Chapter 112 He wants something from Rong Yongtai
Zhou Yan also pulled Liang Xiaonan to squat there, opened the back basket, revealing half a basket of potatoes.
The man glanced twice, but said nothing.
The two began to gesture with their fingers. Liang Xiaonan didn't know what to gesture for. She lowered her eyelids and pretended to be wood. She had a vague guess in her heart, but she was not sure.
After a while, the man stood up and left with the basket on his back. Zhou Yan also carried the basket, holding Liang Xiaonan's hand and following him.
People who don't know will think that they don't know each other, just a few ordinary country youths walking through the street.
The man walked through Jiefang Street with a basket on his back, then Zhongshan Road, and finally came to a small alley called Guanghui Road. An hour had passed.
In a dilapidated courtyard near the river, the man stood still at the door of an inconspicuous small courtyard that had been abandoned for a long time, and finally spoke: "There is no one at home, I am the only one, come in."
This kind of private transaction is actually a way for people to chase wolves—two fears! Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan were afraid that the other party would set a trap in the yard, and the other party was also afraid that these two people were here to step on the spot.
During the sign language exchange just now, Zhou Yan told the man that a man surnamed Zhao called him a few months ago, otherwise the man would not have taken them to his warehouse.
Outside the dilapidated courtyard, there is another world inside. The house is an old-fashioned one with corridors, and there are one-foot stone piers under the concrete pillars.
The courtyard with two entrances looks dilapidated, but the doors and windows are in good condition.
"You can call me Pioneer, what can you exchange for it?" This kind of transaction will definitely not say his real name, what kind of Pioneer, he said that he is called a cat or a dog, it doesn't matter, as long as the things are real.
"Potato, you have heard, the signature dish of Wanghulou restaurant, potato, this is it, I have it."
"How much do you have? How do you change it?" Pioneer has obviously heard of potatoes, and probably has eaten them.
"As much as you want," Zhou Yan said firmly, "We will send it to you immediately after we have seen it."
Pioneer swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and said, "I'll show you something." He opened the door of the main room and went in by himself.
Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan followed in, and found that it looked like a grocery warehouse, with bottles, tables, cabinets, and beds piled up everywhere.
Liang Xiaonan saw a few scrolls and letters at a glance. She picked them up and flipped through them. They turned out to be letters from celebrities, copybooks, and scrolls were paintings and calligraphy of Tang and Yuan dynasties.
There is also a sack on the ground, which contains coins of various dynasties, and some foreign coins, large and small, thousands of pieces.
In the whole room, on the floor, on the table, and in the baskets, there are basically such calligraphy and painting antiques.
She was in shock!
"These things used to be good things, but now I can't eat them..." Liang Xiaonan only spoke half of the sentence.
Pioneer obviously wanted to let go, saying: "If you want these things, you can take them away if you give them food. It's better to hurry up, the sooner the better."
These celebrity calligraphy and paintings and ancient coins are now hidden by everyone. They cannot eat or drink, and they will bring disaster if they keep them.
Zhou Yan: "Is there anything else? Let me see."
Pioneer: "You wait."
He opened the door of Westinghouse, and after a while took out two watches, which were probably new and foreign.
"These two watches were originally worth more than 300 yuan. If you want to exchange them, take 200 catties of your potato."
At this time, watches are very rare, young people wear them, and immediately become the most fashionable boy on the street!
Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan have almost the same thoughts now, they are not rare for this kind of watch, Liang Xiaonan fell in love with the antique calligraphy and paintings in that room, Zhou Yan did not see what he wanted.
Liang Xiaonan and Zhou Yan looked at each other, and immediately understood, Liang Xiaonan said: "We don't want a watch, do you have anything else?"
Pioneer was very happy, but he refused to take out a lot of things. Liang Xiaonan said: "We are all in your territory, and you won't show anything. When I get back the real gold and platinum things, you won't give me anything." Me, we are also at great risk."
"You bring the things here, when the time comes, we will have the money and the goods."
From the first time Liang Xiaonan saw this person, he knew that he was very cautious and shrewd. In fact, he could guess where he got these things, and they must have been stolen.
He was in a hurry to make a move. Liang Xiaonan actually didn't want to give him too much, but he was able to get so many things secretly, which can be regarded as indirectly protecting the old things.
"It doesn't make sense for us to test each other. I personally mean, let's calculate the value of the things in your main room and the west room. How much food do you need in exchange?"
Pioneer just opened the door of the Westinghouse. Liang Xiaonan and Zhou Yan were "my grass". Those who didn't know thought he had robbed a supply and marketing cooperative.
Toothbrush, spearmint toothpaste, bar soap, soap, Daqianmen cigarettes, Jinshajiang cigarettes, Chuncheng cigarettes, table tennis, volleyball, gauze, harmonica, poker, pins, pen water, sewing needles...
More complete and richer than the supply and marketing cooperatives, Liang Xiaonan also saw three or four brand new large fishing nets and several rolls of plastic sheeting.
This is a good thing. She wants to raise fish, but fishing nets are not easy to buy, and there is no such good nylon thread. Plastic sheeting is also a good thing. The wheat and corn planted have more uses for plastic sheeting.
"You count all the things in the Westinghouse as a price, and I will help you deal with the things in the main room. We count 200 catties of potatoes in that room, and the Westinghouse..."
Except for fishing nets and plastic sheeting, she doesn't really want Westinghouse, but if she doesn't, Pioneer will be suspicious.
Liang Xiaonan picked part of a room full of supplies in Westinghouse. He asked for 1,000 catties of potatoes, plus 500 yuan.
The items in these two houses have been agreed, a total of 1,700 catties of potatoes will be traded here in three days.
After talking here, Zhou Yan said to Pioneer: "If you have a connection, take me to see Rong Yongtai's things. If you can find good things, I will give you extra rewards."
Pioneer shook his head: "Rong Yongtai's collections are all destroyed!"
"Please contact me again, even one item is fine. If you can find it, we can discuss it, and if you don't have it, let it go."
Pioneer looked at them several times: "Then I'm afraid you will be disappointed, his things are really gone."
Liang Xiaonan now understands a little bit, Zhou Yan came here today, the things in the two rooms are not his purpose, he wants "Rong Yongtai's things".
Before leaving, to show their sincerity, Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan left half a basket of potatoes to Xianfeng, and Xianfeng also said happily to Liang Xiaonan: "You can take whatever you want."
Liang Xiaonan was picking things in the West Room, Pioneer watched vigilantly, and finally Liang Xiaonan took 30 packs of cigarettes and two packs of sugar.
When the two of them were going out, Pioneer saw them going out without looking back, followed them a few steps up, and said in a low voice, "You guys have to come on time, it's best to be early, these things may not be kept at any time."
The corners of Zhou Yan's lips curled up, and he said nonchalantly, "Since you are worried, you can find someone else to exchange. My things are easy to sell, and yours are not difficult to get."
Pioneer immediately said: "No, no, I can wait. Well, if only you could pull away today!"
The three of them were talking, when they heard a commotion outside, and a group of footsteps came clattering.
Pioneer's face changed drastically: "Hurry up, go through the back door."
He pointed to the corner door at the back, locked the front door in a panic and ran out.
