Chapter 48 Scanning the scrap station with a detector

Chapter 48: Scanning the scrap station with a detector

It took Zeng Tian three hours to go back and forth at the fastest speed. The tired man sat near the scrap station and didn't want to move.

There were not many people coming and going at the scrapyard. Zeng Tian took out a hamburger and a bottle of Coke and ate and drank it. The familiar and missed taste made her satisfied and happy.

Finally, I had a big chicken drumstick to regain some strength. I used my mind to find the detector, read the instructions on how to use it, and then headed to the scrap station.

Standing at the door and looking in, an old man was cooking on a small coal stove in the yard.

"Hello, uncle."

The old man seemed irritated by being disturbed and turned his head to glance at Zeng Tian impatiently.

"What's going on?"

Reaching out to stop the smiling face, Zeng Tian smiled sweetly and spoke softly.

"Excuse me, uncle, I want to go in and find some books. I made dinner at home and ran out. I just wanted to take advantage of this time to find a few more books while no one is around."

"Like reading?"

Zeng Tian nodded his head as fast as a motor and said that if he likes reading, no one would hate it.

The old man raised his chin to signal Zeng Tian to come in, then bent down and continued cooking.

"Thank you, uncle."

The scrapyard in the county is not big, with a total of three rooms used as warehouses.

Zeng Tian was stunned when he walked into the middle room. It was indeed a scrap station. There was no place to step inside. If he wanted to get in, he would have to step on the scraps.

Zeng Tian didn't waste any time and turned around to look at the yard where the old man was still cooking. He immediately rushed inside and took out the detector, turned the reminder sound to the minimum and started scanning.

There might be something inside, and there was movement just after scanning. Zeng Tian didn't care what it was, so he just took it out and threw it together.

There were iron sheets, copper oil lamps, and even toothpaste sheets. Zeng Tian had been paying attention to the old man's movements and found that he was sitting at the gate with a bowl in his hands and eating.

Now Zeng Tian felt more at ease. She would pick it up whenever it rang. After finishing one room, she would move on to the next one. This was a test of physical strength and hand speed.

When the old man walked in, he saw Zeng Tian sitting on the ground, rummaging through books bit by bit, with more than a dozen books piled at his feet.

"Have you finished reading so much?"

Zeng Tian smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face had already turned into a little cat.

"It's rare that I have time to go out, so I want to find more at once."

"Well, then just look for it slowly and I'll make it cheaper for you later."

Zeng Tian watched the people leave and heaved a sigh of relief. She had just put everything she had found into the space, and it was not a suitable place to look around slowly.

It took me two hours of busy work at the scrapyard to collect all the items, and I walked to the yard with more than 30 books in my arms.

"Sir, I've found it."

"Take eight cents."

The old man flipped through it casually and stopped reading, but his attitude obviously improved a lot.

"Okay, thank you, sir."

Get the money quickly, the old man tied it into two piles with rope.

"If you still want books, come here before the end of each month. That's when there are the most books."

"Okay, thank you, sir."

Zeng Tian didn't know that the old man was looking at his back in a daze, as if remembering and yearning for him.

Zeng Tian went home after walking out of the scrapyard. He was nowhere as safe as home.

When I released all the items I found, I realized how many there were. After a quick review, there was almost nothing that needed to be left behind.

When there were only two wooden sticks left, and she didn't know whether they were table legs or chair legs, Zeng Tian felt that her hope had come, so she took back the space she had picked up earlier, and then went to the scrap station to return them.

The wooden stick did feel heavy in the hand, and it was unusually heavy. It made no sound when it shook. Zeng Tian took out a kitchen knife from the space and carefully knocked it down. The knife only penetrated the wood for a dozen centimeters before it stopped moving.

Then he inserted the knife from the other end, and after about ten centimeters, it couldn't move anymore. Zeng Tian couldn't get it open no matter how hard he tried, so he just cut it off like a sugar cane skin.

When An Xiuyuan arrived at work, he hurriedly dealt with the delayed work. Thinking that the house needed to be tidied up, he left before five o'clock.

"Director Liao, Director An didn't come in the morning and left early in the afternoon. Isn't it too presumptuous?"

Factory Director Liao stood by the window, took a sip of tea, and looked at the people walking in the factory area.

"If you have the skills of someone else, I will let you be so arrogant. It was originally agreed that he would have free working hours."

"But, I've been in the factory for several days and I haven't seen him do anything. Maybe it's just a show."

Director Liao glanced at the person next to him with squinted eyes.

"Xiao Han, it's okay to be jealous, but you can't talk nonsense. An Xiuyuan is an outstanding mechanical talent in the team. If he hadn't been seriously injured and insisted on retiring, do you think he could have joined our unit?

Sometimes, you have to relax your mind. He is the director and you are also the director, but you are responsible for different tasks and there is no conflict. If he is good at the factory, why not do it."

"Hehe, I'm also confused. I just see him being on the same level as me at such a young age. I can't help but feel a little jealous."

Director Liao patted Han Zhanshan on the shoulder and laughed.

"He has an unlimited future, and you will be jealous of him in the future. But let me remind you first, he is the talent our factory needs, and you can't push him away from me."

"Then, director, will you really let him see the order form? What if you see a problem?"

Director Liao's face darkened when he mentioned this, and he took another sip of tea.

"It's impossible to see. If someone really finds out, we won't be able to eat anything and just walk around."

"But I don't think An Xiuyuan gives up easily."

An Xiuyuan knocked on the door after seeing that it was closed from the inside. When the door was opened, he couldn't believe his eyes. His wife spent most of the day turning into a black monkey?

"How did you clean up your house?"

"Ah? I haven't cleaned up yet. You come in first and talk about it later."

Zeng Tian dragged the person in and locked the door. An Xiuyuan glanced at the house and knew that there was no movement at all, but the floor was obviously dirtier.

"Here, help me. I went to the scrapyard today to find some useful things. At that time, I found that the weights of these table legs were different, so I brought them back, but I couldn't split them open no matter how hard I tried."

An Xiuyuan looked at the two wooden sticks on the ground that could no longer be seen as irregular, and weighed them in his hands. There was something wrong with them.

"Yeah, this is too heavy."

"Well, there should be something inside. Did you get this look at the scrapyard?"

Zeng Tian grinned and wanted to brush off the dust on his body, but his hands were so dirty that his skin color could not be seen.

"I just wanted to save a little. It's not easy for you to make money, and I don't have the ability to make money."

Look at what a considerate little girl she is, and she has more and more personas.

An Xiuyuan shook his head helplessly. He was not short of money, okay? He went to get a basin of water first and put the soap aside.

"Wash it first, and don't go to the scrap station anymore. If I can afford it, you can make it too."

"oh."

She doesn't want free food, and she doesn't need to be raised.

An Xiuyuan saw the knife on the ground. It was rusty and had several cuts.

Zeng Tian raised her eyebrows. She almost forgot to put away the knife in space just now. It was not a good knife available nowadays. Fortunately, she collected a scrap knife at the scrap station to recharge it.
