Alpine pasture

Chapter 1 Lord Wanli's Bulldog

The warm sunshine in May shrouded Jiangnan City, and people just wanted to pull a rattan chair, invite two or three old friends, sit under the tree, have a pot of hot tea, play poker or play chess.

Ju An has lived in the city of Jiangnan for eight years. He went to university in Jiangnan. He graduated from university and joined a foreign trade company in Jiangnan. This is the fourth year of graduation. Since entering the school, he has witnessed In Jiangnan City, housing prices were first, and then all kinds of things were soaring. The only thing that remained firm for four years was his own salary.

As soon as five o'clock arrived, Ju An packed up with his colleagues and prepared to leave work.

"Lao Ju, Lao Li, Lao Qi, don't forget tomorrow, come to my door at ten o'clock in the morning," a thin young man shouted as he packed up.

"Are you going to ride again tomorrow?" asked Zhang Li, the company's female accountant.

"Sister Zhang, what do you mean, we are going to ride for the first time in a few months, or you will come tomorrow, Li Ge, I will teach you!"

Old Li said with a smile.Old Li's name was Li Jin. According to Old Li himself, he was the first group of people in Jiangnan to ride horses.At that time, when the first horse farm opened, he began to ride horses. Ju An, Qi Aijun, and the skinny boy Wang Dongyu were all influenced by Lao Li.I just love horseback riding.

"What's so fun about riding a horse? Tomorrow, my sister, I'll go shopping with my boyfriend, and get my hair done the day after tomorrow. What's the matter?" Zhang Li replied.

"Hey! I sympathize with your boyfriend, the whole two days are over." Old Li shook his head.

"Brother Li, you and Brother Qi are married by themselves, but these two are still bachelors. You can bring a few of them to have fun," Zhang Li said with a smile.

"Sister Zhang, I don't actually like horseback riding. What girl do you know introduced me to my younger brother, I'll draw a clear line with them, I love shopping," Wang Dongyu said with a shy face.

"You traitor translator" Ju An and Li Jin pointed their middle fingers directly at Wang Dongyu.

A few people went to the downstairs of the company after fighting.Ju An said goodbye to a few of them and walked towards the bus stop.

The bus station is more than one stop away from Ju'an's company, and there is a direct bus to the community only through the antique market in Jiangnan City. This so-called antique market is just a big alley.A half-big road with its back against the palace wall of Jingtian Palace was slowly formed in the 90s, and now it is still mostly street stalls. Many of the old street stalls in the 90s are now small and have enough money, and they rented large stores nearby. There are many legends left on this road.

During this period, the business of the antique market was not good. The hawkers in twos and threes passed cigarettes to each other and chatted with each other across the stalls, and some gathered together to play cards.

Slowly swaying, looking at the stalls on both sides of the road while swaying, these small stalls are full of copper coins, porcelain, and you can even see some small bronze tripods, which are nicknamed the fake market by Jiangnan people.

Suddenly, a small thing attracted Ju An.A small stall has piles of copper coins, and a ceramic puppy is placed in the corner of the stall.

"Boss, how much is this copper coin?" Ju An crouched down, picked up a copper coin, and looked at the stall owner.

"Little brother, know the goods. The best thing in my stall is this coin. Look at the pulp, the genuine Qianlong Fan coin. You can give me five hundred for the price." The hawker pointed to the copper coin and said. .

"Boss, I go to work over there, I'm not here to travel in Jiangnan." Ju An pointed to the direction of the company.

"Cough, cough, this is really an old item. I don't believe you. You are nearby. You can be regarded as a neighbor. You can give me 320 yuan. If you take it away, I will treat it as an open door today." The peddler said a little He smiled awkwardly.

"Then how do you sell this porcelain dog?" Ju An pointed to the little porcelain dog beside him.

"You said this, little brother, let me tell you, I just received this thing, look at it,
This base model is made in the Wanli Year of the Ming Dynasty. I was looking at the quality of the tire and the color of the glaze. When I received this thing from the countryside, the fellow said that this thing is a large tomb dug out of a reservoir in their village. What came out, along with a lot of old porcelain, as well as gold and silverware, when it was discovered, it immediately alerted the government, and this fellow got this object quickly." The hawker prepared to tell Ju An about this thing. 's history.

"Boss, can you really say, did we have bulldogs in China at the time of Lord Wanli, don't you live in vain?" Ju An nodded at the porcelain dog.

"Puchi!" the hawker next to him laughed, "I said old Wutou, this little brother still knows dogs"

"Go, I'm doing business here, what are you talking about?" The hawker glared at the stall owner below.

Ju An took out a cigarette from his pocket, scattered one to each of the hawker and the stall owner, and then lit a cigarette himself.

"Hehe, golden Jiangnan, good smoke," the stall owner next to him exclaimed.

