Before finding Liu Xiaoyue, Chen Yiyang hurried to the street market on his little scooter to hunt for antiques.
The street markets in Shancheng are quite different from those in Jin City and West Capital City.
Here, the street market feels more like a second-hand trading market, with a variety of miscellaneous items being sold.
In Jin City and West Capital, people imdiately think of antiques from the Han and Tang Dynasties.
However, in Shancheng, modern-era artifacts are more common.
Various old newspapers, old currency, old furniture.
Mostly from the Republic to decades ago, it’s rare to see artifacts from the Ming Dynasty or earlier periods.
Chen Yiyang went to the stall ntioned in the intel.
The vendor primarily sold various antique furniture, mostly dating from around the Republic era.
Chen Yiyang found the small cabinet he wanted to buy.
It was a cabinet only half an arm’s height, probably intended for storing small tabletop items.
The cabinet seed to be made during the Republic period; although it was crafted ticulously, such Republic-era furniture is so common now that they generally don’t fetch high prices.
Chen Yiyang haggled with the stall owner and bought the cabinet for six hundred yuan.
Then he tossed the cabinet into his scooter’s storage box and drove back to his apartnt.
Originally, he planned to go to the factory to find Liu Xiaoyue.
But once he got ho, laziness kicked in, and he didn’t want to head out again.
So he just called Liu Xiaoyue to co to his apartnt.
He placed the newly bought cabinet on the table and studied it for a while. He found that by turning the cabinet upside down and removing a panel, he could see a round hole.
Chen Yiyang stuck a toothpick into it.
The back panel of the cabinet fell off imdiately.
The chanism was quite simple and crude.
Chen Yiyang pulled out the back panel, revealing ten silver coins hidden behind it.
These ten silver coins differed from the Yuan Datong or foreign silver coins commonly seen in the market; they were minted by the military governnt that controlled Sichuan back then.
Hence, the circulation range was limited, and there were very few of them left.
The front side of the silver coins said "Sichuan Silver Coin" and "Military Governnt Minted."
The back side had a large traditional Chinese character in the center, with "Year One of the Republic of China" written above.
The coins were well-preserved and extrely rare.
Their value would definitely be high.
Chen Yiyang planned to send these silver coins back to Jin City to be handled by his pawnshop.
Nowadays, under Yang Yu’s leadership, business at the Shabby House Inn was booming.
Last ti, the Wu Changshuo inkstone returned by Old Yu was sold for a million two hundred thousand yuan after finding a buyer.
Just as Chen Yiyang finished putting away the silver coins, Liu Xiaoyue arrived.
"Co in and have a seat."
Chen Yiyang casually reassembled the Republic-era cabinet.
Liu Xiaoyue entered the house nervously and sat opposite Chen Yiyang.
Being called to the boss’s ho this late at night, she was unsure of Chen Yiyang’s intentions.
Besides, she’s not particularly attractive.
But as soon as Chen Yiyang explained why he asked her over, Liu Xiaoyue relaxed.
Talking work; she’s good at that.
"We’ve been discussing whether we should hire a host to promote our products."
"Is the equipnt for upgrading the factory already here?" Chen Yiyang was sowhat surprised.
"No, we borrowed a machine to first try making samples.
We can’t wait for the machines to arrive to start making samples for product testing.
For the factory, machines lying idle is losing money every day. They’d rather earn less or even take a loss than have machines stop."
"That’s true." Chen Yiyang nodded.
Earlier, when he followed Yang Chengru to the park, the factory owners were so anxious because they couldn’t find buyers even though the factories were operating at a loss, rendering the machines idle.
Liu Xiaoyue didn’t understand why Chen Yiyang wanted to venture into product promotion while buying an educational institution for transformation.
However, most rich second generations really think differently, and Liu Xiaoyue didn’t dare to ask for specific reasons.
She just ntioned she’d contact so previous Han Nibai partners to get so samples, trying to sell them with help from Western teachers.
With this matter settled.
Chen Yiyang was ready to play so gas and sleep.
Just then, soone knocked on his apartnt door again.
Chen Yiyang impatiently got up to open the door and found a lady in leather standing outside.
"Why did you co over?" said Chen Yiyang, greeting her in his pajamas.
"Feeling bored, I wanted to find soone to hang out with. Are you going to sleep?"
"No, I was just about to head out." Chen Yiyang perked up.
"Wait a bit while I change clothes."
After putting on his clothes, Chen Yiyang followed the leather girl downstairs.
In Shancheng, Chen Yiyang was only familiar with the leather girl, so he was quite pleased she ca to find him for an outing.
The leather girl’s motorcycle was parked down the block.
