Taking a look at the time, it was already past one o'clock. Chu Chen went straight to Aunt Zhang's house, preparing to re-sign the rental contract and take care of the broadband issue. When Chu Chen was about to arrive at Aunt Zhang¡¯s house, he saw Aunt Zhang already standing at the door waiting for him. Seeing this, Chu Chen cursed in her heart. After all, she had money coming in and was not very active. She usually asked her to ask the property management company to help repair the lights in the corridor, but she had never seen her so enthusiastic. She was really greedy for money. When Aunt Zhang saw Chu Chen¡¯s arrival, she was extremely happy. She enthusiastically invited him into the house, and then made him a cup of bitter and astringent green tea. The taste almost made Chu Chen vomit it immediately. After that, the two parties re-signed the contract in a friendly atmosphere. Of course, the rent must have increased by fifty, which Aunt Zhang would never forget even if she died. After finishing the rental matter, Chu Chen and Aunt Zhang went to the telecommunications business hall to handle the broadband service. Originally, the time for installing broadband was uncertain. Fortunately, Aunt Zhang had an acquaintance in Telecom and could come to install it tomorrow. Of course, Chu Chen also gave the other party a pack of good cigarettes. After all, China is a society of favors. If others help you, there will always be something to gain. expressed. When everything was done, Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and made up his mind to go look at houses and prepare to buy a house after the Spring Festival. It was really troublesome to buy a house that was not his own. When Chu Chen wanted to go back, Aunt Zhang stopped him again and said, "Xiao Chen, Brother Zhang misses you and asks you to go to his shop when you have time." Chu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled. : "Brother Zhang will never ask me to go to his place for no reason. Could it be that he bought another batch of rough stones that did not perform well?" The Brother Zhang that Chu Chen said was Aunt Zhang's son Zhang. Guosheng, thirty-five years old this year, also has a shop in Antique Street called Cuiyuanzhai, which specializes in jade business and also deals in jadeite rough. It was precisely because Zhang Guosheng was also doing business in the antique street that Aunt Zhang heard about Chu Chen's eye piercing before. When Chu Chen first came to Panjiayuan, he accidentally learned about the stone gambling business. He heard many stories about getting rich and became excited. Fortunately, he could still control his desires and the money he invested was not much. However, it can cost a few hundred yuan a month, and it can cost thousands a month. Speaking of stone gambling, it can be said that nine out of ten bets result in losses. People often think of how much money someone made, but they never thought that some people lost everything and lost their wives and children. Fortunately, Chu Chen is good at learning, not blind, and has good luck. Over the past few years, he has not lost too much, and the place where he gambled was Zhang Guosheng's shop. "Zhang Guosheng's business is not small, but it may be that his son follows his mother, so he has a greedy character, so he buys rough stones that do not perform well once or twice every year. Not to mention, there are actually people who will buy this kind of stone, and Chu Chen is one of them. The common psychology of buying this kind of stone is to take a small chance to win a big one. Although there are people buying, after all, the quantity is large, and often the last one has not been sold out the next time he gets the goods. As long as this time, Zhang Guosheng invites these people over for reasons such as visiting people and connecting with each other. Then sell the previous inventory at a certain preferential price. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Originally, I just picked up the leftovers, and then after the customers selected them, we can see the quality of the rough stones. Most of them are already brick materials. But there are people who buy it, even Chu Chen has bought it several times. Firstly, it is cheap, and secondly, people always have a sense of luck. Maybe they will be lucky enough to find jadeite. But over the years, no one has actually cut out jadeite from that pile of waste rocks. "Well, you'll have to go and find out. I don't care about his affairs at all." Aunt Zhang said calmly. Chu Chen thought to himself, you still don¡¯t know your son¡¯s idiosyncratic personality. You have been patronizing his business for so many years and you haven¡¯t even had tea a few times. If you didn¡¯t ask us to come over to scan the goods, how could you be so kind to invite me over? , now that he has superpowers, he is somewhat uninterested in gambling on stones, and just wants to perfunctory Aunt Zhang. However, his thoughts suddenly changed, and Chu Chen suddenly thought, could his own superpower also be sensitive to jade? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but get excited and wanted to rush to Zhang Guosheng's shop to try it out. However, he stopped this conflict because all three opportunities for superpowers were used up today. The first time the superpower was used on the "Time Pot", then Chu Chen didn't plan to go to the antique market today, so he used the two superpowers in Zhu Dafu's guest room based on the principle that superpowers are not a waste. The furniture in Zhang Qing's late period, and even the current embarrassing situation, made him feel like crying without tears. However, Chu Chen immediately adjusted his mentality and thought, anyway, the stone has no legs and will not run away on its own. If there is really jade in it and someone else picks it away, there is nothing that can be done, so he said to Aunt Zhang: "Okay, ??I'll install the broadband and go to Brother Zhang's