took a taxi directly to their destination, Ocean Park.

The sun was getting stronger, and the air at noon was getting hotter. Li Manjun turned around inadvertently and found that Zhao Yong had taken out the blue striped shirt tucked into his jeans at some point, unbuttoned it, and turned it into a cardigan.

"Are you hot?" he asked Li Manjun, looking straight at her with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He just saw that the fashionable girls next to him were all holding delicate little umbrellas.

Li Manjun shook his head. She was okay. It was even hotter than today when she went to the countryside two days ago. Liu Yan and her brother were sweating profusely due to the heat. She was okay because she was born with heat tolerance.

There were too many people in Ocean Park, and it was the weekend again. Children were running all over the ground, and adults were chasing after them breathlessly. A child ran straight towards Li Manjun, and Zhao Yong hurriedly pulled her arm aside.

The two were very close, with Zhao Yong's tall body behind her, separated by a thin layer of vest fabric, and his hot chest seemed to smear her whole body with his breath.

"Little guy, you almost hit auntie." Zhao Yong frowned slightly and warned the five or six-year-old child.

The child looked up at him and felt that the adult in front of him looked like a monster. He was frightened and his round eyes were filled with mist.

The parents who came later hurriedly said sorry to Li Manjun and asked if she was okay.

Li Manjun shook his head. The parents' attitude was acceptable and there was no need to worry about it.

He looked at Zhao Yong amusedly, who was treated as a monster by the children, walked away from him, and continued to move forward.

Zhao Yong, who was following behind, said gently to the parent to watch the children and don't let them run around. Then he touched his chest with some regret, as if there was still some residual warmth, and took two big steps to catch up with Li Manjun. The corner of his mouth curled slightly.

As the flow of people increased, Zhao Yong opened his hands slightly and used his tall body to firmly protect Li Manjun in front of him. They kept a punch distance between their bodies so as not to get too close.

After walking through the most popular entrance and arriving at Xiao Pan's home, there were fewer pedestrians around, so Zhao Yong and Li Manjun walked side by side.

She seemed to be looking for something, looking here and there, but her mind was no longer on him at all.

However, Zhao Yong felt that the things around him were not as good-looking as hers, and he couldn't get enough of them.

There is a faint fragrance of shampoo flowers coming from the black hair, which is the smell of jasmine.

Li Manjun walked through one handicraft shop after another claiming to be an antique shop, and visited one small stall after another. She declined the warm invitations from eight bosses to view the scrolls of Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei, and finally visited a small shop that looked more reliable. pawnshop.

It is said to be a pawn shop, but in fact it is more reliable to call it a grocery store. The sign at the door says that it is engaged in antique appraisal and recycling of old gold watches.

A table was set up in front of the door, covered with black cloth, and a handful of ancient coins were scattered on it.

Li Manjun stood at the table for a while, and the middle-aged man sitting behind the counter of the store came out, holding a straw fan and said, "Ten yuan each, they are ancient coins from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and they have high collection value. "

Other shops and vendors sell ancient coins for 50 yuan each. This is the price Li Manjun hears most often while walking, and it is probably the so-called generally accepted price.

Zhao Yong saw Li Manjun's interested look, and heard that the price was so much cheaper than the random prices just now, so he was interested, "Do you like it?"

Li Manjun shook his head and told him not to buy it. The boss grunted and looked like he was asking for trouble. He sat back on the bamboo chair in the store and picked up the newspaper to read.

This was the first time Li Manjun had given up on a client so quickly. He was completely different from the bosses he had met before.

He was very confident, but he also had a sense of contempt for the world, and he didn't bother to talk to people like them who didn't know how to do it.

Li Manjun judged based on his work experience in the past ten years that this person had some abilities.

She asked curiously: "Everyone else sells it for fifty yuan, but yours only sells it for ten yuan? Is this ancient coin real or fake?"

If it were the previous shop owners, they would be very keen to 'popularize science' with her and teach her how to identify ancient coins.

But the one in front of him put down the newspaper, turned his head and glanced at her unkindly, and shouted angrily:

"I, Wanrong Ming, am an incorruptible child! I never cheat!"

Li Manjun's ignorant question directly made people angry.

Zhao Yong saw that Li Manjun did it on purpose.

As for the purpose

"Do you have any old stuff you want to sell?" After being scolded by the pawnshop owner, the two left Xiao Pan's home and went to the aquarium. Zhao Yong bought two tickets and invited Li Manjun to watch the dolphins.

Li Manjun asked in surprise: "How did you know?"

"I guessed it." Zhao Yong said: "I also had a friend who did this two years ago, and then went abroad. He said that there were a few national treasures in our place, but then they became less popular. Now they are circulating on the market. They are all old items that are old but have no collectible value.”

In short, it’s not worth even having it.

But if it's a few hundred thousand or a few thousand, you can still make a profit, but it's just not as exaggerated as the hundreds of thousands or millions mentioned in the news.

"Do you want me to help you? That friend of mine should have connections." Zhao Yong stood behind Li Manjun. A group of children whose parents were holding them around their necks and wanted to move forward to watch the dolphin show were all blocked by him.