Instinctively, Chen Yiyang took out the key for his own scooter, thinking to ride his own.
Suddenly he realized, there’s a backseat to sit on, a waist to hold.
Why ride solo?
But just before he returned his keys, the leather girl excitedly asked, "Did you get a scooter too?"
"Yes." Chen Yiyang reluctantly replied, "Just bought it."
"Perfect, let’s take the motorcycle for a spin."
At this point, there’s no other choice.
Under the glow of streetlights, they found a sparsely populated road.
They raced down the highway riding the motorcycle.
But you have to admit, the night view of Shancheng is top-notch.
Not to ntion the famous Hongya Cave, other places are equally impressive.
Add to that the river view, speeding on the motorcycle gives quite a mixed feeling of ga and reality.
When the two were tired of riding, they happened to pass by a night market.
They decided to sit down at a beer stall and have so barbecue.
Nights in Shancheng are quite lively and extensive. No need to worry about finding a place to eat at midnight.
They were halfway through their barbecue.
Suddenly, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl ca out crying from the shop.
The shop owner soon chased after her.
"It’s so late, and you’re still gaming? You only know how to play gas all day, neglecting studies. Are you planning to take over my shabby stall when you grow up?"
"Then give my phone first, I promise to study hard afterwards."
"Confiscated. You’re not allowed to play gas anymore!"
"How will I pay for food at school then?"
"I’ll give you cash!"
"What if I miss you and want to call you?"
"Borrow a phone from your teacher. I’ll talk to your teacher and have them lend you a phone."
"Then, give my phone first. I’ll delete the gas on it."
"There’s no point deleting gas when I’m not giving you the phone. You say you don’t spend money in gas, but look at you so thin, must’ve spent al money on gas!"
The shop owner, talking all the while, approached Chen Yiyang and the leather-clad girl with the girl’s phone.
"Can you both help see how much money my girl spent in the ga."
"I happen to be playing this ga too, let have a look." The leather-clad girl took the phone with interest and opened the ga icon.
Then she suddenly fell silent.
"What’s wrong?" Chen Yiyang asked with concern.
"Nothing." The leather-clad girl returned the phone to the shop owner.
"Boss, she hasn’t spent any money on the ga."
"That’s good, thanks a lot." The boss felt relieved knowing his girl hadn’t spent money on the ga and took the phone back.
But the truth was evidently different.
The girl, hearing the leather-clad girl say she hadn’t spent money, gave her a grateful look.
But the leather-clad girl didn’t return her gaze and continued drinking her beer silently.
"Do you think I’m quite silly?" The leather-clad girl suddenly asked.
"I don’t think it’s too bad." Chen Yiyang chose not to speak. Actually, he thought she was quite silly.
What era is this? Still believing in online relationships.
"That girl just now, she’s my online girlfriend."
"What?" Chen Yiyang was baffled.
"I checked the account just monts ago; it’s her ga account. No wonder she’s scared of video chats. Probably using voice changers during gaming sotis."
Six.
Chen Yiyang felt his head buzzing.
It’s one thing to be deceived in an online relationship.
Seeing soone in person in such a setting was another.
If it weren’t for the strange atmosphere, Chen Yiyang would have liked to interview the leather-clad girl about her feelings after discovering her online partner is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl.
At least she wasn’t emotionally conned by a man.
"Let’s go ho," the leather-clad girl stood up.
Chen Yiyang saw that the girl had drunk a lot of beer.
Riding a motorcycle in this state, it was really lucky not to get into trouble.
So Chen Yiyang persuaded the leather-clad girl. They left the motorcycle behind and booked a ride-sharing car directly to Chen Yiyang’s apartnt.
"You sleep in the guest room tonight," Chen Yiyang said, leading the leather-clad girl ho and setting up a bed for her.
"Are you kind of disgusted with ?"
While Chen Yiyang was busy tidying the bed, the leather-clad girl’s voice softly ca from behind.
"Absolutely not." Chen Yiyang was about to turn around, but the next thing he knew, he was tackled onto the bed by the leather-clad girl.
Well.
Chen Yiyang had been in Shancheng for days resisting temptations; how could he hold back?
Next morning, Chen Yiyang woke up and looked at the leather-clad girl beside him.
Her figure was indeed good, no wonder she liked wearing leather jackets.
But speaking of which, Chen Yiyang still didn’t know the leather-clad girl’s na.
He slept in such a daze.
They slept in the guest room last night, waking up this morning in the master bedroom.
Having the dry and wet area separated was nice; the bedding was still dry, tempting Chen Yiyang for another round.
But they weren’t familiar yet, it wouldn’t be right to wake her when she was sleeping well.
So he took out his phone first to check the news for today.