place tomorrow. " When Aunt Zhang heard this, she immediately walked to the telecommunications business hall. As she walked, she said to Chu Chen: "Xiao Chen, you go about your business. I'll go and urge my friend to speed up. ¡± Chu Chen was speechless for a moment, feeling like there were black lines all over his head. **************************************** * The next day, Chu Chen got up at six o'clock as usual, and then went to boxing for a while. When he came back, he had breakfast on the way, and then went home to open the computer in the living room and started tinkering. When he got home yesterday, he just walked halfway. He received a call from Uncle Wu, saying that his computer had been configured and asked him to go to the store and take the computer back with the staff. Chu Chen happily went to get his computer back, but at the same time he was a little bit embarrassed. , God doesn¡¯t like his own money, otherwise why didn¡¯t he spend more than 50,000 yuan on his hand, and spent more than 13,000 yuan on the entire computer? The price is suitable for the configuration of the computer. I heard that the CPU is Pentium 4 launched this year and the hard drive is 40G. It is much better than Uncle Wu¡¯s computer. When Uncle Wu got the computer, he was jealous of the system. It had already been installed, and several games were installed, such as Monopoly, Red Alert, etc. However, Chu Chen had no love for Red Alert. After the computer was installed, he started to play Monopoly, but he was not familiar with the inside. None of the foreign characters are interested in him. Who said he has some nationalist tendencies? Yesterday, Chu Chen played Monopoly until one o'clock in the morning, quite forgetting to eat and sleep. Fortunately, since his boxing breakthrough to Xiao Zhoutian, he has slept less. A lot, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get up at six o'clock today. When Chu Chen was about to win three pieces of land, he heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, it turned out to be the staff installing broadband. He checked the time. , it was just after eight o'clock, and he couldn't help but admire Aunt Zhang's skills. It was probably because Aunt Zhang had troubled her friend yesterday that she could be so efficient. Although she was an acquaintance, Chu Chen could not help but admire her. He was still delivering tea and cigarettes to the staff member. As the saying goes, eating people is soft-spoken and taking people short-handed. This is the only way Chu Chen has spent his career in the capital in recent years. Sure enough, the staff saw Chu Chen like this. Enthusiastic, Chu Chen installed his broadband in a beautiful and sturdy manner, and also gave him some phone lines and computer lines in case of emergency. After the completion, Chu Chen gave the man a pack of cigarettes, which made everyone happy. , he sighed from time to time, it is convenient for others, and it is convenient for myself. After the broadband was installed, Chu Chen couldn¡¯t wait to go online. He first browsed a few forums about antiques and said. In fact, there was not much online information at this time, and there were only a few antique forums, and the quality of the forums varied. After several comparisons, Chu Chen still felt that the forum introduced by Uncle Wu was the most popular and had the most information. At most, Chu Chen registered an account on that forum and browsed several sections at will. However, most of the questions on the forum were beginners' questions. Chu Chen couldn't help but answer a few of them, and he answered them in a short time. Being regarded as a master by several people made him feel ashamed. Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh, how important it is to have a good master in the antique world. Fortunately, when he first entered this industry, Uncle Wu guided him, and later guided him step by step, which saved him many detours, spent a lot of sweat, and also spent an unknown amount of money. Thinking of this, Chu Chen felt even more grateful to Uncle Wu and vowed to honor him even more in the future. The world of the Internet is very vast, especially for those who are new to it. They are curious about everything. Chu Chen is like this at this time. The most important thing is that he can communicate with Tibetan friends from all over the country, which makes him happy. in. " Moreover, Chu Chen's knowledge was already solid, and now he has a photographic memory. In terms of porcelain, it can be said that he is not much worse than some old masters, and the questions he answered are all meaningful. Moreover, he is a humble person. In just two or three hours, his popularity on the forum has greatly increased, and he has also become friends with several people he can talk to. After exchanging some experiences with several friends on the forum, Chu Chen looked at the time and found that it was already twelve o'clock unknowingly. He couldn't help but think, is this considered a waste of time? So I said hello to my friend on the forum, and he turned off his phone and went to eat. After dinner, Chu Chen got up from his nap and walked to Zhang Guosheng¡¯s Cuiyuan Zhai in high spirits. On the way to Cuiyuanzhai, he happened to pass by the place where Chu Chen often practiced stalls. After not going there for a few days, he missed the environment there, so he planned to pass by and take a look. Regular stalls in the market are fixed stalls, but they are very expensive and cannot be purchased without a certain amount of funds. Temporary stalls are cheaper in comparison.It's much lower, usually ranging from 10 yuan to 25 yuan a day depending on the location. Thanks to Uncle Wu's management, Chu Chen can usually rent a better location at a lower price, and the location is almost within a fixed range, so that repeat customers can easily find it. Therefore, over the past few years, Chu Chen's old There are still quite a lot of customers.
