MTL - Accidentally born in the ’60s-Chapter 51

Zhen Zhen was not in a hurry to go to Bingcheng with the big yellow croaker, she quietly appeared in the barn of her own house, and when Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen were not at home, she quickly opened the old sack in the barn , found a set of old and disrespectful clothes from Ming Bei's childhood and quietly returned to the mountains.

Standing on the edge of the stream in the mountains, Zhen Zhen put on old clothes, untied the hair rope and messed up her hair, grabbed a handful of mud from the water, and smeared the eye sockets and nose slightly. Next, he threw a bit of dirt on his face again. After cleaning herself up, Zhen Zhen looked at the reflection of the stream, not to mention her body was dirty, her face was even darker, it was horrible to see.

Zhen Zhen sat on a stone by the water, and first sent her consciousness to Bingcheng to observe the situation of the Meng family. At this time, Mr. Meng had already packed several large boxes of his collection of antique calligraphy and paintings, and looked at the empty study reluctantly, his face full of sadness.

"Master!" The housekeeper brought a cup of tea and put it on the table, Master Meng looked at him with a bit of sigh: "Old Guan, you have been with me for more than 20 years. "

"Yes, my lord." Lao Guan said with a bit of nostalgia on his face: "If my lord rescued me from the Japanese devils twenty years ago, I'm afraid I would not have been there long ago. this person."

Lighting a cigar, Mr. Meng took a hard breath, and the smoke spread as he spoke: "At that time, your wife and children died, and you haven't remarried all these years, wait for your mother. After you died, you never returned to your hometown, can you still contact your nephew from your hometown now?"

"In the past few years, there have been intermittent correspondence, and they also send some money and tickets to their homes every New Year. They have been counting on me to help, and they are quite warm to me." Lao Guan replied: "But I didn't tell them what I was doing outside. I sent all the letters to the factory, and I remembered what the master taught me before."

Master Meng nodded, opened the suitcase on the desk, took out a handbag and handed it to Laoguan: "There is a thousand yuan, a letter of introduction, a train ticket, and some food. Tickets, industrial tickets and other things, you keep them."

Lao Guan's expression froze on his face, his hands were shaking, and before he could speak, tears fell first: "Master, you don't want me anymore?"

"It's not that I don't want you, it's that I really can't take you away." Master Meng stood up and patted Lao Guan's shoulder: "These years we have been called master and servant, but in fact I I have always regarded you as a brother, you followed me when we were prosperous, and you didn’t leave me when it was difficult, but now we have to separate. Laoguan, to be honest, I don’t know if we can get on the boat after we drive to Tianjin. Grasp it, it's better for you to go back to your hometown than to follow me."

"Master, when you are outside, you have to have someone to run errands and take care of you. Besides, there has to be someone who will bring tea and water. What should I do if I don't follow you?" Lao Guan cried Old tears: "I have lived more than 20 years, sir, I am not afraid of death, let me follow you."

"The prosperous age is not too young, he should support these things. Laoguan, my family are all capitalists, and now it seems that the only way is to leave this road as soon as possible, you don't have to If you suffer with us, go back to your hometown and live your life well." Mr. Meng stopped talking about this topic, put his handbag in his arms, and then hugged him heavily: "You have been with me for so many years. , I also know that the most difficult thing to control is people’s hearts. The 800 yuan I give you is the Great Unity, and the remaining 200 yuan is exchanged for gross receipts and loose change. There are 10, 20, 50, and 10 yuan, which is enough. It's used for daily expenses. You must hide your money when you get home, don't put too much outside, and if something happens, there is a way out. "

Old Guan wiped his face, looked at Mr. Meng with tears in his eyes, and nodded choked: "Don't worry, Mr. If my nephew wants me to come and sit at home, I can live by myself without coming."

Master Meng nodded and let go of Lao Guan's shoulders: "I put some old clothes with patches in the warehouse downstairs, you can change them before you go." Lao Guan nodded. , looked at Mr. Meng steadily, knelt down and kowtowed heavily.

The sack staggered out.

Standing in the yard, Lao Guan turned around and glanced at the bungalow where he lived for many years, his face was full of tears. He touched the lush flowers in the courtyard, raised his head as if aware of it, and made eye contact with Mr. Meng, who was standing at the window on the second floor. Master Meng waved his hand with his cigar, Lao Guan raised his arm and wiped his tears with his sleeve, then turned and left. Standing at the window to calm down, Mr. Meng pressed the burning cigar into the ashtray.

Mrs. Meng was still packing her things. At this time, Haohua's master bedroom was in a mess, and all kinds of jewelry boxes had their lids open, and people were dazzled by diamonds, pearls, rubies, and jade. Exquisite cheongsams, handbags, and furs filled the bed, and Mrs. Meng almost turned over the treasures at the bottom of the press box.