"This is the first time I went to the countryside to collect things. It was about [-]. The first time I didn't have much eyesight, I picked up such a thing." The peddler took a deep breath. All thieves and thieves, I slapped them in the eye, came back and took them out to show the connoisseurs, they made the whole street laugh at me for half a year.”

Ju An picked up the porcelain dog and looked at it carefully. It was a sitting bulldog with a collar around its neck. There were some broken things on the collar that seemed to be thorns. With a little smile, he turned the bottom, and it was written in small blue characters of the Wanli Year System.

"Boss, it's more fun to watch this dog. I'm going to buy it and put it on the table. It's estimated to be more than ten years at most. It's just a handicraft, and I'll give you a sincere price." Ju An put down the porcelain dog.

"Give fifty and you take it"

"Fifty is too expensive. A porcelain storage jar is only more than ten yuan. It is much better than this. It can also save money. This thing can only be seen. Look, the nails on the dog collar on the neck have all fallen off. , In this way, I will give 20 yuan, I will take it if it is suitable, and forget it if it is not suitable, you can see if it works."

"Little brother, when I received this item, it was more than 40 yuan, and I only earned you a few yuan. Can I sell it at a loss for [-] yuan?" The peddler smiled wryly, as if he was very reluctant.

"Twenty, it can't be too high. The brand new things in the porcelain store don't cost 40 yuan. If you break so much, you need me to forty. It's too expensive, or the copper coins just now are counted as 40 yuan." He ordered the copper coins that had been put down in front of him.

"Brother, aren't you talking nonsense? The copper coins are more than forty, and I won't take any money if the money is less than three hundred." The hawker waved his hand quickly.

"Forget it, I still have to catch the car." Ju An raised her legs and stood up, posing to leave.

"Then take the [-], I'm really losing money, I tell you, or I'm really reluctant to sell it if it hasn't opened today. Although this thing is new, it's also a lesson for me to spend money on. "It doesn't make a lot of sense." The hawker hurriedly asked Ju'an to put the porcelain dog in a small cardboard box and hand it to Ju'an.

Ju An almost became happy when she heard it, since your feelings are of great significance, you are here to press your feet.

He took out twenty from his pocket and handed it to the peddler, took the box, and turned to leave.

"Brother, come and have a look at me, I'm selling all the good china, they're all old things, you want Yuanqinghua, they're all there." The stall owner next to him seemed to think it was a good deal.

Hearing that Yuanqinghua has both, Ju An almost fell into a somersault, "I said, boss, can I buy your Yuanqinghua, and I can't even afford to sell it."

"Big brother, the price is honest, Yuanqinghua [-], you also let me open." The stall owner smiled at Ju An, showing his yellow teeth.

"You should keep that Yuan Qinghua as a foreigner, I won't delay the business." Holding the box, Ju An quickened his pace and walked towards the station.

"I said Lao Wu Tou, it just opened today, where did you come from?" The stall owner poked the old Wu Tou on the side with his elbow.

"That thing is really collected, but it's just a tip. The tip of the small bottle sold to Dao Guangnian of Baoxiangzhai last time, went to Laoshan. I saw the bottle as soon as I entered the door, just like the one just now. The stuff was put together, the family said they all came up from the ground, how could I be fooled by this, I fought with them for a long time, and it cost a total of 130 yuan, the bottle changed hands for more than 3000, and no one wanted the dog. The one at home couldn't find my square stone when I went out today, so I brought it out," Wu Tou said proudly.

After sitting in the car for nearly an hour, and then having dinner at the small restaurant at the intersection, Ju An returned to the small house he rented. The small room of more than ten square meters would cost four hundred oceans a month. Bathroom and kitchen, toilet is shared, kitchen is not at all, this is the so-called rental house in urban village.

The house is a large room divided into two small rooms by the landlord, with only a few layers of carpentry boards in the middle. If the couple lived opposite to each other, Ju An could clearly hear the entertainment activities at night.

If you want to live in a community suite, you have to spend at least 700 yuan a month. In terms of Juan’s salary, almost one-third has to be contributed to the landlord. Originally, Juan thought it was just a sleep, but now it’s hard work Point, save more money, and I will live comfortably when I have a house in the future. Now I don’t even have a girlfriend, so what should I do.

A few years ago, I thought about my own house, but only a few years ago I didn’t dare to think about it. Why? The house price in Jiangnan is rising like a rocket. Now the house price in the suburbs is [-]. As far as the salary of Ju'an is, the balance of one year is not enough for one square meter. After you buy a house, you can repay the loan for several decades. After you have paid off the money, maybe the land use rights for several decades will arrive. You still have to pay, you wicked real estate agent.

After entering the door, he put the cardboard box on the table, took out the porcelain dog from the box, and put it next to the computer. Ju'an's computer is still an antique from four years ago. Browsing and browsing the web, or flipping through the game of solitaire, minesweeper, etc. that comes with the system, you can't do anything else.

Qi Aijun said what a shitty netbook. People have installed the netbook that they used a few years ago. I think An Zi can sue them for infringement.
