Siheyuan: the beginning is a sick child

The village chief was a thin old man, holding a pipe in his hand, and came to the car with a flattering smile.

"Director Lin, I'm Niu Bao, the village head here. I don't know what you are doing here in this remote village of ours?"

Lin Mancang is wearing a Chinese tunic suit and cowhide shoes today, in the attire of a national cadre.

He chuckled: "We are here to go to the countryside to collect things."

"Excuse me, what do you accept?" Niu Bao asked.

"Hehe, as long as it is an old item, it will be accepted." Lin Mancang said.

Niu Bao chuckled: "Director Lin, these things are being searched everywhere now, and if they are found, they are all destroyed. How can there be any old things?"

While talking, Niu Bao also asked the surrounding people: "Do you think so?"

"Yes."

"Who would dare to keep the old things now?"

"It's already smashed to pieces and rotten."

"Now I can't even eat, what old things are left, those things are worth eating or drinking."

……

Everyone was talking about it, anyway, there were no old objects in the house.

Who is Lin Mancang, of course he knows their worries.

What if someone has an old object, really takes it out, and is caught as a model?
Isn't that why the fox didn't catch it and made a fuss instead?
"Hehe, I know everyone's concerns. In fact, I came to collect old things to destroy them." Lin Mancang said with a smile, very amiable.

"?..." Everyone looked at Lin Mancang.

"What we are afraid of is that the masses have concerns, so we take the initiative to collect them. The purpose is to completely destroy these things."

"Don't be afraid, everyone. I'm here on behalf of the public. This time I'm collecting old things, not forcing everyone to take them out."

"I have a lot of supplies in this car. We want to exchange them from everyone and then destroy them."

The masses look at me and I look at you, and they don't believe it.

The place was quiet.

"What you said is true?" At this moment, a sloppy old man asked.

"Of course it's true. I'm a cadre anyway. How could I deceive our masses? If you don't believe me, try it." Lin Mancang knew that as long as there was someone in the lead, the matter would be easy to handle.

"Director Lin, don't listen to him, he is just an old bachelor, his family is poor, and he doesn't have any old things." Village head Niu Bao said immediately.

"Village chief, I don't care. I can't eat or drink every day. Even if I was arrested today, I will admit it. It happens to be a public meal."

The old man said, turned around and ran home.

His house happened to be at the head of the village, in a dilapidated courtyard.

In front of so many people, the village chief couldn't stop him.

Moreover, everyone actually wanted to use the old bachelor to see if Lin Mancang really wanted to exchange things for old things.

Soon, the old bachelor came out from home.

What he took out turned out to be two large strings of copper coins, all of which were Guangxu Tongbao.

When the people around saw that he was holding this, they couldn't help laughing.

After all, there are still a lot of this kind of copper coins in the countryside.

Little girls in the countryside play shuttlecock, and the support of the shuttlecock is basically made of copper coins.

It cannot be said that every household has it, and many families also have it in clusters.

This old bachelor, it seems that he really doesn't have any other old things.

"Does this count?" The old bachelor directly handed the copper coin to Lin Mancang.

"Forget it." Lin Mancang took the copper coins and threw them directly into the truck. Then, he gave the old bachelor ten big white steamed buns with special second powder.

"My God, this thing can be eaten in exchange for steamed buns."

"I have them at home too."

"Sure enough, something can be changed."

"Gousheng, hurry up and bring all the copper coins at home, we can eat big white steamed buns today."

"Director Lin, do you accept the old furniture?"

"Do you want to take the vase?"

"Do you accept ancient paintings?"

"I still have walnuts that have been plated at home. Do you want to accept them?"

……

Everyone saw that things could be exchanged, so two strings of broken copper coins could be exchanged for ten big white steamed buns. Wouldn't it be possible to exchange more for other things?
Therefore, the villagers immediately became interested, some ran home to get things, and some chattered here.

Even the head of Niubao Village was thinking about whether to take out the old things at home and exchange them for something to eat.

"Accept, accept, old furniture is better, but I want to check and accept, sycamore, pagoda, and Ailanthus, no matter how old it is, don't take it from me, it's not old." Lin Mancang reminded.

When the villagers heard that they would accept everything, they rushed home, fearing that they would be too late to exchange anything.

After all, materials in this era are too scarce, especially food.

Some people can't eat a big white steamed bun all year round.

At this moment, watching the old bachelor's efforts for a while, two big white steamed buns have been made, and they are all salivating.

Seeing that the villagers ran home, Jianshe reminded Lin Mancang: "Brother, this copper coin is worthless, why do we need it?"

"It's worthless now, but it won't be so in the future. These things will become less and less in the future." Lin Mancang said with a smile.

"Ok."

Looking at the truckload of things, Zhang Jianshe admired Lin Mancang very much.

Lin Mancang asked him to drive the car out, and then let him go for a stroll outside the city, saying he would come back in half an hour.

He didn't know what Lin Mancang was going to do, but since Brother Mancang said it, he had to listen.

Unexpectedly, after walking for half an hour and returning, the truck was already loaded with half a truckload of things, basically food.

Steamed buns, meat, noodles, oil, wine, it can be said that everything is available.

Zhang Jianshe was so shocked that he almost fainted.

Even the factory manager can't get these things.

Zhang Jianshe asked Lin Mancang where these things came from.

Lin Mancang said that it was arranged by the leader and told him not to intervene too much. Zhang Jianshe heard it and didn't ask any more questions.

Anyway, it's enough to eat and drink with Brother Mancang, and it's still so free.

"Comrade Lin, do you think this bedside table in our house is an old thing?" A family brought a bedside table with a truck.

It was black and black and looked very old.

"Let me see." Lin Mancang went over and weighed the weight first.

so heavy!
Should be good stuff.

But I can't take a closer look here.

"to make."

"What can that give us?" The old man asked with bright eyes.

"Five catties of pork, plus twenty steamed buns." Lin Mancang said.

"Five catties of pork? Really?" The old man was about to bleed out. If it wasn't because it was a bedside table that could hold clothes or something, it would have been searched by those people long ago.

Unexpectedly, today, five catties of pork can be exchanged for twenty steamed buns, which is simply too valuable.

"Of course it's true, Jianshe, give the pork and steamed buns to uncle."

"Okay, brother." Jianshe immediately gave the things to the old man.

The old man's family helped carry the cabinet to the truck.

"Director Lin, take a look at this porcelain vase in my house. It was passed down from our ancestors, but it was buried in the ground and it was a bit dirty." An old lady brought a porcelain vase.

Lin Mancang looked at the porcelain vase and felt that it was a good thing, but he was not an expert in cultural relics and antiques, he didn't know how to do it, and he didn't know how to identify it.

But as far as this thing is concerned, even if it is a counterfeit, it must be something from the Republic of China, and it will not suffer a loss if you accept it.

Ugh!
It would be nice to have the knowledge to identify cultural relics and antiques.

Just as Lin Mancang had this idea, suddenly, the super face-slapping system prompted: "The system can provide knowledge to identify cultural relics and antiques, and it needs to consume [-] points of resentment."

This system is awesome, you can do whatever you want.

Exchange it for me.

Ding Dong!

Consume 5000 grievance points in exchange for [-] years of cultural relics and antique identification skills, and the remaining grievance points in the system are [-] points.

Lin Mancang changed too many things today, and only [-] points of resentment were left.

However, following the system's prompt, a wave of energy directly entered Lin Mancang's brain.

Immediately, Lin Mancang felt as if he had suddenly become a knowledgeable expert in cultural relics and antiques.