Mr. Meng endured the impatience in his heart, and tried his best to say in a calm voice: "These can't be taken away. Pack the jewelry softly in the box, and I will sell it together."

Mrs. Meng immediately became anxious: "My jewelry is excellent in terms of quality and size. If you sell it, you may not be able to buy such a good quality."

Mr. Meng rubbed his brows wearily: "We must leave here in a low-key, low-key manner, I tell you, even the clothes you bring with you should be as simple as possible. You quickly pack up, Put our clothes in a suitcase, and I'll go out and ask old friends if anyone is willing to buy antiques."

Master Meng took two steps and then turned around: "We are going to escape, not to travel. If you can't bear your jewelry and clothes, you might as well stay."

Mrs. Meng's heart froze as she said in a sentence that did not contain emotion. Seeing that Mr. Meng left without looking back, Mrs. Meng did not dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly followed Mr. Meng's request and tried her best to save the two A suitcase is packed with things one can use. She didn't dare to look at the dazzling jewelry any more, she endured the heartache and closed the jewelry boxes one after another, and put them all into the empty boxes, waiting for Mr. Mengmeng to deal with them.

Zhen Zhen didn't show up immediately when Mr. Meng came out of the house. She didn't have much concept of the value of gold bars and antiques in this era. Thinking that Mr. Meng is willing to go out to negotiate a transaction, but now, looking at the situation, it seems that there are not many who dare to buy, so it is better to follow and see how much can be exchanged.

Obviously, Mr. Meng didn't have much hope for his transfer of antique calligraphy and painting, but he was reluctant to throw away those treasures like this. Asked by old friends who had deep friendships with him, as for those friends and friends in the wine market and business, Mr. Meng didn't even dare to ask, for fear that he would be sold if he walked away.

Mr. Meng didn't take the family car, but walked there. Fortunately, the capitalists in Bingcheng didn't live far away. After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived in front of a western-style building.

Ranging the doorbell, the housekeeper came out and looked at Mr. Meng for a while, and quickly opened the door to invite him in: "Why did Mr. Meng go out at this time."

"Come and visit your husband." Mr. Meng walked in quickly, but as soon as he entered the living room, Mr. Meng stopped.

"Why didn't Mr. Meng go in?" the housekeeper at the back asked, and then shouted: "Master, Master Meng is here."

A man who was about the same age as Mr. Meng was overjoyed when he saw Mr. Meng: "Brother Meng, come in, I'm just going to visit you tomorrow."

Looking at the boxes and cages all over the floor, Mr. Meng had a bit of bitterness on his face: "Brother Bai is also going to leave the ice city?"

"What? You too?" The two of them looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"I got the news that this movement involves a power struggle, and this kind of thing can't be seen in a day or two. It's better to evacuate quickly." Mr. Bai handed Mr. Meng a cigarette: "Why are you free today?"

Mr. Meng sighed: "I also planned to do the same, but I can't take the antique calligraphy, painting and jewelry at home. I wanted to ask you if you want to buy it? In the end, I saw your posture..." Mr. Meng shook his head, then remembered that Mr. Bai had a lot of connections, and couldn't help looking at him expectantly: "Brother Bai knows a lot of people in the antique collection, do you think who can get rid of the antiques in my family? That’s all, my Yuan Qinghua is a rare treasure, and that calligraphy and painting…”

Mr. Bai shook his head with a wry smile: "Brother, I don't hide it from you, even I didn't look for a way, prosperous antiques and chaotic gold, not to mention your family's collections, there are so many treasures in my family, I don't know Can you sell three large yellow croakers?"

"Why is it so worthless." Mr. Meng thumped his chest: "If it weren't for the fear of bringing too many things and easily revealing whereabouts, I would be reluctant to sell any of them."

"You think I'd give it up?" Mr. Bai looked at the pile of boxes in the living room with a heartache: "To be honest, bro, I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, and I'll trust someone for the ferry tickets. I've bought it. If I can't find someone to take over in these few hours, I can only leave things here."

Thinking of the rumors these days, Mr. Meng's face turned pale: "If those people break in, wouldn't these treasures be destroyed by them?"

If there is someone who buys it without negotiating the price, just sell it if you give it the money, there is a risk of one more day of delay." Master Meng left the Bai Family Mansion with a heavy weight, Zhen Zhen watched Master Meng come out, and her consciousness quickly returned to her body.

Standing up from the stream, Zhen Zhen checked her outfit again against the stream, and she landed on a big tree not far from Mr. Meng.

