"Master!"

"Xiaoqiang, is this your neighbor in the courtyard?"

The person who opened the door to Zhu Qiang was an unattractive old man.

Zhu Qiang bent down and said, "Master, these are the two of you."

Teacher: "Since we are Xiaoqiang's neighbors and we are not outsiders, let's go in and talk."

Li Kangzhan twitched his lips: "I will follow your orders."

But we feel that this Xiaoqiang is so inconsistent, it always reminds him of cockroaches.

Zhu Qiang's master came to open the large iron door of the warehouse of the recycling station: "The furniture in here, tables, chairs and benches cost one yuan each, beds cost two yuan, and cabinets cost three yuan."

"You take your pick."

After finishing speaking, the old master said to Zhu Qiang: "I'm back at home. Call me when you've finished picking."

The three of them entered the warehouse and looked at each item for a long time to see if it was intact.

This is different from what Li Kangzhan imagined. Other protagonists can ship out treasures at bargain prices, but why is it so difficult to get to him?

There is still a gap between reality and fiction.

Yan Bugui: "It's useless to take these things back."

Li Kangzhan nodded: "Let's go."

Li Kangzhan and Yan Bugui left the recycling bin, and Zhu Qiang went to say hello to his master.

"Third uncle, you go back first, I'll wait for Zhu Qiang or he has to walk back."

Yan Bugui nodded: "Hey, it's bad luck. It's all a waste of time."

After Yan Bugui left, Li Kangzhan touched it again.

It happened that Zhu Qiang came out.

"Zhu Qiang, don't you have any good Ming and Qing furniture in your recycling bin?"

Zhu Qiang: "Brother, to tell you the truth, I just asked my master."

"Yes, they are definitely available, but they are not cheap."

Li Kangzhan understood as soon as he thought about it. There was really something good and a knowledgeable master, so he kept it for himself.

"Money is not an issue, Zhu Qiang, please talk to your master."

Zhu Qiang nodded: "That's it, wait a moment and I'll tell the master."

Zhu Qiang went in again, a few minutes later.

"Brother, come in."

Li Kangzhan entered the duty room.

"Old Master, people from the Ming Dynasty don't talk secretly. I just like the old furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties."

"Since Xiaoqiang is here and you are not an outsider, I will take you to see the goods first."

The three of them came to the backyard again, but this time they changed to a small warehouse.

After the warehouse door is opened, turn on the light.

At a glance, there were dozens of pieces of old furniture. The three of them were a bit worn, but at least they had no missing arms or legs.

The old master casually pointed to a pair of chairs: "A pair of huanghuali high-backed Nanguan hat chairs from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, one of fifteen!"

When Zhu Qiang heard the price: "Master..."

Yan Bugui told Zhu Qiang that the work would not be in vain, so Zhu Qiang wanted to facilitate this transaction.

"For Xiaoqiang's sake, I'll give you twenty-one if you want."

Li Kangzhan was an older girl getting on the sedan chair. It was her first time and she didn't understand it at all.

He looked at Zhu Qiang, who said in front of his master: "Brother, don't worry. If you have any questions, please ask me."

Someone was guarantor, and Li Kangzhan was very happy: "I want it."

The old master continued: "Huanghuali, red sandalwood inlaid with Shoushan stone, dragon holding longevity pattern, two-head official hat chair from the Qianlong Jingye Hall model in the Qing Dynasty!"

Li Kangzhan: “The price is the same as before?”

"Yes, same."

"Okay, I want it."

Qing Dynasty Huanghuali six-poster canopy bed with latticework, 30.

This bed of light carvings is worth this price. Although thirty yuan is a lot nowadays, Li Kangzhan has a prophet of the future, so it is better to put this thing up for auction and start with at least seven figures.

"I want it too."

In the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, Huanghuali Magpie Climbing the Plum Blossom Picture and Zhu Dingguan's Suitcase, you can pay ten yuan to make it.

Li Kangzhan nodded: It’s good to go back and decorate this thing.

Li Kangzhan pointed to another bed and asked, "Where is this one?"

"Ming Dynasty Wanli Sun Kehong made a four-poster canopy bed made of huanghuali, engraved with poetry, green pines and grapes, fifty years old."

When he heard that it was from the Ming Dynasty, Li Kangzhan's first thought was to compare it with the previous Qing bed.

"Okay, I want it too."

"Qing Dynasty Huanghuali wooden style tooth-head single-board tilted head case, fifteen."

"I want it."

As Li Kangzhan continued to collect some treasures, when he finally walked to the back, some more exquisite furniture caught his eye.

"Young man, don't look at it. These are not for sale. My old man plans to keep these for himself."

"Master, can you tell me something?"

"Okay, let me tell you."

The old master's face glowed with pride.

A pair of large-top chests with Huanghuali, Luan, Phoenix and Peony patterns made by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. These items are so rare.

Look at this again, a royal rosewood throne with cloud and dragon patterns made in the Qing Dynasty.

Mahogany carved inlaid tapestry painted screen!

Li Kangzhan's mouth watered when he heard it, but he didn't want to sell it.

In the end, Li Kangzhan spent 450 yuan to buy a pair of Ming and Qing furniture.

He used the tricycle from the recycling station and had to go back and forth several times before he was done. Every time after riding out, he would find a dead end where people were carrying people and put the things in his storage.

If you take it back to the courtyard, it will easily arouse people's thoughts. If you bump it, you will feel distressed. You can also put it in the portable storage to avoid weathering.

Finally, when Li Kangzhan went back with Zhu Qiang, Li Kangzhan gave Zhu Qiang 20 yuan for his hard work.

Zhu Qiang was a little embarrassed when he saw twenty yuan, which was two yuan more than his monthly salary.

"Brother, this is too much."

"Keep it, I can't help you in vain."

"But don't tell the third uncle about this when you go back."

After Zhu Qiang accepted the money: "Don't worry, nothing happened today."

"But brother, where did you take all the furniture?"

"I found a place to store it. I don't want to bring it back to the compound to avoid any complications."

Zhu Qiang: "Brother, don't worry, my master's treasure will definitely be sold to you in the future."

Li Kangzhan asked suspiciously: "Why?"

Zhu Qiang explained: "Although four hundred and fifty yuan is a huge sum of money, my master has no children and usually likes to play cards, drink wine, and listen to music!"

"He doesn't have the habit of saving money. When he runs out of money, he has to sell things. He used to have a lot of good things, but he had no money to spend and sold them all."

Li Kangzhan was heartbroken, this was too wasteful.

"Zhu Qiang, when did you follow your master?"

"I have only been with him for more than a year. Master pitied me for being lonely and took me in as his disciple. However, after being with him for so long, I have only learned a few superficial things."

Li Kangzhan couldn't help but ask: "Besides furniture, do you know anything else?"

Zhu Qiang: "Master has taught me, but I only know a little bit about antiques, calligraphy and painting, and I haven't had the opportunity to practice them."

Li Kangzhan decided to focus on collecting. He wanted to walk on two legs, but Yan Bugui was a bit slow on his own.

"Zhu Qiang, you collected the rags and didn't receive any good things?"