Seeing Mr. Meng coming over, Zhen Zhen slid down the tree trunk, holding a dime in one hand and a piece of candy in the other hand and ran quickly to Mr. Meng's side, revealing a silly look Silly and innocent smile: "Master, someone asked me to tell you something."

Mr. Meng looked at the unkempt little girl in front of him, his eyes turned on the cash and candies in her hand, he thought that Zhen Zhen was a child who casually sent letters from the roadside, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous Looking around, "Who called you here? What's the matter?"

"Someone asked me to send you a message, asking if you sell those antique calligraphy, painting and jewelry, two large yellow croakers?" Zhen Zhen smiled innocently, but instead of looking at Mr. Meng, she pointed He stared at the candy bar in his hand.

"Really?" After talking with Mr. Bai just now, Mr. Meng was ready to give up those treasures. Thinking of the buyer who refused to come forward, Mr. Meng immediately became alert again after the ecstasy: "Who asked you to bring it? How to deal."

Zhen Zhen blinked her eyes, showing a slightly thoughtful look, in the anxious look of Master Meng, she suddenly realized: "Oh, yes, he said that if you agree, you can pay for the gold bars first, You don't have to worry about antique calligraphy, painting, jewelry and the like, just leave it at home and he will pick it up himself."

Mr. Meng hesitated for a while, then turned to look at the Bai Family Mansion not far away, Zhen Zhen immediately added: "By the way, that person asked you to ask Mr. Bai for help, if he is willing Cut the love, that person is willing to give out three large yellow croakers."

In all fairness, even though there are some rare treasures in the collection of the two, it is a kind person to be able to offer this price at this time. Mr. Meng hurriedly ran back to the Bai's mansion. After a while, Mr. Bai hurried out with Mr. Meng.

Looking at the child like the little beggar in front of him, Mr. Bai was stunned. He looked at Mr. Meng and asked in disbelief, "You mean her?"

"It is estimated that they are here to send a message." Master Meng replied, then squatted down and asked that Zhen Zhen, "If we agree to where to get the big yellow croaker."

Zhen Zhen was eating the toffee with relish when she heard the question from Master Meng, so she handed over an extra paper bag in her hand. Mr. Meng and Mr. Bai looked at each other and hurriedly took over. Seeing that no one was coming, they quickly opened a corner carefully, revealing a touch of gold inside.

Master Meng quickly wrapped the paper, Mr. Bai didn't think Zhen Zhen was dirty, he took her hand and said softly, "Let's talk at home, there's a lot of candy there."

There were already people coming this way, Zhen Zhen nodded quickly, and when Mr. Bai's mansion was in, Mr. Meng couldn't wait to put the paper bag on the coffee table, and rudely opened the outside The five large yellow croakers neatly placed together appeared in front of everyone.

Mr. Meng and Mr. Bai are both people who have been immersed in the business field for decades, and there are many people who have passed this gold bar. Once you get started, you will know the truth by looking at the quality. .

Mr. Bai looked at Jin Zi with a kind smile: "Little boy, what did the person who asked you to pass the message say?"

Zhen Zhen repeated the words again, and then emphasized: "When that person gave me this package, he said that you must leave early in the morning, the door and door are locked, and the things are put in the house Just fine."

"Then how does he pick up the goods?" Master Meng asked, but Zhen Zhen replied with a blank expression, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the words.

Mr. Bai waved to Mr. Meng, ordered the servants to bring two packs of biscuits and one pack of toffee to Zhen Zhen, and patted her on the head cheerfully: "My dear, thank you. "

Zhen Zhen hurriedly ran away holding something, Mr. Meng asked Mr. Bai hesitantly: "Brother Bai, whose handwriting do you think this is?"

Mr. Bai shook his head: "Maybe it's the government or a high-ranking official, no matter which force it is, it must be someone who is extremely familiar with us, otherwise it wouldn't be so accurate without seeing something. Valuing things. Fortunately, he has no ill intentions towards us, otherwise he would not give the big yellow croaker first. Just for this, we have not donated money to them for building roads and schools in vain over the years." Mr. Meng nodded and stood up. Come and pick up the two large yellow croakers that belonged to him: "Since this is over, then I will take my leave."

"Farewell!" Mr. Bai bowed his hands.

Zhen Zhen watched Master Meng leave, and turned back to Beicha in a flash, not at all worried that those antique treasures bought with five large yellow croakers would be swept away. Mr. Bai and Mr. Meng have always been Confucian businessmen with excellent reputation in Bingcheng, and they have done a lot of good things. Just based on their character and past principles, Zhen Zhen did not bargain, but generously paid the big yellow croaker according to their psychological expectations.

Back in the mountains, Zhen Zhen took off her tattered clothes and threw them aside, the water in the stream was warm after sunbathing all day, Zhen Zhen simply went into the water and washed her face while playing with the fish come home clean.

After a comfortable and steady sleep, when she woke up in the morning, Zhen Zhen didn't even bother to eat breakfast, she picked up a piece of cake and rushed out of the house like the wind, Mrs. Li looked straight and shook her head: " Why is this holiday busier than going to school, and I don’t know what to do in the mountains all day.” Zhen Zhen’s heart was all about her own antiques, she took two bites of the pancakes, seeing that there was no one around, she disappeared without waiting in the mountains. Behind the tree by the roadside.

Quietly landed on a tree near Meng's house, Zhen Zhen swept the Meng's mansion with her consciousness, and it was already empty. Zhen Zhen's figure disappeared from the tree and appeared in the living room of Meng's family. There were more than a dozen boxes over one meter high neatly arranged in the living room. Zhen Zhen opened one of them, and there were boxes of different sizes inside. . I picked up a larger box at the top, and saw that the bottom and surrounding areas were padded with sponge and soft cloth, and a beautiful porcelain was firmly fixed to the box with ropes. Zhen Zhen doesn't understand antiques, so she can only open the bottom of the bottle to see the mark below, which reads the Yongzheng system of the Qing Dynasty.

I didn't have time to look at them one by one, it's not safe to put things here, no one knows when the pink guards will rush in, Zhen Zhen hugged a box, and with a flash of consciousness, she brought the box with her To the depths of Beicha virgin forest. After a busy morning, Zhen Zhen not only brought back the antiques, calligraphy, paintings and jewelry of the Meng and Bai families, but also moved back the books, desks and chairs in the study. It's not that she has plucked her hair, it's mainly the Ming Dynasty huanghuali furniture in these two study rooms, which is also very valuable.

The previous things were all moved back, and the remaining bits and pieces Zhen Zhen didn't want to let go, the two families left in a hurry and didn't take much with them.

I found a place where the trees were not dense, Zhen Zhen found a mountain without tree roots, and let the boxes sink one by one. The boxes were all buried in the soil, but this pile of Ming Dynasty furniture made Zhen Zhen worried, and it would definitely be destroyed by the strong storms on the mountain in the open air, but if it was placed in the soil, Zhen Zhen felt that it was not preserved. good way.

After walking around these Ming Dynasty furniture twice, Zhen Zhen finally set her sight on the lush trees nearby. As Zhen Zhen's gaze moved, trees rose up one by one, their roots were intertwined, the trunks were tightly attached and grew firmly together, and soon Zhen Zhen was surrounded by towering trees. When the area of ​​more than 200 square meters came out, only two trees were missing from the lower side, as if the door was deliberately left. With a wooden wall, the roof is the most important thing, Zhen Zhen looked up at the top of the tree, and made a gentle tug gesture, all the branches on the wooden wall suddenly hung down in the middle, intertwined with each other, A sloping roof was built.

Because everything is controlled by Zhenzhen, the branches keep growing or shrinking during the construction process, until they are completely closed together. Zhen Zhen quickly ran to the outside along the reserved door, admiring the wooden house she built with her supernatural powers.

Because there are tree roots in the ground, Zhen Zhen is not worried about the problem of firmness at all, the only thing she is afraid of is that these small joints will leak water. It spreads upwards, one on top of another, and it looks like a green house from a distance.

Zhen Zhen moved all the furniture into the tree house excitedly, and then returned to Bingcheng to bring back other people's beds, quilts, sofas, coffee tables, and even the kitchen . Families like the Meng family and the Bai family no longer use stoves for cooking, and their eyes are shining brightly from a row of brand-new liquefied gas tanks. I'm worried about a lot of things that I can't take home. With this stuff, I can cook in the mountains.

Zhen Zhen brought back the gas tank, pot and stove. Besides the rice and noodles eaten in the cupboard, the treasures like bird's nest, shark's fin, sea cucumber, fish maw and scallops are even more the same. When it didn't fall, Zhen Zhen worked hard all day, finally moved everything back to Beicha, looked around, the house that was luxurious and rich a day ago is now only a bare wall.

Zhen Zhen clapped her hands and smiled with satisfaction, just as she was about to leave, suddenly a noise came from outside, watching a group of pink guards with pink armbands jumping over the wall and jumping into the yard one by one , Zhen Zhen smiled mischievously, and then her figure disappeared from the room.

The author has something to say: Yes, you read that right, the gas tank appeared in 65 years.

Because we are an overhead text and want to contaminate ZZ, so some words have been changed, and everyone knows it.
